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

In fact, if the two were to face off head-on, with Aponia's current attainments in mental power, he might be able to find a flaw in the Ruler's mind. However, the Ruler was very cowardly. Once he found someone dangerous enough trying to invade, he would immediately abandon the individual that the other party used as a breakthrough point. He was just like a turtle, making it impossible for anyone to attack him.

"Not even Aponya."

Dr. Mei also sighed, "It seems we will never know this secret."

As the most powerful psycho-perceptive fusion warrior known to date, Aponia's mental strength even surpasses that of the Eighth Herrscher. This is simply incredible, but even such a person would find it difficult to face the Herrscher of Domination. So, it is likely that humans will never be able to capture a living Herrscher of Domination.

"That's not so pessimistic."

Ai Yue shook his head, but did not elaborate. "Anyway, the information has been delivered. You can handle it yourself. If you need anything, just contact Rose. She will arrange it. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

After saying this, Ai Yue once again exited the communication, leaving several people looking at each other in bewilderment.

"What Ai Yue meant by that just now is that he has a solution?"

After a while, Kevin asked tentatively.

"That's obviously the case, but since he won't say it directly, perhaps he's not sure himself."

Dr. Mei shook his head and said, "Let's wait for news. If Ai Yue can really do it, he will definitely tell us later. For now, let's deal with the list issue first."

"More than 9,000 people, scattered all over the world, it's really a headache."

Wei Erwei couldn't help but sigh, "Even if there are more than 9,000 pigs, it's not that easy to catch them!"

"Instead of complaining, you might as well use your strengths."

Dr. Mei glanced at her. "The existing Herrscher cores of the Rulers are all with you, right? Find a way to use them to make a batch of weapons, and quickly."

"I know, I know."

Wei Erwei listlessly picked up the detection device she had made and walked out of the house. "Really? They don't give any money but they make so many demands. They are such black-hearted capitalists!"

"You say it again?"

Dr. Mei's eyes flashed with a hint of threat. "When you helped Ai Yue build the experimental base, you kept a lot of benefits for yourself, right? He may not care, but I remember them all. Do you want me to calculate them for you?"

Wei Erwei's pace quickened instantly, and she slipped away pretending she heard nothing.

"Wei Weiwei is still as lively as ever."

Alicia smiled and said, "But Mei, you don't have to be so cautious, right? After all, we're all fighting against Honkai!"

"She's busy now, so she doesn't have time to think about anything else. If she waits until this is over and she has the money in her hands again, you'll know how serious the problem is."

Dr. Mei knew Velvet's character well, and he didn't share Alicia's optimism. "You wouldn't want to be suddenly summoned to the Spiral Workshop by Velvet one day and attacked with a weapon she'd made specifically for you, would you?"

Dr. Mei is very clear about the mental state of these scholars within the Fire Moth, including herself. When faced with the threat of Honkai, they are reliable teammates, but once the Honkai disaster temporarily subsides, this group of people will become the biggest threat.

Kevin, who had a deep understanding of this, couldn't help but nod his head - as Weiwei's number one victim, most of the things that the other party had spent so much effort researching fell on him.

While Dr. Mei and others were still racking their brains to deal with the Ruler of Domination, Ai Yue had already arrived at the First Research Institute at the Fire Moth headquarters through the portal.

"Dr. Ai Yue, why are you here?"

The ever-present figure in the laboratory is Klein's busy life. However, compared to his panda-like tired appearance in the past, Klein is now much healthier. At least he no longer gives people the feeling that he might die suddenly in the next second.

"Where's Mebius?"

Ai Yue pulled over a chair and sat down, putting his hands into his pockets.

"Dr. Mebius is currently in charge of the surgery on a new batch of fusion warriors. I'm staying here to process the data from her previous experiments using the Herristic Pseudo-Hermaphrodite potion."

Klein said honestly, his eyes still fixed on the computer screen, "If you want to look for her, you can go to the Fifth Science Department, or wait until tomorrow. She should be back."

"Oh, that's just right."

Ai Yue nodded and pulled his hand out of his pocket. "I'd like to take this opportunity to talk to you, Klein."

"what?"

Klein finally turned his gaze towards Ai Yue and pointed at himself, his face filled with confusion. "Me?"

Chapter 69: Can we communicate seamlessly across a channel?

Objectively speaking, Klein is definitely a scholar with great potential. The fact that she was noticed by Mebius and entrusted with important tasks is enough to prove her strength.

Obviously, assistants are also divided into high and low levels. Klein, who can handle various affairs within the institute independently, is much better than the Cangxuan sisters who are responsible for buying milk tea for those who are late and handing tools during surgery.

