Vill-V's Anti-Bai Ge Weapon, Model 007 (Continued)

While it's not impossible that it could be faked, looking at these detailed parameters, the Herrscher's explanation, the Honkai Beast illustrations, plus Bai Ge's tone and so-called woman's intuition, it's quite convincing.

After a moment of silence, Vill-V continued.

"Okay, I believe you're telling the truth. Joining you guys is just empty talk!! Putting aside the fact that I have no liking for organizations that conduct large-scale human experimentation, this genius still prefers to act alone!"

"Well, as expected, in that case, I'll now propose a bet to you, Vill-V."

"...Dear audience, what are you saying? I don't understand." Vill-V said, startled.

"Heh, did you really not understand, Vill-V? That day, when you saw your proud mechanical creation being easily destroyed by me, are you sure you didn't feel resentful? Didn't you want... a revenge battle against me?"

Bai Ge's eyes narrowed slightly, and he smiled like a white fox. His words easily touched Vill-V's heart.

As a member of the Cult of the Machine God who believes in mechanical ascension, how could Vill-V not harbor thoughts of opposing someone like him who has achieved physical sainthood? Just thinking about the scene of Bai Ge smashing her mechanical creations to pieces with punch after punch that day...

She just couldn't swallow that insult!

Even if Bai Ge doesn't give her that chance now.

In the future, Vill-V will definitely get angrier and angrier, and then she will come back to try to take revenge.

"Vill-V, I'm willing to give you seven chances to challenge me. You can challenge me with your mechanical creations. If I lose, you can join your 'Spiral Workshop.' If I win all seven times—you will become one of my people."

Bai Ge crossed his arms and said provocatively.

"Of course you can refuse, but I think the youngest owner of the Spiral Workshop, the Magic King of the Twilight Era, and the strongest genius in mechanical engineering, wouldn't be afraid."

"Haha, hahaha! Interesting! Absolutely interesting! It's rare to see such an interesting audience! They actually challenged the magician, no, they asked the magician to challenge them."

Vill-V let out an excited and cheerful laugh.

How could she not see such an obvious provocation? But for Vill-V, who considered herself a genius, this was indeed a provocation she couldn't refuse.

"I accept this bet! Dear viewers, please tell me your names."

"Bai Ge, Bai as in white clouds, Ge as in singing."

"What a strangely nice-sounding name! Well then, feel honored. In memory of such an interesting viewer as Bai Ge, I will name my next ingenious invention after you— the Bai Ge Armament Model 001!"

"Vill-V announced with great confidence."

"Heh~ I look forward to your results."

Bai Ge smiled and the two of them hung up the call at the same time.

He couldn't help but laugh out loud. He never expected that what was supposed to be a weapon for Kevin would turn into a weapon for Vill-V by his own Bai Ge.

Moreover, thinking of Vill-V's whimsical ideas, Bai Ge's face lit up with anticipation, thinking that it seemed that more interesting games would be added in the future.

"Bai Ge, you have quite the ambition."

"Mobius ..."

"You're planning to subdue this woman, aren't you? Oh no, it's not just that. After all, you seem to have the same idea about me too. How greedy! Do you intend to achieve both genetic and mechanical ascension at the same time?"

Mobius leaned back on the table with his elbows crossed, his snake-like eyes fixed on Bai Ge with great interest.

"I have no particular thoughts on mechanical ascension or genetic ascension, but... Dr. Mobius, Vill-V is an exceptional genius just like you. If humanity wants to defeat the Honkai, your power is indispensable."

"Defeat the Honkai, defeat the Honkai, do you have some kind of obsession with defeating the Honkai?"

Mobius asked, puzzled.

"It's not an obsession, it's a mission. To defeat the Honkai and save this era is the mission I was born to fulfill."

Bai Ge shook his head and said seriously.

"Is that so? Fine... Bai Ge, I'll dig out all your secrets and expose you one by one sooner or later!"

Mobius raised her right hand, her five slender fingers slowly clenching into a fist towards Bai Ge. The curiosity and thirst for knowledge she had been building in her eyes for the White Youth was almost overflowing.

Bai Ge smiled and opened her arms, signifying welcome.

"Emmm, what should I do? My Bai Ge is too mysterious, he's too attractive to these research-oriented girls. I have to keep a close eye on him!"

Elysia propped her head up and reminded herself.

For research-oriented characters, looks, personality, and strength are not as appealing as the word "mysterious," but Bai Ge happens to be such a mysterious person.

He harbors secrets as numerous as the Stars.

