Honkai Impact: You still owe me a dance

When Mei returned from the memory space to the hall of the Paradise of the Past, she immediately asked Alicia why she met the snake slough.

"Oh, then it seems you have met Mebius."

"Mebius?"

This was the first time she heard the name Mebius since arriving in the Paradise of the Past.

"Dr. Mebius is the most powerful doctor in the Fire Chaser Moth. The fusion warrior was developed by Dr. Mebius."

A voice sounded below Mei Yi, it was Klein, the armed doll who brought her in earlier.

"Then why did she leave a snake slough?"

Mei still didn't understand why Mebius left a snake to shed.

"That's Mebius's habit. He probably underwent a new transformation due to death."

Alicia also helplessly spread her hands. Anyway, she was so used to Mebius's behavior that she couldn't get used to it anymore.

"But when Mebius wants to come out to see you, she will naturally come out to see you. But at that time, you must be careful about her."

Although she didn't know what was going on, Mei Yi still believed in Alicia for the time being. After resting for about two or three times, Mei Yi entered the memory space again.

But this time after just dealing with a wave of enemies, the surrounding environment changed instantly. Now she seemed to be in the hands of a person.

"Sister Herrscher, let's do some interesting things together~"

The moment she heard this voice, Mei Yi immediately entered a fighting state. When she looked up, she happened to see a huge woman with long green hair staring at her.

"Hey, don't be so nervous, big sister. I won't eat you in one bite. Or...are you actually thinking about how you can eat me, Herrscher?"

"Sorry, I don't have that interest."

"Sister, you are really cold to me. But I... I have been watching you since you entered the Paradise of the Past, right?"

"Watching? I think it would be more accurate to say that it is spying in secret. What do you think? Mebius."

Meiyi seemed to have guessed who the other party was, and directly revealed the other party's identity.

"It's boring. It's rare that I want to leave a better first impression... Well, wait... maybe you just don't like this type? Then..."

Mebius slightly adjusted his vocal cords and shouted directly in a clipped tone.

"...Big sister...it's so dark in here...it's so scary...Big sister, take me away...will it be okay here?"

"enough."

Looking at Mebius's appearance, Mei couldn't help but frown.

"Herr...hasn't anyone told you that when you are a guest in someone else's home, you should show due respect to the host?"

"Family?"

"Haha, don't you already know who I am? Or are they actually saying nothing to you except the name Mebius?"

Mebius smiled lightly.

"It's true that they didn't tell me about you, but at least Alicia reminded me to be more careful with you."

"In that case, why are you here, and why...are you talking to me so much without any defense?"

"Because I believe him, he once mentioned that Mebius might not be a bad person..."

Before Mei Yi finished speaking, shadows climbed onto her skin, and seductive whispers seeped in from the gaps in her thoughts like snakes.

"Come on, my little guinea pig."

"Mebius, you..."

Mei Yi's vision suddenly went dark, and the next moment her consciousness disappeared without a trace.

Looking at Mei Yi who was unconscious, Mebius's body began to gradually shrink, changed into its original appearance, and walked in front of Mei Yi.

"People in the Paradise of the Past are not necessarily good people. Mei."

A seal representing infinity appeared in Mebius's hand, and then merged into Mei's body.

"If I hadn't gotten rid of her in advance, maybe this would have been an experience for you. But now it's not just an experience. What you have to do is to find the snakes among the snakes. The only way to survive.”

Mebius merged into the shadows again, leaving only Mei in the memory space.

And when Mei Yi woke up, she looked around and saw that it was still the same hall that she was used to. It was the same as before.

"Am I back to reality? What happened..."

"What was that just now..."

Mei knew very well that what just happened was not an illusion. The feeling of shadows climbing on her skin had already been engraved in her heart.

"Oh, you woke up so quickly. Big sister."

Hearing Mebius's voice coming from behind, Mei immediately distanced herself from Mebius.

"It seems that Herrscher is indeed different. I am more interested in you. It is also thanks to you that I can appear here."

"It's you...why are you trying to hinder me?"

