People are in Honkai Impact 3rd, there's a villain simulator.

[Option 3: Silently watch the nanomachines dismantle Wendy, eagerly anticipating the moment the gem leaves its container to seize it.]

Chapter 119 Wendy: Jojo, I don't want to be separated from you (5k)

On the cold lab bench in the center, Wendy was bathed in the faint glow of the nanomachines, her figure slowly dissipating like sea foam.

[Dr. Edward, loyal to destiny and opposed to you, stared greedily at the exposed Gem of Desire, his eyes filled with lust as he reached out his nano-gloved hand, wanting to touch the emerald green gem enveloped in light.]

[As you witness Dr. Edward's attempt to sacrifice Wendy to retrieve the Gem of Desire, your wild blood surges forth, detaching you from your human form and transforming you into a monstrous, fanged, azure demon.]

At this moment, the cyborgs that Edward had arranged to act as guards swarmed towards you without hesitation.

[And you didn't want to waste time on these shrimp soldiers and crab generals, so you cruelly tore their bodies apart with your claws, bit through their throats with your sharp teeth, and crushed their heads with a single stomp. Without holding back, you slaughtered them all in an instant.]

[Congratulations, host, for saving Wendy. You have received 100 crystals.]

Hearing the beast-like growl, Dr. Edward quickly turned around. Seeing your enormous, distorted form, his joyful expression instantly vanished: "A fusion warrior?! Dr. Jojo's project to fuse human and Honkai Beast genes actually succeeded?!"

Dr. Edward's mouth dropped open in astonishment. In his view, the Fusion Warriors were far beyond the capabilities of Elheisen, a man who had betrayed his mentor by relying on the position of former director Oppenhammer.

[You caught the moment when Dr. Edward was stunned and disoriented by the Fusion Warriors, lunged at the testing platform shrouded in nanomachines, and swung your claws to sever the blue beam of light invading Wendy's body—a luminous entity composed of billions of nanomachines.]

After stopping the nanomachines, you used the power of the Herrscher of the Void to activate the skill "Give it to me!"

You snatched the gloves that control the nanomachines directly from Dr. Edwards.

After seizing control of the "Wind Spirit," you begin to reverse the nanomachines' instructions to destroy cells and start repairing Wendy's cells.

Although Dr. Edward, as a researcher, possesses many of Schicksal's core technologies, he is utterly powerless against you, who possesses Vishnu's genes, let alone take the Stone of Desire back from you.

Edward watched helplessly as you snatched Wendy from his grasp, his teeth clenched in fury. "Elheisen," he thought, "I never imagined a cold-blooded man like you would care about the life of an experimental subject. It seems... I was right to choose her as my target for revenge."

Upon hearing Dr. Edward's words, you immediately understood that the reason he wanted to kill Wendy was because you had wrongfully imprisoned him and then taken the opportunity to beat him up.

[Dr. Edward, who was once defeated by you and imprisoned, naturally knew your extraordinary power and status as director, which is why he specifically chose Wendy, who was close to you, to take revenge.]

Calling Dr. Edward a beast is an insult to beasts!

If he wanted revenge, Jojo would be ready anytime, but he knew that Jojo was someone he couldn't afford to offend, so he transferred his hatred to Wendy!

[You clench your fist in anger, gather all your strength, and swing the glove that controls the nanomachines, throwing a powerful punch: "This is a nanomachine iron fist! Kid!"]

[Your punch landed on Dr. Edward's chest, sending him flying backward. He spun several times on the ground like a skateboard, bleeding from multiple wounds. However, thanks to the defensive gear he was wearing, he withstood your attack and survived.]

[Congratulations, host, for beating up Edward! You have gained 100 crystals.]

That turtle bastard is way too resilient...

You survived my punch?

[You then notice that the skin on Dr. Edward's chest reveals the glossy black of exposed iron, suggesting that his entire body has undergone varying degrees of mechanical modifications.]

Oh... it was mechanical ascension.

No wonder it survived my nano fist attack.

After taking that punch, Dr. Edward's internal mechanical parts were severely damaged, leaving him utterly powerless to fight you.

A blinding light suddenly flashed through the sealed laboratory. A warship hovering in mid-air blasted open the laboratory wall with its cannons. Two women dressed in tight-fitting, body-hugging suits, their faces concealed by masks, descended the warship's stairs, intending to take Dr. Edward away.

[You immediately recognized that the two women were wearing Schicksal Valkyrie armor, and judging from their equipment, they should belong to Schicksal headquarters. Dr. Edwards is one of Schicksal's top scientists, so it's not surprising that he has good relationships with some of Schicksal's veteran figures. With such powerful backers, it's not hard to understand why he was able to escape Schicksal's judgment.]

