On the other hand, Mei Raiden, who has "tasted the sweetness" of psychological counseling, would often come to the health room to discuss life with Lu Mian.
It can be seen that she still seems to have some hesitation and doubt about the power in her, and even asked the strange question of whether to use it to save the world.
In response to this, Lu Mian replied:
"You just happen to have the power, you are not obligated to save anyone. Before saving the world, think about whether there is anyone you must protect."
In return, the girl stared at him for a long time.
Bronya, who is also a member of the Lu Three Family and has sworn allegiance to Lu Mian, also interacts frequently with Lu Mian.
As if she had only heard the second half of the agreement, she would come to Lu Mian's place three days out of five in a week, excluding weekends. Sometimes she would even bring her sleeping bag and game console and stay at Lu Mian's place.
Regarding this behavior, Lu Mian said with a smile:
"I have no opinion."
In addition, Wuliangta Jizi would come to Lu Mian for a drink when she had nothing to do. Of course, it was usually Wuliangta Jizi who drank, and Lu Mian would join her from time to time.
All in all, life at St. Freya Academy is pretty good.
It was evening that day.
After finishing a day of work and training, Lu Mian did not walk back to his dormitory as usual, but instead walked towards the principal's office.
After the incident of saving Himeko Murata, he has now completely become an insider of St. Freya Academy. If outsiders come to poach him, Theresa will be so anxious that she will scream out.
Naturally, it would be a good idea to borrow Theresa's authority to list a series of information about how Cocolia single-handedly pushed the third great collapse to break out in Changkong City, and then help Raiden Mei to untie the last knot in her heart.
With this thought in mind, Lu Mian knocked on the solid wooden door of the principal's office and was ready to explain.
But what he didn't expect was that after hearing his idea, Theresa didn't even ask a single question, but agreed immediately, and even added with a smile:
"Then I think this authority is useless for me to keep. If you need it, take it."
I have to say that apart from other leadership points, Theresa still has something in terms of personal charm.
Such almost unconditional trust was unexpectedly touching, at least Lu Mian was quite touched.
And for Theresa, this behavior seems reasonable.
What does Lu Mian look like in Theresa's eyes?
Even if he was not an emperor who could conquer the world and dominate the world, he was still a real talent with both wisdom and courage.
Not to mention that he completely cured Wuliangta Jizi's body as soon as he arrived. What does this mean?
It means he is a lucky star!
Even if such a person just stays in St. Freya Academy, St. Freya Academy will definitely prosper!
Not to mention that he has done a lot of practical work?
Therefore, Theresa's affection for Lu Mian can no longer be simply regarded as love or appreciation, but a deeper emotion.
Driven by this emotion, she pretended to be aggrieved and said to Lu Mian who had just taken her authority:
"Hey Lu Mian, you see how good I am to you, you can't abandon St. Freya Academy and run away with me."
"Ah? Ah, Principal, don't worry, I won't run away." Lu Mian, who was stunned for a moment, responded.
"Just call me Theresa," Theresa smiled a little more, but she still reminded him patiently, "Don't be fooled by people outside, especially my grandfather. Even if he promises to give you two Valkyries for free, you can't go with him, okay?"
These words made it even harder for Lu Mian, who was already struggling to hold back his laughter.
Forgive him for not being able to imagine the scene where the Fool or Otto used two Valkyries of Fate to lure him.
Are Orchiddale and Rita sent out together?
what.
How could such a good thing happen?
With a smile on his face, Lu Mian readily agreed.
Only then did Theresa finally have a genuine smile on her face.
But soon, her face turned bitter again as she looked at the documents in front of her. Just sitting next to her, one could feel that her brain cells were dying quickly.
Lu Mian, who had a certain fondness for Theresa, did not deliberately distance himself from her and immediately asked:
"Theresa, what are you looking at? Why do you look so sad?"
