Miss Riddler just wants to level up in peace.

"How's Kevin's situation?"

"The Gem of Desire has been cast into the Sea of ​​Quanta from the Eye of the Abyss. The Lord will soon be able to break through the barrier of the Law of Reason and return to reality."

The mask, made of inorganic matter, concealed all of the man's emotions; no one could know what he was really thinking.

He was initially surprised and doubtful, but then carefully examined the person in front of him to confirm whether it was Möbius.

The result was as expected; even the person in question couldn't find fault with it, let alone Gray Snake.

He narrowed his eyes, trying to find clues in the other person's words.

"Well done,"

"Lord Mebius, the Lord has expressed doubts about Lady Ziyao's identity. What do you think should be done in response?"

"The constant erosion of the Quantum Sea has probably confused him. We'll let him see for himself when the time comes."

"Lord Mebius is absolutely right."

Gray Snake flattered, "The girl has immediately grasped the crux of the problem."

The only person who can make the decision is Kevin; they can only act as messengers.

"By the way, V, I have 500,000. Just transfer it to Raven's account."

"Is this what you want?"

Although Gray Snake was puzzled and felt that there was something strange about Mebius in front of him, he had no evidence.

"To set up a laboratory." As he answered, Möbius's eyes narrowed. "Grey Serpent, you have too many questions."

"No, I'll take care of it for you right away."

Eccentric personality, impulsive actions

That's quite in line with the style of the pioneers of previous civilizations, so he was probably overthinking it.

After leaving World Serpent, Kiana was puzzled. Wasn't Ziyao's attitude just now even more suspicious? Not only did she not explain, but she also did as she pleased, and left after saying a few words.

"Too much talk leads to mistakes; sometimes speaking less is a strategy."

As she spoke, Ziyao picked up her phone, which showed that 49 euros had been deposited into her account. "Look."

The missing 10,000 was because Raven used it as a handling fee.

"I see, I've learned something new."

Kiana nodded in affirmation.

It seems I still have a lot to learn.

She made up her mind that in the future she would become someone others could rely on.

Volume 1: Chapter 142 Moon Sea, Gathering Materials

Yuehai City.

The winter snow could not drown out the roar of the surging waves, which crashed against the smooth rock face again and again.

Although the city is near the ocean and the temperature is slightly warmer than in other places, it still can't stop the snow from falling.

Unnoticed by anyone, a faint light flashed across the empty mountain.

Stepping out of the spatial portal, the two were greeted by the Doctor from Anti-Entropy.

"Ms. Kiana, you are in better condition than I expected."

"Thank you."

Throughout the journey, Kiana pondered from time to time what Ziyao had just said.

So what exactly constitutes intelligence?

She cleared her throat quietly and imitated Ziyao's way of speaking, saying, "Reality and expectations are often separated, and it is rare to be able to combine the two. Doctor, you guessed right."

"Ahem... How did things go, Dr. Ein?"

Einstein shook his head, then tore off Tesla's scarf and wrapped it around himself.

"The quantum sea is still anchored, and we have been trying to find a leader position, but without success."

"In order to trap the snake, he sealed it in the sea along with himself."

As soon as he finished speaking, Tesla tried to snatch the scarf back, but Einstein nimbly dodged it.

"Hey, what's with your messy hair? I'm so cold."

Tesla shivered from the cold, shrinking his neck, and kept rubbing his hands together.

"Dr. Tesla is right. Without the leader, Cocolia is all-powerful... This winter, Anti-Entropy is destined to be colder than usual."

The girl exhaled a breath of warm air, which turned into wisps of white mist and dissipated into the cold air.

“We can’t just sit here and wait to die. I have a feeling that Cocolia is up to something.”

Without its leader, Anti-Entropy is now leaderless, and the radical Cocolia's power is growing.

They are not good at manipulating power and have repeatedly suffered setbacks in their confrontations.

"That guy actually refused to approve my research funding, I'm so angry."

