Dr. Mei Is Still a Loser
The fusion of all kinds of Honkai Beast Hyper-Evolution Factor would undoubtedly produce an unimaginable and enormous boost, regardless of how she and Mobius adjusted it.
To date, the success rate of the Chimera Project remains at 0%.
On this matter, Mei and Mobius unusually agreed to oppose Bai Ge. Neither of them wanted Bai to undergo such a risky, even fatal, surgery.
"Bai Ge, you're strong enough already, and the probability of the Chimera Surgery failing is too high. Maybe we should just give up..."
"I know the probability of failure is high, but the risk and the reward are proportional, May, and this is the necessary strength. I must become the Chimera no matter what."
Bai Ge said solemnly and earnestly.
"But what if something happens to you..."
Mei clenched her hands tightly, still unable to put her mind at ease.
She dared not imagine the consequences of failure, because the White Youth before her was not only a savior in the eyes of outsiders, but also the beloved person of herself and many others.
If something were to happen to Bai Ge now, the whole world would be plunged into panic and despair, and Mei and Elysia would probably feel like they didn't want to live anymore.
"Relax~ I trust your and Snakey's skills, and I'll have Kevin do the Chimera Surgery with me. If it fails, we can use him as a backup."
"..."
Mei's eye twitched slightly, then she looked at Prometheus, hoping that her AI girl could also join in the persuasion.
However, the latter was busy optimizing the surgical procedure, seemingly intending to support Bai Ge.
"Doctor, according to my calculations and analysis, the success rate of persuading Bai Ge to abandon the Chimera Project is 1%. You should also know very well that once this person has made a decision about something, it is almost impossible for outsiders to stop him."
Prometheus made a sighing expression, as if he felt helpless about Bai's stubbornness.
Bai Ge showed a surprised expression.
"Huh? There's still a 1% success rate? You must have miscalculated, Prometheus. I'm determined to have the Chimera Surgery, and even God can't dissuade me."
"Of course, God can't stop you. It was originally a 0% chance without a doubt, but... I think if it's Elysia persuades you, there might be a 1% chance of success."
"Ah, this..."
Bai Ge froze, finding it difficult to refute.
He imagined the Pink Fairy Lady begging him not to have the Chimera Surgery, and his heart softened instantly, his unwavering will almost waver.
There is only one person in this world who can stop Bai Ge, and that is Elysia. As long as she cries, makes a scene, and threatens suicide, Bai really has no way to stop her.
"Prometheus, quick, contact Elysia immediately!" Mei said hastily.
However, the AI girl she created was rebellious in her daily life, and Prometheus shook his head to indicate that he refused to obey orders.
"Don't worry, Bai Ge, I won't contact Elysia. Also, I've optimized the surgical procedure. Doctor, you can start preparing for the Chimera Surgery for him now."
"Prometheus! You... then..."
"Doctor, I understand your concern for Bai Ge. In fact, based on my 112,132nd calculation and the results of the 215th optimization, the probability of this surgery succeeding is still less than 0.001%."
"Since you know this, why do you still let him run wild? Have you forgotten the underlying order I gave you to ensure Bai Ge's safety at all times?"
Mei glanced dangerously at Prometheus, a wrench and screwdriver already in her hands.
Prometheus immediately hid behind Bai Ge.
"I haven't forgotten, but I also know that all probability problems will fail when it comes to Bai Ge."
She poked her cute head out and looked directly at Mei as she spoke.
"It's only a 0.001% success rate. I believe Bai Ge will definitely succeed, just like the Miracle??? he accomplished in the past that everyone thought were impossible."
Second update, everyone! A new month has begun, and I'm begging for your monthly votes!

Chapter 295, Dr. Mei is still a loser (Please subscribe)
Inside Dr. Mei's laboratory.
Prometheus's mechanical eyes shone with an intense light, as if flames resided within them, radiating unparalleled humanity.
"Doctor, I will not stop Bai Ge's surgery because I believe he can succeed. No matter how small the calculated probability is, even if it is almost zero, I believe he can surpass my calculations, turn the impossible into the possible, and bring Miracle??? into reality."
Prometheus, who was hiding behind Bai Ge, spoke earnestly, her small hands tugging into the White Youth's clothes, looking like a little sister hiding behind her brother.
Her trust has nothing to do with data.
This is the pure and innocent emotion that Prometheus has spontaneously generated, and it will also be the seed for her future transformation from a mechanical girl into a human being.
"Thank you, Prometheus. Your words make me very happy. It seems that even if it's just to repay your trust, I will definitely let the fireworks called Miracle??? bloom for you to see."
Bai Ge turned around and gently hugged the AI mechanical girl, raising his hand to softly stroke her silver-gray Soul Steel hair.