But Klein himself knew very well that compared with Dr. Mebius, he still had a lot to learn.

As for Dr. Ai Yue, whom even Dr. Mobius could only sigh in despair, he dared not even think about it.

You know, even when Dr. Mobius occasionally had sweet dreams and talked in his sleep, he only dared to say things like "Ai Yue, I am finally on equal footing with you, hehehe", and he didn't dare to imagine the scene of surpassing Ai Yue. This shows how big the gap between the two people was in Mobius' heart.

Therefore, in Klein's view, although Ai Yue is a person with a friendly attitude and a surprisingly normal personality, the reason why she was able to know him was entirely because of the relationship with Mebius. Apart from that, she was afraid that it would be difficult for her to have any real intersection with Ai Yue in her lifetime.

But such an unreachable person actually said that he wanted to talk to himself?

Klein's first reaction was that he was hallucinating because he stayed up late doing experiments.

But this is impossible. In the past, even if I worked overtime for three days and three nights, I would not have hallucinations as long as I had coffee and milk tea. What's more, this time I only worked overtime for one night.

Therefore, her second reaction was to think that the Ai Yue in front of her was disguised as some strange creature.

So after getting over his initial confusion, a hint of vigilance appeared in Klein's eyes.

"Dr. Ai Yue, what do you want to talk about?"

She didn't show any special reaction on the surface, but in fact her right hand had already touched the alarm under the table. As long as Ai Yue in front of her made any strange moves or revealed his true identity, she would immediately call the police and let the fusion warriors who stayed at the headquarters to maintain security rush in and take him down.

This vigilance naturally could not escape Ai Yue's eyes, but in his opinion, such behavior was very reasonable.

Because he knew clearly that in the original plot, Klein also became a member of the Ruler of Domination.

However, even among all the Rulers, Klein is the most "harmless" one.

This does not mean that the other party is a special being who is unwilling to harm humans, but because Klein's chosen target is to "assassinate Mebius."

Yes, it is to assassinate the immortal Mebius.

In the original plot, Klein did succeed - she used her ability to kill Mobius when he was off guard. However, this scene was witnessed by Su who happened to enter the First Research Institute. Su, who had become a fusion warrior, immediately used his ability to control Klein, but just as he was thinking about how to deal with Klein, Mobius was resurrected.

Because Mebius's resurrection required sufficient nutrients, she unconsciously devoured the energy source closest to her, that is, Klein, the Ruler of the Rule. Su did not stop this for his own reasons. For this reason, he felt guilty for not being able to save Klein and chose to hide this from Mebius.

Ai Yue originally did not want to intervene in this matter, because when he knew that the Ninth Herrscher and the Tenth Herrscher appeared at the same time, he realized that it was too late to save Klein, so he could only hint this matter to Mebius and let the other party make the decision personally.

But he didn't expect that after he walked out of the laboratory, Klein and Mebius were still alive.

Although it was unknown why Klein did not take action, this gave Ai Yue an opportunity, an opportunity to try to turn the Ruler of Rule back into a human being.

This is why he went to talk to Klein.

"Things have come to this point, and I think it would be better to be open and honest."

With this in mind, Ai Yue simply stated his purpose. He pulled a small device from his pocket and placed it in front of Klein. "With this, your connection with that place will be completely severed. No need to worry about anything else."

This was something he invented by reverse-engineering the core of the Ruler of Domination. It could block the quantum entanglement-like connection between the tenth Ruler that ignored physical distance, and release a camouflaged signal, allowing the isolated individuals to still express a normal state in the Ruler of Domination's connection network.

In this way, even if Klein as an individual notices the abnormality and warns other individuals, other individuals will not be able to receive effective signals. Since they cannot receive effective signals, they naturally will not choose to dominate and cut off this normal individual signal.

In other words, the most critical problem encountered by Dr. Mei and others, "being unable to capture the Ruler of Rule alive", has been solved by Ai Yue. Now they only need to control Klein himself, so that Ai Yue can study him and try to access the huge mental network in his identity and study or destroy it.

But to Klein, these words were undoubtedly a blatant threat - the other party had actually blocked the First Research Institute's communication system, making the alarm unable to work properly, so his original plan would naturally be ruined.

But this also confirmed Klein's previous guess. The person in front of him was indeed not the real Dr. Ai Yue, but a villain who appeared here in the other person's identity through some unknown loophole and wanted to steal important information!

Even though Klein was powerless, as the second-in-command of the First Research Institute, how could she surrender simply because of a threat? Even at the cost of her own life, she had to protect Dr. Mobius's precious experimental data!

