"I'll tell you when I have the chance," Su said with a smile.

Kevin and Yaqing exchanged a glance, their thoughts tacitly aligned.

This person must not be allowed to live!

The two stood up together. Yaqing locked Su's arms, and Kevin hugged Su's legs, as if trying to lift him away.

But the next second, Su easily broke free and locked the two of them on the sofa. Her arms, exposed from her short-sleeved shirt, showed off her perfect muscle lines.

Su didn't even open his eyes when dealing with the two of them!

"Stop, stop, stop! Surrender! Surrender!" Kevin pounded the sofa frantically.

"I was wrong, I was wrong, I was wrong, Brother Su." Yaqing patted Su Suohou's arm.

Seeing the two easily "subdued," Mei sighed helplessly, while Mobius watched the "struggling" Yaqing with great interest.

Elysia pulled out a whistle from somewhere, blew it, pretended to be a referee, walked in front of Su, and raised her hand. "Three, two, one, okay, contestant Su wins."

The scene shifts to the underground laboratory of the Edison Tower, New York, where Schrödinger is wearing Kitty- shaped protective suit. On the other side of the tempered glass are Edison and the Finns.

"Harry, don't add the reflection module yet! Look, the current scale of the reaction is already very dangerous." Schrödinger instinctively wanted to wipe the sweat from his forehead, but unfortunately, it was completely useless through the thick protective suit.

Schrödinger remained very serious until the core temperature rose to a point where the conversion into ordinary internal energy was highly efficient, at which point he finally breathed a slight sigh of relief.

Edison in the observation room could no longer contain his excitement. If this invention succeeded, then the Schicksal would have no value or basis for existence.

"What?!"

Seeing the Finns' utter astonishment, Edison explained that this invention, under controlled conditions, could convert Honkai energy into ordinary energy. If this invention were widely disseminated, absorbing Honkai energy in every corner of the earth...

Honkai, in itself, is equivalent to non-existence, isn't it?

"As for Schicksal, it's nothing more than an organization that uses Honkai to fight Honkai. Once it leaves Honkai, it's nothing at all." Edison was very excited, quite unlike her usual self.

Ultimately, Edison settled on the name.

Moonlight Throne Project!

"The Moonlight Throne? Isn't that from Previous Era? How come it's a name Edison came up with?"

["What if this plan has already failed in the first place? Or perhaps Edison never even mentioned it to Einstein and the others."]

"After all, if what Edison said were true, the Queen probably wouldn't have had a chance; the Honkai would have been over long ago."

Chapter 146 Planck: My ship has collapsed?

About a month passed. During this time, Joyce had a very fulfilling time, being taken by Tesla to various places in the city.

Today, under Tesla's insistence, they drove to the beachfront resort. It's worth mentioning that Joyce was driving, but his driver's license and passport were identical.

After checking into the seaside villa, Joyce stood alone by the window gazing at the coast. He couldn't help but think about many things, from the relationship between the Schicksal Headquarters and the North American Branch to Einstein and Tesla.

He recalled that a month earlier, Planck had told him that after the discovery of Honkai Steel at the Yellowstone Lake, friction between them and headquarters would be inevitable.

As Joyce pulled himself out of his reverie, the beautiful sound of a piano began to play behind him.

He turned around.

Einstein's index finger deftly tapped the piano keys, and the piano's unique, clear sound seemed to flow from her fingertips.

"I've never studied any folk songs, so why do I feel a strange familiarity with this melody?" Joyce wondered, and asked subconsciously.

Accompanied by Einstein's piano playing, he sang the folk song that Planck had sung when Carl left.

"Sure enough, Joyce and Carl must be related, otherwise why would he sing the folk song that Planck sang for Carl back then?" Tesla nodded.

"But Planck ... are you deliberately flirting with Joyce?" Schrödinger stared with dead fish eyes.

"What does it matter?" Planck said dismissively, hugging Schrödinger and nuzzling his soft cheek. "Schrödinger is so cute, let your big sister hug you~"

"Planck, get away!" Schrödinger pushed away Planck's face that was leaning in.

"So, in the story, our escape from Schicksal was also because..., which is understandable." Edison laughed, "Using sponsorship as a pretext to pry open their mouths, as expected of me, truly clever."

"Show-off," Tesla muttered, pursing his lips.

"Tesla, is he jealous of me?" Edison smiled, his eyes narrowing.

"Are you kidding me! How could I possibly be jealous of a nouveau riche like you!" Tesla bristled like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.

"Goose, goose, goose, goose."

"Don't laugh!"

The red-haired owner of the hotel, which shares the same name as Rita, sat in his room, his gentle smile gone, replaced by a gloomy expression, as if reporting to someone.

"I am the Countess."

"I originally intended to entertain 'Adam,' but I didn't expect 'George' to come along instead."

Please instruct me on how to prepare the "main course."

