"W-who are you?"
Mrs. Alexei asked nervously, not daring to leave with Salome rashly.
Salome glanced sideways at Madame Alexei, but did not answer immediately, as if listening to something.
Then, she leaned close to Mrs. Alexei's ear and whispered, "Madam, you wouldn't want anything to happen to our daughter, would you?"
"..."
Mrs. Alexei bit her lip lightly, then nodded as if resigned to her fate and said, "I'll go with you... please don't hurt my daughter."
Salome nodded slightly, then tossed the fist-sized purple crystal to Cocolia.
“Crushing this crystal will teleport you to the vicinity of the Valkyrie forces. Just wait in place for a moment, and a Valkyrie will find you.”
Salome offered an explanation, and then led Madame Alexei into a purple void that had appeared out of nowhere.
Mrs. Alexei hesitated for a second or two before nervously and uneasily stepping into the purple void.
As the two women entered the purple void, it closed instantly, as if it had never existed.
Cocolia stared blankly at the spot where the purple void had been before, then crushed the purple crystal.
The purple crystals appear very hard, but in reality, they can be crushed with just a little force.
Click!
The purple crystal suddenly shattered, and then a purple void spread outwards from the shattered crystal until it completely engulfed Cocolia.
A few seconds later, the purple hole disappeared, leaving the vehicle parked in place.
Cocolia felt a strong wave of dizziness wash over her, causing a wave of nausea that nearly made her gag.
Fortunately, she managed to suppress the nausea.
"If I just wait here for a while, I will be saved..."
Cocolia murmured softly, hesitated for a long time, and finally chose to head south.
However, before she could walk for long, a white-haired woman suddenly appeared in front of her, descending from the sky.
Seeing the white-haired woman holding a lance that was as tall as a person, Cocolia silently raised her pistol and aimed it at the white-haired woman.
The white-haired woman ignored this and gently touched the prismatic crystal earrings by her ears.
"This is Cecilia. I have found a survivor near the military base. Please arrange for a D-rank Valkyrie to drive to the rescue."
"You...who exactly are you...?"
"Don't worry, you are safe now."
Cecilia smiled and then stood next to Cocolia to prevent the Honkai Beasts roaming nearby from attacking her.
Chapter Thirty-One: Oh no! The big boss is actually myself!
Tower of Babel.
Salome emerged from the purple void, followed by a nervous and uneasy Mrs. Alexei.
When she noticed the sudden change in her surroundings, Mrs. Alexei felt a growing sense of tension and unease that quickly overwhelmed her.
"Madam, are you alright?"
"No, it's okay..."
Mrs. Alexei looked at Qiu Bi nervously and involuntarily took a step back.
Seeing this, Qiu Bi was somewhat troubled, then softened his voice: "Madam, please don't worry—it's safe here, you won't be harmed."
Mrs. Alexei bit her lip lightly, then tentatively asked, "May I ask, my daughter..."
"Madam, your daughter is fine for now. We'll go pick her up together once we've finished dealing with things here."
"Let's go pick up my daughter together? But..."
"Madam, your husband has passed away, and raising your daughter alone is extremely difficult, after all..."
Qiu Bi slowly approached Mrs. Alexei, whispered in her ear, "You wouldn't want your daughter to go hungry and naked in the future, would you?"
"This……"
Mrs. Alexei was caught in a dilemma.
About half a minute later, she seemed to realize the reality that her husband was dead, and her expression became slightly dejected.
“I understand… Please give me some time, I need to handle my husband’s funeral arrangements.”
"Of course, no problem. If you need anything, just let me know."
Qiu Bi immediately gave a friendly smile, then gently brushed aside Mrs. Alexei's hair and inhaled her fragrance.
Compared to Celine's mother, Mrs. Alexei had a pleasant body odor and possessed a unique mature charm.
However, what Qiu Bi was most concerned about was not Mrs. Alexei's body fragrance, but the "contract" that had just been signed.
The contract grants you eternal youth!
The contract grants—immortality!
The contract grants—a perfect fit for Honkai energy!
Contract grants—an increase in power (at the average level of an ordinary person)!
Contract grants—an increase in agility (at the average level for ordinary people)!
Contract grants—an increase in stamina (average level for ordinary people)!
The contract grants you—good fortune in times of trouble!
