Chapter 255
It's normal for them to cause a ruckus for a while, just like how it's impossible to persuade Apponia and Chakravartin to have a pleasant conversation. As long as nothing serious happens, Flame-Chasers tacitly approves.
The problem is the cost.
Both Vill-V and Mobius were logistics personnel, and they were absolutely unwilling to settle their differences in strength like the Flame-Chasers.
Ultimately, the method they chose was simply to burn money.
They throw dangerous objects at each other's buildings as if they were free; the impact is enormous and the effect is significant.
In just those few minutes, they almost ruined a major research project.
It's all about who has the resources and can afford to spend so much. Everything is good except for the money. If they don't care about the cost, then they're definitely not genuine.
But there's no way around it; face is there, confidence is there, and when it comes to things that need to be fought for, we still have to fight for victory.
Su: "How about we find someone to persuade them both to come down?"
While both are logistics-related, Su Ming's message wasn't about drones and biological viruses flying overhead, but rather the funding for the Fire Moth.
It breaks my heart!
The fight against the Honkai, a monumental undertaking for all humanity, will only require more and more funding in the future, and the human and material resources needed will only grow ever larger.
How could they possibly withstand such abuse?!
Pardofelis: "Sister Eden, what do you say?"
Ultimately, Eden is the real boss of the Fire Moth; the money that Mobius and Vill-V created all came from her pocket.
Eden: "It's nothing, just expending some material possessions. Let's relax and watch the exposure first."
With that, Eden raised his glass and downed it in one gulp, his eyes glazed over as he slumped onto the table.
Write it down in your notebook: the budgets for Vill-V and Mobius next quarter will be reduced by ten percent!
Those two are just too much!
Eden doesn't care about money, but the actions of Vill-V and Mobius clearly indicate that they gave themselves too much budget, funds that were just for fun.
If Eden had even half the stinginess of the former Fire Moth, those two wouldn't have done something like this!
After deducting the budget, Eden focused solely on drinking, letting the two women fool around.
In the scene, Mobius is in the laboratory, quietly admiring the work she has completed herself.
This is Fifty Thousand Years, a time when, for an era, the death knell had just tolled. Humanity won the battle against the Herrscher of Corruption, but lost the entire battlefield.
The culprit behind all this, that terrifying black cube, lies on the experimental table.
"Dr. Mobius, I can't let you continue like this."
The Klein doll stopped Mobius and advised, "Even if that idea could actually succeed, your compatibility with her is just too poor."
Klein referring to the experiments Mobius was conducting on the Herrscher of Corruption.
Study the Herrscher of Corruption, become the Herrscher of Corruption, and then transcend the Herrscher of Corruption.
After the black cube fell into Mobius's hands, the genius of the century conceived of this possibility and conducted extensive experiments.
And now, she's almost there.
Mobius was confident in her experiments, and even Klein couldn't stop her.
"Klein, don't you think they'd be more effective as reminders?"
Mobius unfolded the cuffs of his sleeves, concealing the spreading black lines.
A virus that Herrscher of Corruption.
This unique type of wound only appears when the body is eroded.
"Klein, every experiment carries risks; you should have understood that long ago."
Mobius raised an eyebrow and asked, "Why did you suddenly come back? Shouldn't you be in Eden receiving the Previous Era Elysian Realm?"
"..."
Klein remained silent, not wanting to reveal the person behind him.
But Mobius was certainly aware of the ins and outs.
"Did Cang Xuan tattle on you?"
"Um."
Klein nodded.
Since Dr. Mobius guessed it, there's no point in hiding it anymore.
For some special reasons, Cang Xuan left Mobius's laboratory. Now, she is the only one who can communicate with Mobius and stop Mobius.
"Don't waste my time, Klein. Aren't there plenty of people who have left me because they didn't understand? It's no big deal."
Mobius shouted, his voice tinged with a low murmur.
"If you're like her... then it's up to you."
That's what he said, but Klein knew perfectly well that if he were to leave too, Dr. Mobius would truly be all alone.
The doctor appears cold and strong, but in reality, she is simply walking a path different from everyone else, saving humanity in her own way.
She needs someone who understands her too!
"No, I know what the doctor wants, and I won't object."
Klein shook his head and continued, "But according to what Cang Xuan said, aren't you being too stubborn this time?"
"Even if the experiment succeeds and the Doctor does become something similar to the Twelfth Herrscher, with his original body already sealed off from the village, there are no more viruses for him to control."
Without a controllable virus, the Herrscher of Corruption is nothing more than a spider's torso.
"The best outcome you can achieve is that you cease to be human."
"Does this mean I can be called human now?"
Mobius countered with a question.
