Honkai, But I Have Too Many Mods

"It's precisely because I exercise that I can carry you right now!"

If I hadn't been training these past few days, the me from before wouldn't have been able to pick Guinaifen up and run at full speed like this.

Speaking of which, this was Liu Bai's first time carrying a girl.

What was that saying again?

Fragrant, soft...

"Sigh... my first time is gone just like that."

"Are you going to sigh about this too? I haven't even sighed yet—and you're already smiling!"

Guinaifen somehow understood what Liu Bai was sighing about.

"Here they come! The threads!"

"I say, you two, haven't you gone a bit overboard?"

Ten minutes later, Natasha had given all the Dormant Spirit Deathless present a dose of medicine.

"Hah... it's all the boss's fault for his scattered thoughts."

Guinaifen patted Liu Bai's back to help him breathe while complaining.

"But boss, you were really cool just now."

If only your mouth wasn't stitched shut, you'd be even cooler.

[Guinaifen Affection: 4044]

"Hah... I feel like I just ran the equivalent of a lifetime of exercise..."

Liu Bai was genuinely out of breath.

"I can tell, you clearly don't exercise at all." Natasha could see at a glance that Liu Bai still had energy left, but the man didn't know how to breathe properly.

To put it more directly, the guy was out of breath.

Making such a basic mistake really showed he was a pampered, rich boss.

"Nonsense, the most exercise I've ever done before this was the one-kilometer run back in my school days."

Liu Bai retorted unhappily.

Who knew he'd end up in a situation like this?

"I'll train you properly when I get the chance."

Natasha smiled as she looked at Liu Bai, who was bent over and gasping for air, then turned her gaze to the Dormant Spirit Deathless lined up as neatly as soldiers.

[Honkai Affection: -99-97]

Just like last time, after administering the medicine, the Honkai's affection also increased, not just for the deathless who received it.

It was just a strange increase.

"And what about them? There are forty-one in total."

"Strip them and kill them—oh right, how much medicine did you use?"

"Eight bottles."

Natasha's principle was frugality; she wouldn't use more than necessary.

"Less than I imagined..." After catching his breath for a while, Liu Bai felt a bit better and ordered the Dormant Spirit Deathless to take off their clothes.

The Dormant Spirit Deathless had relatively high intelligence compared to ordinary deathless, so they easily understood Liu Bai's meaning and began to undress.

"...You brat, you're quite the pervert."

Chapter 39: Deathless Organs Cannot Be Used

[Dormant Spirit Deathless Summon Ticket (One-time Use) *20]

[Nether Spirit Deathless Summon Ticket (One-time Use) *20]

[Annihilation Dormant Spirit Summon Ticket (One-time Use) *1]

"...Why is there nothing else?"

Liu Bai was a bit stunned looking at the system's drop notification.

What was the meaning of giving him only summon tickets in a material dungeon?

"?" Natasha gave Liu Bai a strange look upon hearing this. "You stripped them all, what else do you want? Let me tell you beforehand, humans can't use deathless organs, and we don't have the technology to extract them."

Liu Bai's mouth twitched at her words... What a strange misunderstanding.

Wait... could it be that stripping them caused the materials to not drop normally?

Because there was nothing left on them... No, is it really that realistic?

Still, summon tickets... it wasn't a complete loss.

Dormant Spirit Deathless and Nether Spirit Deathless are both auxiliary mages with stats of Strength 2, Constitution 4, and Agility 1.

Dormant Spirit Deathless units lean towards buffs, while Nether Spirit Deathless units lean towards debuffs.

The Annihilation Dormant Spirit, on the other hand, is an all-around mage with 3 Strength, 6 Vitality, and 1 Agility.

Speaking of which... can the monsters summoned by these summon tickets have their clothes stripped again?

Liu Bai used a Dormant Spirit Deathless summon ticket, and instantly a pair of large, floating white legs appeared beside him.

"Don't be nervous," Liu Bai called out to Natasha and Guinaifen, who were preparing to attack.

"I summoned her, just doing an experiment."

Liu Bai gestured again for the Dormant Spirit Deathless to take off her clothes.

"...This kid is getting more and more like a pervert the more I look at him," Natasha couldn't help but complain.

"Can't deny that."

Although they had witnessed their boss's cool side this time, this scene of him making someone take off their clothes just couldn't be seen as cool.

