Collapse, I am actually in the villain camp

"Are you worried about her?"

A gentle male voice suddenly sounded, and Kevin turned his head to look at the man who spoke. He neither nodded nor denied, just stared at him.

"It's really frustrating to feel like someone you know well suddenly becomes a stranger."

After hearing the man's comfort, Kevin not only did not feel relieved, but his expression became even more serious.

How did the other party know that he and Himiko were familiar with each other?

Just as this question lingered in his mind, Li Wen's voice rang out again, "Haha, don't be nervous. I just observed it from your expression. Has anyone ever told you that you are not good at hiding your thoughts?"

Li Wen smiled faintly. To be honest, Kevin at this time was very different from the Kevin he knew.

The difference is so great that it is hard to imagine how Kevin became what he is today.

After hearing Li Wen's words, Kevin was silent for a long time before he slowly said, "...I will fulfill my duties."

Does that mean that no matter how familiar he is with Himiko, he will not let her go just because of this... Li Wen understood the meaning in the other party's words.

He chuckled and spoke again: "Perhaps the situation is much better than you think."

"...I hope so." Kevin echoed.

In any case, now that Himiko has been subdued, Mei and the others have much more room to maneuver.

Maybe Mei will have a way to cure Himiko.

After all, no matter what kind of difficulties she faces, she can always find a way.

Thinking of this, Kevin's anxious heart relaxed a little.

Li Wen was also looking forward to seeing what changes would happen to the Herrscher of Flame in the hands of the Fire Moth, so that he could successfully complete the trial and return to the original world as soon as possible.

So, after a long flight, the transport ship finally arrived at the headquarters of "Fire Moth" in the anticipation of both parties.

As Kevin walked down from the transport ship, Li Wen and Kiana looked at the "Fire Moth" base in front of them.

Compared to the last time they came here, the appearance of this base has changed a lot.

If the previous "Fire Moth" headquarters was like a base for protection, then the current appearance is more like a war fortress born to annihilate the Honkai.

Without observing the base for too long, they walked towards the interior of the base under Kevin's leadership.

It seemed that Kevin's notice had been received, and everyone in the base was on high alert, ready to deal with any possible accidents at any time.

In this way, after passing many armed soldiers along the way, they finally arrived at the door of a laboratory.

Li Wen recognized this place. In the last experiment, he had personally handed the Ruler of Death to the "Fire-Chasing Moth" here.

The door opened and several people walked in. Many scientific researchers, led by Dr. Mei, were already prepared here.

In addition, Alicia, Ying, Hen, Kosmo and others, whom Li Wen and Kiana had met, were also waiting in the laboratory as security personnel.

Although they have not yet undergone the transformation into fusion warriors, in terms of strength, no one in the entire "Fire Moth" can defeat them except Kevin.

Therefore, Mei could rest assured that they would be responsible for security during the next experiments.

"Welcome both of you."

Dr. Mei greeted Li Wen and Kiana.

Chapter 15: Second Trial, Completed

It was the familiar polite words again.

After some communication, Li Wen directly handed the Herrscher of Flame to the other party.

Although it encountered strong resistance from the Herrscher of Fire during the process, under Li Wen's suppression, the "Fire Moth" still successfully injected the opponent with a potion that diluted the Honkai energy.

Frankly speaking, in Li Wen's opinion, although the potion used by the other party is very effective, it also has obvious problems. It causes great damage to the Herrscher's body and is not as mild as the HSN-b46 serum.

Moreover, after controlling the Herrscher of Fire with potions, they connected many devices to her body.

Li Wen made a rough judgment based on his knowledge and concluded that those devices should be used to extract the Honkai energy from the Herrscher of Fire to prevent him from recovering his mobility later.

Although a lot of arrangements had been made, Mei seemed to want to prevent any accidents and simply held the conversation in this laboratory.

In this way, if an accident really happens, not only can many soldiers assist the experimenters, but Li Wen, who personally subdued the Herrscher of Fire, can also lend a hand.

