K424 of the Collapse World

Group: 5436593 eight 9 In Tesla's worried eyes, Shirley frowned and spoke softly, blinking in some confusion.

Yes, it was like a ghost, passing by him in a flash. It seemed to be a fleeting illusion, but it was chilling in an instant.

It's a bit too abnormal to call it an illusion, but...

"Shiris, should we activate the alarm?"

Tesla tried to ask, but the girl shook her head.

"No... I have just expanded my perception to a range of two kilometers around me, and I can't sense any abnormal energy reaction."

"What's going on?"

"I don't know... maybe it's an illusion. After all, it was only a vague moment, and there was no real perception."

The girl shrugged and lowered her head in thought. Although her perception had never deceived her, Shilis really couldn't figure out what was going on.

"Have you been sleeping well during this period?"

"The Herrscher body does not need the sleep of ordinary creatures."

"When you put it that way, I can only think that it was a reaction from your excessive fatigue."

"But in fact, I am not sleepy at all now... No, maybe you are right. I was seriously overdrawn a few days ago. I am afraid there will be no unknown sequelae..."

Group: 543659三89 Shirley shook her head. Although she was very concerned about what might have happened just now, she had no clue and could only temporarily judge it as an illusion.

Besides, she has urgent matters to deal with now.

"Sorry, maybe my nerves twitched. Let's continue talking about Wendy."

As she spoke, the girl sighed softly and her thoughts returned to Wendy's question.

"Should I ask Otto for help again..."

"Don't worry yet."

Tesla interrupted the girl's mumbling, gently rubbed his Qingming acupoint, relaxed himself, and put on his red-framed glasses again.

"If you take that girl to Tianming, it's like sending her into a wolf's den. Although I'm not very good at the knowledge related to the Herrscher body, there is another person who should be able to help."

"Who?"

"She is in the Far East Branch, and she is very familiar with you."

"Dr. Einstein?"

"When you get into trouble, do you only think of me and Ain? You should know that among the conservatives in the Anti-Entropy Organization, there are probably few people who are good at biological experiments."

"Conservative? Ah..."

When we talk about conservatives, we immediately think of their opposite, the anti-entropy radicals. As far as Hillis knows, there should be only one representative radical member of the Far East Branch.

"You mean Cocolia?"

"Yes, your mother is probably the best at human experiments in the entire Far East branch. With her help, and a few skilled surgeons, Wendy's surgery will probably be guaranteed."

"But this...are you really sure?"

Shirley's expression was a little stiff. In the memory of "Lan Feng" in her mind, the impression of the original plot was quite deep. She clearly remembered that when Cocolia dug out the Desire Gem in the original book, she directly took Wendy's life...

Could she really cure Wendy instead of hastening her death?

Well, even if Cocolia in the original novel didn't care about Wendy's life or death, which led to that result, but would there really be no problems in restoring this history?

You know, fate likes to play some malicious tricks at times like this.

laugh......

"Oh my~ So you don't trust your adoptive mother? I really hope that the female fox can see this."

Seeing Hillis's suspicious eyes, Tesla's mood suddenly became cheerful.

"Don't worry. Although that woman's character is questionable, the skills she possesses are real. Moreover, her feelings for you don't seem fake. If it's your commission, she should do her best to complete it."

"Well......"

"But first, you have to go and ask her to come over. Although I may have to cooperate with that guy, I don't want to take the initiative to ask that annoying woman for help."

Looking at the still hesitant Hillis, Tesla added this sentence, then sat down quietly, waiting for the girl to make a decision.

"...Well, it seems there is no other choice."

The girl nodded with difficulty, and finally gave up the idea of ​​asking the Destiny Organization for help.

"I will go find Cocolia for help. I'll leave the preparations for the surgery to you. Wendy's matter cannot be delayed for too long. She has a different physique from me, and she can't resist the erosion of the Law of Destruction for a long time."

"Okay, okay... I'll contact a good doctor near the Far East Branch first. By the time you find that annoying woman, I think everything will be ready here."

Tesla nodded impatiently, put away the Herrscher Core on the research table and locked it in a metal cabinet.

"Then I'll go to the medical department. I wish you and your adoptive mother a smooth relationship, Boss Shilis. Don't create any family disputes before the operation."

"..."

Hearing Tesla's teasing, the girl rolled her eyes and took the lead to walk out of the laboratory.

"Humph, you're becoming less and less cute..."

The girl ignored him, and Tesla just smiled, closed the electronic door of the laboratory, and started to move towards the medical department in the opposite direction of Shirley...

The footsteps of the two people soon faded away, and the corridor of the private laboratory returned to silence.

Click——

At this moment, the tightly closed metal electronic door of the laboratory suddenly made a crisp sound of the door lock being activated.

"Ah~ This is really dangerous..."

Accompanied by clear and pleasant laughter, a tall black shadow walked in leisurely and went straight to the sealed experimental table.

"I will take the key item to pass the level without hesitation~?"

The dim golden light curtain quietly enveloped the world before our eyes.

Like small flies trapped in solidified amber, everything covered by the dim light has completely turned into a static work of art.

The waves stopped surging, the clouds stopped floating, the willow leaves falling in the wind were still in mid-air, and the ripples in the puddles formed into a spreading circle...

The people covered in this light turned into old statues. Under the slightly quaint pale golden light curtain, it seemed as if no living creatures existed.

Facing the magnificent view before her, the girl standing in the middle of the road frowned, slowly retracted her outstretched hand, and looked around at everything in front of her in confusion.

