V2/Chapter 69: Can we communicate seamlessly across a channel?
Objectively speaking, Klein is definitely a scholar with great potential. The fact that she was noticed by Mobius and entrusted with important tasks is enough to prove her strength.
Obviously, assistants are also divided into high and low levels. Klein, who can handle various affairs within the institute independently, is much better than the sisters who are always responsible for buying milk tea for those who are late and handing tools during surgery.
But Klein herself knew very well that compared with Dr. Mobius, she still had a lot to learn.
As for Dr. Ai Yue, whom even Dr. Mobius could only sigh in despair, she dared not even think about it.
You know, even when Dr. Mobius occasionally had sweet dreams and talked in her sleep, she only dared to say things like "Ai Yue, I am finally on equal footing with you, hehehe", and she dared not imagine the scene of surpassing Ai Yue. This shows how big the gap between the two people is in Mobius' heart.
Therefore, in Klein's view, although Ai Yue is a friendly person with a surprisingly normal personality, the reason why she can know him is entirely because of the relationship with Mobius. Apart from that, she is afraid that it will be difficult for her to have any real intersection with Ai Yue in her life.
But such an unreachable person actually said that he wanted to talk to her?
Klein's first reaction was that she was hallucinating because she stayed up late to do the experiment.
But this is impossible. In the past, even if she worked overtime for three days and three nights, as long as she had coffee and milk tea, she would not have hallucinations. What's more, this time she only worked for one night.
Therefore, her second reaction was to think that the Ai Yue in front of her was disguised as some strange creature.
So after getting over her initial confusion, a hint of vigilance appeared in Klein's eyes.
"Dr. Ai Yue, what do you want to talk about?"
She didn't show any special reaction on the surface, but in fact her right hand had already touched the alarm under the table. As long as Ai Yue in front of her made any strange move or revealed his true identity, she would immediately call the police and let the fusion warriors who stayed at the headquarters to maintain security rush in and take him down.
This vigilance naturally could not escape Ai Yue's eyes, but in his opinion, such behavior was very reasonable.
Because he knew clearly that in the original plot, Klein also became a member of the Herrscher of Domination.
However, even among all the Herrscher of Domination, Klein is the most "harmless" one.
This does not mean that the other party is a special being who is unwilling to harm humans, but because Klein's chosen goal is to "assassinate Mobius."
Yes, it is to assassinate the immortal Mobius.
In the original plot, Klein did succeed - she used her ability to kill Mobius when she was off guard. However, this scene was witnessed by Su who happened to enter the First Research Institute. Su, who had become a fusion warrior, immediately used his ability to control Klein, but just as he was thinking about how to deal with Klein, Mobius was resurrected.
Because Mobius's resurrection required sufficient nutrients, she unconsciously devoured the energy source closest to her, that is, Klein, the Herrsche. Su did not stop this for his own reasons. For this reason, he felt guilty for not being able to save Klein and chose to hide it from Mobius.
Ai Yue originally did not want to intervene in this matter, because when he knew that the Ninth and Tenth Herrscher appeared at the same time, he realized that it was too late to save Klein, so he could only hint this matter to Mobius and let the other party make the decision herself.
But he didn't expect that after he walked out of the laboratory, Klein and Mobius were still alive.
Although it was unknown why Klein did not take action, this gave Ai Yue an opportunity, an opportunity to try to turn the Herrscher of Domination back into a human being.
This is why he went to talk to Klein.
"Things have come to this point, and I think it would be better to be open and honest."
Thinking of this, Ai Yue simply stated his purpose directly. He took out a small device from his pocket and placed it in front of Klein. "With this thing, your connection with the other side will be completely cut off. There is no need to worry about anything anymore."
This is what he invented by reverse-engineering the core of the Herrscher of Domination. It can block the connection between the tenth Herrscher that ignores physical distance like quantum entanglement, and release a camouflage signal, allowing the isolated individuals to still express a normal state in the connection network of the Herrscher of Domination.
In this way, even if Klein as an individual noticed the abnormality and warned other individuals, other individuals would not be able to receive effective signals. Since they could not receive effective signals, they would naturally not choose to dominate and cut off this normal individual signal.
In other words, the most critical problem encountered by Dr. Mei and others, "unable to capture the Herrscher of Domination alive", has been solved by Ai Yue. Now they only need to control Klein, so that Ai Yue can study her and try to access the huge mental network in the other party's identity and study or destroy it.
But to Klein, such words were undoubtedly a blatant threat - the other party had actually blocked the communication system of the First Research Institute, making the alarm unable to work properly, so her original plan would naturally go down the drain.
But this also confirmed Klein's previous guess. The person in front of her was indeed not the real Dr. Ai Yue, but a villain who appeared here in the other person's identity through some unknown loophole and wanted to steal important information!
Although Klein was powerless, as the second person in charge of the First Research Institute, how could she choose to surrender just because of a threat? Even if it cost her life, she had to protect Dr. Mobius's precious experimental data!
So Klein stood up without hesitation, wanting to fight to the death with the other party: "I won't let you succeed! I..."
Klein couldn't finish her words because Ai Yue, who was watching her every move, suddenly attacked the moment she made any unusual movement, instantly completing the transformation of the armor and then pressing Klein down on the table.
"Stop struggling, it's just a waste of energy."
Ai Yue, who thought the other party wanted to commit suicide, said this, and then put his hand into Klein's collar, "Let me see your Herrscher Core!"
Klein, who was still struggling, was stunned: "What Herrscher Core?"
Ai Yue, whose hand was almost reaching for Klein's stomach, was also stunned: "Huh? Where's your Herrscher Core?"
The two people looked at each other speechlessly at this moment, and both felt that they seemed to have made something wrong.
At this moment, the door of the First Research Institute opened.
"Ah, I'm so tired. Klein, how are your experimental data going..."
Mobius walked in while stretching, and almost sprained her back when she saw the scene in front of her, "What are you two doing!"
