Sorry, you scumbag woman, you can do whatever you want.

"What game?" Mebius asked with a smile, playing along perfectly with Alicia, who gave her an approving look.

"Truth or Dare." She clapped her hands lightly. "Of course, the rules of the game are all decided by drawing cards."

She took out the cards she had prepared beforehand.

"There are thirty cards here, one of which is a king symbolizing power. The referee will distribute them to everyone. Whoever is the king has the right to ask questions to any participant in the game. If someone refuses... they will be punished."

"For example, punishments such as eating chili potato chips, bitter melon buns, or pickled cucumber-flavored gummies."

"..." Möbius pretended to ponder, then smiled at Alicia, "Okay, I agree."

“Then I’ll join in too.” Eden naturally wouldn’t refuse. She and Alicia were friends, so she was naturally willing to cooperate with Alicia’s actions.

The others present naturally wouldn't refuse, nor was there any need to refuse.

“Then we’ll leave the dealing to Aponia.” Alicia handed the cards to a surprised Aponia, explaining with a bright smile, “No one can lie to you, right?”

“…” Aponia did not answer, her gaze fixed on Mebius. Her ability truly made it impossible for anyone to lie in front of her.

However, this method is ineffective against Mebius.

“Don’t worry, most people here have ways to resist Aponia’s abilities,” Möbius explained with a light laugh. “However, they won’t lie about it. After all, there’s a small punishment to choose from, isn’t there?”

“Alright, then let me deal the cards.” With a slight nod, Aponia ultimately did not refuse.

Then, everyone sat down at the round table.

"Please, don't ask questions that might make people feel uncomfortable," Aponia said softly, looking at everyone.

Then, they played cards one by one.

“It seems like I’m the king.” Padofilis held up the card representing the king, her pretty face showing a hint of embarrassment.

Isn't this incredibly lucky?

"Then Paddo, go ahead and ask your question." Alicia smiled and gave Paddophilis an encouraging look, signaling her to ask boldly.

Padofilis twitched his lips in response. Everyone present was either a big shot or a super big shot.

How could an ordinary person like her dare to ask a question?

I thought about it.

"Boss, can I take three days off?" she asked softly, looking at Möbius. "I want to go back to Twilight Street for a while."

“Okay.” Mebius agreed readily; she hadn’t really expected Padophiles to work anyway.

Keeping it around is for display purposes.

"Thank you, boss!" Patofilis exclaimed excitedly, feeling like she had finally found the way to play Truth or Dare.

So the game went on for several rounds.

Each time, Padophilia received the King's Card, and she also took the opportunity to make some trivial requests of Mebius, Alicia, Velvi, and others.

However, this did not make Padophilia happy. She wiped the sweat from her forehead and silently prayed that she would not be the one to get the King's Card again.

Otherwise, she was worried that she would be fired by Mebius tomorrow because her left foot stepped into the World Serpent first.

Alternatively, they could be sent to work in remote areas.

Fortunately, this time she didn't get the King's card; instead, Eden got the King's card.

“I don’t think I want anything.” Eden looked slightly troubled, then his gaze fell on Möbius.

She had many questions about Möbius, but considering that Padolphilis had asked Möbius two or three times, she hesitated.

It would be better to ask someone else.

"Hua, you seem to know me very well?" she asked Hua, who had been quiet and had a faint presence.

Upon hearing this, Fu Hua fell into a brief silence, unsure how to respond. After a moment's hesitation, she made her decision.

"I choose... punishment."

"Wait a minute, I'll go get the punishment snacks." Alicia hurriedly left, carrying a large basket of snacks and placing it on the table.

"Choose one, Hua."

"..." Fu Hua remained silent, asking another personality deep within her heart, trying to let her past self make the choice.

However, Hua… shut down her inner communication.

Helpless, she could only reluctantly choose the punishment snacks, among all sorts of inhumanly delicious treats.

Choose a concentrated bitter melon juice that looks healthy.

