Chapter 158

"Ah! My Mei!"

A groundhog-like scream.

Just like the Seele heard back then, a scream that could circle the Sea of Quantum for three days and three nights without weakening. It's happened again, and it was created by the same person.

"Ah..."

Seele rested her chin on her hands, looking at Kevin's screams as if she were squatting on the ground.

"If you so desperately want to stand by Mei's side," Seele said regretfully, "Why didn't you try a little harder?"

"Maybe if you try a little harder, we can get out of here."

"But then again," Seele said, looking at Mei who was trying to crack the code, "Can Mei really crack it?"

"This is the latest encryption method for adversity quotient."

"Hmph." Kevin couldn't help but snort coldly upon hearing Seele's doubts about MEI. As MEI's sycophant, he saw MEI as omnipotent.

"This level of encryption," Kevin said, "Though I can't understand it at all."

"But for MEI, this is really too childish."

"She was the most outstanding doctor in our era."

How excellent are they?

Seele didn't know, but she at least knew that Doctor Mei had cured Rosaliya and Liliya. And not only cured them, but also doubled their destructive power.

"Yes, that's true from a biological point of view," Seele admitted. "It feels like the maintenance costs for the Hyperion this month are..."

"It'll have to double again."

That's it!

Right now.

MEI was able to keep those two incredibly destructive individuals in check on the Hyperion, but now that MEI is on a mission, Seele simply can't bear to look at the Hyperion now.

Hopefully, Otto will see the next round of maintenance costs by then.

My blood pressure was skyrocketing.

"It seems like MEI is stumped right now," Seele said, looking at MEI who appeared to be confused.

"Impossible," Kevin said. "How could this level of encryption possibly be difficult to pass?"

It really stumped me.

"Can't it be cracked?" Bronya asked from the side.

"Yes, it's possible," MEI said, stroking his chin. "It's just a matter of time."

It's just a matter of time, and that's the biggest problem.

The new encryption based on the reverse quotient has indeed caused some minor trouble for MEI, but it's not completely unbreakable. However, the biggest problem now is that there isn't enough time.

Even if you play very fast, there's not much time left.

They must get into the control room as soon as possible, or all their efforts will be in vain.

"Hmm." MEI looked at it for a while and said, "I think this is the only way."

What's the only option?

Seele was in the Sea of Quantum, couldn't stand it any longer and asked, "Um... are you sure that Sister Mei doesn't have any problems with her aesthetic sense?"

"Why does she always like assembling these weird things that look like junk..."

"High tech?"

"Ah... this..." Kevin scratched his head, he really didn't know.

MEI is at it again, showcasing her unscientific DIY skills by disassembling equipment. Her destructive power is comparable to Rosaliya and Liliya. You have no idea how she even manages to take these things apart.

Anyway, she just demolished it.

And it was dismantled by hand!

Then it was disassembled and reassembled by hand; all the raw materials came from the door's sensor-operated combination lock device. Well, to be precise, it was a control panel.

Strictly speaking, it's not really a door lock.

Disassemble and reassemble.

Then...

This thing actually works.

"Anyway, my Mei is really amazing," Kevin said smugly. "See? I told you this wouldn't be a problem for her. It really wasn't!"

"Hmm, it does look pretty impressive."

Seele looked at MEI's unscientific handiwork.

She dismantled the gate's control panel, then used it to assemble an unknown device that in turn hacked into the gate's main control program and gained control.

Then the door was opened.

Besides saying "awesome" and "666," there really isn't any other way to describe it.

"So you say that?" Seele suddenly thought of a question and said, "If Sister Mei is willing to take you out of here."

"Isn't this also a very easy thing?"

"Of course," Kevin said boastfully. "What else do you think? With Mei on the case, there's no problem she can't solve! This Sea of Quantum is like her own backyard."

"Then you're free to come and go, aren't you?"

"So here's the question," Seele suddenly asked, "Why isn't Sister Mei willing to help?"

"She knew you were here, didn't she?"

