Elysia: Bai Ge, You Stole My Kill Again! (Continued)

Elysia puffed out her cheeks and clenched her little fists to punch Bai in the chest. Shesha was killed by Bai Ge, and so was the Herrscher of Thunder.

She, the dignified Pink Fairy Lady, worked hard all night, but didn't get a single kill. Is that reasonable?

"Next time, I promise, I promise I won't Aili you for it next time, okay?"

Bai Ge quickly raised his hands in surrender. Even when facing the Herrscher's raging thunder and the Honkai Beast's gaping maw, the boy did not flinch. But now, he surrendered directly because of the little fists of his beloved girl.

"No way! One isn't enough, I'm going to reserve the one after that too!" Elysia said, holding up two fingers and opening and closing them like scissors.

"Aili, you're so greedy."

"I'm not as greedy as you, Bai Ge."

"Well, okay, okay, since you're so cute, I'll let you have it next time and the time after that."

Bai Ge thought for a moment about the two Herrscher would appear next, and then revealed a mocking smile. "I have no problem giving up the kill, but if you can't get Aili, don't blame me for taking it for you later, hehehehe~~!"

However, that's for the future. Now that this 'bitter battle' is finally over, Bai Ge can't contain the joy of victory and launches a sneak attack on the Pink Fairy in front of him.

"Aili".

"Hmm? Uh!"

Before Elysia could react, Bai Ge suddenly captured the girl's lips. Her eyes widened, but the next second they softened and became sweet. Qi Hui responded in kind.

"Ooo...

Little did they know that they were being watched by countless people.

In the Moth Chasing Fire, everyone excitedly embraced each other, watching the two on the big screen, and shouted hysterical cheers.

The despair brought by the Herrscher has been shattered, and at this moment the world seems to have become a better place.

The boy and girl embracing and kissing on the screen are the most beautiful things in the world right now! Everyone is giving Bai Ge and Elysia their sincerest thanks at this moment.

A few minutes later, after the White Youth and the pink-clad girl reluctantly parted their lips, the latter asked with concern.

"Bai Ge, is it okay for you to work so hard?"

As Bai Ge's closest person, Elysia naturally knew that the boy had been hiding his true strength.

When on missions, Bai Ge relies solely on his physical abilities to fight and has never used his powers.

However, this time he went to such lengths to expose his flames to everyone's gaze, which made Elysia worry that he might have been forced to do so.

"Don't worry, Aili. Before, it wasn't the right time to show my skills and I wasn't ready with an excuse, but now it's different... The time has come. It just means that I might cause a little trouble for Mobius later."

Bai Ge made a gesture of pointing to the universe.

"Oh, I see. Then it's alright!"

Elysia was immediately relieved.

When the two returned to the Moth Chasing Fire base, a large number of warriors rushed over and surrounded Bai Ge and Elysia, then—threw them into the air!

"We won! We really won!!"

"Well done! You're heroes!!"

"Haha, welcome back, heroes!!"

"Captain Bai Ge, Miss Elysia, thank you for saving everyone!!"

A thunderous roar of applause erupted.

Everyone looked at Bai Ge and Elysia with fervor, adoration, respect, and gratitude; their gazes were as if they were looking at two saviors.

That's not entirely wrong. The scope of the Third Honkai Eruption was so vast that even if the Moth Chasing Fire and the United Nations wanted to cover it up, it would be impossible. Soon, ordinary people would also become aware of the Honkai's existence.

Those who witnessed the Honkai will surely spread the story of the two, telling others that it was a boy and girl named Bai Ge and Elysia who resolved this crisis.

"Although I'd love to let you guys toss me around a bit longer, don't forget there's still a mission. The crisis doesn't just disappear after the Herrscher is defeated. Hurry up and clear out the remaining Honkai Beast and rescue the survivors."

"Yes, Captain Bai Ge!!"

The soldiers of the Moth Chasing Fire saluted Bai Ge in unison, their morale soaring with the joy of victory.

Just as Bai Ge and Elysia were planning to eat something first before rejoining the cleanup of the remaining Honkai Beast and the search and rescue mission,

An acquaintance I hadn't seen for years walked over.

"Long time no see, Bai Ge, Elysia."

"Hmm? That voice is... Mei?!"

The two turned around and saw a girl in a school uniform with a dark blue ponytail standing in front of them.

"Oh right, Changkong City is your hometown. It's been a long time, Mei. I'm so glad you're alright."

When they met again after several years, Mei had transformed from a little girl into a stunningly beautiful young woman.

