"Of course I know you are not good at this field." Su still maintained his warm smile and said, "But don't you have a professional by your side? You just need to provide your advice and some things you know about Admiral. I think Dr. Mobius should have a solution, right?"

"Do you think I'm someone who cares about these things?" Mobius said to Su with empty eyes.

She came here just to understand the current progress of Admiller's experiment and compare the data she got from Admiller when she performed the super-transformation surgery on Zhu Yufeng. This was her original purpose for taking over this review.

As for the second purpose, it was naturally a plan she had temporarily discussed with Wei Erwei after she learned that Xila and Zhu Yufeng had met and fought.

The internal voices of the Fire Moth are still too noisy. Although they are basically unified in the general direction, the lessons of the previous life are still vivid in Mebius' mind. She knows that Zhu Yufeng also holds the same opinion, otherwise he would not have discussed the plan with her in the first place.

Of course, she also had some selfish motives here. She could indeed accept that Alicia was by Zhu Yufeng's side every day, and she could indeed accept that they were even in the same room during this mission, but that didn't mean that she didn't have any thoughts in her mind. That was impossible. The snake would wait, but that didn't mean the snake would do nothing.

This is her attempt. There are fewer people responsible for her safety. Those old guys who want her dead or those "hot-blooded young people" who believe everything they hear will definitely take action. Among the accompanying guards, Zhu Yufeng is the most capable fighter and the only one she trusts.

She believed that Zhu Yufeng was not that stupid, and she had just given him a slight hint just now, so didn't he react?

"If it was the previous Dr. Mobius, then of course I wouldn't think so." Su spread his hands, "But the current Dr. Mobius, I don't think it's impossible, what do you think, Feng?"

Zhu Yufeng: “…”

He had a feeling that Su was using him as a shield. He certainly knew how Mobius felt about him, and if he wanted to do so, Mobius would indeed give in, just like in that mission, when Mobius, who had never been willing to accept and treat patients eroded by Honkai, and she, who had always adopted shock therapy, finally gave in at his request.

That was the only time. Although the symptoms of the infected patients transferred to Mobius' laboratory were effectively controlled, they still did not live long. The last few people consumed most of the laboratory's experimental materials, and the top management did not want Mobius to focus too much on these trivial matters. Therefore, they were ordered to be transferred to the Fifth Institute, the area that Su was in charge of.

Zhu Yufeng himself doesn't care about the life or death of those people in the end. What he cares about is what the meaning behind it means if those people are cured. Unfortunately, even with the knowledge and experience of the previous life, although Mobius effectively controlled the symptoms of their being eroded by Honkai energy, it was still far from the requirement of recovery.

To some extent, he and Mebius are similar in this respect. They both take such things very lightly and don't care. Or, they have long been accustomed to not being understood and being alone, so they don't care about other people's opinions, and some of their own opinions are often different from those of the world.

Regarding the treatment drugs, Mobius has actually developed a drug that can theoretically treat the symptoms of Honkai energy erosion. However, on the one hand, the drug takes too long to take effect so that the final result is still unclear. On the other hand, the raw materials are too expensive to be mass-produced, so it was abandoned by Mobius. The relevant data was transferred to Su, who was responsible for following up on the subsequent treatment process.

Another reason why he asked Mobius for help was to help Kosmo enlighten Desdobia. Desdobia had also experienced a lot during this period. She followed up on Mobius' treatment of those who were corrupted, and also followed up on Su's treatment. She also saw the final result. When she performed similar tasks later, although she still felt reluctant, it was a big improvement compared to the first time. She would no longer ask Zhu Yufeng or Kosmo to find a way to save them. She would comfort those who were afraid and confused about the future, but that was all. After that, she chose to follow the procedure and handed them over to the Fire Moth branch personnel responsible for that area. If Su was free, they would be transferred to the Fifth Institute later.

So Zhu Yufeng also talked to Mobius about what would happen next. If Mobius was interested in further studying it, he would bring some people back next time he performed a similar mission. If Mobius was not interested, then he would just do what he had to do.

"Su, I... don't really care about this." Zhu Yufeng glanced at Mobius and said, "I know what Admiral thinks, but I'm not interested and I don't care. Maybe Mobius can indeed refute Admiral, but... no, if you want to refute Admiral, you have to come up with solid evidence. Otherwise, no matter how correct the theory is, he won't change his mind. The best result is that he will find a place to dig a hole and bury himself."

Like Roffko, these research geniuses tend to get stuck in a rut, especially when it comes to their few remaining emotions.

