Necromancer, but pre-collapse civilization

　"Therefore, I will do everything in my power to prevent this from happening."

　A hint of anticipation crept into Mebius's words.

　But in her snake-like eyes, which were a gradient of pink and green, there was an indescribable light that clearly conveyed her deep-seated determination to support China.

　"You will too, Hua... right?"

　"..."

　After a moment of silence, Hua spoke.

　"Dr. Möbius, what exactly... are you here for?"

　"me……"

　Mebius suddenly moved closer to Hua, his snake-like eyes reflecting Hua's evasive gaze.

　"Of course I'm here to continue what we were doing before."

　"..."

　Seeing that Hua had fallen silent again, Mebius continued.

　"Our experiment isn't over yet, Hua."

　"You are the most suitable candidate, and I need your... further assistance."

　"..."

　Hua sighed and closed his eyes.

　"When?"

　"Now."

　Just as Mebius successfully persuaded Hua to lie on the experimental table again and restart her research, on the other side, Velvet was holding Moros's hand tightly, leading him into the shipyard deep inside her research base.

　"Moros, look, this is the [Moon Throne] that the Firemoth commissioned me to build, and its carrier ship."

　The Moon Throne is an extremely advanced weapon system. Its unique feature is that it can efficiently convert Honkai energy into other forms of energy (thermal energy), thereby releasing powerful destructive force.

　As early as when the eleventh Great Collapse had just subsided, Dr. May, on behalf of the Moth of Fire organization, placed two crucial orders with Velvet for the construction of spaceships.

　One of the orders was customized for Project Ark, requiring the construction of a spaceship capable of carrying the last seeds of human civilization to ensure the continuation of human civilization in extreme circumstances.

　The other order was for a ship specially designed and built to carry the Moon Throne system.

　At this moment, this magnificent behemoth was standing right in front of Moros.

　"Based on my calculations and the information we found about the Herrscher of the End in the Moon Temple, the Moon Throne system on this warship can theoretically consume more than 30% of the Herrscher of the End's Honkai energy..."

　As she spoke, Velvi handed him a tablet, which was covered with detailed data about the Moon Throne system and its carrier ships.

　She then continued to explain the Moon Throne system and every detail of the ship carrying it to Moros in a pleasant and clear voice.

　"If the Fire-Chasing Moths were willing to operate the Moon Throne system beyond its limits at the cost of completely destroying it, that number could probably double."

　Hearing Vilvi's familiar and pleasant voice, a faint smile appeared on Moros's face.

　Having undergone four leaps in his life level, which surpassed the cognitive processing capabilities of a supercomputer, he completely understood the limits of the Moon Throne system and its carrier ship in just a few seconds.

　Perhaps, in the original world, facing the Herrscher of the End controlled by a mentally challenged AI, this spaceship might indeed be able to achieve the feat described by Velvet.

　However, the ship carrying the Moon Throne system, perched atop the branches of this tree of imaginary numbers, is destined to be unable to replicate such glory.

　The reason is actually quite simple.

　In the original world, the Cocoon of the End did not personally intervene.

　The Herald of the End, who descended on the far side of the moon to deliver the final judgment on the previous civilization, was entirely controlled by an AI that could be described as mentally challenged.

　But on the branches or leaves of this tree of imaginary numbers, thanks to the necromancer's activity, the Cocoon of the End has cast its cold gaze upon this blue planet.

　Faced with the Herrscher of the End, who is personally controlled by the Cocoon of the End, how could the Moon Throne system and its carrier ship possibly hope to reach such a level?

　Having fully grasped the deeper meaning behind the data on the tablet computer handed to him by Velvi, Moros knew very well the true nature of the magnificent spaceship before him.

　The Moon Throne system-equipped ship commissioned by the Fire Moth and built by Velvey is essentially just an enlarged version of the Charon-class light frigate.

　Aside from replacing the original Honkai energy ray cannon that ran the length of the ship with the Moon Throne system, this spaceship is not significantly different from the Charon-class light corvette in its core structure.

　Of course, thanks to the surging energy provided by more shipborne large-scale Honkai energy reactors and the excellent damage resistance brought by the massive hull, this spaceship's survivability on the battlefield is undoubtedly superior to that of the Charon-class light corvette.

　Even so, when facing the Herrscher of the End, who possesses at least the strength of a demigod, this ship carrying the Moon Throne system is merely a single entity.

　It's just a larger target.

