I am Möbius's sister.

Taking a deep breath, Sirin prepared to cast her swing, but just then, a thought flashed through her mind. Wait a minute, as a Herrscher with multiple cores, she seems to be able to mass-produce pseudo-Herrscher cores.

The core of the pseudo-Herrscher, which contains power, is extremely precious.

Once the idea popped into her head, it lingered in Sirin's mind. So she immediately stopped what she was doing, gathered the Honkai energy in her body, and formed an irregular Honkai energy crystal in the palm of her right hand.

He then transferred some of the Herrscher of Thunder's powers into his own Herrscher core.

When the power came into contact with the dense Honkai energy crystal, it formed an unstable field. The surrounding imaginary matter also entered the Honkai energy crystal. Sirin could sense that the Honkai energy crystal had established an unstable channel with the imaginary space.

Although the passage was narrow and unstable, it also showed that Sirin's experiment was successful. She had indeed created a pseudo-Herrscher core, although this core was neither complete nor stable.

Meanwhile, Sirin discovered that the powers that had been transferred from her core were being replenished at an extremely rapid pace, and she felt that some of her blood was missing. And that missing blood was being replenished at an equally rapid rate.

This discovery gave Sirin a glimmer of hope. If that were the case, wouldn't she be able to mass-produce these pseudo-Herrscher cores? If that were the case, wouldn't high-quality bait be inexhaustible?

Upon making this exciting discovery, Sirin immediately beamed with joy and placed the imperfect pseudo-Herrscher core she had created in front of the hook.

When the hook completely absorbed the pseudo-Herrscher core, she noticed that the color of the bait had changed, from green to blue and then to purple. After turning purple, it inexplicably turned blue again, and this time it was a deep blue.

Regarding this change, Xilin guessed that the quality of the bait should be between blue and purple. Although it was a bit of a pity that it wasn't purple, it was enough for her!

"This is the last time I'll try!" With her cat tail clenched tightly around her buttocks, Sirin exerted her strength and flung the fishing hook and line into the Quantum Sea.

In the vast, empty quantum sea, the fishing hook and line transformed into a beam of light that shot straight toward the deepest part of the quantum sea, its speed increasing rapidly. In terms of speed in real space, after accelerating for more than ten minutes, it had already surpassed the speed of light.

This beam of light travels through the vast ocean of quantum mechanics, passing through projections of worlds and world bubbles, as if it is searching for something, as if something is attracting it, or perhaps it has no purpose at all.

It was just wandering aimlessly.

Suddenly the fishing hook stopped, as if something was attracting it.

The beam of light that the fishhook transformed into slowly expanded, enveloping the thing drifting in the Sea of ​​Quanta.

It was a sleeping girl.

"Hmm?" At this moment, at the bottom of the Quantum Sea, an old ancestor's eyes sharpened, realizing that things were not simple. With a thought, he attached a wisp of his consciousness to the girl shrouded in the pillar of light.

A moment later, the beam of light gradually receded, and the girl who had been drifting in the Sea of ​​Quanta disappeared without a trace. At this moment, the old ancestor sat cross-legged on the ground, calming his mind and beginning to sense his own consciousness through quantum entanglement.

But after a moment he realized that no matter what he did, he could no longer sense his own consciousness, as if some force had blocked it and caused it to fall into silence.

……

Meanwhile, Xilin was still excited about the big fish taking the bait. The pull was much stronger than the previous pulls combined. She didn't know what good thing she had caught, but she was determined not to let this opportunity pass her by.

So Xilin used all her strength to pull the fishing rod back.

Finally! Through Celine's tireless efforts, she pulled the big fish out of the water!

An excited Celine looked closely, but her smile froze on her face. At the same time, the system notification sounded.

[Congratulations! You've caught a rare item! This rare item is favored by the Quantum Sea and will influence the course of a certain world line! It comes with its own anchor coordinates.]

Why did she fish out a person?!

She managed to fish such a huge person out of the Sea of ​​Quanta?

Come to think of it, this person looks familiar. Who is he again?

Sirin recalled her fragmented memories of her past life and finally caught a name—Shilly Voller.

Damn it, how did she manage to fish this guy out? Speaking of which, she brought Seele here, so what will happen to Seele's original world?

Just as Celine was pondering, the little guy on the ground groggily sat up.

Chapter 145 Xi'er Awakens

"Seele...where am I?" The girl named Seele touched her groggy head and looked around.

