Beng San, I have an unfinished date with her

"Hmm, you are indeed my niece, Cecilia's daughter Kiana Kaslana!" One of the white-haired dumplings expressed surprise at Kiana when several other white-haired dumplings When he looked at her with praise, he suddenly stood up and held his arms in his arms, saying quite proudly.

Cecilia came over carrying a bucket of sea water and smiled: "Theresa, you are not so exaggerated, come here."

"Thank you~" Theresa said, taking the bucket handed by Cecilia: "And is there any exaggeration~? If you don't believe it, ask Aili and Long, Kiana is really smart and cute."

Alicia's beautiful voice came from the video shooting angle: "That's right, Kiana is just as smart and cute as I was when I was a child~"

Cecilia chuckled and said, "Kiana, Aunt Ellie is praising you."

"Oh? Thank you for your compliment, Aunt Ellie. Kiana will continue to work hard!" Although Kiana didn't realize that the three adults were talking about something clever and cute.But she understands that, as her parents taught her, if she is praised by others, she must express her gratitude!

"Stop!" The video that everyone was watching stopped temporarily.

Everyone looked at Mei who was giving instructions to the house's broadcast system.

Everyone still remembers what Ellie asked just now [Have you seen something?], and it seems that Mei has already discovered it.

Mebius already knew about it, so he didn't think it was anything. She even appeared in the photos and videos played before.After all, she didn't just stay motionless in this laboratory. She would still look for them occasionally, or be visited by Aili and the others.

Mei pushed up her glasses. She easily captured the information revealed in the video and said accurately: "Kiana Kaslana, Ellie?"

"Well, that's right."

"..." Mei's expression changed several times.

Finally, she exhaled and turned into a relieved and peaceful smile. Instead, she laughed: "Fortunately, there was no mistake in the design of the gene fragment, and my congenital high myopia was not inherited."

"Tch, are you looking down on Dr. Mebius' craftsmanship?" Mebius put down her wine glass and said with a slight dissatisfaction. She was not really dissatisfied, it was just a way of expressing laughter to her friends.

"Haha, of course not. Dr. Mebius' biotechnology is naturally the best in the world."

"Hmph~ It's good to know."

After saying this, everyone who knew or didn't know now understood what Mei meant.

Velvet looked at the little Kiana curiously and carefully: "So, it's the offspring of you and Kevin's genetically engineered child... It's a pity that I couldn't go back and didn't know about it at all."

"Don't you know now? I could have continued but it's a pity." Mei said this while stroking the hair beside her ear, but with one sentence she inadvertently silenced Velvet.

Except for Alicia and Eden, no one noticed it. After all, Velvet had been very shy since arriving here and didn't say anything.Everyone was very considerate and felt that this was the original character of Velvet, so don’t push her too hard.

So I didn't pay any attention to Velvet on purpose.

But Alicia moved closer to Velvet and sniffed her face carefully.

Faced with Velvet's shy and confused look, Alicia looked at Velvet's spiral eyes with strange colors, smiled mysteriously, and leaned towards Mei without saying anything.

Velvet felt a mixture of fear and shyness intertwined in her heart...

Mei continued to watch the video and found other questions, and asked Alicia: "Ally, I found that the girl named Theresa is about the same age as your and Long's daughter... but she Calling Kiana your niece? And it doesn’t look like she is a different generation from that Cecilia.”

"And her terms also have the meaning of elders to the four children."

"She is so similar to the four children... They are not ordinary people, are they?"

After Mei finished speaking, she stopped stroking her chin, waiting for Ai Li's answer.

"Your guess is correct, Mei, but without key information, even Mei can't guess right in one step, so let me fill in the complete information for you to clear up your confusion!"

"Haha~ Okay Ellie."

Ai Li cleared her throat and said, "First of all, these four daughters of mine, like Theresa, are the experimental products of the leader of an organization called [Destiny]."

"And the source of their genes is a woman named Kallen Kaslana more than 500 years ago."

"Alone?" Mei asked.

"In short, it's the genes of Mei and Kevin's offspring."

"Kaslana was one of the three major families that formed the organization in the past. However, with the development, Kaslana and the other family Shaniyat no longer hold a dominant position in the organization."

"The white-haired man chatting with Long is called Siegfried Kaslana. He is the head of Kaslana's family in this generation. However, something happened a few months ago... He has been removed from the list by destiny. .”

"And that woman is called Cecilia Shaniat, and she is Siegfried's wife... Some time ago, as a [affiliator], something happened to her and she lost her body. She is a miserable mandarin duck..."

"And, Shaniyat, you must remember May."

Mei nodded and said with self-blame in her tone: "Well...actually, at that time...oh-"

"I'm sorry Alicia. I used your genetic information without your and Long's consent. I also sought medical treatment in a hurry. According to Mebius's research on Long, I wanted to leave nothing for future generations. Since then, Takashi has been unconscious... unable to obtain his consent."

