Elysia paused for a moment, then asked seriously, "Do you think the method of letting the Honkai Beast' genes fall into a dormant state before injecting them is feasible?"

"Of course it's possible."

Mobius replied immediately, "After all, the Honkai Beast's genes are far too powerful for even a mammoth, let alone a human. The injection method we used to operate on Ling Xi was only the most basic form. If Ling Xi hadn't been so resilient and had such strong Honkai Energy resistance, he would have been killed by our surgery long ago."

Elysia: "..." What you're saying...

"Therefore, Ling Xi's suggestion is very feasible."

Mobius continued, "By putting the genes into a dormant state and then injecting them, allowing the body's genes to adapt to the Honkai genes and develop certain antibodies and resistance, and then reactivating them, the success rate should be greatly increased."

"Then how do we know when to reactivate the genes? After all, everyone's situation is different."

Elysia still seemed somewhat doubtful. Although Ling Xi's method did have its merits, she was also somewhat aware of the difficulties involved, especially the crucial point of activating genes at the right time.

"Then let's set a threshold!"

Mobius stated directly, "For example, when editing Honkai Beast genes, we assume that they are set to activate when encountering Honkai Energy Adaptability of 200HW. This way, we can ensure that most users have enough Honkai Energy Adaptability to accept this power when it is activated."

"Conversely, if no matter how much the user tries, the Honkai Energy Adaptability cannot reach the predetermined threshold, then the Honkai gene will never be activated. As for what kind of side effects will occur later, this still needs to be studied."

"Mmm..."

Upon hearing this, Elysia nodded thoughtfully and smiled, "It seems that the plan to mass-integrate Honkai Beast genes is actually quite feasible."

"Nonsense, why would I research this if it weren't feasible?"

Mobius rolled his eyes at Elysia. After all, his goal had always been the evolution of all humanity, not just the strengthening of individuals. Because if most of their kind disappeared, leaving only one or a few individuals, then the species would essentially be extinct.

"I didn't mean to question you, I just thought it was quite interesting."

Elysia smiled, and at the same time, she felt a little hopeful. After all, if in the future, humans could really create warriors with Ling Xi's strength in large numbers, no... even if they only had half the strength of Ling Xi, then humans would no longer fear the Honkai!

And that day probably won't be long.

Chapter 256: Ling Xi's inexhaustible energy!

Good morning, you two!

Shortly after Elysia sat down, Ling Xi also came out of the room and happily greeted his two wives.

"Eh..."

Seeing that Ling Xi was up so early today, and looked so energetic, Elysia seemed a little curious and asked with a smile, "Don't you usually get up at nine o'clock? I can't wake you up no matter what I do. Why are you up so early today?"

Mobius: "??? How do you know so much?"

"I don't know either..."

Ling Xi scratched his head and walked over to Elysia, laughing as he said, "Anyway, I just feel incredibly energetic right now, like I have inexhaustible energy."

Mobius "..."

Mobius simply ate his breakfast in silence, not wanting to say a word, because this guy had inexhaustible... well, not just energy, but even if you removed the word "strength," you still wouldn't have enough...

"Hehe, it's probably because you've shrunk."

Elysia smiled and winked, deliberately saying, "After all, children have the most energy, and you should meet that requirement right now."

"Hmph... I'll be back to normal soon!"

Speaking of this, Ling Xi was a little annoyed. After all, shrinking down did have many inconveniences, such as last night with the Doctor... cough cough, last night after taking a shower and getting dressed, Mobius almost laughed himself to death.

"Oh, what a pity..."

Thinking of this, Elysia sighed silently, wishing she could never turn back.

"Come here, Ling Xi, let your sister see if you've grown taller today."

As she spoke, Elysia lunged at Ling Xi, trying to protect him...

"Wait, Elysia, don't go... uh..."

Ling Xi was about to refuse when she encountered the Moonbreast Killing Incident. She suddenly felt like she couldn't breathe. Damn it, now that she'd shrunk, she was even more vulnerable to Elysia's deadly strangulation, and...

This is more terrifying than an enemy. If it were an enemy trying to kill him, he could easily fight back, activate the power of the Herrscher Core, and turn the enemy's ashes on Yang. But facing Elysia...

I know I'll suffocate if I keep going like this, but... I just don't want to resist. This is... the most beautiful yet deadly trap!

"Hmm... it seems like I've grown a little taller."

