"Yes, our contributions are disproportionate. According to the education I received, there is no unilateral contribution in the world, but your attitude gives me a headache." Sakura became serious and spoke out all her recent insights.
"In terms of strength, I am far inferior to you. Even if I become a fusion warrior, I will most likely not be your opponent. In terms of power, I am just an assassin. Even Velvet is more valuable than me."
She said a lot of things, which could be considered as heartfelt words, because assassins would not say these things and would only observe quietly.
"Yeah, so what do I want from you?" Ryan propped up his head and glanced at the girl. She was sitting cross-legged. Her loose neckline revealed her delicate collarbone, and her unmade-up face looked pure and elegant.
Am I investing for the future, to cling to the powerful hero of [Moment]?
This idea was very realistic once, but now it seems very ridiculous. Not to mention the difference in strength between the two sides, just what Ryan is doing now is equivalent to being a thigh. There is no need for Alicia, the Thirteen Heroes are slowly taking shape in his hands.
He didn't even need Mei, the Fire Moth was being transformed according to his ideas, and many things had become unrecognizable.
"So Sakura, do you want to repay me?"
"At least I can have peace of mind. You can make any request." Sakura breathed softly. Even if Ryan ordered her to take off her clothes, in addition to contempt, at least she could return to the common sense of the past.
And this possibility is very high. She observed for a long time and found that the biggest problem of this man is "lust".
Ryan looked the girl up and down, brushing her long pink hair, her rosy lips, her delicate collarbone and the slightly raised T-shirt. Her white, slender legs were also very attractive.
After a long silence, he spoke softly: "Then pour me a cup of tea."
"What did you say?" Ying seemed not to have heard clearly. The other party had done so much just for this little thing.
"Pour the tea, pour it carefully, and we'll be even," Ryan repeated.
"That's all?"
"Otherwise, what else can I do?"
"I thought you were going to..."
"Stop. I told you I'm an artist and scientist who specializes in satisfying people's dark and profound fantasies. Do you want to underestimate me?"
Of course Ying would not look down on Ryan, she just did not understand. She reached out her hand hesitantly, picked up the teapot, and poured the emerald green tea into the cup.
Her movements were gentle and light, as if she had undergone rigorous training, and every move was filled with elegance.
The teacup is half full, like a green pond, dotted with red petals, giving it a unique flavor.
Ryan picked up the teacup and took a sip. In addition to the thickness and bitterness of the tea, there was also a hint of sweet floral fragrance. The two flavors mixed together made him close his eyes comfortably.
"Good tea, you must have made this flower before."
"I pickled the cherry blossoms from my hometown. The taste will be more unique and will make Ling like drinking tea. No, you haven't answered my question yet."
"I've already answered that." Ryan pointed at the teacup and smiled gently: "I treat you with sincerity, and you treat me with sincerity. Our gains and contributions are equal, and no one suffers a loss."
"But......"
Ying wanted to say that she was just pouring a cup of tea, but Ryan arranged everything for Ling perfectly and there was nothing wrong with it. However, as a talented person, she also understood what Ryan was saying.
Ignoring the value of the matter itself, everyone gets along with each other sincerely and there is no distinction between high and low.
"Ryan, you really are a weird person, but if I say more, I'll sound hypocritical. Let's put it this way, even if one day our interests conflict, I will try my best to stand by your side." Ying took a breath, as if she had made up her mind.
"Don't worry, our interests are always the same. Of course, I don't mind if some personal feelings are mixed in. I always feel that I have won one over Alicia." Ryan smiled, raised his teacup, and took a sip comfortably.
I thought to myself that I was a more powerful version of Alicia, without the emotional passion, but with a bit more cold rationality.
Ying didn't question it, and made Ryan another cup of tea. She walked into the house barefoot, and came back soon with a laptop.
"I thought you didn't like talking about work at home."
"I don't like it, but this is also a thank you to you. A cup of tea can't make it fair. Don't treat me as a fool." Ying smiled, sat next to Ryan, turned on the computer, and inserted a data disk.