　A stupid AI might not know how to avoid attacks, but how could the Herrscher of the End, who is personally controlled by the Cocoon of the End, make such a low-level mistake?

　If an attack misses its target, given the Moon Throne system's slow recharge rate, it is almost impossible for it to launch a second attack before the warship sinks.

Chapter 667 Paris-class Heavy Frigate

　The fact that she could actively divide her thoughts and create eight distinct personalities, all of whom belonged to the realm of genius, demonstrates that Vervi's intelligence is beyond question.

　Although Moros never explicitly stated it, Velvey keenly sensed from his eyes that this man, who was both her lover and her guide on the path of magic, held reservations about the effectiveness of the Moon Throne system and its carrier ship in the face of the Herrscher of the End.

　Therefore, she quickly and naturally concluded her detailed introduction to the Moon Throne system and its carrier ship, and instead summoned a personnel transport vehicle specifically for use within the base.

　In this comprehensive base, hidden deep in the heart of the Victoria Desert and covering an area of ​​over 5 square kilometers, integrating scientific research and industrial manufacturing, traveling on foot is clearly impractical. This is where personnel transport vehicles come in, becoming an indispensable means of transportation.

　While the expert was slightly surprised that the Moon Throne system and its carrier ship failed to ignite Moros's enthusiasm, she didn't take it too seriously.

　After all, on this spaceship that was about to be delivered to the Firemoth, she did not use many of the latest cutting-edge technologies, so it was only natural that she could not resist the Herrscher of the End.

　Vilvi was well aware of the subtle and complex relationship between necromancers and fire-chasing moths.

　She knew that although the two sides were currently fighting side by side and were allies, once the Honkai Trial came to an end, they were likely to go their separate ways or even become enemies.

　In this situation, how could Velvi, who was on the side of the necromancer, possibly devote all her skills to designing and building the spaceship for the Firemoth without reservation?

　However, this does not mean that Vervi will easily give up the idea of ​​surprising her lover.

　“Oh, look at my memory, Morros, come on, let me show you the surprise I’ve prepared especially for you.”

　With a mischievous glint in her pink eyes, the expert spoke with a smile.

　Admittedly, this so-called "surprise"—a newly designed spaceship—has not yet completed its final outfitting work, but its overall progress is already quite impressive. It will be completed in just over ten days.

　For a behemoth with a total mass of nearly 14 tons, such an astonishing construction speed is nothing short of a miracle.

　Originally, Vilvi planned to follow the precedent set by the Charon-class light frigates and wait until all the outfitting details of the warship were completed before boarding the ship with Morlos for a romantic rendezvous under the stars.

　But at this moment, in order not to disappoint her lover, she decided to temporarily change the plan and take him directly to the new warship that was undergoing final outfitting, so that he could witness the surprise she had carefully prepared for him.

　As he boarded the personnel transport vehicle with Vervie, Morros was filled with curiosity and anticipation for the surprise that was about to be revealed.

　"Vilvie, your surprise has really piqued my curiosity and anticipation."

　"Of course, I'm Virvi!"

　Smiling smugly, Virvi's eyes sparkled with confidence and love.

　When she's with her loved one, this expert, who is known for her meticulousness, is willing to show her most authentic and tender side.

　As the transport vehicle slowly drove into the massive dock, the sight before him made Moros involuntarily hold his breath.

　The massive hull gleams with a cool yet captivating metallic luster under the industrial lighting chandeliers installed in the enclosed dock dome. Every deck and every gun barrel is meticulously crafted, revealing the designer's ingenuity and the superb manufacturing process of this advanced shipyard.

　The chibi-style armed dolls were intently engaged in the final adjustments and installations, their figures appearing both professional and efficient amidst their busy work.

　Inside the ship, the advanced navigation system is ready, and the energy compartment housing the large shipborne Honkai energy reactor, along with a series of other complex systems, awaits the final activation command.

　Once the personnel transport vehicle came to a stop, Vivi lightly jumped off, her face beaming with barely suppressed excitement.

　"Moros, look, this is the surprise I prepared for you!"

　Vilvi's eyes sparkled with anticipation as she gripped Moros's hand tightly, as if trying to convey all her joy and expectation to him.

　"This warship was designed and built specifically for you."

　Vervi's voice was filled with pride and joy.

　"It not only incorporates the essence of the Moon Throne system, but also incorporates many cutting-edge technologies that I developed specifically for you. I believe it will become a powerful assistant for you in exploring the universe and fighting against the Honkai."

