Collapse, Kaslana's Way of Survival

"It's okay. I'm very generous."

Kainuo smiled and waved his hand, shamelessly showing that he didn't care.

"And the fact that you can't accept it for a moment is the greatest compliment to me."

What could be more exciting than seeing your opponent completely devastated by your defeat?

Alicia pouted in dissatisfaction. "Hey, Kainuo, girls won't be happy with you if you talk like that, okay? Being gentle is a must to win a girl's heart!"

"I'm not afraid. I have a girlfriend," Kainuo shrugged, lashing out at a certain older single woman. "Plus, I have two lovely sisters, an approachable aunt, and many close classmates. My life is pretty happy."

Without giving Alicia a chance to continue interrupting, Kaino pointed at her abdomen and added.

"And when I attacked you, I specifically targeted the part of your body where you were naked. Afterwards, I immediately healed your wound. I thought I was being gentle enough."

You have to know that the last time he used star power to deal with a woman named Hu, not only her clothes were gone, but now there was nothing left.

"...Life is wonderful."

Alicia seemed to recall something, and her expression became complicated and lonely for a moment, but she quickly returned to her usual self and nodded cheerfully.

"Whether your actions just now were gentle or not remains to be seen, but there is no doubt that you defeated me squarely on the battlefield. I will tell you the information regarding Dr. Mebius of the Elysian Fields."

Kainuo rubbed his hands excitedly and looked at Alicia with an expression full of anticipation.

Isn't that what he fought for?

"Ahem, listen carefully!" Alicia cleared her throat and turned serious. "First of all..."

"I don't actually know exactly how many tricks Dr. Mobius has up his sleeve."

Kainuo:?

"what?"

"Don't look at me like that, there's nothing strange about this, right?"

Kaino had no idea what Alicia was thinking as she was stared at with a look that said, "Are you kidding me?" But at least there was no embarrassment on her face. Instead, she spoke as if it was a matter of course.

"Unlike Velvet, who loves to show off her new weapon against Kevin, no one knows what Mobius does besides maintaining the Paradise of the Past. I'm someone who often sneaks into her lab, but unfortunately, her vigilance was greatly increased during the Fire Moth incident, so I didn't find much."

"Fortunately, those two missing memories seem to have had a significant impact on Mebius, and she's been devoting most of her time to them. So, the few things I discovered should be her rare research results, right?"

"I always feel like the amount of information in those two sentences just now is a bit overwhelming..." Kainuo said, covering his face. "So, what's the only thing you discovered?"

"The Herr of Corrosion."

For once, Ailishiya didn't keep anyone in suspense and read out a few words with a serious expression.

Kaino couldn't help but jump, and secretly peeked into the erosion core. He breathed a sigh of relief when he found that Feiyumaru and Yaesakura were having fun. He quickly closed the core's perception of the outside world and looked at Alicia.

"The younger sister of the former civilization Ying Jieying?"

"Hey, Kaino, you know?"

Alicia was stunned for a moment, subconsciously looked around, and breathed a sigh of relief when she found that there was no cherry-haired figure around.

"Ying doesn't know about this yet, Kainuo, please don't talk nonsense in the future. But speaking of which, did Kevin tell you this?"

"It's really unexpected that he would even tell you this... No, if it were him, maybe it was expected."

"Okay, I won't say it anymore."

Kaino nodded in understanding and turned the topic back to Mebius.

"So, what did Dr. Mobius finally come up with? What results did she achieve? Did she realize the power of the Herrscher of Corrosion?"

Kainuo's concerns are not unfounded.

If it were anyone else, it would be fine, but the stigmata he bore were the product of Mebius's experiments. While it was unclear why these stigmata hadn't become more widespread and why he inherited them after 55,000 years, it was an undeniable fact that they held the power of the Herrscher of the Six Paths.

This was enough to prove that Mebius's understanding of the Herrscher's power was unparalleled among previous civilizations. Even if he had lost his memory of the stigmata, who knew if he would ever discover it again after fifty-five thousand years of research.

"Ah, you can rest assured about this." Alicia saw Kainuo's worry and shook her head.

"Without the necessary conditions, it's impossible for Mebius to regain her full power."

