Where is the third collapse? ! !

"Brother, do you need my help?"

Little Karen jumped up and down. Even though it was just a subroutine, it was still possible to mobilize the cameras in an area.

Although the BBC and other media outlets constantly condemn China for installing cameras everywhere and disrespecting privacy in international public opinion, in fact, the density of camera installations in the UK is the highest in the world.

"No need."

Fu Li shook his head: "No matter what, he was able to steal something from an A-rank like me. Ordinary cameras definitely can't track him."

"Oh? You want to use that?"

"It's a good time to try out new abilities."

The boy placed his hand on the concealed long sword at his waist and dispersed his spiritual power around himself.

——The instantaneous sword strikes the cold river reflecting the moon, a perception-based sword skill developed by Fu Li based on the holy mark of reason, the form of reason in the instantaneous sword strike.

When activated, the spiritual power will be dispersed with itself as the center, forming an invisible lake that covers a certain range and forms a three-dimensional map.

Within the range of perception, the actions, energy, spirit and even soul fluctuations of others will be fed back to oneself through Hanchuan Yingyue like a stone dropped into the water, thus enabling accurate perception and making timely countermeasures.

On the downside, Hanchuan Yingyue consumes a lot of energy. With Fu Li's current spiritual power, the radiation range is limited to a few hundred meters in radius and can only last for a few minutes at most.

The enemy can also interfere with detection by wrapping the body with mental power, blocking the same level of breath, and other methods, but Hanchuan Yingyue's concealment is quite strong. Unless the enemy's mental toughness is stronger than her own, they will not be able to sense that they are being spied on.

Unfortunately, the petty thief clearly didn't have this ability.

"found it!"

Fu Li opened his eyes and fixed his gaze on a corner hundreds of meters away.

He took Mei's hand and was about to run over there, but when he caught a glimpse of the girl's high heels, he changed his attack, picked her up in his arms and ran over there.

Even though they tried to reduce their presence, there were still many curious people along the way who whistled at the handsome couple to cheer them up.

After all, this scene looks too similar to the elopement of Romeo and Juliet. As long as the beautiful girl in his arms does not cry for help, simple people are happy to offer their blessings.

The distance of a hundred meters passed in a flash, and when Fuli and Mei arrived at the sensing point, they rushed into the alley and shouted to raise their hands.

"Meow!!!"

A chubby brown cat carrying a large package on its back was immediately frightened and its hair stood on end.

In its little paws was Fu Li's lost wallet.

……

"Is this the legendary Cathy Palug?"

Fu Li lifted the chubby cat with heterochromia high up in the air. Even though he knew it was a thieving cat with no moral principles, he still couldn't help but hold it in his arms, and gave it a good kiss, hug, and rub its face.

Cathy Palugh is a legendary cat demon that appeared in the ancient Welsh legend "The Legend of King Arthur" and is also the pet of the great wizard Merlin.

Legend has it that after Merlin was sealed by the Lady of the Lake, this cat demon wandered around the Thames, waiting day and night for his master's return.

Since then, local people have called it the Padoo cat that brings good luck.

The reason is simple. Although this little guy always does some sneaky things and never leaves empty-handed, as long as you see it, the person's luck will definitely be extremely good!

How good is this? The Light and Shadow News Agency wrote a poem praising this:

Say Pado, say Pado, good luck to cats everywhere!

The waves of the Thames are broad, and blessings roll up to the sky;

In the filial piety manor, filial piety is passed down from generation to generation, and the ancestors bless the descendants to be proud;

There are not enough auspicious words to say and endless songs of blessing to sing!

Of course, that being said, even many old Londoners who were born and raised in the foggy city would only classify this as a nursery rhyme and rumor.

The legend of King Arthur was 1,500 years ago. How could a normal cat live that long? 80% of the time, they just look too similar.

Fuli, who had the intelligence from last week, knew the truth of this legend, because the legendary magician Merlin who once assisted King Arthur in fighting the Anglo-Saxons was actually a pioneer who survived from a previous era.

