Honkai Impact 3: Saving the former civilization by rubbing the black technology

Now that things have come to this, I might as well go to sleep first - I still have to deal with the Stigmata Project tomorrow.

Ai Yue thought about it, then walked towards his room.

However, when he opened the door, he found that the light was on and there was a figure sitting on his bed.

"Apponia?"

Ai Yue was stunned for a moment, "Why are you in my room? Didn't Mebius take you to clean the room?"

"yes,"

Aponya nodded and said gently, "This is where I cleaned up."

As she spoke, her eyes wandered, as if looking behind Ai Yue.

Before Ai Yue could react, he heard the sound of the door behind him being locked. He turned his head and saw Mebius standing quietly behind him with a smug smile on his face.

"What are you doing?"

Ai Yue frowned slightly, but then realized, "No, you two?"

He suddenly recalled the expression on Alicia's face when she first asked him if he needed her to stay overnight.

At this moment, Ai Yue understood everything.

"Alicea, save me!"

Elsewhere, Ailishia, who had already returned to her dormitory, looked up with a hint of understanding: "Ai Yue?"

Chapter 73: It’s so weird, look at it again.

Padufilis suddenly woke up in the middle of the night.

I don't know if it's because of the fusion of the Honkai Beast's genes, or because life in the Light Star Experimental Base is too lazy, but Padfils's current lifestyle has completely changed to being active at night and sleeping during the day. She finds various places to sleep during the day, and starts patrolling the base at night. She is really about to turn into a cat.

Of course, if necessary, she could also stay awake for several days and nights, but since there was no need for that now, she could do whatever she wanted.

So Padofelice, full of energy, began to patrol the base, as if she were a pet guarding the house for her owner.

Eh, although this statement is a bit self-deprecating, but if I think about my current life carefully... it seems that I am indeed being supported by Brother Yue?

A bunch of chaotic thoughts flashed through Padufils's mind, but she then accepted it with peace of mind - what's wrong with being Yue's pet? The life she has now is something many people envy!

Besides, she and Ai Yue need each other, and there is no such thing as a pet-owner relationship.

After easily erasing the little ripples in her heart, Padufilis continued to wander around the base.

What Padofelice likes most about the Light Star Experimental Base is that there are so many idle rooms here. She runs around in it every night. If she is tired, she just sleeps on the spot. If she wants to go back, she just finds a drone to ask for directions. It can be said that this place full of mystery and unknown is the amusement park of her dreams.

Of course, not every room here can be entered. At least 30% of the laboratories in the experimental area have been designated as "untouchable areas" by Ai Yue. Not to mention Padfils, even Mebius needs to ask Ai Yue for permission before entering.

But for Padovice, the remaining area is enough for her to play around.

She used her abilities to walk through the hall, the storage area, the drone hangar, and the unused rooms that had not yet been arranged, while also guessing what the room behind the wall would look like. This experience, like opening a blind box, made her enjoy it and was also subtly training her abilities.

This is also her own original exercise method.

However, using the power of a fusion warrior for a long time is very physically demanding. Before long, Padofelice felt tired and couldn't help yawning.

Better find a place to sleep…and see what the next room looks like!

While thinking, Padufilis walked through the wall in front of her, and what came into view was a bedroom.

Hey, am I back in the living area?

Padofelice scratched her head and couldn't help but smile.

I was so lucky that there was a bed right in front of me just as I dozed off!

The living area of the Light Star Experimental Base has many guest rooms, which are usually used to accommodate guests for overnight stays. However, it has now become Padofelice's random cat bed. For example, today, she can have a good sleep here. Even if it is messed up, it doesn't matter, there will be drones to clean it up anyway.

But the next second, Ai Yue's figure appeared in Padfils' mind.

Speaking of which, it’s been a while since you last slept in Brother Yue’s room, right?

During this period, because Ai Yue was busy with the Stigmata Project, he had to eat and sleep in the laboratory. As a result, Padofelice had no chance to get into his bed and had to stay in the living area.

