Doing... an Experiment with Elysia! / Seel Joins the Joint Operation...
"Oh..."
Seeing that Ling Xi had spoken, Ling stopped asking questions and silently ate her breakfast.
After breakfast, Ling Xi took Seele to the research institute as usual, and then talked with Dr. Mobius about the Herrscher. So far, Mobius has not found any difference between Seele's body and that of an ordinary human, and compared with the corpse of the Fifth Herrscher, there is no connection at all.
In any case, the first day of research yielded virtually no results!
However, Ling Xi was not in a hurry, because normally, the next Herrscher would most likely appear in three to six months. Although it might not be accurate, there was still plenty of time.
Afterwards, Mobius had Seele undergo another test, and planned to have Seele undergo a routine test every day or every two days in order to keep track of Seele condition.
"That's right!"
Before Ling Xi left, Mobius called her Ling Xi and said with a smile, "In a few days, all the schools in the capital will start, as for Seele..."
Mobius smiled slightly and said, "If it's not necessary, don't let her go to school anymore. If she doesn't want to, help her choose a school that's closer to us."
"Yes, I understand."
Ling Xi nodded silently in agreement. Indeed, given Seele's current condition, it was not suitable for her to continue going to school. After all, if Seele went to school, she would be out of his sight, and if anything happened, he would not be able to know immediately.
Therefore, it would be best to keep Seele at home, or more precisely, to keep her within your sight.
Of course, this matter needs to be discussed with Seele first. After all, although Seele is my wife, and a very obedient one, she is not a slave. Therefore, I cannot force Seele to do anything.
Chapter 335: Conducting... Experiments with Elysia!
In the afternoon, Ling Xi took Seele home. After all, there was nothing to do in the lab. And since they had gone out to play for two days in a row, they naturally didn't want to go out again today. Wouldn't it be more comfortable to lie around at home?
"Seele, are you still angry?"
At home, seeing that Seele was still a little unhappy, Ling Xi was both amused and exasperated. She remembered that Seele had stopped being jealous since the Honkai Changkong City, but... she didn't expect that because of what happened last night, this girl would care so much.
"Um, no..."
Seele pouted, saying she wasn't angry, but her face clearly showed she was furious.
"Okay, okay, I was just worried you were too tired last night."
Ling Xi could only hug Seele and smile gently, "I'll keep you company tonight, okay?"
"Really? Hmm... Hmph, I don't care..."
Seele's face lit up with joy, but she quickly regained her haughty demeanor.
"Hehe, anyway, let's talk about it tonight."
Ling Xi smiled at Seele and then said, "Seele, go play with Ling for a while. I have something to do at the lab."
"Huh? Going to the lab again?"
Seele immediately looked puzzled. Hadn't she just returned from the lab? Why was she going again?
"I'm talking about the underground laboratory in my house."
Ling Xi ruffled Seele's hair and smiled, "Don't worry, we won't be going to the research institute today. If we're going, it'll be tomorrow."
"Hehe, that's more like it."
Seele finally smiled with satisfaction, then went straight to find Ling. Although the two girls were five or six years apart in age, they seemed to get along well, and their favorite thing to do was to team up and lose points...
"Why..."
Ling Xi sighed silently, then headed to the underground laboratory to conduct some experiments related to Honkai Energy. Of course, her main goal was to gain a more proficient grasp of Honkai Energy, after all...
Although he really wanted to be a couch potato, he couldn't just stand by and do nothing when humanity was facing a life-or-death crisis. Unless Mobius had already decided on the Project Fireseed, he would have to step in when the time came.
Of course, if it's the Herrscher of Finality comes, then never mind what I said.
"Hey, Ling Xi, what are you doing here all by yourself?"
Shortly after Ling Xi arrived at the lab, Elysia also came over, standing beside Ling Xi and smiling at him. "Are you conducting Honkai Energy experiments?"
"Um."
Ling Xi didn't hide anything from Elysia, and said with a smile, "However, it can also be called training. After all, the Herrscher of the future will only get stronger and stronger, and we must be prepared."
"That's true..."
Elysia nodded silently, then leaned forward and asked curiously, "By the way, have you already told Mobius about the next Herrscher?"
"Hmm? That's true, but how did you know?"
Ling Xi looked at Elysia with some surprise. She had just discussed this matter with Mobius yesterday, and it was under the condition that no one was eavesdropping. How could Elysia have guessed it?
"Hehe, of course it's just a guess."
Elysia chuckled smugly, "After all, Mobius was initially very interested in the Fifth Herrscher's corpse and core, but after you left the lab yesterday, it seems Mobius has started to change his research direction, and..."
"She also contacted Mei, and it seems the two are going to do joint research again."
"Yeah?"
Hearing the name Mei, Ling Xi was not surprised at all, and even... a little happy. After all, no matter what, Mei was a genius in the Previous Era with Mobius and even surpassed Mobius in some aspects. Moreover, compared to Mobius, who specialized in gene research, Mei was obviously more skilled in consciousness research!
Therefore, Mei's addition is definitely a good thing. Of course, the premise is that Mobius will not leak the information about the Sixth Herrscher to Mei. After all, Ling Xi cannot trust Mei's attitude!
However, Ling Xi also believed that Mobius knew what was going on!
"By the way, is the Sixth Herrscher Herrscher related to consciousness?"
Elysia pressed on, laughing, "Because Mobius seems to be researching things like souls and consciousness lately, and he even went so far as to find schizophrenic patients to participate in his experiments."
Ling Xi: "..." Schizophrenia, um... it seems that from a certain perspective, the Herrscher consciousness is like schizophrenia, especially for the Immortal...
"No."
