Honkai Simulator Is Not For Kidnapping Herrschers!

No. 666 directly converted its room into a small laboratory.

Unlike Chen Ran's more conservative approach, it utilized the biological knowledge it had synchronized and acquired to start manufacturing potions for itself.

This made Kevin frown.

Since both of them joined the Flame-Chaser from Changkong City, and No. 666 had been following Kevin previously, the Flame-Chaser had arranged for them to share a dormitory.

The Flame-Chaser wasn't so extravagant as to provide individual dormitories for new recruits.

At this time, Kevin was clearly not the cool, handsome guy he would become. Over the period they spent together, the two gradually became familiar with each other. Kevin was not one to keep secrets and directly stated that he joined the Flame-Chaser to find Mei. No. 666 seized the opportunity and called her "sister-in-law."

Whether she was a real sister-in-law or not was irrelevant; by calling her that, Kevin was undoubtedly secretly pleased.

As a fellow male, and having synchronized Chen Ran's memories, No. 666 understood this perfectly.

However, it didn't take this opportunity to try and build a good relationship with Mei.

Mei was a monster of reason, even more dangerous than Mobius.

No. 666 knew its special abilities would be noticed. As long as Chen Ran couldn't protect himself, it was best to keep a low profile around Kevin.

Kevin was quite protective, so he felt very secure.

Kevin couldn't help but ask, "What are you doing now?"

"Something good," No. 666 replied directly.

Seeing Kevin's confused expression, it added, "It's something that can make a man harder, bigger, and thicker."

Kevin: "..."

"Do you have a hidden ailment?"

"Ah, this is for you," No. 666 said matter-of-factly. "Don't worry, I've calculated it. The effects are absolutely good, with no side effects."

Kevin: "..."

"I don't think I need this."

"Are you sure you really don't want it?" No. 666 looked puzzled. "I thought no man would refuse more muscle and greater strength."

The "good stuff" it mentioned was a special potion made from the knowledge in its brain.

It was specifically designed to act on muscles, increasing metabolism and mitosis.

Kevin: "..."

Chapter 7: The Ocean, Full of Water

Chen Ran felt he was becoming more enduring.

It wasn't just the endurance from physical exertion, but more so the absence of that stinging sensation in his consciousness within the simulation scenarios, indicating he could simulate for longer.

He had already notified the people at the Oceanic Branch. For such a minor matter, as long as Wendy's safety was confirmed, no one would interfere.

After all, the Oceanic Branch itself bore some responsibility for Wendy's current state.

They would turn a blind eye to minor issues.

However, they certainly wouldn't let Wendy go out unprotected. After Chen Ran and Wendy left the Oceanic Branch, specialized Valkyries followed them.

Wendy could naturally sense that she was being followed, but she didn't care.

Because traveling was inconvenient, Chen Ran had specifically applied for a car.

"This is the first time I'm touching a steering wheel."

"Good thing it's an automatic. Gas and brake with one foot."

Listening to Chen Ran's muttering, Wendy suddenly had a bad feeling.

"I heard automatic cars are like toys, and I love playing with toys the most."

"Seatbelt is fastened, hold on tight!"

Wendy instinctively grabbed the built-in handrail in the car and watched as Chen Ran directly stepped on the gas pedal, started the engine, and shot off like a rocket.

Wendy: "..."

She began to suspect if Chen Ran was sent by Anti-Entropy.

Fortunately, apart from Chen Ran's initial aggressive driving, he adapted well otherwise.

Wendy instinctively asked, "By the way, do you know the traffic rules in New Zealand?"

"I haven't even taken a driving test, do you think I know them?"

"Forget it, just listen to my commands. Stop when I say stop, go when I say go." Wendy wasn't flustered. Automatic cars were the easiest vehicles to learn, even easier than bicycles.

Basically, one could be on the road after half a day of practice.

Although for some people, the meaning of "on the road" was different.

Chen Ran was doing it on purpose, of course.

Just because he never got a driver's license doesn't mean he's never seen a car. He just wanted to tease Wendy.

Honestly, he was just a jerk.

Wendy quickly caught on, looking at Chen Ran with a hint of exasperation. "Have you always been like this? I thought researchers were supposed to be serious people."

"Life's already so tough, why not have some fun?"

Chen Ran said, "Don't worry, I might be mischievous, but I won't do anything that makes people hate me. Especially you."

"You're already making me hate you."

Wendy rolled her eyes.

However, she didn't actually dislike the feeling.

