Honkai, why do you only play high-end games?

"A secret organization? Do you mean Anti-Entropy?"

In her opinion, aren't there only two organizations in the world?

"Of course it's not Anti-Entropy. After all, my previous mission was to lurk in Anti-Entropy and gather intelligence for the Bishop."

Lin Wei smiled bitterly and said,

"As for this suddenly appearing 'secret organization', He Kun had never heard of it before in Anti-Entropy... But since the Bishop attaches so much importance to it, there must be a reason for it."

It has to be said that the offer sent by Bishop Otto himself was very useful. It saved Lin Wei a lot of effort, and Youlan Dale basically believed his words easily.

"The Bishop sent me a message not long ago, telling me that the mission target has the ability to create and control large Honkai beasts."

Seeing the other party's sincerity, Youlan Dell also shared the news he had just received. After all, it was not confidential information.

"The bishop also mentioned in the letter that a cat-shaped Honkai Beast has been spotted, and it's suspected to have the ability to shrink. It's likely hiding in this city with its controller. He told me to be gentle if I encounter it... and to promptly report the situation to him."

When Yulan Dell said this, his expression was a little unnatural, as if he didn't understand Otto's thoughts.

"Cat-shaped Honkai Beast?"

Lin Wei's heart skipped a beat. He looked at Youlan Dell with a strange expression and asked tentatively,

"Then just now..."

The thing Otto was talking about was clearly in your arms just now, didn't you notice anything?

Can't you?

Where is the sharpness and caution you showed when you asked me the question just now?

Lin Wei felt mixed emotions. He found himself hoping that Youlan Dell could find something.

At least this way, you can make me feel better...

"What are you thinking about, Mr. He Kun?"

Unfortunately, Orchiddale disappointed Lin Wei.

"Houkaimon is Houkaimon. Even if it looks like a cat, how can its energy response and body structure really be a cat?"

"..."

After Lin Wei thought about it for a moment, he found this explanation to be reasonable.

After all, in the original world line, when the two gray snakes merged into Ashbo in Haiyuan City,

At least before they injected themselves with the transformation potion, neither their physical appearance nor the already advanced energy detection system found anything abnormal in them.

It was precisely because of this that Anti-Entropy and the Far East Branch were caught off guard by their sudden transformation.

Since the World Serpent possesses such sophisticated technology, it is not surprising that it is used on a cat.

Lin Wei asked worriedly,

"So, Lord Youlan Dale also thought that cat just now was just an ordinary cat, right?"

"Maybe not too ordinary?"

Youlan Dale thought about it, recalled the scenes of the two encounters, and laughed.

"It seems to be very naughty and might bite other people's pets to death. But it's also very energetic and seems to have a bad temper. But overall, it's quite likable..."

"..."

Lin Wei looked at her expression that didn't seem fake and sighed sincerely,

"After the mission is over, I'll give you a cat as a pet..."

"After the mission is over?"

Youlan Dale thought about it, but didn't refuse the other party's kindness. He smiled.

"Okay, thank you for your kindness."

After chatting for a while, the two waved goodbye.

"The mighty Orchiddale has such an interesting side? It's truly eye-opening..."

After they separated, Lin Wei walked away, not knowing what he was thinking.

Yaezakura remained silent until Lin Wei's eyes regained focus and she seemed to have come back to her senses. Then she gently asked,

"What should we do next?"

"Next? Do nothing!"

Lin Wei smiled lightly.

"But we can go visit Ms. Jackal again. I hope the little gift I just gave her can give her a little surprise..."

Chapter 115: The Unlucky Jackal (5,000 words)

"Why are you back?"

At the other end of the underground passage, the Jackal, who was carefully making the final adjustments to the "trap" he had carefully prepared, was suddenly reported by the humanoid machine that Stan had returned to the laboratory.

"Oh? The little guy is still very capable!"

When the jackal heard the news, he immediately put down his work and hurried back to his laboratory with a joy similar to "harvest". However, he only saw the kitten squatting quietly on the dim floor of the laboratory, looking up at him eagerly.

"Meow."

The jackal looked around and confirmed that there was nothing here. He frowned and asked in a deep voice with a feeling of being teased.

"Why are you the only one back?"

"Meow……"

Stan lowered his body, his ears drooped slightly, and his fluffy tail curled up with his body, looking as if he had admitted his mistake.

In fact, Stan felt very aggrieved. He didn't understand why he became like that. Just by being stared at by that man, he was frightened and ran away in a panic?

"you!"

The jackal did not squat down and stroke the pet like a normal owner would do to comfort a wronged pet. Instead, he was very angry at the pet's behavior and scolded it condescendingly.

"Useless guy! Humph, if I had known earlier, I should have transformed you into a machine that only obeys orders, just like those humanoid creations!"

"Meow!"

Stan was so frightened that he trembled all over, and he didn't understand why his master was so angry.

The humanoid machine not far away couldn't help but look over here, as if it was stimulated by some of the nouns said by the master, but in the end it didn't make any sound.

The jackal turned a blind eye to these little things, just took a deep breath, suppressed his dissatisfaction, took graceful steps, walked to Stan's side, bent down gently, hesitated for a moment, and reluctantly stroked the frightened kitten a few times.

As a die-hard fan of ancient Egyptian culture, the jackal still has some special feelings towards creatures like "cats".