Ling Xi shook her head and smiled, "The Sixth Herrscher... Elysia, the information on the Sixth Herrscher is extremely important and cannot be known to anyone, so..."
"Don't worry, I understand."
Elysia immediately smiled and assured them, "Do I look like the kind of person who talks big? Don't worry, my mouth is tight, as solid as a rock!"
Ling Xi: "..." I'll just accept everything!
Ling Xi immediately cut off all signals from the laboratory, then leaned close to Elysia's ear and whispered in a voice only Elysia could hear, "The Sixth Herrscher, known as the Herrscher of Death, has the power of... creation and decay. In other words... she can control life and death!"
Elysia "..."
Hearing Ling Xi's answer, Elysia looked at Ling Xi with some suspicion and asked, "Then why is Mobius's research direction... um..."
Ling Xi placed her finger directly on Elysia's lips, shook her head slightly, and smiled, "Because... the Doctor and I discovered some things about the Herrscher, so this time... we don't just intend to eliminate the Herrscher, we also want to..."
"Subdue the Herrscher!"
"Eh..."
Hearing this answer, Elysia was clearly very surprised. Subduing Herrscher?
Could it be... that Ling Xi and Mobius are planning to strip the Herrscher of her consciousness and then implant a new consciousness into Herrscher?
Hmm, possession?
However, Elysia didn't press the matter further; some things are best left unsaid...
"Ling Xi, shall we continue tonight...?"
Thinking of this, Elysia decisively changed the subject. Herrscher were too heavy a topic. Wouldn't it be better to talk about something lighthearted?
"Tonight..."
Ling Xi rubbed her forehead and smiled, "Then I might have to apologize. I promised Seele before, and... you know, Seele is still angry about it."
"Puff..."
Elysia burst out laughing and said, "So you mean it's my fault? Well... that makes sense. Maybe if we had turned the volume down a bit when we were playing the game last night, Seele wouldn't have heard us."
Ling Xi: "..." What the hell? Why don't you just turn the game volume down? Why not just mute it?
"Ling Xi ..."
Elysia suddenly wrapped her arms around Ling Xi's neck and kissed him before Ling Xi could say anything...
Ling Xi: "..." Good grief, you want to do experiments too?
Chapter 336: Seele Joins the Alliance...
"Mmm..."
After the battle, Elysia put her coat back on and smiled, "Ling Xi, shall we continue tonight?"
"Didn't I tell you, Seele, she..."
Ling Xi shrugged helplessly and said with a forced smile, "What, you're still not full?"
"I'm full now, but I'll definitely be hungry again tonight, right?"
Elysia said in a serious tone, "Humans need to eat three meals a day. I've only eaten one meal today, how can I skip dinner?"
"Ling~hope~"
Elysia called out to Ling Xi in a slightly coquettish voice, then gently hugged Ling Xi and said with a wronged look, "Are you really willing to let me go hungry?"
Ling Xi "..."
Ling Xi looked at Elysia speechlessly. Although she knew the girl was faking it, she was just too beautiful. So even though she knew it was an act, she couldn't help but want to care about her!
So, Ling Xi could only smile helplessly and say, "Then what do you suggest we do?"
"Hehe, isn't that easy?"
Elysia chuckled and said, "Same as always, how about we get Seele involved too? After all, Seele alone can't eliminate your side effects, and that would be bad for both of us. So, a win-win situation is the best choice!"
"Um... but isn't this too early for Seele?"
Ling Xi seemed a little hesitant. He understood what Elysia meant, but... he had just won over Seele the day before yesterday. Was it too fast to let Seele participate in the joint operation today?
Even Sakura, whom I had dealt with for over a month, only joined forces with me at Elysia's urging, while Seele...
I only managed to win her over less than forty-eight hours ago!
"Oh dear, it's getting late. We're teaching Seele to grow up, Seele should thank us."
Elysia clenched her fist slightly and snorted righteously, "Anyway, I'm coming tonight no matter what. If you don't agree, I'll ambush you!"
Ling Xi "..."
"I have no objection, but Seele ..."
Ling Xi naturally couldn't refuse Elysia's suggestion, but would Seele agree? After all, Seele wasn't as shameless as Elysia!
Don't worry!
Elysia patted her chest and said confidently, "Ling Xi, you just lie down and wait to be carried. As for Seele... leave her to me!"
"Heh, alright then, I'll leave everything to you, Elysia."
Seeing Elysia's confident expression, Ling Xi could only nod in agreement. After all, she didn't want to refuse, but she was worried that Seele would have objections. But now... she didn't have to do anything, she could just leave it to her. What reason did she have to refuse?
OK!
Elysia made an OK sign, then put on her coat and left the lab to find Seele.
"Elysia ..."
Ling Xi, meanwhile, stroked her chin and pondered. It seemed that, starting with Sakura, then the Doctor, and now with Seele, it was always Elysia took the initiative to handle every joint operation. Hmm...
As expected of Elysia's wife, well done!
But Elysia actually likes team battles? This girl is truly consistent inside and out; her appearance and personality seem very lively, but her personality...
She was just as lively, and even more knowledgeable than I was. After all, whether it was the first time I drank milk tea in the car or the first time I fought in the car, it was Elysia who took the lead!
Therefore, regarding Elysia's personality, all I can say is... please increase the intensity!
"Damn it, that girl interrupted me, I completely forgot about training..."
Only then did Ling Xi realize that she had come to the lab for training, but...
Well, what I did with Elysia just now could be considered some kind of training, since...
He was enhancing Elysia's Honkai Energy Adaptability, and Elysia was his wife, so training Elysia was essentially training himself. Therefore...
I was just training!
