Alicia leaned closer to Luo Zhen, her pink lips delicate and luscious, like glistening jelly:
"Would you like to try some? Girls are made of sugar, spices, and some wonderful things; they're very sweet~"
It seems my relationship with Alicia will be very close in the future?
However, as soon as Alicia got close, she immediately pulled away:
"Just kidding, I'm not the kind of person who would take advantage of an advantage and sneak away."
Alicia's crystal-like eyes shimmered with a pink light: "But were you tempted just now?"
"A little bit."
Luo Zhen frankly admitted it. Raven, who was watching from the sidelines, was a little tired. He knew that you guys had a good relationship, but could you please be mindful of the occasion? There are other people here. Does that mean that I am also part of your scheme?
The raven suddenly shivered, sensing something ominous, as if some dangerous figure was about to descend.
A large, dark green snake slithered towards them, and the sharp-eyed raven immediately fled upon seeing it: "Your Excellency, please continue your conversation. I have something to attend to and must depart!"
Just kidding, that's Mebius, one of the most dangerous lords of the Lost Paradise. There are even rumors that the Lost Paradise, which was originally absolutely safe, might disappear after encountering Mebius.
She ran into Möbius the last time she went to Paradise and almost couldn't escape.
"She runs really fast, does she think I'm going to eat her?"
Mebius appeared before Luo Zhen, glanced at the already vanished Raven, his snake-like vertical pupils fixed on Luo Zhen, and a saccharine smile appeared on his face.
"Brother Luo Zhen, how about we do something fun together? You'll definitely like it~"
"How audacious, Möbius."
Alicia teased, "Are you so eager to go on a date with Rozen?"
Luo Zhen looked at Mebius now. Unlike the mature woman form of the previous civilization, the memory body in front of him was petite and had an unremarkable chest, but her figure was unexpectedly supple and her waist was extremely alluring.
Although it's smaller, it's still very astringent.
Luo Zhen couldn't resist and reached out to cup Mebius's face, rubbing it vigorously.
Möbius's face was soft and felt wonderful to the touch.
"I want to rub it too!"
Alicia leaned closer and said, "Honestly, when it's just me, Mebius doesn't even want to wear a pink dress, let alone pinch my cheeks. I can only pinch Gretsch's cheeks."
As soon as she reached out, Mebius slapped her hand away, not letting her touch it at all.
"Honestly, Mebius, you're so biased! You only let Ryoujin touch your face."
Mebius ignored her and instead said to Luo Zhen in a seductive tone, "Is it only your face that you want to pinch? Why don't you come to my room?"
Alicia laughed, "Wow, Mebius, you're being a bit too bold! But Rozen promised to go on a date with me, didn't he?"
Luo Zhen refused: "No, it's bad for my health."
Mebius retorted somewhat displeased, "What are you afraid of? Do you think I'm going to eat you?"
"Of course you won't eat me, but whether you'll eat others is another story."
Luo Zhen was wary of the memory body Mebius, not because he was worried that Mebius would harm him, but because he was worried that Mebius would leave something on him to harm the Mebius from the previous civilization era.
This event is already recorded in Honkai Impact 3rd. During the synchronization of memories, he tried to plant the seed of suicide in his original body in order to make himself the only Möbius in the world.
The giant serpent from the pre-civilization era is not yet a fusion warrior; it is very fragile and easily manipulated.
Even if she becomes a fusion warrior, Mebius, as a memory entity, might still find a weakness to kill her. Aside from the 50,000 years of slumber, the memory entity might have been researching how to kill the original body during the 5,000 years since its awakening.
"Tsk."
Seeing that his thoughts had been read, Möbius clicked his tongue slightly, "Theoretically, you've only known that Möbius for a few days, so how do you understand my way of thinking so well?"
Mebius's serpentine eyes gleamed:
"What if I asked you to kill the original body and promised to help you maintain the course of history and keep it on track? I have all her memories. You came to the Land of Rebirth to find memories of the future, right?"
[Request: Mebius wants your help to kill the original body and assist her in impersonating it.]
[Reward for Commissions: The Corrective Force of History]
[The corrective power of history: You will maintain the history in Möbius's memory, and if there are any deviations, it will correct them back to the correct track.]

Volume 1: Chapter 53 - Rainy Night Neighbor (The story of the paint peeling like a rainbow, no pomegranate, overpass, Maybach)
Luo Zhen's trip to the Land of Bliss was motivated by his concern about the conflict between the views of the pre-civilization and the present civilization.
If the previous civilization had continued with his help, then the current civilization would not exist.
If the current civilization is to be preserved, the previous civilization will be destroyed in the end.
This is an irreconcilable contradiction, unless they are two different world bubbles.
However, Luo Zhen discovered that the gray snakes of the current civilization recognized him, indicating that they belonged to different timelines of the same world.
If it's not handled properly, it could really explode.
That's why he came here, hoping to get the walkthrough from members of the previous civilization who had already experienced it.
Therefore, faced with a reward that could correct historical errors, Luo Zhen would naturally choose—
"I reject."
