My Wife Might Make a Killing, but I'm Definitely Not Losing! / Sakura Is the Most "Honest" One!
Elysia was immediately annoyed. If Sakura came back every day, she and Sakura wouldn't even get to drink soup. When she and Sakura had conflicts, they took turns, and later they even chose to cooperate for common interests.
But is Mobius planning to flip the table with this move?
"Doctor, I think... what you're doing isn't right."
Sakura also seemed somewhat reluctant. Although Dr. Mobius was her employer, work was work and husband was husband, and they were not the same thing.
"Um... Doctor."
Ling Xi looked at Mobius with some embarrassment. Although... how to put it, the Doctor's behavior was indeed a little excessive. After all, everyone was having a good time, and suddenly someone wanted to overturn the table. This was not good for anyone.
Moreover, Ling Xi didn't want these people to actually start arguing, because it would be difficult for her to side with anyone in the end.
"I was just saying..."
Mobius pursed her lips. After all, she knew she couldn't possibly enhance Honkai Energy every night. Last night, she almost thought she was going to die, and she didn't want to go through that again. So...
Just increase the Honkai Energy Adaptability every one or two days. That way, I can conservatively estimate an increase of over a hundred per month. If that doesn't work...
By the way, since drinking milk tea can also enhance Honkai Energy Adaptability, then...
If Ling Xi makes artificial milk tea for me and I drink it directly, wouldn't that enhance my Honkai Energy without being hit by Emperor-class Honkai Beast?
Mobius "..."
Of course, this idea only flashed through Mobius's mind and he did not intend to carry it out, because if he did, he would become a wicked capitalist, and... a true exploiter of Ling Xi!
"Alright, since that's the case, then..."
Mobius smiled slightly and said, "Sakura, Elysia, and Ling Xi, come to my room. Let's have a good talk!"
Two minutes later, in Mobius's room...
"So, Ling Xi, you already knew about this?"
After Mobius's brief explanation, Elysia and Sakura looked at Ling Xi somewhat awkwardly.
"Yeah, that's right..."
Ling Xi nodded silently and smiled helplessly, "I knew it. How could someone as honest and well-behaved as Ying suddenly become like a firearm? But... now everything makes sense."
"Uh... I'm sorry, Ling Xi, I..."
At this moment, Sakura really, really wanted to disappear into a crack in the ground, both because of the foolish things she had done these past two days and because she felt she had deceived Ling Xi, although...
Even if it didn't enhance Honkai Energy Adaptability, I definitely wouldn't refuse Ling Xi, but...
In this situation, I always feel like I'm approaching Ling Xi for some other purpose.
No need to apologize.
Ling Xi gently hugged Ying and smiled, "After all, I didn't suffer any losses, and... I've had a very happy few days. As for the future..."
Ling Xi chuckled softly, "I hope you keep doing this, Sakura."
"Hmm..."
Upon hearing this, Sakura's face turned even redder. If she continued like this... well, she felt like her persona had completely collapsed. She was a dashing, decisive, and powerful S-class Poisoned Pupae member, but under Ling Xi's influence, she gradually turned into a modern weapon who only knew how to cause trouble!
If... if Rin finds out about this, that girl definitely won't acknowledge me as her older sister anymore, right?
To be honest, if my past self saw my present self, I'd probably... want to find a place to kill myself.
However, I really can't blame myself. It's just that Ling Xi is too... cough cough, it's just that the feeling of becoming stronger is too sweet. I only have to pay a tiny price, no... it can't even be called a price, and then I can steadily increase my Honkai Energy Adaptability. Such a good thing...
I simply couldn't refuse.
Besides, Ling Xi is my... mmm, husband!
Moreover, her husband suffers from Honkai Beast Gene Syndrome. As his wife, it is her duty to help him solve his problems!
"Sakura, can you hear me? Sakura!"
This is when Mobius raised his voice to wake Sakura.
"Eh? I understand, Dr. Mobius!"
Sakura then realized what was happening and quickly nodded to show that she understood.
"Then what did I just say?"
Mobius stared silently at Sakura. This girl... she was clearly daydreaming!
