Necromancer, but pre-collapse civilization

　The next day, early in the morning.

　Holding Vervie in his arms, Morros witnessed her face-changing performance once again.

　It's obvious that this time, Virvi has come out with a completely new personality.

　Looking at the naked girl in his arms and feeling the smooth touch of his hands, a hint of helplessness and doting flashed in the necromancer's eyes.

　There's no way around it, this is his Vilvie, a treasure girl with eight personalities.

　However, Moros would gladly accept whichever personality of Vilvie he had.

　He knew very well that these different personalities were all real parts of Vilvie's inner self, and were indispensable elements that constituted her complete personality.

　"Moros, we..."

　Vervi parted her red lips slightly, her voice carrying a hint of indescribable shyness and hesitation.

　Before she could finish speaking, a blush suddenly rose to her cheeks, like the morning glow reflecting on peach blossoms, beautiful and captivating.

　Seeing this, Moros gently took her hand, looked at her with tender eyes, and comforted her with a smile.

　"As you can see, Vilvi, there are some things I want to share with you."

　As he spoke, he pulled Vilvie even closer to him.

　Feeling the wonderful touch in her arms, Moros slowly recounted to the conductor the story of his relationship with the expert and the mysterious scholar.

　After listening to Moros's account, the conductor looked up and stared directly into his eyes.

　"So, you're also planning to be with me..."

　“Vilvie, you know me, I will respect your wishes.”

　Without flinching from the conductor's probing gaze, Moros gave his answer with a serious expression.

　"Woo~"

　Upon hearing this, the conductor hesitated for a moment, seemingly pondering her own feelings.

　Then, she sighed softly and a smile appeared on her face.

　"Then I'll give you a chance."

　Her voice carried a hint of playfulness and anticipation.

　Upon hearing this, Moros hugged Vervie tightly, as if he wanted to merge her into his own body.

Chapter 182 The Necromancer Who Watched Coldly

　Mysterious scholar, expert, conductor...

　By the time Morros had calmed down all of Vilvie's anger, a week had passed.

　It was only at this point that Moros had the energy to examine the mountain of reports and documents that had accumulated over this period.

　Since he took over the Australian continent and New Zealand, he has received two detailed reports daily on the situation in both places, as well as a number of other reports.

　At first, Moros was full of curiosity and enthusiasm for these reports, carefully reading and studying each one.

　However, this enthusiasm did not last long; after only a week, he grew tired of the lengthy and repetitive reports.

　After realizing his mediocre abilities in handling government affairs, Moloss gradually became perfunctory in his attitude towards these reports.

　In his view, instead of wasting time on these tedious administrative affairs, it would be better to focus on studying magical knowledge and strive to master the secrets of fifth-level magic as soon as possible.

　The necromancer has never forgotten that his ability to take over the Australian continent and New Zealand was not due to any outstanding political talent or complex network of interests, but to sheer violence and unparalleled powerful spellcasting abilities.

　His true trump card is his ability to force the United Nations to back down, and it is the foundation upon which he stands in the world.

　In this situation, Mauros frequently selected...

　I have already read this, but I will not reply.

　This is why the necromancer's indifferent response did not surprise the powerful figures in Australia and New Zealand when they reported the documents detailing the Third Great Collapse.

　After all, Moros had already shown his detachment from politics on several occasions before this.

　Getting back to the main point, when Moros learned of the impending Third Great Collapse from the mountain of reports, he fell into deep thought.

　The necromancer calmly analyzed the potential benefits and troubles of intervening in this Great Collapse, in order to decide whether he should intervene in this collapsing disaster that was sweeping across the entire East Asia region.

　Moros is a very orthodox necromancer. He will not be swayed by so-called justice or the voice of the people, nor will he allow his own interests to be harmed as a result.

　In his eyes, if intervening in the Third Great Collapse could bring him considerable benefits, then Moros wouldn't mind taking action to eliminate the Third Herrscher and end the Great Collapse.

　However, if this move might bring unforeseen trouble and losses, he would also not hesitate to choose to stay out of it.

　After a long pause, Moros finally made a decision.

　He decided not to get involved in the fiercely contested battle in Changkong City.

　Through detailed reports from the two parliamentarians from Australia and New Zealand on the Moth of Fire, Moloss has gained a very clear understanding of the current state of the Third Great Collapse.

　At the cost of vast sums of money and lives, the Moths of Fire confirmed the powers of the Third Herrscher on the third day after the Great Collapse.

　The power wielded by this apostle of God is essentially the highly potent [electromagnetic manipulation].

　Therefore, this Herrscher who descended upon the world with the Third Great Collapse was given the title of [Herrscher of Thunder] by the Fire Moth.

　As a civilization that has pursued a technological path, human society on this planet has a relatively clear understanding of what electromagnetic manipulation can achieve.

