Kevin put himself in Bai Ge and knew he would make the same choice, and would never have appeared before him to give him even the slightest chance.

"So, what are you here for this time? Are you looking for someone to Prime World again?"

"No, didn't I just say over the loudspeaker that I'm here to have some noodles with you, my friend?"

"... Slurp up some noodles, my friend."

Kevin's eye twitched twice.

Bai Ge's behavior involuntarily reminded him of a beautiful girl as radiant as a falling flower.

Even after 50,000 years, he can still do nothing against such a shameless social terrorist.

In particular, Kevin was at a loss for how to react to Bai's inexplicable confidence that he wouldn't kill him, as if this guy had completely controlled his personality.

Although I had a thousand words in my heart, in the end I could only say one sentence.

"... Does this time include a seasoning packet?"

"Hmm? Kevin, why are you saying such strange things? It's like how you can taste the spiciness in bell pepper curry, or how there can be no seasoning packet in instant noodles."

"... Yeah, how could instant noodles not have a seasoning packet? Oh well, never mind."

Kevin said with a blank look in his eyes, thinking to himself, "What was the point of the plain water noodles I ate before? And not only did you not have a seasoning packet, you didn't even have a vegetable packet."

Bai Ge was also puzzled by his expression, wondering if it was because he had bought the winning instant noodles last time.

(No way, the probability of instant noodles not having a seasoning packet is one in a million! Kevin, you're so lucky.)

But thinking about it now, I really feel bad. After 50,000 years, he finally got to eat noodles, and then this happened. Bai Ge can't even imagine how disappointed and dejected Kevin must have felt at that time.

"Ahem, there will definitely be a seasoning packet this time, so don't worry. Also, consider this Judgment-Class Honkai Beast Chi You as my compensation to you."

"Judgment-Class Honkai Beast? Alright, I'll take it."

Kevin's eyes lit up. Over the past 1,500 years, his energy had been almost completely depleted. Having a Judgment-Class Honkai Beast as food would undoubtedly allow him to recover a significant amount of his strength.

But he was still somewhat surprised, not expecting Bai Ge to send him supplies to increase his strength.

"Don't look at me like that. Even if you recover to your peak, you still can't leave the Sea of Quantum without the coordinates of the Prime World. So what am I afraid of?"

"... Aren't you afraid I'll capture you and force you to open the portal back to your Prime World?"

"First of all, even if you catch me, I can't open the passage, so give up. Secondly, you can't catch me when I can turn into Quantum Ghost. Finally, the restrictions on me traversing the Sea of Quantum alone are very low, and I can leave whenever I want."

"..."

Seeing Bai Ge's confident and fearless demeanor, Kevin immediately realized that he really didn't seem to have any way to deal with him.

Moreover, they even provided him with Chi You as food; wouldn't it be unfair of him to attack them?

Bai Ge smiled, patted his shoulder, and continued.

"And with me around, even though you can't leave the Sea of Quantum, at least someone will occasionally bring you instant noodles and chat with you. So if you do anything to me, then no one will come to visit you in prison anymore."

"... Come with me, I'll take you to the World Bubble I created, and while we're at it, I'll ask you some questions about Current Civilization, okay?"

"No problem~ I also happen to have something to discuss with you, let's eat and talk."

(Didn't you say you just came to have some noodles with me?)

Kevin couldn't say those words; in the years he'd become obsessed, he'd lost the ability to vent.

So, speechless, he dragged Chi You's corpse along with Bai Ge towards the World Bubble he had created.

Bai was also amazed. Even after losing so much energy, this popsicle could still create an artificial World Bubble. Kevin, isn't your cheat a bit too much?

(No way! I'm going to run some Previous Civilization dungeons another day and complete the Chimera Project to strengthen myself! That's way more absurd than fusing a few Herrscher Gem.)

A few minutes later.

Bai Ge held a bowl of freshly made instant noodles, slurping them down while watching Kevin absorb Chi You's energy.

"Um, how does Chi You taste?"

"... It's alright, but it looks a little burnt."

"That's normal, after all, it was roasted with Heavenly Fire Holy Judgment."

