Thanks for the invitation, I am in the state of collapse, brushing attribute upgrade

"..."

Hearing Gwyn's words, Lei Dian Mei did not respond, but tears quickly filled her eyes, and in an instant, tears as big as beans burst out.

The girl pursed her lips tightly, without making any sound, and silently wiped the tears from her face with her hand, which was slightly blood-red.

Seeing this, Gwen breathed a sigh of relief. He gently held the girl's waist and lowered his head to kiss the tear marks on her pretty face.

Feeling the warmth on her cheek, Mei Raiden suddenly regained her senses. Unspeakable fear and excitement intertwined together, breaking down the girl's already fragile defenses, causing her to burst into tears.

written request for leave

We had another fight at home in the evening. My mind was in a mess and I couldn’t write anything. I would like to say sorry to everyone here.

We will try our best to adjust our condition tonight and fight for fourth place and fifth place tomorrow. Stay tuned.

Chapter 190 Mei's Self-blame

Faced with the girl whose defenses were broken and who was crying loudly, Gwen did not say any profound truths at this time, but just hugged her in his arms and silently comforted her trembling heart.

The belief that had supported her in facing the open ridicule and rumors for the past six months was shattered in an instant, so it was natural for the girl to be emotionally agitated.

All Gwyn could do at this time was to prevent the girl from going to extremes at this vulnerable moment, and then try to help her get out of this situation.

As Gwen's clothes gradually became wet, Mei's crying gradually became softer, from loud crying to low sobbing, and finally to barely perceptible whimpering.

I don’t know how long it took, but Mei felt that all the pressures of the past had left her with this burst of crying, and she gradually regained her sanity.

However, perhaps because she had just vented her emotions, or perhaps because she had let go of something, the girl was not as shy as she was during the day. Finally, she rubbed against Gwen and then slowly stood up.

The girl's pretty face, which was flushed from crying, no longer showed any shyness. Instead, she had a calmness that she had never had before.

"Mea Yi..."

Looking at Mei like this, Gwen's heart moved slightly and he called the girl's name.

"Um……"

Looking at Gwen, Mei nodded slightly with red eyes, and even showed a forced smile on her pretty face.

"Thank you, Zhisheng. I'm much better now."

"Um……"

Seeing that the girl in front of him was unexpectedly calm, even mentally, Gwen breathed a sigh of relief, but he couldn't help but feel a little worried.

However, Gwen's face did not show any strange expression. Without any excessive comfort, he continued to talk about what he had not finished before -

"Although your father does meet the charge of financial fraud in terms of the difference between the name of the funds raised and their actual use.

However, from the perspective of expected future returns, your father is fully capable of providing the necessary funds.

So, your father was just using the financial methods that are common to people at his level.

Considering that his intention was not to embezzle other people's property, Meiyi, you don't have to be obsessed with the so-called crime of financial fraud.

If we really count, all those big names whose names often appear in financial magazines, every one of them can't escape."

"Um……"

Listening to Gwen's explanation, Yayi's expression did not change much. She just stared quietly at Gwen who was making excuses for her father, silently digesting the information in Gwen's words.

After Gwen finished speaking, the girl pursed her lips, her voice heavy:

"Thank you, Zhisheng.

But, there’s no need to say such words to comfort me…”

Mei couldn't help but pause, sighed softly, and then continued,

"No matter what, my father did commit financial fraud. This cannot be denied..."

The girl's expression was relatively calm as she spoke, but beneath this seemingly calm exterior, her heart was pierced by something she had never imagined.

Although she was born into a wealthy family like the Raiden family, Mei Raiden, as the only daughter of Raiden Ryoma, has not received much education in political strategy, and her values and personality are not much different from those of ordinary people.

Therefore, Mei Raiden would not think that her father's approach was okay just because the financial tycoons mentioned by Gwyn did the same, nor would she accept all this with peace of mind just because Ryuma Raiden might have done it for her.

On the contrary, this girl who always behaves quite aloof to others is now in deep self-blame, thinking, "My father did this for me, so I also have an unshirkable responsibility."

"Ugh……"

Facing the dark eyes of Raiden Mei, Gwen sighed and continued without further explanation.

"As for why I said it might be because of you...

Wait a mininute."

Gwen stood up and went back to the bedroom. In front of Mei Raiden's puzzled gaze, he took out an ordinary medicine box.

Sitting back next to the girl, Gwen skillfully took out a tester from the mezzanine and began to conduct a blood test on Mei Raiden.

Although she had no idea what Gwyn was doing, Mei Lei Dian, who had many questions in her mind, believed that Gwyn would not harm her, so she cooperated with Gwyn's actions.

A moment later, the instrument in Gwen's hand lit up with a dazzling red light. Seeing this, Raiden Mei's heart tightened. Finally, she could no longer suppress her doubts and asked:

"Zhisheng, what is this?"

"In short, you can think of it as something that tests the level of Houkai energy in a person's body."

Having obtained the expected result, but still showing a bit of surprise on his face, Gwen put away the instrument and explained with a smile,

"Although this is just the simplest testing method, it also has certain reference value...

In short, in the real world that you have not yet encountered, Meiyi, you may be a rare genius."

“…Honkai energy?”

Hearing Gwyn's words, the depressed Mei Lei Dian quickly remembered the topic they had talked about before.

