Of course, the most important reason, and also the reason why Mobius decisively abandoned these people, is that, just like in Changkong City back then, no one knows the identity of the Ninth Herrscher. If they rashly evacuate, it will only cause greater losses!

Chapter 372: Did the Eighth Herrscher take the script from the Seventh Herrscher?

"By the way, Doctor, where is Eden now?"

Speaking of Eden, Ling Xi also inquired about Eden's situation, because to be honest, after experiencing two of Eden's concerts, Ling Xi also became a fan of Eden.

Of course, I only became a fan of Eden because I enjoyed her music. It had nothing to do with her perfect looks, enormous wealth, or gentle personality. I just like music!

All I can say is that music truly has a healing effect.

"In Shenzhou."

Mobius naturally knew what Ling Xi was worried about, and smiled, "After all, her next concert will be held in Canghai City, Shenzhou, so she went to Shenzhou a few days ago to prepare. The concert will also take place over two days, and..."

"If nothing unexpected happens, her subsequent plans will not include a trip back to the Mu Continent."

"Shenzhou Canghai City?"

Upon hearing the city's name, Ling Xi hesitated slightly before asking, "I remember Canghai City was also affected by the Third Honkai Eruption, and because the Honkai outbreaks have been quite frequent recently, there are still sporadic Honkai Beast around Canghai City. Is Eden safe...?"

Although Ling Xi knew very well that Eden would become Fused Warrior in the future, and even a future Flame-Chasers, but...

Even if she becomes incredibly powerful in the future, she's still just an ordinary person right now. If she encounters any danger, wouldn't she be doomed?

Even if Eden has bodyguards and even an army around him, what good are they when facing the Honkai?

"Don't worry, I've assigned a special team to ensure her safety."

Mobius smiled again and calmly said, "Moreover, it's the Fifth Squad, where your old acquaintance Hua is. I haven't changed their squad number, so it's still called the Fifth Squad, but..."

Mobius smiled slightly and said, "Unlike before, the captain of the fifth squad Himiko, has now become Fused Warrior, and a powerful Fused Warrior whose Honkai Energy Adaptability exceeds 500HW."

"In addition, among the remaining members, there are three Fused Warriors with a power of over 100HW. The current fifth squad is now capable of dealing with any danger below the Emperor-class Honkai Beast, so don't worry, Eden will be fine!"

"I see..."

Ling Xi nodded thoughtfully. Indeed, a 500HW Fused Warrior should generally be able to defeat a normal low-level Honkai Beast, but...

Eden, Himiko, Hua...

Wait, this lineup looks so familiar... Holy crap, isn't this the script for The Seventh Herrscher?

That's right, Ling Xi remembers it very clearly. The script for the Seventh Herrscher seems to be set in Oceania, where Himiko into the Seventh Herrscher, Fu Hua saves Eden, and finally Kevin fuses with the Ice Pig's genes to kill the Seventh Herrscher!

However, the Seventh Herrscher has already been snatched away by himself, so probably, maybe, or even 80% of the time, there shouldn't be any problem!

"What? Do you think there's a problem?"

Seeing Ling Xi's somewhat conflicted expression, Mobius pressed her for details. After all, she knew very well that Ling Xi knew more about certain things than she did, so if Ling Xi felt there was a problem, she had to take it seriously.

"Um... it's nothing, it's just..."

Ling Xi sighed and smiled, "Himiko... she probably won't become Herrscher, right?"

Mobius "..."

Clearly, Mobius knew what Ling Xi meant, because according to the original script, the Seventh Herrscher should have been Himiko; it was only Ling Xi's interference that changed history. But...

Mei and I conducted a comprehensive test on Himiko. Apart from her high Honkai Energy Adaptability, she was no different from a normal human. In addition, she has always been an excellent Flame-Chasing Moths Warrior, which is why I was willing to let her become Fused Warrior. After all...

The matter of the Seventh Herrscher is all in the past, Himiko should be fine!

Could it be... that Ling Xi thinks Himiko will become the Eighth Herrscher?

