Chapter 511

That mission almost killed her.

People who failed the super-variation surgery turned into terrifying monsters, almost killing her. Besides that, Sakura also saw the corpses of countless people who died because of surgery failure.

Even some "lucky ones" survived.

But the result was also being severely eroded by Honkai energy, with most of their bodies turning into Honkai Beasts... She felt that if they became like that, perhaps death would be easier.

And that incident also made Sakura subconsciously think that the situation here was about the same. Perhaps the success rate was higher, but the result of surgery failure was still death or erosion.

"Sakura, where did you hear such strange rumors? How can surgery failure kill people?"

"Really... won't die?"

"Anyway, I've never heard of surgery failure killing people. Look at that person over there. I remember she went for surgery a few days ago and didn't succeed, but she's still alive and well... She also said that although her surgery failed, some of her old illnesses disappeared."

Dystopia said enviously.

In fact, that was because when Bai Ge treated warriors whose surgery failed, he would casually cure their minor illnesses. After all, the Herrscher of Sentience could be said to be the most powerful divine doctor in the world.

"This, is different from what I know." Sakura said in shock.

"Oh my~ although I don't know where you heard the rumors, don't forget that our base has that Lord Bai Ge. No matter what happens, we don't need to worry, just follow that person and fight Honkai."

"............"

Sakura felt shocked but also fortunate. She thought that this mission had a 99% probability of dying on the operating table before assassinating Bai Ge.

But now it seemed she could live a little longer.

Thinking of this, Sakura couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. Compared to dying on the operating table or turning into an ugly monster, dying at the hands of a great hero might be more decent.

Although killing someone like her would probably dirty Bai Ge's hands, Sakura apologized to Bai Ge countless times in her heart.

Soon, the day of the super-variation surgery arrived.

In Mobius's lab, Sakura, Kosma, Dystopia, and other warriors gathered, everyone curiously and nervously looking at the place known as the demon's nest.

"Oh my~ there are two cute girls this time." Elysia said in surprise.

"Elysia, what are you joining in the fun for?" Mobius looked at her with disgust.

"Because Bai Ge said there are a few people he is more concerned about this time, so I came to see out of curiosity."

"Tsk, get out of here!"

Looking at the daily bickering between Elysia and Mobius, everyone didn't know how to react.

Bai Ge raised his hand and knocked on both of their heads, then clapped his hands to arrange for everyone to undergo the super-variation surgery. Today, he even invited Mei.

Now, the only people in the world who could perform super-variation surgery were Bai Ge, Mobius, and Mei.

"The Honkai Beast genes matched to you have been screened. Now, the super-variation surgery for lower-tier Honkai Beast genes is handled by Mei, and Mobius and I are responsible for the super-variation surgery for upper-tier Honkai Beast genes."

"Gulp!" xN

Looking at the nervous crowd, Bai Ge smiled slightly and gave them a reassurance pill.

"Rest assured, no matter if the result is success or failure, I guarantee you will never die or have sequelae, so don't be nervous. For you, it's just sleeping."

"Yes, Captain Bai Ge!" xN

After he finished speaking, everyone felt much more at ease.

This was also the result of Bai Ge's extremely high prestige. Because of emotions like trust, respect, and worship, many people believed what he said even without evidence.

In this batch of surgeries, only three people matched upper-tier Honkai Beast genes: Sakura, Kosma, and Dystopia.

"Sakura, you matched with the Emperor-class Honkai Beast—Yasha. Kosma, you matched with the Final-class Honkai Beast—Vishnu. And Dystopia, you matched with the Emperor-class—Akira."

Bai Ge projected the Honkai Beast illustrated books for the three, but Sakura and Dystopia didn't care about the Honkai Beasts they matched with, instead looking at Vishnu in unison.

"Final-class Honkai Beast... what is that?"

"I don't know, I've never said this level."

"Captain, what exactly is my Honkai Beast?"

As warriors fighting against Honkai, the three of them naturally knew the most basic Honkai Beast levels, but the concept of "Final-class" was heard for the first time, so they became curious.

"Final-class Honkai Beasts are Honkai Beasts classified as 【Undefined】. In terms of potential, they are even beyond Judgement-class Honkai Beasts."

"This, there is actually such a Honkai Beast?!"

"Hehe, for Honkai, nothing is impossible. Incidentally, the confirmed Final-class Honkai Beasts, besides Benares fused by Bai Ge and Elysia's Great Freedom Heaven, only this Vishnu remains."

Mobius added.

And in her snake eyes, a flash of fanaticism passed.

After learning about the characteristics of the Vishnu Honkai Beast from Bai Ge, Mobius really almost couldn't hold back and perform another super-variation surgery on herself.

