[Task completed: Supply card *1! ]
The next day, the notification sound that come from the system woke Loki up from his sleep, with a yawn, the young man rose from his couch to take a closer look at the message, and with a ] sigh, he let out a happy smile.
'Hey, it's been really hard, this supply card is really troublesome to get!'
Two months after he came to this world, Loki was able to trigger some quests occasionally, but with the original five supplies card that he got from the first mission months ago, in total, Loki only had eight supply cards.
The current stigmata on his body is the lower part of the four-star Tesla and the upper part of Aslaug. The effect of Tesla Stigmata is to get the power to manipulate electricity to some level and increase the strength of lightning, by using this alone, Loki estimated that his combat power is on part with a B rank valkyrie from the next era.
Since this is the previous era, this kind of combat power is enough, so the matter relating to his self-defense can be postponed until later.
Of course, it's only safe if the one he is fighting is just a human, but if it's a Honkai, especially the ones at the rank of Emperor or above, his only bet to survive is to flee on sight.
Due to that, Loki decided to hold the card and wait till it reach 10, so that he can do a ten consecutive draws.
After finishing checking up on the quest reward, Loki's head began to turn left and right.
"By the way, where's that girl? Is she still asleep?"
After looking around him, He decided to go check her up in the room he put her in, when he arrived, the door to the room has been opened, and seeing that, Loki decided to directly walked inside.
"Yep, looks like she has been long gone."
Looking at the empty but tidied-up bed, Loki made a guess that the green-haired girl should have left a few hours ago, since the other party has enough energy to tidy up the bed, then it probably meant her body is still in quite a great shape.
"Hm?"
Back in the living room, Loki noticed that there was a plate full of meals on the table with a piece of paper placed under it.
After picking up the paper, he glanced at the words on it [Thank you for what happened last night, but don't let it leak out, by the way, you don't have to worry about not finding me, because... we are going to meet again, whether you like it or not, so see you soon. ]
"..."
Loki silently crumpled the note into a ball and threw it into the trash can. See you soon? just forget it, if it weren't for the mission reward this time, he wouldn't even want to step into the gang alleyway last night.
Moreover, there should be no chance to see each other again in the future. After all, after the eruption of Nagazora City, the chance of survival of its residents is at most 1 in 100.000.
"Full name Julian Loki, most pedestrians around him call him Loki, one of the survivors of the eruption that happen at H City two months ago, is said to be a former citizen of Tianqiong City, from Shenzhou, the birthplace of his mother, he lives there till a few years ago and came to Nagazora City two years ago, and is currently a third-year student in the high school of Chiba academy. Two months ago while doing sightseeing in H city, he got involved in the Honkai eruption and was brought back to Nagazora by the M.O.T.H troop."
After finishing reading the information on the tablet, the short green-haired girl looked up at the frowning Mobius in front of her and asked. "Doctor, Why do you suddenly want to check this person's information? Judging from the information, it seems he's just an ordinary person."
"Hehe, an ordinary person eh?"
Mobius laughed and asked, "Klein, do you think that an ordinary person is someone who can control lightning and use it to knock a C rank assassin into the air and paralyze them?"
"Huh?"
Klein was shocked, she then took a glance at the information tablet in her hand, and asked, "Doctor, are you perhaps trying to say..."
"Well, that's right, Klein."
Mobius nodded and said with a smile, "When I was hanging out last night, I met that guys by chance, don't you think... this kind of power felt oddly very familiar. Right? And furthermore, from what you've told me, just two months ago, he was in City H..."
"Well... what does the doctor mean?"
Klein looked up at the other party, and suddenly had an ominous premonition. Generally, the person that gained the doctor interest always ended up as . . . .
"It's very simple, isn't he about to graduate? Anyway, he doesn't have any school right now, so... how about we recruit him into our laboratory first?"
Mobius looked at Klein with a half-smile and explained.
"Doctor, if you want a test subject, we already have plenty of volunterr alre- eh? Doctor, what did you say?"
Klein just wanted to persuade Mobius to be kind, but it seemed like... Did she hear it wrong?
Mobius said with a smile, "I said, I liked him, so how about lend a helping hand to him and make him work in our lab?"
"Well... I'l do what the doctor says."