Su squinted his eyes and looked at Zhu Yufeng with some doubts. He did know more about Admiral than others, but regarding what Zhu Yufeng said about Admiral who refused to turn back even if it was proved to be wrong in theory, Zhu Yufeng His tone was very positive, so as someone who knew other fallen angels better than himself, Zhu Yufeng must have his reasons.

Wait, Su found that he seemed to have fallen into a misunderstanding, because of the destruction and harm caused by Admiller in the previous life, and the lack of progress in related experiments afterwards, which made him deny Admiller's research direction from the bottom of his heart. But now Zhu Yufeng said that Admiller's current idea cannot be changed, and for the sake of having more combat power in the future, Admiller cannot be killed. Then, can we take a step back and try to change his approach? Not asking him to change his research direction, but can we change his approach?

Thinking of this, Su was about to speak when Mebius said slowly, "Since Yufeng said that it is basically impossible for Admiller to change his mind, then I can try to change the direction and make him less radical. Although, based on what I did before, it doesn't seem to be very convincing."

Yu Su looked at Mobius with some surprise. He never thought that Mobius would take the initiative to ask this.

"Don't look at me like that, just this once." Mobius said unhappily, "Just think of it as... that incident with Klein. I'll return the favor."

"That time with Klein..." Su was stunned, and didn't realize what Mobius was referring to. Because in his memory, every communication between him and Mobius was not pleasant, and he never helped him in any way. How could he repay his favor? And when it came to Klein, Su only thought of the karma he had committed.

Is that considered a favor?

"I have told Mobius the truth of that matter." Zhu Yufeng said. Regarding the incident where Klein became the Tenth Herrscher, everyone involved felt that they were wrong, but in fact, no one was wrong. It can only be said that... it was fate that played tricks on them.

"You told Mebius?" Su's expression changed, "But..."

"Do you also think that I will collapse, give up everything, and commit suicide?" Mobius said with his arms folded and his eyes empty. "I'm really sorry. I made you, the enlightened one, miscalculate. But if Yu Feng wasn't here, you might not be wrong to think so. After all, no one can say for sure what hasn't happened, right?"

Su was silent for a moment and then said, "I owe you a favor."

"Hmph, whatever you want. You can think so if you want. We have been chatting here for long enough. Shouldn't you take us to our temporary residence?" Mebius seemed a little impatient.

Zhu Yufeng put his index finger on his chin. He really couldn't understand why Su would rather owe Mobius a favor for those dispensable people. Could it be that people's joys and sorrows are not the same? It's not that he didn't understand it at all, but he just felt strange about it.

As a person of heavenly wisdom, Su should have seen through the myriad aspects of life and should have been accustomed to the separation of life and death of all living beings, but he still wanted to save everyone he could. Should we say that he is worthy of being set as the Buddha in the game? Buddha has a thousand aspects, which can be kind and gentle, or angry. In essence, it is for all living beings.

It is no wonder that when Kevin was carrying out the Stigmata Plan later, Su chose to pick up the Black Abyss White Flower and the Star of Eden to fight Kevin head-on without using any force.

Even after this, with guilt towards his best friend, Su once lost his original heart in a thousand years of self-confinement, but in the end, he still found his original intention.

Who did Su play chess with after that? The Imaginary Number Tree? Or something else?

Zhu Yufeng was thinking as he and Mobius followed Su to the car that came to pick them up. Then he remembered the words Kevin asked him to tell Su when he came here.

After the three of them got in the car, Zhu Yufeng took out a recorder and handed it to Su: "Kevin asked me to tell you something, but I don't think I can replicate his tone, so I just asked him to record it and I brought it here."

The corner of Su's eye twitched slightly, and then he took the recorder that Zhu Yufeng handed over: "Can't he contact me on his phone?"

That being said, he also knew that he had been very busy during this period. On the one hand, he had to test and evaluate the new drugs that Mebius had given him but that she was too lazy to research. On the other hand, he had to collect and organize the data of the patients. He also had to consider how to deal with Admiral...

Although Kevin is naive, he is not stupid. He knows that Su is busy these days and what he wants to say is not important, so he will not disturb Su with messages on his mobile phone. It would be different if he asked Zhu Yufeng to deliver the message. At least Zhu Yufeng, who is present at the scene, can judge when Su is not so busy, and then tell Su what he wants to say.

In this way, Zhu Yufeng can also tell Su's reply. Anyway, when Zhu Yufeng unilaterally stopped seeing Ai Lixia, he was the one responsible for passing messages between the two. Isn't it natural for Zhu Yufeng to help him pass on a message?

