Zhang Wei chuckled. He'd played Honkai Impact 3rd, a bright and cheerful game, through the Hyperion. How could he not understand Elysia as a "person"? Her charisma was truly captivating.

If anyone dared to say they disliked Elysia, he, as a member of the "Love Gate," would be the first to smash their head in. If you said Mobius disliked her, that was fine. Everyone knew Mobius's mouth was harder than Soul Steel. She was just a tsundere snake, soft all over except for her mouth. Even if the Elysian Realm were destroyed, Mobius's mouth would still exist.

"Achoo!"

Meanwhile, Mobius, who was waiting on the other side, suddenly sneezed and frowned. It had to be Elysia talking about her. That pink fatty was truly detestable. Just you wait! In reality, she had wronged Elysia.

"Can memory bodies catch colds too?" Kiana asked curiously.

"They don't catch colds. Memory bodies in the Realm, even without their original bodies' strength, possess superhuman abilities. They are immune to diseases like the common cold, but they still have normal senses," Eden said, drinking the fine wine Zhang Wei had collected. A slight flush appeared on her cheeks.

Kiana nodded. Memory bodies were quite magical. She also wanted to create a Kiana memory body.

"It's exactly the same as my body back then. I didn't expect you could do such a great job," Elysia said, still getting used to her body, which could be said to be a one-to-one replica of her original form.

"Captain's work! It even has the function of 'carrying babies'!" Zhang Wei said, hands on his hips, nose held high.

"..."

Elysia blinked her eyes. She hadn't said anything about that. Was he thinking a bit too much?

However, she couldn't deny that this brand-new body was indeed identical to her past self. If she didn't know she was a memory body, she would truly believe Elysia had been reborn.

"Don't doubt yourself. You have your own thoughts; you're not Elysia's replacement. Don't you want to see the Herrschers of the current civilization? The story that changed and exists because of you."

"Authority of Consciousness? You're reading my mind?" Elysia immediately used Origin's Authority to add a layer of security to her thoughts. A cute girl's heart couldn't be seen by bad boys.

Elysia was angry, her cheeks puffed out. She glared at Zhang Wei with a pout, a look so cute it made Zhang Wei's health bar drop rapidly.

"Ahem, I was just curious. I don't usually read other people's minds casually," Zhang Wei said guiltily.

"Hmph, I forgive you. But don't casually read girls' minds; they'll dislike you."

"But I really do want to see the Herrschers of this era!" Elysia said word by word. When she heard earlier that the Herrscher of Reason stood with humanity, she couldn't have been happier. She had succeeded. The Herrschers of the current civilization also possessed the brilliance of humanity, which was what she wished for most, what she longed to see.

Although the Kiana she saw now was the Herrscher of Finality, possessing her own humanity, that was from another world. It still felt different from this world.

"Yes, a story that exists because of you. You certainly have the right to witness it!" Zhang Wei said deeply.

After watching the story of this world, Zhang Wei felt that the Previous Era was truly carrying the current one. The current civilization's eventual success was inseparable from the achievements of the Previous Era. The elder planted the trees, and the younger generations enjoyed the shade.

There was a very interesting comment that felt very close to reality:

Elysia: I hacked the exam hall's surveillance.

Mobius: I swapped the exam papers from the previous session.

Kevin: I became the invigilator, and now I'm supervising.

Su: I'm going to other exam halls to see how others are taking the test.

Hua: I brought a few cheat sheets from the last exam.

The current civilization was undoubtedly fortunate. Even though the Previous Era ultimately failed, they gambled all their hope on this epoch. The exams had become akin to open-book tests. Standing on the shoulders of giants, they sealed the Honkai on the moon.

Of course, this wasn't to negate the people of the current civilization. It was just that the achievements of the Previous Era were too incredible and played a crucial role.

"A story that exists because of us. What a romantic way to put it," Elysia savored the words, her favorability towards Zhang Wei rising significantly.

"Let's go out. Eden and the others are getting anxious."

Elysia walked towards the reception room with her hands behind her back, skipping along. Without a word, Zhang Wei could clearly feel her good mood.

"Ta-da! Eden, and everyone, how is it?"

The door automatically opened, and Elysia hopped in lively, eager to show off her current self.

"It really succeeded?" Mobius, riding her personal aircraft, silently appeared before Elysia and squeezed her arm. The warm touch made her eyes gleam with excitement, the look she gave a white mouse.

Elysia nodded, not feeling creeped out. Mobius used to look at her like that often, wanting to tie her to the experimental table as a test subject. Being a social butterfly, she wasn't scared at all.

"Since you've been revived, can I draw some blood?" Mobius casually picked up a sharp scalpel (Soul Steel) and gestured at Elysia's arm.

"No, it'll leave a scar!" Elysia flatly refused. She had no inclination for self-harm.

"Elysia, congratulations!" Eden's noble and dignified pretty face displayed a breathtaking smile. No introduction was needed; just seeing Eden brought one word to mind: rich woman!

"Eden, don't rush. It'll be your turn in a moment!" Elysia hugged Eden. The embrace of two beautiful girls filled the spacious room with a faint, sweet scent.

"Captain big brother, it's my turn now!"

Mobius, upon seeing Zhang Wei, immediately clung to him, her voice dripping with a sweetness that made one's bones go numb, as if teasing him.

"Mobius, are you sure you won't do anything crazy when you go out?"

Kevin, who had been silent, was happy for Elysia, but he thought of Mobius's madness. If she were to run wild in the outside world, the consequences would be unimaginable. Who knew what she might do?

Everyone else fell silent. They glanced at Mobius and Vill-V. Neither of them was a quiet person. While their combat strength might not be the strongest, their danger level could definitely rank them ahead of the Flame-Chasers.

"So, you all don't want me to go out. Then don't come looking for me when you need me!" Mobius said unhappily, her small face darkening.

It was as if she were a terrorist, how ridiculous!

"You all decide for yourselves. I don't care who wants to leave the Elysian Realm!" Zhang Wei said, sitting on the sofa and giving them a chance to choose. He wasn't a devil who forced others.
