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

Something doesn't look good.

"It's alright, just say whatever you want." The female host's smile became somewhat forced.

“That monster is unlike any species in the current biosphere,” Möbius replied. “Theoretically, it is impossible for a monster of this caliber to be born, neither in terms of its physical structure nor its function.”

She replied to the host.

"So, I... don't understand at all."

The atmosphere froze.

The female host stood there, stunned, looking at Mebius's serious expression, feeling unable to continue the conversation.

Wasn't this live stream just a ploy to reassure people around the world and prevent them from panicking?

Why would Dr. Mebius speak such blunt truths?

"Doctor, you're so funny." The female host pursed her lips, looking at the live stream comments, feeling that the whole world was about to be turned upside down by Mebius's blunt truth.

Mebius frowned, shook his head slightly, and explained, "No, I didn't..."

"Doctor, do you have any guesses about the monster?" The female host interrupted Mebius's offhand remark, forcefully changing the subject. "Do you believe that methods must be used to defeat the monster? What are your thoughts on the monster?"

After saying that, she gave Möbius a pleading look. Although the researchers didn't understand social etiquette, they shouldn't be so blunt as to tell the truth. What the higher-ups wanted was for Möbius to fabricate lies to comfort the public.

Speaking the absolute truth can lead to very troublesome situations.

Mebius paused for a moment, a troubled expression on his face. Seeing the female host about to cry, her hands clasped in prayer, he slowly spoke.

“There are some speculations and ideas, but these shouldn’t be told to the general public.” She sighed and explained, “In this world, there exists a phenomenon called Honkai. The source is currently unclear, but it is as ubiquitous as air on the planet. This can cause people to be unable to adapt and suffer from Honkai disease, and it can also cause…some unnatural phenomena.”

At this point, a troubled expression appeared on his face.

"You can understand it as the so-called spiritual energy revival, or you can understand it as the air being filled with magic. This magic will give birth to many dangerous magical beasts, and when the magic in the air accumulates to a certain level, it will give birth to monsters called 'Herrschers,' which is what you call monsters."

"That sounds amazing," the female host said with an awkward laugh, then turned to Möbius and asked, "So, do you have any ideas for a solution?"

“That Herrscher, which I call the Herrscher of Evolution, can rapidly evolve according to the environment and attacks.” Mebius said with a straight face, “Currently, no known weapon or means of humankind can kill the Herrscher of Evolution; in fact, it will only make the Herrscher of Evolution stronger.”

(Are you really here to comfort the public?) The female host was almost in despair. She never expected that the mad scientist who was feared by everyone was such a straightforward person. This live broadcast... the key point is that he didn't tell the truth.

It's just a way to reassure the people at the bottom of society.

"So what's your solution?" the female host pleaded. "You must have a solution, right?"

"The solution, how to solve it? In short, it will be solved." Möbius pursed his lips, his eyes darting around. "We are also working on solving this problem. Once I solve this problem, I will be able to solve that problem. Please rest assured and wait for us to solve the problem."

Female host: "..."

This live broadcast only added fuel to the fire; she could already imagine how angry the public would become.

Chapter 96

You guys aren't planning to run away, are you?

The live stream was temporarily interrupted.

You can still vaguely see the female host's tearful expression before the live stream ended, pleading with Mebius as she said something.

After a long while, the live stream resumed.

"I apologize, there was an accident just now." The female host's eyes were still slightly red, but she forced a smile. "Let's continue our previous topic. Please welcome Dr. Möbius to answer."

She turned her gaze to Mebius and spoke.

"Dr. Möbius, what are your insights on the Heralds of Evolution, and how do you think humanity should confront them?"

"..." Mebius remained silent, meeting the female host's pleading gaze. After a long pause, he slowly spoke, "I haven't yet begun my research on the Herrscher of Evolution, so I don't have much insight yet."

At this point, she gently turned her head away.

"However, based on my years of experience, I have discovered that Herrschers may all have a crucial core, just like the human heart. If you penetrate it, you can inflict a fatal blow."

"Is that so? It seems that humanity has a great chance of winning." The female host smiled, lying to the world without batting an eye. "Please don't worry too much about the threat of the Herrscher of Evolution. We have been working hard to develop weapons and will be able to kill the Herrscher of Evolution soon."

"..." Mebius nodded expressionlessly, glanced at the comments on the screen, and realized that no one really believed him, which made him even more frightened.

but.

"Doctor, in your opinion, which part of the Herrscher of Evolution is the core?" The female host no longer cared about anything else; she just wanted to find a plausible lie. Now, she felt that nothing mattered.

