I'm in Honkai Impact's Infinite Abyss!

Chapter 247: Chapter 6: Research Direction and Candidates



"The reception hall of the Elysian Realm hasn't been this lively in ages..."

Elysia sat on a chair beside the bar, scanning the room. She observed Griseo vigorously working on a drawing board, fully engrossed in her task. By Griseo's side, Kosma stood silently as always, serving as her vigilant guardian.

On the other side of the sofa sat two individuals, Hua and Sakura. Sakura's serious demeanor made Hua appear somewhat awkward and uncomfortable.

"Yeah, but it seems like everyone's waiting for someone," Eden remarked as she pushed a glass of wine towards Elysia.

Without hesitation, the pink Elf downed it in one gulp.

"Indeed, I wonder what Little Luo Lin has been up to outside, making Miss Raven so anxious..."

"She looks quite fierce," Eden commented, casually swiping the tablet on the bar. The screen started playing a shaky, low-resolution video where a pink figure aggressively pursued the person filming, causing them to retreat continuously.

Elysia had watched this video many times before.

Propping her head with one hand, she muttered, "Oh, Luo Lin isn't quite proficient with my powers yet. If it were me, I wouldn't have let Raven escape like that."

"Swish, swish~" In the dim corner of the reception hall, a black cloak trembled slightly.

Pretending not to notice the newcomer, Elysia continued, "Oh well, just thinking about Luo Lin causing trouble in my image makes me feel quite distressed... I'll probably end up shouldering a lot of blame..."

Eden tapped the tabletop with her fingertip, smiling as she said, "I think you actually enjoy it, don't you?"

"Haha... well, maybe just a little?" the Pink Elf gestured, squinting her eyes.

"Hmm?" Eden paused her action of pouring wine for Elysia, taking a deep breath before whispering, "Miss Luo Lin is here."

All the inhabitants of the reception hall turned their heads towards the direction of the stairs.

Luo Lin ascended the steps with Senti in tow, surveying the lively scene in the reception hall. She paused for a moment, exclaiming, "Wow, so many people!"

"You're finally here," Elysia exclaimed, leaping off her chair and rushing to Luo Lin's side. "What brings you here today? Planning to attempt the trial of Elysian Realm?"

"I could, but before that..." Luo Lin glanced around, noticing everyone's gaze fixed on her. The dark-haired Valkyrie lowered her voice and asked, "Elysia, is there a place where we can be alone? I have something else to discuss with you..."

"Oh? Quite bold of you," Elysia raised an eyebrow.

Luo Lin chuckled awkwardly, "It's serious business! Please, Elysia."

"Since you put it that way..."

"Miss Luo Lin!"

The pink-haired assassin approached, stopping a short distance away. "Sakura, hello! Is something the matter?"

"...Kalpas hasn't been in the best mood lately. It seems he's been wandering around the outskirts of Elysian Realm after being interrupted during the last battle. If you're planning to undertake the trial of Elysian Realm anytime soon, be sure to avoid the outskirts and be cautious," Sakura warned.

Luo Lin paused for a moment before replying, "Thank you for the reminder, Sakura. I'll keep that in mind."

Nodding, Sakura briskly turned and walked away. She had been waiting here for quite some time, seemingly just to give Luo Lin a warning.

Luo Lin glanced at Senti beside her. With a sudden inspiration, Senti interrupted, "I wasn't able to go all out last time... well, let's focus on helping Seele now. Let's get moving."

"Seele?" Elysia heard the new name and, hands on her hips, her eyes lit up. "I have a feeling she must be a very pretty girl!"

"Your intuition is quite sharp..."

Luo Lin was at a loss for words.

Elysia led the two to the teleportation gate. With a gentle touch, she opened a portal and stepped through.

Luo Lin and Senti followed, arriving at a quiet area. The sky here emitted a soft, gentle pink glow, not harsh on the eyes.

"Alright, there should be no one to disturb us here," Elysia said, closing the portal. She locked eyes with Luo Lin. "What do you need my help with?"

Shrugging, Luo Lin explained the issues and challenges she had encountered.

Elysia stood with her mouth slightly open, "I thought it was just a simple matter... I didn't expect your problems to be related to the Sea of Quanta. And you're even holding the 'Key of Revelation'..."

Approaching Luo Lin, Elysia furrowed her brows as she asked, "Hmm? I remember Vill-V mentioning that the 'Key of Revelation' also had a 'Prometheus' AI inside. Why is there only a blank now?"

"Uh, Void Archives..." Luo Lin's gaze wandered. "It climbed the Imaginary Tree ."

"?" Elysia raised an eyebrow.

"Cough, it's actually a parallel world's 'Key of Revelation', so having some issues is quite normal..." Luo Lin coughed twice, steering the conversation back. "To help Seele, I want to explore how others manipulate the body I summon. I want to understand the entire process..."

"Hmm, for that, we should find Dr. Mobius..."

Elysia pursed her lips, chuckling bitterly. "Ah, now that I think about it, whenever I encounter a problem, Dr. Mobius is the first person that comes to mind... It's a pity..."

The Pink Elf shook her head.

Luo Lin fell silent for a moment. She was well aware of Dr. Mobius's research expertise.

If she could enlist Dr. Mobius's help in researching herself, there was a high probability of some earth-shattering results, perhaps even causing ripples in the void tree and the Sea of Quanta.

But they obviously couldn't ask the real Dr. Mobius for help now, considering she had been gone for fifty thousand years.

After a brief pause, Luo Lin continued, "Then... shall we go find Dr. Mobius?"

"Finding her? That's quite appropriate..." Elysia nodded. "I remember she's been pondering how to leave the Elysian Realm. Your problem seems to overlap with her research direction."

After a moment of thought, Elysia nodded.

Luo Lin took a deep breath. "So, you know what Dr. Mobius is up to..."

The pink Elf flashed a mysterious smile. "Cute girls can do anything, you know!"

Senti glanced around, a sudden spark of inspiration igniting in her mind. She interjected, "Luo Lin, since you have Elysia's character card, why not let Elysia also try controlling this possession thing?"

"Right!"

Luo Lin turned to Elysia.

The pink Elf's eyes gleamed. "Interesting, count me in!"
