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

Thinking of this, Ai Yue stood up and said, "There are still many things that need to be dealt with."

"Eh? Are you in such a hurry?"

Instead, Padufils lay down directly and reached out to pull Ai Yue's pants. "Brother Yue, you are just too nervous. It would be a pity not to bask in the rare good sunshine."

After hearing Ai Yue's strong request, Padufilis completely let go of the last bit of entanglement in her heart and nonchalantly exposed her lazy nature in front of Ai Yue.

"...That's all."

Ai Yue looked up at the sun, then at Padufils who was patting the mat to invite him, and finally lay down. "Let's talk about it tomorrow."

Padufilis was not surprised by this answer at all, because Ai Yue had spoiled her like this before.

Thus, this afternoon passed slowly in leisure. Ai Yue closed his eyes, half asleep and half awake, as if he dreamed of the familiar scene again.

But when he opened his eyes, he couldn't remember what he had seen in his dream.

"Brother Yue, you slept so soundly."

Padofelice lay on her side beside him, propping her head up on her elbow, staring at him for who knows how long. "You're really too tired, aren't you? You should get more sun. I'll push you harder in the future!"

"You're pushing me to be more lazy, aren't you?"

Ai Yue sat up from the mat, stretched his body, and a subtle expression appeared on his face, "You really are the opposite of Tian Gang."

"I just figured it out. Brother Yue, you're so busy all day long. You just need a slacking master like me to adjust your daily schedule!"

Padovice looked as if she had found a job. "Work and rest, work and rest. Only work without rest is not enough!"

Ai Yue could only make a helpless expression and then reached out to pinch Padova's cheek.

"Wait, it's not over yet!"

Padufilis slapped Ai Yue's hand away and said seriously, "I've just thought about it. There's one more thing you have to promise me!"

"Tell me, what else do you want?"

Ai Yue also put down his hand and said, "If it's reasonable, then I can consider it."

Padufilis said seriously, "I want to become a fusion warrior."

Ai Yue was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Okay, I'll arrange surgery for you when I get back."

"Eh?"

This time it was Padufils' turn to be stunned. "Brother Yue, aren't you going to stop me? Didn't you always warn me not to touch Sister Snake?"

"Then was then, and the present is now."

Ai Yue waved his hand and said, "The fusion warrior surgery is no longer risky. If that's the case, then I have no reason to stop you."

As he spoke, he took out a tablet from somewhere and handed it to Padufils: "Here, take a look for yourself."

"What is this?"

Padofelice looked down at the various photos of Honkai beasts displayed on the tablet, and couldn't help but reveal a puzzled expression.

"Hypervariable Factor Self-Selection System."

Ai Yue said, "You can choose a Honkai beast you like from among them to serve as the source of the super-mutation factor used in the fusion warrior surgery."

“Is everything so human now?!”

41

Chapter 41: In order to become stronger, I stop being a human.

In fact, conventional fusion warrior surgery is naturally not so humane. In order to maximize the ability of the fusion warrior, a compatibility check is generally required to screen out the most compatible Honkai beast according to each person's situation. If you want to choose the fusion object according to your preferences, that is impossible.

Therefore, among the second-generation fusion warriors, there is no shortage of such things as "someone who hates reptiles ends up fusing with a snake-shaped Honkai Beast" and "someone who is afraid of heights gains the ability to fly after fusion".

Of course, Padova doesn't have these worries, because Ai Yue will help her solve all problems except her preferences.

"its not right,"

Padofelice lowered her head and picked for a long time before she suddenly realized, "Brother Yue, why don't you ask me why I suddenly want to become a fusion warrior?"

"Anyway, if you really want to say it, you won't be able to hold it back."

Ai Yue shrugged, "Like now."

"Woo!"

Padofelice made a sound of being seen through, but she couldn't hold it back. "I just don't want you to worry too much about me."

Ai Yue has always spent a lot of thought on her safety. From the various props used in Dusk Street to the armor system used in Fire Moth, each one contains Ai Yue's care for her.

Padu knew very well that she could not take on any big responsibilities, nor did she have the ability to do anything for the future of the world, but at least she could make herself less of a worry for Ai Yue, and becoming a fusion warrior was a better choice.

In this way, even if I can't become as powerful as Sister Ai Li and the others, at least I can have the power to protect myself.

In that case, Ai Yue wouldn't have to worry about her anymore.