Luo Zhen struck a JoJo pose, declaring, "One of the things I, Luo Zhen, love to do most is say NO to those who think they'll succeed!"
Alicia clapped: "That's a cool pose."
Möbius's expression remained unchanged: "Little lab rat, aren't you afraid that you might accidentally destroy both worlds?"
"I've always preferred perfect endings."
Luo Zhen said, "Even if I have to cheat, I will still create a happy ending that makes everyone happy."
Coincidentally, he did indeed have a cheat code.
"As expected of you."
Alicia said, "Actually, our memories are locked; there are some crucial things we don't know."
She looked at Luo Zhen: "Because of your abilities, Luo Zhen, there's a certain element of luck involved, right?"
Luo Zhen thought about the lottery in his reward, and realized that luck definitely played a part.
When it comes to gacha pulls, even a second's delay can result in a completely different outcome.
"So there's no need to worry. Just do what you think is right, believe in yourself, and you'll definitely achieve a perfect ending."
Hearing Alicia's words of comfort, Luo Zhen's eyes flickered slightly. If there was one person who was the most dangerous, it was Alicia without a doubt.
Everything in the current civilization, whether it's Otto's plan or Kiana becoming the End, is based on Alicia's self-sacrifice, which allows this generation of Herrschers to retain their humanity.
In the future, I should have found a way to keep her alive, right?
Alicia smiled but remained silent.
Leaving the paradise of the past, Luo Zhen returned to the shack, intending to check on the former civilization, when the shack's door slammed open and Toyokawa Shoko rushed in, grabbing Luo Zhen's hand:
"Manager, help me!"
…………
Toyokawa Shoko is in a very good mood today.
The charismatic shopkeeper, Luo Zhen, promised to help her resurrect her mother, and with a new shrine maiden helping her with her work, she could take a short break.
She also reached a reconciliation with the other members of Ku Lai Xi Ku, successfully resolving the misunderstanding.
The relationship between everyone returned to what it was before. Although she no longer had the energy to maintain the band, she could still hang out with everyone during her free time without worrying about not being able to afford coffee.
She was originally going shopping with Nagasaki Motoyo and Wakaba Mutsumi, but after clearing up the misunderstanding with Shiina Tatsuki and Takamatsu Akari, the five of them went out together again, as if they had returned to the most beautiful moment.
After enjoying most of the day, Toyokawa Shoko looked up at the sky. Thick, leaden clouds churned like ink, swallowing up the last rays of sunlight. The howling wind whipped up withered leaves and sand, stinging people's faces.
"Looks like it's going to pour. Let's call it a day."
She was in a Maybach, having the driver take the others home. She had just dropped off Takamatsu Akari and Shiina Tatsuki at home and was about to take Nagasaki Motoyo home when a thunderclap boomed and a torrential downpour began.
"heavy rain."
Shoko Toyokawa looked out the window. She remembered that it was raining just like that on the day her mother died.
In the pouring rain, the driver drove onto an overpass.
In Maybach, Nagasaki Motoyo asked in standard Mandarin:
"Xiao Xiang, who is your boyfriend?"
Despite her repeated clarifications that it was the store manager, not her boyfriend, Nagasaki Motoyo didn't believe her. Why would the heir of the Toyokawa family need to work for someone else?
This is clearly an intimate term of endearment between a young couple!
Shoko Toyokawa was too tired to explain anymore. Sigh, talking to people outside the real world is too exhausting. Perhaps this is the price of knowing the truth of the world.
"He is a very warm-hearted and helpful person. He will lend a helping hand to anyone."
Toyokawa Shoko was unaware that Luo Zhen could accept commissions and profit from them.
From her perspective, Luo Zhen is simply kind-hearted and can't bear to see others suffer. Although she can be a bit sharp-tongued, she is still very kind at heart.
Seeing the smile on Toyokawa Shoko's face, Nagasaki Motoyo felt a pang of jealousy. She always felt that Shoko preferred to stay by that man's side rather than her.
Will I lose Xiaoxiang? Will she marry that man, have children, and gradually drift apart from me?
Nagasaki Motoyo checked on her phone and found that after marriage, especially after having children, everyone's focus gradually shifts to their family, and their social interactions with the outside world become limited to work.
I absolutely do not want a future where I drift apart from Xiaoxiang. Is there any way to avoid this?
Nagasaki Motoyo used her extraordinary wisdom to come up with a good idea: if she seduced Xiaoxiang's boyfriend and made him cheat on her, would Xiaoxiang leave him?
That's not entirely safe. Xiaoxiang might find another boyfriend. Would it be better if I could have children at the same time as Xiaoxiang, and our children could go to the same school and be in the same class?
During holidays, the two families can travel together, and they also have common topics to discuss.
As Nagasaki Motoyo was pondering a better solution, she heard someone knocking on the car window.
She was just about to roll down the car window when she suddenly realized something was wrong. Wasn't the Maybach moving? How could someone catch up with a Maybach traveling at high speed?