Unscrew the cap and, under everyone's watchful eyes, Fu Hua drank the entire bottle without changing his expression.

Fifty thousand years has long since given her a level of endurance that far exceeds the limits of human imagination.

I'd dare to drink anything, not just bitter melon juice, but lava...

However, deep in her heart, the "Hua" of the past suffered, and she covered her face, her expression grim.

At that time, she was just an ordinary girl, and drinking concentrated bitter melon juice must have been quite unpleasant for her.

Not rolling around on the ground was already a sign of her modesty.

Chapter 184

Snake will stay tonight.

"I'm sorry, you'll find out the answer sooner or later," Fu Hua explained to everyone. "It's too surprising to say it now."

"It can't be someone who's coming back from the future, can it?" Alicia asked jokingly, but Fu Hua turned her head slightly away.

That's right, she is the one who will return from the future.

"Let's begin the next round," Mebius said with a light laugh, interrupting everyone's speculations, even though many of them had already guessed the truth.

Aponia was also very willing to cooperate. With her ability to foresee the future, she was more aware of the abnormalities of Mebius and Hua than the others.

She took back the cards and distributed them to everyone again.

The person who obtained the King's Card this time was... Kosmo. His face was stiff as he felt the gazes directed at him.

I couldn't help but feel that the cards on my fingers were getting a little hot.

Everyone present was a formidable individual, and it was perfectly normal for him, an ordinary person, to lack confidence.

"Dr. Möbius, can I really become a hero?" he asked Möbius, voicing his true thoughts.

In the eyes of people of this era, Möbius was a savior, a great man who guided human civilization forward.

The more fanatical people even regarded Mebius as a god.

“No,” Mebius replied immediately, causing Kosmo’s expression to stiffen. As expected, he did not possess the qualities to become a hero.

The atmosphere at the scene became somewhat awkward.

“Young man, you have the qualities to become a hero.” Mebius shook his head slightly. “However, there is no need for heroes now. The crisis of collapse has been resolved by me and Velvey.”

She chuckled.

"From now on, Herrschers will no longer be born, and Honkai Beasts that harm humanity will no longer be born without reason."

"In other words, you've lost the environment to become a hero."

"..." Kosmo stared wide-eyed at the smiling Möbius, asking incredulously, "Then why didn't you announce it?"

“Society is currently undergoing a period of change. The existence of external enemies is what unites people and facilitates a smooth transition in this changing society,” Möbius explained. “Young man, I am eager to announce the good news of defeating the collapse, but that will have to wait until the changing society has stabilized.”

"I see." Kosmo nodded, somewhat bewildered, but he felt that what Möbius said made some sense.

However, Kevin noticed something was wrong.

"Doctor, if heroes are no longer needed, why do you still need Kosmo and become a fusion warrior?"

“Unless you draw the King card,” Möbius said with a smile, “I refuse to answer.”

Kevin, "..."

That way, even if he draws a card, the answers he can ask will be limited.

Moreover, judging from Dr. Möbius's expression, it was not a difficult question to answer.

Just to make him waste a chance to use the King card.

"Oh dear, it seems you all enjoy asking Mebius questions," Alicia chuckled. "But please don't neglect others."

“After all, everyone is more familiar with Mebius.” Eden smiled elegantly, while most of the heroes present maintained a level of unfamiliarity with each other.

For them, it was better to ask Mebius, a familiar person, than to ask a stranger.

Moreover, given Möbius's ability and status, he certainly has the potential to provide the answer that most people are hoping for.

At the very least, they all wanted to take the opportunity to ask Mebius the questions.

“Yes, yes, that’s it.” Padofelis nodded vigorously. She often asked Boss Mebius and Sister Velvi questions, mainly because she was familiar with them and didn’t have to worry about them asking troublesome questions.

“Then let’s add a restriction,” Alicia suggested with a smile. “Even the king can only ask one question to one person. Even if he draws the question again, he cannot continue to question the person in question.”

“Okay.” Su Weixiao agreed, and the others naturally did not refuse, tacitly adding this new rule.