This is what Padovice wanted to tell Ai Yue.

"I see, our little Padu has really grown up."

After hearing what Padufils said, Ai Yue couldn't help but look at her with a kind look, "You all know how to think about others."

"Don't talk in that old man's tone."

Padofelice couldn't help but laugh at Ai Yue's expression, "So, is this Honkai Beast powerful?"

She finally chose a cat-like Honkai beast. It was completely black, and its surface was as smooth as silk, as if it could reflect light. The overall image was slender and delicate. It did not look like a dangerous Honkai beast, but instead gave people a feeling of elegance and arrogance.

"Oh, Bastet."

Ai Yue took it and took a look, then revealed a subtle expression, "How should I put it? Although it may not be very strong, it should meet your needs."

Although Bast does not seem to be as tall and ferocious as other Honkai beasts and does not possess terrifying combat power, he is actually a genuine emperor-level Honkai beast.

However, although it sounds powerful, the damage it causes is actually very limited. Bast, which was born along with the "Rersher of Domination", was first discovered in a European city. It would destroy various facilities in the city in the middle of the night, and because it has the ability to pass through matter, it is difficult to be discovered.

But the problem is that its body size is indeed only that of an ordinary cat, and its own abilities are not too destructive, so the damage it causes is indeed quite limited.

Of course, the most crucial point is that the Ruler who was supposed to command its actions was discovered by Prometheus using the global monitoring network on the first night of the sabotage operation, so a combat team of Fire Moths was immediately sent to kill him on the spot, leaving only Bast to escape using his ability.

Without the Herrscher's command, Bast, who does not have a very high intelligence, would find it difficult to cause any substantial damage. Otherwise, if he could sneak into the key facilities in the city and destroy them under the Herrscher's guidance, his power should not be underestimated.

"Ooooh, sounds like a great escape!"

After listening to Ai Yue's introduction, Padufilis's eyes lit up immediately, "I want this!"

"no problem."

Ai Yue agreed, "Then let's go back to the Star of Light for the surgery first, and we can discuss the formalities tomorrow."

"Okay!"

Padofelice agreed immediately, but suddenly hesitated, "By the way, Brother Yue, do you think I won't mutate after the operation?"

"Mutations?"

Ai Yue was stunned for a moment, "What mutation?"

"Just... uh, turn into a cat?"

Padovice thought for a moment, "Or maybe grow ears that aren't human, like Sister Ying?"

"It depends on your personal wishes."

Ai Yue understood what Padofelice meant and then said, "Currently, this redundant distortion can be eliminated, but some people choose to keep it."

"Is there really anyone who likes this kind of thing?"

Padofelice was stunned for a moment, then nodded as if she remembered something, "That's right, there are people who like this."

"Besides being a hobby, Redundant Distortion can also increase the upper limit of a Fusion Warrior's power, making it much stronger than other Fusion Warriors."

Ai Yue continued, "Therefore, some people choose redundant distortions for greater strength. For example, among this batch of fusion warriors, there is one who has grown a tail. Not only is his own strength much greater than that of his peers, but his tail is so flexible that it's almost like a third hand. After training, he can wield an additional weapon in battle."

"That sounds quite interesting!"

Padofelice showed an eager expression on her face, but then hesitated. "But it would look strange if a human grew the limbs of a beast, wouldn't it?"

"It's okay, animal ears are cute, aren't they?"

Ai Yue said casually, "It depends on your personal preference. It doesn't really matter if you don't add it. That part of the combat power can be compensated in other ways."

But then he also showed a thoughtful expression.

Padfilis's words reminded him that as the number of fusion warriors continued to increase, more and more people chose redundant deformation in order to gain greater strength. However, it can be said that it is human instinct to reject the alien. Even if these warriors are all brave warriors fighting against Honkai for the future of mankind, their appearance will obviously make them easily be regarded as monsters.

He remembered that Sakura seemed to have experienced something similar, so unless necessary, she would rarely expose her long ears to others. After getting the armor, she never disarmed herself in front of anyone other than her friends.

It seems that we must also think about how to eliminate this prejudice and estrangement.

Ai Yue was thinking, and suddenly remembered a plan that he had forgotten for a long time.

In order to stimulate the vitality of human civilization, in addition to the stage plan, was there also a "Cultural Victory Plan"?

42

Chapter 42 has completely turned into a gray man.