Li Wen naturally had no intention of refusing Dr. Mei's request.

In his opinion, ensuring the smooth progress of the "Fire Moth" plan is the key to completing his trial.

Therefore, at this moment, he doesn't mind providing some help to the other party to ensure that he achieves his goal.

In order to make the other party's plan go more smoothly, he even took the initiative to offer to help the other party make relevant potions.

Although the "God-killing Spear" cannot be crafted due to the lack of Shaniyat's Holy Blood, as far as the current situation is concerned, the HSN-b46 serum is sufficient for the use of the "Fire Moth".

"Then I'll trouble you, Mr. Li Wen." After hearing Li Wen's words, Dr. Mei was surprised at first, and then he directly agreed to the other party's help.

After all, if there really was any problem with the experiment, she and Mebius would be able to discover it immediately, so she had nothing to worry about.

"Blake, it's up to you from now on." After getting Mei's consent, Li Wen turned his gaze directly to Blake who was nestled in Kiana's arms.

As for the "God-killing Gun" and HSN-b46 serum, his understanding was limited to their functions and how to use them. For more professional knowledge, he still needed guidance from Blake, who had studied in the Helheim laboratory.

Hearing Li Wen's call, Blake yawned lazily, then shook his body vigorously, and then jumped out of Kiana's arms, "Leave it to me, meow."

"Oh, a talking cat!" Alicia looked at Blake who suddenly spoke, and immediately showed a look of surprise.

"Who should I help, meow?" Blake raised his paw and asked Dr. May.

Dr. Mei turned his head and looked at the woman at the laboratory table. "Dr. Mobius, I'm going to trouble you next."

"Tsk, alright." Mebius nodded reluctantly.

To be honest, she was not very optimistic about the technology the other party mentioned. After all, geniuses also have their arrogance, and she did not think that a cat could guide her.

Compared to this, she would rather study Black carefully. After all, this was the first time she saw a talking cat.

Looking at Mobius' rather deep eyes, Blake couldn't help but shudder. It felt like he was being stared at by a snake ready to hunt at any time.

However, Mebius quickly withdrew his gaze and moved to the front of the experimental table. "Tell me, what materials do you need?"

Seeing that the other party was ready, Blake quickly came to the experimental table at Li Wen's signal.

When he arrived at the laboratory table, Blake's golden eyes quickly fell on the many test tubes and materials on the table in front of him.

"If this isn't enough, just keep telling me what you need." Mebius then placed something resembling a tablet in front of Blake.

"Okay, meow." Blake immediately began to check the materials he needed.

Although the "Fire Moth" has a large storage of various materials and research tools related to Honkai, it does not have some of the materials for synthesis and extraction, so it can only make them immediately according to Blake's requirements.

Moreover, there are some materials that are named differently by the previous civilization and the current civilization. Blake can only judge them by appearance, smell, utility, etc. to determine whether they are the materials he needs.

So, the delay was a bit longer.

During this period, Li Wen and Kiana were also chatting with Dr. Mei.

During this period, although Dr. Mei tried to inquire about the two's purpose many times, Li Wen easily evaded them.

Seeing that no progress could be made in this regard, Dr. Mei turned the topic to the HSN-b46 serum that Li Wen had mentioned earlier, hoping to use it to spy on the research progress of Li Wen and Kiana's organization on Honkai.

After all, it would be a lie for her to say she wasn't curious about the two people who were able to easily subdue Himiko, who had become the Herrscher of Fire.

You know, even if the "Fire Moth" was able to defeat the Herrschers one by one in the past, it also paid a huge price.

It was not until Kevin completed the fusion warrior surgery that was only successful in theory that "Fire Moth" had the combat power to face the Herrscher head-on.

The fact that these two people could defeat each other so easily really made her curious and shocked.

If possible, she not only wants to have a technical exchange with the other party, but also wants "Fire Moth" to achieve real cooperation with the other party's mysterious organization.

