Collapse: A little shock to the card world

Yuan Yu strode over one by one and covered Chu Yue's mouth.

"Sis! My sister! Calm down, don't say anything outrageous!"

Chu Yue slapped Yuan Yu's hand away in annoyance, glanced at the others around her who looked slightly frightened, and couldn't help but purse her lips.

"Alright, that's it..."

Yu, you did a great job.

Go with your idea, I absolutely support you!

Since we're setting up a lab, I'll go find a few old friends to come over!

Chu Yue left excitedly, and Yuan Yu, feeling somewhat ashamed, went to pick up Mebius.

With things having progressed to this point, Yuan Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Everything is moving in a positive direction... I'm saved!"

Arriving at the gate of a university, Yuan Yu leaned against a tree and waited quietly.

A short while later, I felt a familiar coolness in my lower back.

Yuan Yu's lips twitched, and he turned around to look behind him with annoyance.

"Give."

Wearing a wide-brimmed hat, Möbius calmly handed over a bottle of chilled beverage.

"... "

Yuan Yu looked at the bottle of beverage, and swallowed the words that were about to come out.

Taking the drink, Yuan Yu led her away from the school, saying with some excitement...

"Alright, it won't be long before you step onto your own battlefield!"

"You seem more excited than I am."

Mebius didn't quite understand where the man's excitement came from.

This is something I should be happy about.

“Ahem~

Actually, everyone was very excited, not just me…

"A moth drawn to fire?"

"Yes! You're our precious baby now!"

"... "

Two weeks later, the dedicated research team for the Fire Moth was officially established.

Chuyue also demonstrated an amazing background, directly bringing in two leading researchers to join the team. With the addition of other researchers, this fledgling laboratory had nearly 50 people.

Mebius only showed a little of his skills, but it amazed the two masters, who immediately accepted him as their closed-door disciple and imparted to him high-level knowledge that was almost impossible to obtain outside.

Everything was on track, and Yuan Yu's rank within the organization was raised to the same level as Chu Yue.

Yuan Yu suspected that this was related to Chu Yue, since at this time the forces behind the Fire Moth did not pay much attention to this organization.

However, the bigger the boss's background, the better, so he can lie back and wait for Mebius to increase his value.

Afterwards, Yuan Yu, as if causing trouble, offered Mebius some wildly imaginative ideas.

Then they were kicked out of the lab, and a sign was posted saying "No Feathers or Dogs Allowed."

But it doesn't matter, the direction has been given, all that's left is to trust Möbius's clever little brain.

After years of wasting his life, Yuan Yu finally received his first mission.

An investigation task…

"Huh? A mission? Me?"

Yuan Yu sat in a corner of the training field, looking at the message coming through the communicator with a bit of confusion.

After all these years, he still didn't know he had a mission!

"Fine, it's a mission then. At least it was issued by the boss himself."

With a sigh, Yuan Yu got up and began to search for Chu Yue, swaying unsteadily.

The early stages of the Fire-Chasing Moth... no! It should be its precursor, were like a detective agency.

All that can be done is to conduct an investigation…

Through years of research, Yuan Yu discovered that these people's research on Honkai was still in the stage of spreading infectious diseases.

They believe it is a type of germ, but the effects it causes are somewhat terrifying.

What they had to do was go to the site of the Honkai outbreak and conduct on-site research and documentation.

However, all these years have passed peacefully, and he had almost forgotten about this incident.

The thought of facing the collapse sent chills down Yuan Yu's spine.

Sending a group of detectives to study the Honkai Beasts, which are even more terrifying than wild beasts, up close?

There is even Honkai energy that is invisible to the naked eye?

Die, die, die!

Yuan Yu was somewhat resistant, her steps hesitant as if she were taking a stroll.

As a result, Chuyue came to our door directly!

They directly pulled and tugged at him.

"I know you have doubts, but this is something every member of the organization has to go through."

"We'll at least go through the mission process once, don't worry, there's nothing dangerous~"

After some back and forth, Yuan Yu was still dragged onto the pirate ship.

In a luxury van, Yuan Yu took small bites of ice cream from a freezer and stared at the woman opposite him with a strange expression.

"Sister Yue...is this what you mean by the organization lacking resources?"

"You didn't embezzle it all, did you?"

When Yuan Yu first saw the car, he didn't think much of it, but once he got inside, he saw the luxurious leather sofas and the built-in refrigerator, among other things that shouldn't be in a car.

He then realized that the car might be worth a little bit more than expected...

Want to drive a luxury car on a mission?

So luxurious?

Chu Yue took a sip of red wine and rolled her eyes when she heard that she had embezzled money.

"What's so bad about that? Look out the window for yourself..."

"Hmm? That's not all the greedy stuff!"

Yuan Yu was startled and turned to look out the window.

The surrounding area was already a wasteland, and it looked like no one had ever been there.

At the edge of the sky, countless tiny black dots appeared and disappeared, seemingly magnified slightly.

Yuan Yu took out a pair of binoculars from a box next to him, rolled down the car window, and looked at the small black dots.

"Holy crap! A helicopter? No, wait! What's that big, thick thing down there?"

Cannonballs?

military helicopter!

so much!"

"Look down a little further~"

Chu Yue's playful voice rang in his ears, and Yuan Yu subconsciously lowered the binoculars a little.

As a result, he saw thick smoke billowing at the horizon. After slightly adjusting his binoculars, Yuan Yu could only see one after another of these massive metal vehicles speeding towards him.

Armored vehicles, tanks...

Yuan Yu's lips twitched as he looked at Chu Yue with a puzzled expression.

Chu Yue smiled and, for once, straightened her back.

"Although our organization has nothing, we can still manage to mobilize these most basic resources..."

Otherwise, how could we, with our skinny arms and legs, possibly be a match for those mutated monsters?

"6..."

Seeing this, Yuan Yu felt a little relieved.

Although the Fire Moth seems to be not very powerful now, its authority is surprisingly high, and it can even mobilize the army.

However, Yuan Yu suddenly wondered if such a large-scale operation was meant to deal with a Herrscher.

If they were truly Herrschers, these would be nothing more than a drop in the ocean!

He asked Chuyue with some trepidation.

"So, Sister Yue, what exactly is our mission this time?"

Even the army has been mobilized; will another city be destroyed?

"Don't panic. This is just an investigation mission; there might not be any danger. Those troops are just on the sidelines."

Chuyue downed the red wine in her glass in one gulp, then threw the glass out the window with a hint of disgust, before taking out a bottle of white wine to rinse her mouth.

After clicking her tongue, she sent an encrypted message to Yuan Yu via communicator.

"I've sent you the information, take a look."

Remember not to spread this around. Everything about the disaster must be kept secret! It would be terrible if it caused panic…

"Mmm...okay, sis!"

Yuan Yu immediately took out his communicator, opened the file, and after multiple authentications, the contents were finally displayed.

(The research institute detected unusual energy fluctuations in the area around the town of "Vostok-51", which are suspected to be precursors to a special Honkai disaster...)

The information is scarce; the only accompanying image is an aerial view, showing a small town centered around a large area shrouded in a pale red light.

The marked red area is the so-called energy anomaly zone.
