"I don't feel anything,"

Mebius shrugged and couldn't help but glance at the profile of the person next to him. "But it really made this guy happy."

She was indeed no different from a mere passerby tonight. After all, the entire stage was given to someone to perform. Even Mebius doubted whether the people present would still remember tomorrow that in addition to person No. 198, there was another person No. 199 who also joined the Seeking Knowledge Sect at the same time.

But she didn't really care about this kind of thing, so it didn't matter to her.

“So happy!”

Ai Yue couldn't help but give a thumbs up, "Oh, is this what it feels like to be rich and powerful? It's so cool! I really want to do it more often!"

"You're almost there,"

Mebius rolled his eyes. "What's the difference between your behavior and a college student trying to challenge an elementary school student to a mental arithmetic challenge?"

"What words, what words is this!"

Ai Yue glared, "I'm contributing to the development of human technology, okay?"

Mebius curled his lips, but finally couldn't help asking: "So, what you said is true?"

Ai Yue was stunned for a moment: "What's true or false?"

"That's what you said to Einstein at the end."

Mebius looked at Ai Yue and asked, "You don't really think of yourself as a god, do you?"

"That's not the case. I'm not that arrogant, okay?"

Ai Yue couldn't help but ask, "Do I look like a psychopath who would call himself a god?"

"picture."

Mebius said seriously, "Most importantly, I think you are indeed qualified to call yourself a god."

This actually made Ai Yue feel awkward: "Are you praising me?"

"certainly,"

Mebius smiled slightly, then turned his head away. "But it would be better if you didn't become a god."

The lights outside the car window flickered, shining on Mebius's face, making her expression unreadable.

The price of becoming a god is very heavy.

Chapter 24: Those who understand first will lead those who understand later.

Ai Yue didn't pay too much attention to what Mebius said, and Mebius didn't intend to continue on this issue. After all, it felt very strange to discuss whether Ai Yue could become a god.

"By the way, Eden,"

As if thinking of something, Ai Yue looked at Eden in front of him again, "If possible, I hope you can get in touch with Einstein more and help her manage the affairs of the Seeking Knowledge Sect. I'm afraid she will be a bit busy from now on."

Although what happened tonight was a tacit understanding among everyone and therefore not directly pointed out, Ai Yue was very clear that the news of his appearance in the Seeking Knowledge Sect would probably spread quickly within Atla City and attract more scholars to join.

At that time, how to maintain this sect will become an issue that everyone must pay attention to. Now because there are relatively few people, it can still be maintained by the self-consciousness of the members, but as more and more people join, a professional management team will naturally be necessary.

"It sounds like you are very optimistic about this sect?"

Eden also heard the hidden meaning in Ai Yue's words, "What a surprise! I thought you would be quite disgusted with an organization that acts under your banner."

"It's just a matter of fact. If someone uses my name to do something bad, then I will not let them go."

Ai Yue smiled and said, "But it would be unreasonable not to help an organization that can promote scientific progress, right?"

To be fair, although it always feels strange to be worshipped as a god, the purpose and philosophy of the Seeking Knowledge Sect are very much in line with Ai Yue's appetite.

Therefore, on the premise that this organization does not deteriorate, he is willing to lend a helping hand to ensure that scholars can have an environment for equal exchange and communication.

If possible, he even hopes to spread the sect's ideas to a wider area and get more people to join in.

In an era of confrontation between countries, knowledge, as an extremely important resource, is controlled by different forces. Therefore, it is actually extremely difficult to circulate and disseminate it.

This situation has led to many scientific and technological projects that could develop rapidly by allowing more scholars to participate, but for various reasons they are used as weapons to threaten other forces. This phenomenon is obviously unhealthy.

With the establishment of the United Earth Government, the barriers between countries finally began to loosen, and the premise for the flow of knowledge has been quietly achieved.

Just think about it, if scholars all over the world can put aside things like background and talent, communicate with each other, and make progress together, then the world's science and technology will surely enter a period of rapid development.

Although this growth rate is theoretically far less than the driving force of Ai Yue's contribution to the development of human science and technology, it can comprehensively change every corner of human life, which is something that Ai Yue alone cannot do.

