Chapter 729

"Something's wrong, very wrong!"

Inside the Elysian Realm, Mobius sat on her floating device, holding a stack of Bai Mou's doujinshi, and those dangerous yet beautiful snake eyes narrowed slightly.

She had been wandering around the Realm for a long time and found that she hadn't seen a single person except Elysia.

"Could it be that they went for a team-building activity? No, that's not right. If it were team-building, it's impossible to leave out that pink fatty. And the others are one thing, but even Mei isn't here."

Mobius knew very well that Mei and she were actually quite homebody-like, basically never stepping out of their laboratories, let alone leaving the Elysian Realm.

After all, the reason ordinary people go out is boredom, but as mad scientists, they have countless topics.

Such as research on the Imaginary Tree and the Sea of Quanta.

Although the research on the Imaginary Tree was originally to resurrect Bai Ge, for that tree of existence representing "everything," the three mad scientists Mobius, Mei, and Vill-V were also getting more and more interested the more they researched.

You must know that the Thousand-World-One-Ride was still in the hands of World Serpent until two years ago. They could observe it however they wanted.

If it weren't for the lack of an opportunity.

These three might have already tried to rush the tree.

And since they are researching the Imaginary Tree, they naturally have to research its nemesis, the Sea of Quanta, as well.

In short, others might go out for a stroll because they have nothing to do, but this mad scientist trio absolutely wouldn't... although Vill-V would occasionally go outside to perform magic tricks.

However, at this moment, only Mobius and Elysia were left in the entire Elysian Realm. The person who likes excitement the most is staying in the Realm, but the others have disappeared without a trace.

Snake: "There must be a big problem here!"

However, since these people were rarely all gone, this cunning snake started a looting operation.

Snake infiltrated the memory fields of other Flame-Chasers and looted the doujinshi of Bai Mou that they treasured.

The doujinshi of Bai Mou drawn by the famous painter of the Elysian Realm, Star-Griseo, were hard currency among the Elysian Realm—no, it should be said, among the female Flame-Chasers.

Usually, everyone would trade, borrow, and share with each other, but no one stipulated that there was only one way to trade.

Although the method was a bit... but... this is the doujinshi of our own Savior! Very worth it!

Pardo likes this zero-cost, high-return method the most. As for the risks... for this lucky cat, she can always avoid them luckily.

Even a certain pink fairy likes to do this.

However, Elysia's method is more flashy.

She would scout the location in advance, send a notice letter, and finally put on a gorgeous phantom thief costume, put on a pink monocle that couldn't cover her face at all, and then start stealing.

Mobius had also been sent a notice letter before.

As a result...

Elysia: "Phantom Thief Miss makes a sparkling appearance! Eh eh eh——!"

The moment this pink phantom thief stepped into Mobius's laboratory, she was tied up by traps set in advance and hung from the ceiling, swinging back and forth.

Mobius: "Truly a meaningless act. From your touching theft success rate, it can be seen that Elysia, you should learn more from Pardo."

Elysia: "No no no~ Dr. Mobius, you don't understand. Phantom thief is a kind of performance art. Stealing after sending a notice letter is equivalent to an exciting duel with the owner of the item. That's interesting~ Besides, I haven't lost yet."

Mobius: "Heh~ stubborn."

Elysia: "I just don't want to be told that by you."

At that time, Elysia still successfully obtained the doujinshi collection held by Mobius because this pink phantom thief completely gave up on "sneaking" and chose to go "unrivaled."

She blocked snakes and killed snakes, and finally left gracefully with the Bai Ge doujinshi that Snake treasured under Mobius's humiliating gaze.

At that time, it almost angered her to death.

She directly cursed, "This doesn't count as a phantom thief at all, Elysia, you are clearly a robber!"

Elysia: "Hmph hmph~ Not at all. For example, as Bai Bai once said, as long as it's single-shot and kills in one second, even a cannon can count as a sniper. I sent a notice letter and wore a monocle, so it definitely counts as a phantom thief~"

Mobius: "%¥#@¥……*!"

……………………

The beautiful memories of the past end here.

Snake hesitated for a while, then wrote a notice letter on a few pieces of paper and threw it into the empty memory field.

It can only be said that people always grow into the appearance they hate.

"I sent a notice letter. As for whether you saw the notice letter I sent, that's none of my business. In this way, I count as a phantom thief, right? And don't say~ the guilt has been reduced a lot, although I didn't care to begin with~"

Mobius looked at the harvest of doujinshi in her arms, appreciated them excitedly with a flushed face for a while, and decided to go to Vill-V's memory field again later to steal a sturdier safe to hide them.

"Alright, the treasure is in hand. Now I should find out where those guys ran off to."

If it were usual, Snake wouldn't care, unless the others encountered life-threatening crises, she would help rescue them while appearing calm but actually being anxious.

But for a disappearance event like this, Mobius indicated she was too lazy to care.

But who made Griseo one of the missing personnel.

And her intuition told her that there was a big problem here!

However, there are no surveillance cameras in the Elysian Realm.

After all, there is no possibility of this place being invaded, unless someone brings the Herrscher of Corruption in from the outside.

But Mobius had already thought of the best method.

…………A few minutes later…………

"Wuwuwu! Dr. Mobius, how could you do this? Hurry up and return this [Elysian Realm Information Database Digitized Collection Console Interactive Output...] Uh, this fairy typewriter to me!"

An armed doll, Fairy Elysia, shouted aggrievedly.