Mei still maintains a clear distance from Mebius

"Obstruction? How could it be? Did you faint too quickly and didn't hear the last words I said? The end point you want to reach is exactly the starting point where you are now."

"absurd......"

"Oh, don't be so angry, big sister...are you very concerned about what happened just now? In fact, my seal is a little different from other people's, especially in the way of inheritance."

Mebius turned into a black shadow and disappeared from Mei's eyes.

"How about... let's go deeper. Infinite engraving... I will find the most suitable way for you, and then give it to you."

The sound that followed suddenly appeared in Mei Yi's ears, making her skin crawl.

"leave me alone."

"Oh, big sister, if you act like this, I will be sad."

Mebius tilted his head and the smile on his face made Mei sense that something was wrong.

"Hey, look who's here. Isn't this dear Dr. Mebius?"

When the two were facing each other tit for tat, Alicia ran out of that corner and came next to Mebius.

"I didn't expect to meet you here. I thought... you would only appear in green places."

"Alicia."

Mebius also noticed that Alicia looked at him a little strangely, but she didn't mention it.

"I'm so happy to see you! However, Mei and I have agreed to do something happy together. Hey, I'm sorry, I can't accompany you."

Alicia gently moved closer to Mebius and smiled lightly at her.

"Okay, can you return her to me? We have an appointment."

Mebius rolled his eyes at Alicia, but in the next second, their eyes exchanged countless times.

"Alicia, what does this have to do with you?"

"....Friendship? A very close relationship? No, it should be said to be a super good relationship? Mei Yi, what do you think?"

"Huh~ shut up. If I were you, I wouldn't show up everywhere like this... My dear, betrayer."

As if she noticed something, Mei glanced at Alicia and Mebius thoughtfully.

"Betrayer? What are you talking about? I'm not Su, I can't see what will happen in the future. However, I believe in myself and "Alicia", just like I believe in everyone here, including you. "

Alicia tapped her red lips with her fingertips as if she was thinking about something.

"Hey, wait... Could it be that... the betrayer refers to what happened to Xiao Bai back then, or to what happened to Mei Yi? Don't think so! I still have you in my heart."

Seeing Alicia's appearance, Mebius felt a trace of nostalgia in his eyes, but also felt helpless.

"I heard it, the new girl... No, she should be the big sister who can discharge electricity. You must be careful about this person. In the paradise of the past, she will always be the least trustworthy one. , even just a little bit.”

"I won't accept the answer that anyone forces on me, I'll find it myself."

Meibius just faced Mebius's reminder indifferently, but Mebius just chuckled.

"I won't stop my time and efforts in convincing you. It was just a well-intentioned reminder. But you'd better be smart, otherwise, you will pay the price sooner or later."

Mebius continued as if talking to himself.

"Yes, we... have all paid the price for this. And the price is to lose one of my best friends."

After leaving such words, Mebius turned into a shadow and disappeared into the hall of the Paradise of the Past.

After Mebius left, Alicia patted her chest gently, took a long breath and said.

"Huh - it was really dangerous just now. Mebius can always do something beyond my imagination. Unfortunately, I just can't hate her and can't bear to say anything bad about her."

"Really? But it seems to me that your relationship is not as harmonious as you said."

Mei expressed doubts about Alicia's words.

"Oh, I really like her. Look, she's so small that you can't help but want to bully her. She's so cute!"

"So, about the 'betrayer' in her mouth."

"uh-huh."

In response to Mei Yi's question, Alicia just smiled lightly and had no intention of answering.

"It seems that you don't want to talk about this matter, or that it's too early now, right? In any case, this will not affect my judgment of you. Your memory is still stored here, which means that this matter There must be a deeper secret behind the matter, and I will personally uncover it."

"Well, I knew you were the best to me."

Under Alicia's gaze, Mei once again entered the memory space.

After she left, the shadow of Mebius appeared next to Alicia again.

Only this time, Alicia hugged Mebius directly.

"Oh, isn't this my lovely Mebius?"

