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

If the world were to end tomorrow, Qingque would probably be playing mahjong all night.

"Can't we make instant noodles here? Why did you take away the hot water? Ha—"

Qingque couldn't help but let out a long yawn.

"It's probably because of Mei's inner conviction."

Vilvi spoke with a serious expression, spouting nonsensical remarks.

Clearly exhausted, Qingque had no intention of paying her any attention.

"Lord Liu Bai is here too... This is truly a rare guest."

"You're making it sound like I don't care about you at all."

Liu Bai looked Qing Que up and down. "Qing Que... were you working overtime just now?"

"...Alright, I know what you're going to say, Lord Liu Bai. My mind is still perfectly fine; the problem might lie with you."

Despite looking tired, Qingque's mind remained sharp.

The implication was that Liu Bai should keep an eye on his woman—namely, Kafka.

(Hiding from Kaffa... If that's the case, this is indeed a good place.)

"Your fortune teller might be moved to tears if he sees this."

"The Grand Diviner wouldn't be the kind and benevolent elder he is; he'd just confidently continue assigning me tasks..."

Qingque spoke ill of her former boss without any restraint.

Then, Qingque slumped down and sat down next to Liu Bai.

"By the way, when did you arrive? Was it to avoid other women?"

Why is it that in these people's eyes, being out in other places at night is considered hiding from women?

...Well, Liu Bai knew the answer perfectly well and didn't need anyone else to answer it.

"No, it's also because of official business—by the way, Qingque, which department are you working overtime in tonight?"

"The stars...they asked me to observe space."

"It's probably because of the energy tides."

Liu Bai understood quickly, "Any results?"

"Results... Yes, I observed something that might be a star nucleus."

Qingque listlessly picked up the water that Liu Bai had drunk from and drank it all in one gulp.

...This person looked as if he had burned out and turned into snow-white ash.

Moreover, he said something extraordinary in a calm tone.

"..."

Why is everyone so quiet?

Qingque's deadpan eyes swept over the two people present.

"Because you said something really shocking."

Although Vilvie has not been there long, she has already entered the core group and has naturally been educated about what a star core is.

So even though Vilvie was somewhat exasperated by Qingque's indifferent tone, she sighed and looked on helplessly.

"Can you tell me more about it?"

"Details... um..."

A hint of seriousness appeared on Qingque's listless face. "Based on my personal speculation... the star core will not fall on this planet."

"...Is it a trajectory?"

Vervi was slightly surprised by the result.

"No, it's that the point where that thing lands might not be in the 'material world'."

Qingque, who was slumped over like Ge You, straightened up slightly before collapsing back down.

But what he said was so clear that even a layman like Liu Bai could understand it, let alone Wilvie.

If this world is divided according to "boundaries"... it's actually not that complicated.

The current "material world" is a sea of ​​quantum numbers and a tree of imaginary numbers.

"This isn't a joke, is it? Sister Qingque, how did you calculate that?"

"...My special method."

Qingque lay limply, as if she might faint at any moment.

In reality, Qingque himself created a low-level, one-off, beggar's version of the Qiong Guan Formation without any sponsorship from the erudite patron.

And since there was no Jade Sign to act as the CPU, Qingque stepped up and became the CPU himself... Well, actually this could probably be called the ancient divination method of the Immortal Ship.

However, there is no doubt that Qingque can steadily take over Fu Xuan's position as long as she gets a little bit of luck.

Even without the right opportunity, one can at least achieve a result similar to "following the established rules".

In short, Qingque's beggar's version of the Qiong Guan Formation... while its accuracy isn't guaranteed, the fact that it can lock in this possibility means that the probability of this result occurring is not small.

Qingque is still able to remain so calm... partly because she's exhausted.

On the other hand, Qingque couldn't say whether this was a good thing or a bad thing.

After all, compared to the planetary region, the Imaginary Tree and the Quantum Sea are obviously much larger. A mere star core whose influence is basically limited to the planet's core would only cause a small ripple if it were thrown in.

However, from another perspective, even if the quantum sea and the imaginary tree are just "local fluctuations," they could potentially destroy several galaxies at once.

Lacking actual knowledge, Qingque could only deduce this matter using rudimentary logic.

However, sometimes, simple logic means that there's nothing wrong with saying something either way.

"..."

Liu Bai also fell into deep thought at this moment.

He also sensed something subtle about this matter.

However, compared to Qingque, he was certain that this was definitely worse than a direct fall.

Otherwise, this wouldn't be such an extremely difficult plot.

"...Ah, Lord Liu Bai, aren't you going to eat noodles? Give me a bite."

Qingque listlessly picked at the bowl and chopsticks in front of Liu Bai.

Noodle?

What kind of noodles?

Liu Bai was stunned for a moment. In that short time, Qing Que had already shoveled the "maggot instant noodles" in front of Liu Bai in front of her.

"Suck it~"

-

"……I'm back."

When Mei returned with a steaming bowl of instant noodles, she suddenly noticed that the atmosphere in the room was a bit off.

"Whoa! What is that thing wriggling around on the ground?!"

"Bluebird."

"Strictly speaking, it was Qingque who ate the noodles you made."

Liu Bai and Wei Erwei finished off Mei one after another.

"So this is what happens after eating this stuff... Is it funny or scary?"

Although its life nature changed, Qingque did not undergo direct mutation; it simply lost its mind and began to wriggle and twist around.

I'd say... it's pretty good?

Although he has lost his mind, he seems to be in good spirits.

As for the idea that injuries can regenerate in the form of maggots... Liu Bai hasn't tried it yet, and doesn't want to try it.

It feels a bit bizarre.

"..."

Mei, who was initially quite happy, immediately became complicated upon hearing this.

She... really didn't expect that anyone other than Liu Bai would eat her food.

—Mei may want to portray herself as a clueless anime character, but in reality, Mei is quite shrewd.

"...You two didn't force-feed Sister Qingque noodles for the sake of the experiment, did you?"

"Rather than saying it was forced down, it's more accurate to say that Qingque herself didn't realize it..."

Liu Bai sighed.

What can we do?

"However, Qingque just mentioned something very important, which we need to discuss later."

-

The next day.

"Get up."

In his dazed state, Liu Bai felt a soft little hand pressing against his face.

then……

Squeeze and twist hard.

"She woke up quite quickly."

Hei Ta looked at Liu Bai with satisfaction, "You actually stayed here all night."

"Would you believe me if I said I was afraid you'd get lost?"

"hehe."

Black Tower was too lazy to engage in such a low-level argument with Liu Bai.

"Don't you think you're quite happy too?"

Hei Ta pointed to the bulge under the blanket on Liu Bai's body.

"..."

Liu Bai belatedly lifted the lid to take a look.

Greenbird.

Fortunately, the clothes were intact.

After all, even if insects have that kind of desire, they can't show it.

Perhaps because the blanket had been lifted, creating a temperature difference, Qingque let out a soft moan.

"want……"

She's still talking in her sleep... Although Qingque is only cute in terms of size, isn't the cutest thing about a loli?

...This is absolutely not a declaration of crime.

So it's even cuter to smack your lips and talk in your sleep—especially now, in stark contrast to the usual Qingque.

But then again, what does Qingque want in her dream?

In any case, Qingque's achievement yesterday was a great accomplishment.

Liu Bai also planned to give Qing Que a reward or a surprise.

"One of the Eights..."

You want chicken, huh? Little did I know that Qingque has already started having unhealthy dreams.

There was no other way but to reluctantly take off my pants.
