Looking at the people around him, Möbius said with great interest.

"Can you tell me your name?"

Upon hearing this, Takahashi Yu smiled politely.

"Then let me introduce myself. My name is Takahashi Yu, and I'm the person in charge of that booth over there."

Takahashi Yu then answered.

"I see. So that booth over there is yours? And that research on Honkai energy was also your work?"

Glancing at the booth not far away, which was surrounded by a group of scholars who were constantly denouncing it, Möbius asked.

"To be precise, it should be the results of the researchers under my supervision. I just used some methods to publish it here."

"However, it seems that many people cannot accept it."

Takahashi Yu also took in the scene at the exhibition booth.

Unlike the timeline of the main Honkai Impact storyline, the people of the pre-Honkai civilization era seemed to have a very low level of acceptance of Honkai energy. The mere publication of some concepts about future Stigmata and some conjectures about Fusion Warriors deduced by the research department of the containment facility caused such a "sensation".

Fortunately, this effort was not without its rewards.

Mebius, one of the Thirteen Heroes in the original Honkai Impact story, was also the most outstanding biologist in the pre-Honkai civilization era. The creation of the Thirteen Heroes' Fusion Warrior Project was largely her doing.

For Takahashi Yu, besides serving as a backup energy source for the containment facility and continuously providing it with Honkai energy, the Honkai world is undoubtedly home to the world's top scientists.

"I'll remember your name for now. You're an interesting person, but I have some things to do right now. Let's meet again sometime."

Mebius waved to Takahashi Yu beside him, seemingly not intending to have a deeper conversation, and pulled Klein away.

Watching the two figures walk away, Takahashi Yu did not stop them.

He could tell that Mebius was clearly wary of his sudden contact.

Given Möbius's position in academia, it's possible that he deliberately approached him with ulterior motives.

Fortunately, Takahashi Yu was confident enough that Mebius would eventually join his ranks.

Besides, they will be able to meet again soon, so there is no need to rush.

Thinking this, Takahashi Yu didn't linger there any longer and turned to walk towards a passage leading to an internal meeting room.

On the other side, Mebius led Klein through the outer exhibition area and into the inner area.

"Doctor, that Mr. Takahashi you just met seemed to have a lot in common with you. Why didn't you chat a little longer instead of leaving?"

Standing next to Mebius, Klein asked, somewhat puzzled.

As Möbius's assistant, she was well aware of how bad her doctor's situation was in academia. Since she had finally met someone she could talk to, why not seize the opportunity to have a good conversation?

"That would be best if it were true, but now is not the time to chat."

Looking at Klein beside him, Möbius sighed and said.

As an assistant, Klein was able to complete any task assigned by Möbius exceptionally well, far surpassing the other two slackers in the lab.

However, no matter how outstanding she was, Klein was still just a young woman who had only graduated from university a few years ago, and she obviously did not fully understand the risks hidden in various interpersonal interactions.

These are extraordinary times. What if the guy they just met had some ulterior motive and deliberately approached them, trying to pull some tricks before the meeting started so that she couldn't attend the rest of the meeting?

Given Möbius's position in academia, if she were to miss the next conference, those sanctimonious scholars would not show her any leniency and would definitely divide up all the research resources that belonged to her.

In previous years, even if she didn't miss a year, the research resources she had would only continue to shrink. But this year, if she misses a year, the entire lab will probably not be able to afford even the monthly cost of instant noodles.

"So, we should be more vigilant when we meet people in the future."

After hearing Mebius's explanation, Klein immediately lowered his head in shame.

"I'm sorry, Doctor, I didn't think that much about it. I'll be more careful next time."

"I didn't mean to blame you, just keep it to yourself."

Mebius waved to Klein, indicating that she shouldn't take it too seriously.

"Alright, it's almost time. There are still twenty minutes before the meeting starts. Klein, you wait for me in the rest area over there. I'll come out after the meeting."

As an important conference involving the allocation of global research resources, virtually no one is allowed to accompany any of the participants except themselves, not even Klein, who was Möbius's assistant.

Therefore, Möbius had to attend the next meeting alone, while Klein could only wait in the nearby specially prepared rest area for the meeting to end.

"Okay, then Doctor, you need to be careful."

"Don't worry, although there are quite a few people who hate me, there aren't many who dare to directly attack me."

"After all, those guys are all very protective of their reputations."

As he spoke, a sarcastic smile appeared on Mebius's lips.

After saying goodbye to Klein, Möbius easily made his way to the door of the conference room.

After passing through the meeting room door used to verify identity information, the meeting room was already quite full of people.

However, upon seeing that the person who pushed open the door was Mebius, most of these people showed expressions of disgust on their faces.

Occasionally, Mebius could also hear whispers such as "madman" and "monster".

Mebius paid no attention to any of this and went straight to his seat.

She's become too lazy to even communicate with the people around her.

A group of people who don't even dare to take the first step in evolution, or even try, spend all their time criticizing her with baseless accusations.