"I used the decoder that Wilvi gave me to hack into the terminal of the mobile branch, and verified it with the information given by Dr. Mei. I confirmed that the Judgment-level Honkai beast that escaped from the sea is nearby. Look, this is its information."
"Shesha?" Ryan also remembered what Calis had said to him. When they conquered the Third Herrscher, her companion beast actually survived.
"Yes. Apart from occasionally attacking villages along the Australian coast, it has been hiding on a deserted island. The Fire Moths have failed to capture it several times."
Sounds very cunning.
Ryan knew that the Herrscher and the upper Honkai beasts had no humanity and there was no possibility of them "turning from darkness to light", but this did not mean that they had no intelligence.
Ying slid the mouse wheel, and the observation and analysis report flashed by quickly, accompanied by some blurry pictures. Ryan couldn't help but adjust his glasses and put his head closer to the screen.
It was a giant black snake, like a monster in mythology, with lightning floating around its body and black mud surging around it.
"Judgment-level snake, it's not the material for Mobius."
Ryan scratched his face. He could predict many things, but he couldn't remember what kind of Honkai beast each Yingjie used, because the names were too difficult to remember. He was only responsible for recycling the materials, and when Mebius took them for genetic matching, he would be able to find a suitable one, but this snake really had some impression.
"Let's start with this one. As the companion beast of the Third Herrscher, its ability should be related to electromagnetic force, which I am more familiar with."
It's more than just familiarity. What's the difference between you and the Third Herrscher?
Sakura glanced at Ryan secretly, but she was not as curious as Mebius. She stretched out her slender fingers and tapped the screen: "When [Shesha] was observed for the fifth time, the detector showed a peak in Houkai concentration."
Ryan suddenly perked up and took a closer look at the parabola that suddenly jumped up.
"2200HW? A Judgment-level Honkai Beast can reach this level? Are you sure it's not the Herrscher's arrival?" Ryan raised his eyebrows. In fact, even a Judgment-level Honkai Beast's energy is weaker than that of a Herrscher. According to the classification of the Fire Moth, 2000HW is the limit of a Herrscher.
"Because it dissipated too quickly, and apart from a fleet being swept in, it didn't cause much damage. If it was the Herrscher, several surrounding port cities would have been completely destroyed." Ying didn't quite understand, so she just read from the document:
"The Fire Moth only determined that the energy came from two carriers. It is speculated that the two high-level Honkai beasts gathered together, causing a detection error."
Get together?
Ryan was silent. This was contrary to the previous research of the Fire Moth. The higher-level Honkai beasts all acted alone, and it was impossible to use the human social form to apply to these strange creatures.
Even though they are companion beasts of the Herrscher, they will not show any sense of closeness, let alone a sense of hierarchy.
Otherwise, there would be no need for a Herrscher. As long as there is an existence that can unite all the Honkai beasts in the world and cause trouble together, the Fire Moth would be in great trouble.
"The intelligence department of the Fire Moth is currently studying it, but there is already a precedent. Look at this intelligence." Ying typed on the keyboard, and some pictures and secret information popped up.
In the third Northern European crusade, it was confirmed that two emperor-level Honkai beasts acted together, one lured and the other ambushed, and the number of casualties was...
Ryan read it out slowly, his eyebrows furrowed tighter and tighter, and blurted out: "Search all the information to see when this anomaly appeared."
"I've checked."
"When?"
Sakura slowly turned her head and answered in a strange tone.
"After the Third Herrscher was defeated."
Chapter 104 Chi Xiao and Han Ying
After the Third Herrscher was defeated, some abnormalities appeared in the habits of the Honkai beasts.
In the next few days, Ryan kept repeating this sentence, and some bad premonitions became reality, but the changes were so subtle that they were difficult to notice.
There was no expression on his face. He continued to cook, chat, help Ling with homework, and tell bedtime stories every day. It seemed that he had forgotten about the collapse and was determined to live an ordinary life with the two sisters.
In the morning, I send Ling to school, then take a walk in the park, sipping the cherry blossom tea brewed by Ying herself, reading the newspaper leisurely while watching the hardworking girl wipe the floor until it reflects light.
Sakura is a person who cannot sit still. She cleans and tidies the house from morning to night, or kneels in the living room to meditate and practice swordsmanship.
