Zhou Si finally resigned herself to her fate. To be fair, the flute was quite cool in appearance.
But don't think he's given up! His dream of becoming a katana master will never be extinguished!
"Don't worry, boss, meow! One day I'll draw my katana, meow!"
If you say something like that, I'll be even more worried. Zhou Si looked at her cat and felt that it had set some incredible goals.
Surely I'm not so unlucky as to never draw a katana? No way! I need EX Luck to save me.
"Xiao Bai, if I may ask, does this alchemy furnace pool have a guaranteed drop rate?"
What's a guaranteed minimum, meow?
Bai Chunzhen's gaze made Zhou Si's vision go black again. The lone bird next to him patted his shoulder, offering Zhou Si some basic humanitarian care.
A real cesspool has appeared!
“Lao Zhou, Alicia said she’s ready.”
Looking at the message on his phone, the lone bird nodded to Zhou Si.
Upon hearing Lone Bird's words, Zhou Si sent an environmental connection synchronization invitation to Alicia through the Hunter's Book.
As the spatial fluctuations swept past their eyes, a pink-haired beauty carrying large and small bags appeared in front of the two.
Just a second after Alicia accepted Zhou Si's invitation, the scenery before her eyes changed. The cold instruments in the laboratory and Dr. Mebius's disdainful face disappeared, replaced by a vast, boundless sandy plain, and Zhou Si and a lone bird not far away.
"Zhou Si, I'm here!"
"This must be Miss Lonely Bird. I've been looking forward to meeting you for so long!"
When Alicia saw the lone bird, her eyes lit up instantly. She never expected that Zhou Si's teacher would be a beautiful girl.
Just call me Lone Bird.
Seeing Alicia's excited eyes, Lone Bird remained calm, but her body subconsciously moved closer to Zhou Si. She wasn't good at dealing with such enthusiastic people, and her hunter's intuition told her that this group member she was meeting for the first time was not simple.
"Alicia, you should know you're not going on vacation, right? Give them the communicator."
Just as Alicia was about to say a few more words, Mebius's warning voice rang out from Alicia's hand. Only then did Zhou Si notice that Alicia was wearing an 'eye' on her chest, and that eye was staring straight at them.
After taking the communicator from Alicia, Zhou Si heard Mebius's voice again.
"That guy has already told me your requirements. If the materials you provide are similar to that monster called Tigrex, then there's no problem with cooperating."
Mebius sat in a chair in the laboratory, the screen in front of him displaying the scene on the other side.
Although her request was for some monster materials, she was actually more interested in this human named Zhou Si (?).
"What an amazing power..."
Mebius sighed softly, "Not only can it cross the barriers between worlds, but it can even maintain the transmission of data. Even if she wasn't an expert in this field, she knew how difficult that was."
And all of this stemmed from the man in front of them, who was wearing Thunder Dragon armor.
"The materials you need will be prepared by the guild. It's a pleasure to cooperate with you, Dr. Mebius."
"Pleasant to work with."
Zhou Si was somewhat surprised. Although he had expected Mebius to agree to their cooperation, her easygoing nature did overturn his impression of this snake.
In his mind, Mebius was not exactly a bad person, but he was not a good person either. The only explanation Zhou Si could think of was that her interest in the world, or rather, in him, exceeded Zhou Si's expectations.
This was before Zhou Si had even demonstrated his abilities, so it was unclear whether this was a good thing or a bad thing.
However, the most urgent task at present is to deal with the Honkai Beast hiding in the Crimson Forest.
"Dr. Mebius, what are your thoughts on that Honkai Beast?"
“You wouldn’t understand anything too complicated if I explained it to you right now. I’ll send you a document to read later. For now, I’ll just give you the conclusion.”
While stirring the brown liquid in the beaker, Möbius expressed his conjecture.
"Normally, Honkai Beasts do not have the ability to directly transform into other creatures; this is a power belonging to the Herrschers."
"But there are no exceptions. There is a type of Honkai Beast whose energy level far exceeds that of its ordinary counterparts. They are extremely rare, and their birth is always accompanied by the awakening of a Herrscher."