However, the jackal's touch was a little unfamiliar and perfunctory, which reminded Stan of the blonde girl's arms and made him feel even more depressed.

Stan knew that the Jackal was being "nice" to him because he was valuable and worth using.

Originally, it didn't think there was anything wrong with this. After all, as a stray cat, Stan had long understood the cruelty of survival.

So, when it walked out of the Jackal's laboratory amidst mountains of corpses and seas of blood, it had already accepted the Jackal as its somewhat cold master, and actively cooperated with her experiments and transformations, step by step to where it is today, becoming what she calls "her most proud creation."

Stan originally thought that he would like his new life more. He no longer had to fight with groups of stray dogs in the garbage dump just to fight for a piece of leftover food crawling with flies and maggots. He could even crush them to death like insects if he wanted to.

But after meeting the blonde girl, her smile filled with pure love and gentle touch made it vaguely remember the simple and happy time before it became a stray cat, when it could play freely.

It felt inexplicably regretful. If she had picked it up, would it have been possible for it to live a different life?

Thinking of this, Stan shook his head vigorously, getting rid of all these thoughts.

It was originally a very smart cat, and after the transformation it became even smarter.

Stan knew that he would only bring trouble and danger to her now, so he silently made up his mind to never appear next to the kind and cheerful blonde girl again.

"At least, don't hurt her..."

Cats' thoughts are always simple.

After making up his mind, Stan's mood became even more depressed. He spread out his delicate front legs and lay down quietly, looking a little hurt.

"Huh? It was fine just now, what happened now?"

The Jackal saw Stan's listless appearance clearly and felt strange.

"Is it the mating season?"

The jackal thought about it again and again, and came to this possible conclusion. He couldn't help but feel angry again.

"You bastard, I should have castrated you right away!"

Stan shuddered with fear, and a chill ran down his hind legs.

The jackal didn't intend to waste time with it. He rubbed it a few times symbolically, then reached out to pull the small black collar around its neck, ready to read the data directly from it, muttering to himself,

"Let me see what you have been doing while you were away..."

"Meow!"

The moment the jackal reached out and touched the collar, Stan's hair suddenly stood up all over his body, as if a bomb had exploded in his stomach. Then he broke free from the jackal's hands, jumped high, and prepared to run as far away as possible.

Although it didn't understand why, its instinct told it that something dangerous was going to happen next!

"What did you say again..."

Before the Jackal could even utter the word "crazy", he was blown away by the violent blast of air from Stan who was leaping in the air, knocking over a test bench heavily and then smashing hard against a solid wall.

I can only say that fortunately the jackal was relatively light, so it flew relatively high and was not hit by anything like tables, chairs, benches, or test benches.

But unfortunately, the jackal couldn't fly, and she would eventually fall back to the ground.

"Oh!"

The jackal, nearly knocked unconscious by the impact, fell from the wall and landed heavily on a pile of even more solid debris, letting out only a painful whimper.

But fortunately, she also avoided the small debris that were still flying everywhere - as everyone knew, there was no shortage of sharp knives and other dangerous items in the Jackal's laboratory.

The protective power of the clothes she wore was indeed outstanding, helping her to resist most of the damage during the process, and her story did not end there.

………………

on the ground.

Still in the university library not far from the Jackal Laboratory, Lin Wei gently turned a page of the book in his hand and felt the unmistakable vibration transmitted from the floor beneath his feet. Lin Wei, understanding the meaning of this feeling, could not help but smile with interest.

"here we go……"

The tremors were very clear, and some students who were quick to react shouted, "Earthquake!"

The students, who had been quietly minding their own business, couldn't help but get a commotion when they heard the sound. Seeing the clear ripples in the water cup on the table, they couldn't help but look at each other, and then hurriedly fled outside without bothering to take anything.

"Tap tap tap tap tap..."

The sound of hurried footsteps came from all directions, including the sound of female screams. Of course, there were also brave students who stood up to maintain order.

"Don't make a mess, don't push!"

At this point, the library naturally could no longer maintain its usual silence, but Lin Wei still sat in his seat calmly, ready to continue reading the book in his hand.

A student who ran down from a higher floor happened to pass by Lin Wei. Seeing Lin Wei still sitting there like a statue, he was stunned for a moment.

Then he grabbed Lin Wei's feet and dragged him out without stopping, shouting angrily,

"Don't pretend to be a good student right now! Don't you know there's an earthquake? Are you trying to save your life?! No teacher will give you extra credit just for pretending to be cool at this critical moment!"

"Uh, thank you classmate..."

Lin Wei was at a loss for words, but she couldn't refuse his kindness, so she stood up and followed him out.

"Don't take the book!"

The student was hot-blooded after all, and seemed to dislike Lin Wei's pretentious behavior. He didn't bother to talk to him at all, and snatched the book from Lin Wei's hand, swung it with one hand, and threw it on a desk that happened to pass by. However, he also happened to glance at the contents of the book, and couldn't help but get more angry and cursed.

"You're [Civilized Language], right? What the hell are you doing here reading the graduate admissions brochure?!"

Lin Wei laughed awkwardly.

"Didn't the new Dr. Cleo say he was going to recruit some students? I just wanted to learn a little bit and see if I have a chance."

"Forget it! Dr. Cleo is a leading figure in the medical field. Not only is there no cap on the research funding for her projects, but her students also have the opportunity to intern abroad."

The student seemed to know a lot, and while running, he said with disdain,
