Humans are in chaos, despicable outsiders.

[What kind of people are these?! How can someone get addicted to pinching and squeezing their own body???]

"But—my dear Snow—shouldn't pretty girls dress up nicely before going out?"

Seemingly having found an irrefutable reason, Miss Pink Fairy became righteous and confident, staring straight at Snow in front of her with her big eyes, as if to say, "I'm not just talking nonsense, I have a reason."

"So this so-called 'dressing up' is a bit outrageous..."

Bypassing the still-playful pink fairy, Snow shifted his attention to Mebius, who was staring at Alicia's unrecognizable body with a furrowed brow for some reason.

"So this is Alicia's physical appearance, right... cough cough cough—"

“Dr. Mebius, I know Miss Pink Fairy is very cute and charming—but could you please stop staring at this body like a perverted old man?”

"Although everyone tacitly avoids mentioning this matter... but... the unclothed body—Ms. Mebius, your current behavior isn't much different from that of a pervert..."

Miss Alicia, whose opinions had been briefly ignored by Snow, jumped out and started a new round of pointing fingers at Ms. Mebius.

"So this is the kind of thing you like, Mebius?!"

"To gaze tenderly at the motionless Sleeping Beauty, and to pour out one's feelings and love—ah! It is indeed a very romantic depiction!"

Allie looked deeply moved. If it weren't for the barely concealed smile in her eyes, Snow would have wondered who between her and Eden was the world's most famous star and actress of the previous era.

“Miss Alicia, I think… you could be more direct—”

"Huh? Does Snow have any unique insights?"

Alicia turned her head curiously to look at the blonde girl beside her, waiting for her insightful opinion.

"This seemingly romantic setting has a more professional name in psychology... fetishism... or necrophilia."

草～

"Just like the story of Sleeping Beauty and the Prince in Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tale—that Sleeping Beauty might be an incredibly popular and beautiful girl..."

"But that prince has both necrophilia and fetishism, he must have at least one of those two mental illnesses, or maybe even both!"

The blonde girl grabbed two psychopathic hats and slammed them down on Mebius's head.

......

"ha???!"

"You vulgar bastards!! Don't assume I'm as vulgar as you!!!"

To protect his reputation, the snake lord immediately began to argue with the girl.

"Is that so? Then what are your thoughts, Ms. Serpent Lord? Is it the decline of morality, or the distortion of human nature?!"

The blonde and pink-haired girls both looked at Mebius in front of them.

"You sharp-tongued god, why wasn't you born 50,000 years earlier?!"

"what?"

"At least you can infuriate half of the idiots in the higher-ups of those Firemoths... no, more than half!"

"Killing them all will at least give me some peace and quiet—and besides, I'm not looking at Alicia's body! What's so interesting about those white fat pads?!"

"vulgar!"

Mebius offered his assessment—

"I think it's called jealousy."

Snow Apocalypse nodded.

"That's something I've never experienced before!"

" before."

Miss Snow, fully embodying the principles of friendly online communication for young people in the new century, began to demonstrate her ability to single-handedly defeat one version of Valkyrie.

"You bastard?!"

Mebius jumped up, ready to have a go at Snow.

"You're in a hurry."

"No!"

"Look, you're obviously in a hurry—Mebius, I know you're in a hurry, but don't rush, let's talk things out slowly, and then we can continue our 'hurry'—"

"you!"

"Hmph, I won't stoop to your level. You probably wouldn't understand anyway! But I'll still take pity on you and explain it to you!"

“I think Ellie’s body resources are being wasted in unnecessary places—look at the cellulite on your chest, and look at the protein on your butt, it’s a completely unnecessary waste.”

Mebius, from the perspective of a master of bioengineering, began to offer his critique of this seemingly perfect body.

"Huh? Mebius doesn't like it? Anyway, it's not finalized yet, so as beneficiaries who are simultaneously serving as both client and vendor, we can revise the draft anytime!"

Ellie tilted her head, somewhat confused, and looked at Möbius, who was about to launch into a long-winded explanation, before offering her own thoughts—

“Very good~ So, firstly, Alicia—this body can have two hearts and three lungs to provide powerful functions for the body—”

".......???"

Goodnight. Makka Pakka

Eternal Paradise: Chapter 388 A Heavy Embrace

After a brief silence, the blonde girl looked at the still somewhat bewildered Alicia, then rolled her eyes at Mebius, who was now enthusiastically venturing into his area of ​​expertise.

"Do you also need to insert a bone-strengthening organ, a muscle-strengthening organ, and then add two blood-regenerating organs to improve blood utilization efficiency?"