In Möbius's eyes, the vast majority of these people were simply defective products destined to be eliminated on the path of human evolution.

Inside the meeting room, almost all the participants had arrived.

For such a serious meeting involving resource allocation, almost no one is late or absent.

However, when Mebius looked into the distance, he saw that the head seat in the conference room was still empty.

As the world's highest-level symposium, all seats in the conference room are strictly assigned, with people of higher status typically occupying the front seats.

For example, Mebius was seated very close to the front, among the people at the very front of the entire conference room.

At this moment, just as the meeting was about to begin, the head seat in the conference room was still empty. Several high-ranking members of the Fire Moth organization, who had been qualified to sit in the head seat in previous years, were now sitting obediently in the second seats, showing no intention of taking the front seat.

Could it be that some high-ranking or powerful figure will be attending this meeting?

......

As I pondered, time slowly slipped by, and only one or two minutes remained before the meeting was scheduled to begin.

Finally, the sound of the conference room door opening rang out again, and a figure walked in from outside the conference room.

Upon seeing this, several senior executives sitting at the front of the conference room stood up.

"Sorry, I'm a little late because of some things."

Takahashi Yu then addressed the crowd.

Because I wanted to help the shelter discover more outstanding scientists, I ended up wandering around outside for a while longer.

Fortunately, Takahashi Yu had a good sense of time and did not miss the meeting.

"It's alright, it's alright. There's still some time before the meeting starts, so you're not late, Mr. Takahashi."

Upon hearing Takahashi Yu's words, the executives immediately put on fawning smiles and then led Takahashi Yu to sit down at the head of the meeting room.

After all, Takahashi Yu's words might just be polite, but if they took them seriously, they probably wouldn't see the sun rise tomorrow.

Even if you arrive late, no one will say anything; Takahashi Yu can still attend the meeting as long as she wants.

It should be noted that all the high-ranking officials present had been psychologically influenced by Takahashi Yu. Not to mention being late, even if Takahashi Yu wanted to sleep with their spouses, no one would dare to say a word against it.

Inside the conference room, many scholars looked puzzled as they watched this scene unfold, because none of them recognized Takahashi Yu.

Initially, because of the need to control the world, Takahashi Yu's main targets were the high-ranking officials, and he did not pay much attention to scholars.

Therefore, although all the scholars who were able to participate in this conference were among the world's top scholars, this was the first time they had met Takahashi Yu in person.

However, although I don't know Takahashi Yu, since so many high-level people treat him so warmly, his identity must be quite extraordinary.

Meanwhile, when Takahashi Yu appeared again and was greeted at the head of the table by a group of executives, Mebius rested his chin on his hand with a rather intriguing expression.

"Interesting, I never expected it to be him..."

Previously, when Mebius first met Takahashi Yu, she only thought that the other party had ill intentions towards her. However, it seems that Takahashi Yu's identity is not simple.

Such a person wouldn't need to personally intervene even if they wanted to scheme against you, and the other party would certainly know her identity.

If that's the case, then the other party's motive for contacting me at the outer booth earlier becomes quite intriguing.

......

Soon, with the arrival of Takahashi Yu, all the participants in the meeting had arrived.

One of the high-ranking members of the Fire Moth, who was sitting at the very front, stood up and began to preside over the meeting.

"Ladies and gentlemen, in recent years, with the global population exceeding 10 billion, the scarcity of resources and space on Earth has become increasingly serious. In order to prevent human technology from stagnating in the future, we must allocate limited resources more rationally so that humanity can make breakthroughs in more new fields."

"Therefore, we have convened this high-level seminar, with the aim of encouraging scholars to actively express their views so as to formulate new directions for development!"

With the conclusion of this high-ranking member of the Fire Moth, the world's highest-level symposium, convened by the Mu Continent and bringing together hundreds of top scholars and representatives from various regions, and heavily guarded by thousands of armed soldiers, officially began.

To put it simply, this conference is essentially a platform for top scholars to present their research projects to higher-ups and engage in discussions with other scholars in order to secure resources for their laboratories.

In order to prevent their resources from being reduced, many scholars formed cliques and competed based on different factions. The heated debates throughout the conference were a war without gunpowder.

However, Mebius was an exception among these scholars.

"Fighter pilots need exceptional physical fitness, and most modern weapons also place certain demands on the user's physical condition. Many scientific and technological ideas are difficult to break through due to the limitations of the human body."

"All indications suggest that the human body has its limits. Such a frail body is increasingly ill-suited to the modern world. Even with exercise, drugs, or mechanical assistance, the human limit is still locked under an invisible shackle."

"Therefore, I believe that humanity today needs to evolve, because only through evolution can humanity have a better future."

Among the group of scholars, Möbius slowly began to speak, explaining his envisioned "Gene Project," which involves modifying human genes to push the human body beyond its current limits, thereby raising its potential—in other words, evolution.

However, her views were quickly refuted by other scholars.

"I think Dr. Mebius's views are somewhat alarmist."

Then a highly respected senior scholar spoke up.