Klein didn't say anything about it, she has no further opinion about Mobius decision, after all, she also feels that their laboratory is a bit lacking in personel. Although there are already two interns, Nuwa and Fuxi, but... those two are not reliable at all. Although, Klein does not think that Mobius can succeed in recruiting the boy.
After all, Doctor Mobius is quite notorious in the field of science, and it is too much to have normal people step inside their laboratory, let alone working alongside Mobius inside it.
"Then Doctor, I wish you success!"
After speaking, Klein turned her body around, she planned to continue working.
"Klein..."
Then, Mobius suddenly grabbed her and said with a smile, "This person is very important to me, so... I hope Klein can recruit him personally, and... Before he brings it, don't tell him my name, let alone tell him this is my laboratory..."
Klein "..."
"Doctor, this is your own business, and..."
Klein looked speechlessly at Mobius and said, "Dr. Mobius, just saying your name is enough to scare almost everyone away. None of the interns from last year are willing to come to our laboratory. Don't you know that, Doctor? That you are the sole reason for that?"
"No, Klein..."
Mobius pulled Klein's sleeve directly, looked at Klein with pleading eyes, and said, "Please, Klein, you know ordinary people will reject me when they hear my name, so if I go to recruit him on person, I will definitely not succeed, so... Klein, please help me."
Klein directly ignored her doctor's words, Planning to leave...
"Klein..."
Mobius hugged Klein decisively, and said coquettishly, "Just go there in person, I know you are the best for me, Klein... big sis Klein, please~..."
Klein "..."
"Hey... I really can't say no to you doctor." In the end, Klein could only agree to her doctor's request. Feeling very tired all of a sudden, her mind started to come up with a suitable recruitment speech.
Of course, even if the other party agreed to see the laboratorium, Klein felt that the chance of success in recruiting him was low. After all, no one in the M.O.T.H organization didn't know about Mobius' "notoriety". The young man will definitely try to run away in a few days, after all, this kind of thing has happened many times.
"The Eruption that would occur on Nagazora is about to happen sooner or later, at this moment, the safest place to make a shelter should be either in Shenzou or Bauru, but I'm not familiar with this era Bauru, while the Shenzhou of this era is not much different from those of my world."
While leaning on a wooden chair in one of the many classrooms of Chiba academy, Loki began to thought about the best choice for his next destination and decided to prepare to go to his mother's hometown rather than his father's.
From the current information that he had gathered so far, Shenzou is the current best choice for him, since, unlike Bauru, there is no Honkai outbreak that spawned Templar-Class Honkai or above, this single information is enough to make him go there.
Moreover, the extreme east is not far from Shenzhou, and it can be reached in less than an hour by using a plane, and the plane ticket doesn't cost too much.
But although he already planned to go to Shenzou, it would only be a temporary residence, since soon, the first thirteen Herrscherr will emerge, and then the gigantic final one will also come to clean the human race up, so he could only live to the fullest for 10 years at max.
There is also the choice of directly building an underground base in this Pre-Era honkai-verse, then using this era technology to go dormant using the cyro chamber and wait till the next era comes over.
This method should be feasible, but there are many problems if he chose to do it, such as the funding that is needed to make the underground base, the technology for the dormant cabin which so far, has yet to be invented, there is also the problem regarding scientific research personnel, etc., all of which are indispensable if he wants to make his plan work, and unfortunately, the time that he has is very short.
"Ring Ling Ling..."
At this moment, the bell rang for the end of the class, and the morning class ended with it.
"Haaaah~.."
Loki stretched his body, and then left the classroom alongside the rest of the students in it, planning to go to the school cafeteria to grab a quick lunch.
unfortunately, there is no special types of foods that only exist in this era. Anyway, most of the foods he has seen in the school cafeteria are the one that can be seen after 50,000 years has passed. The staple foods are still rice and flour, and the recipes are no different from the future ones.
In the afternoon, Loki was resting in his rental apartment, thinking about going to Shenzou to lie down his path on how to make an underground base to wairwait the next era.
Because he had already gone to Shenzou a few times in his past life with his whole family, and also had resided there for the first half of his life, he can be considered a native of Shenzhou, so it is very easy to go back, but the problem is that he is still a student of Chiba College, which is the top college in the world. If he can graduate from here, then he will doesn't need to worry about his future work path.