Chapter 9: Generational Intimacy (Three in One)
Seeing Theresa, who was originally smiling, suddenly turned into a mask of pain, Lu Mian blinked and then asked:
"Theresa, what are you looking at? Why do you look so sad?"
"Ah, you're here at the right time. Come over and give me some advice." Theresa's blue eyes brightened up after being awakened by these words, and she immediately called Lu Mian to come closer to her.
Perhaps it was because he had witnessed Lu Mian’s heroic power and calculation of everything as an opponent in Changkong City before, or perhaps it was because Lu Mian had too many similarities with the Fool but was not as fond of making trouble as the Fool.
In short, Theresa naturally has a high level of trust in Lu Mian and an indescribable wonderful liking for him.
Not to mention that Lu Mian had recently cured Wuliangta Jizi and through this act showed great goodwill to St. Freya Academy and her as the principal.
Naturally, this trust has also increased to a considerable level.
Because of the "generation gap" relationship, Lu Mian had a certain degree of affection for Theresa, and was also curious about her, so he didn't deliberately distance himself from her and just did as she said.
"The cleanup and governance of the rampant Honkai energy in Changkong City... the handling of various post-disaster areas..." As soon as he came to Theresa's side, he captured some key information from those documents and read it out loud.
Theresa listened to Lu Mian's subconscious murmur, nodded slightly, and explained:
"Well, you know that the Third Great Collapse just happened in Changkong City, and Changkong City and the surrounding cities that were affected are all within the Far East. As the branch of the Destiny Organization in the Far East, our Saint Freya Academy naturally has the responsibility and obligation to take on the relevant matters of post-disaster handling in line with the philosophy of 'fighting for a better world'."
After listening to Theresa's explanation, Lu Mian nodded and asked the question he wanted to ask, "Are you having trouble with the planning and implementation of various matters? I can give you some advice on this."
Hearing this, Theresa hummed softly and was about to reply, but suddenly frowned and let out a soft "hmm" and said no more.
It turned out that he saw Lu Mian bending over his office chair looking at documents, and he felt that he, as the dean, had not been hospitable enough.
Not respectful enough!
If Grandpa had used a fat, dumb goose and a perverted maid who was very capable in every sense to hook them together at this time, wouldn't Lu Mian, who was not treated well, have gone with them? !
No!
But seeing that Theresa realized the problem, she immediately jumped off the office chair and pressed Lu Mian, who had no idea what had just happened, hard on the office chair.
Then he said softly:
"How can I let you stand beside me and bend over documents when I come to ask for your help? Even if I were the principal, I wouldn't allow that. Come, sit on the principal's special soft and comfortable office chair and look at it carefully."
"Ah? Ah." Lu Mian looked at Theresa, who was smiling gently and not looking "silly" at all, and just responded twice in a daze.
At the same time, he rarely had any exaggerated expressions on his face since he lived several decades longer thanks to two simulations, but this time he opened his mouth and stared.
It was an indescribable state of stupor and surprise.
This can’t be blamed on Lu Mian’s poor psychological quality. If someone else were to take his place, the result would probably be similar.
Judging from the situation just now, he thought he would be forced to put on the purple robe, raise an army and rebel against the fools. It was really a bit scary.
And Theresa's gentle attitude...
You are not Theresa! Tell me, who are you?
Moonlight or stargazing?
While brainstorming in his mind, Lu Mian inadvertently saw a new problem between his eyes.
As we all know, normally there should be only one office chair in an office.
Now there are two people working together behind the desk, and one chair is obviously not enough.
It was obviously unrealistic to let Theresa sit in his arms, so should he move another chair in from outside the desk?
Ordinary and common thoughts floated in his mind, and Lu Mian looked down at Theresa who hadn't thought of anything yet.
Lu Mian: (._.)
Looking at the other person's petite body, which was light and flexible and could obviously fall down with a push, he raised his eyebrows and suddenly had a bold idea.
At this moment, Theresa was standing next to a mahogany desk that was as tall as her, flipping through some documents in a serious manner. She didn't notice the unintentional offensive looks from others, nor did she think about what outrageous thing would happen in the next second.
