It's like a contest between riddle solvers.

Mei and the audience are tasked with solving the riddles set by the Thirteen Flame-Chasers.

"It feels like the screenwriter gave Mei a cheat code."

Ling shook her head.

This feeling grew stronger and stronger.

If Mei truly gains the approval of the Thirteen Flame-Chasers, receives Thirteen Flame-Chasers training, and inherits their Thirteen Flame-Chasers...

It's likely that Mei will not only catch up with Bronya and Kiana, but will probably become the top of the Trio in terms of combat power.

First came the Burning Flames Forever, where Kiana was overpowered; then came the Elysian Realm, Mei was overpowered. Damn it, when will Bronya ever stand up again?!

Mei solemnly accepted the Crystal Flower and walked toward the door leading to Mobius.

Step through the door and into the deep shadows.

Mei felt a sense of oppression for no reason. Before she could figure out what was going on, a voice that sounded like a little girl's suddenly came from afar. It was clear and crisp, but it also had a cold undertone.

"Oh dear, what a rare guest..."

The camera slowly zooms out, Mei suddenly turns around, revealing a chest that is as flat as can be.

The petite Dr. Mobius now sits upright in the space like Ultraman, a smile that combines charm and innocence on her face, looking at Mei, who is the size of an ant in her palm.

"Herrscher sister, let's do something fun together~"

When the audience saw that Mei was actually standing in Mobius's palm, they were stunned.

They all thought that Mobius in the PV would be a loli-type character, but they never expected that although she was indeed a loli-type character, she was fighting against Ultraman.

It can be said that Mobius's appearance was stunning, even astonishing.

"This feels kind of familiar..."

Little Knowledge frowned.

The scene gave her a sense of déjà vu; she must have seen it somewhere before.

"Little Knowledge Sister Shi, have you forgotten? Kiana stood in your palm just like this back then."

The bell reminded me.

"That's right!"

After being reminded, Little Knowledge remembered that she had also grown to a gigantic size back in Tai Xu Mountain, but that time it was an illusion.

"Yaqing, I really like this perspective."

Sakura complained.

"No, it's just that this makes it feel more oppressive."

Yaqing smiled.

A sense of oppression?

Sakura's expression was strange. In reality, Dr. Mobius had a curvaceous figure, tall and slender. His only flaw was that he was somewhat thin, probably because he ate instant noodles in the laboratory.

For example, someone might be 10cm taller than another person, but their weight...

However, the character of Mobius in the story is a loli with no breasts or buttocks.

This made it hard for Ying not to suspect that Yaqing's aesthetic sense was distorted.

Sakura was even considering whether to keep Griseo and Rin away from Yaqing.

After Mobius appeared, his conversation with Mei made everyone in the Golden Courtyard want to complain. They knew Mobius well, so when Mobius pretended to be a scared little girl, they were speechless.

With Mei constantly undermining him, Mobius finally couldn't keep up the act any longer, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared.

Mei was careless for a moment and accidentally fell into a trap.

"Come here, let's go a little deeper... It's right there... The Signets of Infinity... I'll give it to you, as long as... you take one more step forward."

The scene went black, and when it lit up again, the Infinite Signets floated in the center of the frame, its cold, clear green eyes seemingly able to pierce through the dimensional barrier and gaze upon the audience watching this scene.

Mobius ultimately decided to hand over the Signets to Mei.

But every viewer could clearly sense Mobius's ill intentions.

She is as mysterious as Elysia, but more Elysia.

"Oh no, Mobius has his eye on Mei too. Is this a land of women or Elysian Realm?"

Little Knowledge clapped his hands.

Mei = Tang Sanzang, Elysia = Queen of the Women's Kingdom, Mobius = Scorpion Demon.

Since entering the Elysian Realm, Mei's charm seems to have been amplified infinitely. Elysia would inexplicably appear by her side and help her every time, and Mobius has also set his sights on her.

It would be funny if Sister Nia also set her sights on Mei.

There were only a few women in the Golden Courtyard who were not easy to mess with, Mei attracted them all as soon as she arrived.

"It shouldn't be... probably... that bad, right?"

Sakura wasn't too sure either.

"Mobius was one of the 13 Flame-Chasers, surely he wouldn't attack his successor? Besides, he's already dead, what's the point of attacking him now?"

"Big sister, if you had sounded even a little more certain, I would have believed you."

Bell's rant.

"Judging from the current situation, Sister Snake must have her eye on Mei Sister. After all, the Previous Era did not have Herrscher who fought for humanity. This is the first time we have seen such a special individual. Based on our understanding of Sister Snake, we definitely cannot suppress our desire to dissect and study her!"

Pardo spoke eloquently.

