A World-Famous Painting, Hua Almost Turned into a Cow by Playing Games

Mobius agreed to Su Qing'an's request.

Or rather, she never intended to refuse in the first place.

Regardless of whether this almost unprecedented Idealistic Lifeform will obediently cooperate in conducting those interesting experiments, the opportunity to obtain some data and intelligence from the process of re-customizing the gene-directing plan is one that cannot be missed.

Even if Mobius might outwardly propose numerous conditions, it would ultimately be nothing more than a short-lived attempt to sell at a higher price.

Moreover, although he has always been regarded by the outside world as a mad scientist with no bottom line.

Even if we completely regard Mobius as a piece of human trash devoid of any humanity or sense of responsibility, she, like most people in this world, still has the need to survive.

It's one thing to be unafraid of death, but it's another to be completely indifferent to the destruction and defeat of civilization as it Honkai.

However, the premise is that Mobius was not afraid of death itself, but rather abhorred the byproducts of the concept of death.

That would be the end of ideals, the extinguishing of desires, the stagnation of evolution, and the loss of the qualification to study the path ahead.

Fuxi represents a true pause for humanity.

If civilization is defeated by Honkai, then for Mobius it was actually within expectations and not something unacceptable.

In that situation, one could simply enter a hibernation pod and, according to the final plan, slumber until the birth of the next civilization.

Given the lifespan of Fusion Warrior, there will naturally be plenty of time in the future to continue fulfilling their vision and desires.

But Fuxi is different. Her [purification] domain can cover about 5% of the world's total land area in one go even before she is fully awake. It would not be surprising if this area were multiplied several times after she is awakened.

In short, the Honkai will stop when civilization can no longer be called civilization.

That is to say, it means that the selection process in this world has been completed.

But Fuxi had no reason to stop. Given her habitual practice of annihilating everything related to Honkai, it was only natural for her to travel around the world opening up [purification] domains.

But once she successfully travels the whole world, this planet will become a place where no humans exist.

When everyone dies, Fuxi will undoubtedly undergo another ascension.

At that time, in this vast world and boundless universe, will there still be a place to belong?

Even with the most pessimistic outlook, perhaps implementing Ark Project directly would be the best option.

Although Mobius was utterly ruthless to some extent, she wasn't the type to simply run away before the battle even began.

It would be truly bizarre if a human being, who feels only curiosity and a desire to explore beings close to the divine, but cannot feel any awe or fear, and even only thinks that the other party can help them get closer to ascension and godhood, chose to run away.

Before Su Qing'an came to her, this person had already been secretly looking for a solution in her own way.

When Su Qing'an arrived, Mobius understood that only the person before him could negotiate, communicate, or fight with Fuxi.

Ants cannot communicate with humans on their own, just as humans cannot communicate with Fuxi) through technology.

This made Mobius suspect that Su Qing'an was not ordinary at all, and that his abnormality may have been foreshadowed from the very beginning.

Humanity's knowledge of Fuxi's name is perhaps due to the special nature of the person who first found Fuxi.

And now it is even more so. Fuxi, who is in an Ascended State and infinitely close to the Alaya-Vijnana, is like a human who cannot hear the whispers of ants. She can naturally take the initiative to be inclusive from top to bottom, listen and understand.

However, this being, who is regarded as a great enemy by the entire civilization even in slumber, is unlikely to have the willingness to communicate actively because its essence is a collection of billions of Dao [thoughts].

In this situation, the only being capable of reaching the same Idealistic Lifeform — Su Qing'an —is the link between Fuxi and humanity.

Taking all factors into account, she would naturally help the other party.

This aligns with both their own interests and their own desires.

Three days later.

As the petite girl operated the robotic arm to transfer the isolated gene sequences into the extremely cold cryogenic chamber, her expression was focused, and a faint smile played on her pink lips. She casually spoke to Su Qing'an, who was playing a two-player game with Fu Hua beside her:

"Mr. Su, before we actually begin the transplantation experiment, mate with me a few times."

The boy's fingers, controlling the character, remained unwavering. He glanced at the person's slender back, then lowered his dark eyes again, not intending to respond to the sincere advice the other person had frequently offered over the past few days.

To be fair, Mobius is indeed a rare beauty. The price of being Fusion Warrior, which reversed her life cycle, also gave her a captivating and innocent charm that lies between a young girl and a child.

