Mobius, later known as the Little Aeon of Abundance!
"And you were also noticed by the Aeon of Abundance, weren't you?" Chen Li said.
"Hmm." Mobius continued to nod.
"In fact, the glimpse of the Aeon of Intellect and the glimpse of the Aeon of Abundance came at the same time. After I combined the Medicine Master's Legacy and conceived the seed of life for the first time, I held a scalpel and wondered What If I could create the world of my dreams if I could operate on a planet or even a world," Mobius said, squinting.
"???"
As it turns out, Mobius did not embarrass Thirteen Arbiter-Generals at all.
Or perhaps Mobius was the one who was the most unsung hero.
However, the glimpse of the Aeon of Intellect is understandable, but what is the purpose of Abundance?
Is it because the transmissibility of the seed of life seems to be similar to the Abundance blessing that the Yaoshi bestows upon all living beings in the world?
Think about it carefully: What If Mobius transformed the Seed of Life into the Seed of Abundance and gave it away for free to life in other worlds, what would be the difference between Mobius and the Aeon of Abundance?
Mobius happened to be the kind of researcher who didn't care much about his own research results and would never mind giving them away to others.
However, being glanced at by the Aeon doesn't mean you'll be invited to be Emanator, nor does it mean you'll be invited into the Genius Society. It simply means you've embarked on Path.
Invitation to the Genius Society requires the personal presence of the Erudition.
"Speaking of which, I have a question," Elysia asked, raising her hand.
"What's the problem?"
"Do planets count as life? What If you stick a scalpel into the earth, can you extract its potential energy and cause it to degenerate?"
"Good question." Mobius nodded reassuringly.
I never expected Elysia to use her brain.
"In some respects, soil is lifeless, but with soil, water, sunlight, and some nutrients, life can emerge. Therefore, I think planets may not be life itself, but they are a component of life. But unfortunately, I still can't detect the Life Force of planets." At this point, Mobius couldn't help but look at Chen Li.
Why are you looking at me?
"I believe that planets are life, and the world is life, but simply inserting a scalpel into the earth cannot perform surgery on planets and the world. Do you have any ideas?" Mobius asked.
"No, not at all." Chen Li shook his head frantically.
"You answered so readily, that's not like you, my dear benefactor. According to the contract, all my experimental subjects belong to you. Aren't you really tempted?" Mobius pressed close to Chen Li's body, bringing his lips to Chen Li's ear, his words full of seduction.
"Calm down."
"Let's invest some more. For example... how about we create a Miraculous Item that can observe the trajectory of life?" Mobius wanted to find the life nodes of planets or worlds.
Theoretically, Path of Abundance could help Mobius, but Mobius's Power of Abundance is somewhat misguided...
Moreover, it's better to ask Chen Li for help than to try it yourself.
"Not so good, you're almost the chosen one of Destruction," Chen Li complained.
"Path of Destruction? Yes. When I inserted this scalpel into the roots of the Ambrosial Arbor and sensed its Life Force, I couldn't help but wonder what would happen What If Ambrosial Arbor's potential elsewhere. At that moment, the Aeon of Destruction glanced at me," Mobius said casually.
"Don't do anything reckless!" Chen Li grabbed Mobius's face with both hands.
"Don't worry, I haven't embarked on the Path of Destruction. Who knows what got into that Aeon of Destruction he wanted to look at me?" Mobius shook his head.
"Is it possible that aimless Destruction like yours is what the Aeon of Destruction loves most?"
"I have no interest in Destruction; I only want to pursue the infinite." Mobius shook his head.
"You'd better be." Chen Li reached out and placed his hand on Mobius's head, casually ruffling her hair.
As expected, we really need to control Mobius.
In the Previous Civilization, there were two other geniuses like Mobius: Vill-V and Mebius.
But Mobius was the craziest.
"If I'm honest, will you create Miraculous Item for me to detect Life Force?" Mobius asked quietly after smoothing his hair.
"It depends on your performance."
Chapter 187 Mobius, historically known as the Aeon of Abundance!
"I never imagined that just stopping by to meet a friend while accompanying Elysia on a tour of the Xianzhou would lead to such a huge hidden risk. Jing Yuan, I'm so sorry," Chen Li sighed.
Although Chen Li had told Jing Yuan long ago that his friends were not to be underestimated.
But Chen Li himself hadn't expected these lights to be so fuel-intensive.
Judging from the current situation, before Phantylia can even hand over the Stellaron to the Medicine Master's Legacy, Mobius will be able to single-handedly destroy the entire Xianzhou.