Although she tried very hard to take back the Realm typewriter, as an opponent to this World-Eating Snake, this poor fairy with no combat ability could do nothing.

"Just borrowing it for a bit, and didn't I just send you a notice letter?"

"You hit me with a typewriter on the spot to print one! What kind of phantom thief is that! Not professional at all!" the armed doll Fairy Elysia complained.

"Nonsense, I was never a phantom thief to begin with. I'm just an evil and dangerous poisonous snake," Mobius said proudly, holding her head high.

"Wow, this person actually said it out loud," Fairy Elysia retreated.

"Hmph, anyway, I'll borrow this typewriter. I won't take it away."

In the end, Mobius didn't take the typewriter away, but started operating it right in the archives.

This made Fairy Elysia breathe a sigh of relief. After all, her duty is the administrator of the archives, and even more so the guardian of this typewriter.

If Mobius really took the typewriter away, Fairy Elysia indicated she would be very troubled.

"Speaking of which, I've never touched this thing before. Since it's Vill-V's invention, it shouldn't disappoint."

It is well known that the Elysian Realm has a magical typewriter that can objectively record everything that has happened in the Realm. There is no better tool for investigation than this.

Mobius hadn't used it before. She tried it a few times and found it quite interesting, and at the same time thought, "No wonder Elysia always knows where I hide things."

However, convenient tools always have inconvenient aspects.

Because there is too much data accumulated in the Realm, if the question is too general, the typewriter cannot find one or several files from the database to summarize.

"Question: What did the Flame-Chasers other than Mobius and Elysia go out to do?"

The typewriter didn't work.

"Fine, since that's the case... When was the last time the Flame-Chasers other than Mobius and Elysia left the Realm?"

Click click click...

The detailed question got a clear answer.

Mobius picked up the paper with the answer and looked at it, then raised her eyebrows. It recorded the date everyone left.

Fu Hua, as the watcher, left a long time ago and couldn't be used as a reference, but the dates the others left made the suspicion in Mobius's heart increase by a few points.

"Except for Hua, the first to leave were Eden and Aponia, then Sakura, Mei, Griseo, Vill-V, and then the most recent was Pardo..."

The entry and exit records of Kevin and the others were ignored by Mobius, and at this moment, this snake had already realized something.

"They all didn't come back after going out. What is attracting these guys outside? Wait, could it be!"

If there is anything in the current era that can attract this group of female Flame-Chasers and make them go and not return, Mobius's brain can only think of that white figure!

Her whole body was trembling, and she hurriedly asked the typewriter. ....

"What did these people go out for the last time!"

Click click click click...

The typewriter started to work.

The next second, countless papers flew out. Except for Sakura and Pardo, who met Bai Mou by chance after going out, so the content was different, the reason for the others was only one.

Mobius trembled all over, looking at the papers filled with the name [Bai Ge] scattered all over the archives, and the whole person felt bad.

By now, she had already realized.

These people actually all snuck off!

While she was still squatting in the lab doing research, they had probably already gone out to play with Bai Ge!

Snake: "These disloyal women! It's one thing to hide it from Elysia, but they even hid it from me!!"

(The girls: Hehe~)

At the same time, because it printed too much at once, this fairy typewriter also malfunctioned, and with a series of jamming sounds, it exploded into a pile of parts with a "Boom."

Fairy Elysia: "My, my typewriter!!"

Mobius: "These bad women, I'm going to break up with you! One day I must finish you all off!"

After saying that, Mobius left the Eternal Elysian Realm angrily. She felt that now in the entire Realm, maybe only she and Elysia didn't know about Bai Ge.

I'm afraid even Kevin and those boys know, right?

That is to say, she is the second to last.

Mobius: "Hu~ hu~ Think about it from another angle, at least I'm better than that pink fatty! I can know before Elysia, which counts as winning!"

It can only be said that it is worthy of being Snake. Even if there is no one else, she is still stubborn. She is worthy of being the sick-tsundere representative among the Flame-Chasers.

She looked back at the direction of the Eternal Elysian Realm, thinking that the destruction of the fairy typewriter just now was a big help.

At least this way, Elysia wouldn't be able to find the answer using the same method as her.

When the time comes, let Klein go and seal that Fairy Elysia's mouth, and there should be no problem.

However, at this moment.

"Burp~ That newly opened ramen shop just now was really good, it's just a pity the noodles weren't chewy enough, I'll give it a 70."

A husky that had just returned from slurping noodles outside was walking leisurely in the Realm. However, Kevin looked at this cold and clear Elysian Realm and couldn't help but sigh.

"Busy, busy is good~ Those women should still be fighting over Bai Ge now. Su found a job as a doctor, Kosma doesn't know where he ran off to, and Kalpas, tsk tsk tsk..."

Since Bai Ge has returned from traveling through the Previous Era, they don't need to hide anymore. While the women are busy with love wars, the boys are also playing their own games.

Kevin's mind floated to a certain irritable brother. Among their boys' group, Kalpas had the most exciting life in the current era.

First, he went to participate in a boxing match, and almost finished off his opponent with one punch. Then he worked as a chef in a restaurant for a while. When he ran out of money, he went to be a model and shot a set of fashion jeans collection photos.

Kevin compared himself and only felt that the life he lived was truly plain and simple... Every day was just looking for newly opened ramen shops and searching for new noodles to slurp.

No way, he was hungry for too long in the Sea of Quanta back then.

However, just as Kevin was considering whether he should just be a ramen blogger.

A green figure that made one instinctively terrified suddenly appeared in front of this white-haired husky.