"Originally, he only had one sentence to say, but when I took out the recorder and asked him to record what he wanted to say, he hid in the toilet and talked for most of the day. He was so secretive that people who didn't know him would think he had found a new lover outside without telling Mei." Zhu Yufeng looked at Su jokingly and said, "Sometimes I think, if you were a girl, Mei would not have any role at all."

"Indeed." Mebius nodded, then glanced at Zhu Yufeng, "You too."

Zhu Yufeng: “?”

What does that mean? If he was also a girl, Mei would have no chance to act? How is that possible! How is he the same as Su? His relationship with Kevin is not as good as Su's, right? Otherwise, why would Kevin keep it a secret from Su?

"I don't expect you to know whether it is the same or not. Anyway, we know it much better than you do." Mebius rolled his eyes and said.

Zhu Yufeng: “…”

Please turn on the microphone to communicate. Today he will have a good fight with Mebius about this matter. He and Kevin have a brotherly relationship at most, how can it be as outrageous as Kevin and Su? Didn't you see that Kevin is as stupid as a husky only in front of Su and Mei? Although he is either courting death or on the way to death in front of himself every day, he is still not as open as when he is in front of him, Su and Mei.

"Since Kevin wants to avoid you, maybe what he wants to tell me is related to you?" Su decided to end the topic immediately. He had no doubt that Zhu Yufeng was capable of chatting so much that he would go to his grandmother's house. He also had no doubt that Zhu Yufeng would say something like "Look, apart from his close relationship with Kevin, which girl or boy is worthy of Su doing this?" There was a driver here. If Zhu Yufeng really said these words, he would never be able to clear himself even if he jumped into the Yellow River.

"Is it related to me?" Zhu Yufeng raised his eyebrows, and then his expression became strange as he thought of something.

Given Kevin's silly personality, could it be that he asked Su to keep an eye on him and Mobius during this period of time?

"It seems that you have thought about it too. Now I feel that what you said is meaningless. After all, your relationship with Kevin doesn't seem to be as far-reaching as you thought." Su said jokingly.

Zhu Yufeng: “…”

What's with that cheerful tone? Su, you have to keep your image as an enlightened being and don't switch careers and become a mapo woman!

Chapter 121 A Big Gamble

After arriving at the temporary residence arranged by the Fire Moth for Mobius and others, other security personnel walked in first and inspected the temporary residence under the watchful eyes of Zhu Yufeng, Mobius and Su.

"It seems that although you are not very popular with those people, your treatment is still quite good." When the security personnel withdrew to discuss the subsequent security work, Zhu Yufeng looked at the residence arranged by the Fire Moth for Mobius and said.

"For some people, this is like my last meal before execution. Give me a better treatment, maybe it can numb me a little." Mobius said lightly, "Hehe... People with a little cleverness are always easier to guess than idiots."

Su glanced at Mobius, wondering what Mobius was planning. She obviously knew that the number of security personnel accompanying her this time was less than usual, so it went without saying what she was about to face.

So, what was Mebius going to do with this incident? With Feng here, nothing should happen. The only ones who could threaten Mebius' safety were assassins who carried out close-range assassinations. After all, even if the number of security personnel arranged by the Fire Moth for Mebius was small, there was still a standard number of people to guard against assassinations such as long-range sniping and explosions.

When Ying was trying to assassinate Mei, it was because she couldn't do it from a distance, so she arranged a killer like her with first-class swordsmanship to carry out the assassination at close range.

It was not easy for Sakura to break through the blockade and reach Mei. When she finally met Kevin, she was no longer in her best condition. The result of the battle between the two was that Kevin was injured and Sakura failed in the assassination and was captured.

Now that Sakura has joined the Fire Moths, it's impossible for her to be assigned to assassinate Mebius. And I heard that she was injured after fighting a killer in the last mission and needs to rest for at least a month... Wait, a killer who can fight Sakura and injure her?

Su immediately thought of the thirteen fallen angels, and it seemed that one of them was once a killer.

"It won't do you any harm to keep silent, Su." Mebius seemed to have noticed what Su had noticed, and said slowly, "You are only one of the people responsible for investigating Admiral. Other matters are not within your jurisdiction."

Su frowned: "Even if you are willing to help persuade Admiral, I owe you a favor, but I also think it is necessary for me to confirm whether what you want to do is..."

