"An elite squad has already been dispatched, along with a special operations squad led by an S-rank member of the Poisoned Pupae team, whose five members are all at least A-rank!"

"Now we'll definitely be able to destroy that monster."

"I heard that Mobius seems to want Shesha, what do you think?"

"Giving it to her is not out of the question, after all, it's a joint research project, but... the matter of the Herrscher Core also needs to be discussed."

"Heh, that so-called Ling Xi is powerful, but we can still fight against Honkai Beast. This time, we can still defeat Shesha without his power!"

"At that time, Mobius should take the initiative to ask us to share Shesha's information."

Because Mobius has been so prominent lately, and with Ling Xi by his side, the higher-ups at Flame-Chasing Moths Mobius been holding their breath for a while. So this time, they directly dispatched an elite squad from Flame-Chasing Moths headquarters, a squad with ample experience in fighting Honkai Beast.

In addition, they borrowed an A-level squad led by an S-level member from the Poisoned Pupae. In total, the number of combat personnel alone reached nearly 100. If the regular troops providing logistical support and cooperating in the combat are included, the total number of personnel exceeds 1,000.

And all these people were mobilized just to kill or even keep alive that new type of Honkai Beast, Shesha!

At the same time, they also wanted to prove themselves, since the current situation was rather passive. As for the outcome...

Hmph, a combat force of nearly a thousand people fighting against an enemy whose strength is estimated to be only at the level of Chariot-class Honkai Beast, is there any need to say what the result will be?

In short, no matter what, the advantage is in my hands when there are a thousand people against one Honkai Beast!

At home, after Ling Xi accompanied Seele for a while, the two played games together for a bit. Finally Seele went to take a shower to rest, while Ling Xi returned to his room...

"Hi, Ling Xi!"

As soon as Ling Xi opened the door, she found a pink fairy sitting on the edge of the bed, smiling and greeting her.

"Huh?"

Ling Xi stepped out, glanced at the room number, and said somewhat speechlessly, "Elysia, this is my room."

"Heh, what's yours is mine, isn't it?"

Elysia didn't hold back at all, flopped onto the bed, and snorted, "I cried for so long and you didn't even come to comfort me, hmph, you big jerk."

"Stop messing around, you were clearly the one who deliberately tricked me just now."

Ling Xi rolled her eyes at Elysia, but didn't rush Elysia to agree. After entering the room, she closed the door behind her and asked, "So, what brings you here this time?"

"Hey, really, did I come to see you because I need something?"

Elysia sat up, shrugged helplessly, and then smiled, "Actually, it's nothing. I'm just curious, there are still six days left. How do you plan to handle Seele?"

"How do I handle that? It's my own... cough pfft... you... what did you say?"

Ling Xi was only halfway through her answer when she realized something was wrong. How did this girl know?

"Hehe..."

Elysia just smiled and said, "Well, actually, I overheard it by accident. I was planning to come and catch up with you yesterday, but Mobius was there too, so I didn't show up and ended up overhearing it."

Ling Xi "..."

After a slight hesitation, Ling Xi explained, "Elysia, I didn't... I didn't want to do that to Seele..."

"Don't worry, I know."

Elysia smiled slightly and said, "After all, who would dare to question the feelings of a fool who would fight Seele Third Herrscher for Seele? I think... Mobius knew this too, which is why she accepted Seele."

"But it wasn't fully accepted either, was it?"

Ling Xi smiled helplessly, "After all... when I think about how I approached Seele for this purpose, I feel a little... guilty."

"So you're the idiot..."

Elysia seemed to want to tap Ling Xi on the head, but in the end she slowly lowered her hand and said helplessly, "Expressing affection is just a formality. True affection is shown here..."

As she spoke, Elysia placed her finger over Ling Xi's heart and smiled slightly, "As long as you have each other in your heart, then formalities don't matter. If you still feel guilty about this, then... it only shows that you don't truly consider Seele as one of your own, because..."

"You don't trust Seele, and you're worried that she'll leave you after Seele finds out the truth!"

Chapter 181: Do you want to sleep with Miss Fairy?

"I..."

Elysia's words left Ling Xi speechless. Indeed...

He didn't dare tell Seele about the situation Seele 'd obtained with ulterior motives, because it would seem like he was scheming against her, even though Seele had said she'd always be with him, and he'd already won her over enough in Changkong City...

If Seele knew, even if she didn't leave, she would definitely feel very disappointed, feeling deceived once again.

"So, are you planning to keep dragging this on?"

Elysia didn't stand on ceremony, immediately lying down on Ling Xi's lap. Looking at Ling Xi's face, she smiled and said, "Because of worry, you're afraid to face it. If you ask me, even if a week passes like this, you and Seele still won't complete Mobius's mission, of course..."

Elysia laughed again, "Mobius certainly won't really drive Seele away. She always says I'm manipulating people, but actually I'm just a little too sincere, so it seems like I'm saying things that aren't true, but in reality..."

Elysia scoffed, "Mobius is the real master of manipulating people's hearts. Weren't you tricked into coming to the lab by her? First, she used her salary, then she used herself... In short... Don't you think you're in a situation where you're willingly being deceived by Mobius right now?"

"What do you mean by deception? This is called mutual affection, and we can both get what we want from each other."

Ling Xi directly refuted this, stating that although her marriage to Mobius was indeed a whirlwind romance, and they had almost no emotional foundation before officially getting together, then...

Their relationship quickly heated up after they got together, and it's become the norm now!

Therefore, there is a certain emotional foundation between myself and Mobius. Of course, the main reason is probably because... I agree with Mobius's ideas, although I do agree with them very much, after all...

Humanity that stagnates will only be eliminated.

"What do you want?"

Elysia nodded thoughtfully. "That thing you fed me last time?"