"I see... Hmm???"

Kevin froze, almost choking on his own words, wondering what he had just heard.

Was Chi You killed by the Heavenly Fire Holy Judgment?

The next second, Bai Ge proudly patted his chest, as if to say, "That's right, I did it."

"Bai Ge, who exactly are you?"

"You don't need to know, Kevin, it's none of your business."

"..."

The riddle-like appearance of Bai left Kevin speechless, feeling a sense of déjà vu and a sudden spike in blood pressure.

First update, please give me flowers and votes!

Chapter 124, Kevin: Huh? Griseo was captured by So? (Please subscribe automatically)

"Our strength is gradually returning, not much, but enough."

After absorbing the last bit of energy from Chi You, Kevin nodded in satisfaction. For him now, forcibly breaking through the Sea of Quantum was no longer a difficult task.

However, without Prime World coordinate system, it's best not to take such a chance, otherwise, who knows what strange place you might end up in.

"Hmm? You've finished absorbing it? Then come over and slurp up your noodles, or they'll get soggy."

"They're here."

Even though her strength had increased, the White Youth in front of her still treated her with complete indifference, handing her a bucket of pre-cooked noodles.

Kevin's feelings were somewhat complicated; he increasingly felt that Bai Ge and Elysia had some similarities.

If we were to ask whether he was happy or annoyed by Bai Ge's appearance, it would definitely be the former.

After spending so long in the Sea of Quantum, although loneliness couldn't affect Kevin's will, who wouldn't hate having someone who would send him love worms, energy, and even instant noodles?

Kevin felt it would be better for Bai Ge to take back his self-proclaimed friend status. He had no other intentions than that he himself might be a bad person when it came to friends.

Most of his friends so far have met with bad ends.

"Do you have any questions for me? I'll definitely tell you anything I can answer; I'm not a riddle person."

"Will you tell the truth?"

"Of course, I hate lying, and I will never tell a lie unless absolutely necessary. That's honesty, that's my true self~"

"..."

The image of a pink, fat woman flashed through Kevin's mind. He shook his head, his eyes still filled with suspicion.

It's important to know that lying can be considered a human instinct.

"Is it true that the Herrscher of this civilization retain their humanity, as you said last time? Is there any concrete evidence?"

Kevin asked again.

Actually, there was another issue that concerned him even more: whether Aili was still alive. But Kevin didn't dare to ask this question, fearing that Bai Ge was lying about this one.

After all, recalling their last encounter, when Bai Ge said "Elysia is not dead," it was definitely a time when a lie was necessary.

Kevin sincerely hopes that his comrades are still alive.

But he didn't dare to confirm the news.

That's why he asked the second question that concerned him: Do Herrscher of this era truly possess humanity?

"Oh? You still don't believe me? Isn't that a coincidence? If it were any other question, I really would have a hard time proving it, but if you're talking about whether Herrscher have humanity, I myself am the best evidence."

Bai Ge flashed a bright smile and patted his chest, indicating that his body was the best proof.

Kevin paused for a moment, not understanding what he meant.

"You are the evidence? Why?"

"Because I am the Herrscher of this Current Civilization ~"

"!!!"

Kevin's eyes widened in surprise, his expression clearly showing astonishment.

"You're Herrscher? No, you don't have a core."

"Hey~ I'm here to visit a prisoner. How could I possibly be carrying a key that could allow him to escape from prison? I entrusted the Herrscher Core to my girlfriend for safekeeping."

Bai Ge shrugged and said.

He knew that the Herrscher Core contained the coordinates of its Prime World and could also connect to Imaginary Space to obtain the highest concentration of Honkai Crystal that continuously generated Honkai Energy.

In the original storyline, Old Yang was beaten up badly by Kevin because he brought the core into the Sea of Quantum. If it weren't for sit-ups being his signature skill, he would have been dead long ago.

Therefore, appearing in front of Kevin with the core would be pure self-destruction, a low-level mistake that Bai Ge would never make.

"Don't disbelieve me, although I didn't bring the core, some of the Herrscher Authority still remain in my body~"

Bai Ge snapped his fingers as he spoke.