As she pondered over the term that was mentioned again, Mei Raiden felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity in her heart. She always felt as if she had heard this word before, but she had no impression of it at all.

"Um……

The so-called collapse energy..."

Gwen nodded. Because he had just briefly introduced the existence of Destiny and Anti-Entropy, and only mentioned Honkai Energy briefly, Gwen explained the definition and function of Honkai Energy to Mei Raiden before giving the conclusion of the test.

"Based on the results of the test just now, the amount of Honkai energy in your body, Mei, has already exceeded the level of an ordinary person who has not undergone specific training.

This means, Mei, you possess extraordinary resistance to Honkai energy, the ability to come into contact with Honkai energy without being corroded;

At the same time, it also means that Meiyi's adaptability to Honkai is not low, at least becoming an excellent warrior will not be a problem."

The dream of the middle school years seemed to be within reach, but Mei Raiden was not very happy.

Gwen beside her didn't have much of a smile on his face, but instead had a heavy look on his face, which made Mei Raiden, who felt as if a huge rock was pressing on her heart, feel uneasy.

Then, under the girl's doubtful gaze, Gwen slowly said:

"However, the test results just now also showed a problem -

As someone who has only received family kendo training, the amount of Honkai energy in your body is too high, so high that it's unbelievable, and even makes me wonder... whether there is an additional source of Honkai in your body."

Chapter 191 Changes in Title

Although Gwyn knew that Mei Lei Dian seemed to be a natural stigma awakener, this did not affect Gwyn's pretending to be ignorant and leading the topic to the Conquest Gem.

"There is a... source of collapse within my body?"

After hearing Gwyn's words, even Mei Raiden, who was feeling down and self-doubting because of the truth about Ryoma Raiden's imprisonment, couldn't help but be drawn in.

This anomaly... was too similar to what she had thought.

"Well, although you possess excellent qualifications, without systematic, long-term, high-intensity training, your body won't have much Honkai energy reserves—

It’s like a world-class athlete who, before professional training, is only slightly better than his peers in his field, or even slightly worse.”

Gwen nodded, and while doing scientific popularization, he guided the topic.

“And the strength of the Honkai energy in your body is far beyond what you should have.

Therefore, I have to wonder if there are other Houkai energy sources in your body."

"What will it be?"

Mei nodded, thinking that there was nothing wrong with what Gwen said, and then asked.

Although most of her mind was focused on her father's affairs, it was impossible for Mei Raiden to not care about something that involved her own life.

Anyone who knows something about Honkai energy can understand the danger of having additional Honkai sources in the body.

“I have two guesses about this:

First, it could be a congenital stigma, a rare talent that can give the person a strong resistance to Honkai energy, and is likely to be accompanied by excellent adaptability, and may also have some special abilities.

But among the limited number of people who are born with stigmata, your high concentration of Honkai energy is unique.

The second is that something else that can serve as a source of collapse has been artificially implanted into your body.

For example, the most common source of Honkai energy is the Honkai energy crystals extracted from Honkai beasts or dead soldiers using instruments...

Mei, have you ever had any surgery in the past?"

"Operation……"

Hearing Gwen's question, Mei frowned and shook her head subconsciously.

However, before she could give a negative answer, a sudden flash of inspiration came to her mind, and she remembered some past events. Her pretty face, which had originally had an unnatural blush due to crying, turned pale.

Pursing her dry lips, Mei asked about another possibility -

"Chisheng, what are the special abilities of those born with the stigmata?"

A possibility vaguely emerged in Mei's mind and she subconsciously resisted it, and instead asked about the situation of the natural stigma.

“The special ability of being born with a stigma, people who possess this ability are actually very rare.

Of the records I've seen, most simply grant the holder extraordinary resistance and adaptability.

Among the special abilities mentioned, the more obvious ones include the ability to control lightning or fire.

But it mostly manifests itself in enhancing one's own abilities. For example, in my case, it manifests as immense strength that surpasses that of people at the same stage."

Looking at the girl's expression, Gwen probably guessed what she was thinking, but he didn't point it out. He explained according to her question.

“However, according to research by some scholars, perhaps this enhancement is only the most basic ability of the innate stigmata.

As for its true power, it seems to have yet to be developed."

"Then... Zhisheng, do you think I could be the one you mentioned as a natural born stigma awakener?"

Mei, who was subconsciously resisting the second possibility, looked at Gwyn with a hint of urgency and hope, and asked.

“It’s indeed possible.

But I don't have any specific testing equipment here, so I can't be sure."

Gwen nodded in affirmation, but facing the girl's hopeful eyes, he increased the weight of another possibility -

"But... even if you were born with a stigma, it would be difficult for you to possess that level of Honkai energy."

Although he was reluctant to break the girl's hope, but knowing that it was best to take advantage of the girl's restlessness to let everything settle down, Gwen did not give up, but continued to pursue her relentlessly.

"Moreover, according to the information I have obtained—

Your father, Mr. Raiden Ryoma, took over the task of safeguarding the Conquest Gem held by Anti-Entropy several years ago."

Gwen has made up his mind to talk everything out today, then find an opportunity to shake off Cocolia's surveillance, take Mei away from Changkong City, and directly publish this script.
