Mei is certainly a monster, otherwise she would not have become the leader of mankind from a researcher in just a few years, leading civilization's final struggle against collapse.
If we were to rank the figures of previous civilizations in order of importance, she would undoubtedly be in the top two. Half of the credit for later generations being able to defeat Honkai should be attributed to her.
Her foresight is so far-sighted that it seems like she has foresight. She has proposed many plans, and each plan has the possibility of success. She doesn't even care about the human body. The Stigmata Plan can already defeat Honkai.
Of course, Mei is not that perverted now, but she has begun to show signs of it. This meeting alone left a group of bigwigs speechless.
A true all-rounder may not be as in-depth in biology as Mobius, but is not far behind. She has full skills and emotional intelligence, knows how to balance the interests of all parties, and has an extraordinary sense of responsibility.
The time and energy spent on coordinating and guiding various research projects is incalculable.
"I also feel like I'm a paramecium. Kevin is really unlucky."Ryan shook his head. If he didn't have a destiny, he really couldn't be compared with these monsters. For example, Mobius could speak since birth and was no longer a human being.
Even though it was full of doubts, the proposal was still accepted by all parties because no one could find a more perfect solution than this. The only question was whether Dr. Mei could hold on.
This problem needs time to verify, but opportunities must always be given. In addition, Mobius, who is the most capable of causing trouble, chose to give Ryan face, and the research department of the Fire Moth actually reached a consensus for the first time.
"You think it's amazing."In the corridor, Mei threw a can of coffee over. She had already handed in the documents and there was no doubt they would be approved.The top leaders of the Fire Moth Group are already troubled by these scientists who cannot be beaten or scolded. If they can concentrate on their work, it will be good for all mankind.
"Scholars are also human beings. If you can take care of their interests, there will be no problem." Ryan unscrewed the lid and took a sip, forcing a smile. "I have to thank you. After the meeting, Mobius went to find Dr. Caddis to select volunteers and no longer had the energy to pester me."
The Mantis Project is the top priority, and unlike the original world line, it is much more relaxed now and there is no need to take the risk of using Kevin as a test subject.
Start with lower-level Honkai beasts, slowly increase the success rate, reduce side effects, and then use the Emperor-level or judgment-level materials in your hand to conduct experiments.
"She? She proposed to join the research on the Herrscher core again. She's still playing tricks, but I didn't point it out."
"You agree?"
"Well, humans are not in a position to be picky now. We should proceed steadily." Mei looked at the car lights outside the window. It was already night. "The Herrscher Core is the most precious treasure. I have done research. It is not possible to transplant it. Humans cannot analyze and copy it. But Vil-V proposed an interesting idea."
The Herrschers of the previous civilization were somewhat different.
They had no emotions, and their cores would lose their activity after the carrier died, making it difficult to even detonate them.
"She wants to make the Herrscher core into a weapon and channel that power?"
Mei glanced sideways, thinking that Vil-V and Ryan had mentioned it before, and nodded slightly. "Yes, this idea is possible. The key is how to guide this power out, and there is a prerequisite."
"Soul steel, there must be a container that can carry this energy." Ryan gave her the answer. Even though he knew that the Key of God would definitely succeed, he was also aware of the risks involved.
"There is a huge amount of Houkai energy in the Herrscher core. If it fails, it will cause a chain reaction, which is powerful enough to blow up a city. But if it succeeds, I can use my human body to borrow authority, which is very meaningful."
This is a huge project and also a dangerous one. To put it in another way, it is equivalent to letting the user become a transformer, guiding the authority and energy in the Herrscher's core and applying it to the real world.
"So soul steel is just one of the containers, and the user is the most critical container. But thanks to you, we have the Mantis Program. Of course, finding a compatible person requires many lives." Mei had a blank expression on her face, as if she didn't care about the cost.Mei is scarier than Elysia in one respect, which is that she will do whatever it takes to achieve the result, but this kind of rationality is what humans need if they want to defeat Honkai.
Ryan closed his eyes. He agreed with this idea, and all he could do was to make a suggestion: "I think we can install a program to limit the energy of the Herrscher Core and output it at rated power. This will prevent it from going out of control and reduce the danger to the user."
