Sorry, you scumbag woman, you can do whatever you want.

Beside him, the vendor swallowed hard, not because of the green-haired beauty's appearance, but because of Qianjie's angry yet helpless expression.

That's the most dangerous place on Dusk Street.

"Woman, you've got some nerve," Qianjie sneered. "You actually dared to come out alone in this godforsaken place."

In Twilight Street, beauty without the ability to protect oneself is the original sin. A woman like Mebius, beautiful and intelligent, but lacking sufficient fighting skills, is... the most conspicuous commodity in Twilight Street.

Before long, they'll be arrested by gangsters or drug addicts, either tortured or sold to rich businessmen to be used as breeding machines.

In short, there will be no good outcome.

“Really? They all seem very easy to talk to.” Möbius frowned in confusion. “They are always very helpful whenever I ask them for directions, otherwise I wouldn’t have found you so easily.”

"How did you ask for directions?" Qianjie asked Mebius while eating fried rice. Given the chaos of Twilight Street, he would definitely not let Mebius off the hook, as the other party's appearance and temperament were too good.

No matter how you sell it, you can make so much money you'll question your existence.

“They didn’t ask much, just that they knew where Qianjie was.” Mebius tapped his chin with his index finger. “I just said we were friends, and they were so excited they almost cried. They kindly gave me directions.”

Qianjie: "..."

This woman, as always, has a perverse sense of humor. She must have done it on purpose, wanting to see the fearful yet helpless expressions on other people's faces.

Just like when I was with him back then.

"It seems like the environment on Twilight Street is quite nice. Sending you here was definitely the right decision." Möbius patted his chest. "The people here are kind and simple. You must be living quite well here."

"Ah, not bad." Qianjie sneered, looking around. There was practically no one else there except for the vendor who was making dinner. Everyone else had already fled in fear.

“This place is perfect for me, and communication is very convenient,” he told Möbius.

In Twilight Street, communication is relatively primitive, requiring only sufficient violence.

Then whatever you say is right.

“Is that so? That’s a problem.” Mebius sighed, and under Qian Jie’s slightly puzzled gaze, he voiced his thoughts, “I still want to take you out of Twilight Street.”

The moment the words were spoken.

"Clatter!" The sound of a spatula falling to the ground came from not far away. The vendor's eyes were filled with excitement. Could it be that the jinx was about to leave Twilight Street?

However, when Mebius and Qianjie heard the noise and turned to look at him, he was startled and quickly lowered his head to pick up the spatula and continue cooking.

Pretend that nothing is wrong.

“No interest, I don’t want to leave here.” Qian Jie refused directly, but his eyes remained wary. He knew Mebius well; she always had a way of getting him to cooperate with her actions, whether he wanted to or not.

In that village back then, that woman, Mebius, tricked him into coming out like that. During the World Serpent arc, she also used rhetoric to trick him into participating in an experiment, where she drew a lot of his blood.

When the experiment came to an end, he was thrown into Twilight Street and made to work with a troublesome nun.

Sometimes he really wondered if there was something wrong with Möbius's brain, that he would let him work with that woman, Aponia.

Can't you see the differences between them?

It was still due to Mebius's perverse sense of humor.

“I’ll give you a raise,” Möbius said enticingly, “so you won’t have to eat fried rice from roadside stalls anymore.”

"..." Qian Jie was silent for a while, then looked at Mebius and asked, "Back then, you did so many experiments on me, but it seems you never gave me a single penny, did you?"

At the time, he didn't feel much about it and wasn't interested in the money, but afterwards he realized something was wrong.

Why did he conduct so many experiments, yet seem to have gained nothing, and was ultimately thrown into Twilight Street by Möbius?

And I also have to work with that troublesome nun.

“How can you say that?” Mebius shook his head. “When I took you out of that village, I arranged an identity for you, and provided you with food, clothing, and shelter, all of which cost money.”

Go on, and see if I believe you.

Qianjie remained silent, but the look in his eyes as he gazed at Mebius clearly conveyed this meaning.

He first met Möbius in a remote village where people were suffering from an unknown disease.

When he fell from the sky and displayed his immense power, the villagers began to regard him as a god, believing that he could save people suffering from disease.

The method involved bleeding him, as the villagers believed his blood could cure the unknown disease.

However, at this very moment, Mebius appeared without warning, not only taking in the sick villagers but also using modern methods and a large amount of financial resources to turn the village into a famous tourist attraction, providing the villagers with modern education and knowledge dissemination.

This made his identity awkward. The villagers, who had come into contact with modern society and were becoming wealthy, no longer regarded him as a god and understood that he was an outsider.

At that time, Mebius stepped forward and, by some unknown means, prevented the villagers from spreading the news that he was an outcast.

They also took him out of the village, gave him a new identity, fabricated his background, and helped him integrate into modern society.

Then, the woman started to bleed him... no, to draw his blood.