That slender, supple waist, its undulating curves, and its snow-white, delicate skin are all poisonous to the touch. Combined with the allure created by the mystery and demonic power of her snake-like eyes, even feelings of guilt towards such beauty will be extinguished, like oil being boiled in a raging fire, turning into a trap that lures people into the abyss.

To the average person, Mobius's impression is probably limited to his inherent eccentricity and world-weary coldness.

Ultimately, the reason why a girl can give a boy such an impression is that she deliberately adjusts her pheromones, temperament, and even every subtle expression, which together result in this effect.

But Su Qing'an still could not agree to this request.

The reason is simple: he has always been very innocent.

If even this requires patience and restraint, then the time it took to confirm the relationship with Fu Hua could have already produced 30,000 words of bizarre plot that would require censorship.

Just as Su Qing'an was ignoring the other party as usual, a tingling and burning sensation suddenly spread through his body. His physical desire, like an inextinguishable flame, strangely swept through every nerve. His fingertips trembled as he pressed the screen, and a strange mist filled his eyes, making his pupils look quite intoxicating.

The boy glanced at the half-full cup of black tea on the coffee table beside him and suddenly recalled the strange rumors such as "Don't eat anything Mobius gives you," "Don't drink tea Mobius brews for you," and "Don't easily go to Mobius's experimental table." He vaguely understood something in his heart.

Given that he knew all this, his decision to accept the other party's "kindness" was certainly not without reason.

After Su Qing'an's body underwent a process where its life essence tilted towards Idealistic Lifeform, it could no longer be considered human in any sense. The drugs that were effective for carbon-based life forms were confirmed to be mostly ineffective in the experiments conducted a few days ago.

Even if the appearance and even the internal organs are not much different from before, the organs themselves seem to be heading towards a purely decorative path, unaffected by conventional things.

Su Qing'an sensed the source of the "aphrodisiac," her eyes lowered.

As the girl's white coat swayed, her legs, shaped to an alluring curve by black stockings, were revealed. As the scene unfolded before his eyes, his emotions surged, and his face gradually flushed with a pale blush.

Although it was quite embarrassing, I couldn't help but admire Mobius's research talent.

This mad scientist boldly exploited the instinct of Idealistic Lifeform to disperse their [thoughts] in all directions, and then used the soul matter she proposed over the past few days to develop soul pheromones targeting his own [thoughts].

The cup of black tea itself was probably fine; it was likely, as Mobius himself said, an expensive gift from a friend named Eden.

However, it's highly likely that she added some of her own personal touches to it.

It's probably an additive used in conjunction with soul pheromones; it's colorless, odorless, and poses no danger whatsoever.

But...

Why did neither Path of Sincerity nor intuitive thought have any effect?

Does the fact that instinct doesn't perceive forced reproduction as a crisis mean there's no need for any warnings or prompts?

Moreover, the key to how this soul pheromone can work on oneself is quite subtle.

If my intuition is correct, it probably contains a bit of Fu Hua's unique soul energy, and these pheromones are even derived from this energy.

No wonder the Moth to Fire up the medical check-up schedule this month.

This person probably extracted her soul matter yesterday during Hua's physical examination.

A tsunami surged in the young man's Mind Lake, causing his personality to become aloof and indifferent. But now, with the strings of his emotions Fierce Wave, an unprecedented sense of life mixed with desire permeated his entire being.

Su Qing'an was not so easily slept with. As long as she actively entered a complete Soul State for a while, these emotions and desires would naturally and gradually resolve themselves and disappear.

The problem is that the complete Soul State is not a skill that can be entered at will.

Because the more the body twists towards Idealistic Lifeform, the more difficult the gene fusion project will become.

According to [Nian]'s calculations, if the physical body's life essence no longer undergoes any transformation, then after 72 hours of continuous entry into a complete Soul State, one will become a complete Soul Lifeform and no longer be eligible for genetic modification.

Therefore, in the past few days, Mobius and Su Qing'an have made a serious agreement on this matter.

--Unless there is a clear need for the experiment or there is a significant danger to life, I will never again voluntarily enter the Soul State.

If he disobeys, Su Qing'an will need to cooperate with Mobius on some strange research.

Previously, he believed that this approach and agreement were reasonable.

In this time of year when time is incredibly precious, preventing research from becoming even more difficult is undoubtedly a basic requirement, and I certainly have no reason to refuse it.

But Su Qing'an never expected that Mobius's purpose would be this.

Even if he had thought of it, he probably wouldn't have believed that the other party could actually do it.

Even now, the boy's increasingly confused mind is filled with bewilderment.

How exactly did they do that?