"Necessary conditions?" Kainuo raised an eyebrow. "And...full authority?"

"Yes, complete power." Alicia nodded. "Although incomplete, Mebius's research on the Herrscher of Corrosion is certainly not without results. She can achieve simpler and less complex abilities like erasure and restoration."

Kainuo nodded in understanding.

"It's fine if it's not completely done... so what are those so-called necessary conditions?"

"Ah this..."

Alicia blinked, turned her head as if she hadn't heard Kayno's question, and pointed at the portal.

"Come to think of it, Mebius's laboratory isn't too far from here, and I happen to have the key there. Let's go now without further ado!"

After saying that, without giving Kayno a chance to ask any more questions, Alicia jumped quickly across the portal.

Seeing that the other party clearly looked like he knew something but just wouldn't tell it, Kainuo sighed and followed Alicia into the portal.

Whatever the truth was, there was no need to question Alicia now. Once the real Mobius appeared, everything would be revealed.

Chapter 244 Do I look like a fool?

On the land where black and green are intertwined, a short figure sat on a suspension device specially made by Wei Erwei. With a frown on his face, he pointed impatiently at the several light screens in front of him at an extremely fast speed.

Apparently, she was sent directly back to her paradise, Mebius, by Velvet's magic.

After a while, Mebius's impatience, having still not found the results she wanted on the light screen, reached its peak. She suddenly flicked her hand, shutting off all the light screens, and slammed her fist heavily on the suspension device below her.

But this still didn't seem to satisfy her, so she lifted her bare feet from under her black skirt, stared at the air beside her, and kicked them hard a few times as if there was someone there.

"Damn it, Vivi, what on earth did she do to Paradise? All the surveillance equipment has been interfered with and cannot be used. Doesn't this mean that we've lost track of Keno?!" Mebius gritted his teeth.

She was incredibly angry now.

Even after fifty-five thousand years of research, she still hadn't figured out what Mebius, the man outside the Elysian Land, had done to her memory. Apart from limited documentation and information she'd gathered from a few insiders, she knew nothing.

Now that the holder of the stigma has entered the paradise, the clues related to that incident suddenly appear in front of her. God knows how happy she is?

As a result, she had just arrived at the other party's location, but was sent back by a hat from Weiwei. After finally breaking free from the other party's restraints and returning to the area, she found that the place, including its owner Eden, was empty.

Filled with rage and with nowhere to vent, she returned to check the surveillance cameras. However, the surveillance equipment that had been functioning perfectly when she checked yesterday was now completely malfunctioning, and the images displayed had all turned into a brown-gray magic hat.

There is no longer any doubt as to who did it.

But not only could she not find someone to take revenge on, she also had to work overtime the next day to repair the other person's damaged paradise!

[Test subject: Mobius. Warning: Current blood pressure: 148/102 mmHg. It is recommended to maintain a stable mood and take blood pressure medication promptly.]

The sudden sound of the suspension device beneath her caused Mebius's breathing to pause. After a second, she smashed it again.

"Shut up!"

The suspension device enters silent mode.

Mebius took two deep breaths and slowly calmed down.

As an experimentalist who has been targeted for many years in the Fire Moth, she is relatively good at regulating her mood.

Suddenly, the portal to the area she was in vibrated, and Mebius clearly sensed someone coming in. Without thinking, she called out the name of the only person who had the right to enter without permission and who often came here.

"Alicea, why are you coming to me at this time?"

Mebius looked over with an impatient look on his face.

"I'm telling you in advance, if you come here to laugh at me—"

The sound seemed to get stuck in his throat, and Mebius' eyes suddenly widened.

"Oh, there's a new guest in Paradise, so I brought him here to introduce him to you, Mebius."

Alicia didn't care at all that Kayno was leading behind her, and greeted Mebius openly.

The scene was speechless for a moment.

Kaino looked at the small-sized Mebius in front of him with some curiosity.

The person in the memory fragments was still the size of an adult, perhaps even in his thirties. He had only had a quick glance at the smaller person before, and this was the first time he had the opportunity to take a close look at him.

The girl with long green wavy hair sat upright on the floating platform, stretching her waist. A headband that was exactly the same as the so-called consciousness projection device that Alicia had taken out was firmly worn on her head.