If her leg hadn't been injured, Chen Ran would have been the type of person Wendy hated the most. But now, as Chen Ran said, life was already so difficult.

She felt a little envious of Chen Ran.

"By the way, I barely know anything about you," she said. "Before you became a researcher, was your life easy to talk about?"

"It was just an ordinary life. It's fine to talk about it, but it was probably very boring."

Chen Ran thought for a moment and said, "It was pretty much the same as your life before, where you'd eat, sleep, and then train."

"I see, so it was indeed a similar life."

Wendy knew that even though Chen Ran's personality wasn't the best, being able to join Schicksal meant he was a genius in a certain field.

She said, "So, have you thought about what you want to do in the future?"

"Of course, I'll do whatever my boss tells me to," he replied nonchalantly. "As for myself, I haven't really thought about it. But if I had the chance, I'd consider healing you first."

"Your sudden remark makes me suspect you have ulterior motives." Wendy was starting to be influenced by Chen Ran.

"Cough, cough, I'm serious."

Chen Ran naturally wouldn't mention anything about the Fourth Honkai War.

He said, "That way, I can leave a place in your heart, right?"

Wendy directly pinched the soft flesh of his waist.

The sea in New Zealand was no different from any other sea.

At least, Chen Ran just felt it was a bit sunny.

The Third Honkai War had not yet occurred at this time. The Northern Hemisphere was in winter, and the Southern Hemisphere was correspondingly in summer.

Chen Ran had no intention of participating in anything related to the Third Honkai War. After all, he knew this was a simulation, not reality.

Therefore, he had no psychological burden teasing Wendy.

He parked the car and took out the wheelchair.

He gently picked up the girl and placed her in the wheelchair.

Wendy didn't resist being close to Chen Ran, or rather, she preferred to look at the surging tide not far away.

The Far East Branch was located on an island, but she had never seen the sea in the Far East.

Her daily life was filled with training.

This was mainly because she had heard that Schicksal headquarters had a Valkyrie who reached A-rank at the age of 12. That person named Durandal had greatly motivated Wendy.

Afterward, with her own perseverance, she hadn't fallen too far behind.

But before she left the Far East, she heard that Durandal had already become the youngest S-rank Valkyrie.

Now, Wendy wasn't dwelling on it anymore.

After all, dwelling on it was useless.

Her eyes fell on the ebbing and flowing beach, and she suddenly felt that this was quite nice.

However...

Chen Ran coughed and said, "This is my first time seeing the sea too. I even feel an urge to recite a poem."

"You can recite poetry?"

"Of course. I've studied ancient Chinese poetry and European classical poetry," Chen Ran said proudly.

He paused and said, "Listen carefully."

Wendy had a bad feeling again.

But she only heard Chen Ran clear his throat, then with great emotion, "Oh, sea, you are full of water."

"Oh, crab, you have eight legs."

"Pfft."

Wendy couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Then, she heard a 'click'.

Chen Ran had taken out his phone at some point to take a picture. The photo showed Wendy with her beautiful eyes sparkling and the corners of her mouth turned up.

The ocean breeze lifted her hair, capturing that moment in time.

[Warning: The current simulation has reached the host's mental consciousness's carrying capacity. Continuing the simulation will lead to confusion of consciousness.]

[The system will temporarily end the simulation scene. Congratulations to the host for obtaining the corresponding item rewards.]

As his consciousness wavered, Chen Ran returned to reality.

Then, he found a small, hard piece of paper in his clothes pocket.

"Hi everyone, I'm Elysia. Entrusted by your instructor, I will be your special sparring partner from now on. So, are you ready?"

A girl with long pink hair smiled slightly, interrupting Chen Ran's thoughts.

"Then, I'll draw randomly."

The girl said, "First up, Chen Ran."

Chapter 8: Chen Ran's Broad-Minded Thoughts

Elysia was a girl who described herself as brilliant as a flying flower.

She joined the Flame-Chaser around the time of the Second Honkai War and assisted the Flame-Chaser in defeating the Herrscher of the Void.

During the Third Honkai War, Elysia was dispatched to other cities to fight and did not participate in the operation against the Third Herrscher. Even so, at this point, she could be considered the strongest warrior in the Flame-Chaser.

Generally, Elysia was not responsible for training new recruits.

However, it wasn't impossible if she was bored.

Chen Ran, whose name was called, was synchronizing memories with No. 666. After Elysia called his name, he had no choice but to step forward.