It's just that Ryan's mind never stopped, constantly assuming, rejecting, and assuming again, and then there was no answer.
Honkai Impact is indeed targeted, but it is something at the strategic level. For example, the Herrschers are becoming more and more powerful. After discovering that the Seventh Herrscher has failed, they will switch to psychological warfare, virus warfare, and spy warfare, and wait for the discovery and fusion. Warriors are the core of human resistance, so simply send out the Herrscher of Restraint to destroy them all.
But the original world line sample has no reference value. The biggest factor of change is me. If I remember correctly, the Herrscher of Thunder had emotions at the last moment, and that kind of astonishment was not even her own emotion.
Ryan flipped through the newspaper faster and faster. The upper-level Honkai beast reported to the group in advance, which seemed to be predicted no matter how you looked at it, but how could Honkai be predicted?
"Move your feet."
Just as he was thinking, Sakura's voice came. He subconsciously raised his foot and saw Sakura lying on the ground wiping the floor.
At first he was a little embarrassed, but later he got used to it, revealing his lazy dog nature and watching the girl arching her back and forth under his feet.
Sakura was wearing a yukata. The thin material stuck to her body, and her raised butt looked like a plump peach. The V-shaped neckline of the yukata hung down, and the curves were made more prominent by gravity.
The shape is perfect and the size is so huge that it is impossible to hold it in one hand.
After just a glance, Ying turned around again, washed the towel in the bucket, and wiped the fine beads of sweat on her forehead.
"Is Ling asleep already?"
"Well, you played with her in the park for several hours today. You must be exhausted. You worked hard during the day."
"Since I have nothing to do, I might as well take her out to play. Ling is very cute and she even made an appointment with me to go to the amusement park next time. Of course, you have to come with us."
"I promised her a long time ago, but I just never got around to it."
"This is my fault. If you weren't afraid of being discovered by the Fire Moth, you could have taken a good rest this time."
Ryan sighed and closed the newspaper, but saw that Ying didn't have any resentment at all. She just quietly made a cup of tea and put it on the table.
"There's a long way to go, and I know you've been upset lately. It's beyond my expectation that you can be patient enough to accompany Ling." Ying said calmly. She had seen Ryan's abilities with her own eyes, and of course knew that the Third Herrscher was related to him.
"Aren't you curious?"
"Curiosity is the natural enemy of an assassin. Everyone has secrets, but I trust your judgment."
If Sakura was as sharp as a knife in battle, then at this moment she was as gentle as water.
"Ying, I like your understanding, but I'm sorry, I have to end this comfortable life." Ryan took a deep breath and had the urge to let Ying stay.
"As long as you feel comfortable, I'm satisfied." Ying stood up with a smile, pushed her long hair aside, and shook her head gently. "I intercepted the communication of the Fire Chaser Moth. Shesha appeared on Parit Island, which is 200 kilometers away. Please wait a moment. I will prepare for the attack."
She didn't say much, just left this sentence and walked into the inner room, which made Ryan stunned for a moment, then closed the newspaper with a smile.
Although I concealed it very well, I was still seen through. As for why Ying was so determined to interrupt the life she loved most?
It's very simple. Ryan didn't do anything in the past few days, but he made this transaction no longer feel like a transaction.
What I was anxious about was what she wanted, and finally I made a new friend.
Not long after, the footsteps were heard again, but this time they were fast and urgent.
Ryan turned his head and saw Ying dressed in a familiar outfit. She was wearing leather boots and shorts, with a white over-the-knee sock on her right leg. She was wearing a blue-black jacket and a white T-shirt on her upper body, and a long sword hanging from her waist.
Her long pink hair was naturally spread out, and she wore a pair of blue headphones around her neck. Except for the fact that she no longer had fox ears, she was basically the same as she was in the Ying Jie period.
The dress is a bit strange, but very capable.
Being stared at by Ryan, Ying looked away slightly and explained: "This is the Forget-me-not that Ling painted. I matched it according to the pattern."
"I see. I was wondering if you were wearing a tight combat uniform when I first met you. Oh, you don't need to bring a knife."