Or rather, his glorious image was completely ruined.

"It won't work."

Liu Bai took a look at the clothes and immediately had the Dormant Spirit Deathless put them back on.

The summoned clothing had "Temporary" and a countdown timer before its name. It was obvious they couldn't be used for real—unless they were trying to scam people.

"Give me some healing, and go easy."

Since he had already summoned her, Liu Bai decided to experiment with something else.

—Then, the summoned "Big White Legs" tilted her head in confusion, and then descended to his level, supporting her chest.

"Pervert."

"What a pervert."

"Hey! What's it to you?!"

Liu Bai angrily rebuked the two people behind him who were making sarcastic remarks, and at the same time, he realized his own problem.

"Ahem, not 'milk,' but 'healing.' Give me a small healing."

This time, "Big White Legs" didn't hesitate. A golden magic circle appeared on the ground around her.

Liu Bai saw a new buff appear in his status bar.

[Dark Energy Prayer: During the Dormant Spirit Deathless's channeling period, allied characters within the magic circle will recover 1% of the Dormant Spirit Deathless's HP per second. This skill can stack.]

What a great skill.

Liu Bai's eyes lit up. There was no incompatibility due to Honkai energy, as he had expected.

After confirming this, Liu Bai signaled for the Dormant Spirit Deathless to turn off the skill.

The drawback of this skill was its low growth potential, as 1% of the Dormant Spirit Deathless's HP wasn't much for high-level play.

But fortunately, it could stack.

As for the Dormant Spirit Deathless being unable to move during channeling, that was a minor issue that could be compensated for with manual control.

After all, as a mage, the Dormant Spirit series had excellent life-saving skills like phasing.

"Liu Bai, thanks."

After the test, Natasha suddenly said this to Liu Bai.

"?" Liu Bai looked at her, completely bewildered.

Natasha truly felt that her chastity had been preserved thanks to Liu Bai's mercy.

"I feel like I've been insulted," Liu Bai said, very displeased.

But...

Forget it.

Natasha was the powerhouse of this operation, after all.

Without Natasha, Liu Bai wouldn't have dared to open the Dormant Spirit Deathless instance.

"You're saying Little White Mouse told you to sell it?" Mobius looked at Natasha with suspicion.

"Yes, you can check the message Liu Bai sent."

"Alright, let me see... that series of Dormant Spirit Deathless, do they have a branch in our Sky Dome Zone?"

Natasha didn't speak—she also didn't know how Liu Bai managed to summon so many Dormant Spirit Deathless.

Yes, summon.

Although Natasha knew nothing, before the Dormant Spirit Deathless appeared, Liu Bai had made a grasping motion. Now that she thought about it, it should have been a summon.

But there must be some limitations, otherwise, being able to summon a group of Deathless at any time would be too terrifying.

...Considering Liu Bai's actions of taking them around today, it might be more like "releasing something that already existed"?

Natasha couldn't help but shake her head at the absurdity of the guess.

Meanwhile, Mobius had clearly asked casually and had no intention of digging deeper.

"Ten million... tsk, isn't this kid making money too fast?"

Mobius felt a little unhappy.

"..."

Natasha also fell silent.

Why didn't I ever make this much before!

Okay, I couldn't have stripped this many clothes off completely before.

As for materials, complete ones are two grades higher than incomplete ones.

And when capturing deathless alive, the ones captured in large numbers were low-level fodder, and it also required the organization's help. Furthermore, under normal carrying capacity, Natasha could at most carry one deathless under each arm—and that was in the most ideal situation; she couldn't bring back any more.

Moreover, the resistance during the capture process would also damage the integrity of the materials.

It wasn't a normal situation for someone like Liu Bai to encounter a group of minor elites upon meeting them and strip them completely intact.

"Forget it. It's a good thing the little white mouse is capable. I'll accept the items, and I'll transfer the money later. Tell him these are enough for my research, and next time, get something new."

Mobius's straightforwardness far exceeded Natasha's imagination; she didn't even ask how Liu Bai managed it.

World Serpent... is it really my home?

"...Speaking of which, has Jackal woken up?"

After sighing, Natasha inquired about Jackal.

"She's awake. She's currently acting like a melancholic, artistic young woman."

Mobius pouted.