Alicia hugged Mei, kept shaking her and comforted her: "It's okay, or Mei, you did a great job and fulfilled one of my wishes~~~ A woman is willing to have a child for a man! This is my small apology for not being able to devote myself to Long in the past..."

"Besides, Longko was in a coma for more than 5 years before he recovered. He only woke up seven years ago. How could you possibly obtain his consent?"

"..."

"Thank you for your comfort... Alicia, you are always so considerate of others." Mei also raised her hand and hugged Alicia to express her feelings.

These two pairs of men and women, four people... have similar psychological journeys.

They understand each other.

Like a reflection.

They even chose to do what the other person would do.

...maybe three versus six.

One can't help but wonder if it's a curse coming from the bloodline of the four of their ancestors, why are they all so miserable.

After the two separated, Mei asked again: "Then, what happened to Destiny's leader, Theresa and Kallen?" She just finished speaking but immediately answered to herself: "I can already roughly guess why. ...That’s why Long successfully did it.”

"Well...that man, called Otto Apocalypse, has lived for more than 500 years. He led the destiny to fight against the Honkai Impact, discovered the technology we left behind, and awakened as an [Affiliator] some time ago... He did a lot of good things and a lot of wrong things.”

"By the way, his mother is a member of the Shaniyat family. Kaslana, Shaniyat, and Apokalis jointly established the Destiny, and are known as the three major Destiny families. Over the years, mixed blood is inevitable. Many members of the three major families may still possess the ancestral genes related to the four of us, which have long been mixed and difficult to distinguish completely."

Mei blinked and looked at the little Kiana in surprise: "Then...this child's future is limitless. You and Long, me and Kevin...if she activates all these latent genes, Come out, possess the power of Kaslana and become an [affiliator] at the same time, my God!”

"It's simply...for this world, if Kevin and Long don't take action, they will be like saviors."

Alicia smiled and said: "Yes, so I said it was okay for Mei not to get Long's opinion at the beginning, and she did a good job. Shaniat and Kaslana have guarded the world for a long time and have taken on the responsibility of protecting the world. Take up the important responsibility that comes from their blood."

"They are well-done offspring."

Mei nodded repeatedly, and she agreed.

So she immediately asked another thing she wanted to know: "During that long period of time, Kaslana, Shaniat, and more people, did they all show their stigmata?"

Change comes quietly: 175. The playful crowd, the unconcerned image

"Well...um..." Alicia thought for a moment and said, "I don't know much about this, but according to what Long learned from the Destiny Records, the Kaslana family should have been There are many warriors who have entered places similar to the stigmata space, but I don’t know if all of them have awakened the stigmata. Judging from the performance, some personnel should have successfully awakened the stigmata.”

"In the Shaniyat family, because Long's power exists in their blood and souls, no one has awakened the stigmata. However, that is because Long has not awakened, so the power has not been stimulated, and he has only maintained his final strength. The order given by Long, so the people of the Shaniyat family have always been in a situation - they can use part of the power to bring about the characteristics of [order given by Long], but they cannot produce [affiliators]."

"Within Destiny, they have completely regarded the Shaniyat family's ability as the kind of [Honkai adaptability and resistance to Honkai] that is only represented by Long's power characteristics. And the Shaniyat family is regarded by Mei and you As for the modulated stigma gene, I guess the gene expression has been suppressed."

"With Long's awakening and the liberation of power, more authority to issue orders will be given to Shaniyat family members. The expression of their stigmata genes should no longer be suppressed, and they will be stimulated to awaken quickly. However, destiny There are records of many people who have awakened their innate stigmata over the past thousands of years. Let me give you one."

As Alicia lit the light in front of her, without seeing what she did, the information was transmitted to the entire underground base, and the artificial intelligence system in the underground laboratory came to Mei through virtual imaging.

"Okay, please, Ellie." Mei said and wanted to click on the file to check.

"Hey~ Are you going to work so soon, Mei?"

Mei was stunned for a moment and felt that this was really not a good idea. She quickly waved her hand to eliminate the virtual screen, adjusted her glasses and said apologetically: "Sorry, Ellie, my thirst for knowledge is a bit strong. How about we continue to look at your interesting records? (oдo)”

She didn't want to refute Ellie's interest, or no one here wanted to...

What Alicia has done for them is enough for them to endure even more extreme pranks, and the extreme ones are even willing to exchange their own lives, let alone this small cocktail party to exchange friendship?

...

Because of this, Velvet felt even more guilty and silently took another sip of the wine in the glass.

And when Alicia said: "No one has come out for so long, I'm going to see what's wrong with Long, wait a minute, everyone~" After leaving, she felt a little panic for a moment, and her suspicious mood even made her feel love. Li turned her head and looked at herself...