However, the methods used were much milder.

“It seems you’ve misunderstood me a bit,” Möbius sighed. “I thought that working with you in Aponia would allow you to rediscover the beauty of the world through the children’s innocence.”

With a snap, Qianjie broke the chopsticks in his hand. Suppressing his anger, he said, "Those brats are so noisy!"

"Did you feel maternal love from Aponia?" Mebius pressed, only to see that Qianjie's clenched fists were bulging with veins, as if they were about to explode.

"Woman, you...!" His anger grew stronger, but Mebius, sitting opposite him, still smiled and showed no fear of his impending attack.

"Hmph, boring." For some reason, he suddenly calmed down, ate his fried rice, and ignored the perverse sense of humor of Mebius.

Otherwise, given Möbius's small stature, a single, gentle punch from him would have been enough to annihilate him.

“It seems that sending you here was my mistake.” Mebius was distressed, giving off the feeling of a mother who had raised the wrong child and was very distressed. She sighed deeply, “It seems that I have to take you out of Twilight Street.”

"Woman, can't you understand?!" Qianjie glared at Mebius's delicate face. "I don't want to leave Twilight Street. I'm fine here, I don't need your meddling!"

“After a while, you will leave with Aponia.” Mebius seemed not to have heard Thousand’s refusal. “Once you arrive at your destination, I will make new arrangements for you.”

"Don't pretend you can't hear me!" Qianjie was even angrier. What was wrong with this woman? She kept talking to herself and didn't she hear his angry refusal?

but.

“I heard you, but don’t be in such a hurry,” Möbius shook his head slightly, his gaze falling on the stall owner beside him. “I’m about to tell you some deadly secrets. Are you sure you want to hear them?”

She made a very gentle gesture...like slitting her throat.

"If we had listened, we might all be dead tomorrow."

"I'm leaving now!" The vendor shuddered, turned off the gas, and ran away. Was that green-haired beauty talking about some deadly secret?

However, there is no doubt that a thousand tribulations can take his life.

"..." Qianjie watched the vendor leave. He hadn't paid yet, and the vendor had already run away.

Never mind, I'll just give it to you next time.

“Thousand Calamities, do you know about Collapse?” Mebius spoke slowly at this moment, explaining to himself, “It is a special kind of energy that can not only coexist with the human body, but is also a universal energy source that can be used by any instrument or species.”

At this point, her voice lowered.

"Of course, although Honkai energy is versatile, there is an issue of adaptability. Some people who are not adaptable will get Honkai disease when they come into contact with Honkai energy. The villagers who bled you back then also got Honkai disease."

"The person who bled me the most is you." Qianjie said this for some reason. He seriously suspected that Mebius had used his own blood to clone a large number of people.

“Thousand Tribulations, you need to learn to grasp the key points.” Mebius shook his head. “Honkai disease and Honkai energy are the key points.”

"Not interested." Qianjie answered bluntly; he wasn't particularly interested in Honkai disease or Honkai energy.

Anyway, the one who will be troubled is a top researcher like Möbius; we can't just let him do research.

Chapter 86

Sue and Kevin

"Honkai not only gives birth to Honkai disease," Mebius chuckled, "but also to Honkai Beasts and super life forms called 'Herrschers'."

She sighed as she said this.

"The Herrschers will indiscriminately destroy human civilization. Neither I nor you can escape the threat of the Herrschers."

"You want me to fight the Herrscher?" Qianjie asked coldly. He roughly understood Mebius's idea. If the so-called Honkai could give birth to super life forms, then his strength would indeed be useful.

“You will fight the Herrscher together,” Mebius explained. “The Honkai will grow stronger with the progress of civilization. Although your current strength is sufficient, it will eventually reach its limit.”

"I don't want to cooperate with others." Qianjie knew clearly the consequences of cooperating with others. If he were to cooperate with others to fight against the so-called Herrschers, the result would only be worse.

It would be better if he took action himself.

“What if your teammate… is not weaker than you, but stronger?” Möbius said with a smile. “Even though he is weaker than you now, he will be the strongest human in the future.”

"The strongest human, who?" Qian Jie became interested. He knew his strength very well, probably even better than Qian Jie himself.

However, it's hard not to be curious when Mebius says that there are humans stronger than him.

What kind of person could possibly receive such high praise from Mebius?

“A cheerful boy,” Möbius said with a smile, “currently enjoying his youth on campus.”

"If he can beat me, then I'll agree." Qianjie's smile revealed a fierce fighting spirit, but Mebius rolled his eyes and calmly replied.

"The Second Herrscher is about to be born." Her delicate face revealed melancholy. "If I cannot succeed in defeating her, I will probably call it quits."

"You'll die? What a joke." Qianjie sneered disdainfully. In this world, who could die? He didn't believe Mebius would die. Mebius was the strongest doctor of this era, and even more cunning.
