Honkai, But I Have Too Many Mods

Guinaifen glanced behind Liu Bai, her expression growing even stranger. "Be careful... those two... uh, monster ladies, are they about to pin you down?"

"Huh?"

Chapter 10: Capturing Kiana?

"They... they got away."

Guinaifen wiped the sweat from her face and gently set Liu Bai down from her shoulder.

"Boss, your chastity was almost compromised just now."

"No, I mean, why did we have to run?"

Liu Bai sat on the ground, looking bewildered.

"They didn't have any weapons or armor, wasn't that the perfect opportunity to strike?"

Guinaifen: "..."

To strip someone of their clothes and then beat them to death; even if they were monsters, it was still too much...

Especially since Guinaifen only rationally recognized them as monsters. Emotionally... they were a bit like young girls who had been tricked out of their money and their virtue by Liu Bai.

In their world, someone like Liu Bai would be the villain!

"Wasn't I trying to protect your chastity, boss?"

"..."

Liu Bai stared at Guinaifen speechlessly.

Alright, she couldn't deny it. If Guinaifen hadn't been there, Liu Bai would have truly been dealt with by those two Deathless.

Hmm... if he exchanged bodily fluids with Deathless, he'd definitely be infected with Honkai, right?

But besides himself, who else would ever encounter being forced by Deathless?

"...But speaking of which, weren't those two still monsters?" Guinaifen belatedly realized some issues. "Uh... should we go back and finish them off?"

"No need, they've probably reset."

Liu Bai brushed the dust off his pants and stood up from the ground.

As a random dungeon in the game, there was no such thing as monsters entering "reality." As long as the player, Liu Bai, moved a certain distance away, they would disengage from combat.

That fabricated calyx should have already been refreshed.

"Let's go, let's go, let's find the next one."

Liu Bai, seeing the growing crowd of onlookers surrounding him and Guinaifen, waved to her.

...Thankfully, he had stored the scythe and clothes in his flask beforehand.

Including the trial version of the spirit medicine in his hand, he had three bottles left, enough to strip... cough, "collect" three more sets.

Night was falling.

"Welcome back, Mr. Liu Bai."

At the entrance of Kamiya Corp, Gray Serpent spoke in a hoarse voice.

"It seems you've kept your promise."

"Gray Serpent, do you guys accept Honkai materials?" Liu Bai got straight to the point.

Although Honkai materials were precious, not everyone bought them. Only the three main factions would purchase these materials.

"Honkai? Where did you learn that word? Have you already come into contact with Honkai?"

Gray Serpent's tone held a hint of surprise.

Clearly, even he hadn't expected that Liu Bai, an alien newcomer, would come into contact with Honkai on his very first day on Earth.

And judging by his words, it seemed he had even fought a battle and obtained something.

Was this what they called bad luck... Gray Serpent found it difficult to comment. He could only say it wasn't surprising that this person's spaceship had crashed.

Gray Serpent never imagined that someone would treat Honkai Deathless as a way to make money.

"What do you think?" Liu Bai spread his hands. "So, do you buy them?"

"...Our World Serpent is an organization that researches this very field." Gray Serpent spoke slowly after a moment of thought.

Forget it. After all, anyone who landed on this land couldn't possibly avoid dealing with Honkai. Now, it actually saved him the trouble of explaining later.

"If you have obtained materials rich in Honkai energy, we would be very happy to purchase them—of course, I do not recommend you fight Honkai, and the Honored Master also does not wish to see you meet any accidents. As for the value of the materials... you can have the Honored Master judge them."

"Thanks."

Liu Bai nodded and led Guinaifen towards the hall where Mobius was.

At the entrance of the hall, before they even entered, Liu Bai and Guinaifen could hear Mobius's scolding from inside.

"Raven, your capture mission has failed again. Are Schicksal's B-rank Valkyries really that difficult to deal with?"

"I am very sorry, Honored Master... this operation was obstructed by Schicksal's headquarters."

"Oh? Schicksal HQ? Which unit? Blade of the Unbroken? Or the Vanguard?"

"Rita leads the Blade of the Unbroken, they should be here in our Sky-Dome district to search for Liu Bai."

/

"Tsk… bad timing, isn't it? Schicksal's reach is too long," Mobius's tone in the hall seemed to ease slightly.

"Never mind, the Blade of the Unbroken will leave on their own in a few days. Raven, I'll give you one last chance. Within a week, bring me that little girl named Kiana, understand?" "Understood."

Beep.

It was rather coincidental. Whether it was Liu Bai or Guinaifen, their wristbands happened to match the door's induction device, and the door opened with a click.

