Bait for Mobius.
Snakes, after all, are creatures adept at lurking in the shadows...
"But your goal is evolution, isn't it?"
Gwen, however, remained unmoved.
"A snake that wants to transform into a dragon cannot remain in the shadows."
"Oh?
Serpent to Dragon Transformation?
Is it abnormal development?
Mobius said without turning his head.
"But that's after the new life forms came along, and lifestyles changed."
"It's not simply biological evolution, but rather Eastern mythology..."
Hmm... a saying in modern civilization's mythology—
Through continuous cultivation and strengthening, the snake eventually evolved into a dragon soaring through the heavens.
But if a snake dwells in a dark corner for too long, never looking up at the vast sky, it will lose its ambition to soar through the heavens.
"..."
Upon hearing Gwen's explanation, Mobius paused in his forward motion, turned back, and gave Gwen a deep look.
"Do you need my help?"
Meeting those vertical pupils that seemed to be scrutinizing his neck, Gwen remained unfazed and asked with a smile.
"...casual."
After staring at Gwen for a long time, Mobius turned around and continued walking.
After taking only a couple of steps, Mobius stopped and looked up—
In this dark and gloomy world, a dazzling light suddenly burst forth from the sky, causing Mobius, who was looking at it subconsciously, to squint.
After a moment, Mobius adjusted to the light, and he could see that a sun had appeared on the dark horizon, illuminating this once dark and desolate place in Hunan, and the originally gloomy and lonely world was filled with bright light.
"How are you feeling? Don't you feel much better?"
Gwen, who had sculpted a sun and placed it in the sky, looked at Mobius, who was gazing at the heavens, and asked with a smile.
"This is unnecessary..."
This time, Mobius didn't turn back to look at Gwen; he simply gave a casual rebuke and continued on his way.
"So be it, it's all unnecessary. At least it will make you feel better, Doctor."
Gwen smiled and shook his head, then followed in Mobius's footsteps.
But upon hearing Gwen's words, Mobius's heart stirred—
It seems that, in the distant past, someone had said something similar to her...
Who is it?
Yes...
As his thoughts drifted, Mobius had already led Gwen into his laboratory.
Perhaps because of the presence of an extra sun in the sky, the research institute, which was originally dimly lit, was now brightly lit.
After a thorough review, Gwen looked at Mobius, who was staring at the report with a furrowed brow and deep in thought, and asked with a smile.
"So, did they find anything?"
Dr. Mobius?
"That's strange."
Mobius rubbed his temples, put down the test results, and looked Gwen up and down with a very strange gaze—
"Based on your physical characteristics and examination results, you should be a descendant of Kevin's bloodline in the present civilization."
Thanks to your strength, the Honkai Beast Factor, which should have stabilized as it was passed down through bloodlines, has become active again.
However, those Honkai Beast Factors that should have caused you great trouble seemed to have done nothing, showing no signs of becoming active.
It's like... something on you is suppressing them, making them afraid to even move..."
As she spoke, Mobius stuck out her pink tongue and licked her dry lips, her eyes, which were fixed on Gwen, seemed to gleam with light.
That burning gaze gave Gwen the almost unsettling feeling that Mobius wanted to tear off his clothes, dissect his chest, and thoroughly examine this strange being.
Or rather, this is not an illusion, but a fact.
"In other words, the Honkai Beast factors in those bloodlines are currently only suppressed and cannot fully unleash their power, right?"
Ignoring Mobius's terrifying gaze, Gwen stroked his chin and asked in return.
"That's right, that's exactly it."
Upon hearing Gwen's question, the light in Mobius's eyes shone even brighter—
"If you want to integrate the forces involved, I have quite a few options to choose from. Would you like to take a look?"
As he spoke, Mobius picked up the tablet beside him, slid it gently across the table, and then slid it to Gwen's side.
"Certainly..."
Gwen spoke, he picked up his tablet and began to examine Mobius's plans.
After watching for a while, Gwen looked up with a strange expression.
"How?"
Mobius asked with eager eyes.
"Doctor, may I ask if your surname is Chu?"
Gwen, however, gave an irrelevant answer.
In Gwen's mind, the only way to solve this problem seemed to be to learn from the Dumb Goose in the story, enter that special Imaginary Space, and directly shatter it with violence, turning it into his own power.
