I'm in Honkai Impact's Infinite Abyss!

Chapter 249: Chapter 8: Lowering the Average Education Level Present



Elysia felt somewhat speechless, "It seems like you've really buried yourself in research for over a dozen days. Your completely oblivious to recent events in Elysian Realm..."

"Oh, when I get into my research, I tend to lose track of everything else."

Vill-V's mind shifted slightly. She guessed that the current situation might not be as dangerous as it seemed.

At least Elysia was still in the mood to poke fun at herself rather than running around trying to solve this Herrscher...

She rubbed her wrist, then felt herself relax.

Miss Herrscher Sentience sensed Vill-V's diminishing alertness and turned to look at Miss Pink Elf, "Elysia, everyone in Elysian Realm trusts you a lot!"

"Mm-hmm!"

Elysia blinked, then continued to circle around with light steps, as if the previous dance hadn't been fulfilling enough.

Soon, Miss Pink Elf explained the meaning behind her actions to Luo Lin and Senti, "I'm adjusting to this brand new body; it's quite compatible with me, but there might be a bit of an issue with exerting force..."

Elysia casually took out "Whisper of the Past," hooked her finger onto the bowstring, and a purple crystal arrow formed.

In the next moment, the crystal arrow shot out, splitting into five, twisting through the air, and exploding into five pink fireworks in the depths of the data space.

Afterwards, Miss Pink Elf looked somewhat regretful while shaking her head, "With just the power of this body alone, I can only do this much."

Luo Lin didn't hesitate to say, "Teach me that move!"

It was like piloting a Gundam; even with a high-performance unit, the difference between an ace pilot and a novice pilot was huge. The former could become a powerful force determining the outcome of the battlefield, while the latter could only end up being beaten like a golden chef.

"Sure, little Luo Lin, but wasn't that what you wanted just now?" Elysia pointed her index finger at her lips as a reminder.

Luo Lin snapped out of it, asking, "Right, did you feel how you're controlling this body?"

"Of course, it's all about feeling!" Elysia looked at Luo Lin's puzzled expression, feeling a bit embarrassed as she scratched her head, "Well, if I have to explain, it's like using Honkai Energy. It's like saturating a sponge with water, gradually filling it with your own power, and then naturally being drawn in..."

"...Honkai Energy, huh." Luo Lin glanced at the conspicuous deep blue quantum attribute background of "Stygian Nymph" on the Valkyrie panel, furrowing her brows gradually.

Thinking carefully, Seele awakened her Stigmata very early on. Stigmata Awakeners had a higher resistance to Honkai Energy, and there was a high probability that they could also manipulate Honkai Energy. However, after Seele underwent the X-10 experiment, she quantumized herself, disappearing from the real world and inadvertently receiving the gift of the Sea of Quanta, thus gaining the power to manipulate quantum energy.

As it was well known, the Tree of Imaginary Numbers and the Sea of Quanta were mortal enemies, and the relationship between imaginary and quantum was not very friendly either.

So, Seele who awakened her Stigmata but could manipulate quantum energy... she probably didn't even know what kind of feat she had accomplished, right?

Comparable to a certain gorilla in an infinite horror series who exchanged for a vampire bloodline and cultivated true qi after practicing, playing with opposing attributes like bombs every day...

Wait, didn't Seele appear completely unaware of any conflict between these two powers? Then how did she manage that?

Watching Luo Lin lost in thought, Vill-V snuck up to Elysia and whispered, "What's wrong with her?"

"Same as you when you encounter an interesting problem, and got lost in thought."

Elysia wasn't particularly surprised; she had seen this situation too many times before.

Every day, she could see Dr. Mei completely absorbed in her research, not eating or sleeping, almost needing to be hooked up to a nutrient solution, refusing to sleep, and going crazy with research for twenty-four hours.

Because Dr. Mei was just too much of a genius, ordinary people couldn't keep up with her train of thought, so she was usually a bit lonely, and Elysia had to often check in on her in her lab...

Of course, Mobius was similar, but thankfully she had a few close assistants. Although they weren't very good at cooking, they could at least bring Mobius some instant noodles.

Even though Mobius had experienced being force-fed noodles into her own nose, she could still eat properly most of the time.

Vill-V... Vill-V wouldn't encounter the completely absorbed in research and unable to eat situation, after all, among her multiple personalities was a chef who loved cooking, so if she researched for a few more days, "Chef" would come out to protest, and she would have to cook something delicious herself.

Narrowing her eyes, Vill-V asked, "I heard you say 'this body' just now, what does that mean?"

Elysia patted her chest, "Literally, look at me now, using the one provided by little Luo Lin with a physical body, I probably can just walk out of Elysian Realm like this..."

"Oh... Huh?!"

Vill-V almost fell to the ground. She showed rare signs of panic, she then trembled as she took out another lens from her magnificent hat.

This thing and the previous scanning lens should be the same type of product; the 'Expert' aimed the lens at Elysia, and dense data appeared on it.

"Really different..."

Vill-V widened her eyes. She put her hand on Elysia's shoulder, and several mechanical arms emerged from her back, each equipped with various tools like pliers, drills, saws, and welding guns... everything you could think of.

Miss Pink Elf had black lines all over her face as she pushed away one of the approaching mechanical arms with her longbow, saying somewhat discontentedly, "Wake up, 'Expert', don't just get lost in the world of research on your own."

Vill-V took a deep breath, "Hiss! You're right, why don't you come back to my Helixcraft with me now..."

"Hey hey hey! How could you forget what you wanted just now, like little Luo Lin?"

Vill-V said carelessly, "Well, then I'll just take this Miss Luo Lin with me as well."

"It seems like I have to personally experience the feeling of simultaneously controlling Honkai Energy and Quantum Energy..."

Just then, came Luo Lin's grumbling from beside them.

Elysia and Vill-V turned their heads together and saw the black-haired girl transform, "Stygian Nymph" appearing before everyone.

"Luo Lin version - Stygian Nymph" wielded a simple black sickle, with purple and light blue dots flickering in her hand at the same time.

Then, the two conflicting forces suddenly annhilated, causing a small explosion.

Boom!

Luo Lin held her head, her eyes turning into mosquito coils.

"Ugh, I feel so uncomfortable..."

Vill-V looked at the girl with a splitting headache, her mouth twitching, "Didn't anyone teach her not to use Quantum and Imaginary powers at the same time? Did she not go to school?"

Elysia pondered for a moment, raising her index finger, "Is there a possibility that she really didn't go to school?"

Luo Lin struggled to retort, "...Doesn't attending the Valkyrie Training School count as education? At least it's undergraduate level!"

Vill-V's face showed obvious pity, "Poor child without a doctorate..."

Luo Lin coughed twice, and then looked at Elysia.

Miss Pink Elf's gaze drifted, chuckling awkwardly, "Well, in the last era, some school gave me an honorary professorship out of face for Eden, so that should count as being a professor..."

Senti covered her chest. She felt like she had been wrongfully accused.

When Fu Hua was still in high school, she encountered the Honkai, then directly joined the Fire Moth, and fought against Honkai Beasts for tens of thousands of years.

Would this count as dropping out of high school...?

You old fossil, why are you so useless. Why didn't you go get a few doctorates while your brain was still good...
