A Lot on Her Plate. / Vita: "You're Picking on Me!"

However, her mature and radiant face showed little sign of annoyance; instead, it was dominated by a rare shyness.

"Elizabeth's movements are quite clumsy; it seems I'm the first lucky one to taste it..."

Without any hesitation, Gwen wrapped his arm around Changguang's waist, pulling her voluptuous figure into his embrace, and teased her with a smile.

"What, are you not satisfied?"

Feeling Gwen's movements, the beautiful woman, her face flushed, gave Gwen a charmingly disdainful look, without resisting, and naturally lowered her head to Gwen.

"Satisfied, of course I'm satisfied, extremely satisfied."

Faced with Changguang's coquettish reproach, Gwen naturally agreed readily, inhaling the faint fragrance of herbs and trees in the beauty's hair.

Although he has been working overtime and not getting enough sleep lately, Changguang is clearly very conscious of his personal hygiene. His hair is not greasy at all, but instead has a pleasant fragrance that soothes the soul.

"If I had known it would still fall into your hands, I would have agreed immediately when Bishop Otto issued the mission a couple of years ago, and I could have received the special allowance for two more years."

Feeling Gwen's affection, Changguang slowly closed his eyes, enjoying the relaxation and intimacy of the moment.

"What mission?"

Gwen's heart skipped a beat; he had a vague sense of foreboding.

"So this is the mission that turned us into what we are now..."

Changguang's lips curled into an amusing smile as he looked up, amusement in his eyes.

"I still find it hard to believe that our Bishop Otto is actually working as a pimp, asking me, an old auntie, to give you, a junior high school student, some emotional growth."

"First of all, what he did wasn't pimping, but matchmaking."

Secondly, I was at least a high school student at the time.

Gwen responded calmly to the teasing gaze.

But in the end, Gwen also revealed a slight smile.

"Finally, our Elizabeth isn't some old auntie; she's graceful, mature, and charming..."

As he spoke, Gwen touched those pink lips again, savoring their sweetness.

"Glib-tongued..."

With a laugh and a scolding, Changguang quickly became immersed in this novel mucosal contact experiment.

Although she was inexperienced in matters of the heart, Changguang had finally moved beyond the realm of a naive young girl, allowing Gwen to experience a touch of mature charm.

And that subtle youthful naiveté beneath the surface of maturity possesses a unique charm.

Finally, they brought their two-year relationship into the open, and the couple naturally became very affectionate.

However, this was ultimately not a suitable place to conduct business, and Gwen decided to stop there.

After a few whispered words, the conversation between the two gradually returned to normal.

"How is the data from the Gneisenau I brought back coming along?"

Holding Changguang's voluptuous body in his arms, savoring its softness and delicacy, Gwen asked about the important matter.

"After being busy for so long, we have completed the initial summary."

459

Chapter 459 Beset by a host of matters.

With slightly heavy breathing Changguang gently slapped away Gwen's mischievous hand, tucked a stray strand of hair behind his ear, and sighed softly—

"Objectively speaking, the information you brought back is extremely valuable, enough to allow humanity to take a big step forward in the exploration of the Sea of Quantum."

However, it's still far from enough to simply reconnect the World Bubble within Bianca and the Stargazer lady back to the Imaginary Tree.

Perhaps, only by utilizing the Thousand Worlds, One Law and conducting a series of targeted and specialized experiments can we hope to succeed.

"We've really troubled Elizabeth..."

Knowing that this matter couldn't be accomplished by simply coming up with a solution on a whim, but rather required extensive and complex work from researchers like Changguang before any results could be achieved over a long period of time, Gwen rested his chin on her delicate shoulder and whispered into her earlobe.

"Hmm~"

Changguang let out Changguang moan as he felt a tickle near his ear, not resisting, and letting Gwen be affectionate with him—

When I was young, I was busy with my studies and felt that these feelings would only affect the speed of my research.

It's only when you get older that you realize how much you missed out on...

Well, perhaps going through it wasn't necessarily a good thing, but whenever I think about it, there's always a slight sense of regret.

Now that they have the opportunity to experience this once-thought-to-have, Changguang will certainly not let it slip by...

"Speaking of which, Changguang, do you know where the institution that conducts research on Stigmata Schicksal located?"

After another round of affection, Gwen.

"Yes, of course. I interned there for a while, but the professional gap was too big, and the prospects were bleak, so I haven't gone back."

The overseas Chinese association's Changguang nodded gently and asked curiously.

"Could it be that the Caslana family's Stigmata on your body have awakened?"

"Not yet. The Caslana family's Stigmata... are quite special, and there are many aspects of them that I'm not sure about."

Gwen shook his head and explained.

