Honkai Impact 3rd, but I have too many mods.

"It is indeed worth studying, but I think the combination you are talking about is different from the combination I am thinking about."

Mebius tried his best not to swear.

Her idea of ​​creating new humans capable of adapting to the Honkai will inevitably involve the issue of "combining" humans and the Honkai.

After all, the current situation is to fight Honkai with Honkai.

But she was certain that Ruan Mei, that scoundrel, meant for humans and Honkai Beasts to have children...

Thinking about it this way, Mebius felt as if he had become a moral exemplar.

"Maybe." Ruan Mei made no attempt to hide her thoughts.

Her path began by disregarding existing laws of life and the meaning of life—even though her goal was to create perfect beings.

"..."

Mebius really wanted to tell Ruan Mei that Honkai Beasts have no gender and that all the assassins are female, but... she felt that this "setback" wouldn't be a problem for a madwoman like Ruan Mei.

A conflicted look appeared on Möbius's face. After a moment, as if he had made up his mind, he looked at Liu Bai.

"...Although I don't want to say it, but, little lab rat, go ahead and fuck her until she gets pregnant."

"...?" Bai was clearly stunned for a moment. "Wait, Doctor, do you know what you're saying?"

“I know.” Möbius said with a deep expression, “This woman is beyond redemption, so go and fuck her.”

“Completely chaotic logic,” Mei pushed up her glasses, but nodded at the same time. “However, it is indeed a solution.”

"You two wait a minute, what nonsense are you spouting?" Bai pressed down on their shoulders. "What does this have to do with solving the problem?"

"I'm also puzzled by the logic of your arguments." Ruan Mei, unusually, joined forces with Liu Bai.

"Because you have absolutely no idea how precious life is!"

“I understand,” Ruan Mei corrected. “I think I understand the preciousness of life better than you do.”

“I don’t think our understanding is the same thing.” Möbius rolled his eyes at Ruan Mei. “Forget it, I won’t argue with you about this—Liu Bai, you’ve felt it too, haven’t you? This guy lacks humanity.”

"..."

Ah... there's really no way to refute that.

"The short name is 'Frankenstein,' right...? That's what I'm often called by other people in the club."

Even in a club full of freaks, Nguyen Mai was one of the most freaks.

Ruan Mei showed a troubled expression.

"But what does this have to do with me having intercourse with Mr. Liu Bai?"

“How about trying what it’s like to be a mother, Ruan Mei?” Mebius said, arms crossed. “Since you’re so determined to create life, why not experience what it’s like to be a mother for yourself?”

"Please allow me to decline, but I don't have any plans in that regard at the moment."

Ruan Mei remained calm as always.

"I think Dr. Möbius, what you said was a bit too flippant."

Mebius snorted, which was certainly flippant, but he couldn't resist the sheer danger posed by Ruan Mei.

"...If I'm not joking, Ruan Mei, you go and teach Liu Bai. Only when Liu Bai is qualified to participate in the experiment can you participate."

Mebius could somewhat sense the contradictions in Nguyen Mai.

On the one hand, Ruan Mei truly loves life, but on the other hand, Ruan Mei is somewhat... delusional.

Creating a perfect life... So what is perfection in her eyes?

Mebius has already found the answer after these days of contact—the Star God.

What Ruan Mei truly wanted to study as the perfect being was the being known as the Star God in their universe.

It has to be said that studying the highest known beings is a very normal dream for researchers like them who like to court death. Mebius herself also wants to study a few Herrschers.

But this is precisely where Ruan Mei's obsession lies—she has already fixed the concept of "perfection" in her mind.

Mebius didn't understand the Star God, but she knew that Ruan Mei, as the "Creator," might have been restricted.

No matter how little he knew, Mebius knew that the Star Gods were not beings that could be easily analyzed and created, otherwise they would have been worthless long ago.

"Looking at the mountain makes the horse run itself to death"—this is probably the best description of Ruan Mei's obsession.

She herself didn't know when she would be able to reach her goal.

Möbius wasn't good at comforting others—but she was very good at passing on troublesome things that she wasn't good at to others.

The only person who could speak with Ruan Mei was Liu Bai, and naturally, only Liu Bai was capable of undertaking this important task.

"Mr. Liu Bai..."

Ruan Mei sized up Liu Bai—although his expression was very gentle, his gaze lacked warmth.

"Okay, I accept."

Without much thought, Ruan Mei nodded in agreement.

Even with her experience, Liu Bai was an "interesting life," and Ruan Mei was not worried about the task that Mebius had given her.

Liu Bai's talent is undeniable... Ruan Mei even had some expectations for how much knowledge Liu Bai could absorb from her.