These seven abilities transformed into seven warm currents, flowing through her limbs and bones, ultimately striking Madame Alexei's heart with domineering force and brutality.
In an instant, Mrs. Alexei experienced a strange feeling she had never felt before, and even lost control of her body, causing two alluring blushes to rise on her cheeks as she softly slumped into Qiu Bi's arms.
"Madam, what's wrong?"
"I...I'm fine...I don't even know your name yet."
"Ah... I'm sorry, that was my oversight."
Qiu Bi held Mrs. Alexei in his arms, enjoying the feeling of her soft body, and then introduced himself: "My name is Qiu Bi. I can grant others abilities. I have just granted you a series of abilities such as 'eternal youth' and 'immortality'. I look forward to your guidance in the future."
“Alexandra, that is my name.”
Alexandra hesitated for a second, then slowly hugged Qiu Bi, unaware that a slight smile had already appeared on the corners of her mouth.
—That is an emotion called "peace of mind" and "contentment".
I'm sorry, Alexei... I may not be able to go back to the past...
Alexandra apologized in her heart to dispel the guilt in her heart.
Qiu Bi did not plant the "Commandment" in Alexandra, but successfully won her over by relying on the effect of the "Contract".
At this moment, Alexandra had just experienced the pain of losing her husband, and was subsequently threatened by Cocolia with a gun and attacked by Honkai Beasts. She was already feeling uneasy and afraid.
By giving Alexandra a strong sense of security, Qiu Bi can easily enter her heart and gradually replace the image of "Alexei".
This process would normally be very slow, but the side effects of the contract granting the ability undoubtedly accelerated the process greatly, allowing Qiu Bi to replace "Alexei" in just one minute.
It only took Alexandra about a minute to go from being forced to snuggle up to Qiu Bi to now snuggling up to him willingly.
In this situation, Qiu Bi suddenly realized something very serious—he seemed to have become the villain?
broken!
The big boss was actually myself!
Despite his feelings, Qiu Bi felt no panic or unease.
With a total of 65 chances to be resurrected, and possessing both the Herrscher of Wind and the Herrscher of Flame cores, there is currently no one who can completely kill Qiu Bi.
Neither Cecilia nor Fu Hua can kill Qiu Bi at most once, after which Qiu Bi can escape.
After all, Qiu Bi currently possesses the power of a Herrscher but lacks the corresponding physical attributes, making it difficult for him to directly confront S-class Valkyries and top-tier Fusion Warriors.
If Qiu Bi is allowed to attack first, the final outcome is still unknown.
“Alexandra, shall I take you to rest first? There are many rooms for resting inside the Tower of Babylon. You can rest assured that you will not encounter any more danger.”
A series of battles are likely to break out later, and leaving Alexandra at the top of the Tower of Babylon could very well result in her tragic death in the aftermath of the fighting.
Alexandra was unsure what would happen next, but she did not resist Qiu Bi's arrangements and obediently nodded.
Then, Qiu Bi took Alexandra's delicate hand and led her into the elevator to the rest area of the Tower of Babylon.
Xilin didn't say a word to disturb Qiu Bi from beginning to end, but just pouted as if she was being petulant, almost as if "I'm unhappy" was written all over her face.
“Cirin, don’t be angry.” Salome stood next to Sirin and reached out to press Sirin’s hair. “He’s finding you a ‘second mother’.”
Upon hearing this, Xilin's attention was instantly drawn.
"Sister Salome, can Mom have a second one?"
"Don't you have a 'dad' again now?"
Salome smiled and asked Sirin a question that immediately put Sirin in a difficult position.
Celine thought Salome's words made a lot of sense, but she also felt something was off.
Before long, the childlike mindset and short attention span led Celine to give up on investigating the matter, and she let out a joyful and happy laugh.
"Yay! Celine is going to have a second mom!"
Celine did not hide the news and immediately shared it with the girls stationed at the four directions of the Tower of Babylon.
Upon learning of this, Aurora, Agatha, and Galina cheered with joy, genuinely happy.
Bella, however, remained silent.
Celine noticed Bella's unusual behavior and couldn't help but ask, "Bella, why aren't you saying anything?"
Chapter Thirty-Two: Bella Wants to Be Sirin's Mother
Although Sirin didn't say it directly, she cared a lot about Bella, Aurora, Agatha, and Galina, and almost treated the four girls as her "younger sisters."