[Silly Seele! Get up! There are enemies here! And very powerful enemies!]

"Wh...what?" Hearing Black Seele's anxious reminder in her mind, Seele's previously confused mind cleared up considerably, and she quickly stood up from the ground. Immediately afterward, Black Seele's voice rang in Seele's mind again.

[Stupid Seele! That person is behind you!]

Seele quickly turned around, but she froze on the spot after just one glance. The enemy before her was quite different from what she had imagined. Black Seele was undoubtedly strong, but she had expected an enemy that could make her so nervous to be something incredibly terrifying.

However, she did not expect that this formidable enemy was actually a seemingly delicate young girl.

[Seele! Don't let your guard down!]

Just as Seele was letting her guard down a bit, Black Seele's reminder brought her back to her guard.

At this moment, Black Seele was extremely anxious. Her intuition told her that the girl with long purple hair and wearing a maid outfit was extremely dangerous, and Seele had no way to deal with that person. Even she... probably couldn't handle it.

Even if the other party did not show any hostility towards them, the power and aura they possessed were enough to make people's hearts tremble. Moreover, the other party was someone who could pull them out of the Quantum Sea. No matter what, they could not defeat them. Making any rash moves would only bring disaster.

What should we do...?

For the first time, Hei Xier felt utterly powerless. After careful consideration, she decided to take the initiative to communicate with the other party. Since she couldn't win in a fight and the other party didn't seem to have any ill intentions towards them, proactively communicating to resolve the conflict was undoubtedly the best option.

With this in mind, Black Seele decided to temporarily relinquish control of Seele's body to herself, allowing her to communicate with the purple-haired girl. Although she couldn't defeat the girl, having her communicate with her would ensure that they wouldn't be powerless to retaliate should anything change.

[Seele, relinquish control of your body to me for now, let me deal with her.]

“But…” Seele hesitated.

[There are no "buts." Can't you forcibly switch personalities? I can't completely possess your body.]

"No, that's not it, Seele... Seele was just worried about you... You told me, that's a very powerful enemy." Seele explained anxiously.

Hearing this, Black Seele fell silent. She hadn't expected Seele to be worried about her. Typical of you, silly Seele.

[Don't worry, I'll be fine. Okay, hurry up and hand over control of your body to me, you idiot Seele.]

"Ah."

……

Sirin put away her fishing rod and looked with interest at Seele, who was standing in front of her warily. As a Herrscher, her perception was extremely strong, and she could sense that the life form of the girl in front of her was completely different from that of an ordinary person.

Although the girl appears no different from a normal person, her life form is in a quantum state. A body composed of quantum states should not be a physical entity, but the girl's existence is quite unique.

Although she is a quantum-state life form, she is blessed by the quantum sea and possesses a vast and mysterious energy that can support the girl's leap from the quantum level to a level sufficient to maintain a physical body.

In short, the girl named Seele is quite special. If she were handed over to Dr. Mei for research, well, there would definitely be some unexpected discoveries. Moreover, if she remembered correctly, Seele was also a natural-born Stigmata holder. If she were to study her, it should be possible to reverse engineer her and deduce the technology behind the Stigmata.

Thinking about it this way, Seele was a real treasure to them. Sirin's gaze towards Seele began to turn strange.

Suddenly, Sirin's expression changed slightly. She sensed a significant shift in Seele's aura; a madness and bloodlust emanated from the girl, while her previous peace and tranquility vanished. Seele's azure eyes had also turned crimson.

It seems this is Seele's second personality emerging. She wondered why the other person was standing still; it appears they were communicating with their second personality. Was this a preemptive strike? Sirin watched the other person with great interest.

Although Seele is a special form of life, Sirin doesn't care much about her. Her intuition tells her that Seele doesn't pose much of a threat to her.

“I think we might be able to talk.” The two looked at each other and remained silent for a long time before [Seele] finally broke the silence.

Hearing [Seele] say this, Sirin's impression of her improved somewhat. Instead of immediately taking action, was she preparing to test the other party's level of friendliness? A wise decision.

Sirin's lips curled up slightly as she said, "I mean you no harm. Welcome to this world."

To show her sincerity, Sirin extended her hand to [Seele].

"Mm." Nodding, [Seele] extended her hand to Sirin.

At the same time, the two of them simultaneously lifted their feet and walked towards each other.