"Alicia, didn't Bai Yan tell you that you are really annoying like this?"

Although Mebius only said this, he did not push away Alicia's embrace of him.

"So are you Mebius from the past or the real Mebius?"

"Even the Mebius of the Past World is also the real Mebius."

What Mebius said surprised Alicia.

"Eh? What about Mebius, who was originally in the paradise of the past?"

"I have overwritten her data, and at the same time, I have used her data to complete the system that I have not yet completed."

"What system? Does the Paradise of the Past have functions that I don't know about?"

"Bai Yan asked me to add a new system."

Mebius still pushed away Alicia's hand holding him.

"Bai Yan originally asked me to add a system that would allow me to synchronize the memory of the past life. Although Mei and I had already started researching it at that time, we later found it useless, so we canceled the development. But who can To think that that guy Bai Yan left so many backup plans."

Mebius was a little stunned at Bai Yan's backup plan.

"Xiao Bai, did he leave a lot of backup plans?"

Alicia tilted her head, and the look in her eyes clearly meant what she was saying.

'Tell me, tell me'

"Ask him yourself. I won't interfere in the relationship between you two."

Mebius gave a meaningful smile, but in exchange, Alicia pouted and had an unhappy expression.

"Just tell me, my good Mebius~"

"I just won't tell you, what can you do to me?"

Mebius ignored Alicia's coquettishness at all. Under Alicia's dissatisfied gaze, Mebius just took Klein to the terminal core of the Paradise of the Past.

"Eh."

Alicia looked at Mebius's back, and her pouted mouth returned to its original smile.

"Thank you, Xiaobai."

On the other side, Mei Yi was walking through the memory space until she came to a memory space like a Chinese courtyard. The environment here felt very familiar to Mei Yi.

"Welcome here, Herrscher."

A girl who was meditating cross-legged was in the middle of the courtyard. When she saw her appearance, Mei Yi was stunned for a moment.

"Squad leader?"

"It seems that you should know the civilized me. However, I am not her."

Hua stood up, made fists with both hands, and showed the starting position of the boxing technique.

"But let me see what your strength is."

Just as Mei Yi drew her weapon, Hua was already in front of her.

A straight punch hit Mei Yi's face.

In response, Meiyi could only retreat violently with her feet.

Hua's boxing skills did not stop, and the frequency of attacks was even getting faster and faster. If it was because he had not experienced Sakura's training, Mei Yi might have been defeated by now.

But now Mei has the ability to find opportunities to counterattack in the intervals between Hua's attacks.

Hua didn't press Mei Yi too hard, he just stopped after testing her strength.

"What? Is there something wrong?"

Looking at Hua who suddenly stopped, Mei Yi felt a little strange. Such a battle was a little strange whether it started or ended.

"I just want to see what your strength is. After all, I don't hope that the students brought out by senior Bai Yan will be ordinary people."

Hua slowly raised his hand and sent a seal into Mei Yi's body.

"Engrave 'Floating Life', and for a moment, everything will be abandoned. This place is far more dangerous than you think, and you must not take it lightly."

After Meiyi completely integrated the Fusheng Seal, she chatted with Hua for a while and then returned to the hall of the Paradise of the Past.

In the hall, Su was resting on the sofa in the hall with his eyes closed.

"Hello, visitor. It seems you are used to this place."

"Pretty much, except for one of your friends who is really unpredictable."

"Alicia? Unfortunately, I can't understand what she is thinking."

"Aren't you a spiritually aware fusion warrior? You should be good at discerning people's minds, right?"

"It's not that I don't want to, it's that I can't. Alicia is special - not even another warrior named "Commandment" can set limits for her. For so many years, Bai Yan was the only one who could understand what Alicia was thinking. "

Su just shook his head. Over the years, Bai Yan was the only one who could know what Alicia was thinking.

"I'm even more curious, what kind of relationship did Teacher Bai Yan and Alicia have in pre-civilization times?"

"The best comrade? Or the best friend who can talk about everything? In fact, we don't know. Maybe you can ask Alicia yourself, and she will be happy to talk to you about Bai Bai. Yan’s matter.”