Well, that's unlikely, because there's a compatibility requirement between Herrscher and humans. Aside from Ling Xi, who's practically a universally compatible monster, the other Herrscher and their powers have special connections. And Himiko's body is clearly only suitable to be the Seventh Herrscher, not the Eighth Herrscher, so...

The probability is almost zero!

"Then how about this, I'll send Kevin over too."

After a slight hesitation, Mobius continued, "Kevin's Honkai Energy Adaptability has now exceeded 1800HW, and recently Mebius is preparing to have me perform the Hypervariable Surgery on Kevin. With him there, we can definitely protect Eden."

Ling Xi: "??? Holy crap, if we were missing Kevin just now, then the script for the Seventh Herrscher is now complete!"

"Uh, cough cough."

Ling Xi coughed lightly and said calmly, "Doctor, well... what about Kevin? Please don't send him. I'll go myself."

"Um?"

Hearing Ling Xi's words, Mobius seemed somewhat surprised and asked with a smile, "What? Do you... think something might happen at this concert?"

"That's not entirely true, but Canghai City is ultimately prone to Honkai events, anyway..."

At this point, Ling Xi shrugged and laughed, "Who can really explain metaphysics? It just so happens that Elysia really likes Eden's concerts, so I'll take her with me. Consider it a vacation."

Although the Seventh Herrscher incident is over, after what happened with Seele, Ling Xi still feels that one should still have faith in superstitions when necessary. After all, Eden, Himiko, Hua, and Kevin —the buffs are already maxed out, so...

Ling Xi felt she needed to go, since she had nothing else to do anyway, so she decided to treat it as taking Elysia out for fun.

"Alright, I have no objections."

Although Mobius didn't quite understand why Ling Xi insisted on going, she wouldn't refuse Ling Xi's request. She simply asked, "Besides Elysia, who else are you planning to bring along?"

"Elysia is enough!"

Ling Xi calmly said, "Although this is a vacation, Canghai City is not particularly safe. Seele and Ling definitely can't go. It's better for Ying to stay at home, so we'll just bring Elysia."

"That's true."

Mobius nodded again and smiled, "However, if Seele and the others knew that you only took Elysia on vacation, they would probably be a little upset."

"Well..."

Ling Xi also thought about it for a moment. Sakura was relatively easy to handle, but Seele and Ling might be a bit troublesome, however...

Perhaps using the excuse of going out on a mission would work, so Ling Xi smiled at Mobius and said, "Doctor, could you please assign me and Elysia a mission? Any mission will do."

"Yes, no problem."

Mobius pursed his lips, feeling a little annoyed. If he hadn't been too busy, he would definitely have gone with Ling Xi, letting that Pink Elf have it!

Chapter 373: I look so beautiful in my wedding dress!

The following day, Ling Xi and Elysia arrived at Canghai City International Airport by plane.

"Hmm... Shenzhou, it's been a while since I've been Shenzhou."

Elysia stretched lazily, showing off her perfect figure, and turned to look at Ling Xi, laughing, "Hey, can you hurry up? If you keep dawdling, it'll be dark soon."

Ling Xi "..."

"Then you could help me carry these things."

Ling Xi glared at Elysia with annoyance. This mission was basically a vacation, so the two of them naturally brought some luggage. However, the Space Gem was currently being researched by Mobius, so Ling Xi had to carry it manually.

"Tch, what guy would ask his girlfriend to help him move things?"

Elysia just smiled, then turned around again to walk forward, saying with a smile, "Hurry up, hurry up, let's go to the hotel and put our things away. We have so many places to go."

Ling Xi "..."

"Why..."

Helpless, Ling Xi could only drag her suitcase and follow, saying, "Elysia, don't forget we have a mission in Shenzhou."

"Tch, a mission, huh?"

Elysia rolled her eyes at Ling Xi and deliberately laughed, "Is Honkai so easy to break out? Besides, the Fused Warrior of the Flame-Chasing Moths can handle ordinary Honkai. To put it bluntly, you just want to come out and play with me, right?"

"Eh... well, you could say that, since it's my first time going out with Elysia like this."

Ling Xi smiled and didn't deny it. After all, she did want to go out and have some fun alone with Elysia. They had been together for so long, and although they had spent a lot of time alone Elysia, they had never spent a holiday together like this before.

