Kevin's Special Team-Building Event: Slurping Noodles?! (Continued)

Sakura sighed.

This truth... no wonder Sue was unwilling to tell Mobius. Putting aside whether Mobius would believe it or not, the cruel truth alone was enough to drive Mobius mad.

"Well."

Little Knowledge sighed.

In the face of Honkai, there is no harmony or beauty; devastation is everywhere, a tragedy. All they can do is search for hope for humanity amidst the ruins.

In short, it's like trying to find candy in a knife.

"That blind man... Hmph, what a delusional man."

Kalpas cursed him for being presumptuous, but his tone was extremely complicated.

Given his personality, why would he praise someone?

"Yaqing, isn't what you wrote a bit too harsh?"

Ling leaned closer and asked in a low voice.

Ling never expected that Mobius would be the first of the Thirteen Flame-Chasers to be stabbed.

Yaqing tilted her head, looking puzzled.

Can this even be considered a knife?!

Ring, are you awake?!

Yaqing really wanted to say to Ling: "If this counts as a knife, then don't read any further. I'm scared, I'm afraid you'll cry yourself to death here."

But Yaqing ultimately didn't say it.

Mei continued to investigate the matter of Mobius, especially after learning that she possessed the ability to shed her skin like a snake. With such an ability to resurrect, Mobius was likely to have lived to see the present civilization, just like Kevin and the others.

Outside of the Elysian Realm, Mei had never heard of the name Mobius, nor had Raven.

Even Kevin, Fu Hua, and Su could slumber in the present civilization through the All Things Dormant, so there's no reason why Mobius couldn't do the same, especially since Mobius is pursuing infinity and immortality.

No matter Mei asked, they all seemed to be convinced that Mobius was the survivor.

Then, through Sue, she learned another piece of information about the Fusion Warrior: the Artificial Collapse.

It was an ability that abandoned the human body and completely assimilated itself with the genes of the Honkai Beasts. In that situation, it would become extremely dangerous. Su could have stopped the Artificial Collapse Mobius, but Hua's intrusion broke the balance.

Before Su lost consciousness after using some special methods, it was Ying who rushed over to save him.

So, is Mobius still alive?

This question came to the minds of the audience.

If Mobius had died so simply, they would never believe it. But if Mobius hadn't died, why haven't we heard a single word about him in modern civilization?

It's important to know that the Flame-Chasers who survived from the Previous Era all made appearances one by one. Fu Hua appeared in the first movie, Kevin appeared in the Sea of Quanta, and Durandal to experience her memories in the legacy film.

But I've never heard of the name Mobius.

"Mobius ...is neither alive nor dead."

Upon hearing this, Ling remained silent in rebuttal.

"Sister, what you said is as good as nothing at all."

Sakura blushed.

"So, what I mean is that the old antique, as a frontline fighter against the Honkai, was knocked unconscious by the aftershocks of the battle between the doctor and the physician. Hehehehehehehehe."

Little Knowledge was amused and the goose kept laughing.

In the fragmented plot of the Elysian Realm, while Mei was investigating Mobius, Elysia approached Eden and talked about Kevin.

Normally, team building activities are organized by Elysia, but there are times when Elysia is not available, so the responsibility of organizing team building activities falls on Kevin's shoulders.

Hearing Elysia's words of warmth, Eden's face showed a hint of helplessness.

It's clear that Elysia is unaware of the details of the team-building event organized by Kevin.

"Well... how should I put it... back then I was still relatively inexperienced and thought it was one of the traditions of the Moth Chasing Fire. So I never refused any of his invitations."

"Hmm... I guess I should have told you sooner. And then? And then what happened?"

Elysia blinked her beautiful eyes curiously.

"... I have seen more than ten soldiers sitting together in the conference room eating noodles at least ten times."

Eden looked helpless.

"Meeting room... eating noodles... hahaha!"

Elysia couldn't help but laugh.

Kevin's team-building interlude dispelled much of the story's gloom. Viewers were surprised to see Kevin, with his icy expression, eating noodles with a group of Fusion Warrior in a conference room, making it hard for them to feel emotional.

Just thinking about it in my head was enough to make me burst out laughing.

"Pfft."

Sakura almost spat out the water she had just drunk, and quickly pulled out a few tissues to cover it up.

"This is too ridiculous! He's clearly the leader of the Thirteen Flame-Chasers, with such a high status, yet he's eating noodles in the conference room with his people. Who could possibly stand that?"

Sakura's smile was more restrained.

Meanwhile, Ling, Pardo, and Little Knowledge, who were standing next to her, were laughing so hard they were doubled over. Some of them were patting the sofa, and some were patting the carpet.

The laughter of geese and barbell-like laughter mingled together, like a duet.

Even Kalpas's lips curled into a slight smile beneath his mask.

"Noodles?"

Elysia thought about it carefully.

Kevin seemed to have already completed his Fusion Warrior surgery by then, and couldn't even hug his lover, so how could he eat instant noodles? The noodles probably froze into ice cubes before they even reached his mouth. Was he eating cold noodles instead?

