Mu Continent? I'm Outta Here!
Ling Xi had Elysia on her left and Mobius on her right. Although Sakura and Seele seemed a little resentful, they couldn't say anything, after all...
No one dared to challenge Mobius's position, but Elysia's position...
It has to be said that Elysia, this "Queen of Rolls," usually loses more games than she wins, but when it comes to crucial moments, she never loses a single game.
In short, that's the situation!
As for the others, Ling stayed next to Sakura, Klein and Seele sat together, and the two old ancestors who hadn't appeared in over a hundred chapters also sat together.
Kevin and May were sitting together, and Sue was ruthlessly abandoned!
While this concert wasn't as amazing as Ling Xi's first viewing, the impact it had was far greater than the one in Changkong City!
The concert in Changkong City had at most a little over ten thousand people, given the limited venue size. But this time...
Truly, a full 180,000 people—the roar of that roaring crowd could only be felt by experiencing it firsthand. But in Ling Xi's eyes...
Perhaps only MJ in later generations can catch up with Eden today. These two... are the greatest artists of these two civilizations!
With the concert coming to a close, Eden's farewell to the Mu Continent has officially ended, and the first concert has come to a successful conclusion!
"Ah, as expected of Eden, the concert was still so wonderful. It's just a pity that we will never hear it again."
Back at the research institute, Elysia still seemed a little regretful. After all, such a wonderful concert, music that could be called a treasure of humanity, had become its swan song.
"Let's listen to an album."
Ling Xi smiled and said, "Eden's songs today, except for the last one, all have albums. I'll give them to you if you like."
"No the same."
Elysia shook her head and laughed, "An album is just an album. No matter how good it is, it can't compare to the feeling of being there live. That kind of overwhelming, soul-stirring sound can only be experienced live."
"Then let's go to another continent."
Ling Xi smiled again and said, "After all, there are a total of five Eden Reincarnation Concerts. The one in the Mu Continent is over, but there are still one each in Shenzhou, America, Africa, and Europe. If you really want to listen, I'll go with you."
"Hehe, never mind, I appreciate the kindness, but it's unnecessary!"
Elysia shook her head and smiled, "After all, it's such a wonderful concert. If I go, there will be one less person to be there. This kind of concert... shouldn't be enjoyed by me alone, because... that's what Eden meant."
"Hehe, it seems that Elysia understands me best after all..."
Suddenly, a familiar voice reached my ears.
"Eden?"
Ling Xi hurriedly turned around and saw Miss Eden, who had just been performing on stage!
"Hmm, good evening, Ling Xi."
Eden greeted Ling Xi with a lazy smile.
"Wow, it's Eden! What are you doing here? Did you come to see me?"
When Elysia saw Eden, she went straight over and gently hugged her, saying with a smile, "I thought you had forgotten about your friend."
"Hehe, how could that be?"
Eden laughed and said, "Even if I forget everyone else, I could never forget you, Elysia."
"Hehe, so you've come to see me?"
Elysia asked curiously.
"That's not it..."
Eden shook his head slightly, then looked at Ling Xi and smiled, "I'm just here to discuss some things with Dr. Mobius, and by the way... to get to know our human hero, Ling Xi."
"Heh, I'm no hero. Miss Eden, just call me Ling Xi."
Upon hearing those two words, Ling Xi felt a little... But in any case, Ling Xi had no ill will toward Eden, after all, Eden had shown himself to be a very gentle person in the Elysian Realm.
"Okay, then Ling Xi can just call me Eden."
Eden maintained his smile, but also looked at Elysia with a hint of reproach, deliberately laughing, "Elysia, if it weren't for the Fourth Herrscher incident, I wouldn't even know about your relationship. You actually kept such an important matter from your friend, isn't that a bit too much?"
"Hehe, that's because it happened so suddenly."