Mainly because of Mebius's character, what she wants to do is never so simple. Just like she said, a snake will not give up its goal, it will just lie dormant and wait for the opportunity. And the attack launched by the snake when the time is right is often dangerous and deadly.

It was unsettling to think that Mebius was willing to gamble his own safety.

"Su." Mebius' tone became a little cold, "You are meddling too much."

Su was silent for a moment, then looked at Zhu Yufeng. Zhu Yufeng probably guessed what Mobius wanted to do, and said, "Su, do you think I would object?"

"Because you and Mobius are both here, that's what makes me most worried." Su smiled helplessly, "Now that things have come to this, I can't say anything more. I will do what I should do according to my own ideas."

"That's all you need to do..." Zhu Yufeng said and looked at Mebius again, "Right, Mebius?"

If his guess was correct, Su's influence in this plan was not that great.

"The fewer people who know about this, the better. Even if Su and we are both reborn, the only thing we have in common is our identity as reborn. Our positions and paths are still different." Mobius said coldly, "Su, I warn you, don't interfere too much in this matter. Just do what you should do."

"You also said that our positions are different, so my answer will not change." Su said calmly, but after he said this, he changed the subject, "I will send you the results of Admiral's recent review later, and some of his experimental data and product information that are still under investigation will also be sent."

"I understand." Mebius waved his hand to indicate that Su could leave.

"By the way, where is my room?" Zhu Yufeng looked at Su and said, "Is this where Mobius lives?"

Just as Su was about to speak, Mobius spoke up, "During this time, you have lived with me. As an excellent fighter of the Fire Moth and as my experimental collaborator, it makes sense for you to be my personal bodyguard, doesn't it?"

Zhu Yufeng looked at Su blankly. Su spread his hands to show that he was powerless, and added: "Regarding this, Dr. Mobius made arrangements when submitting the list of relevant personnel, and the higher-ups have agreed to it..."

Zhu Yufeng: “…”

Even you know about this, and on the way here he always felt that the other security guards looked at him strangely, the younger ones were envious, the older ones were sympathetic, and there were others with inexplicable looks. He was still wondering what was going on, wondering if they were thinking about something else again. Now it seems... he is the only one who doesn't know about this arrangement?

Zhu Yufeng looked at Mobius again, and Mobius said calmly: "Weren't you busy with Alicia at that time? Weren't you chatting with Alicia after boarding the plane? And even if I told you these arrangements, would you refuse?"

Anyway, Alicia had also arranged this when she was on a mission, so was there anything wrong with her doing so? Of course there was no problem, and the most important thing was that Zhu Yufeng really had no way to refuse, because what she was about to encounter was an assassination from the murderous fallen angel.

If Zhu Yufeng was not by her side, she was afraid that no matter how many guards she arranged, they would not be able to escape Xila's assassination.

Zhu Yufeng held his forehead with his hand: "It's well-founded and cannot be refuted..."

"Then I'll leave first." Su said and left.

Looking at Su's leaving back, Zhu Yufeng stood for a while and then looked at Mebius: "Although I should know, I still want to confirm, is your adventure this time related to Xila?"

"Yes, the time is ripe." Mobius walked into the room and looked around. "Don't just stand there. Do you think that since I have fewer security personnel this time, there are no traitors inside?"

"About this..." Zhu Yufeng walked to a sofa that had been checked by the security personnel, took out an instrument and scanned it at the sofa. Then the instrument rang, and Zhu Yufeng took out a bug from under the sofa.

Mebius took a look at the instrument in Zhu Yufeng's hand. He knew who gave it to him from the familiar style. "Did Weierwei prepare it for you?"

"Yes, but I noticed this place because that person's actions caught my attention, and there was something wrong with his eyes when he looked at me and you a few times before. It was different from other people, so I paid a little attention to it." Zhu Yufeng crushed the bug. "The bug hasn't started working yet. It seems that he also expected that the temperature after operation would cause some instruments to detect it. Unfortunately... he ran into Wei Wei."

"It seems that you are more reliable than Kevin." Mebius crossed his arms and said, "I thought that besides being as wooden as Kevin, your IQ was almost the same as his."

Zhu Yufeng looked at Mobius with empty eyes and said, "At least my academic performance is much better than Kevin's, right? I have never lost to anyone in the academic assessment of every soldier in the Fire Moth."

When he joined Alicia's team after the Fourth Herrscher incident, Kevin had already emerged as the most prominent and dazzling new star in the Fire Moth. He had extraordinary fighting talent and a resistance to Honkai that far surpassed others and was on par with Alicia. He also had countless brilliant battle records from then until the Sixth Herrscher incident. As an ordinary soldier, he could not compare with Kevin in terms of combat power, so he could only start from other aspects.