Fortunately, Elysia only hugged Lingxi for a short while. After all, she just wanted to hug Ling Xi and didn't really want to strangle Ling Xi. In that brief moment of contact, Elysia was able to assess Ling Xi's condition.

Compared to yesterday, she has grown about two centimeters taller. No, no, I have to start taking action tonight, otherwise Ling Xi will grow up too fast.

"Alright, let's have breakfast first."

Mobius spoke quietly, "After you finish eating Ling Xi, come with me to the basement. We'll use the tools in the underground lab to do a simple test, but..."

Mobius glanced at Elysia, then looked at Ling Xi and smiled, "I'll be working on a project to study Honkai Beast genes recently, so as before, I won't be going home for a while. So, Ling Xi, starting tomorrow, remember to come to the lab every day. I'll have Klein or Cangxuan do the tests for you. This will take at least a month."

"Yes, no problem, Doctor."

Ling Xi had long since adapted to this, after all, this was Mobius's normal routine. As a researcher, he naturally had to put research first!

"Um..."

Mobius nodded slightly, then smiled at Elysia and said, "Elysia, if you're free these days, you don't need to come to the research institute. After all, the news of Ling Xi's awakening has been made public, so I think it's inevitable that some people will come looking for Ling Xi during this period. You know what I want to say, right?"

"Don't worry, I promise I'll keep a close eye on Ling Xi!"

Elysia nodded decisively in agreement, almost bursting into laughter. "You said you'd stay by Ling Xi's side, and you won't leave even if I have to," she thought.

"Okay, it's up to you."

Mobius nodded, almost bursting into laughter. "You promised to stay by Ling Xi's side, so you won't be able to leave even if you want to. Last time I was careless and let you raid my base, this time..."

A gentleman takes his revenge even after ten years; I'll take my revenge tonight!

Afterwards, Ling Xi followed Mobius to the underground laboratory for a simple physical examination. The data was no different from yesterday. Except for the extremely high Honkai Energy content, all other indicators were normal. No, they couldn't even be described as normal. The data showed that she was absolutely healthy.

Of course, Mobius's requirement for Ling Xi to undergo daily check-ups still needs to be followed. After all, this is the first real gene surgery, and who knows what side effects might occur later?

After completing the tests, Mobius and Sakura headed directly to the research institute. After all, it was far from time for humanity to relax, even though they had defeated the Fourth Herrscher, but what lay ahead...

There are also nine constant Herrscher and the final Herrscher of Finality the end!

Therefore, even though Ling Xi had only been awake for less than a day, Mobius immediately threw himself into his work.

"Ling Xi has recovered, and there is video footage from the scene showing that he is in very good health."

"I can only say, as expected of Dr. Mobius, probably only she could do something like this..."

"Yes, during the last Honkai, if it weren't for Mobius and Ling Xi, the human world might already be a wasteland."

As news of Ling Xi's recovery became public, high-ranking UN officials held another small meeting, though it was hardly a formal meeting and more like a private conversation.

However, they were all somewhat surprised, because no one expected that Ling Xi, who had been Honkai Energy to such an extent by Ling Xi energy, would be sacrificed for humanity by Mobius, who forcefully reversed everything and pulled Ling Xi back from the brink of death.

"It's just a pity that Ling Xi, after recovering her health, has lost the ability to use the Herrscher Core, which is... a great loss for humanity."

Although Ling Xi recovered her health, the subsequent news still left people feeling somewhat disappointed. After all, the fact that a top-tier combatant like Ling Xi could no longer participate in battles meant that humanity would still face some difficulties when confronting the Herrscher in the future.

After all, it's really beyond human capabilities to defeat the increasingly powerful Herrscher on our own.

"Let's increase our investment in Honkai research. Ling Xi has already helped us twice. Next time... we can only rely on ourselves."

"It's already underway. In the areas I mentioned last time, various regions have drastically reduced or even halted investment, concentrating resources on research into the Honkai. And 20% of these resources have been allocated to Mobius personally."

"It's not enough. I think we should add at least 10%. Right now, apart from Mobius, everyone else is progressing too slowly. Although we all know that some of Mobius's ideas are dangerous, we have no choice but to rely on her now."

"No, there's a new employee here who's been here for about six months. Her research on Honkai doesn't seem to be much slower than Mobius's. However, she's currently working at Mobius's research institute, but her personality and behavior are more rational. And recently she's been researching a project called Stigmata Warrior, which seems very promising. I think... we can try to recruit her!"

