Honkai Impact 3rd, but I have too many mods.

This is what she cares about most.

Although she seems to dislike Kiana, she actually sees Kiana as a junior.

Sirin's flowers... weren't quite ripe yet.

If she doesn't get a satisfactory answer, then she'll have to prepare an explanation for Cecilia.

"She's just asleep. She'll probably recover once we leave here. Although this body is related to me, I don't intend to take it over by force. I don't want to upset my mother or make things difficult for you, Auntie."

...To be honest, this girl is much more likable than Kiana.

Is this the difference between having been beaten and not having been beaten?

(Hmm... if that's the case, maybe Cecilia and I didn't beat him enough?)

Möbius's thoughts inexplicably wandered.

Xilin instinctively shivered.

Wait, did I say something wrong?

Does calling someone "Auntie" nowadays make Dr. Mebius angry?

Um... if we really look at birth years, the age difference between me and Dr. Mebius should be about ten years?

Chapter 191 The Difficulties of Treatment

"Let's install the cores first, otherwise the leaked Honkai energy is quite dangerous."

While Sirin was trembling with fear, Möbius looked away and took out several glass containers from his person—well, they looked transparent, so they could be commonly called "glass containers."

Liu Bai naturally had no objection to this, and Xilin also breathed a sigh of relief, resuming her conversation with her "resurrected" friends.

Being able to reconnect with and chat with her deceased friends was a delightful surprise for Celine.

As for the content of the conversation, it mostly revolved around the Babylon Laboratory. Although the group occasionally teased Sirin about how she had become like that without them, they didn't say anything that she had done anything wrong.

After all, they were tortured to death by inhumane experiments in the Babylonian laboratory. Normally, it would be fine for them to become evil spirits. If there is any dissatisfaction now, it is only with the indiscriminate killing and destruction after Sirin became a Herrscher of Law. Fortunately, Sirin eventually turned back.

After finishing their conversation, the group prepared to return to rescue Bella the dragon.

The group then used Sirin's teleportation to return to the frozen Benares.

“Speaking of which, who is this…” Peruverie glanced at Cocolia as she stepped out of the portal.

She had wanted to ask about this person's background for a long time.

How could anyone here not recognize Cocolia?

Of course, because she knew Cocolia, Peruvier wasn't particularly surprised to discover the differences between the two.

"Cocolia Rand, the alien Cocolia."

"...?"

Peruvian looked at Liu Bai with a "Are you still half asleep?" look.

"Literally, it means Cocolia from outer space." Bai sighed. How many times had he explained Cocolia's story now?

I feel like I'll have to explain this several more times in the future.

"No, even if you say that, 'Father,' it's still very strange."

Peruvieri did not show much doubt on her face, but spoke very calmly.

"Please don't talk about aliens or anything like that so casually. It's just common sense."

"Because going deeper would involve more inexplicable things... um, like, am I an alien too?"

"..."

These words made Peruvieri, who was about to say something, rub her temples.

"...Unexpectedly, it wasn't really surprising, no, it even felt like a sudden realization?"

Surrounded by so many powerful figures, with that magical kettle space and the summoned ancient phantoms, he could even obtain the Herrscher Core from the phantoms.

Although there was no detailed explanation, at least a understandable reason was given.

"I can't believe I'm accepting the 'aliens' reason... really."

“At least life has become more colorful?” Kafka said with a smile from the side.

That's undeniable.

Peruvée sighed.

Although she felt that life would be more colorful if Kujavina were dead.

Being with Liu Bai now... is like spilling a paint can—it's a bit too colorful.

“As a young girl, Peru, you are a bit lifeless.”

“Ms. Kafka, you don’t need to worry about that.” Peruvieri sighed before regaining her composure. “I’ll ask about the aliens later. Father, you should deal with Bellenas’s matter first.”

Peruvieri wasn't stupid. Speaking of aliens, if Cocolia beside her was an alien, then were the powerful figures she had never heard of, such as Yuki, Kafka, and Yomi, also aliens?

...And with Rita causing trouble, um, could I have accidentally joined some kind of "alien invasion plan"?

Despite her inner complaints, Peruvieri didn't really care. Whatever he did, as far as she was concerned, Liu Bai was making everyone around him live a better life, not worse.

"Sirin, you'll bestow the gift?" Bai asked Sirin, holding the Conquest Gem. "After all, you have experience."

“The situation back then is not the same as it is now… I don’t really have much experience in applying this concept.”

Her previous approach was to absorb the majority of the power herself and then distribute the smaller portions to others. Now, she's taking direct action... Given that her own strength is already weaker than it was back then, Sirin has virtually no confidence in perfectly bestowing the power upon them.

As for Liu Bai... although she didn't know what the so-called "prince" identity was all about, with the backing of the Honkai, he was definitely stronger than her in that aspect.

"Row."

Since Sirin had said so, Liu Bai didn't refuse. He had Cocolia unseal part of Benares's body, and then Liu Bai directly chose to use the medium, plunging the hand holding the Conquest Gem directly into Benares's body.

[Benares, Herrscher of Thunder Compatibility: 91%]

[Assigning verification...]

[Test passed!]

After all, Benares is a Honkai Beast, a natural "local". The so-called will check is pointless for her, not to mention that she was a pseudo-Herrscher for a period of time before.

