I, Yuhaka, am hungry!

This led Tesla to believe that Yhaka was the highest-ranking member of the trio, and...

Tesla stared in bewilderment at the cat ears and dragon horn-like objects on Yohaka's head. What were those things? Were they decorations?

If Tesla saw Yohaka's agile tail, it would definitely be scared, right?

Tesla looked at the pork and mushroom dish in his bowl and suddenly said:

"Hmm...it would be nice if we could have some wine."

Upon hearing Tesla's words, Yuhaka, from an angle Tesla couldn't see, pulled out a bottle of Merlin Cat's special fruit wine and handed it to Tesla.

Tesla looked at the ceramic pot in front of him with a puzzled expression, seemingly not quite understanding what was going on.

Chapter 347 [Herrscher Kills??]

"what is this?"

Tesla looked puzzled as he accepted the fruit wine from Yohaka. Although Tesla didn't know what the earthenware jar Yohaka was, he shook it slightly and found that it seemed to contain some liquid. Tesla could probably guess what was in the jar.

However... why use a clay pot to store this thing? Nowadays, most people use glass bottles or tin cans to store things. Clay pots do exist, but they are hardly used in this era. Maybe people in some remote villages would use them.

Could it be that these three girls really came from that remote village?

With this question in mind, Tesla opened the cork on the earthenware jar in his hand, and a fruity aroma immediately wafted out of the jar.

At the same time, when Ji Lin, who was sitting next to Yuhaka, smelled the fruity aroma, he shuddered as if he had thought of something bad.

Tesla, smelling the fruity aroma emanating from the ceramic jar in his hand, looked surprised and said:

"It smells so good! What is this?"

Upon hearing Tesla's question, Youhaka also gave his own answer:

"Melu Cat's Special Fruit Wine, it's really delicious!"

Upon hearing Yuhaka's words, Tesla paused for a moment before replying:

"Fruit wine? This is the first time I've ever seen this before..."

Although Tesla had heard of fruit wine, he was not a heavy drinker and had never tasted it.

Of course, although Tesla has drunk wine, there is a big difference between wine and Yohaca fruit wine.

Xilin, who was standing nearby, also smelled the aroma of the fruit wine. She was obviously curious about the fruit wine, so she asked Yuhaka for a bottle to try.

Upon hearing Xilin's words, Yuhaka also took out a bottle and gave it to Xilin, then took out a bottle and gave it to Jilin who was standing next to him. Jilin's mouth twitched as she looked at the fruit wine that Yuhaka handed over.

After what happened when she drank with Yuhaka last time, Ji Lin seemed a bit resistant to the fruit wine made by Meru Cat, even though she was also craving the taste of that fruit wine.

Tesla had nothing to say about Yuhaka and the others drinking fruit wine. Fruit wine has a much lower alcohol content, so it shouldn't be a big problem for Yuhaka and the others to drink some.

Tesla, savoring the sweet aroma of the fruit wine offered by Yuhaka, asked Yuhaka and the others:

"Why are you three children in such a desolate place? Where are the adults?"

Hearing Tesla's words, Ji Lin, who was standing to the side, blinked at Tesla and said:

"Huh? Us? We didn't come with the adults."

Upon hearing Ji Lin's words, Tesla looked at Yuhaka and the others with a surprised expression. She hadn't expected that Yuhaka and the others would not even try to hide it and would directly say that the three of them had come to this desolate place alone.

Are they all idiots? They didn't even say anything to cover it up?

Even if they said their parents had left, Tesla might believe it.

After hearing Yuhaka and the others' answers, Tesla adjusted his red-rimmed glasses and said:

"Is that so?"

Then, Tesla, having thought of something else, asked Yohaka and the others:

"Hey, what are you three doing here? Are you having a picnic or camping or something?"

Upon hearing Tesla's question, Yuhaka, who was eating squid tentacles nearby, raised her little hand and said:

"Youyou is hunting!"

"Huh? Hunting??"

Upon hearing Yuhaka's words, Tesla looked surprised and puzzled. Clearly, Tesla didn't quite believe Yuhaka's words. After all, what kind of prey could Yuhaka and her two little girls hunt?

However, Tesla looked at the strange hunting bow placed to the side and thought that Yuhaka and the others might be hunting something, but as for what they were hunting... Tesla guessed that they might be hunting small animals like rabbits?

What kind of animal are you hunting?

Driven by curiosity, Tesla, sipping his sweet fruit wine, asked Yohaka and the others this question. Yohaka and the others shook their heads and replied:

"do not know."

"Pfft, cough cough! Huh?? You don't know?!"

Upon hearing Yuhaka and the others' answer, Tesla almost spat out the fruit wine in her mouth. She hadn't expected to hear such a response from Yuhaka and the others, which left Tesla a little bewildered.

Ji Lin handed a handkerchief to Tesla and said:

"Well, at the moment we don't know what our hunting target is..."

Taking the handkerchief Ji Lin handed him, Tesla wiped his mouth and looked at Yuhaka and the others with a somewhat speechless expression, saying:

"Don't know? You don't even know what you're hunting, yet you come looking for an animal you don't recognize? That's a bit ridiculous."

