Ling Xi winked at Elysia, seemingly hinting at something.

"Puff..."

Elysia burst out laughing, then tilted her head slightly and gently kissed Ling Xi on the cheek. She smiled at Mobius and said, "My best friend, you won't be angry that I did this, will you?"

"Hmph, only for today..."

Clearly, ever since that live stream, Mobius knew that Elysia truly had feelings for Ling Xi, but... at this moment, she didn't want to say anything, after all...

It's perfectly normal for someone as outstanding as Ling Xi to be liked by Elysia, and besides...

The scene of Ling Xi protecting Elysia that day would probably move any girl... well, maybe even a boy!

Therefore, Mobius tacitly approved of Elysia and Ling Xi's relationship.

Ling Xi: "??? Holy crap, what happened? The Doctor actually..."

"Hey-hey..."

Elysia smiled, then looked at Ling Xi, and before Ling Xi could even react, she kissed Ling Xi on the lips...

Ling Xi: "???"

Mobius: "???"

Chapter 248: Ling, Youth Version, hope!

"Elysia, shut up..."

Instantly, Mobius became displeased. Although he had just said it was only for today, he hadn't asked this girl to do such a thing in front of him.

Wow!

Elysia released Ling Xi and then hugged Ling Xi's neck, saying with a frightened look, "Ling Xi, your Doctor is so scary, unlike me, who only feels sorry for you."

Ling Xi: "???" Elysia, something's wrong with you?

"Elysia, I'm getting angry..."

At this moment, Mobius was genuinely annoyed. Although he knew very well that this was Elysia's personality, he just felt a little uncomfortable.

"Hehe, okay, okay, just kidding..."

Fortunately, Elysia had a very accurate grasp of Mobius's personality. Just as he was about to get angry, she quickly let go of Ling Xi and gently asked, "Ling Xi, are you hungry? Is there anything you'd like to eat? I can make it for you."

"Mmm..."

She hadn't realized it before, but after Elysia asked her that, Ling Xi realized that she was really... damn hungry!

So Ling Xi laughed and said, "Well... although I really want to eat the food that Elysia makes, I'm starving right now, so I'll just go to the cafeteria."

"Okay, come on, I'll go to the cafeteria with you."

Elysia immediately grabbed Ling Xi's arm, ready to take him to lunch.

"Elysia, didn't you already eat?"

Mobius grabbed Ling Xi's left arm and pulled Ling Xi over, scoffing, "So, you don't need to bother with this. I'll go with Ling Xi."

"Hey-hey..."

Elysia was still holding onto Ling Xi's other arm and said with a smile, "I can't help it, I'm still growing, so I didn't eat enough just now and I want to eat again!"

"Hmph, Elysia, be careful you don't get fat and no one will want you..."

Mobius couldn't help but retort to Elysia.

"It's okay, I'd be happy if nobody wanted me, so I could shamelessly stay."

Elysia didn't care at all, after all, getting fat was absolutely impossible for her.

Mobius: "..." I have never seen such a shameless person!

Ling Xi "..."

Ling Xi was used to this, silently got out of bed, put on her shoes, and prepared to go have lunch, but...

Just after Ling Xi got out of bed, she suddenly noticed something strange, which was...

Elysia and the Doctor are about the same height, while I am about five centimeters taller Elysia, which is why we can often stand together and do some intimate things, um... I mean, intimate things like kissing!

When he looked at Elysia at eye level back then, the first thing he saw was her forehead and hair, but now...

Why is it that what appears in my field of vision is Elysia's... chin and neck?

Besides, at this height... I can no longer see Elysia's heart through the gaps!

Turning to look at the Doctor again, she found it was the same? Could it be that these two were really still growing, just as Elysia had said?

"What's wrong, Ling Xi?"

Seeing Ling Xi looking a bit dazed, Elysia looked over with a smile.

"Ugh... Elysia, I..."

Ling Xi then noticed that her voice... Holy crap, it sounded a bit like a child's voice!

"Um, Ling Xi..."

At this moment, Mobius also looked over and said with a somewhat embarrassed smile, "Well... after all, it's the first time using new technology, so there were a few minor problems during the surgery."

"It's okay, I think it's quite cute. Now I understand why you like Ling Xi so much, Seele, because..."

Elysia's eyes sparkled as she looked at Ling Xi, and she laughed, "This size is perfect! You can hug her, you can cuddle her, and she can do all the things you're supposed to do. It's just amazing! Ling Xi, let's hug again..."

As she spoke, Elysia hugged Ling Xi again, nuzzling Ling Xi face affectionately, looking completely content...

Ling Xi: "..." I mean...

Ling Xi broke free from Elysia's embrace and rushed to the mirror, where she saw a familiar yet unfamiliar version of herself, just like...

This is me from several years ago. My face is more youthful now, and I'm shorter than I am now. This... it's not just similar, it's exactly me from several years ago!

Elysia also came over and hugged Ling Xi again, laughing happily, "Don't run away, let me hug you a little longer..."

"Hmm... although... well..."

Mobius also arrived here. Looking at Ling Xi in the mirror, he smiled somewhat awkwardly and said, "Although this was an accident, I think it's quite nice, rather cute."

Ling Xi "..."

"So, what exactly happened? What did you do to me?"

At this moment, Ling Xi was truly bewildered. What on earth had happened? Why did she wake up to find herself several years younger? If she had aged several years, she could explain it away by having slept for several years, but...

What's going on with this situation where people are getting younger and younger, almost like teenagers?

"Well... that's a long story, Elysia, why don't you tell me..."