Although on the surface it appears that Ambrosial Arbor has been sealed at the bottom of the Ancient Sea, Ambrosial Arbor roots have long been embedded in the entire Xianzhou. If no preparations are made in advance, either destroying Ambrosial Arbor instantly or Ambrosial Arbor it could cause the Xianzhou to suffer a great loss.
"Don't look at me like that. I know what I'm doing. Make bold hypotheses, verify them carefully. And of course, conduct experiments with the utmost caution," Mobius reiterated.
"You'd better be careful, dear Mobius, using your supernatural powers, or I'll show you what it means for supernatural powers to be no match for fate," Chen Li said with a smile.
"What kind of ridiculous title is that? Anyway, don't worry, I'll be perfectly well-behaved until I get the Miraculous Item you promised me that allows me to see Life Force. Besides, I'm not interested in Destruction the world; I just want to pursue infinity," Mobius said.
"When did I agree to have this Miraculous Item crafted for you?"
"It will happen sooner or later."
"..." Chen Li really couldn't refute this point.
If there was already an expert like Ruan Mei in the field of life cultivation, Mobius might have created a repetitive persona if he were to be enthusiastic about creating life. But now Mobius has clearly taken a different path.
While the Miraculous Item was undoubtedly a great help to Mobius, if Mobius had been born in the Honkai: Star Rail Universe from the beginning, he might have still developed in this direction.
Because this world has its Path.
The manifestation of the Power of Abundance varies from person to person. If Mobius had not had this scalpel, the effect of the Power of Abundance that Mobius obtained might not have been a simple catalysis, but rather a synthesis—a non-directional synthesis.
Thinking about it that way, it would be better to let Mobius use this scalpel, at least it wouldn't cause Mobius to suddenly discover something uncontrollable and extraordinary.
Confiscating Mobius's scalpel would indeed be a waste.
Because Mobius's research on the Seed of Life is highly consistent with the Gift of Abundance bestowed upon all beings in the world by the Yaoshi, it can both cause great chaos in the world and bring blessings to countless beings.
The blessings of Abundance are selfless, but the Aeon of Abundance never judges whether the request is reasonable.
To be honest, Chen Li always felt that it was very un -the Hunt of the Hunt Aeon to fail to catch up with the Aeon of Abundance.
Until recently, when Chen Li was reading a book called "Peeping into the Mysteries of the Yi Mirror" in the Tai Bu Division library, it recorded. "[The Reignbow Arbiter tirelessly the Hunt the immortal abominations created by the 'Abundance' Yaoshi.]"
However, Chen Li also read an unofficial history. According to the records, when the Medicine Seeker from the Xianzhou asked the Aeon of Abundance for Seeking Medicine, the Aeon of Abundance did not agree immediately. Instead, he asked the Xianzhou to offer a handsome man as his concubine, and Lan was sent up...
The reason Lan became the Hunt Aeon was that after several hundred years, the Aeon of Abundance got tired of Lan and threw her back into the Xianzhou. The strange looks from the people around her and the ruthlessness of the Aeon of Abundance enraged Lan. Driven by love turned to hate, Lan instantly ascended to the Aeon and hunted down the Aeon of Abundance for thousands of years in the name of revenge!
Chen Li immediately threw the unofficial history book away.
Damn Fictional Historians!
You dare to fabricate history about the Aeon?
One thing I'm curious about is, What If you said in the name of a blasphemer, "I was there, and I can vouch for what he said!", how many Imaginary Value would you get?
"..."
Chen Li didn't know how much Imaginary Value he would gain; Chen Li only knew that he might be able to witness just how abundant the martial virtue of the Xianzhou natives truly was.
"Mobius, take my advice. Don't go down the path of crime, and don't follow the path of the Aeon of Abundance. I don't want to be like the Hunt Aeon, constantly chasing after you and cleaning up your messes," Chen Li suddenly said, putting his arm around Mobius's shoulder.
Mobius, also known as the Little Aeon of Abundance!
"What nonsense are you talking about? Shouldn't your first thought be that I will use this scalpel to cultivate seeds that can transform planets or even the world, so you are reluctant to take my scalpel away and should even invest more?" Mobius tilted his head.
"Mobius, you actually know you can use this scalpel for good deeds?" Chen Li, somewhat surprised.
"...I know better than you what the life seeds I've researched can do. What If there were a planet covered in snow and ice, I could cultivate seeds that are resistant to cold and freezing, and even gradually change the snow and ice environment. Moreover, if I add a highly reproductive trait to the seeds, I could transform an entire planet into a paradise in less than a year with just one seed," Mobius said.