But today is different - Ai Yue doesn’t have work today, so he will definitely rest in his room at night!

Thinking of this, Padufilis felt that the bed in front of her no longer smelled good. She turned around, pushed open the door, and began to look for the way to Ai Yue's room.

Although it is the living area, Ai Yue's room is not here. In order to facilitate work, he deliberately placed his room in the experimental area. However, the experimental area and the living area are right next to each other, so since Padfilis has arrived in the living area, it is easy for her to find Ai Yue's room.

But just when she was about to reach the door of Ai Yue's room, she suddenly stopped and showed a puzzled expression.

It’s strange, why can I still hear the sound...Could Brother Yue not have slept yet?

The sound insulation of the Star of Light is actually very good, but Padophilis's five senses have all been enhanced by the Honkai Beast gene, so even though the sound is very subtle, she can still detect it when she gets too close.

Padufilis frowned and listened carefully for a while. Suddenly, her ears twitched and her face began to turn red.

Okay, what a strange sound... And it seems that there are not only Brother Yue's voice, but also Sister Snake and Sister Nia's voice?

What are they doing together so late?

Padofelice originally wanted to leave. After all, she felt a little embarrassed to get into Ai Yue's bed while he was awake.

But now it seems that it is no longer a question of whether Ai Yue is awake, so she must find out what happened!

Padufilis looked around furtively, then quietly sneaked into the laboratory next door - she knew the layout of Ai Yue's bedroom very well, and knew that there was a wardrobe behind the wall in this direction. It would naturally be more concealed to spy from this place.

It's convenient to just stick your head in from the other side of the wall, but it's too easy to be discovered.

Padufils carefully moved her upper body through the wall, and there was indeed a wardrobe on the other side. However, just as she was about to push the wardrobe door to observe the scene inside the room through the gap, a sound that was not blocked by the wall came into her ears.

The next second, Padufils jumped up and took two steps back in embarrassment, as if she was frightened.

How could they be doing something like this?! And three of them?

How weird, too weird!

Although she didn't see the specific images, judging from the sounds alone, Padofelice knew what had happened in the room. After all, she was not completely ignorant of these things.

But Padovich really didn't expect things to turn out like this.

After learning about this, and recalling the strange atmosphere between Mebius and Aponia during dinner tonight, Padufilis understood a lot.

She wanted to leave here quickly, for fear of being discovered eavesdropping and embarrassing everyone, but she was still hesitant to move.

This kind of thing... this kind of thing... I really want to take a look!

After struggling for a long time, Padufilis finally followed her inner desire. She quietly entered Ai Yue's closet, then slightly opened the door and looked into the house through the gap.

I watched this all night.

That night, only one person in the entire base slept soundly.

Chapter 74: Was it successful?

A week later, in the "Stigmata Project" laboratory.

Ai Yue and Mebius were busy, apparently counting and organizing materials and documents related to the experiment.

"Do you really want to suspend the project?"

Looking at the equipment in his hand, Mebius' eyes showed a hint of reluctance: "We have already tried so many methods, and we should be getting results soon. Wouldn't it be a shame to stop now?"

"But we have already spent too much time on this project, and up to now, there is still no substantial benefit."

Compared to Mobius, Ai Yue was much calmer. "If we continue like this, the research progress of the Fire Moth will stagnate. We can't be bogged down by one project for too long."

He looked at the still functioning device and said, "So, let's try one last time."

"What if this succeeds?"

Mebius asked.

"Then the project can continue,"

Ai Yue asked in return, “But how likely do you think it is?”

Mebius said nothing, but just sighed - if they really thought that this plan could succeed, they would not pack up like the host at the end of the news program when the credits came out.

However, although it was a pity, Mebius had to admit that what Ai Yue said made sense. They were now putting all their energy into this project. Although the success of the "Stigmata Project" might have a revolutionary impact on the current situation of mankind, before it succeeded, all of this was meaningless.