Hence, because of that, if he decided to leave Nagazora City, this also means that he also need to leave Chiba academy in advance, and by doing so, he will lose his identity would make it very difficult to start a money-making business and will need to build the underground shelter from scratch.
However, if he doesn't leave Nagazora, he is afraid of the incoming third Eruption, since it will happen sooner or later, and he's afraid that if he doesn't leave soon, he will be buried alongside the rest of the residents here, since, unlike the next era, most of the Herrscherr in the previous era are serious on their mission to end humanity, and will not be easily defeated by a mere hug or a kiss from a pretty girl.
"Ding dong..."
Just as Loki was busy struggling on deciding what is the best time to leave Nagazora, the doorbell of his house suddenly rang, snapping the young man from his thought.
"Huh?"
Loki was feeling a little puzzled. He's just transmigrated 2 months ago, and from what his memories told him, he should have no friends right?
Of course, even if he is still in doubt, it's a basic manner to see who is knocking on his door before turning them away, Loki quickly got up and went to open the door.
Opening the door, Loki found a gorgeous green-haired girl standing at the door. Although her expression was a little dull, it didn't affect her beauty at all, it give her some sort of cool-girl charm instead.
While looking at her appearance. Loki suddenly realize something weird, the girl in front of him felt a little familiar and yet not, realizing that Loki now began to wonder if she was one of those NPC girls that only have their outline drawn, while their face, mouth, and rest are utterly blank.
But after a few moments, Loki realized who this girl in front of him is.
"Hello, Loki."
And after seeing Loki, the girl greeted him immediately.
"Uh... hello, you are... Klein?"
Although Loki was a little unsure if he got the name right, he felt that the girl in front of him was too similar to the Klein Elf from the game, there is some difference between the girl in front of him and the image on the game, but barring those difference, it's the same.
"Oops, you actually know me..."
Hearing Loki calling out her name directly, Klein panicked inside her heart, because... If Loki knew her name, then obviously the young man should know about Mobius, the doctor she was working under, and with the notoriety of Mobius, if she still wants to recruit Loki, then the chance of that happening would immediately turn to zero.
Well, it's not like it's possible in the first place, she had no hope about this endeavor before she came, and now, it is even more hopeless!
"Huh? Actually? What do you mean?"
Hearing Klein's words, Loki was also a little puzzled.
"Well...it's nothing."
Although she panicked a bit, Klein had been working with Mobius for several years as an assistant. she had seen everything that any human being shouldn't see in these past years, so a little rejection is nothing for her, rather than focusing on the incoming refusal, she focuses on another thing instead.
"I'm only interested in the fact that you know about me. It's just a little surprise, can you tell me how you know me?"
"Uh..."
Loki was stunned for a moment, how did he know Klein's..., of course, he knew it from the game, but he definitely can't say that unless he wants to get strapped on an operation table and get bisected like a lab rat.
"Forget it, it's fine if you don't want to tell me about it, I already know the reason"
Seeing that Loki didn't seem to want to say it, Klein had already guessed the answer. There is no doubt that it's because he knew that she was working under Mobius. The fact that she was Mobius's assistant is something that many people already know, so it's not surprising.
Loki, feeling a little stupefied, began to wander '...What did i know?'
"So..."
Looking at Loki who is silent, Klein began to talk in a low voice, "My doctor rudely asked you to take care of her last night, so the doctor asked me to say thank you for her, other than that…."
"The doctor also wants to invite you to her laboratory. so that she can thank you in person."
Klein dared not say that Mobius is trying to recruit Loki to work in her lab, she is afraid that if she said so, Loki might just directly slam the door in her face, and from her past experience, the feeling of a thick wooden door slammed right into your face is not pleasant at all.
"The Doctor..."
Loki suddenly thought of something and asked, "Your doctor... Could she be a green-haired girl called Mobius?"
at the back of his mind, Loki remembered some information from the game. Although he didn't watch the plot and the animation that got released on youtube, and also didn't fully clear the level, he knew from a few Reddit posts that say Klein was the assistant of Mobius, one of the top dogs of the previous era, so...
That drunken girl last night was Mobius?
Eh, wait, there seems to be something wrong with this script, shouldn't Mobius be a naughty loli? When did she become a big sis?
