I Woke Up and Now I'm a Mom? / Seel's Honkai Energy Is Spiking!

Seele nodded silently, a touch of warmth spreading through her heart!

"Seele, wait a moment, I'll go get your food!"

Ling Xi smiled at Seele, then got up and went to the window to get her food!

The moment everyone looked at Seele, Ling Xi remembered that back in Changkong City, Mobius had also received the same treatment, being ostracized, wary, and disliked by those around him. Mobius knew this back then, which is why he always had Klein bring him food when he ate, or he would eat instant noodles by himself!

I was powerless to change the situation back then, but now... I won't let Seele suffer any injustice!

Chapter 346: I woke up one morning to find myself a mother?

After dinner, Ling Xi accompanied Seele for a walk outside the research institute, but she did not plan to take Seele home. At least for the time being, it would be better for Seele to stay in the research institute, which would also be convenient for Mobius's research.

"Seele, there's something I want to tell you."

Gently holding Seele's hand, Ling Xi intended to tell Seele about the matter. After all, if even Seele herself wasn't aware of the problem, then the girl was very likely to do something dangerous, so...

What needs to be said still needs to be said.

"Hmm? What's wrong?"

Seele looked at Ling Xi with curiosity, her face full of obedience.

From this angle, Seele is really cute, and...

She doesn't look mature at all, still full of childishness, but this little girl...

Ling Xi thought, "..." Thank goodness Seele is Estonian, otherwise I might have had to go with Mr. Bayi to pick up the soap.

But then again, Mr. Bayi should be out of prison by now, after all, it's been five years...

"Cough cough, Seele, you..."

Ling Xi smiled slightly at Seele and said, "Didn't we discuss our future life together? Do you remember what you said back then?"

"Um?"

Seele hesitated for a moment, then smiled and said, "What else can I say? It's just... to be together forever, and then to give Ling Xi... umm, to have a baby or something, cough cough, okay, let's not talk about this anymore, you've asked three times already."

"Hehe, no, I want to say something."

Ling Xi smiled and then said seriously, "Because... we've already accomplished half of our goals: staying together forever and having a baby!"

"Hmm? Is it... being together forever?"

Seele understood what Ling Xi meant, but... she was no longer an ordinary human, but a Herrscher was destroying human civilization!

"No, I meant... my other half!"

Ling Xi calmly said, "Seele... have you been feeling unwell lately, with a poor appetite, a irritable mood, and... feeling nauseous from time to time, but unable to vomit anything?"

"Huh? How did you know?"

Seele was a little surprised, after all, she hadn't told anyone about this, and she had only decided to ask Mobius for a medical check-up this afternoon, although... she was delayed by a small matter.

"Ah, because that's why..."

Ling Xi didn't say it directly. Instead, she took out her phone and searched it on Baidu. Then she handed the phone to Seele. "Seele, look, your current situation, although it's not exactly the same as what's described above, is at least exactly the same, so..."

"Puff..."

Upon receiving this news, Seele nearly coughed up blood. What the hell?! She...

Is the source of this information reliable?

Although Seele felt that she was exactly the same as the person described above, well... how should I put it, suddenly learning this news still felt a bit unreal to her.

"Of course it's reliable!"

Ling Xi nodded helplessly and smiled, "Remember this morning Klein your blood drawn for testing? Klein did a full analysis of the blood sample and that's when he discovered this, although the probability was only 99%, not completely certain!"

"And in the afternoon, Seele... no, when the Sixth Herrscher was preparing to trigger the Great Honkai, she was suddenly interrupted by vomiting. At that moment, I was basically certain that this was true, and finally..."

Ling Xi smiled slightly and said, "I brought you back to the research institute, and then the Doctor conducted a comprehensive examination on you, officially confirming this matter, and... the date was also pinpointed to about six weeks ago, approximately..."

Ling Xi thought about it for a moment, and finally said, "It's roughly the few days when we're actually together."

Seele: "..." This...

I woke up one morning to find myself suddenly a mother. This is truly... outrageous!

"Um, Seele, if you don't want to, we can..."

Seeing Seele's somewhat bewildered expression, Ling Xi took the opportunity to mention the Doctor's previous suggestion: if Seele didn't want to continue, then it could be... eliminated at any time!

No, that's not what I meant.