While this plan sounds equally implausible, Mobius's plans are far more absurd.

Chapter 452 The Bait for Mobius.
"What's the meaning?"
Mobius, who hasn't read the original work of the infinite flow genre, completely missed the point in Gwen's words.
"Your plans..."
Gwen tossed the tablet Mobius handed him onto the table, then looked at the smiling Mobius with a rather strange expression.
"Are you really not trying to kill me quickly so you can dissect me and keep me in the lab?"
"Have you been watching too many movies?"
Upon hearing this, Mobius crossed his arms and gave a cold snort—
"Only a fool would think of dissecting such a rare and unique case as yours."
"But your plans..."
Gwen tapped the tablet beside him—
"It looks like they want to turn the test subjects into corpses for their collection."
"Because these are the only ways..."
Mobius shrugged in response to Gwen's accusations.
"By the time we realized this problem, there was no time left to conduct experimental research."
So, these are the preliminary plans available for you to choose from right now.
"That's a really hard-to-argue answer."
Upon hearing Gwen, Gwyn could only remain silent.
Given the deadly pace of the Previous Civilization, it's understandable that they said there wasn't time to solve this problem.
Before humanity could even devise a solution, the Honkai had already resulted in a devastating catastrophe that left only a dozen or so Flame-Chaser, eliminating any ground for further research.
"What, judging from your expression, you have other solutions?"
Seeing that Gwen did not show any disappointment, Mobius raised an eyebrow.
"I have a slight idea."
Gwen nodded slightly and shared the ideas he had gleaned from the original storyline with Mobius.
Then, Mobius returned the same look to Gwen—
"Isn't your plan actually aimed at turning you into a corpse?"
Compared to her plan, Gwen's method of directly storming into the Imaginary Space and violently resolving the Honkai Beast Factors by sorting through the Stigmata within is even more outrageous, okay?
"But given the necessary conditions, it's not impossible, is it?"
Meeting Mobius's monstrous gaze, Gwen smiled and shrugged.
"Whether by using the technology left behind by the Flame-Chasing Moth or by developing the powers of the Herrscher of the Void, they can send me there."
Once I get there, it'll be a matter of whether my fists are big enough.
On this point, I am quite confident.
"..."
Looking at Gwen, who seemed to be casually suggesting going downstairs for a cup of milk tea, Mobius remained silent for a moment, but still couldn't suppress the strange emotions in his heart—
"It seems I should suggest that Chrono give you the title of 'Decimation'."
"Forget it, I'm not some berserker..."
After a brief chat, Mobius, realizing that Gwen seemed to share some kind of unspoken understanding with him, subtly softened his gaze towards Gwen and picked up the report he had previously set down—
"Besides those strange Honkai Beast factors, there's something else about you that intrigues me..."
Which one?
Gwen, however, was not surprised at all, and leaned back in his chair to ask.
"There must be many things about me that would pique your curiosity."
"Gene."
Mobius flipped through the report in his hand, his eyes narrowed slightly, his vertical pupils fixed on Gwen—
"Although the genetic mapping and analysis have not yet been carried out, based on the simple test results, it seems that your genes have undergone some kind of change..."
In layman's terms...
Your genes may have undergone special mutations and recombinations, allowing your genes as a human being to exceed their original limits...
"I can answer that, but before that, I have one more question..."
Gwen was not surprised by this, but he asked another question first—
"Aren't you Flame-Chaser who have fused with Honkai Beast factors also beyond the limits of humanity?"
"That's different."
Faced with Gwen's question, Mobius showed no impatience whatsoever; in fact, a rather enigmatic smile appeared on her petite face.
"Flame-Chaser mainly rely on Honkai Beast Factors to break through their original limits, and the mortality rate during fusion surgery makes it impossible for them to become widespread."
But what appears to be on you is a mutation that is unrelated to the Honkai Beast factor and can only occur in the genes of humans themselves...
In short, it's what those so-called purebloods want... evolution.
"I must say, he truly lives up to his reputation as Dr. Mobius."
This change in level was discovered with just two simple checks.
Gwen clapped lightly and, under Mobius's urging gaze, began to explain the possible reasons for the strangeness of his own body.