The Cultural Victory Plan, like the Stage Plan, is a plan prepared by Ai Yue to revitalize society.

In today's era of rampant disasters, people have become increasingly negative and pessimistic. Although superficial harmony can be barely maintained thanks to the efforts of governments and international organizations, after the Seventh Great Collapse directly burned the entire Australian continent, this superficial harmony has become difficult to maintain.

The specific manifestations are that society is gradually coming to a standstill, scientific and technological development is stagnant, the population is decreasing year by year, and the entire civilization is rapidly losing its vitality.

You know, although geniuses and elites have the ability to guide the development of civilization, the foundation of whether a civilization can continue still lies in ordinary people. If most people choose to give up, then the decline and chaos of civilization are inevitable.

Stronger countries may be able to barely maintain stability, but in some small countries, any devastating disaster may lead to the collapse of a country. The global chaos index is rising, evil forces and cults are rampant, and they are expanding their influence in places where the United Nations cannot intervene, adding fuel to the fire of a civilization that is already heading towards doomsday.

These forces are very difficult to deal with because they have secret connections with many large conglomerates, and some are even the white gloves of certain countries.

It can be said that in this era, it is very common news for a country to declare bankruptcy or even disintegrate. Every day, countless victims appear, struggling desperately in this chaotic era.

In addition to fighting against the Honkai disaster, the Fire Moth warriors also have to deal with the forces that breed chaos and evil, as well as rescue the victims and prepare the most basic resettlement environment for them.

In fact, the Dusk Street gathering place was also established with the help of the Fire Moth. Aponia was actually an insider about this, so she had been helping the Fire Moth to cover up and prevent their existence from being exposed to the world too early.

By the way, it was because of this incident that Velvet met Aponya, and it was also because of Aponya's Riddler behavior that she mistakenly regarded the Fire Moth as the culprit of the Honkai disaster.

Of course, these are all off-topic. The point is that in the face of increasingly frequent Honkai disasters and unscrupulous extreme forces, even if the Fire Moth can use one person as five, it is difficult to take care of the whole world.

Until Ai Yue appeared - to be more precise, it was after he obtained the Herrscher core of the Eighth Herrscher.

The mind control that humans cannot resist and the opportunity to contact high-level leaders allowed Ai Yue to complete the investigation of evil forces in a very short time. Then, relying on the computing power of Prometheus, he began to unite the armed forces of various countries to purge extreme forces around the world.

With the specific list and the cooperation of various countries, coupled with the infiltration and guidance of Prometheus, the whole process can be said to be very smooth. In just less than three months, 95% of the extremist forces in the world were eliminated, and the remaining people retreated to the deep mountains and old forests to make a final stubborn resistance. However, these rotten fish and shrimps were obviously not worth targeting anymore, so Ai Yue did not care about it anymore and left it to the local people to monitor.

If there hadn't been this advance purge, perhaps things wouldn't have gone so smoothly when the Fire Moth revealed the truth about the Honkai Impact 3rd - you know, if someone with ill intentions incited panic at this time, it would easily lead to uncontrollable consequences.

Of course, even if these extreme forces are eliminated, it will not solve the current predicament of human civilization, so Ai Yue prepared the "Cultural Victory Plan".

The plan to guide mankind to regain hope by vigorously developing the cultural and entertainment industries - although it sounds simple, it is actually difficult to implement.

Because when material conditions cannot meet basic human needs, how can people be in the mood for entertainment?

Therefore, the basis for the implementation of this plan is to improve people's quality of life.

Of course, someone is working on this plan.

After the fusion warrior surgery on Padova was completed, while waiting for Padova to wake up, Ai Yue dialed Vivi's number.

"Yo, busy man~"

A teasing voice came from the other end of the communication, accompanied by the roar of various machines. "Why did you suddenly think of looking for me? Mobius is not here?"

"Which Vivi are you?"

Ai Yue sighed, "Never mind, none of them really matter. Anyway, how's the progress on your end?"

"How should I put it? Sixty percent, I guess."

Wei Erwei said casually, "The wiring and pipelines are all done. Give me another ten days and this place will be almost finished."

"You are holding 70% of Fire Moth's budget for this year."

Ai Yue reminded him, "It's been so long, and you can't even manage a small metropolitan area?"

"Small? Boss, this is a city that's expected to accommodate five million people. How come you call it a small metropolitan area?"
