The Void Belt is only suitable for Sirin to use. If anyone else uses it, it will result in a thousand damages to the enemy and eight hundred damages to oneself. Qiu Bi is no exception.
Chapter Twelve: Sirin Wants to Turn Her Big Brother into a Magical Girl!
Although the Spear of the Void is shaped like a "spear", it is actually quite different. Not only does it lack a handle, but both ends are pointed spears, with only the area where the two meet serving as the gripping area.
"Big brother, you can only target bad guys, you can't hurt innocent people!"
Upon hearing this, Qiu Bi looked helpless and couldn't help but reach out and ruffle Xilin's hair.
Despite being injected with Honkai energy by the researchers, Sirin still thinks about the innocent researchers. I don't know whether to call Sirin a "little angel" or "foolishly kind".
However, it is precisely this kind of Sirin that makes her a beloved "little angel".
"Ouch! Big brother, you're so mean! You've already messed up Celine's hair, stop rubbing it!"
"Okay, okay, then I won't rub it anymore."
Qiu Bi reached out to smooth Xilin's hair, but instead made it even more messy.
In response, Xilin pouted angrily, looking like she was "very unhappy".
Qiu Bi chuckled, then took Xilin's soft hand and tried to lead her into the area where the researchers worked.
However, Xilin broke free from Qiu Bi's grasp and angrily turned her back to him.
Qiu Bi had no choice but to gently comfort him for a moment, which finally put an end to the "messing up hair" incident.
"Hmph! Since big brother is sincerely apologizing, then Sirin will mercifully forgive you!"
Before she finished speaking, Xilin threw herself into Qiu Bi's arms, affectionately rubbing her cheek against his and clinging to him.
Qiu Bi hugged Xilin tightly, then slowly walked into the area where the researchers worked.
Given Qiu Bi's unexplained disappearance during the day, several security personnel were added to the area where the researchers worked, precisely to prevent the researchers from being attacked.
Unfortunately, these security measures were practically useless in front of Qiu Bi and Xilin.
Apart from the designated researchers, none of the other researchers or security personnel could see Qiu Bi and Xilin.
The researchers who could see the two could only make out two white "human figures," and could not make out their specific appearance or even touch them.
However, the two can in turn contact with the researchers, and even kill them.
When Qiu Bi and Xilin passed through the wall and entered the room, several researchers immediately noticed the two white "human figures".
For a moment, the researchers thought it was just a hallucination caused by their own exhaustion, and they subconsciously rubbed their eyes.
When they opened their eyes again, they were horrified to find that the two white "human figures" had not disappeared, but had instead shortened their distance considerably.
"Hey! Quick, take care of them!"
One of the researchers closest to the white "humanoid" panicked first and immediately ordered nearby security personnel to attack the white "humanoid".
The security guards exchanged glances, then cautiously approached the researcher and escorted him to safety.
"What happened?"
The security guards looked around, but apart from the puzzled researcher, there was no one else in sight.
"Damn it! Can't you see those things?! Pick up your weapons and take care of them right now!"
"But we didn't see where the enemy was."
The weapons equipped by the security personnel are all capable of using Honkai energy, which is sufficient to harm or even kill Honkai Beasts and zombies.
However, all of this is predicated on knowing the enemy's location; otherwise, the weapons you're equipped with will just be a bunch of oddly shaped metal objects.
Qiu Bi initially didn't know which researcher could see him and Xilin, but seeing the researcher's strong reaction, he knew that the researcher could see him and Xilin, so he walked towards the researcher at a leisurely pace.
Upon seeing the white "humanoid" figure approaching him, fear and terror instantly filled the researcher's face, driving him to instinctively flee.
In response, Qiu Bi quickened his pace and rushed towards the gate without any obstruction.
Compared to researchers who need to turn and avoid obstacles, Qiu Bi's route was very simple and direct, heading straight for the gate.
No matter how the researchers try to escape, they will eventually rush towards the gate.
When Qiu Bi arrived at the gate, he happened to meet the researcher's horrified and fearful eyes.
Immediately, the Spear of Subspace was thrust into the researcher's chest, piercing his heart precisely and killing him instantly.
To the other researchers, this scene appeared as a Void Spear appearing out of thin air, and then the researcher deliberately offered his heart to the Void Spear, allowing it to pierce through his heart.
The researcher and the security personnel were both stunned for a moment, then belatedly realized what was happening. The former hid in a corner of the room, while the latter picked up his weapon and fired at the door.
Qiu Bi instructed Xilin to retrieve the Void Spear, ignoring the hail of bullets coming at them, and walked towards the group of researchers at a leisurely pace.
Because the researchers were clustered together, Qiu Bi had difficulty identifying who the target was, so he could only choose to kill a few of the most panicked "lucky ones".