The technology of ancient civilizations was so advanced, so why would it be difficult to let your pet live for thousands of years?

"You're right, cute little Padu~"

Holding the struggling cat in his arms, Fu Li's smile became even more perverted:

"You little kitten was born to be eaten by daddy! Can you run out of my palm? You can't, hehehe! Give me a kiss, Mua, give me a kiss!"

Mei, who had long been accustomed to the cat slave's temper, rolled her eyes, walked over to the round package that Padu cat had been carrying, and helped him find the wallet that had been stolen.

Unexpectedly, the more he looked, the more surprised he became.

"Root Prisms from the Quantum Sea, fluid alloy blocks that flow and deform at the micron level, star stones for crafting advanced equipment, soul-eroding jade that absorbs and stores spiritual energy... They even have the chameleon fabric I've been unable to get?!!"

The materials that the girl was talking about were all very precious Honkai-derived minerals.

Miss Lei Dian suddenly looked up, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Padu Cat, as if she was looking at a lucky fortune cat that kept shaking its arms.

If you could keep one at home, let it out for a week or two and then take it back, it would be a sure-fire profit!

"Meow!!!"

Sensing the greed in the eyes of the woman below, the cat, which had been reluctant just now, immediately curled up in Fu Li's arms, covering its furry pointed ears with its two little paws and drooping them, using them to block its round eyes as if it couldn't see.

"wall!"

"Isn't this bad?"

The boy hesitated, and unconsciously picked up the Padu kitten that randomly dropped rare items.

The belly is plump and the meatball is soft, the baby is so cute~

"What's wrong with that? It's dangerous to let it wander outside alone!"

For some reason, when Mei said this, she seemed to hear a voice full of despair and sorrow in her ears, "Sister Mei, I don't want to die..."

She shook her head and pressed on, "What kitten wouldn't want a warm home and an unlimited supply of delicious canned cat food every day?"

"I don't think she wants to."

The charming and flirtatious laughter of a stranger echoed in the deserted alley.

"who!"

Fu Li and Mei Yi's expressions froze, and they looked towards the source of the sound at the same time.

"Just like you, I'm an unlucky fellow who had something important stolen by this naughty Sage Cat."

The green figure who was squatting by the package looking for something stood up and looked over, her pretty face full of smiles.

"My name is Mebius, 'Nice to meet you two, cute little guys."

The soul-eroding jade in her hand was tossed up and down by her slender and skillful hands, as if it was something she had lost.

Or, was it simply a matter of stealing?

Chapter 24 "Snake's Kiss"

The dusk spread across the Thames like spilled blue ink. The dome of the church still retained the last touch of rose gold, and the old bookseller on the south bank set up a brass kerosene lamp.

"Nice to meet you two cute little guys~"

Facing the young man and girl whom he had long admired, Mebius smiled meaningfully.

She wasn't lying; formally speaking, it was indeed their first meeting.

Before, she was just observing secretly through various means... Uh, why does it sound a bit like a nympho?

On the other side——

Mebius?

Hearing this familiar yet unfamiliar name, Fu Li and Mei exchanged glances in tacit understanding.

The latter certainly knew who this person was. He was a newly rising reformist executor with a great reputation, a super expert in the field of life, who single-handedly supported the progress of anti-entropy in human body research. Mei often stayed up all night reading his many published papers, such as the soul distillation and liquefaction mentioned by Theresa earlier.

Yao Yeji's transformation was done by this person. The effect is so strong that even if she is cut into pieces by the Yiying Sword Qi, as long as the nano core is not broken and has sufficient energy, she can recover within tens of seconds.

And here on Fuli's side——

After hesitating for a moment, he whispered, "I always feel like... you're a little different from the girl in the magazine."

Before today, the boy had only seen pictures of Mebius through news media and the like.

On that surface, this famous beauty doctor has indeed maintained herself very well, but the traces of time can still be seen in the corners of her eyes and skin.

Now?