Zhou Si's mind also turned to the Herrscher's symbiotic Honkai Beast.
"But we need more clues to know the specifics. After all, we still know too little about the Honkai, and the situation on your side may not be similar to ours."
"Alicia!"
"Here! Dr. Möbius, what are your orders?"
Alicia, who had been acting as a human camera for half the day, was startled by Mebius's voice, but she quickly responded.
"Turn on the instrument I mentioned before and test the Honkai energy content over there."
Upon hearing this, Alicia quickly took out something that looked like a temperature gun from the package behind her and gestured around.
"Doctor, no Honkai energy has been detected."
Alicia looked at the instrument in her hand and exclaimed the results in surprise. On the other side, Mebius had an "I knew it" look on his face when he heard the conclusion.
"Now we have good news and bad news. Which do you want to hear first?"
Mebius's excited voice came from the other end of the communicator. Before Zhou Si and the others could respond, she gave her answer on her own.
"The good news is that you probably don't need to worry about a Honkai outbreak."
"But the bad news is that the companion Honkai Beast has likely undergone some changes, and it is now likely gradually adapting to the environment of your world."
"It's evolving!"
Mebius's conclusion silenced the people present, but she clearly wasn't going to stop there.
Mebius stood up and left the computer, walking towards a room behind him. In that room stood a huge petri dish, and inside the petri dish, a deep blue monster lay quietly.
"You need to speed things up. You can use Alicia as you please. In return, I need that the materials you deliver in the end must include materials about that Honkai Beast."
"no problem."
Before Alicia could react, she was sold to Zhou Si and the others by Dr. Mebius.
Zhou Si didn't stand on ceremony and immediately agreed.
And so, a bewildered Ellie was pulled into the group heading to the Crimson Forest.
Chapter Thirty-Seven Zhou Si: "I felt very helpless."
"By the way, Airi, you're going to use Honkai energy, right? Will it have any impact after coming to this world?"
After placing the prepared supplies on the Heron Eagle Dragon, Zhou Si looked at Alicia beside him and asked her with some curiosity.
Upon hearing Zhou Si's words, Alicia was taken aback at first. Then, under Zhou Si's strange gaze, she jumped a few times and spun around a few times before conjuring a crystal flower in her hand.
"I feel very relaxed physically, but I really can't sense the Honkai energy in the air."
"However, my dear Dr. Mebius had already considered this possibility, and had me bring two Honkai energy crystals with me."
Alicia adjusted the backpack on her back; the two Honkai energy crystals were currently inside.
"Hmph, with your wasteful methods, this amount of crystals won't last long."
"So I need to use Honkai energy sparingly."
Alicia put Mebius's voice to her ear and pretended not to hear it.
It seems that the Honkai doesn't really affect this area. Alicia's answer gave Zhou Si a boost of confidence. At least he doesn't have to worry about a major battle between Honkai Beasts and monsters now.
Moreover, given the adaptability of these monsters, they will only become more troublesome after being infected with Honkai.
"Same as always, the ranged output is up to you."
"no problem!"
After Zhou Si and the others spent some time organizing the items they needed for the trip, they boarded the Heron Eagle Dragon and prepared to leave the base camp. However, when they reached the exit of the base camp, a blue-haired figure blocked their way.
Melo was seen squatting at the exit, clutching her clothes and looking like she was about to cry. Zhou Si's eyelids twitched the moment he saw her, and the instant he noticed she was about to speak, he jumped off the Heron Eagle Dragon and covered her mouth.
"What's the matter with you?"
Zhou Si glared fiercely at Melo, but it was clear that his gaze had no effect on the machine race.
"In response, this machine needs to find an alternative energy source and requests to travel with you."
"So what were you planning to do, looking like that just now?"
"The explanation is that men are more likely to feel sympathy when they see a woman in a vulnerable and helpless state, and their requests are more likely to be accepted in such situations."
Zhou Si remained silent, only raising his fist and slamming it hard into Melo's head. Melo, whose processor had been 'severely damaged,' clutched his head and squatted on the ground, muttering something under his breath.
"The data is incorrect; the target page has been blocked."
"Never mind, just follow me."