Regarding the relationship between Bai Yan and Alicia, Su didn't want to say more. After all, what he said might cause dissatisfaction between the two of them.

"It's just that Alicia doesn't seem to want to tell me."

Regarding Mei Yi's question, Su just smiled faintly.

"After meeting so many people with very different personalities, I feel that you are the 'other' in this group."

"In the apocalypse, lust and obsession can make a person go further. The Fire Moth needs such people. I used to be a doctor, and saving the world is my desire. If I want to alleviate the suffering of everyone, Wanting to heal their scars, perhaps, this is also my obsession.”

"But in the end you were entrusted with the lonely 'Hengsha Project'."

"I'm not alone."

Su shook her head.

"Don't you care about what happens outside, such as where you are and what you are doing in the future?"

"How many worlds will I see? What kind of thoughts will I have? After experiencing an unknown time and seeing countless possibilities, will my thoughts change? It's a pity that I, relying on this place, have no possibility of exploring these questions. Just For example, right now, the only thing I am certain about is the possibility that the Hengsha Project will fail %."

Su's words surprised Meiyi.

"You have known for a long time that the Hengsha Project is impossible to succeed?"

"Naturally, not only that, from the time the plan was formulated, the Fire Plan, the Ark Plan, the Hengsha Plan and the Stigmata Plan were all plans that would not succeed."

"But why, Kevin still insists on executing the Stigmata Plan."

"Because he doesn't know this, or in other words, the only people who know that these plans will fail are me, Bai Yan and Dr. Mei."

Su's words also surprised Meiyi.

"When these four plans were formulated, although Dr. Mei and I believed that these plans had a slight possibility of success, the moment these plans were proposed, Bai Yan had already said that these plans were unlikely to succeed. s reason."

"But I remember that you said at the beginning that Teacher Bai Yan basically did not participate in much research in previous civilizations?"

Instead, Mei remembered the time when Alicia talked about Bai Yan, but it didn't seem to be true.

"It is true that he will not participate in any research, but he knows a little bit about everything, and even his words can make the highest decisions in many places. Even after he said such words, Dr. Mei and I Both of them also know that these plans are impossible to succeed."

From Su's words, Mei Yi also captured a very sensitive word.

"The highest decision-making? Su, I also want to ask you a question. What role is Teacher Bai Yan in The Thirteen Heroes of Chasing Fire?"

"He is. A partner who can be trusted absolutely no matter what happens."

Su's high evaluation of Bai Yan surprised Meiyi.

"You don't seem to like talking about the past, but why now..."

"This is something I promised him. After all, the old era has come to an end, and human civilization still needs to move forward. If you want to move forward, you need to keep your eyes on the front. I will try my best to answer. I hope that the predecessors will leave a lasting impression. The steps you take can point you in the direction. Only when you stop at the right time can you look back on the way you came and remember some things that have been ignored."

After the two chatted for a while, Su also went to other places in the Paradise of the Past.

The continuous exploration also made Mei Yi feel a little tired. When he was resting in the hall, Eden walked to Mei Yi with a wine glass.

"Successor, would you like something to drink?"

"No. Thank you, Eden."

When Eden invited Mei to have a drink with him, Mei declined.

In her current relationship with the memory of the Paradise of the Past, although the person she has been with the longest is Alicia, the person she trusts more is Eden, and the person who is most difficult to get along with is Qianjie.

Perhaps it's because Eden's soulful music is enough to put people at ease.

"Eden, do you know how to get along with Qianjie?"

"Hmm... To be honest, I'm not very clear about this either."

Eden was also helpless regarding Mei Yi's question.

"I have tried singing or playing some soothing music for him before, but it didn't work very well. His soul cannot be soothed by art. Only in battle can he find peace."

"That does seem to be the case..."

"But there's nothing wrong with it, really. Just like Bai Yan's original evaluation of Qianjie, even though he is as fierce as fire, he is still gentle in his heart. Qianjie's heart must also be willing to fight with him Only people can taste it."