"Eh..."
Sakura was stunned. She hadn't heard a thing.
"Fine, I'll say it again."
Mobius sighed and smiled helplessly, "I have two perfect and side-effect-free Stigmata Gene here, one for Sakura and one for Elysia. Conservatively speaking, after you inject the Stigmata Gene, your Honkai Energy Adaptability will directly exceed 1000 HW, but..."
"I can't guarantee that after you've been injected with the Stigmata Gene, Ling Xi's method will still enhance your Honkai Energy Adaptability, so..."
Finally, Mobius smiled slightly and said, "I intend to study this problem, and I need someone to assist me in my research."
"Stigmata Gene?"
Upon hearing these four words, Sakura immediately became serious. After all, she was Dr. Mobius's personal bodyguard, so while she didn't understand everything Mobius researched, she knew a great deal about it, including the Stigmata Gene...
It is a product that is almost comparable to the Hypervariable Factor!
However, Dr. Mobius's main research is on the Hypervariable Factor, while the Stigmata Gene is mainly under Mebius's responsibility, and both are currently in the early stages of research and development.
So, she was a little stunned when Dr. Mobius suddenly pulled out the perfect Stigmata Gene!
Chapter 298: My wife might make a killing, but I'm definitely not losing out!
"Mobius, where did you get this perfect Stigmata Gene from?"
Not only was Sakura bewildered, but Elysia was even more confused. Although she knew that Mobius was a genius, a super genius, but...
With humanity's current capabilities, creating a perfect Stigmata Gene is probably unrealistic. Besides, Mobius's research focus isn't on Stigmata, but on the Hypervariable Factor.
"If I said I did it, you probably wouldn't believe me."
In response, Mobius laughed and said, "So let me tell you the truth, this was given to me by Ling Xi. As for where Ling Xi came from, don't ask that question, because I don't know either. But... Ling Xi wouldn't hurt you, would she?"
"Ugh..."
"That's true..."
Sakura and Elysia both agreed with Mobius's words. Although they still didn't know how the Stigmata Gene came about, they were both very certain that Ling Xi would not harm herself.
"Of course, this plan I'm talking about is just a suggestion. After all, we know too little about Ling Xi and the Stigmata Gene right now. If you're willing, you can cooperate with me in the experiment; otherwise..."
Mobius smiled slightly and said, "If you have any concerns, you can refuse. After all, this experiment is only for reference. Whether you do it or not will not affect my future plans."
"Then let me do it."
As soon as Mobius finished speaking, Elysia raised her hand and laughed, "After all, I've wanted to undergo the Hypervariable Surgery for a long time, but unfortunately you haven't mastered the technology yet, Mobius. As for now... the Stigmata Gene can also do the job. Anyway, it's all about becoming stronger, so what's the difference?"
"Hmm..."
Sakura had actually wanted to speak, but Elysia beat her to it, so she remained silent.
"Yes, that's fine."
Mobius, of course, wouldn't refuse, and laughed, "If my guess is correct, then after you use the Stigmata Gene, your Honkai Energy Adaptability will conservatively exceed 1000 HW. If we're being a bit bolder... exceeding 1500 HW isn't impossible either. Also..."
Mobius became slightly more serious and said, "The Stigmata Gene brings more than just power; it also brings... inheritance."
"Inheritance? What... is that?"
Elysia looked even more confused, wondering why she didn't understand this thing called Stigmata at all.
"It's complicated and troublesome to explain. You'll understand once you experience it after the implantation is done tomorrow."
Mobius didn't know how to explain it, after all, the essence of Stigmata is a genetic sequence, and genetic sequences naturally have the characteristic of heredity, but... Mobius knew very well that Stigmata were definitely not as simple as they were currently showing.
To be honest, Mobius also felt that humanity's future might truly depend on the Stigmata for its continuation. After all, the Stigmata Gene given by Ling Xi had already fully proven this point. Perhaps it was precisely because Mebius knew of the existence of Gemini Stigmata that he was so determined to follow this path, but...
