She stared at Bai Yan, trying to find the memories of the past and the phantom of her old friend in him.

"They look so alike. If she were still here, she might already be—well, that seems unlikely, since she was only a little taller than me back then. How could she have grown so fast?"

But there are still too many phantoms of old friends.

Sometimes Kiana would even suddenly feel as if she had almost forgotten the difference between the two.

"Dr. Mei is very much like Mei, and Fu Yan is very much like an enlarged version of Xiao Yan. If Captain Himiko hadn't suffered such a tragedy... well, it seems like Bronya would be missing."

A smile involuntarily appeared on his lips.

There have to be some differences, otherwise you really won't be able to tell them apart.

She picked up another potato chip, only to suddenly realize it was getting dark.

No, someone blocked the light.

Bai Yan approached her with a smile, which startled her.

"Wow! Ugh—Fu Yan, could you please stop scaring me like that?"

"I didn't mean to scare you. I just thought you looked kind of cute when you were staring blankly, so I came closer to take a look."

"Uh, oh..."

—They actually caught me spying on her!

She was blushing and trying to come up with an excuse, but the excuse suddenly appeared on its own.

A top hat, exaggerated gear accessories, and a figure no less impressive than Aponia's.

All of Vivi’s senses, which were used to observe the outside world, focused on Bai Yan.

With unrestrained gait, she barged into the Fifth Squad's base for the first time.

"My beautiful audience member, Ms. Fu Yan, why are you so hesitant to respond to my invitation?"

Volume 1: Chapter 156: Mei: Send them away first.

Although Wilvi spoke in a way that sounded like a wronged woman, her tone was extremely confident.

It's like wondering why someone forgot to eat breakfast.

Bai Yan sat there, unsurprised.

"You mean by 'invitation' you're referring to sending a robot with no clear purpose over to send Morse code?"

"Great ideas often only need to be heard by those who understand them."

She winked at Bai Yan, signaling for the two of them to talk privately.

The latter pretended not to see it.

"I believe Dr. May should understand the so-called proposal better than I do."

"To control a runaway horse, I believe strength is not enough; wisdom and composure are also required."

“I am far inferior to Dr. Mei in all these aspects. In this respect, she is much more like a talent scout than I am.”

"If in her judgment a horse needs to be tethered, or even bitten, then I would say yes and remind others to double down on it."

"After all, we are no more intelligent than Dr. May, so we should be more cautious."

Kiana glanced at Bai Yan, then at Vervi, and noticed that both of them were being very polite.

She wondered if Bai Yan's words were any more explicit than this woman named Wilvi's.

However, all Kiana saw was that Vervi quickly strode up to Bai Yan, bent down, and stared at him closely.

However, because it was pulled too tight, it was completely invisible.

"Whether it's a thoroughbred or not, why not ride it and give it a try?"

"I won't ride it."

"Don't you even know a little bit about it?"

"I don't want to know, because there's no redundancy here for you to blast."

“Uh,” Wilvi paused for a moment, “that was just an accident, a complete accident! I’m actually a genius!”

"So genius that he blew up his own workshop?"

"..."

Kiana listened for a while and seemed to understand something.

These two people don't seem to have met before, right? Why were they able to conduct this kind of negotiation without calling each other by name?

Virvi's gaze drifted over subtly, startling Kiana, but before she could react, the other woman had already appeared in front of her.

"Miss Kiana, hello, I am Velvi!" She removed her hat and bowed, as if it were a very formal occasion.

Sudden.

A sword aura shot out, knocking the hat off.

Startled, Vilvi stumbled back a few steps.

"Say hello and leave. This place can't withstand the noise you make while creating a new Divine Key."

"The Key of God?!" Kiana looked at Velvet, and familiar weapons such as the Judgment of Heaven flashed through her mind.

She had always known that the Key of God was a creation from the past era, but she never expected to see one of its creators in person.

Vervi then came to her senses.

"They're actually forbidding me from contacting Miss Kiana? It seems the rumors are true..."

"I have no interest in gossip. If there's nothing else, please leave. The Fifth Squad hasn't prepared any food for you."

There are two Herrschers here. What's the purpose of you being here, you creator of the Divine Key?

Bai Yan didn't feel very comfortable, especially since Kiana had four cores.

Moreover, Vilvi never considers cost when it comes to manufacturing, because her mind is filled with far more fantastical ideas than rational ones.

Otherwise, Dr. Mei wouldn't have withheld her funding.

