Nagamitsu's Warning.

Changguang nodded in agreement, but didn't respond to Gwen's teasing—

"After all, in your post about who stole from whom, although I was also listed, I was ranked last. If news really spread that I stole from Bianca, Rita, and Anna's houses, it would definitely shock everyone, right?"

"..."

Looking at this woman who was quick to act recklessly, Gwen admitted that most of the subtle and indescribable emotions he had felt earlier had dissipated, and he looked at the smiling Changguang with a subtle gaze.

Although Gwen had not yet evolved to the level of a great mage in his previous life, he was simply not old enough.

Although he gained some experience in interacting with other races in a closer and more casual manner after arriving in this world, it was not enough for Gwen to respond fluently to the teasing of someone like Changguang, just like Aquaman.

After pondering for half a second, and exchanging a moment's glance with the teasingly expressionful Changguang, Gwen's lips curled into a smile—

"If you really want to make a big splash, Changguang, I'm not unwilling to cooperate."

Although it will require some effort and resources, I am willing to lend a hand if you request it.

Since the goal is to relax anyway, I might as well loosen up a bit.

"...!?"

Upon hearing Gwen's words, Gwen, who had been smiling and waiting to see his interesting expression, Changguang his eyes slightly and looked Gwen up and down.

Changguang believed he knew Gwen fairly well. Although they had chatted back and forth before, it was mostly limited to routine topics.

Having never eaten pork but having seen pigs run and having served as a dating assistant more than Changguang, Gwen is still an innocent young man, and the joke just now was just Changguang teasing him by taking advantage of his age.

But now...

On the other side, seeing the comical expression on Changguang's delicate face, Gwen's smile deepened. He leaned back in his chair, crossed his right leg, and looked at Changguang.

"..."

Seeing Gwen's smug look, Changguang's eyebrows twitched involuntarily, and he felt as if he had suddenly become inferior.

"Cough...

"A scholar should be viewed with new eyes after three days' absence," this Divine Land Chinese proverb seems to be true indeed.

With a light cough, Changguang tried to regain his home turf.

"Gwen, you've grown a lot in the months I've been gone. You're a mature adult now, aren't you?"

As he spoke, Changguang winked at Gwen, the meaning of which was self-evident.

"It seems you're quite knowledgeable, Changguang..."

Gwen smiled and shrugged.

"However, I didn't leave this time to go sightseeing. I spent more than a month pretending to be a middle school student in the territory of a madman of the Anti-Entropy faction, and I even ate a nuclear weapon when I left."

If I hadn't been prepared, I would be perfectly cooked by now.

"Nuclear weapons?"

Upon hearing this, Changguang sat up straight, her pretty face no longer showing the teasing from before, but instead revealing the focus and seriousness of a scholar. Her brows were furrowed as she looked Gwen up and down, as if she was worried about something.

"That thing from the Far East Incident a few days ago?"

"You went to intercept that missile?"

Although the battle a few days ago had nothing to do with Changguang was still quite concerned about this suddenly appearing super weapon.

Papers in this field had already been published in the last century. However, despite the existence of Honkai Energy and Honkai Fission Bomb, weapons developed based on these theories had never been put into practice. Therefore, when Changguang learned that someone had actually quietly produced such a weapon and even put it into actual combat, he was quite surprised.

However, since the matter involves the Anti-Entropy anti-entropy faction, a lot of data still needs some time to be sorted before it can be sent back, so Changguang still has the leisure to chat with Gwen here.

"Yes, I was indeed in charge of part of the missile interception mission, and then I won the lottery—"

Gwen didn't hide anything from Changguang, nodding in agreement with a hint of helplessness in his expression.

"Can you imagine how I felt when I saw that missile raise the barrier?"

Then the broken shield disappeared shortly afterward, detonating the bomb inside.

"If I hadn't been one step ahead, Changguang, you'd probably be attending my funeral as a friend right now."

Upon hearing Gwen's words, Changguang's gaze towards Gwen took on a more meaningful tone—

You brat, I rarely show you any concern, and you're bragging to me like this?

However, before the Changguang could strike, Gwen thought of a problem and his expression turned serious—

"By the way, Changguang, if I remember correctly, you also participated in some of the design work for Yue Tian, right?"

283

Chapter 283 Changguang's Admonition.

"Yes, that's right."

Upon hearing this, Changguang suppressed his urge to reprimand Gwen and nodded in agreement. Then, realizing something, he asked in surprise.

"Is the moon on you?"

"That's right. Because the mission was quite challenging, Bishop Otto entrusted the Moon Sky to me."

Gwen nodded and readily agreed.

"Could you really be Otto's illegitimate son?"

Upon receiving affirmation, Changguang's doubts almost came out spontaneously.

"?"

Upon hearing Gwen tilted his head slightly—

No, warden, is this something you can say out loud?

"Cough..."

Realizing his slip of the tongue, Changguang coughed tactically, trying to cover up what he had just said.

Although he privately complains about Otto, Changguang outwardly shows great respect for his superior.