In order to defeat Honkai, the technology tree he controls is actually very distorted. Such development may be able to solve the threat of Honkai, but it cannot allow human civilization to grow healthily.

As the savior of this world, Ai Yue believes that he needs to consider the future of all mankind, and the Knowledge Seeking Sect is obviously a good point of intervention.

"I understand."

Eden smiled and replied, "It just so happens that there's nothing urgent going on lately, so leave the issues of the Seeking Knowledge Sect to me."

Ai Yue nodded and said nothing more.

He was relatively confident in Eden's style of doing things. It could be said that among the several fusion warriors, Eden was the one who understood human nature the best. Letting her do this was the most reasonable choice.

The three of them quickly returned to Eden's residence in Atla City. As expected, it was also a luxurious single-family villa. Two girls dressed as maids were waiting to greet them at the door. This rare attire made Ai Yue take a few more glances.

As soon as he looked away, he was met with Mebius's interested expression: "Why, do you like this?"

“It’s just rare.”

Ai Yue explained, and then quickly changed the subject, "But Eden, I didn't expect you to have a mansion of this level in Atla City."

"It was a gift from a friend. If it weren't for entertaining guests, I probably wouldn't use it easily."

Eden said casually, "Do you like it? If you like it, you can live here permanently."

"Forget it, I'm still not used to this kind of life."

Ai Yue shook his head, then glanced around the room, "Where are Aponya and Padu?"

"Nia should be selecting the fine wines to be tasted at tonight's wine party,"

Eden responded, "As for little Padu, I gave her the key to the collection room. Is she still in there?"

Ai Yue was shocked: "You let Paduo into your collection room?"

What's the difference between this and putting a wolf in a sheepfold?

"Precious jewels only have value in the hands of those who love them. To me, they are just a collection gathering dust."

Eden smiled and shook her head, clearly not caring about the matter. "Maybe it's because I promised Padu that she could pick something she liked and take it away, and that made her suffer from choice anxiety?"

She's not suffering from indecision-making difficulties, but rather greed, right?

Ai Yue was about to say something when he saw Padofelice reluctantly coming up the stairs leading to the basement: "Sister Eden, I've made my choice... Hey, Brother Yue, are you guys back?"

Seeing Ai Yue sitting in the living room, the cat-eared girl excitedly rushed over, lying on Ai Yue's thighs, and holding up a carefully carved gem in her hand to show him: "This is what Sister Yiden promised to give me - uh, Sister Yiden, should I choose this one?"

She felt a little guilty halfway through her words and couldn't help but look at Eden beside her, fearing that she would not agree.

"Of course,"

Eden smiled and nodded. "Little Padu has a good eye. This is the rarest ruby in the collection room."

Padufils could only laugh dryly at this and said nothing - as a homeless child, she had no appreciation for the gems. Her only criterion for selection was that they had to be expensive enough, so she finally chose the largest and most beautiful gem in the collection.

Fortunately, the value of a gemstone is generally linked to its size and purity, so her choice was not wrong.

After a while, Aponya also came down from upstairs, holding a few bottles of wine in her hands: "Eden, I've made my choice...Ah, you guys are back?"

She placed the things in her hands on the table and then sat down next to Eden. "So, can the party begin?"

Ai Yue blinked immediately: "What, is there something else for me?"

Chapter 25: It is said that wine gives cowards courage.

Ai Yue finally escaped the cocktail party because he really didn't like drinking.

However, in comparison, Mebius was not so lucky. Having let Ai Yue escape, Eden naturally had no reason to let her escape again, so he used some unknown conditions to bribe her directly and let Mebius stay.

On the other side, Padufils also wanted to run away, but when she heard Eden say that the value of this bottle of wine was more than the ruby she had just obtained, she immediately decided to stay and taste it, and became the fourth member of the party.

As a result, Ai Yue became a lonely man.

Of course, Ai Yue doesn't really care about this kind of thing. It's better to say that he can take advantage of this private time to do some things that are inconvenient for him to see others.

For example, check whether your plug-in is working seriously.

Ai Yue lay down on the bed and closed his eyes, and the system interface appeared in his mind again.