Fu Li's eyes swept over Mebius in front of him again: she was wearing a close-fitting, breathable, thin, pure white wool sweater today. The V-neck design revealed her delicate and attractive collarbone like butterfly wings. A custom-made Ouroboros necklace hung in front of her plump breasts, and on her wrist was a rose-colored Cartier women's watch.

Her long green hair was carefully combed, and her slender legs under the hip skirt were covered with 20D black over-the-knee socks. With her pretty face full of youthful charm, she looked like a pure female college student who was ignorant of the world.

"Rejuvenation?"

he whispered.

To sum up: SAO wants to do it.

"Is it possible that I was deliberately acting old when I appeared in the magazine to avoid trouble from some scumbag with a silver bug in his head?"

In the shadows, Mebius leaned against the wall with his arms folded, carefully examining the big boy who looked so delicious.

"I really want to eat him..."

Feeling her mind active under the blessing of some power, the beauty couldn't help licking the corner of her mouth.

For a scientist like Möbius who spends all day with experimental subjects, the appearance and beauty of others are meaningless.

Her snake-like pupils could easily see how Fu Li's soft-colored lips stimulated the movement of facial nerves and muscles. Her straight nose could smell the pheromones mixed with a hint of warning in the air. The tip of her tongue sticking out from her thin lips could even taste the boy's suddenly rising, aggressive body temperature.

That is the male hormone that is inevitably produced in the body when seeing an excellent person of the opposite sex of the right age who is suitable for reproduction.

But compared to these, the beauty cares more about another thing.

As a master in the field of life science, Mebius's control over the body far exceeds the millimeter by which a scalpel cuts across the organs of a test subject.

She was certain that some strange chemical reaction had occurred in her body since she set foot in this coastal town.

The originally sticky and sluggish thoughts suddenly broke free from their seals. Billions of neurons seemed to ignite at the same time, and the ripples on the lake surface surged into huge waves. Every rolling synapse was releasing electricity, transmitting information, observing, recording and calculating. The fragments of consciousness were suspended in the vacuum of the neural circuit like supernova debris.

Under such influence, Mebius even wanted to give up all the purposes of coming to England and just lock himself in the caged sea called inspiration and swim freely.

Now I can do anything!

However, the reason why geniuses are geniuses is that they understand better what it means to "know the truth and the reason behind it."

With great perseverance, Mebius forcibly suppressed the surging thoughts like a raging storm.

After hundreds of self-examinations and realizing that the problem was not with him, he paced around this small coastal town, looking for the mysterious factor that gave him such a surge of inspiration.

She completed the task without much effort, as the answer was one of the things she had been focusing on observing.

Fuli.

Mebius still remembered that the anti-entropy experimenters who had been sent to Changkong City to assist Cocolia had given similar reasons for not continuing to monitor Raiden Mei as planned:

Inspiration burst out inexplicably, and the thinking barrier that had been blocking me for years broke through like a rocket. I subconsciously put aside the trivial task and raced against time to carry out the experimental work.

At first, Mebius thought that these people were looking for excuses not to cooperate with large-scale human experiments. Now it seems that the problem clearly came from Fu Li in front of him!

"This extremely rare permanent development ability not only affects fusion warriors like me, but also extends over a radius of several miles... The skill level must be at least A. Considering the previous report from Changkong City researchers and the improvement in its current state, it either has the potential to continue developing to a higher level, or its effectiveness is linked to the owner's strength!"

Easily judging the true nature of Tian Tai Shi Jie Yu, Mebius's snake eyes lit up with a greedy and foul light.

As a top scientific researcher, her thirst for knowledge stirred up huge waves in her heart, constantly urging her to eat up the moving treasure in front of her in one bite.

"I lied to you."

Like an elementary school student deliberately targeting a member of the opposite sex, she flicked her green hair and teased, "The real Dr. Mobius died long ago. As an only child, I simply inherited her name and identity, which is why I look younger."

"Really?"

Fu Li was shocked.

When did Dr. Mebius, who is still single, have a daughter?

"Fake!"

Mei replied unhappily.

As the former Shesha and now the master of Kurikara, she can clearly feel the familiar surging vitality in the other's body.
