28. Miss Sirin's "Compassion"

“You’ve come at just the right time.” Einstein’s expression remained calm at all times. “New information about the Second Herrscher has arrived.”

"They've already arrived?" Mo Mo's heart tightened the moment Einstein spoke.

Does that mean a meteorite has already hit the sky?

“Details…” But Einstein’s expression remained largely unchanged.

"Hey, you messy-haired girl." The red-haired girl with twin tails waved her hand, interrupting Einstein's statement. "Who is this girl anyway? Judging from her appearance, could she be someone from Schicksal? Is it really okay to just spill the beans like this?"

As she spoke, she made no attempt to hide her distrustful gaze at Mo Mo. Brandishing the small knife in her hand, this girl with twin ponytails looked like someone to be trifled with.

“That’s true. Let me give you a brief introduction.” Einstein nodded slightly. “You’ve already met the person lying in bed. He is none other than our leader, Anti-Entropy.”

When mentioning the phrase "lying in bed," Einstein seemed to emphasize it slightly.

Wearing headphones and remaining silent, Walter could only manage a wry smile, pretending not to hear and continuing to read the book in his hands.

Then she pointed to the red-haired man with pigtails, "This is Dr. Tesla, one of the high-ranking members of Anti-Entropy."

It's another name that resonates far and wide, that physicist who has been almost deified.

Of course, like Einstein, it was missing a key component.

"That's it?" Tesla put down the knife and slammed her fist on the table. "Hey, you messy-haired guy, you should at least tell me about my glorious achievements, right?"

“I already said it was just a brief introduction.” Einstein sighed, ignoring Tesla’s request, and then pointed to Mo Mo. “This is Mo Mo… Miss. She doesn’t belong to any organization and is temporarily working with us for the same purpose.”

"Please address me as 'sir'!" Mo Mo said seriously, correcting Einstein's mistake.

[Pfft, look at you, calling yourself "sir."]

【...】

"Sir...?" Tesla scrutinized Mo Mo intently, his gaze lingering particularly on that prominent part of his body, his expression gradually turning strange. "Hey, you wouldn't happen to be...?"

Even Walter glanced up at Mo Mo before quickly looking away.

The questioning gaze and tone deeply stung Mo Mo's heart. He immediately reached for his waist, but quickly stopped and began to look around.

“Don’t worry, Mr. Momo… at least it’s very safe here.” Einstein explained, seeing through Momo’s concerns.

"That's good..." Regardless of what others might say, at least Einstein is trustworthy. Mo Mo immediately drew out the card, causing the purple figure to disappear into layers of afterimages.

"Clap."

Tesla dropped the apple from his hand. His mouth unconsciously widened, and his red-rimmed glasses, matching his hair color, tilted slightly. Walter's stealth glances also increased.

"W-what's this?" Tesla asked Einstein urgently, not even bothering to pick up the apple that had fallen to the ground. "Hey, you scraggly guy, did you see that?"

“This isn’t the first time I’ve seen this.” Einstein glanced at Tesla, a hint of superiority in his expression. “But even so, I’m still curious… how did they manage to do that?”

"To replace everything about oneself with another completely different existence is simply unbelievable..." Tesla saw through the "essence" at a glance and muttered to himself.

Could it be that belt...?

Einstein and Tesla both turned their attention to the silver belt around Mo Mo's waist.

The system instantly sensed danger: [Something's wrong, I'm outta here!]

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the silver belt vanished instantly.

"......"*2.

Both gazes simultaneously withdrew, their eyes filled with regret but not surprise.

After all, we've already seen enough amazing scenes.

【Oh my god, Mo Zai, do you know what happened? I just felt a real sense of danger, it was more terrifying than a hundred Xilins!】

Don't be afraid, I'll protect you! With me here, they won't dare do anything to you.

After offering a few words of comfort to the system, Mo Mo spoke again, "I'm sorry, this is a matter of personal privacy, and I cannot disclose the detailed reasons. Please understand..."

“Don’t worry about it, Mr. Momo, this has no impact on our cooperation.” Einstein was very sensible and didn’t delve into it. “Then let’s continue our previous topic. According to the intelligence transmitted back by the satellite, the dragon-type Honkai Beast Benares has taken the Second Herrscher out of the atmosphere. We are not able to use weapons that can effectively strike outside the atmosphere for the time being.”

"..." Mo Mo did not speak, but listened in silence.

“But it didn’t stop; instead, it went to a much more distant place.” Einstein paused slightly, then softly uttered a single word, “The Moon.”

coming.