Whether it is Ai Yue or herself, they now have more responsibilities and really cannot put all their energy on a project that may not be successful for an unknown period of time.

However, Ai Yue's attitude was a little too resolute, as if he was... very anxious?

"almost done."

Ai Yue's voice brought Mebius back to her senses. She lay down on the bed consciously, waiting for Ai Yue to inject her with the results of this last experiment.

But after waiting for a long time, Ai Yue still didn't show up. Mobius finally sat up and found Ai Yue staring at the thing in his hand in a daze: "What's wrong? Could it be that it really succeeded?"

"That's not the case, it's just that the results this time seem to be better than ever before."

Ai Yue came to his senses and walked towards Mebius with the syringe. "Look at the quality of this. It's not an exaggeration to say it was just separated from Kevin's blood sample, right?"

"really,"

Mebius looked at the special substance in the syringe and nodded, then unbuttoned his shirt. "What are you waiting for? Come and try it."

Unfortunately, the reality is cold. After receiving the injection, Mebius waited for half an hour and did not feel any change at all.

"It seems it still doesn't work."

She got out of bed helplessly and continued to pack her things. "What on earth is wrong with this thing?"

"I still lack more basic knowledge. This kind of thing can only be done slowly and cannot be rushed."

Ai Yue glanced at her and smiled. "However, after injecting you with so many things, perhaps the opportunity to awaken the stigmata is already hidden in your body. It all depends on when you can activate it."

"It's unlikely. If there really is such a thing, there's no way there wouldn't be any clues."

Mebius shook his head. "Forget it. I'd better go back to the Shenyin Project. My observation period is over now."

During the observation period of approximately two weeks, Hua's performance was very stable. Even when she was deliberately placed in an environment with extremely high concentrations of Honkai energy and fought with Honkai beasts to exhaustion in order to test the stability of Shenyin under extreme conditions, she was still able to maintain her sanity and showed no signs of going berserk.

Although it is only an isolated case at present, Hua has indeed proved the reliability of the Shenyin Project, so the project can continue.

After the two of them finished sorting out the materials in the laboratory, Ai Yue passed another document to Mebius: "Go back and take a good look at this document. Try to master it as soon as possible."

"What is this... 'Project Brahma'?"

Mobius opened it curiously and took a look. Then his expression became subtle. "Isn't this the project you're in charge of? Why are you handing it over to me?"

"The Brahma Project is still in its early stages of accumulation, and I don't think I need to spend too much time on it,"

Ai Yue waved his hand casually. "Since the conditions on your side are sufficient to support this plan, I'll leave it to you for now. I've prepared all the necessary materials, and you can take them with you when the time comes."

"Okay, at worst, I can ask Mei to help."

Mebius sighed, but didn't refuse. "But the project is handed over to me, what are you going to do?"

"I still have a lot to do. I need to dismantle the Herrscher's power, update the existing equipment and weapons, and iterate and upgrade the Fusion Warrior formula..."

Ai Yue shook his head. "It makes me dizzy just thinking about it. How about you stay and help me?"

"Of all the things you mentioned, I can only help with the last one."

Mebius quickly refused, "So you're on your own."

She smiled with a hint of gloating: "But if you really can't hold on any longer, you can come find me, okay?"

"Looking to you will only make me more exhausted, okay?"

Ai Yue glanced at Mebius meaningfully, and the other party understood instantly, then twisted his waist and said, "Okay, let's go quickly, Hua should be waiting for you."

The two men then arrived at the hall. Hua Guoran was already waiting there. Upon seeing the two men, he took the initiative to approach them: "Dr. Ai Yue, Dr. Mobius, shall we set off now?"

"Ah."

Ai Yue nodded, then looked around, "Where's Paduo?"

Come to think of it, I haven't seen her much these past few days - although the main reason is that I have hardly left the laboratory.

"I just finished training with her an hour ago. She must be sleeping somewhere now."

Hua was a little unsure, "Do you need me to help you find it?"
