"You know me?"
Ryuga asked.
"What, is that strange?"
"Although they locked me in the laboratory, if I want to know about something, I don't necessarily need to 'see it with my own eyes.'"
Mobius's pair of rainbow-colored beautiful eyes looked at Ryuga with a half-smile.
Her small face carried a hint of playful teasing.
"So, are you really an 'alien from space'?"
Blanka, who was cleaning up the porcelain cup fragments, had her little brain instantly crash. What, what do you mean 'alien from space'?
"Impressive."
Ryuga clapped his hands.
He still preferred Mobius's current voice—it was more comfortable.
Worth mentioning, Mobius's(World Serpent Form) strange way of speaking later was learned from Elysia, because she thought people liked listening to Elysia talk.
So, in order to get people to accept experiments, emmm to trick people onto the operating table, she started imitating Elysia.
The absurd thing was, according to Elysia's investigation, it actually worked.
Ugh, one Elysia was enough.
After all, there was also Feixiao later.
"Half an hour ago, Mr. Demon God killed the Herrscher of the Void and her Judgment-class companion Honkai beast."
"Ten minutes ago, he slaughtered Fire MOTH's higher-ups."
"Oh~, including that annoying Mr. X. For this, I must thank you."
Mobius said vigilantly.
However, she was still very happy about Mr. X's death.
Because of her Fusion Warrior plan, Mr. X insisted on human supremacy, fearing the opening of the 'humans are no longer human' Pandora's Box.
So he was always at odds with her.
While Mobius believed 'human' was a broad concept.
In the later storyline, Mr. X even hired an assassin to kill Dr. Mobius, also because the Fusion Warrior plan was officially launched.
MEI had perfected the 'Meta-Morph Surgery.'
"..."
Blanka froze in place, eyes widening.
Huh?!
No wonder Vida was so respectful earlier.
Turned out she was scared to death.
"Correction—the Herrscher of the Void was killed by Elysia. I only killed the Judgment-class Honkai beast."
Ryuga explained.
"That kind of thing, whatever. As long as I can research the Herrscher's corpse."
"Elysia found herself a good 'boyfriend.'"
Mobius waved her hand.
Although the palm print on his face had faded somewhat from the wind, it could still be seen.
"Speak. What do you want from me?"
"Headhunting."
"Who?"
"You! And also Blanka."
Mobius: "..."
Blanka: "Eh?"
She never expected she'd be included too.
Without a doubt, Mobius, MEI, and Vill-V—these three pushed the Previous Era's technological development rapidly forward.
Bringing them to the Star Rail universe, they'd probably be atleast High level pathstrider level.
It wasn't impossible for them to enter the 'Genius Club.'
Mobius was innately knowledgeable, somewhat similar to the Club's spider Sserkal.
Her Meta-Morph surgery could both enhance combat power and provide super-long lifespans.
MEI discovered five truths of parallel worlds, Blank Divine Keys, and so on.
Moreover, in another half year, even as a high school student, she would publish theories about the Sea of Quanta, shocking the entire Mu Continent academic world.
Vill-V was the pinnacle of human wisdom—a genius who could achieve whatever she imagined, as long as she didn't turn herself into a split-personality case and lower her ceiling.
Each one was a genius transcending their era.
Tree-Sea Theory, Meta-Morph Surgery, Divine Keys, and so on—the Current Era fifty thousand years later relied entirely on archaeological discoveries of their inventions.
Bringing them to Star Rail and joining the 'Genius Club' was only a matter of time.
Mm, but they still needed mentors.
MEI was an all-rounder—she could work with Herta.
Mobius's pursuits had certain commonalities with Ruan Mei.
Two 'Orochimarus' would definitely have common topics.
╰(￣▽￣)╭
Vill-V could be tossed to Screwllum.
Perfect.
These three pairs could each neutralize each other.
Mobius would consider your thoughts—in some ways similar to Herta, perhaps even higher in moral standards than Herta.
If you voluntarily participated in her experiments, she would closely monitor your physical health to ensure the experiment proceeded smoothly.
Ruan Mei was a personality-deified crazy scientist.
In other games she'd be a major villain—cold and emotionless, treating others as tools, single-mindedly devoted to research.
Later she gradually gained humanity.
Vill-V's personality was lawless—I don't need to care about others' opinions.
Screwllum was known as the most humane among non-humans.
MEI was even more extreme—her thoughts represented everyone's thoughts.
She'd pair perfectly with Herta too.
"Headhunt me? What can you offer me?"
Mobius asked curiously.
"Give you a mentor."
"Huh?"
In Ryuga's view, the Previous Era's technological development and Honkai were like a marathon race.
Seeing who could outrun whom.
Would human technology defeat Honkai?
Or be crushed by Honkai?
The three doctoral geniuses rapidly pushed technology to surge, confronting Honkai.
And similarly, Honkai would suddenly intensify as civilization surged.
Until completely exhausted.
The Seventh Herrscher, Herrscher of Fire—strength directly surged up a level.
Immediately after, Fusion Warriors fully took the stage.
And the subsequent Herrschers seemed to suddenly accelerate into a sprint?
Starting from the Ninth Herrscher, Herrscher of Earth period, human civilization officially fell apart, until completely destroyed leaving only Fire MOTH as the sole fortress.
Until the Binding tragedy descended.
Fusion Warriors implanted with Honkai Beast DNA were wiped out in one minute, directly reducing to the final 13.
So, technological development being too fast wasn't a good thing.
But similarly, without technological advancement, the already hopeless Previous Era would become even more desperate.
Without these three top geniuses, would the Previous Era's Honkai difficulty drop from Hell to Hard?
"A mentor, me?"
Mobius froze. She still needed a mentor?
Blanka was also somewhat confused—Dr. Mobius already mentored others.
"You think you're impressive?"
"Heh."
"There are always higher mountains and stronger people, Serpent Doctor."
"One of my friends is researching the essence of 'Life.'"
"The life simulated by her 'knowledge' developed its own civilization in just a few years."
"Her casual 'research' always shakes the biological system."
"Her 'research' has changed many planets—flying whales, swimming deer, panicked flowers, massive plant root systems."
"She once destroyed the original species' evolutionary patterns across an entire planet."
"She walked onto a golden desert planet. When she left, that planet had become a verdant green oasis—and this... took less than a month."
"Her creations have long surpassed the imagination of organic life scales."
"She simulates digital life into reality."
"She even once created deities."
As Ryuga's words unfolded leisurely, Mobius's heart stirred with overwhelming waves.
Eyes slightly trembling, breathing suddenly rapid.
Chest continuously heaving, drawing Ryuga's gaze until he couldn't look away.
Finally, Mobius could no longer sit still.
She suddenly stood up, taking three steps in two, grabbing Ryuga's hand tightly, eyes burning with nearly obsessive fervent flames.
"Where is my mentor?"
Blanka: (⊙_⊙)?