After hesitating for a moment, Mobius decisively asked Elysia to help explain, since Elysia was better at communication. Although the girl would inevitably embellish some unfounded details, the general plot was fine.

"No problem!"

Elysia hugged Ling Xi again, nuzzling Ling Xi face affectionately, and said with a smile, "Ling Xi, let's go to the cafeteria first, and we can talk slowly in a private room..."

"Good..."

Ling Xi did not refuse, after all... she really wanted to know the truth.

If this technology were sold to Qin Shi Huang in the future, would it really become a topic of conversation around the world two thousand years after Qin Shi Huang?

Perhaps this is how Previous Era achieved the unification of written language!

Soon, the three arrived at a private room in the research lab's cafeteria. Although it was called a cafeteria, it was set up like a high-end restaurant, after all, the Doctor was not short of money!

"Then, Ling Xi."

After ordering, Elysia smiled and said, "Let me explain everything that has happened over the past month to you from the beginning..."

"Wait a minute... a month?"

Ling Xi felt a little confused and tentatively asked, "I... didn't I only sleep for a few days?"

"Look..."

Without explaining, Elysia handed the date on her phone to Ling Xi.

Ling Xi: "..." Goodness, it really is a month later! Seele's winter vacation is almost over...

"Um, okay..."

Finally, Ling Xi rubbed her forehead and smiled at the Pink Elf older sister beside her, "Elysia, tell me about what's been happening lately..."

Chapter 249: The Alchemist Fairy Girl!

"It all started a month ago after you defeated the Fourth Herrscher. At that time, your body had already Honkai to the point of 80%, and you were in a deep coma. However, our current technology is simply incapable of curing this condition, so..."

"We can only put you in Life Support Pod and then try to rescue you, but as I just said, with our current technology, it's useless, so..."

Elysia smiled slightly and said, "Your Dr. Mobius used a method that is still considered radical even now to implant Honkai Beast genes into you, thereby giving your body extremely strong Honkai Energy Adaptability, and thus the Honkai Disease was cured without treatment."

"Wait, implanting Honkai Beast genes?"

Ling Xi was momentarily stunned, because having read the manga, he knew exactly what would happen after implanting Honkai Beast genes... no, it should be said that injecting the Hypervariable Factor would cause this, because...

This is the origin of the Fused Warrior!

However, in the original storyline, shouldn't it be that after the Seventh Herrscher appeared, Kevin was the first test subject and Dr. Doctor Mobius led the first Hypervariable Surgery?

In the original storyline, that happened at least three years later, but...

He never expected that he would become the first Fused Warrior, and that Doctor Mobius, who led the experiment, would become his own Dr. Mobius...

At least one thing remains the same: both surgeries were performed by wives for their husbands, but...

Ling Xi was panicking. She knew that Kevin from the Previous Era had undergone this Hypervariable Surgery, which was why he and Mebius never truly ended up physically together. And now, Mobius was performing the same surgery on her...

Holy crap, I don't want to become like this!

However, this shouldn't happen to me, since Mobius and Elysia had already hugged me when I woke up, and...

Even now, this girl is still rubbing against me.

"Yes, it's the gene of Honkai Beast, and..."

Elysia smiled slightly and said, "It's still the gene of the Shesha Honkai Beast that we killed in Changkong City last time."

"Shesha ..."

Ling Xi nodded thoughtfully. Thank goodness, although it was also Honkai Beast, at least it didn't have the "Ice Pig" gene. Moreover, among the Fused Warrior of the Previous Era, it seemed that only Kevin had this inability to make contact with people.

Therefore, you shouldn't worry too much about not being able to contact other people.

"So, it's because you implanted Shesha's genes into me that my body was able to recover completely?"

Listening to Elysia's explanation, Ling Xi also checked her physical condition again. It could truly be said that she had recovered completely, with no signs of being eroded by Honkai Energy at all, and she even felt like she had inexhaustible strength.

"That's about it, although... there were indeed a few unexpected things that happened during the process."

Elysia touched her nose and chuckled, "Well... although your body quickly integrated Shesha's genes and made them your own after they were implanted, however..."

"And because your body was so weak at the time, in the end..."

Elysia spread her hands and laughed, "It seems that your body started to automatically devour your own cells, and then, like the initial stem cells, it re-divided and recombined the cells, and finally your body became the near-perfect state it is now."

"Oh, I get it, I get it!"

Ling Xi had studied biological science with Mobius for half a year, so she understood these basic terms and concepts. She asked, "So, although my body is still my body, it's essentially become a completely new state?"

"Hmm, that's one way to explain it, and..."

As she spoke, Elysia smiled and opened her phone's photo album, saying, "You were even cuter before today than you are now..."

"Pfft... Holy crap, what the hell is this?"

Looking at the photo in Elysia's hand, Ling Xi almost coughed up blood, because the photo showed a boy who was only about ten years old, and...

It looks just like me... wait... there's Elysia and Mobius in the photo too, this is me, isn't it?

"Hehe, as I said, it's because your cells don't have enough energy to fully recombine into your original body form, so you can only form a smaller state."

Elysia smiled and put away her phone, then hugged Ling Xi's neck and gently rubbed her nose against it, laughing, "After all, you used Sasha Gene, right? So being resurrected and shrunken is in line with Shesha's character setting, isn't it? Ling Xi... from now on... you have to call me Big Sister."

"Oh, right..."

Elysia suddenly muttered to herself, "If I did that to you now, wouldn't I be taken away by the Flame-Chasing Moths for being an alchemist? But thinking about it is kind of exciting, it's just... what a pity."