Loki remembered very clearly that before he crossed over to this world, the version of the game that he last played seemed to have reached 5.1, but his account had been half-abandoned for almost a full year, so after the version update went online, he logged in just to get the return rewards, and then draw some cards and play at most once. Hence, because of that, his knowledge about the plot is scarce.
Loki who realizes how lacking his knowledge about Honkai is starts to regret not playing the game more.
"Looks like you know my doctor..."
After hearing Loki mention the characteristic of Mobius, Klein was even more sure that Loki knew Mobius, so... the recruitment is probably not going to work. It can't be helped then.
"Uh... Mobius, of course, I know about her, after all, she is an excellent scientist."
Loki smiled and said, "It's just that I just heard about it, and I haven't seen Mobius. that's why I didn't recognize her last night."
"Excellent, that's great..."
Klein seemed a little surprised when Loki commented on his doctor. Whether it's from the outside or inside, there are many comments on Mobius, but without exception... they're all bad comments!
Not to mention excellence, after all, Mobius is indeed an excellent scientist and contribute a lot to mankind, but greatness, in the eyes of everyone else who is not great, is something that they see as a bad thing, hence the cliché of Mad scientist.
But. . . . . Looking at Loki's reaction, the young man seems to have a good impression of her doctor? If it's like this, perhaps recruitment is still possible after all . . .
Because of that, Klein's originally stunned face showed a little happy smile.

Capítulo 2: Chapter 2: Bringer of Storm met a Snake
Nagazora City
When it's at night, at the time when the morning sun was starting to show itself, Loki was still walking on the streets of the city alone, wondering if he really decided to change his place of residence to save himself, to which city should he go to next.
It has been two months since the reincarnated man came to this forsaken world that ripped off more than a year's worth of his salary. After doing some information gathering by using the computer there, Loki now had some basic understanding of the situation that surrounds the Pre-Era Honkai civilization.
At first, while Loki does sees the various Honkai Beast and Honkai Zombies, he is still feeling a little skeptical; that's why he does some independent research, and after a while, he can say with certainty that the world that he was transmigrated into was the Honkai Impact 3 World, the Previous Era variant one at that.
While turning his head to the side, looking at the shining city, Loki couldn't but help to think about the event of the past few months; he still remembered that when he came to this world two months ago, for some reason, Loki got transmigrated right in the middle of a Honkai outbreak, and not only that, he also almost lost his life to a Honkai beast.
Thankfully, he got Paimon inside his soul for some reason. She also got some kind of system-lite cheat that is similar to gacha, so those kinds of cheat helped him immensely, something that he still feels grateful to Paimon.
Also, due to the gacha that Paimon gave him, he can get a 5-star stigmata. Although it's just a single piece of 5-star stigmata, the power that Loki can summon just from that alone is enough to completely eradicate the surrounding Honkai Beast and Zombies and thus saving the numerous civilians.
After finishing the rest of the Honkai Beast, Loki hid by blending in with the other ordinary civilians and fled with the surviving refugees; after withdrawing from the scene with the others, his group was finally taken over by the Fire Moth Army. At first, Loki thought that he would be locked up by them and going to be experimented on, seeing as he's a transmigrated person, so Loki thought that he had no formal identity in this world, but surprisingly, Loki actually has a legal identity certificate in this world, and it's Julian Loki, one of the new high-school student of Shiba High-school on the city of Nagazora.
And it's not just a student card that he has, he also has other official documents ready, something that seems to be highly suspicious to Loki, but since he has no idea what to do, he just lets it slide and tries to live his life.
Also, the body that he has transmigrated into is exactly the same as the one that he had in his previous life; even the little scar that he got from playing football and fencing is also there, so in the end, Loki comes to the conclusion that rather than transmigrated or reincarnated, what truly happened to him is that his consciousness got swapped with the Loki in this world.
Now that he is a student of Chiba Highschool, and moreover, a student who has excellent grades, he got a substantial scholarship from the school, so the matter of financial situation has been solved, so logically, there is no reason for why he can't just stay in Nagazora until he finished his education, but there is a little problem.
Rather than staying in this doomed city named Nagazora, Loki cemented his desire to leave the city as fast as possible!
As a transmigrate who know the entire backstory of Honkai Impact 3, there is no way Loki doesn't know that Nagazora city is the location where the third Honkai Outbreak happened.
