Chapter 50: From Grandma Mobius to Little Sister Mobius—The Shrunken Mobius
🕑 Added 2025-04-08 09:11:00 +0000 UTCThis was the first time he had been someone’s backup plan.
But he didn’t refuse Mobius’s request, since he understood the reason behind it.
Without holding back, Chang Yuan threw a punch.
The result was gruesome, at least in Chang Yuan’s eyes.
Mobius’s body was now scattered in pieces.
But soon, Chang Yuan could feel the surrounding Honkai energy being drawn toward Mobius’s location.
In the next moment, Mobius’s body began to rapidly regenerate. Even though it had been in pieces, it quickly reformed.
However, since her body had been reconstructed, Mobius’s lab coat had naturally fallen off.
But clearly, the experiment wasn’t over, and Mobius didn’t care about her current state.
She glanced at Chang Yuan and said, "Again."
"Alright, alright. I don’t know what’s going through your mind, but fine."
After several hours, Mobius finally called an end to the experiment.
"The limit is 200 resurrections. Each time I resurrect, the surrounding Honkai energy drops by a level. The lower the energy, the longer it takes to resurrect. Also, each time I die and come back, my body seems to regress toward an embryonic state.
And each resurrection comes with an intense craving for energy. The more energy I lack, the more my body instinctively craves it, to the point where I lose control."
Looking at her now youthful body, which had regressed from her mature form, Mobius concluded her findings.
"Dr. Mobius, if you go out like this, won’t people think you have a secret child?"
Hearing Chang Yuan’s question, Mobius rolled her eyes.
"I don’t care what people think. I got what I wanted."
As she spoke, Mobius picked up her fallen lab coat and put it on.
The coat now dragged on the floor, as it was meant for her original, taller frame.
"Tch, I’ll have to get a new size. What a hassle."
Annoyed by the inconvenience, Mobius clicked her tongue and walked out of her lab without looking back.
However, the moment people saw Mobius walk out, they were stunned.
Rumors spread like wildfire.
Within half an hour, the entire Fire Moth was buzzing with the news that Mobius and the Vice Captain of the First Squad had a secret love child.
After all, the two of them had gone into the lab, and only a little girl had come out.
Who knew? Maybe Mobius had been hiding the child in the lab all along, and she had accidentally slipped out today.
Looking at the rumors spreading on Fire Moth’s internal network, Chang Yuan felt a headache coming on.
The rumors that should have been about Kalpas were now about him.
Seeing the barrage of calls from Elysia on his phone, Chang Yuan reluctantly answered.
"Hello—"
"Yuan! Since when did you and Mobius have a love child? How come I didn’t know? Was it a few years ago? Wait, no, the girl looks older than that. Mobius broke the law, did she know that?"
Before Chang Yuan could explain, Elysia bombarded him with questions.
Finally, when Elysia paused to catch her breath, Chang Yuan began to explain.
"Oh, I see. I knew Mobius did some unethical things, but I didn’t think she’d go that far. You scared me."
After hearing Chang Yuan’s explanation, Elysia let out a sigh of relief.
Thank goodness. What she had feared hadn’t happened.
"Wait, Mobius kept resurrecting? So you saw her naked?"
"Uh, yeah, I guess so."
"You! Couldn’t you have covered your eyes?!"
Hearing Chang Yuan’s guilty reply, Elysia felt a surge of anger.
How could this be? The first time Chang Yuan saw someone’s flawless body, it wasn’t hers—it was Mobius’s.
Ugh, my Yuan is no longer pure.
Elysia felt like crying. If only she hadn’t been so shy a few days ago and had stayed with Chang Yuan, she could have stopped this from happening.
"Well, I didn’t think about it at the time."
Feeling his face heat up, Chang Yuan scratched his cheek.
"I don’t care! Don’t let me see you for the next few days!"
Click—!
"...Wait, you’re not even my girlfriend yet, and you’re already acting like one? And since when does Elysia throw tantrums?
Wait, no—it’s probably because the game portrayed her as so perfect and flawless that I thought her personality was equally pristine.
But in reality, she’s human—or rather, a Herrscher with human emotions. So, having emotions and desires means she can throw tantrums too, I guess."
Rubbing his chin, Chang Yuan muttered to himself.
Just like in the original story, even the most rational Dr. Mei had, in her final moments, expressed her love for Kevin.
Many people thought Dr. Mei had used their child to manipulate Kevin, but in reality, she was afraid Kevin would have no reason to live.
Dr. Mei was terrified that Kevin might take his own life, so she gave him a child to give him a reason to keep going.
"So, how do I comfort a girl? I have no idea how to that."
As a guy who had been single his whole life, Chang Yuan had no clue how to console a girl.
"Tch, maybe I should ask the all-knowing Big V Teacher?"
Thinking of Vill-V, Chang Yuan remembered her seemingly limitless capabilities.
If you gave her a dating manual, she could probably become a master of romance.
"Seems like the only option. Let’s go."
With that, Chang Yuan rushed to the Spiral Workshop.
Meanwhile, Vill-V had already completed the prototypes of most of the Divine Keys, waiting only for the Herrscher cores to be embedded.
As a result, she was now working on something new—something that had never been mentioned in the future Chang Yuan had seen—to tip the scales further in humanity’s favor.
But all of this was interrupted by Chang Yuan barging in.
"Big V Teacher! Big V Teacher! Help me! It’s an emergency!"
Pushing open the door to the Spiral Workshop, Chang Yuan called out urgently.
Hearing Chang Yuan’s voice, Vill-V paused her thoughts and quickly jotted down her current ideas so she could pick up where she left off later.
