Spirit of the Spring: Servant, Are You Confident You Can Help Me Get Dressed? (6k)
Then, Sparkle grabbed her fist and punched.
Although Sparkle didn't think she could harm the Aeon of Joy, the final result still caught Sparkle off guard.
Sparkle looked down and saw the familiar yellow banana peel at her feet.
"Where did you get this?" Sparkle asked calmly.
"I took it from the Great Herta. Use it quickly, I have to return it after you're done," Aha urged.
The next moment, with her senses distorted Sparkle fell to the ground with a thud.
However, there are gains and losses, and now the Sparkle have proven one thing.
That is, people actually laugh when they are extremely speechless.
Damn Aeon of Joy! Don't treat Sparkle like Japan just because Sparkle plays with kendama and wears geta!
Chapter 225 Spring Spirit: Familiar, are you confident you can help me get dressed? (6k)
"Chen Li, you can't go down this path anymore."
"You are an outstanding young person of the new century who aspires to Deliverance, how can you be infatuated with a moment's beauty!"
"Mmm, just one more bite."
"Elysia tastes really good!"
"... Alright, alright, stop chewing. If you keep chewing, you'll turn the Crystal into a giant Elysia," Vill-V said, pulling Chen Li's hand.
Vill-V used a machine to scan Elysia's body and found that the Crystal on her body combined the power of Beauty with the authority of the Herrscher of the Human, so almost no weapon could Shapeshifting or damage it. But unfortunately, Elysia ran into Chen Li.
"How is it? My carving skills are pretty good, aren't they?" Chen Li asked, pointing at the Crystal.
This is an extraordinary skill that Chen Li honed through the Divine Body Amber!
"Uh... Elysia would be very satisfied if she saw this statue, provided it wasn't gnawed out of your teeth," Vill-V retorted.
In order not to waste a single inch of Crystal and to ensure Elysia's safety, Chen Li carved the Crystal covering Elysia into Elysia's likeness, turning the Crystal into a giant Elysia.
"And there's also the Judgment of All Things," Chen Li explained.
"Yes, yes, so it's time to get down to business, right? You spent three whole hours watching Sparkle. Have you forgotten what we're supposed to do today?" Vill-V reminded her.
"I've been focused on the important thing, and collecting Joy Points is the most important thing right now," Chen Li said.
"Alright, so now it's time to get down to business." Vill-V completely ignored Chen Li's words.
"Hmm... Let's go, let's go to the Mobius Laboratory first."
"We're going to the Current Civilization to do only three things! Steal the Void Archive, steal the Void Archive, and damn it, steal the Void Archive!" Chen Li stood in the center of the Mobius Laboratory, excitedly slapping the laboratory table as he shouted.
This is the important thing that Vill-V mentioned.
For Vill-V and Mobius, the Void Archive, which contains all the knowledge of the entire Previous Civilization, is more important than all the other God Key combined.
Whether it's the details of the proposed and perfected Metamorphosis Surgery, the construction of the Moonlight Throne, the manufacturing method of the God Key, the research on Valkyrie Armor (the Valkyrie Armor in Honkai Impact 3rd was developed based on the Key of Blankness), the Armored Dolls, or most importantly, Dr. Mei's lifelong research— Stigmata!
All knowledge and treasures are contained within the Void Archive.
Although Mobius, Vill-V, or even Mebius who is still a high school student, could all work hard to reconstruct these things and would be able to do so even faster with a concrete approach, why not just copy the answers if they are available?
The Current Civilization's Schicksal lies in the fact that Otto acquired a great deal of excellent knowledge from Previous Civilization from the Void Archive, which enabled him to achieve a precipitous lead over Anti-Entropy in the field of technological research.
Otto was indeed a competent scientist, but without the Void Archive and the knowledge of Previous Civilization, his research could not have been as rich as it is today.
An individual's power is limited, but the power of a civilization is different.
If Previous Civilization, before the Mu Continent, the central region of the Previous Civilization, was sunk by the Ninth Herrscher, Dr. Mei would have been able to integrate the resources of the entire world and might have been able to fight the Herrscher of the End a standstill.
At least the Moonlight Throne is a pretty good solution.
Unfortunately, the later industrial system was no longer able to support the civilization in building more Moonlight Throne.
Therefore, obtaining the Void Archive is a necessary step now that the Previous Civilization is planning to rise again!
After all, leaving the Void Archive in Otto's hands would be a waste!