"Good, good, the villain has shown up so quickly."

"Get out, you riddle maker!"

Was Joyce Adam or George?

[At a restaurant near the hotel, Joyce and her two companions chose their seats. The most striking feature in this scene was the woman in a trench coat behind them at the bar.]

Instantly, the live chat exploded with activity.

"It's the class monitor!"

"The squad leader has lived for 50,000 years, is it strange that he was seen fifty years ago?"

"Suddenly remembered, the class monitor seems to have logged off too..."

"You're so despicable."

"Dog Otto back my squad leader, you shill!"

"It's the class monitor!" Kiana exclaimed excitedly, thinking she would never see Fu Hua again.

"It's a pity. I don't actually dislike her, but it's really tragic that an ally got shot in the head." Although she said she didn't dislike the other party, when she mentioned the headshot, the corners of Sirin's mouth were more difficult to suppress than AK's.

Fu Hua, who was training, suddenly felt a chill.

"Wow! This is such a feast! I can't even tell which one is the main course!"

Tesla's voice echoed the hotel landlady's words.

Joyce kept her head down.

"What's wrong? You look so listless," Tesla asked.

"I...I can't stop myself from thinking about Berlin three years ago." Joyce looked dejected, his bangs obscuring his eyes.

"Carl ..."

"Martha..."

"Innocent people like them..."

"Three hundred thousand on that day, three hundred thousand! What kind of concept is that?" Joyce's tone became more and more excited as she spoke.

Tesla remained silent for a moment.

"You should be with me, you fool."

When Tesla uttered this line in the web series, Einstein spat out the coffee in his mouth, turned his head to look at Tesla mechanically, and his eyes glowed red.

Even Planck, who admires Welt Young and Tesla, is starting to lose confidence.

Tesla was so scared he wanted to shrink into the sofa.

"Hey, you messy-haired guy, I swear to God, I definitely don't have those kinds of feelings for Joyce, otherwise, turn off the lights! I'll turn them off!"

The lights went out as soon as Tesla finished speaking.

The curtains completely blocked out the sunlight, leaving the room pitch black.

Tesla was completely baffled.

"Tesla, you..."

Before Edison could finish speaking, the light came on again.

They instinctively looked towards the switch and saw Joyce giving them a malicious smile.

"Joe! Is!"

Joyce attracted all the attention the moment she appeared.

Einstein and Tesla pounced on him.

"Help! Edison! Planck! Schrödinger! Help me!"

After making that thought-provoking statement, Tesla added, "There's nothing in our lives worth remembering... there's no need to dwell on the past."

Tesla has translated another batch of Meng Haoran's poems into English.

With Tesla's gentle comfort, Joyce emerged from the shadows and smiled. Tesla, like a mother caring for her child, served Joyce food.

"Good boy~ good boy~, come on, eat meat, eat meat~"

"Tesla ..." Einstein began.

"What's wrong? Aren't you going to praise me?"

"Pfft." Einstein was amused.

"Wha... what's wrong! People... people can be serious sometimes, you know."

"How lovely, Miss Tesla," Einstein smiled gently.

"What do you mean by 'cute'?!" Tesla retorted, embarrassed and angry.

The live chat exploded again.

"This isn't the Dr. Tesla I know!"

"I don't care what kind of monster you are, get off Dr. Tesla right now!"

"So Tesla really did treat Joyce like a child. I actually thought..."

"How dare you! Do you even respect me, the Second Herrscher of Reason Walter Yang?!"

In Edison's office, Tesla pointed at the web series projected onto the screen and shouted, "You're even worse than yourself in the show with that messy hair!"

"Dr. Tesla has admitted that he's adorable!"

"You're asking for it!"

Joyce said speechlessly, "Why were you hitting me?"

Planck felt a surge of relief; the ship she was shipping hadn't collapsed, but had survived.

Chapter 147 Heroes Discussed in the Bathhouse (4K)

After enjoying a sumptuous lunch, Tesla returned to his room and fell asleep immediately, while Einstein and Joyce strolled on the winter beach, the tranquil atmosphere bringing peace.

On the endless white sand beach, a figure in a trench coat sits quietly, gazing at the blue sea.

"That person over there...I think I've seen her before when we were eating." Joyce noticed the woman in the trench coat sitting alone on the beach.

"What... is that?" Einstein asked, puzzled.

"I can't quite put my finger on it..." Joyce frowned, "It's just that there's always this feeling that this person is dangerous."

Fu Hua turned her head and looked in the direction of Joyce and the other person.

"Oh no, she heard it..."

Fu Hua walked up to Joyce and recited the second half of the poem that Tesla had just spoken in the restaurant. She also gave Joyce a book of poems and told her the story of Fuxi.

Because the two were speaking in Chinese, Einstein couldn't understand a word.

Joyce explained, "She gave me this book of poems and told me a myth."
