angry!
After thinking about it carefully, Alicia's anger subsided a lot. Thinking about sharing a bed last night and the wonderful dream, she realized that she was clearly closer to the wicked Jiang Qiao than Alicia herself!
Mebius had only swapped bodies with Jiang Qiao, and even if they kissed, the most important 'first time' had already been taken by Ai Li!
She's just a latecomer!
Alicia, who had this idea, smiled smugly.
We often call it the smile of a victor.
However, Jiang Qiao, who was sitting next to him, obviously did not think carefully about the meaning behind it. His memory was still stuck on his trip to the 'Snake Wonder House'.
How should I put it? Although he had completed the transformation from a 'boy' to a 'man' in a meaningful sense, Jiang Qiao clearly didn't value it much. Even the most important process in it was just so-so in his eyes.
In the most primitive 'reproductive behavior,' people try to seek physical and mental pleasure from it. However, for Jiang Qiao, who has an extremely strong ability to control his body, even this human body can be controlled to an extreme degree.
If he really needed this so-called pleasure, then Jiang Qiao wouldn't need to do anything. He could just sit there and adjust his brain's hormones to get the 'pleasure' that made him feel incredibly good.
The pleasure derived from reproductive behavior is nothing compared to this.
Therefore, he basically doesn't get caught up in this kind of thing—it's inefficient and boring.
If it happens, then the reason must be that someone wants to experience this kind of thing.
Although Jiang Qiao wasn't particularly interested in this, he wouldn't mind cooperating if she wanted to experience it through him, given their personal relationship—whatever makes you happy!
Take Mebius, for example. Although there are more efficient ways to obtain genetic material—Jiang Qiao doesn't need to do anything. He only needs a cup to instantly empty the deoxyribose stored in his body, and he can also perform 'blood-essence conversion' in quantities that are theoretically impossible for ordinary people to obtain.
For him, making cream puffs was truly just a matter of 'need or not'.
The blood flowing through the veins of this body can be used as material for transformation.
Out of personal interest, Möbius chose an inefficient, even rather foolish, method of collection, in the eyes of biological researchers.
In the process, perhaps out of curiosity, she would also try to experience what it feels like from another perspective—a very meaningful source of material for biological researchers.
To be honest...
Mebius clearly does not possess sufficient 'ability'.
No matter how much she had seen or how talented she was, at almost thirty years old, Mebius was just a greenhorn in terms of experience, lacking any real expertise or skill.
She also doesn't possess the same level of control as Jiang Qiao, which means that even if Jiang Qiao's body were to fall into Mebius's hands, it would be impossible for her to behave the same way as she did when she was in the hands of her master, Jiang Qiao.
In terms of operating the [Mebius] machine, Mebius is clearly no match for Jiang Qiao, who has an extreme level of proficiency and control over how to master the body. After a superficial familiarization with the body, Jiang Qiao can master everything about Mebius, including the muscles.
The meaning of being able to freely control muscles is self-evident—attempting to compete with the body controlled by Jiang Qiao is essentially no different from trying to compete with a 'hydraulic shears' or a 'vacuum cleaner'. Jiang Qiao can complete the 'collection' task that would normally take this body several minutes or even hours in a second.
Having realized this, Mebius obviously could no longer give his body to Jiang Qiao.
After all, if she, who spends most of her time in the office, is in extremely poor health, and has very little experience, were to continue like this, wouldn't this inefficient collection activity, which was carried out out of "revenge" and "getting revenge," be a complete failure and even incredibly shameful?
That wasn't 'humiliating' Luo at all, it was 'being humiliated'!
Mebius obviously couldn't accept this, and even if we take a step back, the defending side is much happier than the attacking side. Although it may seem that they are at a disadvantage, as long as they have the initiative, isn't that good enough?
That being said, when it comes to defense, Mebius, a mental worker, is undoubtedly a complete 'minor' when it comes to physical strength.
Even though she was on the defensive and had the advantage of not being humiliated by being defeated in a second, when facing 'Jiang Qiao', Mebius undoubtedly felt what a storm of attacks meant—every shot hit her hard, every strike was a critical hit, and she even learned what it meant to 'pretend to be fat when you're not.'
"Jiang Qiao! I want to go to Mu Continent too!"
"Hmm... ah?"
Jiang Qiao, who had just come to her senses, was somewhat surprised to hear this, while Alicia puffed out her cheeks and glared fiercely at the former with her slightly pinkish blue eyes—you naughty Jiang Qiao, you were even absent-minded while eating with me, Alicia... Hmph, you're probably thinking about other women again!
He said angrily:
"I said, I want to go to Mu Continent too!"
Alicia was quite persistent about this.
After all, he had sneaked into a room with Jiang Qiao at night and they even slept in the same bed. As a result, the next day Jiang Qiao was taken to the 'Snake Wonder House' by Mei to do experiments. He would only find her after the experiments were all finished.