The black and green body-hugging skirt perfectly sets off the other person's snake-like lower body. The two white pieces of cloth cover the joints and set off the black skirt at the same time, perfectly showing the girl's temptation that does not match her appearance.

The only flaw was that the girl's pale purple snake eyes staring at him were a bit scary, which made Kainuo couldn't help but suspect that she wanted to catch him and dissect him directly - why didn't she wear shoes?

"Hey, isn't this the big brother I just met at Sister Eden's place?" A pretentious voice suddenly broke the silent atmosphere.

Mebius suppressed her ruthless expression, covering her mouth with one hand and placing her other hand across her chest in a clenched fist, looking distressed. She looked at Kaynor and the other with a completely pitiful expression.

"I just heard Sister Phyllis's voice and out of curiosity went to take a look. Who knew the sky would suddenly turn dark, and I ended up in this pitch-black place. Woo woo~"

Kainuo twitched his lips, not knowing what to say for a moment.

He turned to look at Alicia, and Yu Duchen urged them to go into a chat room.

"Does she take us for blindness or for fools?"

Alicia was startled by the Yuduchen that Kainuo suddenly took out, but she was soon relieved.

Possessing the power of the Ruler of Reason, it is not surprising that he can easily take out any divine key.

She hesitated for a moment, then replied to Kainuo, "Is it possible that this isn't my fault, and she just underestimated you?"

Kaino fell silent for a moment, then sighed and waved in the direction of Mebius.

The nameless gust of wind wrinkled up, and the colorless and odorless unknown potion that Mebius had scattered in his hands while being pretentious and would be released into the air was blown away by the wind.

"...Tsk."

Mebius smacked his lips in dissatisfaction as his preemptive move was discovered, but he looked at Kaino—or more precisely, at the stigma under Kaino's clothes—with an even more covetous look.

Her movements were extremely stealthy, and her disguise was conspicuous enough that even some Heroic Heroes might not be able to detect her tactics. However, this was enough to prove that the stigmata's power boost was enough to surpass many Heroic Heroes.

Then the records in the data should not be false.

Licking his lips subconsciously, Mebius no longer concealed himself, and the smile on his face became more and more presumptuous.

"Heh, so you captured her, Alicia, and wanted to give her to me?" Mebius turned his gaze towards Alicia, his eyes flickering. "Or did you bring her here to show off to me?"

"Oh, what are you talking about, Mebius?! Do I look like that kind of bad girl?"

Alicia put her hands on her hips and looked at Mebius with an indignant look on her face.

"hehe."

"Hey, Mobius, what do you mean by laughing like that?" Alicia complained. "I came all the way here to give you a gift!"

Mebius looked extremely disdainful.

"A gift? What gift can you give me? The silver coins you got from Padu two for one? Or the crystal flowers that I can barely fit in here?"

"Of course, if you really want to give him to me, I will definitely accept it...but is that possible?"

"How can we know if we don't try? I'd like to say that, but it's impossible."

Alicia shook her head helplessly, then suddenly smiled, took out the consciousness receiving device from behind her, and held it up high.

"But I brought you another gift, clang-clang!"

"A wish-fulfilling device specially crafted by Alicia! Just wear it on your head and absorb the power coming from it, and you can become the king of the new world! How about it, isn't it amazing!?"

Kaino turned his head and stared at Alicia as if he had seen a ghost.

Mebius exhaled forcefully.

"Alicea," Mebius raised his head and said slowly, "Do I look like a fool?"

Chapter 245 It is more effective to take direct action

"Hey, don't you like it, Mebius?"

Although she was yelled at, Alicia showed no signs of anger. Instead, she fiddled with her headband with a look of regret on her face.

"I thought you would be interested in the gift given to you by someone outside this paradise. After all, it's exactly the same headband as the one on your head, and it even has magical powers."

Mebius, who originally wanted to drive the two away and make a new plan for the next ambush, was stunned.

"But since you don't like it, Mebius, I'll take it. I was just wondering what farewell gift I could give Keno to take away from Paradise. Now I don't have to worry about that anymore."

"Then Kaino, let's go."

Alicia turned around and winked at Kayno secretly.