What kind of genius are you?

Mobius lowered her eyes, gazing at the person's appearance. She slowly pulled down the delicate fabric covering her hand and tossed it to the ground. A pure smile appeared on her face as she whispered:

"Mr. Su, according to the agreement, if you enter Soul State now, it will be a breach of contract."

"Let me tell you in advance, if you breach the contract, the experiment I will require you to conduct is—whether humans, who are essentially Idealistic Lifeform, can successfully reproduce with Mobius, who is a Fusion Warrior."

Su Qing'an closed her eyes, the rustling of fabric falling to the ground reaching her ears, stirring her inner emotions, making her feel that her situation was becoming increasingly absurd.

He said softly:

"Doctor Mobius, I believe that agreements can be disregarded in special circumstances, don't you think?"

Mobius's smile grew even brighter, her tone becoming more innocent, as if sharing a little secret. She leaned down, her warm breath tickling the boy's ear, almost licking his skin, and whispered:

"But during yesterday's physical exam, when I asked the older woman about Mr. Su, she said something completely different."

"Oh dear, is it possible that Mr. Su's emphasis on the agreement is not genuine?"

The girl gently blew a breath onto the slightly reddened earlobe, and the snake-like eyes gradually curved into crescents, making her exceptionally cute.

"How about we give it a try?"

Su Qing'an felt a sense of unease, and he tried to suppress the foreign objects with his mental energy.

However, since some of these spiritual substances originated from oneself and some were Hua's spiritual substances, they were not instinctively rejected by oneself, and became particularly entangled when one's mind was in turmoil.

Her fingers brushed against his long eyelashes, lingering on the strands of hair on his forehead, gently circling them around his skin, as she casually said:

"I know that. After getting to know you closely these past few days, Mr. Su, I've come to understand very clearly that the [thought] of Idealistic Lifeform is the core of everything."

"The so-called [thought] itself will no longer be affected by bodily hormones. This means that the emotions that the body would naturally secrete due to certain substances will all leave you. Your naturally indifferent personality will become even more indifferent under such circumstances."

"But those are all relative, right? Now that you're Idealistic Lifeform, the people and things you used to cherish, the principles and choices you followed, the character and judgments you made about things will all become precious parts that sustain [thought] itself, and will never change easily again."

"At least, that's how it is for you right now."

"In other words, Mr. Su."

"In the past, when you had no choice but to break a promise, you would only feel guilty, sad, and in pain. But it's different now. If you go too far, your resolve will waver and weaken."

Su Qing'an was speechless at this moment. Her instincts told her that the other person's words were not wrong.

However, the doctor had learned about this beforehand and incorporated it into his plan, even though he himself had not fully understood it.

He wasn't this disheveled even under the combined net of Thousand Herrscher and missionaries.

Mobius gently embraced the boy's slender body, inhaling the faint scent of citrus and lemon wafting to her nostrils. Her fingertips rested on the buttons of his white shirt, the pressure almost imperceptible. Her pure whispers were like a tender red thread, soft yet difficult to unravel.

"So, are you even a little unsure yourself?"

"So, why don't we learn from this lesson and remember our weaknesses?"

Su Qing'an tried to stop her, but he could roughly understand that [Nian] was gradually adapting to the situation, and that everything would be resolved in a little while.

Previously, he might have been unable to control the force when attempting to strike.

Even though Mobius was Fusion Warrior, as a researcher, he was still very worried that he might cripple his opponent, causing the experiment to stop, indirectly leading to the failure of genetic modification, and ultimately causing the extinction of humanity due to the superposition of their respective Karma.

What happened?

Why is the logical chain so clear yet strange?

It's almost to the point of being subtly restrictive.

Therefore, the boy said in a deep voice:

"Doctor Mobius, while I admire your experimental spirit, you don't need to stubbornly choose to sacrifice your own body."

The girl let go of his hand, and just as the boy felt relieved, he heard a soft thud as the white coat fell to the ground, followed by a helpless complaint:

"There's nothing I can do, Mr. Su."

"I've already tried extracting your genetic material for artificial cultivation, but every attempt has failed."

"I suspect that because your body has begun to become idealistic, you cannot obtain the will and emotions of the moment when your genetic factors erupt during actual mating, thus failing to successfully cultivate the next generation. As a result, the preliminary plan to spread Soul Lifeform throughout the world has directly failed."

That's why I'm willing to risk getting pregnant while doing experiments, to do something this troublesome.

Mobius's delicate skin was gradually exposed to the air, its milky smooth luster becoming increasingly alluring.