Seele quickly shook her head, then gently touched her belly and said with a wry smile, "I just feel... it's too sudden, and it's been more than a month, and I didn't even notice. And you, you didn't even notice either, you're so irresponsible!"

"Um... okay, okay, it's my fault."

Seeing Seele's feigned anger, Ling Xi could only take the blame. But... she couldn't entirely blame herself. After all, no matter how hard the Doctor and the others tried, they couldn't make a single move, while Seele could just kill them in one shot. Who wouldn't be confused in this situation?

Of course, this is something I can only think about in my heart; I'd rather not say it out loud.

"Snort..."

Seele deliberately snorted, then turned her back to Ling Xi, but her face was full of smiles...

The next day, at the same new headquarters building of the Flame-Chasing Moths, a group of senior executives were having their usual meeting. However, today they weren't arguing anymore; instead, they were discussing the Sixth Herrscher.

"Mobius refused to hand over the Sixth Herrscher, saying she would study it herself."

The first to speak was the familiar but not-so-famous Speaker, who asked, "What are your thoughts?"

"That's clearly an excuse!"

No sooner had the speaker finished speaking than a member of parliament said, "Although Mobius claims to have controlled the Sixth Herrscher, look..."

As he spoke, he directly displayed a video and several photos, showing Ling Xi taking Seele to a restaurant and photos of Ling Xi taking Seele for a walk outside the research institute.

"These are the photos I got last night. From them, it seems that the Sixth Herrscher is not only not under strict surveillance, but also has no restrictions on his personal freedom. Is this what Mobius meant by 'under control'?"

As he spoke, he appeared quite angry. "Although we all know that the Sixth Herrscher has a special status, we cannot underestimate the danger of Herrscher just because of that. The destruction caused by the Herrscher a few days ago is still fresh in our minds. Mobius's current behavior is irresponsible towards all of humanity!"

"That makes sense!"

As soon as he finished speaking, another councilor echoed his sentiments, "We are all well aware of the threat posed by the Herrscher, so we cannot let our guard down just because she is the Sixth Herrscher. I suggest we immediately put pressure on Mobius to hand over the Sixth Herrscher to us, or... eliminate her!"

"But Mobius's power is not weak now, not to mention that he also has two top-tier Fused Warrior, Elysia and Sakura!"

Some people seem to be worried about this, after all, those two were part of the main force in the last battle against the Herrscher of Ice.

"No matter how strong they are, they are still human beings, and they will still die if they are killed!"

Someone retorted directly, "As for Ling Xi, we can basically ignore him since the Herrscher of Wind incident, so... no matter what, I should try to put pressure on Mobius. If she remains obstinate, then we can use some tough measures!"

Ultimately, everyone voted and unanimously agreed to put pressure on Mobius to hand over the Sixth Herrscher!

Seeing that everyone was in agreement, the speaker made a decision. "In that case... let's give it a try!"

Chapter 347: Seele Honkai Energy!

"Honkai Energy Adaptability 1820HW, damn it, how can it increase so fast?"

In the lab, Mobius conducted another Honkai Energy Adaptability test on Seele, but the result left Mobius somewhat conflicted, because...

That's incredibly fast.

"This..."

Seeing this, Ling Xi was also taken aback. Yesterday, she had made sure Seele rested properly and hadn't done anything that might enhance Seele Honkai Energy Adaptability. However...

Even so, Seele's Honkai Energy Adaptability still increased by a full 20 HW within 24 hours. If this continues, Seele Honkai Energy break through 2000 HW again in less than ten days. And if that happens, the consciousness of the Sixth Herrscher will probably awaken again.

"Ling Xi, it seems we don't have much time left..."

Mobius silently looked at Ling Xi and said, "Based on my investigation yesterday, the most likely reason why Seele became Simulated Herrscher is because her Honkai Energy exceeded 1000 HW, which is the minimum standard for the appearance of Simulated Herrscher, and..."

Mobius sighed and continued, "The Honkai event that happened yesterday and the birth of the Sixth Herrscher... perhaps we got the order wrong. I initially thought Honkai Seele to be in danger and thus become a Herrscher, but..."

Mobius made a light swipe with his right hand, then unfolded a holographic image, saying, "Based on the timeline and the intensity of Honkai Energy, the truth should be that Seele's Honkai Energy Adaptability first reached 1000HW, but Seele's limited control over her Honkai Energy led to Honkai Energy, which in turn triggered the Honkai outbreak, and then..."