　Don't be fooled by the fact that the current Herrscher of Thunder's use of her powers is still at a rudimentary stage, limited to manipulating lightning and releasing electromagnetic pulses. This is simply because this apostle of God has just been born and her use of her powers is still quite shallow.

　However, as long as the Herrscher of Thunder can deeply develop her powers, then whether it is the incomparably powerful electromagnetic cannon, plasma weapons, or in-depth exploration of electromagnetic force, one of the four fundamental forces of the universe, her power will reach a terrifying new height.

　Therefore, those powerful figures at the top of the human society pyramid, in order to maintain their own interests and order, gave the Firemoth the order to kill the Third Herrscher, the Herrscher of Thunder, as soon as possible.

　On this point, even those opposition lawmakers who originally planned to use the Herrscher of Thunder to eliminate their opponents changed their stance.

　These predators were well aware that once the power of the Herrscher of Thunder was fully developed, the consequences would be unimaginable.

　These powerful figures no longer want to pay a huge price to hire necromancers.

　Although the powerful and wealthy have outwardly accepted the necromancer after the secret war, their deep-seated wariness and fear of Moros have never diminished.

　These powerful figures would never allow his sphere of influence to expand further unless things had reached a critical point.

　Moros was well aware of this.

　He was, after all, a legendary spellcaster who was able to learn and master fourth-level battle spells on his own and develop numerous variant spells; his intelligence was enough to see into the minds of these rulers.

　The necromancer clearly recognized that his relationship with the powerful figures who controlled the direction of human society was both delicate and fragile.

　If he were to actually go to Changkong City and annihilate the Third Herrscher, the Herrscher of Thunder, the reaction of the powerful and wealthy would not be joy, but rather a deeper sense of dread and unease.

　Although these powerful figures wouldn't easily turn against him until they found a way to crack Moros's spatial teleportation method, their apprehension was enough for them to secretly cause him some trouble.

　Therefore, Moros decided to remain uninvolved during the Third Great Collapse, quietly watching the Allied Forces led by the Firemoth fight the Herrscher of Thunder to the death.

　That's right, it's the Allied Forces.

　At present, the Fire Moth does indeed possess some independent military power, but under the constraints of the United Nations, this power remains at the level of a large mercenary group.

　On high-level battlefields where one directly confronts the Herrschers, this level of military force is insufficient.

　Knowing this perfectly well, the powerful and influential granted the Moths of the Flame the authority to form a United Nations force without hesitation.

　Having obtained this permission, the Fire Moth immediately took action.

　With the active cooperation of various local governments, which had also received instructions from the powerful figures at the pinnacle of human society, the Moth Chasing the Flame completed the construction of the Allied Forces with astonishing efficiency.

　What followed was the brutal battle taking place in the Changkong City area.

　Under the meticulous command and coordination of Moth Chaser, the Allied Forces swiftly and systematically arrived at the outskirts of Changkong City via various means of transport, including sea, air, rail, and road, forming a powerful force ready to launch an attack on the Collapsed forces within Changkong City.

　A full-scale offensive.

　At the same time, the aerial offensive against the Herrscher of Thunder did not stop for a moment.

　Even though the air force suffered heavy losses under the massive lightning storm unleashed by the Herrscher of Thunder, they remained steadfast in their posts, showing no sign of retreat.

Chapter 183: The Third Great Collapse Ends

　Having endured two cataclysmic events and a thrilling secret war with necromancers, the human civilization on this planet has gained a deeper understanding of the shortcomings of its own weaponry.

　Realizing their own vulnerability, those in power in human society have unanimously increased their investment in military research and development.

　They certainly didn't do this for the sake of the overt slogan of "ensuring the survival of civilization."

　In reality, the reason these powerful figures strongly support arms development is purely to ensure that the existing international order, which is favorable to their rule, remains stable and does not collapse.

　With the strong support and high regard of the powerful and wealthy, the war technology of human civilization naturally entered a period of rapid development.

　In just six months, the Honkai Energy Electromagnetic Cannon, which had shone brightly in the Second Great Collapse, began to enter the army of Mu Continent and became a new favorite in its equipment lineup.

　Subsequently, several other powerful nations on this planet also successively deployed this terrifyingly powerful long-range firepower weapon.

　This is just the beginning. With the in-depth development and utilization of Honkai energy, human civilization has taken more determined steps on the road of research and development of war technology.

　The tank destroyer, based on a main battle tank chassis reinforced with Honkai energy, is not only equipped with a weakened version of the Honkai energy electromagnetic cannon, but also achieves an unprecedented balance between firepower and mobility.

　The birth of the new generation of Honkai energy engines has given rise to the second generation of Honkai energy enhanced fighter jets capable of flying at terrifying speeds of Mach 4.