Life was suddenly enveloped by a vast emptiness.

"...The core is hidden in the head." Mebius replied expressionlessly, "As long as we use the electromagnetic cannon to penetrate the Herrscher of Evolution and destroy the core inside the body, we can kill the Herrscher of Evolution."

(Do humans have such powerful weapons?) The female host paused slightly, pursed her lips, and changed the subject.

"Excuse me, are there any other weapons that can do this?" she asked with a smile. There was indeed an electromagnetic cannon, but its damage was insufficient to penetrate the Herrscher of Evolution. It would be better to use other weapons for a more direct bombardment effect.

However, Mebius gently shook his head, and the female host, as usual, revealed a pleading look in her eyes.

Could this big shot please not be so blunt?

“Actually, I have a friend who can develop electromagnetic cannons,” Möbius explained. “She has abilities that are no less than mine. Given enough resources, she should be able to create a weapon that can kill the Herrscher of Evolution.”

"May I ask who your friend is?" For some reason, the female host felt that there was still hope for humanity.

At least, Mebius doesn't seem to be lying.

“Vilvie, a magician who loves to perform,” Mebius explained calmly. “In this world, only she is capable of designing a weapon that can kill an Evolutionary Herrscher in a short period of time.”

"Sounds like a very important person." The female host breathed a sigh of relief; at least now she had given the world an explanation.

Whether they believe it or not, she doesn't really believe it.

“There are many such remarkable people in this world,” Mebius nodded. “Unfortunately, they don’t have many opportunities to stand out, like Mebius.”

"Is May also considered a genius by the doctor?" the female host asked with a smile. What she had to do was to deceive people all over the world as much as possible and make them believe that she was safe.

“Yes, she’s a genius.” Möbius nodded. “At least she can understand what I’m saying without me having to waste too much time explaining.”

"Understood, we will do our best to find 'Vilvie' and 'Mei' for you." The female host said seriously, directly agreeing on behalf of the higher-ups. No... to be more precise, the higher-ups have already gone to arrest them.

When Möbius said what kind of people he needed.

……

……

In Canghai City.

"Could you wait until I finish my magic performance?" Wilvi looked helplessly at the army that surrounded her so tightly that it was impossible to get through. She made her request very seriously, but found that the army that was blocking her way was unmoved.

"Alright, let's go." She reluctantly accepted reality and left with the army.

In the current situation, there is no time for her to waste; at least, there is no time for her to waste right now.

Well, that's at least what people think.

And at the same time.

At Chiba Academy.

"..." Mei looked bewildered, put down the book in her hand, and stared at the army that violently broke down the door.

"Take her away!" With that concise command, the officer waved his hand, and several female soldiers rushed over. Amidst Mei's bewildered and panicked expression, they hoisted "Mei" onto their shoulders and sped away from the school.

They boarded a helicopter and left.

"Sue, a helicopter is coming to school!" Kevin looked at the helicopter taking off and turned to his friend with a smile. "I really want to ride in a helicopter and experience the feeling of flying in the sky."

"..." Su glanced at Kevin, remaining silent. On the plane, there seemed to be a purple-haired girl, probably Dr. Mebius, the talent "Mei" he needed.

"Su, that person on the helicopter looks familiar." Kevin frowned slightly, feeling that there was a figure on the helicopter that looked familiar, but because of the distance and the tight protection by the military, he couldn't see clearly at all.

“Yes, Mei,” Sue answered Kevin’s question, their eyes meeting in Kevin’s questioning gaze.

“While you were playing basketball just now, Dr. Mebius broadcast it live to the whole world,” he replied. “In order to defeat the Herrscher of Evolution, Mebius specifically requested the help of ‘Mei’.”

"..." Kevin fell silent, and for some reason he remembered what Mebius had once told him.

Do you want to possess superhuman strength?

……

……

Three days later.

The entire world was plunged into unprecedented panic. Information about the Herrscher of Evolution and their achievements, from unknown sources, was being continuously disseminated to the general public, and attempts to control it were futile.

The more the coalition government tries to control the spread of information, the greater the spread of information becomes, and the more panicked the public becomes.

Doomsday rhetoric is becoming increasingly radical.

As for the immortality surgery that Mebius mentioned, no one cares anymore.

The world is going to end, who cares about immortality?

And at this time.

Inside the laboratory of the fire-chasing moth.

“The underlying structure of the body tissues is different at different times.” Mei, wearing a researcher’s white coat, compared the documents in her hand with a troubled expression on her pretty face. “It feels like the Herrscher of Evolution creates the corresponding structure directly according to the needs.”
