Inside one of Hyperion's cabins, Elysia and Zhang Wei, a man and a woman, were alone together, with thunder stirring fire.
Ahem, it was nothing like that. Constructing a body inevitably involved some private matters, so the first time definitely could not be done in front of everyone.
Using the Authority of Reason to comprehend and construct, Zhang Wei picked up Elysia's test tube and completed the analysis in an instant.
Elysia's cells had already appeared in his mind. Born from Hyperion, his mental capacity was naturally extraordinary, surpassing even those so-called three hundred thousand minds.
So although this project was somewhat troublesome for him, it was not particularly difficult.
"Wow!"
"I never expected you to have such a great figure, Elysia!"
The room was filled with jade-like white light. As Zhang Wei constructed her, a fair naked body gradually appeared. Zhang Wei even appraised it with great interest. There truly was not the slightest flaw; it was utterly perfect. That soft, plush feeling did not make her seem fat at all, but instead gave her a unique sense of beauty.
The next moment, he constructed a Fire Moth combat uniform. A couple of glances were enough; he was a gentleman.
"Oh my, Captain, I never expected you to be so naughty. You have to take responsibility for me now!"
A blush spread across Memory Body Elysia's cheeks. She had originally wanted to watch how Zhang Wei constructed the body, but the sight of that completely naked, delicate figure made her mind crash on the spot. Only after the clothes had been constructed did she recover, staring shyly at the innocent-looking Zhang Wei.
Even she could not help feeling embarrassed after being completely seen by a man. How humiliating. The Pink Fairy wanted to flee the Elysian Realm and go to a world without Zhang Wei.
"Ahem, that is not impossible, but let me make this clear first: I did not do it on purpose!" Zhang Wei said without blushing or skipping a beat. The thickness of his skin was immeasurable.
"Huh? Couldn't you construct the body and clothes together?" Elysia asked with a puzzled expression.
Zhang Wei shook his head. "Constructing the body first, or constructing the body and clothes together, makes no difference. You have no secrets in front of me; I can see everything. I have to analyze it beforehand in my mind before I can use the Authority to construct it." Zhang Wei pointed to his head and shrugged helplessly.
The human body contained tens of trillions of cells. This was absolutely an enormous undertaking, let alone for the Flame-Chasers. The cells in their bodies were even more complicated because they had fused with Honkai Beast genes and undergone MANTIS surgery. The Flame-Chasers' bodies could already be considered inhuman.
Compared to the complexity of the human body, a few pieces of clothing were the simplest thing imaginable.
"Fine, I'll say you're right. But is this really my body?" Elysia thought it over and realized that was indeed the case, then curiously examined her own body.
Those blue eyes were currently dim and lifeless. Her perfect, delicate body resembled a model, without the slightest breath of life. She could clearly sense it herself. As expected, other Authorities needed to be used in conjunction with this one—or rather, something was still missing.
Zhang Wei, meanwhile, was very satisfied with his work. What a beautiful body. Every inch and fraction of it radiated a beauty that did not belong to this world. As expected of a god's daughter, not a single flaw could be found.
"Of course it is your body. To borrow the words of a certain devoted lover: the world allows consciousness to match a new vessel, but it does not allow vessels to gather scattered consciousness. But I am not bound by that restriction."
"Next, we activate this body. Power of Creation, bloom!"
Zhang Wei slowly extended his hand. Sacred white light blossomed, warm and peaceful. White flower buds grew out of thin air from the metal floor.
Emerald vines climbed along Elysia's body. Under the blazing, boundless radiance of the Power of Creation, the lifeless body began to regain vitality.
Blood began to flow, organs began to function, and her heart began to beat. If her current condition had to be compared to something, it would be a vegetative state; Elysia's memories had not yet moved in.
"Elysia, are you ready?"
Zhang Wei nodded, then looked toward Memory Body Elysia. Only this Memory Body was left. Once it entered, Elysia would be reborn into this world in another form.
"Of course."
Elysia smiled faintly. She trusted Zhang Wei, and Zhang Wei was deeply moved by that trust.
The Authority of Consciousness activated. Elysia only felt a wave of dizziness wash over her mind before she completely passed out. When she woke again, she blinked and discovered her current state.
"A steady, powerful heartbeat... Did it work?"
Elysia placed her left hand over her chest. The long-lost warmth left her somewhat dazed and unable to believe it. Was this what rebirth felt like?
"Do you even need to ask? Of course it worked. Welcome to this world, Elysia!" Zhang Wei said with a sincere smile.
"Ahem, then let's make it a little more ceremonial. Hi, how does it feel?"
Elysia was very satisfied with her body. She gently spun around, clasped her hands behind her back, and looked at Zhang Wei with a brilliant smile as she spoke playfully.
"Just like our first meeting!" Zhang Wei nodded deeply.
With a soul inside it, Elysia's body was truly glowing now. It was the radiant splendor blooming from her soul—flawless and dazzling.
"Hehe, wait. There is something strange about this body. You..."
Elysia opened her mouth, suddenly noticing something. Her eyes widened as she stared at Zhang Wei in shock. It was not that Zhang Wei had done anything improper.
"What is it? Is the weight wrong? I remember you were 54.8 kilograms. Rounded off, that should be 55 kilograms. There shouldn't be a problem, right?" Zhang Wei teased knowingly.
In order to perfectly restore the real Elysia, Zhang Wei had not been careless even over such a "small matter" as her weight. He had perfectly recreated Elysia's true weight.
"That's not it!" Elysia rolled her eyes and said coyly, "Don't round things off in that regard. I'll get angry. And couldn't you, Captain, have calculated my weight a little lower?"
"That's not what I meant either, cute Captain. You know, don't you?"
In response to Zhang Wei changing the subject, Elysia inwardly declared him a bad boy. So irritating. The power she possessed now was undoubtedly the power she had at her peak.
"What do I know? That you're a Herrscher? Your weight? That you put your little pink dress in Snake Snake's wardrobe? That you like girls..." Zhang Wei teased.
"Wow, you know so much. Have you been paying attention to me for a long time? Well, everyone loves Elysia, after all. It really is embarrassing," Elysia exclaimed, covering her cheeks with her hands in a bashful pose. She felt that Zhang Wei understood Elysia even better than she understood herself, and could not help sighing in amazement.
If she had not known she had never met Zhang Wei before, Elysia would have thought he was someone who had accompanied her while she grew up, then somehow forgotten her afterward.