"Furthermore, my contact with the relevant departments was not because of myself—"

I have a friend who possesses some abilities related to Stigmata, such as forcibly activating the Stigmata genes in a person, causing the originally recessive Stigmata genes to be expressed, thereby awakening the Stigmata.

However, as you know, without the necessary conditions, forcibly awakening Stigmata will only lead to certain death.

So I want to see how far Schicksal has progressed in its research on Stigmata and Artificial Stigmata.

If possible, making some improvements to the current Artificial Stigmata could greatly improve the Valkyrie's condition.

"..."

Upon hearing Gwen's words, Changguang suddenly turned around, giving Gwen a strange sensation as he raised his hand and pressed it against Gwen's forehead.

"He doesn't have a fever..."

After confirming that Gwen's temperature was normal, Changguang muttered something, his face full of confusion.

"How could someone with my constitution possibly get a fever?"

Gwen rolled his eyes at Changguang and lightly slapped the plump, firm breasts that were rubbing against his thigh.

"I'm serious."

"Hiss..."

Changguang winced in pain, and whether intentionally or unintentionally, rubbed against Gwen's leg again. Just as Gwen was about to raise his hand again, he began to get down to business—

"If you really have such a friend, then perhaps things can really develop."

After all, Artificial Stigmata are related to the lives and combat effectiveness of the front-line Valkyrie. Although there hasn't been much progress in over a decade, investment has always been made.

"Okay, could you please ask for me?"

I might need to consult Bishop Otto about this later, since he's the one who knows the most about these things.

"So, it seems I'm far inferior to Bishop Otto..."

Changguang suddenly adopted a serious expression, which amused Gwen, who tightened his arms around the beauty.

"Don't talk nonsense, you are irreplaceable..."

"You speak so sweetly, come here..."

Changguang lightly touched Gwen Changguang a grin.

"By the way, besides the Stigmata, Changguang, do you know that Schicksal is currently conducting research on related human body modification technologies?"

For example, the Flame-Chaser technology left over from Previous Civilization ...

"This...

I've heard of it occasionally; it seems to exist, but it's very secretive. It appears to be an organization directly under Bishop Otto's control; you might need to ask him to find out.

Just as he was about to get intimate with Gwen for Changguang blinked upon hearing this, thought for a moment, and then replied.

However, despite saying this, Changguang's expression became much more serious—

"However, as far as I know, the relevant research seems to be related to Bishop Otto's beloved granddaughter, Theresa of the Far East Branch."

If it's not necessary, it's best not to ask directly...

If you want to help that vampire girl solve her problems, you could try subtly suggesting it.

"Ha... don't worry, he'll be a relatively reliable ally until I fail at something that's most important to our Bishop Otto— "

At least they won't betray you all the time.

Changguang was even willing to bring up Valkyrie Quicksilver at this time to remind him, Gwen felt a surge of emotion, but at the same time, he also revealed some of his secrets.

"Can you succeed?"

Upon hearing this, Changguang was not pleased but worried—

Changguang believed he knew Otto fairly well.

If Gwen is telling the truth, then if he fails, the future will be...

"Pretty close."

Gwen smiled and gave Changguang a somewhat reassuring answer, then continued.

"By the way, I'm also planning to conduct a controlled experiment for this—"

Does Schicksal possess a katana-type weapon that inherently possesses a remarkably low temperature?

"You mean... that Spirit Blade Frost Prison Ice Sky?"

Changguang, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, was surprised to hear this.

"If nothing unexpected happens, that should be it."

Gwen nodded.

How much do you know about that knife?

Tell me about it...

Upon receiving an affirmative answer, Changguang instantly perked up, swayed back, and sat sideways in Gwen's lap, leaning against Gwen's arm and looking up at Gwen with great interest.

Feeling the soft, full flesh clearly visible even through her clothes, Gwen felt a surge of desire, but due to the circumstances, he could only suppress it for the time being and began to tell Sakura's story...

"In that case, it explains the strangeness of that knife..."

After hearing Gwen's story, Changguang nodded slightly, but a look of confusion appeared on his face.

"But... does something like a time-freezing slash really exist?"

Moreover, it even managed to create a special magnetic field on the weapon that would still exist 50,000 years later, achieving a similar effect...

"It's not impossible."

Gwen shrugged, seemingly unfazed by the situation.

"After all, it was a warrior's Ultimate Ascension strike in the last moments of his life, so it's not surprising that it created a miracle."

460

Chapter 460 Vita: You're bullying me!

"All right..."

Hearing Gwen's lament, Changguang also sighed and stopped dwelling on it.

"I'll go with you to retrieve it from the warehouse later..."

Just as the two were talking, there was a sudden knock on the door—

Knock knock knock...

"Someone's coming!"