"This..." Kevin's expression turned grim.

"Could it be that he has changed his mind? Or that you have been abandoned?" Seele exclaimed. "Mr. Kevin, you must be strong."

"No! That's absolutely impossible!" Kevin exclaimed frantically.

"Yes, I think so too," Seele added. "So there's still a chance, right? If you have another child, Mr. Kevin won't even have a chance."

"My MEI!!!"

That groundhog-like scream came again.

Unfortunately, MEI can't hear.

MEI pulled another stunt: I used your equipment to assemble something that looked shabby, but actually turned out to be quite useful. Then I opened the door.

That lock-picking device is disposable.

How was it disassembled? How was it reassembled? How does it work?

To explain in one sentence.

I think this is a good idea.

Then that's it.

"It really does look just as I expected." MEI said, looking at the huge horde of Honkai Beast. "As expected, we'll need another battle."

Those who once stood guard here are gone; this is the most distinctive feature of Honkai Energy.

It is probably the most frightening place.

It's not about Honkai Energy causing people to get Collapse Sickness.

It will turn infected people into Honkai Beast or Deadpool-like beings!

Those who once stood firm at their posts and refused to yield an inch are now their biggest enemies.

"Go ahead," MEI said. "Give us a quick death."

At the headquarters of the Adversity Business Group.

"This... can't be?!" Cocolia felt she had miscalculated once again. She always thought she would manage the timing perfectly and play her final trump card at the last moment.

But now it seems I miscalculated again!

That woman!

That guy who can transform into different forms made her think that the password would take a long time to crack, but it was cracked in such a short time!

ME Company is a bunch of useless idiots!

"It looks like we'll have to move it up."

Cocolia snorted inwardly.

"Bronya! Charge!"

"Seize control of the Moon Throne!"

Chapter 184 Internal Strife

Darkness descends, and infighting begins!

It seemed that once the remaining Honkai Beast were eliminated, the battle could come to an end.

Then Cocolia made her move!

Cocolia never expected that this hidden trap she had planted long ago would be used in such a place. But it was used here nonetheless.

It's okay.

Since we'll use it anywhere anyway, it's not too late to use it here.

"Aaaaa! What's going on?" Kiana screamed.

A sudden cloud of black mist descended, obscuring everything around her. Being suddenly thrust into this seemingly dangerous situation startled Kiana slightly.

"That little guy is gone." K423 noticed that Bronya had disappeared.

"There's a traitor among us!"

"Things can't be that simple." Mei, relying on her intuition and trust in Bronya, didn't believe it was that straightforward. Bronya had chosen to betray them!

"So what's going on now?" K423 asked anxiously, "Why did it suddenly turn out like this?"

"Don't panic!"

MEI pushed up her glasses.

"Panic won't help."

MEI naturally knew this would happen, but she didn't expect Cocolia to be so impatient! She thought that Cocolia would only forcibly order Bronya to seize control after gaining control of the warship.

They're forcing Bronya to seize control before they've even gained it.

Wasn't this really too hasty?

MEI pushed up her glasses.

"No rush." MEI wasn't panicked at all, and didn't seem particularly anxious; in fact, she appeared very calm. She said nonchalantly, "Let's wait and see."

"She will come looking for us sooner or later."

This time, time is our teammate!

"Is this alright?" Mei asked, a little anxiously. "Shall we just leave it like this?"

"But we don't have much time left."

If the mission cannot be completed quickly, the warship will be sunk. Moreover, sinking it is not the best option, even if it doesn't cause Honkai.

However, the massive Honkai Energy can also cause widespread Collapse Sickness.

It will be just as tricky then!

"Don't worry," MEI said, adjusting his glasses. "I just don't believe she can crack the control program so quickly!"

"Gaining control of a warship is not such a simple matter!"

MEI simply couldn't believe that the designers of the Moon Throne wouldn't have included a separate password to prevent others from tampering with the control program. Besides, this thing seemed to originate from the Adversity Quotient (AQ).