Bai Ge couldn't help but take a few more glances. To be honest, he really couldn't tell the difference between Mei and Mei. They didn't look exactly alike, but they were practically identical in modeling!

"Thanks to you and Aili, we are safe and sound... But I never expected that after a few years, you would have joined the Moth Chasing Fire and become great heroes."

Mei remarked with emotion that she had always been an extremely calm and rational person.

However, when she saw Bai Ge and Elysia fighting against the Herrscher and Honkai Beast, she couldn't help but feel excited and overwhelmed.

"I will need your guidance in the future."

"Hmm? Mei, could it be..."

"Yes, just like you thought, Aili. The Moth Chasing Fire has already sent me an invitation. I was a little hesitant at first, but after seeing the two of you... I've decided to join."

Mei pushed up her glasses and said with a smile.

After years of accumulating knowledge, she has finally begun to show her talent to the world.

A while ago, Mei published a paper on quantum mechanics, which caught the attention of the Moth Chasing Fire, who identified her as a once-in-a-century genius and immediately sent her an invitation.

Bai Ge said this was utter nonsense.

A once-in-a-century event? It's more like a once-in-fifty-thousand-years event! The pinnacle of human intelligence is playing a joke on you!

Mobius and Vill-V were both geniuses, but they each had their own strengths, such as biology and mechanical engineering. However, Möbius was a true all-around genius!

"Heh~ I welcome you to join Mei."

"Yes, thank you. And I've missed you so much all these years, Bai Ge. Let's find some time to talk alone later."

"Cough cough! Cough cough cough! Mei-chan, I'm Xiaobai's girlfriend now, so you're not allowed to have any more funny ideas."

Elysia immediately stepped forward, her eyes fixed warily on Mei. Good heavens, our "best friends" have been reunited after so long, and you're already thinking about my boyfriend as soon as we meet.

Will we ever be able to have fun again?

"Plum Sauce, maybe you shouldn't join the Moth Chasing Fire. Let me tell you, this isn't the kind of place you're looking for."

"The higher-ups are constantly scheming against each other for profit, and there's also a mad scientist like Aunt Mobius."

"You don't even have anyone to protect you. You're easily drawn into the power struggle, and if you accidentally offend someone, you'll be eliminated. It's too dangerous. Don't join, don't join."

Elysia spoke earnestly with an expression that said, "I'm doing this for your own good." The soldiers of the Moth Chasing Fire beside her twitched at the corners of their eyes, unsure of what to say for a moment.

"Really? Since that's the case... then Aili, you can lend me Bai Ge."

"???"

"Anyway, you're so powerful, Elysia, you can definitely handle it on your own, while I'm just a weak woman who can't even kill a chicken, so I need a knight to protect me."

"Don't even think about it, Bai Ge is mine!"

Seeing Mei grab Bai Ge's arm, Elysia immediately bristled and grabbed Bai's other arm as well, and the two began a tug-of-war.

Bai Ge was both amused and exasperated. Watching Elysia and Mei arguing, he had a strange feeling about it.

"Cough cough, you two take a break. One of you just finished fighting Herrscher, and the other just escaped death. Where do you get so much energy? By the way, how are Kevin and Su doing? Don't they also live in Changkong City?"

Bai Ge tried to comfort her while changing the subject.

Mei shrugged in response.

"I don't know. After you left, Bai Ge, I couldn't hang out with those two idiots anymore. They're probably dead by now."

"Ugh, Mei-chan, you're so heartless... Could you please be just as heartless towards my! Bai! Ge!?"

"That won't do. Bai Ge is my confidant and mentor. I've received a lot of guidance from him over the years."

"Huh? What guidance? I don't know anything about it."

Elysia's eyes widened in surprise; she had thought the two had lost contact after their breakup.

Mei smiled and patted her shoulder.

"After all, it's normal that you don't know this because you're not interested in research, Aili. Actually, I often communicate with Bai Ge via email. I even consulted some of his opinions on the quantum mechanics paper I published before."

"???!"

Elysia was stunned. She really had no idea that Bai Ge and Mei were in contact! She now felt a sense of defeat, as if she had discovered that her husband had been keeping a mistress right under her nose.

Bai Ge shrugged innocently in response.

His email exchanges with Mei were purely academic, nothing more... At most, they would chat about their recent situations, what they ate for dinner, and share their travel experiences, and that was it!

Sigh~ It would be strange if Bai couldn't refuse Mei, who has Mei's face.

With that face of Bai Ge, it would be a piece of cake for Mei to win his favor.
