Ryan gradually began to have a headache. He found that the more secrets he revealed, the more abnormal Mobius became. She was like a python, wrapping herself up more and more.
The woman seemed to have changed her strategy. When the hard approach didn't work, she tried the soft approach. Moreover, she could adapt to different situations and was very good at pleasing others.
No wonder in the Paradise of the Past, she was able to imitate Elysia's tone to the point of being 90% or even 80% similar.
Mobius was very good at judging people, and after discovering that they were interested in stockings, she immediately started to specialize in their skills. Black, purple, white, suspenders, jumpsuits, below the knee, cotton, translucent, horse oil, one after another, gave Ryan a higher understanding of the materials science of human civilization.
Unfortunately, Ryan was already on guard and would not fall for the same trick because if he showed any interest, the woman's eyes would immediately reveal teasing and mockery. As if to say: You sound tough on the outside, but your body is actually very honest, you are really cute.
No one can control me, and I cannot lose face in front of you.
Ryan snorted and looked out the window. The business jet was flying steadily in the clouds. The next day after returning to the institute, he and Mobius were going to attend a meeting at the Fire Moth headquarters in New New York.
The content was to integrate the five research institutes and determine the key projects.
This is an inevitable result. The Herrscher of Thunder not only blew the horn of war, but also explained a cruel thing:
As the strength of the Herrscher increases, the situation has surpassed the limits of human technology. As long as no alien technology is obtained, the speed of research and development will never match the strength of the Herrscher.
One mistake means the survival of a city, a continent, or even the entire human civilization. This is also the obligation that the Fire Moths must bear after gaining a lot of power.
Of course, this does not mean that technology is useless, but at least research and development cannot exclude Honkai energy. It must focus on utilizing this imaginary energy and make overall plans.
Resources are important, but time is even more precious.
"It's finally on the right track. I can't say how much I contributed, but at least it saved me several years."
Ryan tapped the armrest with his fingertips. He knew that the success of this idea did not depend on how many people he killed, but on following the trend and standing on the side of the interests of the majority.
The group of little geniuses above like to fight for power, but none of them are idiots. Even the Pure Blood are thinking about how to defeat Honkai.
There is no distinction between good and evil; all paths lead to the same destination.
"But they are still too arrogant, thinking that Honkai is just that capable. If they don't try their best, they will only regret it in the future. Hey, can you please go to sleep?"
Ryan turned his head and saw Mobius sitting next to him. The woman was lying on her side, pulling up and loosening her extremely elastic stockings, hitting them on her white thighs, making a 'pa pa' sound.
"You can knock on the handrail, but I can't pull my stockings?"
"I was thinking."
"I'm also thinking, why, can't we do something a little bit?"
Ryan was choked. Mobius was sharp-tongued and he really couldn't win the argument with her. As a reasonable person, he would not act unreasonably.
"You just want more funding. I'll give you a tip. Mei will be in charge of this from now on. Build a good relationship with her first."
"Hmph, that little girl climbed over my head. Well, I admit that she has some capabilities." Mobius was not jealous. She had read the internal information and knew that the First Institute had made another breakthrough discovery under Mobius' leadership, but her eyes rolled.
"Why should I have a good relationship with her? I have you here."
Okay, you want to squeeze even this, right?
Ryan felt more and more that Mobius should be put to death as she actually wanted to use me as a connection.
"You haven't clarified the previous matter yet, why should I help you?"
"You're talking about that..." Mobius played with her long hair beside her ear and showed a weird smile: "I didn't lie, why should I clarify? I have your genes in my body now. From a genetic point of view, we are now like father and daughter."
It sounds even weirder, but it seems to make sense.
Ryan knew that the special factor was extracted from his own blood, fused with the Honkai Beast gene, and then injected into Mobius' body to change her cells and genes.
Genetically speaking, Mobius already had a fragment of his genes.
No, this is getting weird. If I keep thinking about it, will I hear the call of my blood?
"You have no shame, but I still want it, so stop talking nonsense."
"Who is talking nonsense? This is the purest biology. Your thinking is too low. I have been thinking about a topic recently. If you and I really give birth to a child, will the original gene fragments be purified?"
Ryan's eyes twitched wildly, and he lowered his voice: "Are you serious?"
"Really? I've already prepared the test tube." Mobius came over and rubbed her hands like a fly. "It all depends on whether you can make a small contribution to science."
Ryan took a deep breath, looked at Mobius' fair profile and the dangling golden earrings, and raised his middle finger decisively.
...
The plane landed at the New New York Air Force Base. A fleet of black luxury cars was waiting beside the runway. A girl with long blue-gray hair stood beside the cars, as straight as a pine tree.