Research on the Stigmata Project has yielded results. It is certain that the phenomenon that occurred in Mebius was indeed caused by the perfect fusion of spirit and body.

Unfortunately, however, this was not the result of the Stigmata Project, but a miracle that occurred by chance after the Stigmata Project was combined with Mebius' own abilities.

In other words, if the person who completed the Stigmata Project was not Mebius, then it might have led to a different result.

But even so, Ai Yue has obtained enough data from Mebius. As long as he continues to verify in this direction, he will one day get a way to stably integrate the spirit and body.

In addition, the system also gave the results of the Stigmata Plan. This plan reduced the difficulty of awakening the Stigmata and could effectively further improve the human's resistance to Honkai. However, at the same time, people who awakened the Stigmata through this plan could not activate their own Stigmata space at the beginning.

This is also Ai Yue's usual style, to achieve a compromise result through a compromise method. Although the effect of the results obtained in this way is relatively limited, it is safe enough and will not cause any problems.

As for the stigmata space, it can be filled through other subsequent means. If one patch is not enough, then use two. It will work one day.

Browsing the contents in his mind, Ai Yue also became a little agitated - he hadn't been in the laboratory properly for several days, and now he had received a project that needed to be verified urgently. He felt uncomfortable all over at the moment.

How about just stopping the trip and going back to work?

Ai Yue thought about it and finally gave up the idea - although it is indeed impossible to travel to every corner of the world, it would be too anticlimactic to go home after only visiting two places.

At the very least, you have to go to a place that ordinary people can't reach in the end.

Ai Yue was still planning his next trip when he heard a knock on the door: "Ai Yue, are you asleep?"

Ai Yue walked over and opened the door, and saw Eden holding Padovani's arms with both hands, barely supporting her in place: "Great, so you didn't sleep. Then I'll leave little Padova to you to take care of it, right?"

At this moment, Padufils' eyes were hazy and her face was flushed. She relied entirely on Eden's support to avoid falling to the ground. It was obvious that she was drunk. Even Ai Yue saw her behave like this for the first time.

"Ah, Brother Yue..."

As if she had seen clearly the person standing opposite her, Padufilis subconsciously stretched out her hand, but just fumbled around Ai Yue, "Hey, two Yue brothers... three Yue brothers? That way you can give me one, right?"

"what's the situation?"

Ai Yue took Padufils from Eden's hands and couldn't help but reveal a subtle expression, "Do you even force children to drink?"

"This is really unfair,"

Hearing this, Eden showed a distressed expression. "Actually, we only poured half a glass of wine for little Padu, but even with only half a glass, she became like this... Maybe she drank too much?"

Recalling how Padufils drank the wine in the glass in one breath with great courage, Eden couldn't help but smile helplessly.

"It seems that you are still too young,"

Ai Yue recalled the label on the bottle of wine that Aponya had brought over and couldn't help but shook his head. "But don't worry, it will be fine in a while."

After all, Padofelice is a fusion warrior. Just half a glass of wine can only cause a temporary impact on her. She will recover after a rest.

"Then I'll leave it to you,"

Hearing Ai Yue's answer, Yiden nodded and said, "I wanted to ask the maids for help, but she kept calling your name, so I had no choice but to come to you."

"Have it?"

Ai Yue was stunned for a moment, then looked down at the girl who had curled up in his arms, "But this girl has fallen asleep."

"It seems she really depends on you,"

Eden also smiled. "Only by the side of someone you can trust can you sleep so peacefully."

Obviously, Eden also knew about Padofelice's past experiences. She knew very well that it would be difficult for people who grew up in that kind of environment to settle down in an unfamiliar atmosphere. The only way was to have familiar people by her side.

"Then you think she is too fragile."

Hearing this, Ai Yue shook his head and said, "Perhaps Padu's courage is far beyond your imagination. Besides, it's hard to say who is more dependent on whom between the two of us."

"What an unexpected answer,"

Facing Ai Yue's words, Eden was stunned for a moment, then revealed a subtle expression, "But, I am still very good at judging people."

Leaving behind such a meaningful words, Eden said goodbye.
