Honkai Impact 3rd, but I have too many mods.

Mei was momentarily stunned by the resolute statement that sounded like a confession.

After a while...

Mei rolled her eyes at Huang Quan.

"At least 90% of those who are here are willing to stay with Liu Bai until the end, so don't act like you're special here."

While such statements are indeed shocking, this is actually what many people are doing!

Liu Bai has no shortage of steadfast people like Huang Quan around him—it's just that many of them don't seem like that kind of person now.

How do you say that?

—The wind and frost distinguish the nature of plants and trees, and danger and chaos reveal the integrity of good people.

When the time really comes, there are plenty of people among those present who would be willing to die for Liu Bai.

Even if it's her...

If she had to choose at least one person to live, she would definitely choose Liu Bai.

"Stop asserting your dominance in front of me. If you want to assert your dominance, why don't you go find that Jade Lady over there?"

Mei looked disgusted.

Huang Quan was clearly taken aback for a moment, then pulled up a chair and sat down next to Mei.

"Let's get to know each other again. My name is Huang Quan."

"...I refuse, there's no need for that."

Mei reverted to her usual aloof, science-oriented self.

Mei is extremely unhappy with Huang Quan right now.

However, Huang Quan clearly didn't mind Mei's current coquettish hostility.

"Okay...can you share with me your perspective on Liu Bai?"

"...Hey, can you stop jumping into this kind of topic all at once?"

"Then tell me about your previous experiences of poisoning the gentleman?"

"..."

Chapter 458 Ye Lan: Where's my reward?

"Hey, Hanabi, I won!"

At three o'clock, Ye Lan, leaning against the wall, limped out.

"……Eh?"

Hua Huo was taken aback when she saw Ye Lan come out.

Wait a minute, is there really anyone who can hold out?

Isn't it said that there are almost no people who can beat Liu Bai head-on?

"Hehe~ You didn't expect that, did you? I'm the kind of person who gets super energetic when faced with thrilling and exciting activities."

Although she was limping and still giving herself away, Ye Lan now looked like a triumphant rooster, showing off the tally marks on her legs and the balloons that filled them with.

"This method of winning is really... disgusting."

Yelan's words are not difficult to understand at all.

The more Liu Bai lashed out with his whip, the more excited she became.

And then... he "passed the level" using this method.

So, understanding all of this, Hanabi immediately revealed... an indescribable, subtle expression.

"Fireworks, there won't be any reward, right?"

Ye Lan's smile carried a hint of threat.

With everyone participating so enthusiastically in this activity, don't tell her it's just for fun and there are no real rewards?

—Of course there's no actual reward!

Fireworks set this standard after consulting with many people indirectly.

The facts proved that no one had been able to clear the level in the past few days; even the strongest people had failed miserably in Liu Bai's room.

To prevent anyone from actually completing the challenge, one out of every ten balloons was coated with the Love Elixir.

Is this really not a case of Liu Bai and Ye Lan cheating together?

...No, it's too late now, even if it was cheating, I have to admit it.

After all, she was just a "small referee." As long as Liu Bai admitted it, that was the truth—on this point, Huahu could still distinguish between primary and secondary matters.

"Hanabi, is the reward, like the 'Grandma Trophy,' ready?"

Ye Lan could now see that Hua Huo hadn't prepared any prizes, but she didn't mind and instead hinted at it.

Don't worry, I'll give you a hint about the prize.

Just make a trophy, the material doesn't matter, the meaning is what matters.

However, Hanabi completely ignored this statement.

Having fun doesn't mean you're courting death!

If Ye Lan were to receive such an award, she'd probably die with Ye Lan the very next day!

"Well... everyone, congratulations to Sister Yelan for passing the first test!"

"...The first round?"

"That's right! Didn't they say from the beginning that this was the first round?"

Fireworks revealed a smug smile.

She, Lady Hanabi, is still the better one!

This is her perfect plan, Lady Hanabi!

Even if some unexpected minor mistakes occur, they can be easily resolved!

"Tsk..."

Ye Lan made a displeased sound, but in this matter... there seemed to be no room for cheating.

"Okay, who's next?"

"No one's here. Look, they're all asleep."

Fireworks pointed to the other side, because many people had to change their schedules because they had to queue up at Liu Bai's place these past few days.

While a few days of change wouldn't matter to these little superheroes, the problem is that the queuing process... is really quite boring.

Hearing others talk about this might make you blush at first, but later it becomes like a lullaby.

Not to mention that some people are actually a little hesitant about whether or not to participate in this kind of thing—like Mei and others.

They came here to join the fun because they were given tickets and had nothing else to do.

But both of them still have work to do; they're not the kind of people who, even if they don't sleep now, have plenty of time to sleep during the day—especially Mei, who isn't exactly a superhuman.

"Oh... does that mean I can spend the night in Liu Bai's room?"

"Actually, I'm wondering why you came out if you weren't dizzy."

"Of course I need to come out and relax..."

Ye Lan touched her thigh.

I can't hold on any longer, I really can't hold on any longer.

"That's it."

Hanabi's first thought was that this person was probably too weak from being whipped.

But after one look... never mind, even if she wasn't a medical professional, she could tell that the marks on Ye Lan's body weren't even superficial injuries.

I don't know if the whip itself was specially treated, or if Ye Lan is just thick-skinned.

However, after seeing Yoran's actions, Hanabi realized that this person's "inability to withstand" might actually be "too much resistance".

"Alright then, that's all for today~"

……

morning.

dong dong dong.

"Come in."

Good morning, Ms. Black Tower.

Estella tried to smile at the Black Tower.

Why do you look like a thief?

Even when speaking to his own disciples, Black Tower wasn't very polite.

"Cough cough... No, I didn't do anything wrong."

Estella retorted, slightly flustered.

"I've come here to apologize to you."

"Oh?"

Black Tower, who was lying in bed reading, glanced slightly at Estella.

This is what makes her a good disciple.

"Where is wrong?"

"..."

Estella knew she couldn't possibly hear "Oh no, I was wrong too" from the Black Tower.

"It's just... well, I didn't consider your feelings, Ms. Black Tower, when I did that kind of thing."

"I'm not involved in your affairs, why should I consider my feelings?"

Black Tower glanced at Estella, but Estella's words actually improved Black Tower's mood considerably.

That's exactly the kind of attitude we want from Estelle.

And... Estella's arrival now is just in time.

"Estella, do you have something to do today?"

"A little……"

"Irreplaceable?"

"...Shouldn't that be okay?"

Estelle scratched her head. "Is there something you need my help with?"

"Yes, you'll be with me for today's data collection."

"Really?"

Estella immediately showed a happy expression.

Although it hadn't actually been long, she felt like it had been ages since she'd worked with Liu Bai.

This also suited Estella's wishes, as it allowed her to drag Black Tower into the mess—however, Estella felt that what she had learned from Shin-haku yesterday was probably useless.

"...Would you rather use a doll to go out?"

Estella felt that if Black Tower was to be dragged into this, Black Tower would have to make its own appearance, right?

As for the dolls... while there are explanations for them, they give off a somewhat strange feeling.

"No, this time I'll take the lead myself."