This is how it is in the base. If Jiang Qiao were to go to Mu Continent alone, Alicia doesn't even want to think what might happen!
Follow! We must follow! And we must stay with them every step of the way!
Having learned her lesson, Miss Alicia was determined not to overlook any loopholes.
"Did MEI agree?"
Jiang Qiao had no objection to this; he had just asked casually.
These words made Alicia somewhat dissatisfied. Alicia, do I need her approval to supervise the bad Jiang Qiao? Well, it seems I really do need her approval.
After all, Alicia is an extremely important symbolic figure for the Firemoth, and all her movements must be reported to the organization. The Firemoth is a very strict military organization.
"Come with me to get the MEI approval application right now!"
An angry Alicia grabbed Jiang Qiao's arm and charged toward the MEI laboratory without saying a word.
But...
"You're going with him?" MEI frowned slightly.
"Ah."
Alicia thought Mei would agree, but the latter frowned and shook her head;
"I'm afraid not."
"Huh? Why?" Alicia was stunned.
“Currently, the organization is severely understaffed. Riots are happening all over the world, and we are already stretched thin in terms of manpower to deal with the collapse. If you go with him, you’ll know…” MEI said quite seriously.
Although the pink fat lady looks very leisurely, with nothing to do all day and seems to be wandering around the base.
But she is no ordinary person.
For the Fire Moth, Alicia, who currently has the strongest combat power on the surface, is undoubtedly a very important supporting combat unit for the Fire Moth.
Especially since the 'True Self Bracelet' hasn't been officially updated yet, the combat power of the Fire Moth Warriors is already inferior to that of the Honkai.
It's one thing to send Jiang Qiao to Mu Continent to pick up people, but theoretically, he doesn't belong to the Fire Chasing Moth. He's an additional combat force, and because he's very reliable, that's why MEI entrusted him with this task.
As for Alicia... given the current predicament, sending Alicia to Mu Continent with Jiang Qiao, who was already a sure thing, would be something that MEI, as the organization's manager, clearly wouldn't approve of.
"If possible, I would prefer you to go to Southeast Asia, where a massive collapse occurred three times ago, giving birth to an Emperor-class Honkai Beast that is currently awaiting disposal."
The Emperor-class Honkai Beasts are quite troublesome for the current Firemoth, second only to the Herrschers.
Even mobilizing a small team would be difficult to handle. If no powerful measures are taken, the only ones who can deal with this kind of incident are Sakura and Alicia – Sakura is not only in a difficult position, but she is currently investigating the Church of Apocalypse in Eastern Europe and cannot possibly go to Southeast Asia.
"...All right."
After hearing this, Alicia sighed and nodded.
Although she could choose not to go if she wanted to, and MEI certainly wouldn't force her to go, Alicia obviously wouldn't do that.
Even if Alicia wanted to 'watch over' Jiang Qiao, she couldn't abandon her original job because of it. After all, if she did, many innocent people would die. Alicia's sense of responsibility did not support her putting personal matters before public duty.
In that case, it seems that the only option is to let the fairy Ellie 'keep an eye' on the bad Jiang Qiao.
But when she thought of the fairy Ellie, who had been sleeping soundly like her that morning and had abandoned her the night before, Ellie found it hard to trust the little one beside her.
...Is there a safer way?
As she pondered, Alicia's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Jiang Qiao~ come here for a second~"
Alicia ran to the corner of the wall and smiled, hooking her little finger around his finger. Although Jiang Qiao was a little confused, she did not refuse.
In MEI's sight, Jiang Qiao approached Alicia, who was hiding behind the equipment, and then—was pulled inside.
"Give me!"
"Eh--"
"Cut the nonsense!"
"All right..."
Immediately afterwards, Jiang Qiao, holding a pink handkerchief, wiped her moist lips and walked out with a satisfied look on her face.
"Really..."
The pink-clad girl who came out with her—'Alice'—sighed.
Suddenly I have to change...
"Hmph~ This is my body~" Looking at Jiang Qiao who had re-entered Jiang Qiao's Ai Li form, Ai Li Xia hummed, puffed out her chest, and felt proud of the countermeasure she had come up with.
Jiang Qiao using her original body would make her worry that he would cause trouble on Mu Continent while she was away. So why not just keep Jiang Qiao in her original body instead of locking him in my body?
After all, she knew this bad guy's ways very well.
If it were Jiang Qiao's own body, he certainly wouldn't have many concerns, and he wouldn't have any taboos if he needed to.
But if it were another girl's body, especially my body, I definitely wouldn't do anything like that!
Of course—Alicia knew that if she told the original Jiang Qiao: "Don't do anything reckless."
Alicia guessed that this bad guy would agree to her request.
But that's obviously not going to work.