　With the help of the powerful Honkai energy electromagnetic cannon, the battleships that had been dormant for a time were successfully revived and their keels were laid in the shipyards of several powerful nations.

　After the Secret Wars ended, humanity's exceptional talent in developing killing machines was on full display.

　At this moment, the Third Herrscher, the Herrscher of Lightning, who has descended upon Changkong City, is deeply experiencing the formidable power of this super-amplified version of human war technology.

　Faced with an overwhelming sea of ​​missiles and heavy bombs, the Herrscher of Thunder unleashed a massive lightning storm to counter them.

　Faced with a barrage of Honkai energy electromagnetic cannons from a Honkai energy-powered battleship at sea, the Herrscher of Thunder fearlessly retaliated with her lightning spear.

　Faced with the overwhelming firepower of the self-propelled Honkai energy electromagnetic cannons arrayed in artillery formation on the outskirts of Changkong City, the Herrscher of Thunder deployed an electromagnetic shield of abnormally high strength.

　As a single-core Herrscher, the Herrscher of Thunder has already demonstrated such astonishing power shortly after her birth, truly deserving of the title of Apostle of God.

　Even with such efforts, the Herrscher of Thunder was no longer able to personally deal with the Honkai energy-enhanced armor clusters that had stormed into the city.

　He is ultimately just a newly born Herrscher, and his ability to wield authority and accumulate Honkai energy is far from the limit that a single-core Herrscher can achieve.

　Perhaps given enough time to grow, the Herrscher of Thunder could, like the Herrscher of the Void before her, suppress the entire human civilization single-handedly.

　But now, the Herrscher of Thunder, surrounded by the Allied Forces in Changkong City, no longer has enough time and space to grow.

　The power of electromagnetism is ultimately less effective than the power of space in restraining modern technological civilization.

　Under the fierce firepower of the coalition forces organized by the Moth of Fire, this apostle of the gods who wielded the power of electromagnetism felt his Honkai energy reserves rapidly draining away like a flood breaking through a dam.

　Despite His relentless destruction of the Allied Forces' heavy equipment and the constant deaths of Allied soldiers at the hands of His Honkai Beasts, the Herrscher of Thunder gradually began to feel overwhelmed.

　The Herrscher of Thunder knew very well that if the fighting continued like this, her own doom was probably just around the corner.

　However, even the Herrscher of Thunder couldn't come up with a way to get out of this predicament.

　There's no way around it; for a Herrscher who hasn't even finished high school, trying to compete in wisdom with the entirety of human civilization is just asking for trouble.

　He sought change in order to reverse the inevitable defeat, not to willingly throw himself to his death.

　Without finding an effective way to break the deadlock, the Herrscher of Thunder could only maintain the current situation and try to ensure that she would not be annihilated immediately.

　Just as the Herrscher of Thunder was racking her brains, seeking a way to change the course of the battle, the Flame Chaser was also deploying more troops into the battlefield of Changkong City.

　Unlike her helplessness when facing the Second Herrscher, the Herrscher of the Void, Moth of the Flame became more and more adept at fighting this Herrscher who descended with the Third Great Honkai.

　Although troops are being lost on the battlefield every moment, the Allied Forces' staff have keenly sensed the gradual weakening of the Herrscher of Thunder's power through the complex battlefield situation.

　Realizing that the hope of defeating the Herrscher was becoming increasingly clear, the Moth's determination to continue investing in the war became even stronger.

　Be more determined.

　They spared no expense, enduring enormous losses, to continuously pressure the Herrscher of Thunder, gradually depleting the Honkai energy she could muster.

　Even in such a desperate situation, the Herrscher of Thunder did struggle.

　He exerted all his strength to explore his powers in the hope of developing a technique that could turn the tide of battle.

　Through tireless efforts, the Herrscher of Thunder did indeed create some incredibly powerful new techniques before the Honkai energy was exhausted, causing considerable losses to the Allied Forces.

　However, for the Allied Forces, backed by the entire human civilization, these losses were merely frightening to look at.

　In reality, this level of loss was not enough to force the coalition forces to retreat.

　Drawing on the experience gained from the Mu Continent military's operation to annihilate the First Herrscher, the Herrscher of Reason, Moth knew exactly how to deploy its troops and how to effectively deplete and ultimately defeat an Apostle of God.

　Just as the Mu Continental Army achieved victory at the cost of enormous human and financial losses, the Fire Moth ultimately succeeded in annihilating the Third Herrscher, the Herrscher of Thunder, through the sacrifice of countless soldiers and the loss of a massive amount of heavy weaponry.

　However, the only drawback was that the Fire Moth was unable to kill Shesa, the serpent-like Honkai Beast that was the companion of the Herrscher of Thunder.