He felt that the girl in front of him was really lovable, much cuter than that cabbage that only knew how to steal electricity!
Even if Prometheus is essentially just a heartless machine, Bai Ge has made up his mind that he will definitely repay the mechanical girl's trust.
On the other hand, she felt the White Youth stroking her with more force than before, yet also with much gentler touch.
Prometheus blinked her red eyes.
"Beep beep! Detected a significant increase in Bai Ge's favorability towards this machine! Okay, I'll look forward to it."
"Hmm~ By the way, let's go out and have fun together after my surgery. Prometheus, you can tell me any place you want to go, and I'll take you anywhere."
"Bai Ge, what you said sounds like the death myth that you humans often talk about. Also, I don't have any places I want to go, but if I could, I would like to attend Bai Ge of your concerts."
Prometheus said seriously.
Her birth was actually not long ago, and Bai Ge and Eden haven't held any joint concerts since the Seventh Honkai War, which means Prometheus has never had the chance to hear the boy's singing.
Of course, as an artificial intelligence Prometheus 397 doesn't have any particular fondness for music. Although she can accurately tell the difference between each note played by the performer and the original piece, she cannot understand the charm of the music itself.
Because ultimately, she is just a mechanical creation.
While there's a saying that playing music for plants can make them grow better, there's no such thing as playing music for a machine to improve its operating efficiency.
However, Prometheus was very curious.
"Bai Ge, your music contains something special that I can't capture with any detection equipment. I want to confirm what it is, but there are too many impurities in the videos and recordings on the internet, which will interfere with my analysis. So I would like to hear you sing live. Is that alright?"
This is based on the underlying command that Dr. Mei gave her when she created her, "Go and understand and observe Bai Ge."
Therefore, Prometheus's database contains a wealth of information about the White Youth, and it could even be said that there is no one in the world who knows Bai Ge in more detail than her.
When she went to sort through this information, and came across the concert recordings of Bai Ge and Eden, the mechanical girl sensed something special in the boy's music.
Prometheus couldn't describe what it felt like, but she clearly remembered that her power furnace had inexplicably overheated as if it had malfunctioned.
At that time, she realized that Bai Ge's music contained a kind of power that could change her, who was a machine.
Prometheus wanted to know exactly what that was.
"If Bai Ge needs a stage, I can prepare the best stage for you to the best of my ability, so..."
"No, no need. Prometheus, you can hear me sing anytime you want. Haha~ I didn't expect you to be my fan too. What a surprise. It's decided, I'll throw you a private concert after the Chimera Surgery is over."
Bai Ge generously said that he reached out and pinched the mechanical girl's cheek, as if he had already accepted the payment.
"Really? That's wonderful!"
Prometheus's eyes lit up, and he immediately decided to purchase the most advanced recording equipment.
"..."
Mei watched them quietly from the side.
The White Youth and the mechanical girl get along intimately, as if there is no racial barrier between them, and both of them have angelic handsome or cute appearances.
Just looking at it is therapeutic and relaxing.
(Seventeenth, have you begun to awaken to your true self? Although I had some expectations, this day has arrived much sooner than I imagined. But... that's to be expected, isn't it?)
Mei's lips curled up slightly, but she didn't seem jealous or upset as usual.
As the creator of this artificial intelligence life form, May has sensed that Prometheus is gradually transforming from a machine into a young girl, and the reason, of course, is because of a certain White Youth.
May was not surprised at all, and her gaze toward Prometheus softened even more.
[Observe and understand Bai Ge], [Obey Bai Ge's orders], [Protect Bai Ge's life], and so on. These underlying commands that she set on the mechanical girl made Prometheus regard Bai Ge as the most important person in his life.
When May first heard Prometheus say that, she was genuinely startled, but she quickly realized it was perfectly reasonable, after all...
This mechanical girl embodies Mei's feelings for Bai Ge.
Back when Prometheus was being created, Mei was preoccupied with Bai Ge's feelings, and these feelings became an invisible component that made up the mechanical girl.
She would certainly consider Bai Ge an important person.
She will definitely awaken to herself because of Bai Ge.
A mechanical girl created through Mei's own love affair, who has loved Bai Ge since the moment she was born.
(However, Prometheus XVII, you'll only realize this when you truly become human. I really look forward to seeing how you'll change then.)
May's gaze toward Prometheus softened even more.
Because at that moment she had "figured it out".
(Because I created you, Prometheus, you can also say you're my daughter. And rounding it up, it's not an exaggeration for Bai Ge to say you're my father. It's normal for a daughter to like her father, yeah, that's reasonable, very reasonable...)
How could a mother like herself be jealous of her daughter? Looking at Bai Ge and Prometheus /father and daughter getting along so well, Mei felt that she had a happy family and a fulfilling life, and had no regrets.