"I'm very satisfied that you have this understanding. Keep it up." Chen Li gave a thumbs up.
"But this is really boring," Mobius said casually.
"But this can attract investment," Chen Li reminded him.
"That's a question for you, the investor, to consider, since I've sold you all my experimental products."
"Emmm..." Chen Li began to think while looking up at the sky.
"Speaking of which... Mobius, What If you can cultivate seeds that counteract specific environments, could you create biological seeds that can Honkai energy or counter Honkai energy?" Elysia asked curiously.
"Yes, but no."
"???"
"Because to create a seed that can counter a certain environment, you first need a biological sample that can adapt to or counter that environment. And so far, I haven't discovered any organisms that can grow in Honkai energy." Mobius said, while staring at Elysia.
Why are you looking at me like that?
"...except for the Herrschers," Mobius said.
"..."
"Unfortunately, the current Moth Chasing Flame hasn't been able to capture a single living Herrscher, and doing so would mean sacrificing a living Herrscher. In the original civilization timeline, I, who possess the scalpel, have never achieved anything in this regard, firstly because living Herrschers are hard to find, and secondly because the Moth Chasing Flame's higher-ups wouldn't allow it. Of course, all of the above is just my speculation," Mobius said casually.
Moreover, before embarking on the Path of Wisdom, Mobius could only judge the general direction of evolution, but not the final outcome.
This means that Mobius may need more than just a living Herrscher.
Were there any Herrscher were captured while still alive in the Previous Civilization? Yes, Herrscher, there were quite a few.
The Herrscher of Reason is one, and some individuals among the Herrscher of a Thousand have also been captured. In addition, there is the Herrscher of Corruption and... the Herrscher of the Human has been hiding in the Moth Chasing Flame.
The samples of the Herrscher of Reason were extremely precious, so it was impossible to give them to Mobius for experimentation.
The Thousand Herrscher are unclear; perhaps they're too weak, or perhaps they've been consistently failing.
The Herrscher of Corruption is because she wasn't Herrscher when she was alive, but became Herrscher after death, yet she no longer had "life" and instead became an electronic virus.
The Herrscher of the Human...
"I knew Dr. Mobius was the best to me. The future Dr. Mobius noticed my abnormality but didn't want to do anything, it must be because he likes me, right?" Elysia hugged Mobius tightly and rubbed against him.
"Get away from me, you annoying woman." Mobius tried to push Elysia away with disgust, but he couldn't budge her at all.
"Don't want."
"Chen Li, what are you doing standing there? Quickly help me pull this woman away." Mobius had no choice but to ask Chen Li for help.
"I was thinking, you could really make this scalpel work in your hands, but the Previous Civilization still failed. Just how weak were the higher-ups in that Previous Civilization? No way, I'll have to go back and give those higher-ups a good beating later," Chen Li said, stroking his chin.
Because Chen Li didn't expect Mobius to use the scalpel to create some kind of life seed, the scalpel didn't increase the probability of the observation results.
This means that this Miraculous Item is still a developmental Miraculous Item, and it will still fail many times, and will still require a lot of funding and experimental support.
However, because of the shadow Chen Li left on the Previous Civilization's higher-ups in the original timeline, they subconsciously distanced themselves from everyone associated with Chen Li, which resulted in Mobius's experiment not having enough funding...
Of course, it's also possible that, without being able to observe the probability, the experiment's outcome might be manipulated by Heaven's Will or destiny, preventing it from ever succeeding.
Just like in theory, someone will definitely win the lottery, but in the case of rigged games, no one will ever win the lottery.
"Ahem, Elysia, stay away from me." After Elysia finally let go, Mobius said as he hid behind Chen Li.
"Come on, Dr. Mobius, let me give you some more Aili energy."
"No need! In short, Chen Li, you have five things to do now." Mobius held up four fingers.
Which five items?
"First, go find the Void Archive, because my experimental records might be kept there."
"No problem." Chen Li nodded.
"Second, create for me Miraculous Item that can reveal traces of Life Force."
We'll talk about that later.
"Third, help me find Klein. Right now, Blanka's mind is full of Hen and Gretel, and she can't do her job as an assistant at all."
"But Klein might still be a child laborer."
"It won't be long, it's not a big problem. We've already Deliverance, why would we care about child labor?"
"Okay." Chen Li nodded.
"Fourth, I need to collect enough unique biological samples that are Life Force, as this is the basis for my research."
"No problem, I can go find Ruan Mei." Chen Li nodded.