Therefore, Ling Xi also planned to take this opportunity to bring Elysia out for some fun. After all, human society has entered a new stage, and in a while, there won't be any more opportunities to go on vacation, because...

The subsequent Herrscher were truly utterly unreasonable beings!

"That settles it then, let's go!"

Elysia smiled happily, then took Ling Xi's arm and pulled Ling Xi forward!

Soon, the two arrived at their pre-booked hotel room, dropped off their luggage, and went out to have some fun.

Although most entertainment facilities have been closed due to the new policy, the service industry is still operating normally. After all, even if tomorrow is the end of the world, we still have to eat today.

So, although people's lives have changed somewhat, travel is still not a problem.

For convenience, the two bought a new car. Then, Elysia, true to form, finished a cup of milk tea in the new car before driving around Canghai City, visiting many fun places.

"Hey, Ling Xi!"

As they passed a wedding dress showroom, Elysia suddenly stopped, then took Ling Xi's hand and said with a smile, "Shall we go in and take a look?"

"Oh?"

Seeing the spot Elysia was pointing to, Ling Xi immediately became interested and deliberately asked, "What, Elysia, do you want to try it?"

"Uh-huh."

This time, Elysia stopped joking and nodded very seriously, smiling as she said, "Although your first time was taken by Mobius, and you even got your marriage certificate before Mobius, it shouldn't be too much to ask me to wear a wedding dress for the first time, right?"

"Ah... good!"

Since it was Elysia's idea, Ling Xi naturally didn't hesitate at all and immediately led Elysia inside.

"Hello, you two, how can I help you?"

As soon as they entered the experience center, a female staff member greeted them and politely inquired about their needs.

"Let's take a look!"

Elysia didn't immediately reveal her purpose, but instead pulled Ling Xi inside. There they saw all sorts of wedding dresses—Chinese, Western, and even anime-style ones. All I can say is...

Times are changing.

Afterwards, Elysia tried on several wedding dresses, and after each dress, she asked Ling Xi to take a picture of her, then asked Ling Xi if it suited her, if it looked good, etc. As for this...

Ling Xi could only say that any wedding dress worn by Elysia would look good on her; this girl really is the type who looks good in anything, a natural clothes hanger!

Finally, at Elysia's insistence, Ling Xi chose an outfit, Ling Xi into the dress, and the two took photos together!

"Wow, I look so beautiful in my wedding dress."

After leaving the stadium, Elysia was still admiring her photos and couldn't help but laugh, "I really look forward to wearing it again in the future, and... I promise I'll dress up next time, it will definitely look even better."

You are beautiful enough as you are now.

Ling Xi, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but laugh and said, "However, I do hope that day will come, after all, you promised me."

"Hehe, don't worry, I won't lie."

Elysia blinked and deliberately looked at Ling Xi with a smile, "After all, I'm not like someone who likes to be my dog all the time, and even likes to lick my feet like a dog. What a strange XP system."

Ling Xi "..."

"Cough cough."

Ling Xi coughed loudly. This girl, you've gone too far! Do you think I like you? I'm clearly just lusting after your body, okay?

Even though I learned to bark like a dog and kissed Elysia's foot, I still managed to beat her in the end. So, you have to give up something to gain something, understand?

Although, I don't actually dislike doing that to Elysia...

After all, Elysia is both a beautiful girl and a wife, and who wouldn't like a wife like that?

"Let's go, to the next stop!"

While Ling Xi was lost in thought, Elysia had already left Ling Xi behind and set off. After all, the holiday was short, only a few days long, so...

Make the most of your time and have fun!

"Wait for me, Elysia!"

Ling Xi quickly caught up with her. To be honest, Ling Xi really enjoyed shopping with Elysia because Elysia was very decisive and didn't dawdle when shopping. She would usually pick out anything she liked at a glance without fussing over it!

However, for some reason, this girl always has such good taste; almost everything she chooses is either the best or the most suitable!

And so, Ling Xi accompanied Elysia around Canghai City for a day, and then returned to the hotel in the evening to carry out the usual... elimination of side effects!

Yes, that's part of the mission too!