As far as the task is concerned, Nguyen Mai has no objection to it.

Although Liu Bai knew he was being blamed, this method was much better than the previous one.

"...Is it really okay?" Mei pushed up her glasses as she watched the two figures walk away. "I think Ruan Mei's existence is a danger to Liu Bai."

"Don't worry, she won't directly target Liu Bai." Möbius sighed. As a biologist herself, she felt a pang of sadness, like she was handing her beloved over to a blond-haired man. "In essence, Liu Bai is still human. It's unknown how much interest she will have in Liu Bai's body."

…………

"Ruan Mei... I'm telling you, since you can't continue your research here anyway, why don't you make yourself a little more human?"

Liu Bai and Ruan Mei walked side by side, and Liu Bai couldn't help but complain.

“…Sometimes what you say doesn’t make people want to respond.” Ruan Mei’s gentle tone carried a hint of helplessness. “I never expect others to understand me.”

"Ah, I get it. Classic Frankenstein lines, like 'Don't expect to understand, don't need to understand,' etc." Bai sighed.

"..." Ruan Mei shook her head helplessly at Liu Bai's complaints.

She knew Liu Bai understood everything; he was just complaining.

"Ah, never mind, but I have another question." Bai already knew that Ruan Mei was a difficult person to get along with.

"what is the problem?"

"Is the you in the light cone the same as the you now?"

"..."

An unexpectedly sharp question.

"……Why do you ask?"

"Your initial motivation for embarking on this path... had nothing to do with the Star God, right?"

“…It’s unrelated.” Ruan Mei nodded slightly, her tone carrying a hint of ambiguity. “Initially, it was because of my parents’ passing…”

I've said a bit too much.

Ruan Mei shut her mouth in time.

"And then the Venerable Master Boshi saw it?"

"Correct."

"And then you became interested in the Star God?"

"……Correct."

"And what about before you embarked on this path?"

"...just an ordinary little girl."

A hint of reminiscence appeared on Ruan Mei's face.

"A little girl who likes desserts?"

"More or less." Ruan Mei didn't feel angry that her privacy had been exposed.

"Is he consistent inside and out?"

"……perhaps."

Liu Bai's question made her feel subtly...uncomfortable.

"I really hope you can be as consistent inside and out as you were when you were little."

"People grow up, Mr. Liu Bai."

Nguyen Mai gazed at the sky.

Liu Bai shrugged and didn't respond to the question.

If Ruan Yinmei were a mad scientist (or a gentle beauty who passed away), she would give people a much better impression.

"...Speaking of which, what am I like in your eyes?"

"Ok?"

Liu Bai was somewhat surprised that Ruan Mei would bring up this issue on her own initiative.

However, Ruan Mei simply smoothed a strand of hair behind her ear, waiting for Liu Bai's answer.

After a brief moment of thought, Liu Bai told the truth: "A mad scientist who is outwardly passionate but inwardly cold."

"This evaluation... is really unexpected." After thinking for a moment, Ruan Mei could only give this answer.

No one has ever described her like that before—or rather, described her like that to her face.

"Can I interpret this as a moderate assessment?"

"I'd rather you interpret it more negatively," Bai said helplessly.

“I will.” Ruan Mei’s voice was gentle, almost formulaic. “However, sometimes I think Möbius is a bit more insane, especially if her goal is the galaxy…”

Ah...that makes sense, the bigger the stage of human evolution, the more perverse it becomes...

"But Mebius seems to like you very much."

"Maybe it's because I'm likable?" Liu Bai seemed a little awkward when the topic came up.

"I realized it on day one."

Ruan Mei revealed a smile with a hint of mockery.

"Welcome back, Master~ Miss Ruan Mei~"

"Hello, Xiao Ai." Ruan Mei greeted Xiao Ai.

"You like that child?"

"There is one thing about her: looking at her reminds me of my creation."

"..."

Um... Ruan Mei's creation.

Those dessert kittens and shumai?

It's actually a bit hard to judge Liu Bai, although those little things show that Ruan Mei's heart isn't so cold.

But... letting those things run around in other people's homes still feels a bit strange.

"Ah—! Let me make this clear first, Xiao Ai doesn't taste good! Oh no! She can't eat it!"

"Pfft... What are you saying?"

Hearing Liu Bai's somewhat belatedly realized voice, Ruan Mei laughed genuinely, a rare occurrence for her.

"Of course I wouldn't eat that child."

"...Eh? Eat?" Xiao Ai's chubby, adorable face showed a belated blank expression, which quickly turned into panic. "N-no, you can't eat it! I-I'll go on a diet!"

Is it still possible to lose weight?

Ruan Mei squatted down, gently rubbed Xiao Ai's face, and softly made a little joke.
