Acheron: "Come Help Me in the Bath, Too"

Seeing Lin Shuang's worried expression, Acheron subconsciously wanted to pinch her cheek, but then he remembered his dirty hands and pressed his raised hand back down.

So Acheron shook his head and explained:

"Not many, just a small group. The leader of the insects wasn't very strong either; I killed it with a single strike. The main problem is that it's troublesome and very dirty."

Upon hearing this, Lin Shuang also checked Acheron's body and found no signs of injury.

Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief, and then pushed Acheron into the shower room.

"No wonder you went to the trouble of calling your sister to come back and take a bath. So that's why."

Lin Shuang, laughing and complaining through the frosted door, stuffed Acheron's clothes into the washing machine all at once.

Luckily, the bloodstains weren't dry yet, and the detergent from Xianzhou was quite potent. I just wonder if insect blood would be different.

If it can't be washed off, I'll have to buy something to clean it again tomorrow.

On the other side of the frosted door.

Acheron tilted his head back, letting the warm water droplets and steam fall on him, washing away the filth covering his body.

Even through the thin glass, a mere glance is enough to see Lin Shuang busily at work.

Upon hearing Lin Shuang's complaint, the corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up slightly.

"I didn't say 'at all costs,' I just shouted it for you because you liked it."

Acheron believed that if Lin Shuang had seen his disheveled appearance at the time, she definitely wouldn't have insisted that he call her "sister."

Although this person always talks a big game, he actually takes good care of her, this 'patient' with Remembrance, in every way.

It was Lin Shuang who made Acheron gradually start living like a human being again.

Lin Shuang started the washing machine outside, after hearing Acheron's voice mixed with the sound of water.

Smiling, he picked up Acheron's phone.

There were also bloody handprints on the phone, probably left by Acheron when he picked it up.

With that in mind, Lin Shuang took out a clean towel and began cleaning her phone at the sink.

However, as she worked on it, Lin Shuang suddenly realized a problem.

When Acheron returned, he had White-Haired Form hair and had removed his sword.

In other words, when Acheron called himself "sister," wasn't he in a completely different state?!

Thinking about this, an image involuntarily popped into my mind:

After annihilating the Swarm, Huang Quan, exuding a murderous aura and stained with blood everywhere, was in a place called Acheron.

Upon hearing the notification sound from his phone in his pocket, he held the knife in one hand and pulled out his phone with the other.

And so he remained there, his White-Haired Form unchanged, his bloodshot eyes fixed on the spot.

I pressed the voice input button and called myself "older sister".

"Hiss..."

Upon realizing this fact, Lin Shuang couldn't help but gasp.

Volume 1: Chapter 123 Acheron: Help Me Take a Bath Too

Cleaning up bloodstains is not something that can be done in a short time.

After seeing that the washing machine was working properly, Lin Shuang said goodbye and left the bathroom.

Sitting on the sofa, Lin Shuang scrolled through her phone, looking at the second card-drawing opportunity she had received from Firefly today.

Last time I drew a white card, I got a box of Oak Cake Roll that only have a special use for Firefly.

In the end, this box of cake rolls really boosted her Affection, and every time Firefly eats it, she will think of Lin Shuang.

The added value is not low.

But this time, Lin Shuang still wanted the transformation device more than anything else when drawing cards.

Let's be reasonable.

With a cute girl and mecha theme like Firefly, shouldn't she at least have a Kamen Rider transformation device to get pulled out?

Ultraman is fine too, since they're all tokusatsu anyway.

I've even gotten Full Load Bottle myself, so giving her a Build Driver isn't too much to ask, right?

Lin Shuang couldn't help but rub her hands together.

Draw a card!

A flash of green light appeared.

Something that Lin Shuang neither expected nor seemed entirely reasonable appeared before her:

[Hazard Trigger (Honkai-Adaptive Version)]

['Power-up items are like Herrscher Core unlockers for you. After all, you've never used either the Stellaron or the Heliobus at full power.']

['Of course, there will be side effects, but you won't die.']

"..."

Although this thing looks really cool in the show, can we at least have some enhancement items without any side effects?

Lin Shuang took out the red-themed enhancement item from the system.

Its texture and feel are much more formal than those plastic toys.

He's still handsome, but the system didn't even tell her what the side effects were.

They never do anything worthwhile, day after day.

While mentally complaining, Lin Shuang held the Hazard Trigger in her hand and carefully examined it with the [Mystic Seal of True Sight].

The side effect was discovered to be that after the restrictions on the Herrscher Core were lifted, exerting too much force could damage the body.

They certainly won't die, since medical technology and the Power of the Permanence are still there, but at the very least, someone will be seriously injured.

No wonder it wasn't written down; apparently, there wasn't a point where someone lost their temper.