Hua had her hands behind her back, her fingertips trembling uneasily. She didn't even pay attention to the elegant man's conversation next to her, only responding with an occasional "hmm," even though that was her senior eldest brother.
"They are here." Wayne held his hat with his hand, a smile on his face, "Hua, you are lucky, otherwise you wouldn't be able to go to the Fifth Institute."
"Well, thank you for your concern." The girl still had a stern face, and her green eyes followed the path of the plane, even though she knew that the person next to her was an important figure.
The look in her eyes was strange, the surface was full of fatigue and pain, but deep in her eyes there was burning hope, as if it was a moving torch, attracting the attention of moths.
The silver-white plane finally stopped and the cabin door opened. Hua couldn't wait to greet it, and then stopped after taking a few steps.
Ryan was the first to come out, looking very impatient. There was a woman with long green hair lying on him. Hua also recognized this person.
Dr. Mobius, director of the Fifth Institute and the rumored girlfriend of my senior.
Hua had always scoffed at these rumors. She knew Ryan was very smart, but he was focused on saving the world, and it was impossible for him to have a girlfriend. But now she saw that when her pupils contracted, her brain crashed due to overload.
"Go away quickly. I don't want to be laughed at by the people of Fire Moth." Ryan was impatiently pulling Mobius off. This woman kept pestering him to sacrifice herself for science.
What a joke, you haven't even sacrificed yourself yet, and you want me to come? No, why should I be your guinea pig?
Of course, Ryan would not agree. He was the only one who could use others as guinea pigs, not himself. He thought to himself that Mobius was going too far recently, and he must find a chance to teach him a lesson.
Just as he pulled the snake away, he felt a familiar gaze again. He looked over subconsciously and the corner of his mouth twitched on the spot.
Hua? Why did she come to New York?
In an instant, several thoughts flashed through his mind. When he saw Wayne in the distance, his brows furrowed and he quickly walked down the gangway.
"Why are you here?"
"I'm here as a representative of the new recruits to attend the medal ceremony, and I happened to come to the airport to greet you." Hua stood straight, and her face looked very serious even without trying hard.
Subordinates?
Ryan was stunned, he was not stupid, of course he could hear the anger in Hua's voice. The child was not good at talking, and she looked like this every time she was angry. She was used to it.
So his clever brain started working rapidly again and he turned his head to look behind him.
Well, it's you again, Mobius.
Ryan was very upset. This Mobius must have a grudge against him, right? It was so easy to get into trouble.
But he didn't explain. Firstly, with so many people watching, it was not a good time to speak. Secondly, he knew Hua too well. This girl was very stubborn and could not be fooled by just a few words.
"I'll tell you later." Ryan patted Hua's shoulder gently, removed the leaves from her hair, and walked towards the convoy.
The girl's stern face softened instantly, and she subconsciously raised her head slightly to look at Mobius on the gangway.
The two actually met when Ryan was seriously injured and unconscious, but when they met again now, their eyes on each other were a little different.
Mobius narrowed her eyes, with a forced smile and a scrutinizing look in her eyes, repeating Ryan's actions over and over again.
Very gentle and natural.
She wasn't jealous at all, but she felt a little unhappy instinctively.
Hua had a blank expression on her face, but with stubbornness in her eyes, and was also examining the other person.
No one spoke, but the early autumn air became chilly, and Klein, who was carrying the large and small boxes, shrank back.
Snort.
I don't know how long it was before they both turned their heads away at the same time.
Ryan actually felt that the atmosphere behind him was not right, but he did not look back. He just walked to the front of the convoy and looked at Wayne, who was smiling ambiguously.
"Why are you laughing?"
"No, I just feel that you have changed over the years. With your former indifference, you shouldn't have gotten into this kind of trouble." The man took off his hat elegantly, hiding the surprise and joy in his eyes.
This joy was certainly not directed towards Ryan's feelings because cold-hearted people were the hardest to control, and the family had worried a lot about him over the years.
From a lady from a wealthy family to a daughter of an aristocrat, if Ryan was hungry, he would have enough maids to change one every day, and never the same one twice.
Ryan also knew these things. How should I put it? Just like the superheroes in those movies, if they can't deal with you, they can deal with the people around them. Human emotions are the biggest weakness.
But he did not regret it. Ryan wanted to be a human being, not an emotionless ghost.
"So you brought Hua here specially?"
"This has nothing to do with me. The medal ceremony was proposed by the Operations Department, and your junior sister has performed very well in the past two months. She and Kevin are both representatives. You know that propaganda is also very important."
I know it's not that simple, but I just can't find any fault with it. I can only say that those who can become members of parliament are not stupid.
Ryan waved his hand to let the bodyguards leave, opened the car door himself, sat in the back seat, and looked up at his brother.
"Then let's hurry up and settle the task."