Elysia laughed and said, "After all, Ling Xi was willing to face the Herrscher for my sake. Any girl would fall for her under such circumstances, right? Besides... you're such a busy person, how could I possibly take up your time?"
"That makes sense..."
Eden didn't argue with Elysia, but just laughed and said, "However, after the next few concerts, I think I'll become the most idle person in the world. Also, after this round of concerts, I'll lose my job. Elysia, you'll have to help me out then."
Elysia "..."
Ling Xi "..."
Eden's words, especially the last one, left Elysia speechless. (The phrase "provide aid..." is a slang term and doesn't translate directly.)
Well, with this rich woman's wealth, even if she donated half of it, the rest would be enough for her to squander for 100,000 years. It's no exaggeration to say that she's incredibly wealthy.
"Ha, just kidding."
Eden waved his hand and laughed, "But to be honest, I should be quite free after this month, and I'll definitely come looking for you then."
"Then come on over."
Elysia laughed and said, "To be honest, we don't have much to do all day. After all, research is the job of Mobius and the others. I would be more than happy if you could come and play with me."
"It's a deal then. I'll come find you when I have some free time."
Eden nodded, then noticed that Mobius had also returned, and smiled at the two of them, saying, "Well then, gentlemen, let's end our conversation here for now. I have some things to discuss with Mobius. See you next time."
"Okay, see you next time!"
Elysia also waved goodbye.
"Okay, goodbye."
Ling Xi also said goodbye.
So Eden turned and went to find Mobius. As for what they would discuss, Ling Xi didn't care.
"I didn't expect you to know Eden."
As Eden left, Ling Xi looked at Elysia with some curiosity. Although they were both members of the Thirteen Flame-Chasers, Elysia must have known Eden, but...
Ling Xi was somewhat surprised that the two of them already knew each other.
"Hehe, I happened to have contact with her when I was on a mission, so that's how we met."
Elysia smiled, but didn't seem to want to explain further. She took Ling Xi's arm and said with a smile, "Let's go, let's go home. I'll tell you slowly tonight."
Ling Xi "..."
Chapter 371: Mu Continent? I'm outta here!
With Eden's concert in the Mu Continent coming to a close, Mobius has also begun its headquarters relocation plan!
The reason Mobius publicly gave was quite simple: the destructive power of the Herrscher was simply too strong. In order to prevent the human elite from being wiped out by a single Herrscher, like when the Seventh Herrscher unleashed her power, the scientists in the research institute were divided into ten groups!
The ten groups went to different continents to establish research institutes, but they were not completely separated because they would all be subject to the unified arrangements of Mobius. Moreover, due to the advanced information technology, even if they were separated, they could hold online holographic meetings at any time!
The ten research institutes are divided into ten groups: two in Europe, two in Shenzhou, one each in North and South America, one each in Southeast Asia and Black Africa, and one each in Siberia and Antarctica. As for the research institute on the Mu Continent ...
Only a few scientists who were unwilling to leave remained, and Mobius did not try to persuade them further.
Mobius also acquired the United Nations' space carrier, intending to establish the core command center of the headquarters on it!
A week later, under Mobius's arrangement, Ling Xi brought everyone to Europe and moved into the new home that had been prepared in advance!
"Hmm, I didn't expect that we'd moved again in less than a year."
In the living room of her new home, Elysia sat on the sofa, stretching lazily. To be honest, Elysia was quite surprised by this move, because in terms of both climate and convenience, the capital of the Mu Continent was undoubtedly far superior to Europe!
Moreover, although Mu Continent suffered two blows from the Herrscher, it still has a solid foundation. Its development speed there is definitely faster than rebuilding from Europe!
However, considering that this was the consensus of both Mobius and Ling Xi, Elysia didn't say anything, because she knew that Ling Xi was no ordinary person and knew far more than they did, so...
Elysia guessed that it was probably because the Mu Continent would experience Third Honkai Eruption...
Of course, this is just speculation, the kind of speculation that has no basis whatsoever.