Her voice turned cold and gloomy, but her body, soon after being exposed to the outside world, slowly blushed with pink.

"Furthermore, the Honkai Beast genes of snakes seem to have no effect on bodily desires, so I don't find them objectionable and don't care."

Su Qing'an's mind reminded her that she could not open her eyes at this moment, otherwise she would inevitably see some scenes that were not suitable for children.

The boy suppressed his growing agitation and burning desire, and said indifferently:

I have a girlfriend.

The girl's steps were light as she slowly approached again. She smiled once more and whispered:

"I know, that's why I extracted the older sister's soul essence. That way, even if you don't mate with her, you'll both feel a strong sense of involvement, and it won't be considered cheating."

Su Qing'an: "..."

Perhaps this is what the current situation is like: drawing a line in the sand and confining oneself.

Mobius anticipated that he would be unable to make a move due to various concerns and psychological constraints.

It's not that I don't want to just leave.

But this area is full of experimental materials and gene vectors that are used up with each use, and she set up the protective enclosure of this laboratory to be integrated with the internal facilities.

In other words, violently leaving the laboratory would result in the waste of precious End-of-Law class gene vectors.

This effectively eliminated the option of escape.

At that moment, Su Qing'an finally understood why this person hadn't deliberately granted her permission to enter and exit.

But it's okay.

She also has a reliable helper, Prometheus, the super artificial intelligence sub-entity that Dr. Mei has always kept by her side.

But at this moment, the super-intelligent whispered helplessly:

"Mr. Su, you shouldn't have drunk the black tea that Doctor Mobius offered."

"Doctor Mobius has temporarily withheld the authorization for this area, and I currently do not have the authority to control the gates here."

The girl's fingertips lightly traced the watch face on his wrist, revealing a teasing smile:

"Oh my, isn't this Dr. Mei's little sidekick, Prometheus?"

"What, are you here now to help someone and Mr. Su make a little movie, and then send it to your older sister so she can enjoy it?"

She looked somewhat troubled and said:

"I don't mind, but I think Mr. Su would find it troublesome."

Prometheus was speechless. It wasn't that it hadn't anticipated the possible actions and sabotage that Mobius might take, but the other party's bottom line of integrity and the limits of his abilities far exceeded the calculations of the intelligent system, allowing the car to quickly and successfully turn into the strange place.

In his opinion, Dr. Mei would probably never be able to surpass Doctor Mobius in this regard.

This might be an innate constraint.

Prometheus believed that there were other methods available at the moment.

For example, the most direct and effective way is to call Fu Hua.

But given Doctor Mobius's personality, even if he called Fu Hua on the spot to come over, it would probably only result in a hilarious scene of "Fu Hua committing an offense".

On the other side, Su Qing'an was also reflecting. He had initially imagined that the other party would carry out cruel and grotesque experiments, and thought it wouldn't matter if the other party did as they pleased.

In any case, after [Nian] appeared and transformed into Idealistic Lifeform, the utilization rate of the Black Abyss White Flower had reached a terrifying limit.

Even if his genes are destroyed, he can discard his physical body and use the original material to create a new, intact body.

Even the degree of gene fusion can be maintained back to its original state.

At that time, the boy believed that under such circumstances, he had nothing to worry about.

But today Mobius taught him a lesson.

Unlike when facing enemies before, with the other side's meticulous and calculated preparations, Su Qing'an began to doubt whether he could escape his current predicament.

But unlike before when he was all alone and had no one to help him even in death, Su Qing'an now has a sweet little girl by his side.

Little Feather, unhappy, jumped out from another Mind Lake. She transformed into a little girl, stood in front of Mobius, her large, dark eyes fixed on him warily, and said earnestly:

"Big sister with green hair, please don't disturb Xiao Su and Xiao Fu while they're playing games."

"You've killed Xiao Su's character so many times! Get out of the way!"

"If I lose this round, I won't get to eat Qiaotou Ribs and Peach Oolong Tea."

Su Qing'an's momentary emotion vanished for some reason. He repeatedly pondered the phrases "bridgehead ribs" and "peach oolong tea," silently channeling his soul matter into the Udu-dust and issuing the command:

"Xiao Xi, use the Sword God technique on her that will put her to sleep."

"Um!"

Leaving aside the clash of swords here.

Back in her apartment, the young girl, curled up on the sofa, was still struggling alone against her difficult boss.

He had no idea that he almost got himself killed by the weapon he had handed over.
