On how PhDs become human evil

Froststar didn't know when she fell in love with Bai Jie. She just found herself unable to look away from Bai Jie's figure as he gave orders on the battlefield. Sometimes, Froststar would even fantasize that if he were in charge of her, she would give everything to bring him victory.

"Who knows? I just fell for him without even realizing it," Frostnova said casually to Talulah. "More importantly, are you sure W's method will work? Winning someone over through their stomach... how do you do that?"

"It should mean exactly what it says: grab his stomach. But the stomach is inside his belly. Are we going to cut him open?"

"No, I think you've definitely misunderstood—Talulah, they're planning to run away!"

Seeing that the Moon Throne beside her had already taken off, Frostnova hurriedly reminded her.

With a cold snort, Talulah said, "Full speed ahead of the Fafnir! Follow closely behind the Moon Throne!"

P.S.: Update

P.S.: I typed this while listening to "Unreachable Love," it took about two hours. I deleted the part about Frostnova three or four times before it finally turned out like this. Please bear with me if you think it's not good.

P.S.: I really don't know where to begin complaining about Honkai Impact 3's summer event storyline; there are just too many things to criticize.

Section 89, Chapter 24: These days, who isn't a god?

After dealing with Dan Masamune's matter, Bai Jie did not linger. Leaving Dan Masamune kneeling on the ground in a state of collapse, Bai Jie went directly to the location of Hosho Emu and the other three.

Upon seeing Bai Jie arrive, Yong Meng immediately said, "Senior, thank you so much for your help this time!"

“Although I helped develop the cartridge, the person you should thank is not me, but Li Dou.” Bai Jie looked at the Invincible Player cartridge in Yong Meng’s hand. “That guy is really a genius, I admit it. Make good use of that cartridge.”

"Huh?" Emu was stunned. "But senpai, I can no longer transform."

Emu was able to transform because of Parad's existence, but now that Parad has been destroyed and Emu's gaming addiction has been cured, he has lost the ability to transform.

"Has Parad really been destroyed?" Bai Jie asked rhetorically. "Well, let's put that aside for now. All the bugsters in the Kamen Rider Chronicles have been defeated, right?"

"Yes, all the game cartridges are here."

Kagami Hiiro and Hanaichi Taiga each took out five game cartridges. Just then, the cartridges in their hands suddenly lit up and floated into the air on their own, slowly rising like a halo.

Boom!

Several bolts of lightning suddenly struck from the sky, plunging the sky into darkness. Endless black clouds swirled and gathered above everyone's heads like a vortex, and a huge promotional image for Kamen Rider Chronicles appeared in the sky.

An inexplicable sense of oppression spread under the sky, and everyone's heart suddenly sank, as if a huge stone was pressing down on it, making it difficult to even breathe.

"finally..."

"It's coming..."

“Gemdeus!”

In the enormous screen of light in the sky, black lightning surged outwards like water leaking from a broken pipe, while a violent wind raged across the heavens and earth, almost blowing the stone bricks off the ground.

In the Kamen Rider Chronicles screen, a monster's face gradually emerged, as if a demon bound in the abyss had finally broken free of its seal and climbed up from the depths of hell step by step.

"GGGGGGAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!"

A piercing roar swept across the sky, the terrifying sound waves even causing a substantial impact and triggering a storm of typhoon strength! The plaza where Hojo Emu and the others were located was instantly reduced to ruins!

"Eden's Star!"

The moment Gemdeus appeared, Bai Jie simulated the Star of Eden, barely managing to erect a gravity barrier to protect everyone inside before the storm arrived.

Looking at Gemdeus flying in the sky, Emu Hojo exclaimed in shock: "Is that Gemdeus, the god of games?"

"It destroyed the plaza in an instant, what destructive power!"

"Is that really a monster that players can defeat?"

After witnessing Gemdeus with their own eyes, the confidence that Hojo Emu, Kagami Hiiro, and Hanaya Taiga had built up until now was finally shattered; that thing had undoubtedly surpassed their understanding.

"Hahahaha! As expected of the final boss I designed!" Unlike the dejected Hosho Emu and others, Dan Kuroto, who was trapped in the virus incubator, burst into wild laughter.

Bai Jie gave him a light tap, then stood up and said, "Alright, alright, that's enough of your depressing time. You guys just finished a big battle and haven't recovered yet. Leave the rest to us seniors."

"Right, Kouta?"

The moment Bai Jie's voice fell, a giant zipper suddenly appeared in the sky, and something fell out of it—it looked like... a person!

"Boom--!"

As if struck hard, Gemdeus was suddenly sent flying backward, crashing into the ground in the distance like a meteorite. At that moment, the person who had fallen out of the zipper landed in front of everyone.

It was a blond man wearing full silver armor, with a red right eye and a pure white cloak. Just standing there, he made people want to kneel and worship. He was awe-inspiring without even being angry.

"It's been a long time, Doctor."

