Canghai City.
Elysia had already put down the bow in her hands.
She looked at Shesha, which was lying on the ground unable to get up, but she did not finish it off.
Instead, she watched with her own eyes as Shesha secretly left, and only then did she turn and leave.
This counted as making Mobius owe her a favor.
Actually, she could have killed Shesha and brought it to Mobius.
But in order not to let Yu Muyang notice anything wrong, it was better to follow his original plot for now.
Who told him to be so understanding~
When Elysia returned, Ato and Himeko, both covered in wounds, were smoking.
Seeing Elysia come back, their eyes lit up.
They stepped forward and asked in a seemingly very concerned tone,
“How is it?
You’re not hurt, right?”
Elysia looked into their eyes and always felt that something wasn’t quite right.
“Obviously, I’m not hurt at all.”
As she spoke, Elysia even spun in a circle in front of them.
Himeko clicked her tongue in wonder.
She touched the bandages on her arm and said a bit helplessly, “Originally we were only supposed to come support the evacuation of refugees.
Who knew that big guy would suddenly appear?
If Ato hadn’t been here too, this old lady might have really died here.”
“The Flame-Chasers’ intelligence isn’t that great either.”
Ato nodded in agreement.
As the head of the Combat Department, he had always been quite dissatisfied with the intelligence side.
After all, intelligence was extremely important for frontline soldiers.
If the intelligence was wrong, it could cause many soldiers to die.
“Unfortunately, complaining to me is useless.
I’m also from the Combat Department.
I can’t control the intelligence side~”
Himeko waved her hand.
“I know.
I’m just venting a little.”
“What rank was that big guy?
From what I saw, it was at least Emperor-class, right?”
Elysia tapped her slender finger against her lips, thought for a moment, then said uncertainly, “Probably.
It escaped from under my hands.
I didn’t stop it.”
Hearing this, Ato and Himeko both froze slightly.
Seeing Elysia return, they had thought she had already taken care of that Honkai Beast.
So she let it escape?
“Ah, it’s fine.
It’s too hard to take down a Honkai Beast of that level by yourself in one go.
But we’ll have to specially monitor this guy’s movements from now on, otherwise it’ll cause big trouble.”
Ato spoke to comfort her.
Elysia didn’t take the matter to heart.
After all, Mobius would personally come to deal with Shesha later.
Speaking of which, could that body of hers that stayed in the research institute all the time really take down this companion Honkai Beast?
At least Elysia couldn’t imagine it.
“Alright.
Among the refugees you rescued, are there any promising seedlings?”
Generally speaking, most Flame-Chasers soldiers were recruited from among the refugees.
After all, hatred was the best medicine for joining the Flame-Chasers.
Ato shook his head slightly.
Himeko took a puff of her cigarette, exhaled lightly, lowered her head and thought for a moment, then said uncertainly, “I do have one little girl who looks pretty good, but her personality is a bit soft.
I plan to train her first.”
Elysia’s eyes lit up.
“What’s her name?”
Himeko was a little puzzled why Elysia was so curious about a new recruit, but she still didn’t ask.
“Her name is Hua.
Her family runs a martial arts dojo.”
It matched!
Elysia’s heart beat a little faster.
Originally she had wanted to see the other party with her own eyes, but clearly this was not a good time.
After returning to the Flame-Chasers, there would be a batch of new recruit training.
She could find a time then to take Yu Muyang to meet this little girl.
After making up her mind, Elysia clapped her hands, and the bright smile returned to her face.
“Alright, let’s head back.
You two will probably need to recover from your injuries for a while.”
Neither of them had any objections to Elysia’s suggestion.
Soon, after leaving some personnel to clean up the site, the few of them returned to Flame-Chasers headquarters together.
At this moment, Yu Muyang was sitting upright in Mobius’s research institute.
He had been dragged back by Mobius.
Originally, after returning to the Flame-Chasers, he had wanted to find a chance to slip away as soon as possible.
But this woman Mobius refused to let go no matter what and forcibly dragged him to the research institute.
Along the way, many researchers saw this scene and thought Mobius was about to start a killing spree again, so they quickly made way.
Yu Muyang wasn’t too worried that Mobius would slice him up.
Even if she really wanted to slice him, he could use the MANTIS data to exchange for his life.
That way he could also hand the things over to Mobius in a reasonable manner, and after the research succeeded, he could even become the first MANTIS.
Oh?
A plan that kills three birds with one stone.
Yu Muyang had already prepared himself for everything and was just waiting for Mobius to come over with a scalpel and lure him into bed.
But he had already been sitting there for half an hour, and Mobius had been doing research the whole time without even looking at him.
[Unreasonable.
Really unreasonable.
How can Mobius just sit there?]
[Did I really overthink it?
Did Mobius only want to bring me back?]
[There’s such a good research subject right in front of you and you’re completely unmoved.
You’re not Mobius.
Say it, who the hell are you?!]
While recording data, Mobius heard Yu Muyang’s inner thoughts, and the corner of her mouth lifted slightly.
So you don’t know everything either.
That’s what makes it interesting.
As for his so-called three-birds-with-one-stone plan, Mobius admitted she really wanted to do that.
But right now there was clearly something more fun.
The MANTIS data could be obtained a little later.
After all, no matter what, he would have to hand it over to her, right?
But opportunities to tease this little guy were rare.
Thinking this, Mobius directly tossed a piece of paper to him.
“Fill in the things above.”
Yu Muyang took it in confusion, then looked at the contents on the paper.
[So it’s not a marriage application form…]
Mobius, who was drinking water, almost choked to death.
She quickly grabbed a tissue from the side and wiped the water that had spilled on her.
What on earth was this guy thinking about?!
Yu Muyang didn’t suspect anything.
He picked up a pen and finished writing in a few strokes.
It was all his personal information.
Filling it in was fine.
[Done.]
[Anyway, Mobius probably won’t harm me.
Should be fine.]
[No wait.
Mobius’s expression is weird.]
[Could it be… this is a voluntary body donation survey for research?]
[With Mobius’s personality, it’s not impossible… Mobius, are you playing dirty?!]
Mobius had a faint smile on her lips.
She swayed her waist as she walked up to Yu Muyang.
Under his shocked expression, she picked up the form, then stared at him with a smiling face, her red lips parting slightly.
“Congratulations.
You’ve joined the First Research Institute and become my little assistant.”