"So, Yue Tian helped you survive that explosion?"

Pretending not to see Gwen's strange gaze, Changguang asked with a serious expression.

"But... that probably isn't enough, is it?"

Although the Moon's barrier has a very high maximum power, with the data I have now, it shouldn't be able to withstand that explosion.

"Oh..."

Looking at Changguang's Changguang, Gwen chuckled and didn't expose Changguang's little thoughts, and said with a smile.

"Well... I'm not sure, since I didn't try to withstand the attack with Yue Tian."

As for the specifics, you might need to research it yourself, Changguang.

Then--"

With that, Gwen took off the Syrian war-damaged version of the Moon Sky watch and tossed it to Changguang.

"Hey, watch out!"

Although he knew that Moonbeam wouldn't break from such a small movement, Changguang still hurriedly caught Moonbeam's watch, which made Gwen even wider.

What have you been doing?

Looking at the battle-damaged wristwatch in his hand, Changguang found it hard to imagine what Gwen had gone through to turn the Yue Tian Summoner, which was in the form of a wristwatch, into such a terrible state.

"It's time to test your wisdom, Changguang."

Gwen smiled and didn't explain his situation at the time.

"Okay, okay, it's a confidentiality agreement, right? I know."

Changguang rolled his eyes at Gwen with a charming expression, stood up with the Moonwatch in hand, and walked to the computer to the side to physically connect the Moonwatch amidst a series of crisp sounds of his heels tapping the ground.

The person he was chatting with had to go to work halfway through, Gwen didn't mind and continued to sit leisurely in his chair.

Perhaps it was the truth revealed by Otto that stirred up certain emotions in Gwen, or perhaps it was the emotional backlash caused by finally temporarily resolving Otto's threat; in any case, Gwen just didn't want to do anything right now.

On the other hand, Changguang was far from being as leisurely as Gwen.

As he watched the log files and system feedback flashing across the screen, a deep frown almost formed on his smooth forehead.

With immense surprise, Changguang continued to scroll down, and as she looked at the outrageous records, the surprise on her pretty face not only did not dissipate, but became even more difficult to suppress.

After a moment, Changguang, who had just glanced at the Changguang, suddenly turned around, looked at the leisurely Gwen beside him, and asked with some surprise and uncertainty:

"Where did you find this unidentified alien energy source? It actually destroyed the entire Moon-Heaven-Earth Energy System, leaving only a few independently operating subsystems?"

"Hey... it's a secret!"

Gwen chuckled, raised a finger and shook it gently, then shut Changguang up with two words.

"Smack!"

Changguang slapped his forehead, trying to rein in the wildly diverging thoughts in his mind.

Having worked at Schicksal for so long and having some understanding of Otto's true nature, Changguang clearly knows that there are many things it's better not to know.

"Oh..."

Seeing the conflicted expression on Changguang's face, Gwen couldn't help but feel a surge of pleasure. He chuckled and stopped watching the show, speaking with a pointed remark.

"Of course, although it is classified, you may receive some research assignments in the Changguang, and you will naturally get the answer then."

"..."

Upon hearing this, Changguang lowered his hand from his forehead and stared intently at Gwen.

The somewhat unfamiliar gaze made Gwen feel a little uncomfortable.

Immediately, before Gwen could speak, Changguang's voice reached his ears—

"Tell me, how many applications do you want me to write?"

I'll write it now.

"..."

Looking at Changguang, whose expression was calm but whose eyes held a certain resolute will, Gwen realized that Changguang had probably been triggered by some strange switch, so he became serious and tried to comfort Changguang.

"Changguang, don't rush. This special energy is still in a relatively dangerous state and cannot be directly put into research. We need to wait for a while until its safety improves before we can start research."

Unexpectedly, upon receiving Gwen's reply, Changguang's eyes darted around, and his expression, which had been calm to the point of being somewhat frightening, suddenly became more complex as he looked at Gwen with a smile—

"Yes, you said it..."

I want priority access to the research.

As he spoke, Changguang strode over to Gwen's side, his legs, which looked exceptionally long and encased in thermal stockings. Under Gwen's gaze that seemed to say, "Are you kidding me?", he leaned down and lightly tapped Gwen's cheek, smiling as he spoke.

"I've already paid the deposit, it's a deal between us now."

"Isn't this considered forcing a sale?"

Feeling the dampness on his cheek, Gwen asked somewhat awkwardly.

"Um?"

Changguang looked at Gwen, his hands cupped to his chest, making Gwen feel an immense sense of oppression.

"Is it because you think the deposit is too small?"

How greedy of you...

As he spoke with a grin, Changguang was about to lean down again when Gwen raised his hand to stop him—

"Stop!

If you keep doing this, I'm going to refuse to do the research.

"Oh?

So it really was your little secret...

Upon hearing this, Changguang revealed a mocking expression, like a weasel that had stolen a chicken, confirming that this was not a trick by Otto, but rather a secret belonging to Gwen, just like that abnormal leveling speed.

This also made Changguang even more interested in Gwen.

"..."
