Interview

"Speaking of which, I haven't seen Disaster all day. Where did she go?" Elysia asked.

"Sister Daisy should be here soon," Pardo said.

"Rovoc ... as an intellectual Fallen Angel, she's always been the weapons engineer among the Thirteen Fallen Angels, and like Admiralty, who specializes in the biological field, she doesn't have much combat ability." Kevin recalled, "Admiralty, I remember he's a researcher at the Third Research Institute now, right?"

"Kevin, you seem to know a lot about the Thirteen Fallen Angels," Elysia said, looking at Kevin with narrowed eyes.

"Whether it's Maple or Lilith, I've had quite a bit of contact with them, and I often deal with them in my daily affairs, so I know a bit about all the information about the Thirteen Fallen Angels," Kevin said calmly. "As for Admiralty ... more information was actually given to me by May."

"Sister Rovoc doesn't have much fighting power..." Pardo smirked. Was Kevin's standard of "not much fighting power" a bit too high?

How could Rovoc possibly defeat so many Fusion Warrior within the Fire Moth back then?

If she's considered to have almost no fighting power, then she is... Oh, she's always been the weakest, Flame-Chasers. Never mind then.

"Yes, I know quite a bit too. For example, Rovoc once worked with Vill-V to create an Anti-Kevin Armament, and I heard it worked very well?" Elysia said jokingly.

Kevin's face darkened. "Putting aside appearance, I don't think that thing is that powerful."

Besides giving him a huge fright.

Does Rovoc have a somewhat flawed sense of aesthetics? How could he create something so "unique"? Let alone him, wouldn't everyone else look the same?

On the other side.

"Long time no see, Dr. Mobius. You seem to have changed quite a bit from the person I remember." That was Sullivan's first words upon meeting.

"Hey, sir, is it really okay for you to say that?" Zhu Yufeng thought to himself as he sized up Sullivan.

Sullivan made a good first impression on her; he seemed like a kind old man. The previous time, when Rovoc occasionally mentioned her mentor, he also said, "He is a very good teacher."

Sullivan recommended Mobius, but later, due to a conflict with Mobius's ideas and his defeat in the power struggle, he was replaced by Mobius. Disheartened, he never again concerned himself with anything within the Fire Moth.

Seeing that Mobius's expression was starting to show some displeasure, Sullivan knew that his words had been misunderstood, so he continued, "I mean, you've toned down your venomous fangs and coldness quite a bit compared to before."

"Heh, they say old people are shrewd and calculating, and that suits you quite well." Mobius glanced at Zhu Yufeng subconsciously.

Sullivan didn't miss this information, and he also looked at the young man sitting next to Mobius.

"And who is this?" he asked.

"You can call me Feng. I am currently a full-fledged warrior of the Fire Moth and also a research assistant for Mobius ..." Zhu Yufeng wanted to say "Dr. Mobius", but after being glanced at by Mobius, she immediately swallowed the word "doctor" before she could say it.

"You don't seem afraid of her," Sullivan said, staring at Zhu Yufeng. "As far as I know, whether they're veterans or new recruits, everyone who knows the situation is afraid of the Fire Moth. And the Fire Moth manual should also stipulate that you should minimize contact with Dr. Mobius, right?"

Mobius narrowed his eyes. What was that old bastard Sullivan thinking? Don't forget, it was Sullivan who needed his help!

"Perhaps it's because I've never cared about danger," Zhu Yufeng said calmly. "I've also never cared whether Mobius's ideology trampled on the concept of 'humanity.' Since I don't care about these things, why should I be afraid?"

He stared openly at Sullivan.

After a while, Sullivan looked away and smiled, "You're a monster too, Maple. But with you here, I can be a little more at ease about Rovoc's future."

"No matter how you look at it, I'm just as dangerous as Mobius, right? And you still dare to leave your student here?" Zhu Yufeng chuckled, while looking at Rovoc, who had remained silent throughout.

Rovoc wasn't a talkative person, although he improved somewhat later and would chat with Lilith and Mostima about girly topics, but now Rovoc is completely focused on scientific research and avoids talking about anything else.

"Dr. Sullivan means that Dr. Mobius changed because of you, unlike the Dr. Mobius he remembered," Rovoc suddenly said.

Zhu Yufeng: "..."

Well... he did know, he just wanted to find fault with Sullivan's words, and besides, isn't that typical of your personality? Could it be...?

Mobius looked at Sullivan with a half-smile, "It seems your student has learned quite a bit from you, but not everything. There are things she should say and things she shouldn't say. She doesn't seem to have fully grasped that."

"Well..." Sullivan somewhat awkwardly, "Rovoc is very talented, but she rarely cares about things outside of research. Interpersonal skills could be considered one of her weaknesses..."

Rovoc said expressionlessly, "I'm just stating a fact, and I personally think that this should be said so that Mr. Feng won't be unaware of it."

"Then why do you think I don't know?" Zhu Yufeng said with a smile.

Rovoc was taken aback. Right, why did she subconsciously assume that Zhu Yufeng's emotional intelligence was insufficient to support his understanding of these things? This doesn't make sense!

Sullivan glanced at his student. It seemed that his student was being a little too proactive in things outside of research.

"Miss Rovoc has great respect for her mentor," Zhu Yufeng said casually.

Rovoc came to his senses, nodded, and said bluntly, "Yes, I respect Dr. Sullivan, but I respect truth even more."

So that's why you gave up on yourself and thought humanity couldn't defeat the Honkai, right? Zhu Yufeng sighed inwardly.

To take humanity's inability to defeat the Honkai as a truth...

Mobius looked at Zhu Yufeng and exchanged a glance with him, confirming that both of them believed that Rovoc's existence might be related to the previous memory, and that further confirmation was needed.

Afterwards, Mobius asked Rovoc some other technical questions that Zhu Yufeng couldn't understand, and in the end it was confirmed that Rovoc had no memory of the previous time.

Mobius didn't mind having another capable assistant anyway, so she quickly agreed to let Rovoc join her laboratory as her assistant.

While Mobius was taking Rovoc to her laboratory, Zhu Yufeng said to Sullivan, who was smoking and waiting, "Aren't you really not worried at all? Although I don't care, are you sure Mobius's ideas won't affect Miss Rovoc?"

"You really are a gentle child, no wonder Dr. Mobius turned out this way..." Sullivan said with a wry smile, "But there's nothing I can do. Dr. Mobius is the best person I can contact for her. Rovoc, when she gets stubborn, she's like a bull, you can't pull her back no matter what. If I don't help her find a way to join the Fire Moth, one day she might just run off to the place where the Honkai occurs."

Zhu Yufeng paused for a moment, then said, "You may be mistaken. I... am not a gentle person."