Isn't it quite obvious what kind of image the so-called Thirteen Flame-Chasers, especially Mobius, had in the eyes of others?
"Doctor, you..."
"Alright, you've wasted enough time."
Klein about to speak when Mobius interrupted him.
"Don't call me stubborn anymore. I'm never stubborn, just greedy. Who else but me has that right?"
A strong light shone in Mobius's vertical eyes.
"Understand God, create God, and ultimately... trample God!"
Klein shook his head, realizing he couldn't stop Mobius, and ultimately chose to stand on Mobius's side.
The video ends here.
Cang Xuan: "It's about that incident back then. I still remember it. Senior Sister Klein ultimately chose Dr. Mobius."
Unsurprisingly.
Although it was just a doll created based on Senior Sister Klein, it was indeed, like Senior Sister Klein, an interpreter of the Doctor.
Even though Cang Xuan and Danzhu chose to leave Dr. Mobius, Klein still chose to believe in Mobius in the end, never giving up and never betraying him.
Mobius: "I almost forgot, you two have the nerve to come back. I'm magnanimous, I'll settle accounts with you after I've dealt with Vill-V."
The biological virus supply was running low, so Mobius quickly replicated it and launched it towards the Spiral Workshop.
Vill-V: "Afraid of you, Mobius?!"
Not to be outdone, Vill-V went directly to the workshop's control panel and had an expert manually develop the drone.
Back when she Fire Moth, she could create drones far ahead of their time from scraps. Now, in the Spiral Workshop, as long as there are enough materials, she can make as many drones as she wants.
I need to take leave.

Chapter 414 Creating Gods, Trampling Gods
Inside the Death Space, the biological virus and drones are still colliding, and the long period of time is almost enough to deplete the resources that Mobius and Vill-V have accumulated during this time.
The spectators below were unaware of these things.
Danzhu: "Cang Xuan, what do we do?"
Cang Xuan: "I'm also thinking of a solution."
They did indeed betray Mobius and leave the laboratory.
Although Mobius has brought them back and, disregarding past grievances, is still providing them with subsidies, the two women know very well that Mobius extremely stingy.
They might already be plotting how to deal with them after they've dealt with Vill-V.
Cang Xuan and Danzhu exchanged a glance, understanding a single meaning from each other's eyes.
Something has to be done now!
Danzhu: "Doctor, go for it! Take down the drone! Long live the lab!"
Cang Xuan: "I'll go and copy the virus for you."
Mobius: "At least you two have some conscience."
Although Cang Xuan and Danzhu are the lab's mascots, they are purely a nuisance when Klein is around.
But given the current shortage of manpower, replicating the virus is a simple task that poses no difficulty for them.
Welt: "We've been fighting for half a day now, and you still have so many resources and materials?"
As a fellow scientist, Welt knew very well how expensive Mobius and Vill-V's actions were.
With these resources, wouldn't it be better to conduct more experiments and develop new projects?!
Su: "After all, it's logistics; stockpiling some resources as backups is perfectly reasonable."
It's reasonable, but it can't withstand such exploitation. Su can almost see the Honkai Energy Serum Project, and next month's financial statements will be dirt poor.
It will definitely have an impact.
Although his medical department and Mobius's laboratory belong to two different departments, the Honkai Energy Serum Project is jointly managed by both parties.
If Mobius fails to produce results, we'll find ourselves in an awkward situation.
This is tricky!
Bronya: "Bronya has a question to ask."
Elysia: "Is it between Mobius and Vill-V, who will win?"
Bronya: "No, Bronya just suddenly remembered that Mobius said at the end of the exposure that he wanted to create gods and trample on gods, right? Bronya has a bad feeling."
The Bronya's senses suddenly became unusually sharp.
She didn't take Mobius's last words as arrogant boasting.
Although Mobius was a bit arrogant, she did have the right to be. Whatever she said, no matter how unbelievable, she had the ability to achieve it.
Therefore, Bronya believes that the idea of creating gods and trampling on them is true!
Theresa: "You're overthinking it, Bronya. How could the Will of Honkai be related to Mobius?"
Himeko Murata: "The Previous Era was Honkai by the Honkai. Even if Mobius longs for Infinity, I believe she would never betray us."
Flame-Chasers has his own pride.
They might fiercely attack their teammates for their beliefs and ideals, but when faced with a common enemy, none of them would betray them by defecting to the enemy.
Mobius: "I like to hear that. It's rare to find someone who isn't prejudiced against me."
Bronya: "Mobius, you did say you wanted to create gods, didn't you? And you may have already lived into the Current Era. Bronya thinks you should have had some connection with the Honkai Consciousness."
Bronya: "And to even be a little bolder..."
Halfway through her sentence, Bronya fell silent again, looking down as if deep in thought.