You silently watched as Dr. Edward and the Valkyrie from Schicksal headquarters escaped the lab without intervening, because in your view, healing Wendy with the nanomachines was the most important thing; you simply couldn't spare the resources to kill Dr. Edward.

[Dr. Edward, watching you intently treating Wendy, thought to himself with a touch of smugness, "Elheisen, you don't really like this lab rat. You even disobeyed the bishop's orders and the orders of us senior researchers for her sake."]

Edward's lips curled into a mocking smile: "Don't waste your energy anymore. The Gem of Desire within this lab rat has been fully activated and will soon explode. If you don't leave, you'll soon be buried with this lab rat and New Zealand."

[As soon as he finished speaking, Dr. Edward boarded the prepared Destiny warship. He was eagerly anticipating the moment when the Stone of Desire would reveal its true power—invaluable data, of course. Even more precious was the prospect of witnessing Al Heisenberg die in the explosion, leisurely enjoying this artistic spectacle.]

This Dr. Edward is truly cunning.

He activated the Gem of Desire and then turned and ran away. What a madman who doesn't care about human life.

However... Qiaoqiao feels that most of the people who work with technology in the Honkai Impact world are like him.

[Dr. Edwards left the lab aboard the Destiny Ship, while you reversed the nanomachines' instructions to destroy cells. Countless tiny nanomachines emitted a faint emerald green glow, swarming around you and Wendy like fireflies.]

[Next, we enter Reality Mode...]

In the laboratory, which was in complete disarray due to the destruction caused by the warship, Jojo held Wendy's delicate and smooth hand, placing her palm on Wendy's bare chest. The nanomachines emitted a faint emerald green light and continuously entered her body through a tiny incision.

With the continuous injection of nanomachines, Wendy's body, which was originally decomposing and disappearing, is slowly recovering.

Wendy, dressed in a loose white coat and unconscious, lay on the lab table with her eyes closed and a pained expression occasionally showing on her pale, snow-white face.

As Jojo gradually repaired Wendy's body, her eyelids trembled slightly, and then she slowly opened her eyes, seeing Jojo's face. She was immediately startled: "Where am I...?"

Wendy was not fully awake at first. When she hurriedly got up and saw that she was in the laboratory, she immediately recalled that she had been kidnapped by Dr. Edward and that the Desire Gem had been forcibly removed.

The thought of the pain of her cells being slowly broken down before she fell into a coma made her tremble with fear.

Seeing Wendy's panicked expression, Jojo immediately grabbed her slender hand to comfort her, saying, "Wendy, don't worry, I've already driven Dr. Edward away. You're no longer in danger. It's safe here."

Jojo's words seemed to have a magical power, making Wendy feel especially comfortable and happy, and slowly forgetting her fear and pain.

But when Wendy saw the gem of desire exposed on her right leg, she immediately closed her eyes in fear, threw herself into Jojo's arms, and hugged her tightly.

"Brother Xiao Qiao... I just met you... I don't want to be separated from you."

Jojo was initially startled when Wendy suddenly hugged her, but then she thought... anyone facing a life-or-death crisis would seek help from others...

Qiaoqiao gently pulled her into her arms, stroking the top of her head, and said, "Silly girl...no one can separate us, not even death..."

As she spoke, out of Wendy's sight, Jojo's face suddenly turned cold, and her gaze turned to the emerald green gem embedded in her right leg. It trembled and emitted a faint emerald green light, having been fully activated and likely to explode and destroy the entire New Zealand soon.

[Dr. Edwards has removed half of the Desire Gem from Miss Wendy's body, and it's nearly activated. What is your next choice?]

Option 1: Remove the Gem of Desire from Miss Wendy's body.

[Option 2: Continue Dr. Edward's experiment, use nanomachines to kill Miss Wendy, and retrieve the Desire Gem.]

Option 1 removes the Desire Gem from Wendy's body, which will cause it to explode instantly, destroying all of New Zealand and killing everyone, including Jojo and Wendy. Option 2 can indeed stop the Desire Gem from exploding and save millions of people in New Zealand, but Miss Wendy must be killed in order to use the nanomachines to collect the stable Desire Gem.

No matter which option she chose, Wendy would die, but option 2 could save millions of lives. Jojo looked at the two options before her when suddenly the laboratory door was pushed open, and Cocolia, dressed in a blue military uniform, and Durandal, with her golden wavy hair, rushed in.

Durandal's expression turned quite unpleasant when she saw Jojo holding Wendy, who was only wearing a coat, in her arms. She and Cocolia had just infiltrated the Anti-Entropy forces and killed many rebels, contributing a great deal of effort. Yet Jojo herself was being affectionate with Wendy.

"Jojo! What exactly have you been doing with Miss Wendy?"

"Don't come here!"