Vilvi was very determined; she didn't leave and wanted to stay there.

"Regarding the core of the Seventh Herrscher, as a vanquisher, don't you want to witness a brand new Divine Key?"

"No. What use is a weapon other than killing enemies? You can't exactly use it to cook something on the fire, can you?"

Velvi snapped her fingers: "Great idea!"

Big V teacher, you've run out of funding.

Bai Yan pondered for a moment and said, "Hua, see the guest out."

"Yes……"

Hua picked up her hat and very politely led the way.

Wilvi still didn't want to leave.

Bai Yan gently raised his hand, making a gesture as if to launch sword energy.

Only then did Vilvi calm down and leave, slightly disappointed.

Kiana asked Bai Yan, "Why did she come here seeking cooperation?"

"It's very simple. Dr. Mei cut her funding and stopped her from doing those unnecessary things."

"She saw that we had only recently joined the Firemoth and that we had plenty of funds, so she decided to give it a try."

"This person needs Dr. Mei to keep him in check, otherwise who knows what kind of trouble he might cause."

Bai Yan continued to enjoy the ergonomic mental healing technique, calmly offering his sharp critique of Vervière.

But Wilvi's appearance was just the beginning, because Dr. Mei found Bai Yan.

When Bai Yan saw her that day, he noticed that she already had dark circles under her eyes.

It's strange. The Herrschers were all taken out before they could cause large-scale destruction. What is she doing that makes her so engrossed in her work?

“I think my judgment at the time was indeed correct. Before Kevin’s surgery, you should have left no regrets between you. The current situation is truly regrettable.”

Dr. Mei completely ignored the car that Bai Yan was driving.

“I have an alternative for that. But I’m here today to discuss other matters with you.”

"what's up?"

“Vilvie is very talented, but she must be given enough restraint, otherwise she will become like a wild horse that has broken free.”

"And among all the Moths of Fire, after much thought, I've concluded that you are indeed the best candidate."

Bai Yan first noticed the term "alternative solution".

Kiana has always felt that she is a homunculus, that not only was she given life by someone else, but even her name was given to her by someone else.

However, it is well known.

The first Kaslana was created.

Kiana has no idea just how beautiful she is.

Bai Yan felt that he needed to give Qi Bao a little more shock from the pre-civilization era.

"Hmm... Hmm? Me, to restrain Vilvie? To be honest, I know nothing about craftsmanship, so I'm afraid I'm not up to the task of supervising her."

"On the contrary," Dr. Mei shook her head, "you are the strongest warrior I have ever seen, with rich experience in that level of combat."

"Instead of having researchers like us develop the Divine Key based on imagination, it would be better if you provided practical experience."

"I think it's easier for Velvi to accept such an excuse from the bottom of her heart."

That’s what it meant.

All the wise words are no match for a punch to the face.

You, Vilvi, put on so much show, but you're still going to get one-punched and killed. If you can get one-punched, then your show is just a mess!

Reality will equally test any theorist.

Bai Yan nodded: "I understand. So you want me to torture her. I'm good at that, don't worry."

Dr. Mei: "..."

Something seemed off, but Dr. Mei felt that Bai Yan could understand what she meant.

"There's one more thing. What's the real reason that Aponia volunteered to join the Fifth Squad?"

"And the battle against the Eighth Herrscher, your report seems well-organized, but it is not."

"The higher-ups may not be able to see it, but I feel that you've overlooked some very important details."

Dr. Mei stared intently at him, a glint of wisdom flashing in her glasses.

Could you tell me in more detail?

Upon hearing this, Bai Yan revealed a meaningful smile.

Dr. Mei understood.

"Of course, I will do my best to meet your request."

Volume 1: Chapter 157: Bai Yan: Just bring it to me.

There was no specific offer; we only received a verbal promise from Dr. Mei.

Bai Yan would not have agreed to this if it were anyone else, but it was Dr. Mei.

Arriving in the previous civilization by accident was not his own choice, but taking this opportunity to investigate the secrets that once happened in the previous civilization is the most valuable thing for Bai Yan.

Kiana's existence is both unexpected and logical.

Bai Yan had carefully considered this and concluded that the two of them might have indeed participated in a major event of the previous civilization, but the arrival of the end destroyed everything, including their traces, which vanished into nothingness.

An era destined for destruction, people destined to perish...

An agreement was reached with Dr. Mei that she would have the opportunity to be the first to know about any special inventions or discoveries she made in the future, so that she could understand what the Herrscher of Knowledge meant.
