Once the filter criteria were set and "OK" was clicked, the densely packed product page instantly emptied.

"I admit I was overthinking it..."

Silently abandoning his unrealistic fantasies, Gwen browsed the predominantly white items, occasionally interspersed with some blue ones, while studying the Planet Core Crystal in his hand.

For Gwen now, deciphering something involving the secrets of a planet just requires a little more time.

While Gwen was engrossed in his academic research, a faint spatial fluctuation flashed by, and a figure quietly slipped into Gwen's bedroom.

"Um?

Gwen, what you have in your hand is...

Elysia, who originally wanted to surprise Gwen, saw the energy crystal in Gwen's hand. Although she did not sense any energy fluctuations from it, she still subconsciously felt that this thing was not simple.

"Planet Core Crystal, roughly speaking, are the heart of a planet, the planetary life stone that connects the cosmic magnetic field with the energy that creates and proliferates life."

Gwen explained succinctly.

"..."

Upon hearing this explanation, Elysia, who had been curiously reaching out her slender finger to poke it, instantly withdrew her hand, staring intently at the energy crystal in Gwen's hand—

"Doesn't that mean that Gwen now holds the life of an entire planet in his hands?"

"Not entirely accurate, but if you don't look into it closely, that's certainly true..."

Gwen chuckled at the cautious look on Elysia's pretty face, then pulled her into his arms, his arms around her full yet firm waist, and kissed her delicate cheek.

"Moreover, if nothing unexpected happens, this should be an energy crystal from Mars in that world."

There's a high probability that this energy crystal can be used on Mars, our neighbor, to create... another life-bearing planet in our Solar System.

"Real?"

Upon hearing this, Elysia's eyes lit up.

"It's fake, it still needs to be verified. After all, they are just two similar worlds. When placed at the planetary level, there are still too many differences that can appear."

Before it can be truly used, some research on Mars is still needed.

Gwen casually handed the energy crystal to Elysia, smiling as he said...

"Moreover, the recovery of Mars is only the most basic part of it."

If we can analyze the key points and reproduce them to a certain extent, perhaps in the future we can turn all suitable planets within our sphere of influence into habitable planets at a relatively low cost.

Moreover, if we can achieve this, then bringing Griseo back won't be too difficult.

Doesn't Suo want to rebuild his home?

After the Honkai was resolved, wouldn't she crave a revived Venus?

"In Vita's words... it's probably because Sora will be so hungry she won't be able to walk away, right?"

Upon hearing Griseo, Elysia's eyes immediately lit up, her beautiful eyes sparkling with delight—

"Moreover, if such conditions really exist, then even if we wanted to drive her away, she would probably beg us to stay..."

After learning about Sa's past from Vita, Elysia felt a bit of sympathy for this poor soul who was also a victim of the Honkai.

However, even a pitiful person who dares to hurt Griseo is more hateful.

Therefore, Elysia was somewhat pleased that So might suffer a setback.

"Don't let Vita lead you astray..."

Gwen, hearing Elysia's playful tone, which was almost identical to Vita's, couldn't help but give her a somewhat serious reminder.

If Elysia becomes as petty and sleazy as Vita, he'll be the one who suffers the most.

"Hehe, Vita heard you say that~~"

Elysia covered her mouth and smiled, seemingly already able to imagine what kind of expression Vita would have.

"I'm just telling the truth, our Elysia is such a naive person, she's easily led astray..."

Gwen spoke, he leaned close to the girl's neck, gently inhaling her fragrance, his warm breath painting her fair skin with a blush.

"Is Eden already resting?"

Gently slipping his hand inside her clothes, caressing the smooth, jade-like skin beneath, Gwen spoke with a knowing look.

"Um..."

The night is still long...

Chapter 527 People's joys and sorrows are not shared.

Although Gwen was more interested in the actual propagation of life than in studying Planet Core Crystal.

However, in order to better study the origin of life in the future, Gwen also had to devote a lot of time and energy to studying the energy crystal that he had bought at a huge cost.

In that same room filled with various "Holy Relic," Gwen, who was studying the energy crystal in his hand, suddenly looked up and glanced to the side...

Black Abyss White Flower.

On this familiar Divine Keys, Gwen sensed a strange yet inexplicably familiar aura of a soul...

"This is..."

In a flash, Gwen appeared before the Divine Keys, carefully sensing the soul aura that gave him a strange sense of familiarity—

Gwen also sensed a similar fluctuation to Misterine in this unfamiliar soul aura.

So, Cecilia has been resurrected?

Just as Gwen was about to soothe the newly revived soul, the door was suddenly kicked open, and a figure rushed in.

Meeting Gwen's gaze, the newcomer finally caught her breath, realizing she had perhaps been rash, and her pretty face flushed red—

"Sorry, Gwen, I hope I didn't disturb you..."

As You Lan Dai Er apologized, he felt a pang of self-reproach.