"Right, right, right! Hmph—I didn't realize you were so knowledgeable; once all these things mentioned earlier are in place, that's when the real main event begins."

"High-speed organ recovery, enhanced ganglia, pre-positioned stomach, and gene-detecting nerves and a third lung..."

Mebius rattled off academic terms that Alicia couldn't understand, like reciting a menu, while she continued to chatter on and on—

"There are also modifications to the pebble kidneys, sense of taste, and sweat glands—these modifications can give an ordinary person superhuman strength, and Ellie, your current body was even directly created!"

"In other words, even cases of rejection due to postnatal modification are impossible!!!"

"But the Firemoths never approved these experimental projects in the end. Tch, a bunch of pedantic fools—oh right, they're all dead now, ashen-faced as ashes, good riddance!"

"Is it possible—my great, learned Dr. Möbius...?"

Snow gestured to Alicia, who seemed to be swayed by Mebius's words, and said, "Wait a minute," before starting a verbal exchange with someone who might have some academic connection with the golden giant.

"Soldiers modified according to these processes can indeed be called superhumans—but is it possible that... such modified soldiers are at least two meters tall... and are also monster musclemen?"

[Thankfully, those ethics committee guys from the Firemoth back then didn't approve of this outrageous art style... otherwise, I'm afraid people would want to see a bunch of scantily clad giants wrestling with Honkai Beasts and Herrschers.]

"A two-meter-tall, muscular monster?"

Mebius tilted his head in confusion... then thought for a moment, and immediately felt a chill.

"First, Ms. Mebius's proposed modification plan includes numerous glands and organs that promote the third stage of growth in the adult human body, and these internal changes will also be reflected in the body's external appearance—"

"Furthermore, based on what was mentioned earlier: that ordinary people can use it, and that there was no mention of Honkai energy application at all... this is a modification based on pure biological science and medicine."

"In other words, this modification surgery will not possess the characteristics of a modification involving Honkai—"

Snow paused, then, under Möbius's curious gaze, uttered a strange theory...

"Although I don't know the principle behind it, it has a magical beautifying effect, and the more you use, the more you'll be full every month. When you become a Herrscher, you can even get a pretty dress for free."

"Although... your conclusion sounds absurd—but upon closer inspection, it seems to be true..."

Mebius's lips twitched as he looked at Ellie's unburied body on the ground, a hint of resentment creeping into his expression.

"I have to think of some way to revise it for you... Hey, you over there, god, is Aili, who was resurrected like this, considered human or... a Herrscher?"

Seemingly having grasped something important, Möbius withdrew his gaze from Alicia's unidentified body and looked back at Snow beside him.

"It's a new type—the second life of this era to reach the 'end' of its journey~"

The blonde girl introduced herself proudly, then, as if remembering something, added—

"By the way, you're the first one~ Consider this your reward for letting me know what happens when I tie your tail in a knot."

"New type? New humans? What are those...?"

Mebius's brain automatically filtered out the guy's insensitive remarks, and he tilted his head in confusion as he continued to press for answers.

"The ultimate evolutionary outcome of civilized humanity in this era, under the deduction of the gods... um... the Ascended of the Imaginary Tree?"

"You mean...ascension?"

The snake lord's pupils contracted slightly, as if he sensed something unbelievable—

"It's...that simple? The so-called ascension to godhood?"

"You don't seem quite satisfied... Do you want me to conjure up some heavenly tribulations to lend you a hand?"

Snow tilted his head, looking at Möbius in front of him...

"No thanks—I have no interest in being shocked a few times by you, you mean-spirited guy, and you've already given me enough trouble!"

The Snake Lord immediately rejected Miss Snow's suggestion of electrotherapy.

"This is—the 'end' of evolution...infinite power, infinite life...infinite—"

"The final, more subdued aspect of ultimate life is essentially just a change in status—"

"A change in status...what does that mean?"

"For you—whether it's power, life, or any other nonsense—you could say you've already entered the realm of infinity before this."

Snow, who casually grabbed Alicia, who was still able to squeeze his own body for a while, and stuffed her into the body amidst her symbolic struggle, explained to Mebius—

"But the most important thing is the change in identity—the death warriors and Honkai beasts, um... and those strange imaginary creations have become allies in a certain sense."

Isn't that amazing?

"Friendly? Wait a minute... If that's what you're saying, then we now have a much closer relationship with the Tree of Imaginary Numbers than the leaves themselves?!"

"Mébius, do you remember the last question that Mebius and I discussed?"

Having fully adapted to her body, Alicia jumped up, took a researcher's lab coat from Mebius's experiment, wrapped it around herself, interrupted the Serpent Lord's questions, and came over herself.
