"So, Xiaomu had such a warm and loving home in her previous world..."
Gan Yu murmured.
"Indeed...it's very enviable..."
Walnut nodded slightly.
"hehe……"
The True Lord of the Illusory Book of Dreams simply smiled and didn't say anything more.
At this moment, the image on the light screen changed again...
"Xiao Mu." When they saw the scene again, several years had passed, and Jiang Mu had grown into a handsome young man.
"dad."
Putting down the blueprints in his hand, Jiang Mu pushed up his glasses and looked at the source of the voice—his own father—and asked in confusion.
"Is there something you need?"
"Let's go, let's go..." But Jiang's father seemed not to hear Jiang Mu's words and directly put his arm around Jiang Mu's shoulder.
"Stop looking at these blueprints, come on, let's go see something even more amazing!"
"What...?"
"It's your idol, Bishop Otto."
Father Jiang explained.
“When we had dinner together the other day, I casually mentioned you. He was very interested in you, so he decided to have dinner with you.”
"when!"
"Tomorrow night."
"Then why am I in such a hurry..." Jiang Mu said, burying himself once again in his pile of blueprints...
Seeing this, Father Jiang simply smiled and continued speaking.
“Bishop Otto said you can arrive at the Destiny headquarters early and have a short visit…”
Why didn't you say so sooner!
Jiang Mu flipped the table over, took out the suitcase underneath, and looked at his father.
"Yes, yes, yes..."
"I can't help it," said Father Jiang.
He knew his son's personality all too well; when it came to things like mechanics and technology, he was absolutely adamant...
This is no metaphor. I remember one time, my house was struck by lightning, and coincidentally, it hit Jiang Mu's bedroom.
When the couple angrily pushed open the door, the scene before them froze them in place.
Inside the room, Jiang Mu's top-of-the-line Alienware computer was whirring and emitting plumes of black smoke and sparks. Jiang Mu was intently studying the blueprints he had received just two days ago, his pen still scribbling in his notebook beside him...
Seemingly disturbed by the two, Jiang Mu turned around from his thoughts, looked at his parents who were in shock, and said calmly.
"Is there something you need?"
"That...that..."
Father Jiang pointed to the "computer" next to him.
"Be...be careful..."
Jiang Mu glanced to the side, then turned back and said seriously.
"I see."
"That's...that's good..."
With that, the couple stepped out and quietly closed the door.
Afterwards, the couple looked at each other and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"You said..." Back in the bedroom, Jiang's mother nestled beside Jiang's father and asked.
"Who do you think Xiaomu looks like...?"
"Of course he looks like his old man!" Father Jiang said smugly. "He's just like me, of course!"
"Shameless..." Jiang's mother chuckled.
"I hope Xiaomu will always stay like this..."
“Yes…” Father Jiang murmured.
"Being a pure researcher is much better than fighting for power and profit..."
………………
The following day, Jiang Mu, fully prepared, arrived at the First Airport of Destiny by drone with his father.
"..."
Jiang Mu stared intently at the approaching airport, his eyes brimming with excitement.
Jiang Mu hadn't forgotten the fact that he was a reincarnated person, but in this world, in order to fight against the disaster called "Honkai," the only weapons humanity had, besides some mystical abilities, were technology...
This organization, known as "Destiny," represents one of the world's most advanced technological capabilities...
This strong technological vibe is the best testament to its technological capabilities...
"Hehe..." Looking at his son's expression, how could Mr. Jiang not guess what he was thinking?
"Don't worry..." Father Jiang said with a smile.
“Bishop Otto has already told me that someone will be there to greet you and show you around the entire area, except for a few highly confidential places…”
"!"
Jiang Mu's eyes immediately lit up.
"Perfect timing, the blueprints I've been looking at recently have been mostly analyzed, so let's take this opportunity..."
Although he didn't know what kind of cheat code the "god" had given him, Jiang Mu could clearly feel that his memory and analytical abilities were much stronger than those of ordinary people, which was why he specialized in the "craft" of mechanics.
………………
"boom--"
As the drone landed heavily, the hatch slowly opened. Standing outside the hatch was a person.
She wore a black silk maid outfit adorned with roses, her short, grey-gold hair covering her left eye was adorned with a ram's horn rose Katyusha hat, and a beauty mark at the corner of her right eye added to her pitiful appearance. On her right leg, she wore a decorative stocking...
"Maid!"
Jiang Mu was slightly taken aback.
"I am Rita Losweiser." The girl bowed slightly and gave a formulaic smile.
"She is an ordinary maid of Destiny."
"By order of Bishop Otto, I have come today to show you around the headquarters of Destiny."
"I see……"
Jiang Mu nodded and looked at his father.
"Then Dad, I'll go first."
"Yes." Father Jiang nodded, but still gave some instructions.
"Don't cause any trouble."
"I'm very reliable." Jiang Mu gave a thumbs up.
………………
Rita quietly led the way for Jiang Mu, who was too embarrassed to ask any questions. The two walked slowly forward in this somewhat eerie atmosphere...
After a while, the two arrived at a large gate.
"Lord Jiang Mu." Rita bowed slightly.
“Bishop Otto is waiting for you inside.”
"What!"
Jiang Muxin trembled violently.
My idol... was actually waiting for me!
"this……"
Jiang Mu suddenly felt a little lost.
"You don't need to be so nervous..."
Rita looked at Jiang Mu and found it somewhat amusing.
“Bishop Otto is a very easy-going person, and you will surely be able to get along with him.”
"I hope so..."
Jiang Mu took a deep breath, pushed open the door, and went inside...
………………
The room was brightly lit, and a tall man stood there. Hearing the door open, he slowly turned around.
Her long, golden hair was tied in a single ponytail and draped over her left shoulder. Her emerald green eyes stared at Jiang Mu, who had just walked in. She wore only a purple coat with gold trim and a shawl, the collar and cuffs of which were white. The only decoration was a red scarf tied around her neck.
"Welcome, my dear friend."
Seeing the somewhat dazed Jiang Mu, the man—no, it should be Bishop Otto—smiled slightly, came to Jiang Mu's side, and extended his hand.
"Nice to meet you."
“I am Otto Apocalypse, the Bishop of Destiny.”