"Hm?" The mature woman in the black dress, seated in the main seat, glanced at Liu Bai and her tone softened considerably, her previous lazy expression returning to her face. "I thought it was someone else. Is that you, little white mouse? You're back? How does it feel on the new planet? What brings you to me?"

Raven: "……" Is your gentle tone being used in the wrong place! I'm your subordinate! Those two are the little white mice! Don't make it sound like I'm the little white mouse and they're your confidantes! It was fortunate that Mobius was unaware of Raven's internal complaints, otherwise, she would have let Raven know that among the little white mice, there were ordinary ones worth a few bucks, but also tens of thousands that had been specially cultivated or genetically modified.

"…Am I interrupting?"

Liu Bai glanced at Mobius lounging lazily in the main seat and Raven, who had just stood up, her cold expression carrying a hint of grievance.

He felt like he had just overheard something rather significant.

"It's nothing major," Mobius waved her hands lightly, signaling Liu Bai not to mind. "Is there something you need? Or are you just here to chat?"

Raven's grievance, hidden within her cold expression, intensified by another three parts. It was my "last chance"! Isn't that a major issue? My esteemed Lord! Even if I don't have merit, I've at least put in the effort! Liu Bai's expression was also quite subtle. If he hadn't heard about "Kiana," "Rita," and the "Blade of the Unbroken," he might have just pretended he hadn't heard anything.

But since he had heard… he was very curious. Capturing Kiana? And with this lineup. Was this a repeat of the Sky-Dome City storyline?

But something felt off. After all, although this was a real world, it wasn't the real Honkai world. The more identical it was, the more wrong it felt.

"Ahem, it's like this. I found some Honkai materials, and Gray Serpent said you might buy them."

"Mhm…? You've already come into contact with Honkai so quickly? Remember to protect yourself, little white mouse~"

Mobius was the complete opposite of Gray Serpent. Her tone lacked much concern, instead filled with curiosity, completely unbothered by Liu Bai's contact with Honkai.

"Then take them out and let me see what you've found, little white mouse~"

Chapter 11: A Beautiful Future Beckons

"This is really… a little frightening…"

Mobius had initially thought Liu Bai had just picked up something like a broken arrowhead, but she couldn't sit still as she looked at the complete Deathless materials Liu Bai produced.

"Raven, look at him, and then look at you… the complete scythe of the Glacial Scythe."

Mobius had already gotten up and walked down the steps, her finger tracing the blade of the scythe with fascination.

"Last time I asked you to capture one alive, you refused to go no matter what."

"Killing and capturing alive are two different things…" Raven's mouth twitched as she mentioned this. Other Deathless were fine, but the risk of capturing a Glacial Scythe alive was too great. Raven was unwilling to test out control skills with her own body.

"And it's not an ordinary Glacial Scythe. Hmm… it feels like a Deathless that Honkai has paid special attention to."

Mobius was now like a cat that had smelled a can of fish, already analyzing the type of "can."

"The condition is complete, it doesn't look like material from a major battle at all… Tsk, besides this, hmm, and the longbow of the Divine Knight Deathless, and the Deathless armor…"

The spoils from the Divine Knight Deathless were obtained by Liu Bai using the leftover Elixir of Love.

Raven chose to ignore Mobius's subtle taunts. Anyway, she would never go and capture one… As for how Liu Bai obtained these materials, that was his own capability. Yes, that's right, neither Mobius, who was speaking, nor Raven, who was listening, took the first half of the sentence to heart – Honkai Beasts weren't charities, how could one obtain their materials without fighting?

"Hey, kid."

Mobius's tone suddenly turned serious as she pointed at Liu Bai.

"What is this thing?"

Mobius pinched a small piece of cloth between her fingers.

Liu Bai glanced at it and replied honestly, "Underwear."

"Huh?"

"It's... the Deathless's underwear, Dr. Mobius, didn't you know?"

"Deathless... underwear."

Mobius fell silent, looking at the small white piece of cloth in her hand.

Underwear... underwear...

Do Deathless wear underwear too?

This was the first time she had discovered such a thing.

Could it be some extremely rare material?

It was indeed very resilient when pulled, and the Honkai energy seemed quite abundant.

"Hmm... alright, underwear it is."

Mobius didn't dwell on it too much.

She decided that her next research would be on the method of creating Deathless underwear.

"I'll give you a price for these things, Liu Bai. The materials for the Glacial Scythe are quite valuable. For the rest, I'll round it up for you, two hundred fifty."

"Huh?"

"Two million five hundred thousand," Mobius rolled her eyes. "Alright, alright, you can go back. I'll have Gray Serpent open an account for you tomorrow and transfer the money."