She was completely oblivious to the strange looks she was getting from everyone.

Aside from Pardo's voice, all that's left is the audio from the storyline on the screen.

Why do you all see us that way?

Pardo still didn't react.

The comments section is already flooded with reminders.

"Later?"

When Pardo saw those two words in the comments, she shuddered, feeling as if she were being watched by a venomous snake, and her heart pounded with unease.

No way, no way, no way!

Pardo turned her head stiffly, like a robot.

But the figure behind her shattered her last hope.

Wearing his pajamas, Mobius looked at her with a radiant smile.

"Snake... snake... Sister Snake..."

Pardo stammered for a moment, her legs went weak, and she almost slipped off the sofa.

"Okay, go on, I'm listening."

The only difference between Mobius's blue-green pupils and those in the story is that they don't glow.

"Sister Snake... we... we were wrong, please don't put us on the operating table!"

Pardo is really scared now, she almost cried.

When Mobius saw that Pardo was actually going to drop the little pearl, he stopped teasing her and sat down next to Yaqing.

"Pfft, Pardo, weren't you so tough just now?"

Ling said jokingly.

Seeing Pardo Mobius didn't mind, Pado breathed a sigh of relief and said irritably, "Ling, when Sister Snake was behind us, you didn't even remind us. Aren't we still best friends?"

"Ha ha ha ha."

Ling laughed very happily.

Mobius looked at himself appearing in the story, still feeling unhappy.

She had the same mentality as Bronya back then: how come she became a flat-chested, short loli in the story when she was so sexy and tall?

"Snort."

Mobius snorted and stomped hard on Yaqing with his bare foot.

"What do you mean by 'going deep'? I'm so embarrassed. I didn't know Dr. Mobius was so bold. I wouldn't dare say such a thing to Mei."

Elysia covered her face with her hands, looking shy.

Mobius looked as ugly as if he had swallowed a fly.

"Elysia, everything you see is dirty because of your own heart."

Elysia was still smiling.

Mobius felt as if he had punched cotton, so he punched Yaqing in frustration.

Yaqing looked completely innocent. It really hurt when Mobius's bony little hands hit someone, but even though he was grimacing, he didn't dare to say anything to Mobius.

When Mei opened her eyes again, she was surprised to find herself back in the hall. Before she could react, she heard Mobius's voice behind her.

Mei was clearly not going to speak kindly to Mobius, who was trying to stop her.

Mobius, however, was not angry at all because of Mei's emotions.

"Obstacles? How could that be? Did you faint too quickly? Didn't you hear what I said at the end? The destination you wanted to reach is the starting point you are at right now!"

Mobius was almost making it explicit.

Mei's reaction to that statement was simply that it was absurd.

However, just as Mobius was pressing her advantage, Mei was struggling to keep up. Elysia appeared just in time to help Mei out of the predicament.

The moment Mobius saw Elysia, the fake smile on his face vanished instantly, leaving only a chilling expression.

Mei was surprised to find that Mobius treated Elysia very badly, even in front of her, an outsider, he didn't pretend at all, especially in how he addressed Elysia.

Traitor.

However, Elysia seemed completely oblivious to Mobius's attitude towards her and the betrayal in his words, continuing to joke around and evade the issue.

"Traitor, what are you talking about? Are you referring to Mei? Please don't think that way! I still care about you."

Mobius snorted and looked at Mei, giving her a reminder.

"Listen carefully, the new girl... ah, no, I mean the older sister who can charm you, you'd better be careful of this person."

Mobius switched to a little girl's tone halfway through his sentence.

"In the Elysian Realm, she will always be the least trustworthy one, even if only in the slightest."

Mei coldly stated that she would not accept any answers forced upon her by anyone, and that she would find out the truth herself.

Mobius wasn't going to convince Mei to trust him; it was just a well-intentioned reminder.

"You'd better be smart, or you'll pay the price sooner or later."

"Yes, we... have all paid the price for this."

Mobius's last words contained complex emotions, unlike her feigned sincerity: loneliness, regret, coldness, irony... a multitude of emotions that were difficult to discern.

Traitor?!

Upon hearing this title, the audience was immediately stunned.

In the recent episodes, what Elysia said to Mei had already made them silently regard Elysia as a good person.

But at this moment, it seems that things are not as simple as they thought.

"Traitor? Things are getting interesting, Elysia. Did you betray us, or humanity? Or perhaps, you are the real big boss of the Elysian Realm."

Mobius smiled and glanced at Yaqing with an appreciative look.

Anything that makes Elysia feel uncomfortable, she likes.

"Impossible! I would never betray everyone!"

Elysia glared fiercely at Yaqing.