Rosalia pulled her sister's hand, as if she was dissatisfied with the distribution of drinks just now, and wanted to snatch the strawberry soda from her hand, but Lilia raised the soda can high with her tail, refusing Rosalia to exchange it with bitter melon soda.

Bronya and Seele walked side by side on the other side. Seele smiled at the playing Arlene sisters, while Bronya looked at the smile of the blue-haired girl.

In front of her was a can of spicy barbecue flavored soda thrown to her by Rosalia. The girl threw the most exotic flavor to her without hesitation, and just as she was about to raise her hand to catch it, this scene was frozen in time by the golden light...

This afternoon, Xing agreed to the girls' invitation to visit the Far East Branch's A-rank Valkyrie training ground. This was halfway through their journey.

But suddenly, the dark golden field unfolded.

In this stagnant world, only Xing's body and clothes still retain their original colors, and are not stained with the pale golden color that solidifies everything...

That's right, this is her own ability, the power to interfere with time obtained through the X-10 experiment.

Xing looked at her hands blankly. There was no doubt that she had taken the initiative to open the barrier of time stopping. The spreading mental power and the consumed Honkai energy were all accurately reflected in her mind. Sure enough, compared to a few days ago, the duration of her ability had become several times stronger...

But why should I activate my ability?

Xing asked herself this, but she couldn't get the answer from herself.

Yes, she didn't know why she wanted to activate her ability.

This wasn't a case of losing control of her abilities. It was like she instinctively took the can of drink thrown by her friend. She just did that instinctively.

, as if something bad was going to happen. It was this subtle feeling that made her do it without hesitation even though there was no basis for it.

It's really inexplicable...

After a brief hesitation, Xing suddenly felt something and took the initiative to remove her time-stop barrier.

Click...click...

In the girl's sight, the golden light curtain that covered everything quickly faded away, returning the world to its original color.

However, at the last moment when the golden color faded, Xing suddenly opened her eyes wide...

(What’s going on! My body…?!)

clang-

The next moment, the sound of a metal can falling to the ground echoed in her ears, waking the panicked girl up.

The thrown can fell to the ground and rolled to her feet.

"Ah! Xing, are you okay?"

Xing blinked, only to see Rosalia running towards her screaming, looking at her cautiously.

"I'm sorry, I didn't know you were in a daze just now...Are you not hurt by the collision just now?"

Hurt? Oh... yes, the soda can that she didn't catch just now fell directly on her.

Xing was stunned at first, then quickly recalled what happened just a second ago.

(The time stop...has been lifted?)

Xing looked around at a loss. But it was obvious that the ancient pale golden light curtain had disappeared, and what came into view was a world that had resumed its flow.

Yes, the time stop had indeed been lifted. The moment she took the initiative to remove the power, it was just like usual...

"Are you okay? Xing, did something go wrong during the physical examination at noon?"

Looking at Xing who was still in a trance, Xier couldn't help but walk up to her and asked, picking up the can at the girl's feet.

"Ah... I, I'm fine, I just got distracted for a moment."

Xing spoke absentmindedly. Although she had calmed down, there was still a hint of confusion in her eyes.

Was the time stop really released normally? But why, at the moment when she removed the power, she seemed to see that the golden light covering the world did not disappear, but spread over her body...

"Sister Xing, are you really okay? Mom said that your stigmata had changed. Could it be related to this incident?"

"Xing, if anything happens, don't keep silent about it."

Lilia and Bronya also came over and looked at Xing with some worry, their eyes filled with genuine concern.

No matter how much they quarreled, they were sisters from the same orphanage, growing up together under the same roof, and in a sense, they were no different from family members...

Under the worried gazes of the girls, Xing rubbed her head, and after taking a few deep breaths, her bright heterochromatic eyes regained their luster.

"I've already told you it's okay, so why are you still surrounding me? Do you think a mere can hurt me? Don't underestimate me!"

Xing unceremoniously snatched the drink can from Xier's hand, glanced at the body of the can, and walked towards Rosalia with a grin who had not yet reacted.

"Pink-haired idiot! Not only did you sneak attack me, but you also tried to force the most unpalatable thing on me? Why don't you try the spicy barbecue flavored soda yourself?"

"Eh? I..."

Hearing this, Rosalia was stunned for a moment. Just as she was about to say something, Xing had already opened the pull ring of the can, grabbed her tail, and turned around to block the soda can in her mouth.

"Wuwuwu...! It's so spicy! It's so hard to drink! No, Uncle Xing, please forgive me, I won't dare to do it again..."

"Just finish what you bought! Who told you to use everyone's money to buy this weird flavor?"

"But this is Lilia's Gulu Gulu...! Ah! It's really spicy! Xing, the idol's throat is very important! If you go on like this, their future will be ruined...! Please, wuwuwu gululu..."

"..."

Xing still didn't stop until she poured the whole can of spicy soda into Rosalia's mouth. Seele was a little scared and hugged Bronya's arm. Lilia, who usually stood on the same front with her sister, also hid aside this time, not daring to face the rampaging Xing.

Well, this is the usual Xing. Although the girls don't know what happened to her just now, she has obviously returned to normal now...

“Ah… ahem…! That’s too much…”

Rosalia, with tears in her eyes, knelt on the ground, looking resentfully at Xing who had a calm face, as if she was angry but dared not speak.

"Okay, just consider it as my treat."

Xing threw the can lightly and accurately into the trash can dozens of meters away, then opened her arms and stretched.

"Don't be so depressed. Don't you still have a can of bitter melon-flavored soda? After drinking too much sour and sweet things, wouldn't it be a good opportunity to taste the bitter and spicy now?

"