"Vishnu is only a lower-tier Honkai Beast in the initial stage, but it can continuously evolve by devouring other Honkai Beasts. Although it was only Emperor-class when caught by Bai Ge, its potential is enough to surpass Judgement-class Honkai Beasts."

Mobius's tone was filled with a bit of envy. A Honkai Beast that continuously evolves by devouring—this was perfectly compatible with the "infinity" she pursued.

However, she was now numb to it.

Because when the snake almost couldn't hold back, Bai Ge stopped her in time and indicated that Vishnu was a Honkai Beast completely opposite to what she pursued.

Although it could evolve infinitely by devouring external objects, it had huge side effects. The Vishnu Honkai Beast could be said to be in a state of hunger at all times.

Fusion Warriors born from its genes would also easily fall into rampage, lose their sanity, and need to frequently devour other Honkai Beast factors to maintain their sanity, but over-devouring could also lead to mental collapse.

Hearing him say this, Mobius was immediately disappointed.

Mobius: (Just this? Disappointed. Only strength continuously expanding, but at the cost of losing rationality and other side effects—does this kind of flawed thing really deserve to be called evolution?)

In her eyes, evolution is continuously eliminating one's own shortcomings and approaching a more perfect life level. Although Vishnu can evolve infinitely by devouring, it can only be a beast in the end.

Although even so, it was already strong enough.

As long as the limit is controlled, Fusion Warriors born from its genes will inevitably have extremely strong strength and potential.

"How about it? I've told you all the pros and cons. Are you still willing to accept this super-variation surgery?"

"I am willing!"

Kosma agreed without hesitation.

It wasn't that he didn't understand the side effects Bai Ge just said, but at this moment, the only thought in this chuunibyou boy's heart was.

(... Cool!)

Looking at the appearance of Vishnu in the Honkai Beast illustrated book, Kosma's heart was moved hard. This Honkai Beast, which looked like a black evil dragon, looked just like a villain!

It couldn't be more in line with the aesthetics of a chuunibyou boy.

And...

(Final-class Honkai Beast, a Honkai Beast of the same level as the one fused by Captain Bai Ge. Am I too lucky? Could it be that after fusion, I can be as strong as the Captain? No, no, no, thinking like that is too overestimating myself, and I heard that the higher the level of the Honkai Beast, the lower the success probability... Pray for success, pray for success, pray for success!)

Kosma was praying for his surgery to be successful with his hands together, while hoping that the metaphysical means he saw on the internet would be useful.

On the other side, Sakura looked at the Honkai Beast she matched with—a pink fox with ears like a donkey. She really didn't expect that she could actually match with an upper-tier Honkai Beast.

Although as long as the surgery was successful, her mission success rate could be greatly improved, this couldn't make her happy at all.

Sakura: (... If it were a lower-tier Honkai Beast, it would be fine. At least that way I definitely wouldn't complete the mission... This feeling of only giving people a sliver of hope is sometimes even more uncomfortable.)

The helpless girl even prayed for her surgery to fail in her heart.

However, all three surgeries were completed smoothly.

When they woke up from the operating table, they all felt that their strength had undergone earth-shaking changes, much stronger than before the surgery.

"Sakura, what were you thinking about when you were undergoing surgery?"

Just as Sakura was immersed in her own strength, Bai Ge suddenly spoke to her, and even Mobius looked at her with strange eyes.

Immediately, Sakura's heart skipped a beat, thinking, could it be that while she was asleep, she talked in her sleep during the surgery and exposed her identity as an undercover assassin? That wouldn't be so outrageous, right?

"Ex, excuse me, what's wrong?"

She asked with a fluke, biting the bullet.

"You almost died just now."

"Eh?"

"Clearly the adaptation rate between the Yasha Honkai Beast and you was high, and the fusion was smooth, but... your performance was as if you were rejecting this fusion. This is the first time I've seen such a situation."

Bai Ge said with a subtle expression, hugging his arms.

Usually, it was the Honkai Beast genes rejecting humans, but Sakura's situation was the Yasha Honkai Beast craving fusion, while the "Forget-Me-Not" girl was rejecting fusion. This rejection almost caused the surgery to fail.

If it weren't for Bai Ge's medical authority being strong, forcing the surgery to be completed to the end, now Sakura would be a vegetable at best, or have gone to the underworld to report at worst.

"Sorry, I... don't know what happened." Sakura lowered her head to cover it up.

"Alright, it's normal for accidents to happen occasionally. But you owe me a life now." Bai Ge said.

"I owe you a life?"

Hearing him say this, Sakura's expression became strange. The girl showed a bitter smile.

She was actually saved by the target she was going to assassinate/send a head to. What kind of thing is this. ===== CHAPTER 512 =====