Yes, just like Tesla said, what Yohaka and the others said was really hard to believe. Hunting prey they didn't know about sounded too suspicious. But that's precisely why Tesla couldn't understand Yohaka and the others' thought process at all. What were they thinking?

Ji Lin and the others didn't notice Tesla's conflicted expression. Standing next to Yuhaka, Ji Lin looked at her cheap master and said:

"By the way, Master Youyou, did the gods say what we should hunt?"

Upon hearing Ji Lin's question, Yuhaka shook his head in confusion, indicating that he did not know, and said:

"Youyou doesn't know..."

Tesla, who overheard the conversation between Yuhaka and Jilin, was also taken aback. "God" was a word that Tesla was not unfamiliar with at all, but as a scientist, Tesla had long since stopped believing in such superstitious beings as gods.

However, one thing made Tesla suspect that Yhaka and the others might have encountered scammers or imposters claiming to be gods, since mysterious phenomena in this world are basically caused by Honkai... Wait a minute!!

Tesla suddenly realized that one of the three little girls in front of him might be the Second Herrscher!

Thinking about it this way, Tesla suddenly felt a cold sweat run down his back. Was he actually eating hotpot with a Herrscher? (You're right, Tesla.)

So, who is the second Herrscher among these three?

Chapter 348 [Who is the Herrscher? (Please Subscribe)]

Inside the tent at the hunter's camp, Tesla and Yuhaka were eating hot pot and drinking fruit wine together. Although Tesla appeared calm as she drank the wine, she was actually filled with tension and excitement inside.

After all, among the three people in front of her, there was a possibility that the Second Herrscher might have escaped from the Babylon Laboratory. Thinking about it that way, Tesla felt that this was a possibility.

However, Tesla doesn't know who the Second Herrscher is.

Tesla glanced at the three of them discreetly, internally analyzing who among them, Yhaka and the others, was most likely to be the Second Herrscher.

Tesla glanced at Xilin, who was eating hot pot. Xilin was eating with a focused expression, looking like a paramecium, but she was picking up food quickly and stuffing her cheeks full, just like a pufferfish.

This made Tesla kick the idea that the purple-haired loli was the Second Herrscher out of his head.

How could such a seemingly idiotic little girl possibly be the Second Herrscher...?

Tesla then turned to Ji Lin, who was sitting in the middle. Tesla thought Ji Lin was somewhat of a possibility, but because Ji Lin was from China, Tesla thought it was unlikely that Ji Lin was the Second Herrscher.

After all... Tesla thought it was impossible for that laboratory called Babylon to hold any experimental subjects from China, right?

Even if they exist, they should be with the Tianming Shenzhou branch, right?

Tesla then realized that his idea was unreliable, since it would be easy for Destiny to get experimental subjects from the Chinese.

However, Tesla intuitively felt that among the three little girls, Ji Lin was the least likely to be the Second Herrscher.

As for Yhaka...

Hmm... Tesla thinks Ehaka is the most likely suspect to be the Second Herrscher, after all...

Tesla saw the ears on Yohaka's head twitch a few times, and Tesla also saw the large tail swaying behind Yohaka.

If Tesla previously thought that the cat ears and horn-like objects on Yohaka's head were ornaments, then now...

Tesla stared at the large tail swaying behind Yohaka and didn't think it was any kind of ornament. It was just too suspicious!

However, Tesla is not carrying a Honkai energy detector. The only device that could detect Honkai energy broke when he was suddenly thrown into the air.

Why haven't Chicken Hair and the others come looking for me yet?!

Could it be that the girls with the messy hair are lost?!

.................................................

On the snowy plains of Siberia, Tesla, along with Einstein and the man she called "the leader," sat on a snowmobile searching for Tesla's trail. Wearing goggles, Einstein looked at the monitoring device in his hand with a worried expression and said:

"That's strange. This is almost Dr. Tesla's maximum walking range. Why haven't we detected any life signals from Dr. Tesla yet?"

Upon hearing Einstein's words, the man driving the snowmobile asked Einstein a question:

"Could it be because Dr. Tesla fell from a more distant location?"

Upon hearing the man's words, Einstein nodded and said:

"Very likely, huh? Walter, you'd better stop the car right now!"

Upon hearing Einstein call his name, Walter immediately stopped his snowmobile and turned to look at Einstein with a tense expression, saying:

"What's wrong?! Ai Yin?!"

Einstein frowned as he looked at the Honkai energy detection values ​​and the life detection device on his hand and said:

"At a distance of 1860 meters to the northeast, we detected Honkai energy levels far exceeding those of an Emperor-class Honkai Beast, along with signals from three life forms, one of which was Tesla's life signal!"

Upon hearing Einstein's words, Walter's pupils contracted, and he immediately said to Einstein:

"Hold on tight, Ai-Yin!"

Upon hearing Walter's words, Einstein immediately hugged Walter's waist. Walter then conjured a special frame and armor on the snowmobile beneath him, and several jet-like objects appeared on the back of the snowmobile. With a roar of the engines, Walter drove the evolved snowmobile toward Tesla.

.................................................

Meanwhile, on the other hand, Yuhaka and her group, along with Tesla...

After Tesla and Yuhaka finished their hot pot meal, Tesla patted his stomach and said:

"Hmm, I'm a little too full..."
