Chapter 754

~8 min read 1,573 words

"Haha, indeed. But what's important now is, Prometheus, do you feel like you had fun today?"

"…I don't know."

Prometheus shook her head in confusion.

For an artificial intelligence.

Trying to understand feelings is trying to break through her own boundaries as a machine and move toward the direction of being human.

At this moment, the seed of humanity in her "heart" was still in the process of slowly sprouting; she still needed time.

"I see. That's alright, just take it slow. When you find something you like and something you are passionate about one day, Prometheus, that sleeping heart of yours will awaken."

"I'll remember that, Bai Ge. However… before that, do you remember that you still owe me one thing?"

"Uh…"

"The concert. Bai Ge, you promised me 137 hours, 31 minutes, and 46 seconds ago that you would sing for me after you finished the Chimera experiment. Do you remember this?"

Prometheus put her hands on her hips, her red eyes seeming to become a bit sharper. This appearance of the mechanical girl was simply like a little rich creditor coming to collect a debt.

Bai Ge's expression became awkward instantly.

He remembered; of course he remembered.

But in the time since he became a Chimera, there had been too many inexplicable things. By the time he finally had some free time, it turned out it was Prometheus's turn to be busy.

And after five days passed, Bai Ge started worrying about when the Herrscher of Binding would appear, so he hurriedly brought everyone here for a team-building trip. The result was that he still hadn't fulfilled his promise.

Although there were extenuating circumstances, the fact remained that he still hadn't fulfilled his agreement with the mechanical girl.

"Sorry, it's my fault. Can you give me a little more time, Prometheus? I will definitely…"

Before Bai Ge could finish, the mechanical girl's slender finger pressed against his lips.

"Alright, I know this isn't Bai Ge's fault. During this time, we've had bad luck, our free time was always mismatched, and there wasn't a suitable opportunity. So please rest assured, your credit score with me is still perfect, Bai Ge."

"After all, having all your data, I know very well that you are a person who values promises, Bai Ge."

At this moment, Prometheus revealed the most human-like smile she had ever shown, leaving Bai Ge stunned.

"And I also need a little time to search."

"Search for what?"

"A stage… Since you are willing to sing for me, then of course I must find a stage suitable for you. The minimum standard is that it must not be inferior to the stage you and Eden had during the 7th Honkai."

Prometheus said with a serious "Banya" face.

This mechanical girl was also stubborn. Since Bai Ge was willing to sing for her, she had to prepare the best stage.

Prometheus would never let Bai Ge sing in a cramped, shabby place, because she was certain that his singing voice contained something incomparably important to her.

And since it was an important thing, it had to be treated well.

"Not inferior to the stage when I was with Eden? That difficulty is not low. It also depends on luck and timing."

Bai Ge was between laughter and tears.

But he couldn't help but look forward to it.

After all, to be honest, Bai Ge did miss that grand stage that attracted everyone's attention. So he thought to himself that after solving the upcoming Herrscher of Binding, he would go ask Eden if she had any ideas.

Prometheus: "There definitely will be one."

……………………

After that, the two continued to chat about this and that. Bai Ge listened to Prometheus's AI-style answers and found it very interesting, also discovering that this girl was quite good at roasting people.

However, just at this moment.

"Bai Bai, I finally found you! Come quickly, Pardo is about to not make it!"

Elysia suddenly ran over, panting, and said words that gave Bai Ge a fright.

"What? What happened to Pardo?!"

"I can't explain it here, just come and see!"

"Okay!"

Bai Ge became tense instantly. His cute cat was jumping around during the day and even ate four or five grilled fish at noon; how could she suddenly be dying now? Who did this?!

In his anxiety, Bai Ge directly opened a space gate and arrived in the hotel room where Pardo was.

He saw Pardo lying on the bed with a weak expression.

The girl's slender body was trembling. Upon seeing Bai Ge arrive, tears instantly overflowed from her eyes. Standing nearby were Mobius, Mei, and the other Flame-Chasers with subtle expressions.

"That makes no sense. How is this possible?"

"To think such a thing would happen? This is too strange."

Hearing the shock of these two, who could be called the strongest scientists of the previous civilization, Bai Ge's heart skipped a beat.