"I think this place is nice."
Seele was quite satisfied and smiled, "Although the climate may not be as good as on the Mu Continent, I still prefer it here."
As a European, Seele clearly prefers this side of the world.
"I don't mind. By the way, what would you like to eat for dinner?"
Sakura had no objection to this; she would go wherever Ling Xi went, and as for the new house...
Although it may feel a little unfamiliar, it's not a big problem. You'll get used to it after living here for a while, right?
"Sister Seele, should we choose a room first?"
Bell grabbed Seele, seemingly intending to strike first.
Ling Xi "..."
Seeing his wives chatting so happily, Ling Xi didn't bother to join in. He quietly walked over to Klein and Mobius and asked, "Doctor, how many people are still at the research institute on the Mu Continent?"
"There are about six core members and more than two hundred first-level members."
Klein looked at the data and said, "Because these people all grew up on the Mu Continent and their families are also on the Mu Continent, they are not particularly willing to leave."
"I see..."
Ling Xi nodded silently, not surprised by the result. After all, not everyone can accept leaving their homeland. As for announcing the Herrscher of Rock in advance, that was even more unrealistic. If they did that, the Ninth Herrscher might not descend on the Mu Continent, and the losses would only be greater!
"There's nothing we can do about it."
Mobius sighed and said, "I gave them my research institute to use. During this period, let's treat the research institute on the Mu Continent as the eleventh group. This is a way to keep the people of the Mu Continent calm. Otherwise, the people would probably think we are running away."
Ling Xi: "..." But we're on the run right now...
"And what about her?"
Ling Xi took out her phone, opened Einstein's message, and asked Mobius a question.
"Her?"
Mobius thought for a moment, then smiled helplessly, "I remember this girl is from the mechanical field, and her research on mechanics is probably the strongest at this stage. But unfortunately, she doesn't seem to want to leave Mu Continent, so she chose to stay there."
"I see..."
Ling Xi wasn't too surprised by Mobius's answer, just a little disappointed. She hadn't expected Möbius to make the same choice as in the comic. Hopefully this time...
She should be able to dodge the Herrscher of Rock's attack, although... even if she hides in the Quantum Sea, it's just a slow death.
"What, do you care about her a lot?"
Seeing Ling Xi looking thoughtful, Mobius asked another question out of curiosity.
"Um... it would be a lie to say I don't care, after all, she..."
Ling Xi sighed and smiled, "She's one of the few top big shots in the world, that's all... Anyway, if possible, I'd still prefer her to come to Europe with us."
"Impossible."
Mobius shook his head and chuckled, "Well, how should I put it? These scientists from the Mu Continent all harbor some deep-seated resentment. After all, Mu Continent was once the most developed continent in the world, and now it's being forced to withdraw. I think this is something many people can't accept, so..."
"We can only feel sorry about this; we can't exactly kidnap them, can we?"
"I know..."
Ling Xi could only nod silently. The father of Armed Doll, Einstein —that was fate...
However, even though Ling Xi felt regretful, she certainly couldn't go and kidnap the other party herself. After all, she and the other party had only met once and didn't have much contact. Most importantly, the other party wouldn't completely trust her.
So all I can do in this situation is feel sorry for myself!
Of course, if it were Elysia or Eden, I would definitely tie them up and bring them back, although given Elysia's obedience, she wouldn't stay, and as for Eden...
She probably won't be returning to the Mu Continent anytime soon, since her concerts Mu Continent are over. After her remaining four concerts, I'll have Mobius or Elysia bring Eden to Europe. Anyway...
Mu Continent is no longer a place to stay!
As for the remaining billion humans on the Mu Continent, Ling Xi had no choice but to give up. Although Ling Xi hadn't thought about saving humanity since the incident two months ago, whether he could do it was one thing, and whether they were worth it was another.
Just as the Fourth Herrscher once said, humanity... has never thanked itself, and they are not worth saving!