If he decided to stay in this city, what is the difference between suicide? If he really wanted to die that badly, he would just hang himself to hasten the process, not wait for the outbreak to happen.
And although Loki has a few stigmata to help him resist the erosion that happens from the Honkai and some excellent combat power, he still feels like it's not something that can help him survive.
After all, comparing the Valkrie from the future era, Loki's combat power is not even at A rank yet; at most high-end B rank, he can still fight against small fry with ease without any worry. Still, if his opponent is Templar-Class or above, unless he got some help, his best option is to just run away.
Hence, his best bet to survive in this world is to just hide away from the problem.
While it's true, perhaps, other transmigrators would usually try their best to get to the main cast and follow the usual canon, to take advantage of their meta-knowledge, such as staying in Nagazora to befriend all three of the main cast and wait patiently for the Honkai outbreak to happen, so that they can stay in Saint Freya, and try their best to gain the affection from various valkyrie, but well . . .
While the city is correct, and the world is right, too, it seems the timeline where he landed is a bit off since the world that he transmigrated into is the Pre-Era civilizations. At this time, the Kaslana ancestor Kevin Kaslana is still a little kid.
If it's the future civilization, with the combined efforts of both Otto Apocalypse and the Kaslana progenitor, Kevin, plus the anti-entropy duo, Tesla and Einstein, maybe the world can really survive. There is still hope; that's what Loki's original plan actually was, to join Schicskal and do his share of work, but unfortunately. . .
This is a pre-civilization era, and the Herrscher of the pre-civilization has the power and the means to burn a continent at will or directly sink a continent by a black hole; finally, there is also the final fight against the Herrscherr of the End!
Come on, there is no way an ant-like him can survive in this era, with the cheat he got from his companion.
If he travels to the Honkai Impact world and joins the future civilization, as long as the traveler is lucky enough, they can survive if they don't derail the canon event too much, and if they are charismatic enough, they can even get a former valkyrie as a wife and have a happy life, but if it is a pre-civilization, you just say, there is no way to save themselves, it's better to just enjoy their last few weeks of survival and wait for the end to come.
After all, Loki, a transmigrator who knows the plot of the game, is very aware of the ending of the pre-era civilization. After the fight against the Herrscherr of The End, except for a few people who entered the hibernation chamber and a few Flame Chaser who carried out their own plans, human civilization has completely perished!
So, that's why Loki was feeling quite dejected in the last few weeks, and with a sigh, he began to thought in a depressed mood. 'Haaah. . . the condition to live in the pre-era is too hard, should I just change side?'
After thinking deeper, Loki dismissed this idea and let out a troubled sigh.
"Haaah..."
Thinking of his bleak future, Loki sighed again. Although he didn't know which timeline he was in right now, what he was sure of is that it was before the Third Honkai eruption because Nagazora is still standing, so. . . .
Although he doesn't fully understand the timeline of the pre-era civilization, it should be at least ten years before the Herrscher of the End appears. However, this does not mean that he can spend ten years safely. Since after the fall of Nagazora, rather than being alive, what human beings are doing is more akin to survival!
'Forget it, don't think too much about it; in short, it's best to leave Nagazora City, even if it's only temporarily; after all, this place is no longer safe.' While nodding his head with satisfaction, Loki began to plan out his escape.
"If you don't want to get hurt, just follow us obediently. Doctor, you are a smart person and should know what to do!"
Suddenly, Ling Xi heard the shout of a man right in front of him, and... the scene that he saw was something that he had seen numerous times in various action blockbuster movies.
Without overthinking, Loki decided to join something that he see as a mugging. This is Loki's personality; if he encounters something that he likes, he wouldn't even hesitate to meddle in another person's business.
After turning in a corner, Loki saw three men in black clothes who wear black cloaks on their heads to cover their faces, all three of them are cornering a woman in a white shirt in the alley, and the three of them stand in the way that makes it impossible for her to escape.
"With that in mind, please come with us; as long as you cooperate nicely, we will treat you like how a normal guess would."
The first man said in an indifferent voice, "Doctor, don't force us to use harmful means on you."
The cornered woman, without showing any expression of fear on her face, just folded her arms in front of her chest and said calmly, "So... Klein was taken away by you lot, right?"