"I feel like I've become less and less bound by boundaries since that incident..."

Will this make Gwen hate me?

Just as You Lan Dai Er was lost in thought, Gwen smiled and picked up the Black Abyss White Flower from the shelf—

"Of course not."

With that, Gwen handed the Black Abyss White Flower to the relieved blonde girl—

"Bianca, give it a try. Is the Black Abyss White Flower different from before?"

"Um?"

Somewhat puzzled, You Lan Dai Er accepted the Black Abyss White Flower, still somewhat confused—

"Gwen, have you made any improvements to the Black Abyss White Flower?"

As he spoke, You Lan Dai Er had already gained the right to use this Divine Keys, practiced it for a while, and soon looked at Gwen with bright eyes—

"It feels even more convenient to use than before."

It was as if... the Black Abyss White Flower had come to life, responding to me.

"No, there's just an extra soul inside."

Gwen shook his head slightly, revealing a somewhat mysterious smile.

"Another soul?"

You Lan Dai Er blinked, then a look of realization dawned on her face, and she exclaimed with delight—

"You mean, the predecessor who used this Divine Keys has awakened?"

As Gwen's bedmate, You Lan Dai Er was already aware of the details of Gwen's deal with Otto and knew that he had the ability to revive the souls of the dead.

"Smart, as expected of Bianca."

Gwen smiled and kissed the girl's delicate face, then said with a grin,

"Then... Bianca, guess who's been revived now?"

"Is it Senior Leanna?"

Or is it Cecilia- senpai?

Without hesitation, You Lan Dai Er gave two names.

Although she became an S-rank figure revered by thousands at a young age and obtained authorization from the Divine Keys, You Lan Dai Er did not become complacent in the slightest. Instead, she carefully studied the history of the Black Abyss White Flower.

During this process, You Lan Dai Er also learned about the lives of several users of the Black Abyss White Flower recorded in the annals, and realized that he was not yet worthy of this weapon, so he worked even harder to cultivate.

Therefore, You Lan Dai Er knew very well who this Divine Keys was most likely to awaken.

Although not as infamous as the Heavenly Fire Judgment, the price of using the Black Abyss White Flower is just as high, perhaps even more so.

The Heavenly Fire Judgment can theoretically be used by anyone, regardless of the cost.

To unleash the true power of both the Black Abyss White Flower and the Abyss Flower, one needs at least A-level strength.

However, if it is only Grade A, the only result of using it rashly is death.

Therefore, in the Schicksal Records, the only true users of the Black Abyss White Flower are Eleanor Schariac, Leanna Brigantia, and its predecessor, Cecilia Schariac.

You Lan Dai Er had some understanding of Gwen's abilities, guessed that the first to revive would naturally be Cecilia had lived the longest.

"Yes, if nothing unexpected happens, it will be this senior."

Gwen smiled and nodded as he sensed the soul that had quickly calmed down after being placed in You Lan Dai Er's hands.

"Very good!"

Clutching tightly the Black Abyss White Flower that gave him a feeling of perfect harmony, You Lan Dai Er Dale's handsome face was filled with surprise and delight.

"This will surely make Senior Theresa very happy."

Moreover, if Senior Kira knew, she would definitely be very happy!

"Okay, then let's tell them the good news next time we meet—"

Of course, I'm referring to Senior Kira.

As for Theresa ...

Thinking of Theresa, who had been transferred back to headquarters and was learning from Amber, Gwen hesitated whether to tell her.

"Let's tell Cecilia later, when she's able to speak."

You Lan Dai Er gently Black Abyss White Flower exterior, offering her suggestion—

"This will also increase her motivation to learn."

Although she was fooled by Otto's nonsense a few years ago and consumed too much Feather of Dust, Theresa had become somewhat self-destructive, is trying hard to regain her former self.

But some things, once changed, are very difficult to change back.

Resuming training is relatively easy, but after being a lazy bum for over a decade, expecting Theresa to throw herself into her studies and work with full energy and enthusiasm is truly asking too much.

"Um...

I think it's okay...

Upon hearing this, Gwen recalled the image of Theresa's pained expression that he had seen at Amber's, and couldn't help but smile—

As we all know, people's joys and sorrows are not shared. Seeing how the perpetually lazy person has to force himself to study and work, Gwen can happily have several drinks with Himeko.

"Then I'll leave the rest to you."

"I will return the Black Abyss White Flower to Gwen with utmost care, "You Lan Dai Er solemnly declared.

"If Cecilia can be resurrected, then Kiana's father, Siegfried, could also..."

Well...

Hopefully this will lessen Bishop Otto's sins a little..."

In the end, You Lan Dai Er couldn't help but sigh.

"Um..."

Gwen took the Black Abyss White Flower and carefully placed it back on the shelf, calming the restless spirit within.

"By the way, Bianca, why did you rush in like that? Did something happen?"