“I haven’t seen you since you went to Helheim, Kouta.” Bai Jie patted the man on the shoulder. “Let me introduce you. This guy is Kouta Kazuha, Kamen Rider Gaim, a god.”

god?

Everyone's gaze was drawn to the virus incubator in Bai Jie's hand, inside which was a god.

"Kouta-senpai, Doctor, you've both arrived." A flurry of white feathers flew by, and a brown-haired boy dressed in temple robes appeared.

"Senior!?" Yongmeng exclaimed in surprise, "You're here too?"

"Because I heard something big is about to happen, we really can't just sit idly by. Is it just the few of us, Doctor?"

Nodding, Bai Jie said, "Shinnosuke's wife is in postpartum confinement, so I'm embarrassed to bother him. Haruto is probably wandering around somewhere. Eiji is abroad and can't fly over. Shotaro and Philip went grocery shopping. Kisaragi is still in class."

"I can understand the first few, but aren't the last three a bit too casual?" Kouta Kazuha seemed to have a few black lines drawn on his forehead. He thought Shotaro and the others had something important to do, but it turned out to be just family matters!

“But Ruyue really can’t come. He’s been sent to the United States for teacher training. Although he can fly over, he’s probably still sleeping there. Let’s not disturb him,” Bai Jie said. “Besides, the three of us are enough, right?”

Upon hearing this, Kouta Kazuha and Takeru Tenkuji smiled slightly: "That's right, just a god."

Standing side by side, the three of them took out their transformation items and shouted in unison, "Henshin!!!"

Section 90, 25. Why save your ultimate move for the New Year?

"Impossible! Why is the Cronus cartridge with you?!" Dan Kuroto exclaimed in shock as he saw Bai Jie transform into Cronus inside the virus incubator.

After shaking hands and feeling his own strength, Bai Jie laughed and said, "I snatched it from your dad, and it feels pretty good."

"You're still the same as ever, always stealing other people's things to use," Kouta Kazuha said with a helpless smile. "Can't you make your own transformation device? What happened to your divine talent?"

"Who knows what materials your belts are made of? The player driver is too big and makes me uncomfortable. This is about right." Bai Jie said as he cast a spell, his hands glowing with a ghostly blue light. A raging celestial fire, along with the merging of his twin pistols, shot straight into the sky!

"Then... let's go!"

His entire body erupted with terrifying heavenly fire, converting all of this energy into propulsion. Bai Jie's speed soared from zero to nearly the first cosmic velocity in one breath. Under such incredible speed, the kinetic energy on the Heavenly Fire Judgment accumulated to an unbelievable level!

Boom! ...

The sword of the Heavenly Fire Judgment cut into Gemdeus's body in a way that was more like melting than slashing. Gemdeus's highest level of defense was as fragile as paper in front of the Heavenly Fire Judgment!

"It's not about cutting it off, it's about burning it off! I've got a great idea! It feels like it could be made into a strategic weapon!"

"Hey! Doctor, don't rush ahead alone!"

Tenkuuji-zun, who had somehow flown into the sky, raised his eye gun and military sword and forcefully pulled on the belt at his waist.

[A life-changing experience! Kanashimi Break!]

A burst of azure energy erupted from the saber. Taking advantage of the momentum of his fall, Tenkuji Takeru gathered all his strength into one point, and the brilliant slash struck Gemdeus's body head-on!

"Ughhhh! You bastard, you just slammed your ultimate attack right in the face right from the start!"

"Isn't this all learned from you, Doctor?" Kouta ran to Bai Jie's side, already holding the large orange DJ gun.

Upon seeing the gun, Bai Jie was immediately taken aback: "Does that mean you're coming too?"

"What else?" Kouta said as he inserted the Musou Saber into the DJ Gun and then attached the Kachikame Lockseed.

[One? Ten? Hundred? Thousand? Trillion? Trillion? Countless!]

"Drink it! Aaaaaaaah!"

Orange flames erupted from the DJ gun, and Kouta plunged the blade into Gemdeus's body, then sprinted along its body at lightning speed, cutting a gash across Gemdeus's entire body!

And naturally, Bai Jie was affected as well.

"laugh----------!!!"

Landing back on the ground, his legs left two long furrows in the earth. Bai Jie roared angrily, "You two! Is this how you come up and unleash your ultimate moves right away?!"

"Throw it away if you have a big one, what are you going to do with it during the New Year? -- That's what you taught us!"

"Doctor, didn't you also cause a volcanic eruption right from the start? We're even."

While pressing and rubbing Gemdeus, Kota and Mikoto laughed as the Grape Dragon Cannon, Banana Spear, and Eye Gun Saber slashed across Gemdeus's body, leaving it almost covered in cuts.

"boom--!"

Bai Jie deflected a light projectile flying towards him back into Gemdeus's face with a swing of his sword, and said with a smirk, "You all said it was impolite to do this back then, but now you're quite decisive in using it. What's that saying again? It's actually quite delicious!"