The woman in the white shirt has this weirdly green-colored hair. Furthermore, the woman looks drunk at this time, but the way her eyes are focused on the three-man in front of her shows that her consciousness is still relatively clear.
Looking at the three people in front of her, she said with a half-smile, "I didn't expect that they would actually do this kind of thing. If this matter comes out in the open, do you know how dire the consequences will be?"
Mobius scrutinized the three people in front of her. she didn't know who they were, but she had a hunch about who sent the three of them after her.
'I thought that they would follow the academy's rules and beat me in the academic category; unexpectedly, they would try to break the rules and use the underworld force to compel me to obey them.'
"Go!" Seeing that Mobius didn't plan to obediently follow them without wasting any time, the other party shouted his order toward his two companions. Without any delay, the two guys began to move toward her.
"Ugh..."
Mobius's blue eyes flickered toward her surroundings quickly, and her mind began to churn out plans to get out of this situation.
Loki, who is currently hiding behind a wall near them, suddenly sees a blue box appear in front of him and exclaims happily with a grin. "Oh, it seems this kind of situation can grant me a mission too!"
[An unexpected event has appeared before you; in the face of the current situation, what is your choice? ]
[A: Save and take care of the other party until the other party sobers up! Mission reward: a supply card! ]
[B: Pretend that nothing happened, go home, take a wash and sleep! Mission Rewards: None! ]
[C: Shouting to the three of them, let go of the girl and come at me! Mission reward: Other party affection ]
With a confused expression, Loki began to thought. '. . . Wait, I can understand the first two rewards, but what the hell is the last reward?'
Looking at the third option on the reward list, Loki just stares at it with a tired gaze before deciding to pretend it was never there in the first place.
After thinking about it for a while, Loki chose to pick the first option after some consideration.
With a decisive resolve in his heart, the world traveler began to walk toward the group of men in black with a hard gaze.
"Hey! Don't you think it's a bit too much for a bunch of guys teaming up against a single woman? Do you have no confidence and pride in yourself?"
After saying that, he continued walking and said with a teasing smile. "Goodness gracious. never thought I would encounter this kind of cliché movie plot as soon as I moved in, lucky me I guess."
"What the-." Seeing the young man's sudden appearance, the three men clothed in black looked a bit slumped, and without any hesitation, one of the larger men directly pulled a katana out of his back and lunged at Loki.
"…."
Looking at the incoming blade, with a grace of a trained warrior, the former footballer tilted his body sideways and perfectly dodged the sword, and with a tired sigh, he began to complain in his heart.
'God, does thug nowadays directly kill anyone who talks to them these days? What a pain in the arse'
Seeing the young man successfully dodge his attack, without any delay, the other man in black also began to launch their strike at Loki.
Seeing all three of them begin to gang up on him, Loki said with a smile. "Well well well, don't mind if I do this then."
"Body Reinforcement! Lightning enhancement!"
After activating his stigmata, a faint electricity current appeared around his hand, and with an excited smile, Loki punched the incoming attacker.
[Crackle!]
In an instant, the figure of a man clothed in black while holding a katana sword was seen being punched right in his face and directly slammed toward the wall of the street, a small crack appeared right behind his head.
The punched man began to cough violently in pain, although thanks to modern-era body enhancement technology make his body is not injured, the electricity that traveled inside his body made his muscle spam and paralyzed him, and the strange power that Loki showed to him also directly plummeted his fighting will to the ground.
"Eh?" Seeing the situation, the stunned Mobius began to look at Loki carefully, to be precise, the green-haired scientist was seriously watching the electric current that hovering around his arm with curiosity.
"Fuck off! This is none of your business! Just move along and we won't pursue this further!"
Seeing Loki is able to punch his teammate and paralyze him directly, the first man began to coil his body and start to get serious. He is afraid that this strange young man is not as simple as a passerby.
"It doesn't matter who I am, what I'm interested in is what you guys are doing to her."
Loki didn't plan to tell the other party his identity. Although he was about to leave Nagazora City, it was still not a good thing to be noticed too much, since he didn't know if there is any crouching tiger or sleeping dragon in this big city.
"Save me..."
At this moment, Mobius suddenly sped up to Loki's body, hugged Loki's arm, and said with a face full of fear with tears pooling in her eyes, while it's mostly fake, it still looks realistic enough to fool Loki, a young man who has never met someone like her. "They want to do bad things to me, I beg you, please save me..."