Now it's just that it has completely inherited the power of a Herrscher and become a true Herrscher.

After the system notification ended, large thunderclouds gathered in the sky, momentarily overshadowing the snowstorm.

"...Hey, let's put aside the matter of bestowing Herrschers upon them." Peruvier seemed to have thought of something. "If I remember correctly, the birth of a Herrscher might trigger a Great Honkai due to the overflow of Honkai energy?"

"piece of cake!"

Liu Bai could not possibly admit that he had been negligent in this regard.

"Celine?"

"Leave it to me to control."

Sirin nodded, snapped her fingers, and teleported Benares directly into a purple Rubik's Cube space.

Ten minutes later, a silver-haired girl appeared out of nowhere next to the exhausted Sirin.

Bella joins the team

"……Owner?"

"I'm fine... It's been a long time, Bella."

Sirin smiled as she looked at the silver-haired girl beside her.

Does this mean all my friends have come back?

[Sirin's Affection Level: 1540]

Sirin's favorability also saw a significant increase.

"By the way, Bella, let me introduce you, this is..."

“Your Highness, I know.”

Bella nodded respectfully to Liu Bai, "It was His Highness the Prince who woke me up."

Based solely on the ability to grant Herrschers powers other than "End" and "Origin," this identity can be considered the highest-ranking entity in the current Honkai system, although it lacks substantial binding force.

Of course, when you're out in the world, you earn your own face. As long as Liu Bai has enough people around him, he'll be able to keep his composure—in reality, the Honkai system seems to have always been about "instinctive obedience."

For example, after Bella was born, all she had in mind was "loyalty to Sirin" and "destroying the world." As for whether Sirin had any power of life or death over Bella... well, it seems she didn't.

"Brother Liu Bai, Kiana is about to wake up. I'll leave Bella in your care. Bella, you must be a good girl and listen to Brother Liu Bai."

As she spoke, Sirin glanced at Mebius.

My main fear is that my aunt will put Bella on the lab table!

"It's nothing," Bai nodded.

Seeing this, Sirin finally felt relieved and forced herself to open a portal for everyone.

After returning to the ruins of the Babylonian laboratory, Sirin closed her eyes and collapsed into Liu Bai's arms.

"How are we going to explain this to her?" Mebius looked at Kiana, who was lying in Liu Bai's arms.

"It's just a dream." Bai looked at the girl's defenseless sleeping face in his arms and thought for a moment, "No matter what she asks, we'll just stick to the fact that it's a dream. Kiana's brain isn't up to the task most of the time anyway."

"..."

Mebius was speechless; those words were certainly direct.

Liu Bai then put all the irrelevant people back into the pot, and then carried Kiana into the car—there was really no place in the car for Kiana to lie down horizontally.

"Rita, can you help me carry it?"

Even though she's a paramecium, she still needs to be mindful of the proper distance between men and women. Besides... the "paramecium" part is just a joke. Kiana's hairstyle is a bit outdated, but a different hairstyle would instantly boost her charm by two levels.

"it is good."

Rita is practically Kiana's older sister, so there's no objection to that.

"Speaking of which, Doctor, do you have a way to solve Kiana's problem?"

Rita also learned that Cecilia sent Kiana over to solve Sirin's problem. Now that Sirin's "rising" level has obviously increased, there should be a way to deal with it, right?

"As for a solution, there is still one." After a brief moment of contemplation, Mebius nodded. "If I'm not mistaken, Sirin's consciousness should be at the core. Separating the core from the Herrscher... Although it's an unprecedented research project, it's not impossible from an operational standpoint."

"...Separate the core?"

This idea really surprised Rita.

"Yes, V, then I clone I a Lin body and put the core (stuff it in Wu, that's all, on the topic of tumor cultivation body V, I am definitely I stronger than Qi Otto."

To be honest, in Möbius's opinion, Otto Bio's main advantage in this area is the quality of its materials. If she were in charge, she could do a better job than Otto.

"Isn't that still Kiana's appearance? Even if there are differences in cloning, they can't be too different, right?"

“No, Kiana’s cloning genes mainly come from Bianca and Cecilia,” Möbius said, getting straight to the point.

Liu Bai nodded in agreement. In the original storyline, Kiana's clone genes came from Bianca.

Rita looked at the girl's sleeping face and nodded.

Okay, this girl doesn't really look like the Sirin we beat up before; she looks a lot like Bianca when she was little.

Bianca had white hair when she was a child, but one day she suddenly awakened her power, her talent increased greatly, and her hair turned golden and even became smooth.

Well, it's pretty impressive that the enhancement can turn white hair into blonde hair, since white hair is a manifestation of extremely high Honkai energy adaptability.

As for the reason... well, it's still unclear. Anyway, it won't do any harm, and there aren't many people who would actually put in the effort to investigate.

"Isn't this plan great?" Rita thought for a moment, and it seemed that there were no major problems with Mebius's plan.

"No, there is a problem, a very big problem—which one is the dominant personality, Sirin or Kiana?"

Mebius's question stunned everyone present, and even Peruvieri almost lost her grip on the steering wheel for a moment.

"……What's the meaning?"

"Rita, do you know that these human cloning experiments are never done in a single case? It's normal to do hundreds or thousands of cases at the same time as controls."

Mebius looked serious.