Elysia felt she understood why Mei, Mobius, and other women were so fascinated by Bai Ge.

"There will be more fun things to do in the future, which is great. If possible, I hope to get the SSR character, Vill-V, before the Third Honkai Eruption arrives."

Bai Ge licked his lips and muttered to himself.

If he had to say who he was most looking forward to among the Flame-Chasers, it would be Vill-V, because of this Flame-Chasers with the "Spiral" inscription.

Bai Ge saw the possibility of realizing romance!

Gundam! He's going to pilot a Gundam!

In addition to that.

Although most of the creations made by Vill-V are equipped with many unnecessary functions or are inventions whose meaning is unclear, her masterpieces are mostly called "genius little junk".

But Bai Ge doesn't mind at all!

Not only did they not mind, they were actually quite interested!

Bai said he just likes all this fancy stuff! Whether it works or not doesn't matter, as long as it's interesting and looks cool, it's all in his favor!

As for multiple personalities, they might make getting along a bit troublesome, but how many multiple personalities has Bai Ge seen so far? Seele, Mei, Kiana... Vill-V is just a bit more severe in her multiple personalities.

Bai just thought it was really cool!

After that, Bai Ge's daily routine gained another item.

In addition to regularly carrying out the mission of hunting Honkai Beast with the Moth Chasing Fire, having short dates with Elysia every three days and long dates every five days, doing some small experiments with Mobius, and playing with the cute and lovely Griseo, there is also an additional challenge of accepting Vill-V's invention!

Two months after the bet was made.

The Bai Ge Armament Model 001 to the Bai Ge Armament Model 007.

This means today is the last time.

"... Now for the exciting moment! Please don't hold back your applause and exclamations, the Bai Ge Armament Model 007, which this genius spent two whole weeks developing, is about to be unveiled!"

In a deserted place, Vill-V pointed proudly and confidently at the enormous creation covered by a red cloth beside her. As she finished speaking, cannons roared and ribbons fluttered down.

"Oh, oh, oh~ Yay! You're awesome."

Bai Ge applauded and cheered in a very accommodating manner. Although this weapon was meant to be used against him, he always had a lot of fun with it and looked forward to it every time.

Vill-V proudly puffed out her chest, then grabbed the red cloth and yanked it off forcefully... it took her several tries to finally lift it off.

Because the main body is very large, equivalent to a three- or four-story building, or, to put it another way Bai Ge Armament Model 007.

This is a small building.

"Great inventor, please explain!"

"There will be no commentary this time, but I can tell you there's a big surprise inside! I'll be hiding in the deepest part of 007. If you, Bai Ge, can successfully get to the very back and find me, then you win!"

"Oh? That sounds simple."

"Of course not! Model 007 is my most meticulous masterpiece to date! It was created by a great magician and experts! I've put my food money for the next six months into it, cough cough! Anyway, I'm sure I can beat you Bai Ge, this time."

With that, Vill-V ran into the house without looking back.

Bai Ge first looked at it with great interest.

In fact, he had already won. After all, no matter what traps or mechanisms were inside this 007 model, he could simply blast the entire building into ruins from the outside.

"But that would be too boring. After all, it's the brainchild of the great magician Vill-V and the expert's two personalities (Nori). Let me see what surprises it holds."

Bai Ge walked inside as she spoke.

The moment he stepped into the building, the light vanished, and everything went black.

With the sound of the iron gate falling, the entire building instantly became a dark, airtight room. Bai Ge raised an eyebrow, just as he was about to find a way to restore the lighting.

"Awoooooo-!!"

"Holy crap, what the hell?!"

Suddenly, a blue, ghostly light shone, accompanied by eerie music. A horrifying, mangled object appeared, roaring in a horrible way, as it charged towards Bai Ge, holding a Honkai Energy Gatling gun in its hand.

Da da da da da da!

"Damn it! Die!"

Even though he was startled, Bai Ge still managed to react, easily dodging the bullet before rushing forward and kicking the terrifying thing to pieces.

He then used the terminal's light to examine it and discovered that it was an automated mechanical doll resembling a zombie.

Bai Ge felt like he had grasped something essential.

"... Vill-V, you're using this tactic?"

He took a deep breath and continued walking inside.

Then, a mummy wielding a chainsaw, a skeleton with laser-like eyes, a Grim Reaper wielding a plasma scythe, Frankenstein covered in chainsaws, and so on appeared one after another.

Disillusioned with life, Xin Zhong wrote the epitaph of the vulture's heir.