“We currently have no way to observe the Second Herrscher’s exact actions on the moon, but there is no doubt that she did not go to such a distant place on a whim.”

Mo Mo was fully aware of this.

There, Sirin will complete her final transformation and sublimation.

"And not long ago, our people observed a strange electromagnetic signal emanating from the moon." A hint of gloom finally crept onto Einstein's usually impassive expression. "According to the analysis, it was a message from the Second Herrscher. The message's content is..."

"Come see me on the moon, First Herrscher. If you don't come, I'll send four meteorites back to Earth every 72 hours. You can question whether I have this ability, but only if you can bear the consequences. Don't keep me waiting too long, okay? I don't have much patience ☆~"

"That concludes the information." Einstein paused, looked at Mo Mo, and conveyed his meaning with his eyes. "Mr. Mo Mo, what are your thoughts?"

"..." Mo Mo sensed something was off. "She said that meteorites would be sent to Earth every 72 hours?"

Does that mean no meteorite has fallen yet?

What exactly is this...?

Why isn't she doing that now?

Undeterred by this fleeting joy, Mo Mo was filled with deep doubt.

“That’s the problem. If she really had that ability, she should have shown her power first. In your Chinese terms, it would be like making an example of someone. As a Herrscher, she has no reason to show us any mercy,” Einstein continued. “But not only did she not do that, she even gave us three days to prepare. There must be a reason for that.”

“We have two guesses right now,” Tesla continued. “First, she doesn’t have the ability at all; she’s just bluffing to buy time to recover her strength. Second, it’s a trap to lure the Alliance Leader into a fighting environment that’s favorable to her. I personally lean towards the second one.”

"Mr. Momo, what are your thoughts?" Einstein asked.

"..."

Facing the gazes and questions of two "mythical" figures, Mo Mo had a strange feeling.

"Is it possible..." Mo Mo scratched his chin, uncertainly offering his guess, "that she softened her heart?"

29. My name is Mo Xiaoming. What can I do for you?

"Is it possible..." Mo Mo said uncertainly, "that she softened her heart?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the other three people in the room simultaneously turned their gazes to Mo Mo, their expressions strange.

Tesla stands out in particular.

[Soft-hearted?]

"Soft-hearted?"

Are you serious?

"Are you serious?"

If you say another word, I'll have them tear you apart right now.

【...】

The system promptly shut its mouth.

But Tesla isn't so honest.

“My friend, I don’t mean to be rude, but you should be fine here, right?” Tesla pointed to his head with a strange expression.

[No wonder it's Tesla; he saw right through your idiocy at a glance!]

【...】

Wait, I'm sorry, I'll shut up, you can continue.

Before Mo Mo could utter a word, the system wisely admitted its mistake and completely shut his mouth.

"Alright, Dr. Tesla, let's let Mr. Momo finish speaking first." Einstein steered the conversation back on track. "Mr. Momo, what is your basis for saying that?"

"Based on..." Mo Mo thought for a moment, not wanting to say it was just his intuition, "She saved me, otherwise I would have been torn to pieces by now."

Momo told others what Nefit Seven had told him.

Although he himself found it hard to believe, Mo Mo still believed that Nefit Seven would not deceive him.

That must have been Sirin's doing.

"..."

After listening to Mo Mo's condensed explanation, they all fell into deep thought.

“If Mr. Momo’s arguments are true, then the Second Herrscher’s behavior does indeed present a clear contradiction,” Einstein said first. “Mr. Momo’s opinion is not unreasonable and can be taken into consideration.”

“I disagree,” Tesla retorted immediately. “This is just an isolated case, well… perhaps the Second Herrscher spared his life for some reason.”

"For some reason?" Einstein glanced at Tesla. "What's Dr. Tesla's opinion?"

"Huh? It's, it's that, that..." Tesla stammered, his cheeks gradually turning a shade that resembled his hair. "Hey, you messy hair! That's enough!"

“Sigh…” Einstein sighed, ignoring Tesla’s outburst. “Mr. Momo has had the longest contact with the Second Herrscher and has a deeper understanding of the Second Herrscher than we do. I think his opinions are worth considering, but Dr. Tesla’s opinions cannot be ignored either. Perhaps Mr. Momo has a special significance to the Second Herrscher, which is why he has gone to such lengths… What do you think, Lord Alliance Leader?”

"..." Sensing Einstein's gaze, Walter took off his headphones, closed the book in his hand, glanced at the three people present, and finally uttered his first line.

What were you talking about just now?

"..."

"..."

"..."

"It's like this, Lord Alliance Leader..." In order to be quick, Einstein had to repeat it again with gestures and words.