Ling Xi "..."

"Haha, just kidding, just kidding."

Elysia quickly waved her hand to indicate that she was joking, but at the same time she couldn't help but complain, "But speaking of which, Mobius really has good taste. She just randomly picked a husband with Herrscher- level strength. If I had known this, I should have gotten down to business in Changkong City. Otherwise, people would think that I only approached you because of your strength, Ling Xi."

"Eh..."

Ling Xi hesitated for a moment, then gently stroked Elysia's forehead and smiled, "No, Elysia, I... know your feelings, so you don't need to worry about what you just said."

Ling Xi wasn't entirely clear about Elysia's thoughts, but Ling Xi knew that Elysia had been interested in her even before they were in Changkong City. So... Elysia didn't choose to approach her because of the Herrscher power; the two were completely unrelated!

"But I'm worried..."

Elysia looked a little aggrieved. "What if someone says something sarcastic to you, making you think I'm the kind of person who approaches you with ulterior motives? What should I do then?"

"I already said I wouldn't."

This was the first time Ling Xi had seen Elysia with such an expression, so she quickly comforted her with a smile, "After all, we started making contact in Changkong City, so I know what kind of person you are, Elysia. Besides..."

At this point, Ling Xi quietly added, "To be honest, Elysia, I... really like you, so even if you come to me with some little secret, I won't mind!"

"You mean... really?"

Elysia seemed somewhat surprised, but also a little happy. This was... the first time she had ever heard Ling Xi say that he liked her!

"Of course it's true."

Ling Xi nodded helplessly, then looked at Elysia and asked curiously, "By the way... Elysia, when did you start worrying about these kinds of things?"

To be honest, Ling Xi felt that Elysia was acting a bit strange tonight, and it felt... not like Elysia's personality.

"Hehe, because... I was just pretending."

Elysia sat up abruptly, smiling at Ling Xi. "Ling Xi, isn't what I was worried about just now similar to what you're worried about Seele now? I'm worried you'll think I approached you with ulterior motives, while you're worried Seele will think you approached her with ulterior motives, but actually..."

Elysia chuckled softly, "My relationship with you is definitely not comparable to your relationship with Seele, right? And you're willing to accept me, who has a little ulterior motive, into your life, so... why do you think Seele would care about someone who truly likes and cares about her, and who approaches her with a little secret?"

"Eh..."

After listening to Elysia's words, Ling Xi immediately realized that she had indeed underestimated Seele.

"So, have you figured it out?"

Seeing Ling Xi's gradually cheerful expression, Elysia also smiled. This guy is such a hassle. He's clearly her Seele, but she still has to help her comfort him!

"Yes, thank you, Elysia, but..."

Ling Xi smiled and looked at Elysia, "There was something wrong with what you just said."

"Oh? Really? Which sentence?"

Upon hearing this, Elysia became genuinely curious. Had she said something wrong?

"That is..."

Ling Xi pounced on Elysia and pinned her down on the bed.

"Hey... what are you doing?"

Elysia was startled. This time she wasn't faking it; she was genuinely terrified. Could it be... that this guy finally couldn't resist his beastly nature and wanted to eat her?

"Elysia ..."

However, Ling Xi simply held Elysia in her arms and made no further move. She just whispered gently, "In my heart, whether it's Mobius, Seele, or you... everyone... is equally important, so..."

Holding Elysia close, he whispered in Elysia ear, "What you just said about how your relationship with me isn't as good as Seele's... that's wrong!"

"Eh..."

Upon hearing this, Elysia felt as if she had been electrocuted. Perhaps... this is what it feels like to like someone.

The two stayed together quietly, neither of them speaking, as if they couldn't bear to interrupt this beautiful moment.

"Ling Xi ..."

After a long while, Elysia smiled and looked at Ling Xi, "How much longer do you want to... hold me like this?"

"As long as Elysia is willing, the longer the better."

At this moment, Ling Xi also liked Elysia very much, both because Elysia had just comforted him and because... he really liked this fairy lady!

"Snort..."

In response, Elysia simply gave a deliberate hum and then whispered, "Hey, Ling Xi, how about... you stay with me tonight?"

Chapter 182: Kneel down like a dog...

Leaning close to Ling Xi's ear, Elysia smiled gently and asked, "Ling Xi, how about... you stay with me tonight?"

"Elysia ..."

Hearing Elysia's words, this was... a blatant hint!

So, Ling Xi smiled and looked at Elysia, finally uttering a single word with utmost gentleness...

"Roll!"

Elysia: "???"

"Hmph, trying to trick me again, huh?"

Ling Xi smiled sullenly, "Given your current condition, you clearly can't do anything, so... if I agree, then tonight will be another storytelling session, right?"

"Huh? What did you say? I didn't know that."

Elysia decisively pretended to be stupid.

"Alright, alright, Elysia, you should get some rest."

At this moment, Ling Xi released Elysia and urged the girl to leave quickly, since it was already late and Ling Xi didn't want to tell Elysia any stories tonight.

"Hmph, they call you 'darling' when they need you, but when they don't, they just want you to leave, right? So true."

Elysia looked annoyed and snorted, "I was just a little touched, and this is all you do? Humph, don't come begging me later."

"I didn't mean to send you away, it's just..."

Ling Xi scratched his head and laughed, "Isn't it already quite late? So, you should get some rest, or you won't have any energy tomorrow."

"Hmph..."

Elysia continued humming softly, but showed no intention of leaving. Instead, a mischievous smile crept across her face, and finally...

"Hey!"

Elysia pounced on Ling Xi and pinned her down, grinning mischievously, "But you look pretty energetic right now, don't you? Your Doctor isn't home right now, this is a rare opportunity, aren't you going to do something?"