Otto knows nothing about the Void Archive.
Otto, a truly accomplished scientist, managed to find very little gold despite guarding the vast Void Archive! Can you believe it?
Sigh, you said that the consciousness in the Void Archive doesn't cooperate with Otto at all, which makes it so that Otto has to ask Fu Hua to use an instrument to find the location of the buried legacy from the previous text?
Then don't worry about it!
Since Otto can't control the Void Archive, it's a good opportunity to take it back and let Vill-V, the creator of the God Key, control it!
"Vill-V, are you really sure you know what kind of backup plan you will leave in the Void Archive in the future?" Chen Li couldn't help but look at Vill-V.
"Although I haven't experienced it myself, if I were to design the Void Archive, God Key crafted from the Core of Reason, I would definitely design that backdoor. You can rest assured about that. I know myself quite well," Vill-V said confidently.
"Besides, if the Void Archive doesn't obey, we can just switch to Void Archive. We only need the knowledge within the Void Archive; the Void Archive itself is not important." Vill-V pulled out her Persona Mask.
Although Vill-V kept saying things like "Let the Xianzhou stand up" and "Let the Moth Chasing Flame stand up," the most terrifying ability of the Persona Mask is actually the ability to forcibly seize control of any life form's body.
Because Vill-V's previous experiments only involved non-living things, the effects in this area weren't very obvious. But once intelligent beings are masked and their bodies are completely controlled by their own second personality, you'll realize you're wrong.
Theoretically speaking, a newly created second personality cannot suppress the first personality, but there are now hundreds of thousands of personalities in the Persona Mask!
No matter how powerful your primary personality is, it's impossible to kill all these personalities before hundreds of thousands of personalities are exhausted!
Moreover, even if Vill-V hasn't created the Void Archive yet, Vill-V is still confident in solving the problem of her future creations.
"What about the other God Key? Should we take them back?" Mobius asked casually.
"This..." Chen Li hesitated.
Although theoretically, all twelve God Key are relics left by the Previous Civilization, the Moth Chasing Flame, and it is justifiable to take them back, after Chen Li severed the connection between the Previous Civilization and the Current Civilization, Chen Li regarded the two as independent entities.
Apart from the Void Archive, a special God Key that embodies the wisdom of the Previous Civilization and is completely unusable by Otto, the Previous Civilization could have reforged the other God Key after defeating the Herrscher who appeared later.
Furthermore, since Vill-V and Mobius have already gone to the Honkai: Star Rail world for further studies, and with the help of three members of the Genius Society, the new God Key will be even more powerful!
But these 12 God Key, which have been passed down for 50,000 years, must contain some very valuable inscriptions.
"How about this, I'll just remove the additional entries from these God Key," Chen Li said.
Additional entries refer to the entries that an item gains over time and with the meaning that fate bestows upon it. For example, Chen Li once touched the Key of Constraint — the Oath of Judah —during the Second Honkai.
In addition to the attributes such as [Binding] and [Herrscher], this God Key also has attributes such as [Holy], [Faith], [Purity], and [Anti-loss].
Extracting these terms has little impact on the effects of the items themselves.
However, the most prominent entry in Oath of Judah is the [Bound] entry.
The same must be true for other items.
The most essential terms often shine brighter through the passage of time and the workings of fate! Just like... brewing wine.
It was so shiny that it made Chen Li drool.
"Understood. Pass the word down: retrieve all the God Key." Mobius turned to Vill-V and said.
"I'm still here, how come you're already spreading rumors?" Chen Li complained.
"Judging from your distressed expression, I know you want all the God Key. I was just stating what you were thinking. Is that wrong? Besides, if you want to know what entries are on those God Key, don't you need to touch them first?" Mobius shrugged.
"That's true... However, these God Key don't need to be consumed immediately. I'll use them when I need to forge Miraculous Item using these God Key. At the same time, I will also provide certain compensation to qualified God Key users, or forge a Miraculous Item for them. God Key users are often high-quality Artifact Wielder. If they can issue Forging Commission where the benefits outweigh the expenses, I will forge Miraculous Item for them," Chen Li said.
The entry, which had been brewing for 50,000 years, was far more valuable to Chen Li than the item itself.
A skilled Artifact Wielder can also enable Chen Li to acquire more Crystal.
Just like Mobius...
Chen Li had no doubt that Mobius would give him a big surprise later, such as generating a Miracle Card because of Mobius.
