Do Stigmata and Milk Tea Clash? / How Sakura's Character Setting Got Ruined...
"Doctor, you're finally up..."
When the two changed their clothes and came to the living room, Klein was sitting there waiting for Mobius. He said with some helplessness, "Doctor, although I can understand what's going on between you and Ling Xi, have you forgotten that there's an important second phase experiment today? You're not planning to skip it, are you?"
"Cough cough."
Mobius coughed slightly and said seriously, "What's the rush? It's only ten o'clock. Can't the experiment be done in the afternoon?"
Klein "..."
"Sigh, it seems the Doctor has indeed been conquered by the big bone..."
Klein muttered to himself...
"What big bone?"
Although Klein's voice was very soft, Mobius clearly heard it.
"No, it's nothing..."
Klein quickly shook her head; she would never tell the Doctor that she had accidentally seen it in a notebook a few days ago.
"Alright, let's go."
However, at this moment, Mobius couldn't care less about anything else. All she wanted to do was rush back to the lab to see how much her Honkai Energy Adaptability had increased. It should be... around 25 HW.
Fifteen minutes later, Mobius had obtained his Honkai Energy Adaptability data in the laboratory...
[Honkai Energy Adaptability Test Results: 124±5 HW!]
"Hmm... it doesn't seem surprising after all..."
Seeing his test results, Mobius was relatively satisfied. He didn't forget that he had used reverse psychology to provoke Ling Xi the night before, although he regretted it immensely afterward. But now, seeing the results, all he could say was...
You reap what you sow. If I keep going like this, and give myself another month, I'm sure I'll be able to surpass Sakura and Elysia.
"Wow, Doctor, your Honkai Energy Adaptability is actually that high?"
Ling Xi was quite surprised to see that her Doctor's data exceeded 120HW, after all... this was the result of a separate test. Without the amplification of the Hypervariable Factor and the Stigmata Gene, Mobius's own Honkai Energy Adaptability alone had already reached 120HW!
If this were placed at the Schicksal Headquarters, she would definitely be cultivated as a potential Valkyrie!
"Come on, you call this high?"
Mobius laughed irritably, "Not to mention compared to a freak like you, even compared to Elysia and Sakura, I'm only about one-fifth of their abilities."
"One-fifth, 600HW?"
Ling Xi asked with some doubt, "No way, Doctor, Elysia and Sakura both came to see me last week. They both said their Honkai Energy Adaptability is around 400HW? How could it be as exaggerated as you say, Doctor?"
"Hehe..."
Mobius couldn't help but chuckle and said, "Ling Xi, you had a very comfortable week, didn't you?"
Ling Xi: "..." Didn't I ask this question yesterday?
"Um... it's alright."
Ling Xi was still hesitant to answer Mobius's question directly, after all, it was a joint operation...
"Hey... Ling Xi."
Mobius smiled at Ling Xi, then turned and tackled Ling Xi onto a chair, laughing, "Actually, the truth is quite simple. Come on, cooperate with me in a small experiment. I believe you'll understand what I mean after you've experienced it..."
"Experiment?"
Ling Xi was about to ask what kind of experiment it was, since her biggest contribution to joining the Doctor's lab was being experimented on...
"Um?"
Then, Ling Xi sensed something was wrong and glanced at her Doctor. This was... an experiment?
Chapter 296: Will Stigmata and Milk Tea Conflict?
"Puff..."
Five minutes later, Mobius rinsed his mouth, spat out the water, and then tested his Honkai Energy Adaptability again...
[Honkai Energy Adaptability Test Results: 126±5HW!]
"This is so effective, it works way too fast..."
Seeing this, Mobius was also somewhat impressed; the data updates really are fast.
"Forehead..."
Upon seeing the new data obtained by Mobius, Ling Xi was clearly somewhat bewildered and asked, "Is this... a detection error?"
No, that's not it.
Mobius shook his head slightly and smiled, "Five minutes ago, my Honkai Energy Adaptability was only 124 HW, but now it's increased by two points, and in the meantime..."
Mobius chuckled softly, "We conducted a small experiment, so... Ling Xi, didn't you notice anything?"
"Puff..."
Upon hearing Mobius's words, Ling Xi almost spat out blood, then instantly understood and exclaimed, "What the hell? Impossible! What kind of ridiculous setting is this?"
"Heh, to be honest, I didn't believe it at first either, but after my research last Friday and my own personal experimentation, I confirmed this fact, so..."
Mobius glanced at Ling Xi silently, then asked with a wicked grin, "Now, you should understand why Elysia and Sakura have been so eager to spend time with you this past week, right? And you should also understand why their Honkai Energy Adaptability could increase by 200 HW in just one week, right?"
Ling Xi: "..." I thought they truly loved me, but...
Unexpectedly, they came with this purpose in mind!
No wonder these two could cause trouble almost anytime they were at home this week. So this is the truth.
Although, no matter how you look at it, he's not at a loss, after all... Elysia and Sakura are both his, they're both his wives, and if his wives become stronger, that's the same as him becoming stronger, and...
During this process of becoming stronger, both I and they were very happy, so...
This is a huge profit!
"Hey, I know you might find this hard to believe, but this is the truth."
Mobius wiped his mouth and chuckled, "So, what do you want to say now?"
Actually, Mobius originally didn't intend to tell Ling Xi the truth, at least not in the short term, but...
After Mei's departure yesterday, and considering Seele's safety and the potential of the future Stigmata Gene, Mobius told Ling Xi the truth so that he could have a proper discussion with Ling Xi!
"All I can say is... the score of Liliyuan."
