Date Her, Make Her Blush, Steal Her First Kiss / Thigh-High Socks Are a Manifestation of Combat Power!
Theresa suddenly realized:
"Brother Mo Yi's health is very important."
Raiden Mei also agreed, saying:
"We'll try to go in quietly, and if he's sleeping or resting, we shouldn't wake him."
Kallen: Although I won't say anything, I agree, I'll cover the rear!
PS: Chapter 44, Yue Xia 1.5: After the two finished breakfast, they officially began their gift-choosing journey. However, Mo Yi, who initially thought choosing a gift would be simple, quickly became bewildered. Dragged around by Mo Yi Yue Xia, he saw countless things, but when asked to offer suggestions, he realized he had absolutely no idea what Kallen liked—what she liked, what colors she liked, what to choose! So, his only use was accompanying Yue Xia around. "Let's give her clothes as a gift," Theresa suggested. Theresa's method was to try things on herself and let Mo Yi see if they looked good. Since Yue Xia resembled Kallen as a child, if she looked good, buying a larger size should be enough. Mo Yi thought this made sense, so he began to help Yue Xia judge how she looked in her new clothes. Well, to be honest, cute and pretty people look good in anything, so after shopping for over half an hour, they still hadn't decided on a gift for Kallen. However, Mo Yi didn't find it boring. Perhaps it was because it was the first time a woman had taken him shopping, and it was all new and exciting, especially since the woman was the lovely Yue Xia, who always managed to make Mo Yi feel happy. Moreover, she seemed to be having a great time, Mo Yi couldn't bear to interrupt.
Chapter 152: Date her, make her blush, and steal her first kiss
When Mo Yi brought Kallen back, closed the door, and returned to his room, the Heroic Moment lasted for only a dozen seconds.
What can a real man do in the last ten seconds or so?
Mo Yi's choice was to quickly change into his pajamas, lie down on the bed, cover himself with the blanket, and wait for the dull emptiness that followed his body convulsing.
"3, 2, 1—"
When the time came, Mo Yi, who had thought he could solo the Anti-Entropy Orphanage dungeon just a second ago, suddenly shrank back, and all his strength and spirit vanished in an instant.
Fortunately, Mo Yi didn't experience the pain he had imagined; instead, he felt only physical fatigue and mental boredom.
Despite being very sleepy, Mo Yi couldn't fall asleep. She tried to distract herself by thinking about other things, but found herself lacking the energy. Mo Yi's only feeling was that there was nothing left to love.
If Mo Yi had to describe it, the closest feeling would be like this: after a few days off, you have to go to school or work tomorrow, so you lie in bed early, feeling very sleepy but just can't fall asleep – that agonizing feeling.
However, Mo Yi's feeling at this moment was simply amplified countless times.
Fortunately, this maddening, bizarre feeling of fatigue subsided after three minutes, turning into a normal, sage-like state.
Feeling completely drained, both physically and mentally, Mo Yi didn't want to do anything. The game didn't matter anymore, nor did his girlfriend. All he wanted to do was lie down like a salted fish, daydream, and think about why the sky was so blue and the clouds so white.
After a while, Mo Yi finally mustered his energy. Since there was nothing he could do at the moment, he decided to check the message that the Little World Game had sent him not long ago.
I hadn't really looked at it properly before.
Then Mo Yi saw the reward he got from "Honkai 3rd: My Pufferfish Raising Diary": 200 crystals as usual, which could be used to buy Pokémon Series games for 100 crystals (original price 1000 crystals).
The Pokémon game mentioned here refers to the handheld version that Mo Yi played during his childhood. At that time, it was Mo Yi's favorite game.
In a game where you can buy 1000 crystals with 100 crystals, you can't possibly lose out.
As for what new abilities Mo Yi gain from the Pokémon games, he could roughly guess that, apart from being able to unlock items that had appeared in the game in the shop, it would be nothing more than Pokemon abilities, or simply being able to summon them directly.
When it comes to Pokémon, most people instinctively think of Pikachu, the yellow, violent electric mouse. Of course, the protagonist's Pikachu is the most powerful, but the Pikachu in the Pokémon World is not a Pokemon that excels at fighting.
Well, besides Pikachu, there should also be Charmander, Squirtle, and other classic cute Pokémon, as well as Squirtle, the trainer who worked hard for twenty years and finally won the championship with a convoluted and unscientific move. "I use my Thornmail to reflect the damage that your Thornmail reflects back."
After saying all that, all Mo Yi wanted to say was that he was definitely going to buy this game, which was practically free, so he clicked "buy" directly.
Half of the 200 crystals I just received have disappeared instantly.
A handheld console then appeared in Mo Yi's inventory.
Well, Mo Yi thought he could play the game directly on the Little World Game interface or by downloading it to his phone or computer. Little did he know that Little World Game was a game manufacturer with a sense of nostalgia, and specially created a handheld console for Mo Yi to play Pokémon Series games.