That's alright.

It's a pity I can't use the transformation device; I can only stick it into that Greatsword.

It's somewhat of a Frankenstein's monster.

Shaking her head to stop thinking about it, Lin Shuang put away the trigger.

Because she heard Acheron calling her.

Puzzled, he got up and went into the bathroom, looking at the figure still showering and asking curiously:

Did you call me just now?

"Um, could you help me wash my hair? There's blood in it."

Acheron's voice came along with the sound of water. Lin Shuang sighed softly and reached out to open the door to the cubicle.

The rising steam, mixed with a slight smell of blood, hit her face, and the humid air immediately made Lin Shuang's clothes damp.

After the moisture dissipated a bit, they could see Acheron tidying up his long hair.

Even though she was bent over and had no decorations on her body.

Even just looking at her, Lin Shuang thought Acheron was extremely beautiful.

Her fair skin, moisturized by warm water, looked fresh and juicy, making one want to take a bite.

Her full breasts were faintly visible, and they trembled slightly with Acheron's movements.

Lin Shuang took a deep breath, then simply took off her shirt, walked over and gathered up Acheron's long hair, looking her over as she said:

"I don't believe what you just said anymore. The leader of the bugs must be strong, otherwise how could you be so dirty?"

"... It's really not that great for me."

Hearing Acheron's sophistry, Lin Shuang couldn't help but roll her eyes at her.

What kind of person are you? If the other side is really not that good, do you think you'd even get a single drop of blood on you?

Now not only are my clothes dirty, but even my hair looks like it's been drenched in blood. Who knows what kind of Monster that Swarm might be?

Lin Shuang thought of the enormous insects the Astral Express Crew encountered on their way to the Car-Wash Planet in the game.

She forgot her name, but she was definitely not someone to mess with. In the end, she escaped by riding in Train.

Who knows, what Acheron might encounter is something similar to that thing, or even stronger.

"The universe is really dangerous..."

Thinking of this, Lin Shuang couldn't help but sigh.

Acheron, who was still vigorously rubbing his hair, turned to look at Lin Shuang upon hearing this remark:

"It's okay, I'm here. I'll come to your rescue if you're in danger."

"..."

Lin Shuang was a little touched, but also a little amused. "The two of us are crammed into the bathroom, pulling your hair. Doesn't it feel weird to say that?"

"Okay, okay, it's all up to you now."

After saying that, he ignored her reaction and focused on Acheron's long hair.

Two more days passed after her date with the Firefly.

Lin Shuang suddenly had some free time, but the Xianzhou was filled with anxiety because the screening revealed too many problems.

Various rumors and opinions are rampant in the public.

Qingque has already been dragged back by the Lord Diviner to work overtime for several days.

Lin Shuang took some time to visit him and sensed that Qingque was about to unleash his Scythe of Annihilation.

Tingyun is also extremely busy; it's said he hasn't even been home for several days.

The entire Xianzhou Six Commissions are operating at high speed, and the Cloud Knights can be seen moving around in various departments every day.

Lin Shuang had already heard several versions of the rumor.

The most outrageous claim is that "Jing Yuan has been sidelined, Fu Xuan has seized command of the Cloud Knights, currently eliminating his rivals to secure his own rise to power."

According to Lin Shuang's observation, the Abundant Doses are behind these rumors.

I suspect the Abundant Doses has been active these past few days, probably trying to infiltrate the area and develop new informants.

Lin Shuang had no interest in inquiring about the secrets of the Xianzhou; she was simply curious whether Phantylia could really be so cunning.

Will they only appear when the Jianmu is revived and the plan is nearing completion?

If this person really acted that way, Lin Shuang would probably be unable to resist making a move against the Abundant Doses technique.

Even if the Abundant Doses are stripped away and a little provocation is made, a Lord Ravager should still have some face to save.

After all, he was the leader of the Antimatter Legion, and he had several colleagues with him. Phantylia himself didn't care, but the others did.

Just anyone can't ride roughshod over the Lord Ravager.

However, just as Lin Shuang was thinking this and had already started contacting Jing Yuan to discuss the specific details of the plan,

Someone Lin Shuang had almost forgotten suddenly appeared and sent Lin Shuang a message.

[Firefly: Miss Lin, are you still at Xianzhou Luofu?]

"Firefly?"

At this moment, Lin Shuang was passing the time on the Starskiff Haven.

When I saw my phone notification sound, I was wondering who was messaging me when this profile picture appeared.

I'm at a loss when it comes to Lin Shuang.

"... Oh well, I completely forgot about this big star. This is really bad timing."

With the recent major earthquake at Xianzhou Six Commissions, entry and exit at the Port are quite strict. This big star will probably be recognized when he goes through customs.