　As he listened to the expert's introduction, Moros's eyes shone with increasingly fervent anticipation and excitement.

　He slowly stepped off the transport vehicle and walked steadily toward the ship.

　Fingers gently glide over the cold armor plate of the warship

　On the solid metal surface, at this moment, Moros could deeply feel every drop of effort that Velve had poured into this warship, and the deep and sincere love it contained for him.

　At this moment, the steel behemoth standing before him was undoubtedly a stunning masterpiece that perfectly blended power and aesthetics.

　Its overall design ingeniously inherits the unique grandeur and majesty of the Charon-class light corvettes, while Vervier's extraordinary creativity and genius-like improvements are like a stroke of genius, adding a more stunning visual impact and more outstanding performance to this new warship that is not yet completed.

　Just as Morros was immersed in the awe brought by this steel behemoth, a flexible mechanical arm quietly extended from the mechanical backpack on Velvi's back and accurately handed a tablet computer to her hand.

　She smiled slightly and introduced him to Moros.

　"I plan to name this type of warship the Paris-class heavy frigate..."

　After listening to Vervi's detailed explanation, the necromancer gained a clearer understanding of the warship before him.

　As a heavy frigate, the Paris-class made trade-offs in its design, sacrificing some carrying capacity in exchange for a more powerful armament system and armor protection.

　Although its carrying capacity is not as good as that of the Charon-class light frigates, the Paris-class heavy frigates are still able to operate freely in the planetary atmosphere and provide strong fire support for ground forces.

　In the vast expanse of space, this warship can easily deal with long-range attacks from Honkai Beasts or other enemies thanks to its superior speed and maneuverability, and its powerful firepower can inflict damage on enemy ships far exceeding that of the Charon-class.

　Of particular note is that the Paris-class heavy frigates are also equipped with the Verviers' meticulously modified Moon Throne system.

　This innovative design replaces the traditional Honkai energy ray cannon as the axial cannon, adding a more unique and powerful combat capability to the warship.

　In addition to the upgraded Moon Throne system, the Paris-class heavy frigates have achieved more significant improvements in armor protection compared to the Charon-class light frigates.

　The majority of the 40,000-ton increase in mass compared to the Charon-class corvettes is due to enhanced armor protection.

Chapter 668 Virvi's Love and Rescue

　Seeing the gleam in Moros's eyes, the expert felt a surge of indescribable satisfaction.

　She knew that the warship she had painstakingly built with countless efforts and wisdom had finally brought her beloved a pleasant surprise.

　"Moros, what do you think of it?"

　Vervi's tone was tinged with a hint of anticipation and barely perceptible nervousness.

　She longed for Moros to genuinely acknowledge her deep affection.

　Taking a deep breath, Moros shifted his gaze from the warship to Velvi.

　His eyes were filled with undisguised admiration and deep love for Vervière.

　“Vilvie, this is simply amazing. Your wisdom and talent always create miracles that I never expected.”

　Moros's words were warm and sincere.

　Upon hearing these words, a radiant smile bloomed on Vervi's face.

　She walked lightly to Moros's side, gently nestled on his shoulder, and whispered.

　"As long as you like it, everything I do will have meaning."

　Reaching out, his fingertips gently brushed against Velvi's smooth, short hair, half dark green and half brownish-yellow. Morros could clearly feel the tenderness and unwavering faith that Velvi held deep within her heart.

　"Vilvie, thank you so much. Thank you for everything you've done for me."

　Upon hearing this, the expert slowly raised her eyelids and gazed lovingly into Moros's eyes.

　In that instant, the whole world seemed to stand still, leaving only the sound of their heartbeats echoing gently in this warm and sweet atmosphere.

　Just as Velvi was giving Morros a detailed demonstration of her meticulously crafted Paris-class heavy frigate, Sakura, after a difficult battle, finally broke free from Kevin's entanglement and quietly arrived at the outer perimeter of the research institute belonging to Mebius.

　Of course, this also includes Kevin's consideration of not wanting to push too hard.

　After all, they had been comrades-in-arms who fought side by side, and without Mei's explicit orders, he was unwilling to engage in a life-or-death struggle with Ying.

　Gazing at the undead squad patrolling the perimeter of the research institute, a resolute glint flashed in the pale purple eyes of the girl with cherry-blossom hair.

　"Ring, wait for me, your sister is coming to save you right away..."

　As she murmured, Sakura was already poised and ready to unleash her power.

　Her rescue operation.