Chapter 257: Even the Fairy Miss Wants to Act Cute!

"Haaaaaah..."

At nine o'clock in the evening, Elysia, lying on her bed, yawned boredly. Looking at Ling Xi, who was engrossed in playing games with Seele next to her, she wished she could kick him out. She had such a cute girl right next to her, but he went to play games with another guy, Lü Ren.

"Are you sleepy, Elysia?"

At this moment, Ling Xi also ended the game, lazily stretching. After all, she had been playing for an hour. Although she had a lot of energy, playing this game for too long was boring, and besides... what was she thinking, choosing a mage to jungle?

"Snort..."

In response, Elysia simply snorted softly. Although she didn't say anything, her unhappiness was practically written all over her face.

Ling Xi: "..." I told you to come along, but you didn't. You said Seele was too much of a jerk...

Well, that's true, considering we only won one out of five games teamed up with Seele, and judging from the situation... it seems like the opponents were bots intentionally feeding the enemy team!

"Hey-hey..."

Ling Xi scratched his head awkwardly, then quit the game and messaged Seele saying he needed to rest and would play again another day.

"Well then, dear Miss Elysia, is there anything I can do for you?"

Ling Xi knew that Elysia was definitely a little unhappy, and at this time, she naturally needed to coax her a little, after all, even a fairy lady has emotions.

"Well, it's nothing, I just... wanted to take a shower."

Elysia sat up abruptly, stretched, and chuckled, "But I don't want to take off my own socks, Ling Xi..."

As she spoke, Elysia gently lifted her right leg; the meaning behind this was self-evident.

"Don't worry, leave it to me."

Ling Xi certainly couldn't refuse; in fact, she couldn't be happier. She immediately rolled off the bed, skillfully reached her hand onto Elysia's thigh, gently pulled up the top of her stockings, and then gently pulled them off.

Although Ling Xi always felt that only Elysia with white stockings had a soul.

"Here you are."

Elysia raised her other leg, and Ling Xi naturally did the same, skillfully removing Elysia's stockings.

"Ugh, I'm so tired..."

Elysia lay down on the bed and hummed softly, "I don't even want to take my clothes off myself..."

Ling Xi: "..." Don't do this, something bad will happen...

However, Ling Xi didn't back down. After all, she had never backed down before, and now that Miss Fairy had become her wife, what was there for her to be afraid of?

Besides, it seems I've shed my skin for the fairy lady more times than I've shed it for the Doctor...

"Then sit up first, I can't help you like this."

Standing in front of Elysia, Ling Xi could clearly see Elysia's white sacred object, but since she was lying like this, he had no way to take off her clothes.

"Pick me up."

Elysia stretched out her arms and let Ling Xi hug her.

"Yes, yes, yes..."

Ling Xi didn't hesitate and stood in front of Elysia, intending to pick her up...

"Snort!"

As a result, Elysia suddenly hugged Ling Xi, then pulled Ling Xi onto the bed, and used He Jinyin's moves to lock Ling Xi up with both hands and feet.

Ling Xi: "..." This scene is so familiar, it seems to be from back in the temporary research institute...

"Elysia, what's wrong with you?"

Ling Xi was somewhat surprised to sense that Elysia seemed to be acting a little coquettish today, because... how to put it, although the two of them had always had a good relationship, Elysia was definitely the kind of girl with a strong sense of independence, and she rarely acted coquettishly like she did today.

Even if it happens occasionally, it's mostly in jest.

"It's nothing, I just wanted to hold you for a while..."

Elysia shook her head slightly and chuckled softly, "After all, I've almost forgotten when the last time we hugged like this was, so... let me hug you for a while, Ling Xi..."

Ling Xi: "..." Well, after all, she must have worried her for the past month or so...

Moreover, after waking up yesterday, I didn't go to be with her right away, but I couldn't help it. After all, although the Doctor is not necessarily more important than Elysia took the initiative to back down, and I don't know how to change that.

Therefore, unless one day I can actually play games with the Doctor and Elysia together, I am destined not to be able to care for both of them at the same time.

"Elysia ..."

Thinking of this, Ling Xi smiled at her, then gently lifted Elysia's chin, and finally tenderly kissed her lips...

There's nothing I can do; I'm not good at saying comforting words, and besides, it probably wouldn't do any good for Elysia anyway, so... the best thing to do is to make it up to her with actions, since...