This panic that she could not hide as a primitive person was immediately seen by several people present.

Mebius put down his wine glass with interest and came to her side, which was between Mei and Velvet where Alicia was sitting just now.

The left arm pressed on Velvi's right shoulder, and the fingers of the right hand stretched out to lift Velvi's face from her chin, so that Velvi's eyes could be completely captured by Mebius at close range.

"Hey... Mei, Mebius, what are you doing?"

Velvet quickly shook her head in an attempt to get away from Mebius's finger, but after shaking it back and forth, Mebius' finger lifted her back to the original position, and Mebius stared closely at her.

"I said, Velvet, what are you afraid of? Even the original one is shy and timid, but it's not like this, right? Aren't these all acquaintances~" Mebius seemed to see through everything, and it was like a gangster teasing someone. General said while pressing Velvet's shoulder.

"You were so nervous when you saw Alicia and Long. Could it be that you just~~~?"

"No, it's nothing! Mebius, don't talk nonsense!" Velvet hurriedly stood up and left the sofa, her whole body tense as if she was about to jump in the air, she closed her eyes and spoke loudly.

Mebius, who suddenly lost his support, suddenly fell down on the sofa where Velvet had just been sitting. She held up her hands to reveal her graceful figure. Even the wrapped clothes could hardly hold the ordinary fruit, because The two buttons that were previously unbuttoned were even more obvious.

Mebius raised his upper body and raised the corners of his mouth.

Velvet's performance is so interesting!

so fun!

...

"Okay, Mebius, don't bully Velvi. You know that Velvi is very... shy."

"Vilvi, come and sit over here."

"Okay, okay."

Velvet quickly walked around the back and sat down on Mei's right side. On her right was Yae Sakura, who was sitting on a single seat, thus blocking Mebius' view, and she breathed a sigh of relief.

After restraining the Herrscher, they naturally knew what was going on with Velvet... So, after careful consideration, Mei chose the word "shy", which was more neutral and more complimentary.

And protected her.

But she also really wants to know why it has been so long this time, and the original Velvet has emerged instead of another personality.

"Huo? I thought Mei, you were also curious about why this Velvet keeps coming out here. After all, it's not that there is no energy here, nor does it suppress her thinking." Mebius turned to look at Mei and said .

"The change in your behavior is really obvious. Do you want to change the impression in our hearts so much? Oh~ Do you also want to show the girly side of yourself?"

"That's right, Mebius."

"You-" To her surprise, Mei admitted bluntly.

Mei stood up with a slight smile, took the wine glass that Mebius had placed on the coffee table when he came over from Eden, and handed it to Mebius: "Haha~ After being reborn, I will naturally see some things more clearly. ,Come."

"Huo Huo, I didn't expect that Mei would be here today." Mebius took it with a strange smile.

"Bang -" the sound of clinking glasses sounded, and the two drank it down in one gulp.

After Mebius put down his wine glass, he immediately changed his face and said, "You really... can't live without a man, can you?"

"Pfft~ The guy at home is still waiting for me. I mean, Mebius, why do you seem a little angry? Are you using wine to drown your sorrows?" Mei couldn't help laughing when she heard Mebius say this. .

"Qi-sarcastic me, let's see if I don't get you drunk, let you see who is the mentor!" Mebius rushed forward, picked up the wine and poured it into Mei's mouth.

"Hahahaha, I drink, I drink big scientist, oh, slow down and spill it."

Just like Mebius was curious about Velvet and paid attention to Mei's changes.

With such an indulgent Mebius, who among the people is not curious about her changes?

Eden looked at them having fun, as if a new song was dancing in his eyes. He couldn't help but think about it in his brain, arranging this new melody, the new song.

The two people were playing around, making Velvet and Padofelis stunned for a moment, which shocked them.

A thought even popped up at the same time: [They actually... also have this side? 】

It's not that they didn't know what Mei and Mebius looked like behind the shell, but the two of them were playing together like this... They had never seen it before, and no one had ever thought about it.

Can the burden be put down?

......

Yae Sakura also recognized the familiar voice. Compared with the panicked voices around her, the voice she heard in the memory fragment was the voice of a woman who was extremely calm and could even be called indifferent in dealing with various things.

There is no doubt that it is Mei who is having so much fun with Mebius at this moment.

[I didn’t expect that the owner of that voice would be such an easy-going person.When I first heard it, I thought...] Yae Sakura thought as she looked at this familiar scene.

The position she was sitting in allowed her to have a perfect view of the entire reception, which was a very good observation position.

It's just right for her situation where she needs to listen more and understand everyone's stories, personalities, etc.

At this moment, Alicia walked away and stepped into the room.