"The Sixth Herrscher relied on the Honkai Energy flowing out of the Honkai wormhole to continuously replenish her own energy, and finally successfully condensed the Honkai core, becoming the true Sixth Herrscher!"

"So, we shouldn't have given Seele Honkai Energy Adaptability in the first place?"

Hearing this answer, Ling Xi was speechless. So, the reason why the Sixth Herrscher appeared ahead of schedule was because of him?

"That's not entirely true."

Mobius shook his head and said, "The Honkai Energy in Seele's body mainly comes from the Herrscher Core or the Imaginary Space, while the Honkai Energy from you and the Stigmata is relatively small. So... even if we don't interfere with Seele, Seele transformation shouldn't last more than a week!"

"Why..."

Ling Xi could only rub her forehead with a slightly sad expression; this problem was far too difficult to solve.

"Doctor, headquarters demands that we hand over the Sixth Herrscher."

At that moment, Klein suddenly walked in and said somewhat urgently, "And this time we are being ordered to carry out orders. If we refuse, we will be subject to the most severe punishment."

"Didn't I just reject them yesterday? Why are they here again?"

Mobius looked somewhat displeased. Couldn't those guys just shut up for once? Besides... even a fool would know that he couldn't possibly agree to such a request.

"Because headquarters felt that we had not exercised strict control over the Sixth Herrscher."

As he spoke, Klein showed several photos and said, "These photos were leaked from our research institute. Yesterday, headquarters found out that Ling Xi was taking Seele around, so headquarters felt that this was unsafe."

Ling Xi "..."

"I'm sorry, I..."

Hearing this, Seele was also a little worried, "I shouldn't have let Ling Xi take me out last night..."

"It's okay, I'm the one who took you out, it's not like you did it on your own initiative!"

Ling Xi grabbed Seele's hand and said to Klein, "Tell them this is off-limits. If they have any objections, they can come and talk to me privately. I'm always ready!"

At this moment, Ling Xi already harbored murderous intent. To be precise, she had this thought back when Mobius was attacked, but it was suppressed by Mobius. Subsequently, due to various events, she no longer paid attention to these matters, but now...

It seems that someone really wants to test their limits.

"Forehead..."

Klein didn't know how to answer, after all, she knew Ling Xi's current strength.

"Ling Xi, things haven't come to that yet."

Seeing that Ling Xi was a little agitated, Mobius also laughed and said, "Things aren't as bad as you think. Anyone can argue. Klein, just reply to them and say that we are researching it and that the Sixth Herrscher will definitely not go out of control. In short... say that we will cooperate as much as possible, but as for promises... don't make any of them."

"Okay, I understand, Doctor..."

Klein continued to nod silently, strictly following his Doctor's orders.

"Don't worry, Seele."

Mobius smiled and looked at Seele, saying, "As long as you don't leave the research institute, they won't find any opportunity, unless they want to start a war, but I don't think they dare to take that blame."

"That's right!"

Ling Xi nodded silently and smiled, "At least I've saved the world twice, and out of nearly 10 billion people in the world, I think most people still remember me. If all else fails, I can publicly express some opinions, and I estimate I'll get a lot of support!"

At this moment, Ling Xi finally felt that popularity was finally somewhat useful, at least... in times like these, reputation was still somewhat useful!

He was someone who had saved the world twice. With so many people in the world, even if they didn't support him, they were unlikely to oppose him, after all, he had saved them before!

"Um..."

Although Seele was still a little worried, she still chose to believe Ling Xi and Mobius, after all... there was no one else she could trust.

"Alright, Seele."

After finishing their business, Mobius smiled at Seele and said, "Go and play with Elysia first. I still need Ling Xi to cooperate with me on some tests, which will take about half an hour."

"Okay, sure."

Knowing that Mobius must have something important to discuss with Ling Xi, Seele obediently nodded and said to Ling Xi, "Well... Ling Xi, see you later!"

"Okay, see you later!"

Ling Xi nodded. Although she didn't want to be separated from Seele, since it was Mobius's idea, she would cooperate a little. Anyway, Seele's research institute was very safe, and Elysia was there to help keep an eye on things.

So Seele left the laboratory, and Mobius closed the door behind him, looking at Ling Xi with a serious expression.

"Um... Does the Doctor have something to say?"