Ling Xi shrugged, after all, anyone would find this absurd.
"Then... Doctor, you put me with Seele in the hope that Seele Honkai Energy Adaptability?"
Thinking about this, Ling Xi finally understood why Mobius kept urging her to win over Seele. So that was the reason.
"It's not just that."
Mobius smiled and shook his head, saying, "After all, I only found out about this a week ago, so my urging you to settle things with Seele before that was just my personal opinion. And the reason I urged you yesterday was for the same reason."
"There's no need to rush."
Ling Xi shrugged and laughed, "After all, the Gemini Stigmata can also give Seele a strong Honkai Energy Adaptability. Seele doesn't need this method to gain self-protection ability."
"No the same."
Mobius shook his head again, saying, "First of all, we don't currently know how long the effect of having you enhance our Honkai Energy Adaptability will last. What if... let's say the Honkai Energy Adaptability enhancement stops at 800 HW, then it will be impossible to enhance it further using this method in the future, but..."
Mobius casually swiped open the holographic image, clicked on the data of the Stigmata Gene, and smiled, "Once we reach the limit using your method, can we further enhance Honkai Energy Adaptability through the Hypervariable Factor or the Stigmata Gene? My personal speculation is... yes!"
"Conversely, if Seele's Honkai Energy Adaptability was enhanced first using the Stigmata Gene, then... if she continues to enhance her Honkai Energy Adaptability using your method, will it also be locked at 800HW? This... we don't know!"
"This..."
Hearing Mobius's explanation, Ling Xi understood what Mobius meant, and at the same time, she was also curious about the question.
Although in theory the order shouldn't have much of an impact, but...
Science doesn't allow for luck. What if Mobius's prediction is correct, and I injected Seele with the Honkai Energy gene first? Then...
Wouldn't this be letting Seele waste the opportunity to increase her own strength?
"So, Ling Xi, now you understand why I told you to hurry up and win over Seele, right?"
Seeing that Ling Xi seemed to understand his meaning, Mobius continued, "Also, don't forget what you said. Excluding the Herrscher of Finality, there are a total of thirteen Herrscher. What if one day Herrscher really erupts near Seele, and Seele doesn't have enough Honkai Energy Adaptability, then..."
"You will lose her completely."
"I..."
Ling Xi seemed to want to refute, but was powerless to do so. Indeed, if Seele were not the Sixth Herrscher, then when faced with a powerful Honkai Energy eruption, given her 30HW Honkai Energy Adaptability, she would at most leave with a complete corpse, or be completely corrupted by the Honkai Energy and turned into Dishi...
How could I possibly accept either of these outcomes?
Moreover, what Mobius was worried about was not entirely impossible. After all, he only knew the locations of a few Herrscher from the Previous Era Herrscher. Furthermore, he was like a butterfly flapping its wings, which might cause the Herrscher he knew in the future to change.
In short, from any perspective, getting Seele under control and increasing her Seele Honkai Energy Adaptability is currently the best option.
Although, using this reason to get Seele still feels a little... wrong.
"Alright, alright, you don't need to be in such a hurry."
Mobius smiled slightly and said, "I plan to have Elysia and Sakura cooperate with us in a series of experiments to prove my suspicions."
"What kind of experiment is it this time?"
Ling Xi put aside her thoughts and looked at Mobius with a hint of curiosity.
"Elysia, and Sakura, choose one of them and inject her with the Stigmata Gene, then..."
Mobius said seriously, "We are continuously monitoring the degree of Honkai Energy Adaptability to determine whether there is a conflict between the Stigmata Gene and you. Of course, this experiment can only be used as a reference. After all, Elysia and Sakura have different constitutions, and many factors are uncertain, so the experimental results can only be used as a reference."
After listening to Mobius's words, Ling Xi thought about it for a moment, and finally...
"Can I... talk to them about this?"
Ling Xi still planned to go back and discuss it with them, after all... this should be a very important matter for them, and she shouldn't make a decision for them rashly.
"Yes, of course..."
Mobius had absolutely no objection to this. In any case, no matter who Ling Xi decided to inject, the two of them would definitely not go against Ling Xi's wishes.
Chapter 297: How Sakura's character was ruined...
"Hi, Ling Xi, welcome home."
When Elysia got home, she was playing board games with Seele and Sakura Rin, but when she saw Ling Xi, she immediately dropped her cards and pounced on her.
"Ling Xi, welcome back..."
Seele was equally enthusiastic, not to be Ling Xi.
Cherry"..."
Sakura also had certain impulses, but...
I felt really embarrassed in front of my sister.
Therefore, they could only watch helplessly as Elysia and Seele split Ling Xi equally.
"Hey, did Mobius not come back today?"
Seeing that Ling Xi had returned alone, Elysia seemed quite happy. After all, she hadn't increased her Honkai Energy Adaptability last night, nor had she done anything she liked, so she felt like she had lost a fortune.
"Has the Doctor not returned?"
Upon hearing this, Sakura seemed somewhat tempted, for the same reason as Elysia.
"Who said I didn't come back?"
As soon as the two finished speaking, Mobius silently appeared from the stairwell and snorted, "I was just getting something from the basement. Are you guys really hoping I won't come back?"
"Hehe, how could that be? It's just that I thought the great Dr. Mobius was busy with his experiments."
Elysia smiled slightly and said, "So, Doctor, is it really a good idea to waste time on experiments and go home?"
"Snort..."
Mobius gave a soft hum. How could he not know what this girl was thinking?
So Mobius immediately laughed and said, "I've been quite free lately, so... I plan to go home every day from now on."
"Wow, Mobius, that's no fun at all."
