Before the collapse of civilization, kiss Mebius at the beginning

The next day.

It was still the same alley.

Unlike the wild and regretful battle last night, when the sun shone here again today, it was surprisingly quiet.

Yes, there was literally no sound at all. The bloated "monster" that had long collapsed was still in the alley, staring at the sky with regret, but most of the people around here were working or staying at home. Even though the huge noise in the alley last night tempted their curiosity all the time, no one dared to stick their heads out to see what was going on here.

Even the white-haired boy and his external brain who had planned to skip class this morning to investigate clues here did not come here.

This place has remained unnoticed... No, there is still one person, the only one. The only one... a woman with an ice-blue sword on her waist, a strange mask, and flying pink hair.

Looking closely, the hideous mask on the face of this tall woman is very similar to the strange face of the "monster" lying dead in the alley, which is gray and white with dangerous purple light. Or... they are the same creature.

"Well, yes, we have found the source of the collapse that broke out in Changkong City last night."

The woman stretched out her slender fingers to press against her earphone and replied,

"It is a humanoid collapse beast that was not recorded in the 'pupa'. Its size and weight did not break the record of the 'pupa', but when I arrived, its collapse energy radiation had reached an astonishing 786hw..."

"786hw??!"

An incredible voice came from the earphone, and then asked the woman,

"Forget-me-not, you should know that there is no benefit for you to fake this matter. The largest collapse beast that the 'pupa' has come into contact with so far does not contain more than 500hw of collapse energy radiation."

"Yes... I didn't lie."

Codenamed "Forget-me-not "The tall woman patiently explained to her superior,

"I know this is a very shocking number, but you can check the equipment on me yourself. I don't need to lie to you about this."

"Wow! It's true!"

Through the link of the equipment, the person on the other side of the headset saw that the words 786hw were indeed displayed on the Honkai energy detector, and his words were full of indescribable excitement, saying,

"Then what are you still standing there for? ! Bring it back quickly!"

Hearing this, the woman frowned slightly under the Honkai beast mask and said:

"Of course, this is my job... But I must tell you that this Honkai beast was not killed by "Forget-me-not", but after I arrived... it had already died here . As for who actually killed it... Sorry, I haven't found any clues about the person who did it at the scene of the incident. "

"Oh? So you mean that you got this mission for nothing?"

The tone of the headset suddenly rose, and the voice on the other side of the headset said in an unclear way,

"In essence, you only provided the last bit of carrying power, and did not really fight... Then the "reward" promised to you before may not be that much."

"...That's not what I meant."

The woman frowned when she heard the voice of her boss in the headset, but there was nothing she could do. A higher-ranking official could crush a person. No matter how dissatisfied the woman was, she couldn't show it directly, so she could only speak patiently,

"I want to tell you, 756hw, I checked the corpse of the Honkai Beast after I arrived today. The indicator reached, and when it was active last night, the peak value was very likely to exceed 1000hw... And such a Houkai beast whose Houkai radiation exceeded the total radiation value of all Houkai beasts previously recorded by 'Pupa' was actually solved quietly...

In other words, the person who solved this Houkai beast must have a more terrifying power than this Houkai beast, and the person who took action even deliberately left the corpse of the Houkai beast here... I suspect there may be a trap. I asked 'Pupa' to block the streets of Changkong City, and after further investigation, try to move the corpse of the Houkai beast. "

"Block the entire streets of Changkong City?"

Hearing this, the person on the other end of the headset seemed a little angry and scolded,

"Are you kidding? Forget-me-not, you know Changkong

What kind of metropolis is Kong City? Do you know how much it will cost me to block a place? "

"Yes... But among all the people I can contact now, you are the only one who has the power to block a city in a short period of time."

The woman said in a serious tone,

"I need to emphasize to you again that the collapse beast that appeared this time is not terrible, but the person who solves it is terrible... Based on my intuition, I really sincerely suggest that you block the streets of Changkong City now until the person who took action reveals his feet... I believe that this process will not be long, and once the other party reveals his feet first, I have the hope to arrest him directly and eliminate the possibility of any unexpected outbreak. "

"Hiss~..."

The person on the other side of the headset took a long breath, suddenly laughed, and said,

"Forget me not... You are making it difficult for me. What do you mean by 'based on your intuition'? 'You believe'? 'There is hope'? Are you using such ambiguous words to fool your boss? I see that you are too nervous recently. Let me ask you, who are we? We are the poisonous 'pupa' under the 'moth' of chasing fire. How could there be a force stronger than us in this world?

I think, even if the person who killed the Honkai beast is really powerful, he must be afraid of the power of our 'pupa'. Otherwise, he would not have just thrown the corpse of the Honkai beast there, right? You should know that the blood and flesh samples of this thing are secretly offered by all the organizations in the world at a sky-high price. Even the doctors in our company have been fighting for a little bit of the blood and flesh samples of the Honkai beast. "

"But! ..."

"There is nothing to but, Forget-me-not, please put yourself in a correct attitude. You are the sharpest knife of the 'pupa', but it is just a knife. And I am your superior, and I have to take the overall situation into consideration when I act. I can't use my power because of your words. I can indeed bear the cost of blocking Changkong City, but it is unnecessary.

Again, Forget-me-not, you are just too nervous... Let's put it this way, you are in Changkong City now, right? Once you transport the corpse of the Honkai beast to the old place, you don't have to worry about it. I will consider this mission as a successful completion.

As for the reward... there is definitely no reward, after all, you didn't kill the Honkai beast. However! I can approve the vacation you applied for last time. Don't you also want to visit your sister who is studying in Changkong City? After the Honkai beast is transported to the old place, you can go directly there. Just treat it as a reward from your superiors, and rest your anxious little head. Don't take your "intuition" too seriously. "

"No, you..."