After all, in the face of the common enemy, Honkai, only when the power of all humanity is combined together can we see the possibility of completely defeating the enemy.

Therefore, as both sides communicated with each other with their own purposes, the atmosphere in the entire laboratory was very harmonious.

Finally, under Blake's guidance, the production of HSN-b46 serum was completed.

Everyone turned their attention to the tube of serum held in Mebius's hand.

Next, whether the topic of conversation between the two sides will continue to be pleasant depends on whether this tube of serum is really as effective as Li Wen said.

Although during the process of making this serum, Mebius gradually withdrew her contemptuous gaze and recognized the theoretical feasibility of this so-called serum, the specific effect still needed to be actually used on the Herrscher of Fire before she could confirm whether it was really effective.

After all, there is still a certain gap between theory and reality.

With this thought in mind, Mebius stabbed the Herrscher of Fire, who was unable to resist, with the syringe and injected the serum into his body.

After injecting the serum, she immediately came to the operating table and began to observe the changes in various indicators of the Herrscher of Fire.

This is a task that takes considerable time to complete. After all, although some special medicines can quickly relieve "symptoms", the various impacts they bring cannot be ignored.

She needed to make sure that this serum really had no side effects as Li Wen said.

In this way, time passed minute by minute. After a long time, she still did not find any abnormal changes, and the serum was indeed clearing the Honkai energy in the Herrscher of Flame's body without damaging his body.

Only then did she announce the specific situation to Dr. Mei in a somewhat incredible manner, "No problem."

Hearing this, Dr. Mei breathed a sigh of relief and smiled at Li Wen and Kiana. "Thank you very much for your assistance, Mr. Li Wen, Ms. Kiana."

"Do not……"

Li Wen was about to shake his head, but he found that the familiar water waves were rippling again.

[The second trial is completed.]

[Congratulations to the host for receiving the reward, "Fragment of the World's Origin"*1.]

Chapter 16 Memetic Weapons

"finished……"

While Li Wen was observing the surrounding environment, he was carefully experiencing the changes in himself after absorbing the "fragments of the origin of the world."

"So... as long as we hand the Herrscher over to them and help them achieve their goals, we can pass the so-called 'Trial'?"

Quickly coming to her senses and taking in her surroundings, Kiana realized they had already completed the previous trial.

"From the current perspective, it should be." Li Wen nodded.

At least, the completion of both trials was that they finally handed the Herrscher over to the "Fire Moth".

Therefore, after confirming that he had arrived in a new trial environment, he planned to continue doing so.

"but……"

He glanced at the surrounding steel walls and asked, "Are we in their base?"

He wasn't sure.

Although the style here is very similar to that of the "Fire Moth" base, he still needs certain information to determine his location.

Only by knowing the approximate location could he judge which Herrscher he would be facing this time.

According to the previous order of the sixth and seventh Herrschers, he might have to face the eighth Herrscher this time, and the current environment also perfectly matched the historical records of the eighth Herrscher. However, in order to prevent himself from making a wrong judgment, he still needed to confirm it again.

So, he turned his gaze to Blake beside him and threw a device directly to him, "Help me connect to the communication network here. Remember, once connected, give it to me and don't check any information."

Although he was still unsure whether the person he was about to face was the Eighth Herrscher, because the other party's ability was a memetic weapon, he did not dare to let Blake rashly come into contact with the other party, for fear that Blake would be hurt.

As for himself, although he was not very good at the field of consciousness, he was confident that a mere Eighth Herrscher could not defeat his consciousness.

Hearing Li Wen's instructions, Blake nodded very seriously.

It also understood that Li Wen would never speak without a purpose, and the other party must have his own reasons for saying this.

Therefore, it began to connect to the Fire Moth base network very cautiously.

However, something surprising happened.

The Fire Moth's network was easily invaded by it, and it did not encounter any obstacles.

The whole process seemed to be as natural as a natural progression.