The researcher who looks the most flustered may not be the target of this trip, but the target of this trip will definitely look very flustered.
As for wrongful killing...
Surprisingly, Qiu Bi didn't feel much about it, and even killing his own kind didn't evoke much emotion.
"It must be because he died once, right?"
Qiu Bi muttered to himself as he slowly walked toward the group of researchers.
Upon hearing Qiu Bi's mutterings, Xilin immediately cried out anxiously, "No! Xilin won't allow big brother to die! If big brother dies... um... then Xilin will bring big brother back to life and turn him into a magical girl again!"
"Sirin, men can't become magical girls."
"Then I won't be a man! It's not bad for an older brother to become an older sister!"
"..."
Qiu Bi was speechless, unsure how to answer Xilin.
After much deliberation, he finally decided to leave the matter to Xilin's mother and let her correct Xilin's wrong ideas.
Putting aside the fact that Qiu Bi doesn't want to become a woman at all, Xi Lin's mother's attitude towards Qiu Bi alone means that Xi Lin's mother will never allow Xi Lin to change Qiu Bi from "big brother" to "big sister".
Then, Qiu Bi shook his head, putting these distracting thoughts aside, and walked towards the group of researchers with a smile.
To the few researchers who could see Qiu Bi and Xilin, the white "humanoid" was like a brutal "demon," slowly approaching them and exerting invisible psychological pressure on them.
Before long, these researchers broke down in panic, pushing aside the other researchers and scrambling towards the door.
At this moment, the white "humanoid" was far away from the gate, making it the perfect time to escape.
Seeing this, Qiu Bi's smile grew even wider, and he strolled leisurely toward the gate.
The night is still long, and we can slowly unfold a "cat and mouse" drama.
Chapter Thirteen: Precepts
Late at night on July 19, 1999.
The Babylonian laboratory was attacked by an unknown entity, resulting in the deaths of a total of 32 researchers.
Neither nearby witnesses nor nearby security cameras could detect the unidentified presence of the attackers.
The only thing known is that these researchers must have seen some kind of terrifying being, and ultimately died one by one while fleeing in panic.
In response to this "mysterious" incident, the Archbishop of Destiny, Otto Apocalypse, ordered a thorough investigation and dispatched the S-rank Valkyrie Theresa Apocalypse and the A-rank Valkyrie Patrick Highsmith.
At the same time, Anti-Entropy, having already observed the Herrscher reaction of the Second Herrscher, then led the Titan forces to Siberia under the leadership of Anti-Entropy's leader, Welt Yang.
Qiu Bi was fully aware of the actions of Destiny and Anti-Entropy, but he did not act rashly. Instead, he patiently waited for Theresa Apocalypse to arrive.
"Big brother, when are we going home? Xilin misses her mom a little."
Xilin sat in Qiu Bi's lap, swinging her legs out of sheer boredom.
Qiu Bi thought for a moment, then tentatively asked, "Shall we go home and sleep tonight?"
"Yes! Sirin is going to tell Mom about becoming a magical girl!"
Xilin waved her arms excitedly, but accidentally hit Qiu Bi in the face.
Qiu Bi gently pinched Xilin's cheek, a new worry creeping into his heart.
If I take Xilin home to sleep tonight, I might get exploited by Xilin's mother again...
Whenever Qiu Bi thought of Xilin's mother, who was as fierce as a wolf, he felt restless.
Although Celine's mother felt very moist and comfortable, her own body couldn't quite handle it.
After much deliberation, Qiu Bi made a decision—he must exchange the contract fragments for an ability related to "kidney" enhancement.
"Big brother, don't tease Sirin! Sirin is almost an adult!"
"You're only an adult at 18, so you'll have to wait five more years."
Five years will pass quickly!
"Good good..."
Qiu Bi reluctantly complied with Xilin and gently stroked her hair.
He then bestowed several more abilities upon Sirin.
Contract Grants - Endurance Boost (S-Rank Valkyrie)!
The contract grants you—good fortune in times of trouble!
The contract grants—pain resistance!
The contract grants—spiritual resistance!
The contract grants you archery expertise!
The contract bestows—the precepts!
Of these six abilities, [Endurance Enhancement (S-Rank Valkyrie)] is the one Qiu Bi needs; the rest are abilities that will be used later to collect contract fragments.
[Pain Resistance] allows Sirin to ignore most pain, [Mental Resistance] allows Sirin to be immune to most mental effects, and [Archery Mastery] allows Sirin to use the Bow of Light and archery magic at will, which can be considered as filler abilities.
As for the [precepts]...
This ability is not an ordinary "Discipline" ability, but a special version that incorporates "Aponia's" "Precognition" ability, and it is an ability that will be used in future plans.
Following Sirin, Qiu Bi has now set his sights on the "Snow Wolf Squad" and the S-rank Valkyrie "Cecilia Shaniat".