Mei eyes lit up, she thought seriously for a few seconds, and nodded heavily.
"Your suggestion is very useful. I will include it in the discussion at the next meeting."Of course, it works, isn't that what you do? Even though getting to this point requires the sacrifice of hundreds of precious lives.
Ryan was not too proud, so he threw the coffee can casually, and it flew several meters and landed accurately in the trash can.
"You came all the way here to wait for me, not just to listen to my advice, right?"
"What else? Asking about your progress with Mobius?"
"Don't tease me. You should be able to tell that there's nothing between her and me."
Mei didn't say anything, just looked at Ryan, which made him feel creepy, and then said, "I'm suddenly a little worried about Kevin."
"Hey, I'm not gay, and my sexual orientation is fine."
"Then Mobius doesn't meet your aesthetic standards? Do you want me to call the police?"
"I'm not a lolita either!"Mei gave a small smile, she could see Ryan was hesitant, as if he was looking for an answer but knew there was no answer, just like herself and Kevin.
Feelings like this have nothing to do with rationality.
"I'm not teasing you anymore. Actually, I've seen the battlefield picture where the Cocoon were completely wiped out, and it feels familiar. Stop, no need to find excuses. I have no intention of prying into your secrets." Mei became serious, with a certain hope in her eyes. "The deeper you study imaginary numbers, the more desperate you feel. The collapse is not as simple as they think. If there is a change in the predetermined fate, it will be you and Elysia."
Ryan said nothing. He didn't know how far Mei had gone in her research, but as friends for so many years, he knew that Mei wouldn't talk nonsense.
"What do you want me to do?"
"The future is like a fog. Maybe some people can see some fragments. Just like you are very different from when you were in the academy. I believe you must have a plan, so please do your best. I am looking forward to some changes." The girl stared at him, with only a rational and cold expression on her face:
"Even if you are hope, you are also a disaster, but the charm of the future lies in this uncertainty."Mei seemed to be speaking in a riddle, and even Ryan didn't quite understand it. He only understood the intelligence of this girl.
Just from the change in my thoughts, you guessed some clues and determined that I was the mastermind behind it?Ryan stopped exclaiming and asked seriously, "I will. Also, the awarding ceremony is about to begin. Do you want to go?"
"I still have to attend a meeting with Dr. Vidic. Please go in my place and congratulate Kevin for me."
What's the point of my congratulations? Never mind. Kevin should have gotten used to it by now.
Ryan said nothing, just nodded, turned and left. Since Mei had decided to give everything for the future of mankind, why should he meddle in other people's business?
Mei put her hands in her pockets until the footsteps faded away, then she sighed softly, looked at the hustle and bustle outside, drank the last sip of coffee, and threw it away like Ryan did.bang.
The can hit the edge of the trash can and bounced out. The girl couldn't help but laugh and was about to walk over to pick it up when another figure threw it in for her.
Sakura walked out from the shadows. She changed into a professional suit, wearing a white shirt and casual trousers. She looked like a beautiful white-collar worker, but her expression was still indifferent.
"You guessed it from me?"
"They inexplicably sent a security director here, and with your skills, you look very much like someone from the Cocoon. Combined with the southern desert incident, it's not hard to guess."Sakura shut her mouth. The task Ryan gave her was simple, which was to protect Dr. Mei. She had already prevented several assassinations.
"I'm curious about what kind of deal he made with you that made you choose to betray him."
"This has nothing to do with you." Sakura shook her head and refused to say a word.
Mei did not ask any further questions, but guessed from the small details that Ryan was weaving a web that even she could not understand.
For example, this Sakura had a high degree of compatibility with the super-mutation factor and had the possibility of fusing with a judgment-level Honkai beast.
Why was he allowed to survive with so many Cocoon? Why did he risk her life to save Vil-V? Why did he help cleanse the Pure Blood? Was he so sure that technology could not defeat Honkai?
Are these all coincidences?
She had no answer and only talked to herself in her heart.
If this era is bound to perish and needs to pass on the flame to future generations, your life will have more meaning than mine.
What I have is knowledge, but if you want, you can have everything!