As the next second arrived, she clearly felt that her body was suddenly wrapped up by external force and lost the constraints of gravity, and her little feet slowly left the ground and became airborne.
"Eh?!" Theresa, who hadn't yet reacted to what was happening, shook her legs wrapped in white silk stockings.
Even though she was not very smart in many things on a daily basis, she was not so stupid as to think that she had suddenly learned to float and fly without any guidance in this situation.
She looked back with a "smart" look on her face, and only then did she see the whole process and the truth of the matter:
It was the man sitting in the office chair behind her with a smile on his face who stretched out his hands and "picked" her up.
Seeing this, Theresa really didn't know what to say. She tilted her head slightly and didn't rush. After all, there was no need to rush.
She got in a hurry with others and made them drive away, but in the end she was the one who felt bad.
After figuring out the whole thing, Theresa, who always made others feel helpless, had a rare look of helplessness on her cute face:
"Lu Mian, what are you doing?"
Lu Mian did not give a corresponding answer, or rather, his next action was already considered an answer.
He placed the girl on the mahogany desk and said, "Theresa, please sit on this desk. It will be convenient for us to discuss official business next."
Theresa, who was not a well-behaved child, sat on her desk and smoothed out the wrinkles on her black nun's skirt.
Looking at Lu Mian who was lower than her, she nodded slightly with a hint of curiosity, obviously satisfied.
Just like that, the dark eyes reflected the deep blue spring eyes, and they smiled at each other.
Afterwards, the two of them began to make plans in tacit understanding.
"The concentration of demons in Changkong City is not as high as imagined, and the Honkai beasts and the dead soldiers born there are not that powerful, so according to my original idea, I wanted to let the students of our academy go there in groups to gain some experience.
"Let them, who have only been facing simulated training all day, face a real collapse. Even if it can't sharpen their strength, it will at least sharpen their spirit. Lu Mian, do you have any ideas?" Theresa expressed her thoughts and looked forward to Lu Mian's thoughts or additions.
Lu Mian just narrowed his eyes slightly and did not rush to reply.
This is the difference in opinions caused by their different perspectives and cognitions.
Theresa's starting point might be good. She hopes that the students of St. Freya Academy, who are like flowers in a greenhouse, can see blood and thereby improve their abilities, thus increasing their chances of survival in the future.
But in Lu Mian's opinion, this is a collapsed world, and the probability of survival of the students of St. Freya Academy and people all over the world has never depended on themselves.
It depends on how long it takes him to grow to the point where he can crush Honkai to the ground.
If he can't do it, then we'll have to see how Otto, Kallen and the other shining people perform after they've traveled across countless worlds.
In the end, it all depends on the growth rate of Qi Tian Da Sheng, Herrscher of Fan, and Motoroo Duck.
Lu Mian knew clearly that if he had not encountered the system after traveling through time, there would be no way he would have survived the third collapse. This was a fact that he and other ordinary people had to accept.
As for those lucky or unfortunate individuals who have the ability to adapt to Honkai energy, how far can they go?
It can’t be far.
It must be admitted that this collapsed world never writes and presents the stories of everyone, but the stories of the few who can stand out from it.
This is how the Immaculate Bishop and the Scarlet Saint joined forces to bring the world into light;
This is how the game god weaves dreams and creates the world.
The world is like this today.
Although Lu Mian did not see the true ending of the game "Honkai Impact 3rd" before traveling through time, this ending would definitely not be difficult to guess.
It's nothing more than the wonderful performances of Old Ancestor Kevin or the Monkey King Qi Tian, and at most a few more prominent characters.
It can't be that the people rushed in front of the Herrscher, holding sickles and hammers to destroy the Houkai, right?
That's quite interesting to be honest...
Back to the point, Theresa's idea of using Changkong City to train the students of St. Freya Academy is no less than training martial arts on a battlefield full of tanks.