The Stigmata that humans can create right now are far too weak. So until the Stigmata Project grows strong enough to carry the banner of humanity, we must use other forces to protect humanity, such as... the Super Transformation Project!
"Alright, now that we've finished discussing work, then..."
Mobius smiled slightly and said, "Now let's get down to business. First of all, we all know that Ling Xi can increase our Honkai Energy Adaptability, so if we want to increase Honkai Energy Adaptability, then... we'd better reschedule. What do you think?"
"I have no objection."
Elysia nodded decisively, but also said with a smile, "However, we need to discuss the time allocation, after all... Dr. Mobius certainly wouldn't deliberately favor himself, right?"
"Ugh... you guys, let's discuss it."
Sakura hesitated for a moment, then decided to remain silent. Anyway... as long as she didn't end up not even getting a sip of soup, it was fine.
There was no other way; I was too embarrassed to speak up, especially since it was about arguing with Dr. Mobius about something like this.
Ling Xi: "..." Seriously, haven't you noticed that no one has asked for my opinion?
"Um, could I just say a few words...?"
As if possessed, Ling Xi uttered those words.
Shut up!
Elysia and Mobius both gave Ling Xi a disdainful look and snorted, "Anyway, you wouldn't refuse anyone, would you?"
Ling Xi "..."
Okay, Ling Xi stepped aside, even wanting to light a cigarette...
"Ling Xi ..."
Finally, Sakura came to Ling Xi's side and said with a smile, "You can tell me anything."
"Sakura, don't run away!"
Elysia grabbed Sakura's arm and pulled her over, saying, "We need to discuss this together."
"Um."
Mobius also silently watched Sakura, and smiled thoughtfully, "After all, even the honest and steady Sakura has run away several times. This time, she can't run away again."
Cherry"..."
"Then I'll go find Seele. You two can continue your conversation."
Finally, Ling Xi decided to leave decisively. Since there was no point in staying here anyway, she might as well go find Seele and get some comfort.
The three of them didn't care about Ling Xi's escape. After all, although this matter was related to Ling Xi in many ways, it also seemed to have nothing to do with Ling Xi. In fact, for Ling Xi, no matter who the winner was, Ling Xi would make a huge profit.
Whether it's Mobius, Elysia, or Sakura, aren't they all top-tier beauties? So what...?
Let them discuss it however they want, and don't care who benefited, anyway...
In the end, I'll definitely make a killing.
It's a pity that a three-way joint operation can't be carried out yet. Otherwise, would this matter even need discussion? Why not just take it all?
About two minutes later, the group had reached a decision: Elysia and Sakura would each have two days a week, and Mobius have three days. Mobius's schedule would be flexible, since Mobius didn't know which days he would be busiest.
Mobius looked at the two of them and said with a smile, "Well then, it's decided. If anyone has any objections, say them now."
"No problem, I completely agree."
Elysia smiled and nodded in agreement, while also winking at Sakura.
"I'm fine with it too."
Sakura seemed quite happy and nodded in agreement with a smile. At the same time... she naturally understood what Elysia meant.
Mobius: "..." Why do these two people act like they've gained an advantage even though they've clearly suffered a loss?
Forget about all that. Anyway, I have three days, while Elysia and Sakura each have two days. I still have a slight advantage. In the long run, my Honkai Energy Adaptability will definitely surpass that of the two of them!
Chapter 299: Sakura is the most "honest" one!
The next day, Ling Xi drove the Doctor and the two pink-haired girls to the research institute early in the morning because there was an important experiment to be conducted that day: implanting Stigmata into Elysia.
First, of course, is to reconfirm Elysia's Honkai Energy Adaptability. Mobius is already very experienced at this task and could predict that since yesterday's test result for Elysia was 600 HW, her Elysia Honkai Energy Adaptability today should also be...
"Elysia, Honkai Energy Adaptability... 603HW?"
Upon seeing this data, Mobius's expression immediately turned somewhat unpleasant. He glared at Ling Xi with a hint of annoyance. Clearly, these two must have done it again without his knowledge, otherwise, how could the Honkai Energy Adaptability have suddenly increased?