After examining the handheld console in his hand, which displayed "Indestructible, Unlimited Battery," Mo Yi, despite its appearance being no different from the handheld console he played back in elementary school, still had a bold idea.
Should I try to figure out a set of "handheld fighting techniques"? After all, this is an "indestructible" artifact backed by Little World Game. Even without other effects, its indestructibility alone makes it a true artifact.
No matter how fancy the opponent's attack is, as long as it's not a map-wide attack with a particularly large area of effect, Mo Yi's handheld console, which he uses as a 'brick', will block it all directly.
If you're close, just use it like a brick and smash it on the other person's head.
It can usually be placed on the heart and used as a heart protector, making it a truly multifunctional gadget.
After studying it for a while, Mo Yi put the handheld device away because there was still something in his inventory that he needed to examine and study: the 'Pufferfish Proof' that had been transformed from the Pufferfish Raising Diary.
Okay, this thing is clearly labeled as Kiana's exclusive equipment, Mo Yi doesn't need to think too much about it. But after taking a closer look at its effects, isn't this just a cheat code that the Little World Game gave to Kiana, the Heroine the Honkai World?
The first effect, 'Resilience,' is self-explanatory; it's used to enhance Kiana's resistance to Honkai, allowing her to better manipulate the power of the Herrscher.
The second effect, 'Bond Transformation', allows you to enter a Bond Transformation state by forming a deep bond with other Herrscher (100% affinity), gaining the power and abilities of the corresponding Herrscher.
This is clearly a common setup in those Bishojo Game where you need to win over the Heroine to save the world!
For example, the famous "Date-A-Live" involves raising the affection level of a spirit (the Heroine) and then sealing (absorbing) the spirit's power through kissing, thereby protecting the world.
It's you, Kiana Kaslana! You dated Herrscher, made her blush, stole her first kiss, and added her to your harem!
This ability is basically encouraging Kiana to work harder to win over other Herrscher, could it be?!
Previously, when Little World Game was delivering goods, they used airdrop crates with the HOMU pattern from Honkai Impact 3rd. Now it's confirmed that Little World Game definitely has a secret relationship with Mihoyo!
At this moment, Mo Yi had another bold idea. Well, it's normal to have broader thinking when you're in "sage mode."
Winning over one Kiana is the same as winning over a whole group of Herrscher, isn't it? Brilliant, absolutely brilliant!
Ahem, never mind, let's stop daydreaming and get down to business.
The purpose of the Pufferfish Certificate has been roughly figured out. For Mo Yi, its only use is to give it to Kiana.
However, the Pufferfish Certificate is still in Mo Yi's inventory, displaying 'Please select appearance (once selected, it cannot be changed)'.
Simply put, it means that Mo Yi is asked to imagine a certain shape, and then the Pufferfish Certificate will be sculpted into that shape.
This item needs to be carried by Kiana at all times, so it's best suited as a personal accessory, such as the Rune Stone necklace that Mo Yi gave Kiana before.
Now that we have a necklace, let's think about other things. We can't wear two necklaces, can we? That would look so silly.
Besides necklaces, the most common accessory that came to Mo Yi's mind was a ring.
PS: Chapter 45, Yue Xia 1.6: Mo Yi and Yue Xia spent a long time shopping in the mall but still couldn't find a suitable gift. Finally, Mo Yi bought Yue Xia two new dresses. Of course, she didn't ask for them; he just noticed her reluctant look after trying them on, so he bought them as a polite gesture. Mo Yi, of course, didn't know that Theresa's usual clothes were all created by his abilities. Theresa also liked receiving gifts from Mo Yi and couldn't resist the temptation, accepting only two dresses and refusing the others, advising Mo Yi not to buy any more. (Mo Yi: I'm collecting so much rent now, and even my daily meals are being bought by others—I, Mo Yi, am rich!) While the two were still shopping, Mo Yi's phone suddenly rang. He picked it up and saw it was Miss Mei Yue Xia, Mo Yi answered the call. "Mei, what's up?" Miss Mei's usual gentle voice came through the phone. "I made breakfast and then realized you weren't in your room, so I was a little worried." "I'm sorry, I had some urgent business to attend to today and had to leave early. I forgot to tell everyone, so I made you make extra breakfast." Miss Mei: "..." That's not what I care about! Mo Yi seemed to hear a series of crackling sounds on the phone. Was the signal bad?
Chapter 153: Thigh-high stockings are a testament to combat power!
Of course, the idea of a ring only briefly crossed Mo Yi's mind before he dismissed it. After all, the people of this world didn't understand the romance of the One Ring. (The One Ring was touted as so amazing, but aside from the ability to make one invisible, it was utterly useless! In other mystical worlds, invisibility would be a common, ubiquitous ability.)