Klein stood up without hesitation, ready to fight to the death. "I won't let you succeed! I..."

Klein didn't get to finish her words because Ai Yue, who was watching her every move, suddenly attacked the moment she made any unusual move, instantly completing the armor transformation and then pressing Klein down on the table.

"Stop struggling. It's just a waste of energy."

Ai Yue, who thought the other party wanted to commit suicide, said this, then put his hand deep into Klein's collar and said, "Let me see your Herrscher core!"

Klein, who was still struggling, was stunned. "What Herrscher Core?"

Ai Yue, whose hand was almost reaching for Klein's stomach, was also stunned: "Huh? Where's your Herrscher core?"

The two people looked at each other speechlessly at this moment, and both felt as if they had made a mistake.

At this moment, the door of the First Research Institute opened.

"Ahh, I'm exhausted. Klein, how's your experimental data coming along..."

Mebius walked in while stretching, and almost sprained his back when he saw the scene in front of him, "What are you two doing!"

Chapter 70: Destiny changed because of someone.

This scene is undoubtedly very embarrassing. If three ordinary people encountered this situation, the emotional entanglement would probably not be resolved until three episodes have passed.

Fortunately, there was no normal person among the three people at the scene, so the misunderstanding was quickly resolved.

"So you suspect Klein is the Ruler of Herrscher."

After hearing Ai Yue's explanation, Mebius's frown finally relaxed. "I thought you were finally unable to hold it back and were about to unleash your bestiality."

"When have I ever lost my bestiality? It's always you who loses it, you slut!"

Ai Yue righteously retorted, "Sorry, Klein, I misunderstood you."

"It doesn't matter, as long as the risk is eliminated."

Although Klein blushed a little, she shook her head to show that she didn't care. But then she looked at Ai Yue with curiosity, "But, Dr. Ai Yue, why do you think I am the Ruler of Rule?"

It is not difficult to see from Ai Yue's behavior after entering the door that he did not doubt the idea that "Klein is the Ruler of Domination" at all, but directly regarded it as an established fact. In the end, it was not until he personally checked it that he realized that something was wrong. So the question is, why is Ai Yue so sure about this?

Ai Yue could only play dumb about this. After all, he couldn't just say, "I've read the script, and this is what's written in the script," right?

"Maybe there's something wrong with Prometheus. After all, when judging through big data screening, there are bound to be mistakes."

Mobius didn't doubt Ai Yue at all, but instead attributed the problem to the artificial intelligence. "After all, Klein has changed a lot recently, so it's understandable that he was misjudged."

Ai Yue calmly changed his movements and quietly covered the sound device of the Prometheus extension with his arms, silencing her attempt to defend herself.

"I see, is that so?"

Klein nodded without dwelling on the issue. He simply looked at Ai Yue again, a hint of gratitude on his face. "Mainly, it's all thanks to Dr. Ai Yue."

"what?"

Ai Yue was stunned for a moment, "What does it have to do with me?"

"I, that..."

Klein was stunned for a moment, then began to stammer again, "Why don't we just forget it? It's just some insignificant matters, so I won't waste your time, Doctor..."

"You bastard, I've deliberately built a bridge for you, why are you shrinking back now?"

Mebius, standing by, was furious. He walked over and carried Klein in front of Ai Yue. "You were the one who said you wanted to thank me in person, weren't you?"

Klein's petite body was lifted into the air by Mebius. She could only twist uncomfortably before surrendering: "I, I understand! Dr. Mebius, put me down first!"

Only then did Mebius put Klein down, but he still stood behind her, looking like he was supervising the battle.

"Well, that's not really a big deal."

Seeing no way out, Klein confessed honestly, "Dr. Ai Yue, you probably remember that I used to work overtime all the time, often consecutively, right?"

"Yeah, very impressed."

Recalling Klein's severely sleep-deprived appearance, Ai Yue couldn't help but nod, "I remember I asked Mobius to give you more time off."

"Taking a holiday is not a good thing for me,"

Klein said, "After all, I actually asked for the job."

"Because only in this way can I forget my fear of collapse."

Ai Yue seemed to have thought of something and couldn't help blinking.

He did seem to have some recollection of this incident, but not much.

After all, the original Klein didn't have many roles, even in the plot related to the previous civilization, so we could only try to piece together the other party's details from various fragmented languages.

"It was almost impossible for me to fall asleep normally before. Even if I did fall asleep with other means, I would wake up from nightmares very quickly."

Seeing that Ai Yue didn't show any impatience, Klein continued, "For me, the fear brought by the collapse is indescribable. I can only truly fall asleep when I am extremely exhausted."