Zhou Si looked at Melo, who was about to get up and leave, and waved her hand helplessly. If Melo could find a replacement energy source, it would be a good thing for them. Moreover, even now, she is not just a pretty face.
As an observer, Melo is extremely sensitive to information and data, and with her around, their chances of finding the companion Honkai Beast are much greater.
"Miss, may I ask your name?"
The moment Zhou Si and Melo finished their conversation, Airi, who had somehow appeared, gave Melo a friendly look, trying to get to know this cute cyborg girl.
Melo tilted his head, looked at the pink-haired girl in front of him, a stream of data flashed in his eyes, and then ran directly behind Zhou Si.
Based on this person's behavior, demeanor, and subtle movements, combined with the information Melo obtained online, it is highly likely that this person has developed unusual emotions towards the machine's cute appearance, which could potentially affect her agreement with Zhou Si.
Therefore, at this time, we should get close to Zhou Si, assert our sovereignty, and make the unknown entity No. 2 back down.
“Master said that Melo is not allowed to talk to strange adults.”
Melo's words instantly silenced the three people present. Alicia looked at Zhou Si in disbelief, while Lone Bird's gaze towards Zhou Si gradually changed to that of someone looking at scum.
"Once or twice is enough! Melo, change how you address me."
Zhou Si looked at Melo behind her, somewhat embarrassed and angry. Melo, on the other hand, looked at Zhou Si with her big, innocent eyes.
"Please enter a new name."
"Zhou Si".
The title has been changed.
Although he had been tormented by this guy for a long time, Zhou Si gradually figured out how to use Melo.
Although she is a machine, when faced with a situation without clear instructions, Melo will start running her corrupted database to analyze solutions, which will then lead to some very abstract results.
Wait, so in the end it's still his problem?
Zhou Si looked at the phone in her hand, unsure of what expression to make.
After spending some time explaining to Lone Bird and Alicia about Melo's identity and the situation just now, Zhou Si temporarily cleared himself of suspicion of being a loli fetishist.
After all these twists and turns, they finally set off.
......
"But why am I running again?"
Zhou Si looked at the three heron-eagle dragons in front of him, with Alicia and Equipment, Lone Bird and Tuanzi, and Melo and Bai riding on them respectively, while poor Lao Zhou still had no heron-eagle dragon to ride.
Zhou Si quickened her pace and ran to the Lone Bird's side. She looked at the Lone Bird with some confusion, not understanding why she had just been watching, even though she was the captain of the Bird Team.
"Caged bird, why are you just watching?"
"Lao Zhou, don't you understand?"
Lone Bird sighed as he looked at his foolish apprentice. Why did Lord Fabius send Lone Bird to guide him? Why did he give Zhou Si's ideas the green light? And why did he entrust them with the task of dealing with this monster?
She had previously received some information from the Grand Master that more and more visitors from other worlds had recently appeared on the continent. Although visitors from other worlds had appeared in previous years, they were only a very small minority, and most people and monsters from other worlds would return to their original world after staying for a period of time.
But recently, not only have large numbers of alien creatures appeared, but some have even integrated into the local ecosystem, and these creatures show no signs of returning to their original world.
The surge in commissions put the Hunter's Guild under immense strain. To make matters worse, as these otherworldly creatures appeared on a large scale, some Dragon Academy hunters discovered forbidden traces while hunting them.
The most striking thing was that they observed an ecological phenomenon similar to that of a divine realm in a place ravaged by otherworldly creatures, which immediately put the entire Hunter's Guild on high alert.
Various rumors about the apocalypse quickly spread within the guild.
Just when the entire Hunter's Guild was in a state of chaos, an urgent report came from the New World Survey Team: an investigation file about Zhou Si was placed on the table of the guild's upper echelons.
With Bai and Gu Niao vouching for him, the guild leadership ultimately decided to make Zhou Si the bridge to communicate with other worlds, not only because he was a benevolent visitor from another world, but more importantly because the Hunter Guild saw in him the possibility of fighting against taboos.
Looking at Zhou Si's still somewhat immature face, the lone bird silently apologized to Lord Fabius in his heart.