"Beep, beep..."

Before the woman could even open her mouth, the headset was disconnected.

And judging from the numb expression under the woman's terrifying mask of the Honkai Beast, this was obviously not the first time.

Before, the woman had always chosen to compromise, and this time...maybe it was no exception.

Looking at the horrible dead Honkai Beast in her field of vision, the woman really couldn't imagine what kind of power the other party had to kill a Honkai Beast of this level in a short time.

Forget it...so be it, at least this mission is not directly dangerous, and after transporting the body of the Honkai Beast, I can go directly to see Ling. She said she wanted to go to the park last time...well, today happens to be Saturday, it seems that she can catch up with her holiday.

"Ding Ding Ding!"

However, at this time, the headset did receive another communication sound, and the woman frowned slightly and chose to connect.

"Ah~ Sorry...Forget-me-not, I forgot to tell you just now. But since you are going on vacation, before you leave, you can "clean up" the people in your area who are exposed to Honkai radiation. It won't be a small number, but you should be able to handle it before dark. Just use the methods you use most often, don't let me down. "

"You actually think that hiring others to do these things will cost more..."

Under the mask, Ying couldn't help but muttered.

"Huh? What did you say?"

"Nothing... Codename Forget-me-not, I have accepted the mission and will immediately "clean up" the nearby streets."

"Very good, then let me wait for your good news. Remember to come back the day after tomorrow to report, the work here is not as easy as you look. ”

“…”

The hidden communication in the headset was disconnected. Ying looked at the huge Honkai beast in her field of vision, then looked at the ice-blue sword on her waist, and sighed helplessly.

If possible, who would be willing to do the job of "cleaning up" the infected? This job is bloody, cruel, and hard to describe... Unfortunately, the person named "Ying

"After the woman understood this, she had already fallen into the boundless darkness and embarked on a road that was doomed to no return. All she could do was to prevent her sister, who was still studying at Qianyu Academy, from being exposed to darkness and having a relatively peaceful and beautiful life. That's all.

After thinking for a while, Ying slowly drew out the ice-blue sword at her waist and whispered:

"Sorry, I'm sorry..."

This seemed to be said to Ying herself, and to every resident here and nearby.

...

After a while.

Sakura, who drew her sword and looked around in confusion, fell into a layer of [suspicion].

No...it shouldn't be. The four-digit Honkai energy radiation, even if it naturally degraded to 786hw this morning...it should have radiated at least hundreds of people if it was left in this alley for a whole night. Why...why do all the residents living nearby look fine?

In addition to receiving benefits After promising to keep the violent vibrations they felt last night a secret, the residents near this alley showed almost no discomfort, which was completely different from the symptoms of ordinary people exposed to Honkai energy radiation...

In the past, Ying always gave relief to her targets when they were in pain. And ordinary people who were exposed to the thousand-level Honkai energy radiation for a whole night would become miserable as time went by.

But the current situation... you call the situation of people going out to buy vegetables and playing games at home miserable? ? ?

Why?

Ying was puzzled.

Even if there were very few people who had a natural resistance to Honkai energy, such as herself... but why were all the people in the entire community fine? Could it be that the residents here were all poisonous pupa professional killers with extremely high resistance to Honkai energy?

After a moment of thinking, Ying accidentally caught a glimpse of a little pink from the huge Honkai beast corpse in the alley.

"Hmm? "

Yakura frowned slightly and quickly stepped forward to check.

I saw that in the chest of this Honkai beast, a broken black crystal-like object was scattered there, just like... like an incomplete core. After condensing more than 99% of the Honkai energy of this Honkai beast, due to some key missing, this "core" lacked the most important piece of the puzzle, and then collapsed across the board, making this core that should have mastered [Power] become a Honkai energy battery that only knows how to shrink Honkai energy.

But this is obviously not the point.

The point is that outside this decaying core, a pink crystal flower is quietly falling. The halo emitted by the crystal flower gathers the last 1% of the Honkai energy, and gathers all the Honkai energy contained in this unprecedentedly powerful Honkai beast into the decaying core, and then there is no There is no way to make even one innocent person end his life in incomparable pain due to Honkai radiation.

However, after a moment, it seemed that the keyword "pink crystal flower" was also very iconic inside the Fire Chaser Moth. Sakura blinked, and the pink halo changed from a beautiful crystal flower to an ordinary sphere, wrapping the dark decaying core inside, and playing the role of beauty and isolation.

What is this thing...? It can even perfectly isolate Honkai energy?

Looking at the core wrapped in pink in the monster's chest, Sakura inevitably thought.

At the same time, she became more and more curious about what happened here last night.

...

"So... when I was fighting that monster last night, you were actually next to me?"

At the same time, in the research institute,

Xu Ziling, who had revoked DNA mimicry and turned back to blonde and blue-eyed, asked Alysia,

"Don't you object to my sudden bad taste when I was facing that monster? ”

“What are you talking about… Ai Li doesn’t know♪~”

Alicia blinked playfully, then smiled and said,

“Last night, poor fairy lady was locked in the room by Dr. Mobius! How could she get out! I just felt through the fairy’s magic that an area nearby was about to face danger, so I… shot an arrow at that place. And then nothing happened♪~”

Shot an arrow…

Xu Ziling seemed to be thinking about something, then looked up at Ai Lixia and asked again,

“Really?”

“Of course it’s true!”

Alicia nodded seriously, then pushed Xu Ziling’s body, half-jokingly,

“Oh~ Don’t worry about so many details, kid Ziling, don’t stand there stupidly, Dr. Mobius and

The classmate you kidnapped... no, the classmate who came back with you is about to wake up, right? Go make them a cup of hot coffee to help them wake up~"