He wondered what on earth happened to Pardo? To actually make Snake and Mei show such ghost-seeing expressions?

"Pardo, what's wrong with you, Pardo?!"

Bai Ge quickly walked to the cat's bedside, worriedly lifting her body, while already prepared to use the power of the Herrscher of Rebirth, even taking out the Abyss Flower.

And Pardo struggled to hold his hand.

Her eyes still held deep fear and anxiety.

"Boss Bai Ge… I… I don't want to die…"

"!!!"

These words almost scared Bai Ge's soul out of his body. The Elysian Realm plot from his past life surfaced in his mind. He immediately hugged the cat tightly with both hands and shouted seriously and anxiously.

"You won't! I won't let you die, Pardo! Hold on, Pardo! You must hold on! I'll save you right now! Abyss Flower, Zero Rated Power, Orchid of the Holy Spear…"

"Eh, wait, wait, wait! It's not that serious, Boss Bai Ge, it's really not that serious. I haven't reached that point yet. Please calm down. I'm sorry, I was being too dramatic!"

Watching Bai Ge use the Abyss Flower without hesitation—the Zero Rated Power 【Orchid of the Holy Spear】 that could repair lifeforms at the genetic level and bring the dying back to life.

· ·······Begging for flowers····· ·

Pardo immediately sat up from her deathbed, indicating that she actually hadn't reached the point of needing such major treatment.

"???"

Bai Ge looked at Pardo, who had suddenly come back to life, in a daze, with many question marks appearing above his head. He turned his head in confusion to look at the others in the room who had also been startled by him.

The meaning on his face was very clear.

Bai Ge: (What on earth is going on?)

Snake: "Making a fuss over nothing. This cat you raised just suddenly got sick; it's just a small flu."

Pardo: "Sister Snake, the flu is very uncomfortable…"

The atmosphere became a bit quiet and awkward at this moment.

"…………"

Bai Ge was silent for a while before letting go of Pardo, but he still used the power of the Herrscher of Rebirth to check this cat inside and out.

The result was that she really just had a small flu.

"So, Pardo, you just said you didn't want to die because you were uncomfortable from the flu? A dramatic rhetorical device?"

Bai Ge revealed a dangerous smile.

He rubbed his hands together, looking at this cat who had almost scared him to death, his mind already considering methods of punishment.

Bai Ge really had Elysian Realm PTSD just now! Pardo, do you know how much damage that line of yours does to a Captain who has cleared the Elysian Realm plot? Damn it!!

At this moment, even Elysia shrank back.

Then the pink fairy ran out the door, trembling all over.

(It's over, it's over! Bai Bai is actually angry! Bai Bai, the one person in this world who absolutely cannot be provoked, is angry! It's over, there's no saving it! The world is about to end! I, Miss Fairy, must immediately build a rocket and escape Earth!!)

Elysia had once been "fortunate" enough to see Bai Ge angry once. She would never forget what a terrifying sight that was for the rest of her life. Herrschers and Honkai and such were completely not worth mentioning in comparison!

Elysia would rather fight all the Herrschers that had appeared so far again than face Bai Ge in his true angry state! At this moment, this pink fairy had already become a sieve.

"It's not like that, Boss Bai Ge, listen to my explanation!"

Pardo instinctively sensed a threat more terrifying than death. She immediately knelt on the bed, hugged Bai Ge's thigh, trembling and teary-eyed, pointing at Mobius.

"I said I didn't want to die because Sister Snake wanted to dissect me. I didn't expect you to react so strongly, Boss Bai Ge. Wuwuwu, I'm sorry, I was wrong. I'll never steal your things again, Sister Elysia, save… Sister Elysia?!"

Pardo just wanted to count on the "Anti-Bai Ge Special" Miss Pink Fairy to help her say a few words of intercession, but only then did she discover that Elysia had already run off without a trace.

"Pardo."

"Yes! Yes! Boss Bai Ge, I…"

"Shut up."

*Slap! *

Pardo immediately slapped her own mouth, pressing it tightly as if she were trying to suffocate herself.

Then Bai Ge's gaze looked behind him. ===== CHAPTER 755 =====
