Meanwhile, returning home, MEI's mood remained extremely complex.
Walking into the bedroom and closing the door, she slowly sat down against it, hugging her legs tightly with both hands.
As a young maiden, how could she not have fantasized about her future partner?
But she never expected that she would encounter such a situation... Do I actually have to share a partner with someone else?
If it were the past, she would never have accepted this!
But facing the current situation, she couldn't think of a better way.
Of course, if she insisted on contacting Mobius, she wasn't completely without options.
Whether spreading massive amounts of information about the Honkai Domain online or directly contacting a TV station, even if the news was eventually suppressed, as long as she attracted the attention of Fire Moth, Mobius would naturally contact her.
But even if she did that, it still wouldn't solve the fact that she needed to be with Leo.
After all, considering Leo's uniqueness, Leo would inevitably have to form a [Bond] with her.
And since the current Leo hadn't grown to the point where he could contend with the higher-ups of Fire Moth, exposing Leo this early would only lead the situation to the worst possible outcome.
—The higher-ups of Fire Moth would definitely try to control them!
Therefore... it was better to let him develop for a while longer.
So unless the Honkai Domain was about to descend and Leo still couldn't handle it, she wouldn't resort to this bad plan of summoning Mobius.
But in the final analysis—
"Sure enough, there is only this one path of being with him..."
Uttering a voice that sounded like self-hypnosis to convince herself, she raised her head slightly, and a very obvious shyness appeared on her blushing, beautiful cheeks.
And since she had firmed up her future path, she couldn't help but start planning for herself.
Although the only one she had to face right now was Raiden Mei, a silly girl not worth worrying about, she would face many more enemies in the future.
Only at this moment could she seize the initiative!
Of course, with her personality, she couldn't lower her posture too much, so... she could only rely on her.
Taking out her phone and opening the calendar, her gaze locked onto the upcoming weekend, and a gleam filled with wisdom rose in her eyes.
The only thing she could rejoice over was that she still had time, and there weren't that many competitors.
Therefore, she still had the chance to advance step by step, without worrying about being cut in line despite knowing Leo the earliest!
However... I was still cut in line, right?
Although she had tried her best to control herself not to think about what Leo and Raiden Mei would do after she left, humans are just like that: the more one doesn't want to think about something, the more one's brain can't control thinking about it.
Especially since Raiden Mei wore a beautiful face exactly like hers; it was hard not to think about it.
For a moment, a strange train of thought rose in her heart.
Unknowingly, she realized she was diving towards the abyss, and she was helpless about it.
—Really... it's all that guy's fault; I've become weird too!
After pushing all the blame onto Leo's head, she enjoyed it with a clear conscience.
However, after the fact, when sage-like rationality returned to her brain, she couldn't help but think about a sharper question... If it's already like this now, won't I just take off directly in the future?
And when this thought arose, she understood that she had been completely changed by that man.
But recalling the scene of Leo disregarding his own safety to break the purple thunder wings behind her with his bare hands, she could only silently accept it.
Just consider it... repaying kindness.
Beautiful light flowed in her beautiful purple eyes, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously curled up into a smile filled with aftertaste; perhaps even she herself didn't realize this.
...
[Instance: Chiba Academy · 3rd Floor]
After twelve o'clock, Leo returned to this terrifying school building.
Although he could [Log Out] on the spot anytime as long as he was out of combat, every time he [Logged In], he could only appear at the place with the Teleport Anchor.
Looking around, he found that there was still no sign of Lord Guard Zombie. For a moment, he couldn't help but feel a bit lost.
Sure enough... I probably won't forget you in this lifetime.
Shaking his head, he threw these subtle thoughts out of his mind. Raising his long sword, he walked towards the second floor with a ferocious smile.
—Leo descends from the sky, angry and ferocious, start farming!
In just a few minutes, he slaughtered all the Zombies in the five classrooms on the second floor, turning them from cold Zombies into warm Imaginary Energy.
[Imaginary Energy +307]
Now, with his mental state in good shape, it was time to go downstairs.
"Let me see what kind of bullshit enemy I'll encounter this time!"
Having found some confidence from the Zombies, although he wasn't arrogant to the point of swelling up, he indeed wanted to find a well-matched opponent for a fight.
And this was also the reason he missed Lord Guard Zombie.
With high morale for battle, he walked to the first floor.
It seemed that to prevent the Zombies outside the school building from discovering the situation inside, the glass windows and main doors on this floor were sealed with wooden boards unlike the previous two floors. Therefore, it was terribly dark, with only a few strands of moonlight leaking in, making it impossible to see the scene on this floor clearly.
For a moment, Leo had a bad feeling.
—This environment is too prone to breeding bullshit enemies!
Moreover, being just an ordinary person right now, he couldn't fight in such a dark environment.
Injecting a trace of Honkai energy into the long sword, he used the faint purple thunder for lighting.
Good news: the classrooms were full of Zombies just like the second floor, only the number had doubled or tripled.
Bad news: he didn't see a single enemy in the corridor.
—Where could they be?
His gaze locked onto the corridor; he didn't believe there were no enemies on this floor!
According to Xiao Gao's routine, the more harmless a place looks, the more likely it is to arrange a big pile of shit for you.
Only he observed carefully for a while, but found absolutely no trace of any enemy.
"So... they are in the classrooms?"
Uttering a soft murmur, he cast his gaze towards the nearest classroom.
At this moment, the Zombies in the classroom had already detected his presence and were slowly moving towards the doors and windows.
—Forget it, let's farm souls first!
Seeing this, he also understood that he couldn't keep stalling like this. Even if the enemy was really in the Zombie pile, he couldn't ignore so many souls and leave.
Therefore, he pushed open the classroom door.
Just as he was preparing to walk in and start a massacre, he suddenly felt his chest cavity being opened by something.
Lowering his head, he only had time to see a pair of sharp claws piercing his chest, and then his upper body was torn into pieces by a burst of monstrous strength!
—[Open Hearted]