Durandal was about to step forward to confront Jojo, but she was startled by his rebuke and immediately lost her temper. When she calmed down, she realized that the Desire Gem embedded in Wendy's thigh was on the verge of exploding.

No matter how brave Durandal was, she dared not directly confront the impact of the Desire Gem collapsing, especially since her strength had not yet recovered, so she could only obediently stop.

"Qiaoqiao, wait a moment. I'll contact the researchers at Anti-Entropy immediately to perform the surgery to remove the Desire Gem."

As Cocolia spoke, she picked up her phone to call for help. She would never allow anything to happen to her beloved, but she didn't care about Wendy's life.

Jojo didn't want Cocolia to kill Wendy and then safely retrieve the Desire Gem.

"You two don't need to worry about Wendy and me. I've already figured out a solution. You two should hurry up and bring Dr. Edward back to me. As long as we kill him, we can completely quell this rebellion."

When Jojo asked her to leave, Durandal's heart clenched with pain, because she knew that Jojo was aware of the risk of the Desire Gem exploding and was asking her to leave so as not to get hurt.

Throughout this journey, she had been protecting Jojo's life, so she could clearly sense that Jojo regarded human life as worthless and unimportant, including his own life, which he could give up at any time. Yet... it was precisely this kind of person who valued the lives of himself, Cocolia, Rosalia, Lilia, and Wendy exceptionally, placing their lives above those of others, and even being willing to give up his own life for them.

—I want to stay and keep you company...

Just as Durandal was about to speak, Cocolia patted her shoulder from behind. Her exquisite and beautiful face was filled with disappointment and regret. She shook her head and sighed, "Miss Durandal, you should understand Jojo's good intentions."

Upon hearing this, Durandal turned to look at Jojo, his eyes filled with determination, hoping that Durandal would leave from here.

In fact, Durandal knew very well that she was not a researcher and that staying by Jojo and Wendy's side would not only be of no help but would also cause trouble.

Durandal knew she couldn't change Jojo's mind, so she could only sigh.

"Qiaoqiao, wait for me to come back. I want to see you unharmed. If you are dead, I will definitely kill you!"

Jojo laughed when she heard Durandal's words, "If I die... how will you kill me?"

Go kill me in real life?

As soon as she finished speaking, Durandal jumped out of the breach in the wall where the warship had left, her Valkyrie armor immediately unfurling its wings.

"Qiaoqiao, I helped you this time, but the debt of gratitude I owe you later will be very difficult to repay!"

Cocolia gave Jojo a look, then jumped out with Durandal. The armor behind her contacted the quantum, carrying her away.

After Durandal and Cocolia left, JoJo finally felt relieved and breathed a sigh of relief. She lowered her head and met Wendy's fearful and uneasy eyes.

Wendy said weakly, "Brother Qiao, am I going to die here?"

"...Don't talk nonsense, I will definitely save you."

The day Wendy became a test subject for the Gem of Desire experiment, she knew that one day she would face death, but she was afraid to face it, instinctively fearing death, and unable to dedicate herself to science as the researchers said.

But Wendy, held in Jojo's arms, felt a strange sense of contentment in the face of death. Since death was unavoidable, she had no reason to fear it... and moreover...

Wendy's lips curved into a slight smile as she gently stroked JoJo's cheek, saying contentedly, "To die in Little JoJo's arms, I'd be perfectly content..."

Looking at Wendy's pale and weak face, Jojo grasped her fingers that were stroking her, and then said in a deep voice, "No...you must live. You have a long life ahead of you..."

Once the Gem of Desire is removed from Wendy's body, it will disrupt the original stable state and unleash powerful Honkai energy. This will only be possible if a human with Herrscher-like qualities, like Wendy, can be found to replace her as a vessel.

But if something goes wrong while using the Gem of Desire as a container, at best Wendy will be paralyzed in both legs, and at worst, the entire operation will have to be restarted.

In the entire New Zealand base, besides Wendy, only Jojo and Durandal possess the qualifications of a Herrscher.

If Durandal were to die, it would be the true end of her life.

But Qiaoqiao is different.

If he dies in a life simulation but can regain consciousness in reality, there is absolutely no need for him to fear death!

So Jojo let Durandal leave, while she stayed with Wendy.

Jojo's five fingers caressed the beautiful, smooth curves of Wendy's legs, and then she directly used the power of the Herrscher of the Void to connect with the Desire Gems on her legs.

Qiaoqiao used spatial manipulation to grasp the emerald green gemstone, and the flowing light emanating from it became even more intense.

After leaving Wendy's body, countless fine cracks immediately appeared on the crystal of the Desire Gem, emitting a blinding light as if it were about to explode.

At this moment... the Gem of Desire in JoJo's hands is like a nuclear bomb about to explode.

A hole connecting to another dimension appeared on Jojo's chest, and she then placed the Gem of Desire directly into her body.