"Hahaha hiccup."

Elysia burst out laughing at the thought.

Eden swirled his wine glass and smiled.

What are your thoughts?

As soon as Elysia let go, Mobius quickly snuggled into Yaqing's arms.

Perhaps it was the humor of eating dough that briefly dispelled the shadow cast by Klein's death.

Mobius's smile often gave people a sense of danger, but in Yaqing's arms he was like a little child.

"Because... I've seen it before."

Yaqing's hesitant tone immediately piqued the curiosity of many people.

This includes everyone around and the viewers and fans in the live stream.

"Yaqing, have you really seen it? Is it in the plot or in reality? If it's in the plot, I think with that honest old man's personality, he probably wouldn't refuse."

Little Knowledge couldn't help but laugh out loud again at the thought of Fu Hua obediently slurping noodles in the conference room.

Yaqing nodded.

They reminisced about the past, back in college, when Kevin was one of the school's most handsome guys, nicknamed "Prince." At that time, the sunny Kevin was the head of the basketball team, and he quickly dragged Su and Yaqing to participate in the basketball team building activity.

The scene of dozens of basketball team members eating noodles in the conference room is still fresh in Yaqing's memory. Kevin awkwardly said that this was the budget, and Yaqing even wondered if Kevin himself liked to eat instant noodles.

After listening to Yaqing's story, everyone burst into laughter again.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Little Knowledge laughed so hard he bent over.

She initially thought it was a fictional scene from the story, but it turned out to be a real-life scenario closely related to the plot.

["I knew it! Kevin was the savior, the strongest of the Previous Era, how could he do something like this? I never imagined that something from reality would be reflected in the plot."]

["I'm dying of laughter. When I saw this scene, I sprayed the water I had just drunk all over my computer screen."]

"It's over. Kevin's image in my mind has changed. He used to be the supreme being wielding the Judgement of Shamash, but now he's just someone slurping instant noodles."

A joyful atmosphere filled the air.

They seemed to have forgotten the sorrow brought by their Elysian Realm.

Although it was only Klein's past.

As for Yaqing, he really wants to see everyone happy right now. It's not that he's suddenly becoming kind-hearted, but he just wants to enjoy the happiness for as long as possible.

The subsequent events were so intense that even he himself couldn't handle them.

Not to mention Elysia and the others.

The Elysian Realm is just a prelude; the Eternal Elysium is the ultimate goal.

[To Elysia]

Yaqing glanced thoughtfully at Elysia.

Mei learned enough about Mobius from Flame-Chasers and Raven, but she failed to connect everything together, missing only one crucial thread.

Mei approached Mobius again.

Unlike before, this time she agreed to the experiment Mobius proposed.

This caught Mobius off guard. Although she had no reason to refuse, this gift was a way to unlock the seal on the Stigmata, something no Herrscher had ever done before.

In order for the Herrscher to participate in this gift, she needs to make some preparations in advance.

In response, she needs to reclaim all her Signets.

Mei decides to undergo Mobius's experiment, which Elysia learns of. Alicia makes no attempt to hide her worries, but there's nothing she can do now that things have come to this.

When Mei arrived at the depths of the Elysian Realm, Mobius no longer concealed his true intentions and chose to confront Mei directly.

She chose to lie, but wasn't Mei also choosing to lie?

Her true purpose was to leave the Elysian Realm, but the memory was simply not capable of doing so. Mei suddenly realized that the technology Mobius used on the Gray Serpent and the technology she used to create Klein technologies that Mebius had used.

It's all for the sake of the present, which is a shift in consciousness.

He transferred his consciousness into a Herrscher and was reborn!

What a magnificent experiment!

Mei immediately understood everything. The reason why Mobius gave her all his Signets was not to help her, but to make her body adapt to Mobius's consciousness more quickly.

Mei, of course, wouldn't just stand by and watch this happen.

However, her opinion is not important now.

In the darkness, Mobius revealed the true form of the Fusion Warrior. His body fell into the shadows, and what emerged again was a colossal serpent, ferocious and terrifying, completely unlike any creature that could exist in reality.

Appearing in a completely new guise, this is Mobius, this is Artificial Collapse.

Mei now understands why the Raven refused such a gift.

"Holy crap!!!"

All the groundwork laid beforehand for Mobius came rushing back at this moment.

That giant serpent that seemed to reach the heavens.

It brought a great shock to the audience.

The thought that every Fusion Warrior possessed such abilities suddenly made me feel that the danger level of the Previous Era had increased significantly.

Is Mobius some kind of supervillain?

Elysia was stunned.

This was the first time since Mei entered the Elysian Realm that Flame-Chasers had gone to such lengths, even resorting to Artificial Collapse. How was this any different from a life-or-death struggle?

"Mobius, right now, who looks more like the villain, you or me?"

Elysia smiled as she looked at Mobius.

"Snort."

Mobius gave a soft snort.