Chen Li creates Miraculous Item for clients, and after gifting them the Miraculous Item, he immediately gains the Miracle Power that the client could have created with those Miraculous Item.
However, if more Miracle are created under Chen Li's intervention, then when the Miracle overflow to a certain extent, additional Miracle Card will be generated.
Clearly, the Miracle created by Mobius was no ordinary Miracle, and a powerful blow was needed!
The value of the Miraculous Item is clearly greater than that of the God Key, so this is a mutually beneficial arrangement!
"The word 'qualified' is very interesting... Okay, Vill-V, pass on the message: retrieve all the God Key, and also retrieve the users of the God Key." Mobius said to Vill-V, who was in charge of recording the meeting.
"Um?"
"How can Chen Li know which God Key user is qualified if he doesn't bring them here?"
"That..."
"Stop with this and that, hurry up and talk to that Herrscher of the Void that you've been raising for so long, and who's almost become your shape, then find a way to teleport over there. Obtaining the Void Archive is urgent. I'm very curious about what level I can achieve by using a snake to replace Honkai beasts for fusion surgery." Mobius looked expectantly at the snake pinned to the experimental table with a scalpel in the distance.
Although Mobius was crazy, Mobius wasn't stupid. Without sufficient data to support his actions, he would have been living too long.
As the saying goes, one's appearance reflects one's heart.
The reverse is also true; one's appearance reflects one's soul.
Furthermore, both Kiana and the Queen of the Void are, strictly speaking, merely extensions of Sirin...
In this experimental subject named K423, which is a clone of the True Kiana's body, she is reborn, and both Kiana's soul and the soul of the Queen of the Void are shaped to resemble Kiana.
So...
"My kin, have you finished reading?" The Queen of the Void tugged at the hem of her clothes, trying to cover her lower body.
The Queen of the Void tried to pull at the hem of her clothes, as if that would cover up her overly revealing lower body.
The upper body was partially covered by a white veil, while the transparent blue skirt made the bikini bottom partially visible.
A slender waist, long, fair legs, and long, flowing white hair... she perfectly embodied the essence of Summer Vibe for Chen Li!
It's just a bit too summery... It seems like the summery atmosphere doesn't treat Chen Li like an outsider at all.
Freedom of choice in clothing!
The Queen had not paid much attention to Chen Li's request to visit, but if he could come to her location, it would certainly add some interest to her life.
Since the other party was someone she had once been related to, there was no need for the Queen to give her a formal reception.
However, upon seeing the boy who stood before her across space, the Queen of the Void felt an overwhelming sense of shame and inexplicable emotions.
These feelings, which the Queen of the Void had never experienced before, quickly filled her and swept over Queen of the Void heart, causing her cheeks to flush red, despite her usual aloof Queen of the Void.
When the Queen of the Void felt a little hot under that scorching gaze, she subconsciously lowered her head and finally realized what her overly free dressing style, which she had adopted because she was alone in this space, had brought her.
What's the difference between the lingerie I wear and the lingerie I wear for sex?
"Your Queen, are you wearing... underwear?" Chen Li hesitated before speaking.
"It's a swimsuit! A swimsuit!" the Queen of the Void shouted, somewhat out of control.
"Okay, okay, swimsuit, swimsuit," Chen Li quickly reassured him.
Chen Li didn't understand either. Even though underwear and swimsuits are the same style and cover almost the same parts, girls often fly into a rage when they are seen wearing underwear.
The situation is actually better when they perceive themselves as wearing a swimsuit.
"You are a familiar, why are you human!" The Herrscher of the Void's voice stammered, but there was no disgust in it.
"Your Queen, don't you like my appearance?" Chen Li tilted his head.
"No... no, not exactly." The Queen of the Void quickly shook her head.
The Queen quickly realized that her explanation was too hasty, making it seem as if she was trying to defend herself.
"None of your business?"
"Okay, okay, I don't care," Chen Li continued to reassure.
"... Of course I wasn't being mean to you. I just didn't expect you to be human." After a pause, the Queen of the Void said.
"I know, so Your Queen, please don't be so nervous," Chen Li continued to reassure her.
"... I'm not nervous! Turn around now and change your clothes!" After carefully observing Chen Li's expression and confirming that Chen Li did not show any unusual reaction to her words, the Queen of the Void secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The Queen of the Void didn't know why, but upon seeing Chen Li for the first time, she felt a surge of inexplicable emotions, as Queen of the Void emotions were somewhat out of control.