"This..."
Seeing that Mobius suddenly ran to the side of the young man, the remaining two thugs were also a little confused, this... is since when did the devil can be scared to tears?.
"Uh..."
Loki also felt a little speechless, but he didn't mean to push the other party away, he just bend his body slightly and comforted the young lady in front of him with a smile, "Don't worry, I won't let them do this."
Seeing that Mobius had already leaned on Loki's side, the man in black also decided to give up the mission, not to mention whether the two of them combined could defeat the mysterious man, the key is that if they continue to drag on, they will most likely be discovered by the patrol police. , it will be more troublesome when that happens.
As a result, the two men in black held the injured teammates on the left and the right side and quickly disappeared into the darkness.
"Huh?"
Seeing them fleeing, Loki's first reaction was to catch up to them and tied them up, and then leave them to the police, but after thinking about it carefully, the mission that he got was just to save this green-haired girl beside him and taking care of her until she sobered up, and it seems there is no mention on defeating the three of those thugs on the mission requirement.
And the more important thing is, if he wants to catch up to them, it's impossible to do so since it means he will leave this terrified girl behind, if he does that, he is afraid that this girl will encounter more danger.
At the same time, his stamina is quite depleted right now, and it's better to keep some gas left in the tank just in case the eruption happens so that he can run away from the city quickly.
In the end, after thinking about it more deeply and weighing the pros and cons, Loki chose to stay with the girl and let those 3 underworld thugs run and flee.
He glanced down at the green-haired girl who is hanging on his body, the way her body is swinging left and right told him that she is about to fall asleep soon.
"Um... I can't afford to stay in a hotel..."
After thinking about it for a while, Loki in the end decisively chose to pick her up and prepared to take her back to his apartment.
"Is there any wine? I want to drink."
At Loki's house, Mobius hugged Loki directly and said drunkenly, "I can still drink..."
"..." Hearing that, Loki just looked at their reflection in the mirror, he looks like a koala with the way Mobius was hanging on his shoulder.
Loki was even able to smell the scent of Mobius, who seemed to be wrapping her arms around his neck. Of course, it was more of the smell of alcohol.
In addition, previously due to the dim lighting of the street, but now when he looks at it more carefully, to be honest, if the max score is 100, then Mobius figure will get at the very least 95 score.
Looking at Mobius, Loki can't help but complain inside his heart.
Someone this pretty, while heavily drunk, is running around in the dangerous part of the town, so it's no wonder that she has someone following her from behind.
Loki began to squint his eyes, after looking at her face carefully, he began to realize that her face seems to be a little familiar.
While Loki was busy recalling if he has any memory about the lady in front of him, Mobius lightly beat her arms into his chest with a pout and muttered in a low voice. "Give me wine! If you don't give me wine, I will be angry! I won't play with you anymore."
Looking at her pouting face, he just pat his chest slightly and muttered inside his heart 'endure it for the mission reward, just endure it.'
"I have no more wine in my fridge, and it's already midnight, so no store is open, do you mind if I buy it tomorrow?"
Feeling Helpless, Loki could only start coaxing her like a child. This kind of thing is something that can't be helped, , who made the task requirement to take care of her until she sobered up?
"Huh?"
Mobius glanced at Loki in a daze, and said, "Then... let's do a game of poker! if I win you will give me a drink, if I lose... um um... then The loser is the one drinking!"
Loki looked at her speechless.
"I don't know how to play poker…"
Loki rubbed his forehead with a headache, this supply card is too difficult to get.
"It's all right, come closer, I will teach you how it goes…."
Mobius smiled, let go of Loki, and then began to teach how the game worked and what the rules are.
Loki who was being pestered endlessly can only sigh in defeat, it can't be helped, for the quest reward, he can only endure all of this and treat the other party as if she was his elder.
When the girl began to bring up the topic of drinking more alcohol, Loki just decisively refused her request and instead give her some herbal tea that he brought from the commercial store.
In the end, the green-haired girl kept pestering Loki endlessly for 2 hours straight before falling asleep on his couch, and it wasn't until after one o'clock in the morning that Loki finally took the sleeping Mobius back to his room to let her sleep, while the world traveler goes to his couch to take a rest.