If you can't defeat a Honkai beast head-on, then learn the characteristics of this type of Honkai beast, remember its weaknesses, and focus on observation in actual combat. Only act after you are sure you can kill it... He is really much more difficult than Kevin, who has such high combat power that he can just charge in...

But to be honest, ever since he recruited Lilith into his team, he was really only responsible for making decisions...

After all... apart from giving herself to 00, it seems that there is nothing Lilith can't do at the moment.

"If it were in the past, how would you deal with this kind of person, Yufeng?" A dangerous arc appeared at the corner of Mobius' mouth.

"I don't like anyone who is hostile to me, especially when this person's position is opposite to mine." Zhu Yufeng said coldly, "If I would care about these things, I would not have released the Black Abyss White Flower in Africa, and I would not have left no one alive."

"What about now? Are you concerned about Alicia?" Mebius said jokingly.

"Alicea is indeed kind, but she's not stupid." Zhu Yufeng said with empty eyes, "Her words... are probably intended to leave a loophole for that guy, so that he can be caught in the act and dealt with according to the rules of the Fire Moth. I'm different from her on this point. Of course, if she's here, I'm willing to obey her arrangements. If she's not here, do you think I'd care about these things?"

"That's exactly what Alicia would do." Mobius shrugged and said, "And your answer didn't exceed my expectations. After all... if it wasn't for Alicia, you wouldn't even care about this world in the beginning, right?"

"Until now I still don't care much." Zhu Yufeng said, "but for you, I still have to care a little bit."

"So what are you going to do next?" Mebius asked.

"Doesn't he like to do things for others? Then there's nothing wrong with him taking the blame for others, right?" Zhu Yufeng spread his hands. "Trust doesn't come without reason. Even if Xila doesn't have common sense, her instinct will tell her that acting rashly will easily arouse suspicion. And how many people will care about a small person?"

Just like after Xila joined his team, his first mission was to complete the operation of silencing the witnesses of the Dusk Street incident alone. This was not only an explanation to the top leaders, but also an explanation for him and Lilith to guarantee the release of Xila.

"Just as I thought." Mebius smiled.

The two of them checked again with the help of Wei Erwei's equipment. After confirming that there were no other eavesdropping devices, Zhu Yufeng asked, "Did you check alone before?"

"Of course I didn't care before, because it doesn't matter to me." Mobius spread his hands, "Besides, I have only done risky things like this three times, one time was when I went to retrieve Shesha alone, one time was when I performed a super transformation surgery on myself, and one time..."

"Is it the thing you want to do that you gave up infinity and physical survival?" Zhu Yufeng interjected.

"It seems that the story you know has not completely ended after the Final Battle. I did do that, but the result... because of someone's reasons, I don't know whether I succeeded or not." said Mebius.

"Then I'm really sorry." Zhu Yufeng answered perfunctorily, "But why do you think Xila would come to assassinate you this time? Although she injured Ying, she also paid the price of at least one hand. Even though her recovery ability is better than that of ordinary people due to the injection of body-transforming drugs, it is nothing compared to the recovery ability of fusion warriors. Although she can still carry out assassination missions, she is not in her prime."

"If she's not in her prime, can't she assassinate me?" Mebius said with a smile.

"Of course it doesn't matter to Xila, but does the organization behind her not care about her safety?" Zhu Yufeng frowned, "Xila is their trump card."

"You are bound by your past life's experiences, Yufeng." Mobius raised his index finger and shook it. "Even though we have been careful to avoid making reality too different from our past life after our rebirth, we have inevitably changed some things. The only one who can check and balance Xila is Ying, but Ying joined the Fire Moth early this time. For the organization behind her, Xila is no longer a trump card, but a death warrant that may be attacked at any time."

"So, even if Xila is not in her prime, you still want her to go on the mission?" Zhu Yufeng said thoughtfully, "And the target of the assassination is you. If it succeeds, given Xila's condition, I'm afraid she will die with you. With your status, this is another glorious achievement for the organization. In addition, you are popular in the Fire Moth, I'm afraid that the organization can just come up with a scapegoat to get away with it. And if it fails, the organization will not lose out, after all, the target of the assassination is you."

After a pause, Zhu Yufeng looked into Mebius' eyes and said, "This time... you are really taking a big gamble. Once Xila has a clear goal, it will be difficult for me to stop her even if she is injured."