When Seele's hand and Sirin's hand were tightly clasped together, Seele felt even more the terrifying and powerful force contained within Sirin. She was glad that she had remained calm and had not acted impulsively.

If she wasn't mistaken, that power belonged to a Herrscher, and a very powerful one at that. Even Herrschers from previous civilizations might not have been as strong as her. The data contained within the Stigmata allowed [Seele] to roughly estimate Sirin's strength.

After a moment, the two withdrew their hands at the same time. Although [Seele] knew that she was no match for Sirin, she was still wary and did not completely trust her.

Celine was aware of this, but she didn't pay much attention to it. After all, you can't expect someone you've only just met to trust you.

"Your name is Xier, right? It's nice to meet you. My name is Xilin." Xilin introduced herself to Xier with a smile.

"How do you know my name is Seele?" [Seele] frowned, looking puzzled. She was certain that neither she nor Seele had ever met each other, and the other person was from a different world. How could they possibly know Seele's name?

And Sirin... that name sounds strangely familiar, like she's heard it somewhere before.

"As for how I know, don't ask, it's a secret. Okay, let's get back to the point. This isn't your original world anymore; it's a new timeline. But don't worry about not being able to go back. There are imaginary anchor points within you, and you'll automatically return when the time comes. In the meantime, why not take a look around this world?"

Looking at the smiling Sirin, [Xier] nodded. Even if she didn't want to, she had no choice; she still needed Sirin to take her away from here.

Chapter 146 Oh no! Hide quickly!

After packing her things, Sirin casually waved her hand and opened a portal to the Real Space. To impress Seele, she even used extra Honkai Energy to make the portal look more high-end and impressive.

Purple lightning flashed, and the portal was surrounded by dense circuit patterns. When you approached it, the large amount of Honkai energy it contained always brought a sense of danger and oppression to living beings.

Although it consumed a lot of Honkai energy, making the portal look somewhat impractical, it did achieve half of the effect Sirin wanted. Seele was genuinely surprised that Sirin could casually create such a powerful-looking portal.

As for why it was only half, it's because Kurohime realized that the portal was merely a flashy but impractical device, with a lot of Honkai energy being used for special effects. She didn't understand why Sirin did this; she could clearly reduce Honkai energy consumption. However, Kurohime didn't say anything, but Sirin must have had her reasons.

Sirin led Seele through the portal, returning from the imaginary space to the real space.

The scenery in the imaginary space was too desolate and bizarre; the scenery in the real space was much more colorful. This was what Sirin thought after returning to the real space. She had grown tired of spending the past few hours in the imaginary space.

But speaking of which, what time is it now?

Celine looked up at the clock in her room and realized it was almost ten o'clock.

Celine's heart skipped a beat. If it was past ten o'clock, Möbius should be back by now. Oh no, oh no, she'd been fishing for so long she'd completely forgotten that Möbius was coming back tonight to... oops, to be slept with by her.

Then Sirin looked at Seele beside her and immediately regretted it. Why had she caught someone while fishing? And such a beautiful young girl at that! Wouldn't Möbius misunderstand her again?

Oh no, oh no! Remembering how angry Möbius was when she brought Ekaterina here before, Sirin felt a terrible headache coming on.

Now she could only hope that Möbius wouldn't return so soon, and that she could use this time to quickly settle Seele down. Otherwise, if Möbius found out, she would be truly finished.

Just then, Celine heard the sound of a lock being opened on the door. Of course, Isa couldn't possibly have a key. So there was only one truth: Möbius had returned!

"Hide quickly! Hide quickly!" In a panic, Sirin quickly opened the portal to the Imaginary Space and hurriedly urged Seele to let her hide in the Imaginary Space first.

However, before Seele could enter the imaginary space, the room door was opened.

Mebius entered the room with a happy expression, but her face fell instantly when she saw the scene before her.

She sneered as she slowly approached Xilin, her anger turning into a mocking laugh.

“Well done, Sirin, you did a good job. I thought you locked the door to surprise me, but you really did give me a big surprise. You were cheating on me with another woman? Tell me! Who is that woman? If you can't explain…” Möbius murmured, giving Sirin a dangerous smile. That smile sent a chill down Sirin’s spine.

She knew perfectly well that if she didn't provide a convincing explanation to Möbius, she might end up being the one being taken advantage of, not the other way around. Absolutely not!