It makes me angry just thinking about Cocolia and Tesla. They even recently came to Abyss City to interfere with their experiments, claiming to be researching technology from a pre-existing civilization...

“Ms. Ziyao, we hope to make use of your wisdom.”

"Are you serious, you 'bird's nest head'? I was just joking yesterday. Her physical condition is even worse than that of an average person."

Even Valkyries must be extremely cautious when entering the Quantum Sea, and there are also considerable physical requirements.

The girl was so frail that she seemed as if a gust of wind could blow her over; clearly, the quantum sea was too much of a burden for her.

"Yes, that's exactly what I wanted to tell you."

Although the overall plot has deviated quite a bit, we still know roughly what happened.

A month ago, Walter and Einstein conducted their seventh quantum sea experiment. Due to the encounter with the 'snake', only Einstein was able to leave.

Walter remained inside, trapping the 'snake' that wanted to return to the mortal world.

Kevin, a pioneer of a pre-civilization and a hero who saves the world.

Grey Serpent has recently been trying to help him break free from Walter's control and has mentioned a 'partner', who is undoubtedly Cocolia. The two have reached some kind of agreement.

"You think this is a publicly funded trip? That place is really weird."

Tesla was puzzled when he heard that Ziyao was willing to help them rescue Walter, who was trapped inside.

"It seems Ms. Ziyao had other purposes for going to the Quantum Sea, am I right?"

"How about setting the time in four days?"

"You are welcome anytime, and we will be fully prepared."

He took off the scarf, folded it into a neat square, and gently handed it to Ziyao with both hands, as if it were a token of their promise.

"Hey, my scarf."

Tesla was devastated; she had been completely ignored.

During the conversation, a dry, bitter taste wafted over on the cold wind.

One after another, box trucks sped past the roadside, fully loaded with goods and covered with a tarpaulin to shield them from the snow.

"This taste..."

Judging from the taste, it should be dried medicinal herbs.

"Is it strange that we have medicinal herbs here in Moonsea City?"

Tesla complained.

Due to its convenient transportation and the presence of numerous pharmaceutical companies, a complete industrial chain has been formed, which is why this city is also known as the "Little Pharmaceutical Capital".

"By the way, Ziyao, everything you're looking for is here. I've already looked at that list."

"This area is also within the sphere of influence of Destiny, so you'd better be careful."

After leaving those words behind, the two doctors descended the mountain, followed the road all the way to the port, and took a boat back to Sea Abyss City.

It's 7 AM now. After leaving Changkong City yesterday, I arrived at the World Serpent Headquarters, then entered Paradise, and created a spatial jump portal to reach Moonsea City...

Kiana wasn't sleepy. As a Valkyrie, performing high-intensity missions was common, and occasionally she would go two or three days without sleep.

Ziyao wasn't doing so well; her eyelids were drooping.

"Kiana... let's get a room."

Rubbing her sleepy eyes, Ziyao leaned against Kiana while yawning.

I was originally planning to go locally to look for the materials on the list, but it looks like I'll have to do it this afternoon.

If I wake up late, I might have to wait until tomorrow.

"Well, don't worry, leave it to me."

Feeling relied upon like this, and seeing the girl's unguarded and beautiful face, Kiana's heart fluttered.

Upon arriving at the nearest hotel, the staff kindly asked her what kind of room she would like.

"Hello, would you like a double or single room?"

"Single".

"Excuse me, who is she...?"

Out of professional habit, they would always ask about the guests' relationships.

"We are very good... friends."

Kiana hesitated for a moment before telling the truth.

The hotel wasn't a cramped rental apartment; she could have chosen a double room with two beds, but she opted for the former.

She felt very safe sleeping with Ziyao, and she became attached to this feeling.

"This is your accommodation card, please keep it safe."

Supporting the drowsy Ziyao, Kiana went straight to the second floor and opened the door to the deepest room by swiping her card.
