Necromancer, but pre-collapse civilization

　Not long ago, she had considered entering a hibernation pod to wait for the spacecraft to complete its long journey back to Earth.

　However, Vervier told her directly that the Charon-class light corvettes were not equipped with hibernation pods at all.

　This is one of the reasons why the expert wanted to explain some of the performance parameters of this warship to Gretsch in detail.

　Another reason was to let her know the time required for the journey.

　Since Möbius had already vouched for Gretchen, Vervie was also willing to give this talented young painter a chance.

　An opportunity to integrate into their camp.

　"So, how do you usually manage your time during such a week-long flight?"

　Sensing the kindness emanating from the expert, Gretchen's purple eyes sparkled with curiosity and anticipation.

　"In fact, every week's voyage on the Charon-class light corvette is full of surprises and fun."

　Vervi's voice is soft and charming.

　"You can choose to immerse yourself in the vast ocean of knowledge in the virtual library and explore it; or you can go to the gym to exercise and maintain your best condition."

　She began to vividly depict every detail of Gretsch's journey.

　"Of course, we won't miss out on the joy of enjoying delicious food."

　"Thanks to the application of space expansion magic, the Charon-class light frigates have a luxurious food reserve, enough to satisfy all our taste bud needs."

　Just as Velvet was vividly describing the various pleasures that might occur during the voyage, Gretsch listened with rapt attention, as if she were already in that ocean full of surprises and joy, when a sudden voice interrupted their conversation.

　"Vilvie, there's an emergency that needs your help."

　As the necromancer's partner, the expert immediately recognized that the steady and powerful voice belonged to her lover.

　"Moros, what exactly happened?"

　Sensing the seriousness and urgency in Morros's words, Velvi's smile vanished instantly.

　"An uninvited guest has come to our door."

　Gazing out at the dark outer space of space, the necromancer gave a brief reply.

　With his formidable strength, which was only one step away from the limit of the demigod level, coupled with the assistance of the constant spells on his body, Moros could clearly sense that a stream of light was approaching them at an astonishing speed.

　He's at the demigod level, but there's still a considerable gap between him and the limits of demigodhood...

　The necromancer quickly assessed the strength and rank of the newcomer in his mind, and his tense nerves relaxed slightly.

　Nevertheless, he still decisively ordered Velvey to maneuver the Charon-class light frigate away from the battlefield where a demigod war was about to break out.

　Despite the Charon-class light frigates' ability to easily defeat Arkships in fleet battles, this class of warship remains extremely vulnerable in demigod-level combat.

　Having understood her lover's intentions, the expert didn't say anything more.

　She strode confidently toward the control panel on the bridge.

　There, the artificial soul aggregate that controls the warship awaits her command.

　With practiced ease, Velvi controlled the various complex systems, working alongside the artificial soul aggregate to steer the steel behemoth, which weighed nearly 100,000 tons, flexibly adjusting its course to ensure that it could get away from the dangerous area where a demigod war was about to break out as quickly as possible.

　"Moros, we..."

　Seeing this, Alicia was about to speak when she was interrupted by Moros's gentle yet firm voice.

　"Don't worry, Ellie."

　The necromancer's voice was full of confidence.

　He was well aware of his own abilities and had absolute confidence in his judgment.

　"The attackers are far weaker than me, there won't be any problems."

　Seeing Morros's confident demeanor, Alicia and Eden exchanged a knowing glance.

　Without needing to say more, they already understood each other's feelings.

　They knew Moros inside and out, understanding the meaning behind every subtle expression on his face.

　This time, Alicia and Eden could clearly sense that Moros was not feigning composure, but was genuinely confident.

　So they chose to remain silent, transforming their deep trust and unwavering support into a silent strength, standing quietly behind Moros, becoming his strongest backing.

　"Grandma Mebius, is there anything I can do to help?"

Chapter 750 Clash of Demigods

　When Gretchen asked the question, a faint smile appeared on Möbius's lips.

　She knew that little Gretchen had awakened from the lies woven by Dr. May and the Firemoth and no longer blindly regarded Moros as an enemy.

　This is obviously something to celebrate.

　However, Mebius was well aware of the current situation.

　So she answered softly in a very natural manner.

　"We just need to evacuate with the ship and ensure our own safety."

　Möbius has an exceptionally clear understanding of his own abilities.

　She knew that in battles at the demigod level, apart from her exceptional survival skills, she had absolutely nothing to offer.

　Given this, with her extraordinary wisdom, how could she not understand that not adding unnecessary burdens to the necromancer was the greatest help she could give him?

　After hearing Möbius's answer, the blue-haired girl nodded.

　"Ah."

　Seeing that the Charon-class light frigate carrying Alicia and the others had begun to retreat, Moros shifted his attention away from it and focused intently on the streak of light that was approaching at an alarming speed.

　Although he was confident he could defeat his opponent, the necromancer always kept in mind the principle that "even a lion uses its full strength to hunt a rabbit."

　Instant cast spell: Death Avatar!

　With a total consumption of 4500 points of magic power, a colossal death dragon with a wingspan of over two hundred meters appeared out of thin air in front of the necromancer.

　"Roar!!!"

　After a silent roar, the dragon of death, along with its summoner, faced the rapidly approaching streak of light.

　As a legitimate necromancer of the Necropolis faction, Moros is not an easy character to get along with.

　He would never allow his opponent to launch an attack if the opponent clearly had ill intentions.

　As the distance between them gradually decreased, the true face of the streak of light finally came into Moros's view.

　She was a young woman who perfectly blended elegance and sexiness.

　Her long, flowing gray hair cascaded down her back like a waterfall, and her clothes were elaborate and exquisite, with every detail revealing her exceptional taste.

　She was wearing a high-necked black long-sleeved bodysuit, the tight design of which perfectly accentuated her graceful figure.

　A diamond-shaped cutout is cleverly designed in the middle of the chest, vaguely revealing the snow-white and delicate skin underneath, adding an alluring touch.

　The girl also wore a white cloud-shaped shawl decorated with peacock feathers, which added to her noble and mysterious aura.

　She wore a strapless mini-dress with a right-slanted cut over her lower abdomen, perfectly showcasing her alluring curves.

　Her right leg was clad in black trousers, the cuffs slightly parted, revealing glimpses of semi-transparent black stockings underneath.

　On the other hand, the left leg was not wearing pants, but instead the leg covered by semi-transparent black stockings over the knee was completely exposed.

　Vita?!

　Upon recognizing the beautiful and mysterious girl, Moros's heart skipped a beat.

　Having undergone four leaps in life level, the necromancer has gained wisdom as profound as the ocean.

　This wisdom allowed him to clearly recall every detail of his past life.

　Based on his memories as a captain in his previous life, Moros knew that during this period, Vita was merely an agent of [Sa], a role responsible for carrying out [Sa]'s will.

　In other words, every action she takes at this moment may be being manipulated behind the scenes by [Suo].

　So, [Suo] has already set his sights on me?

　As he pondered this inwardly, the necromancer unconsciously tightened his grip on the [Underworld Staff].

　Admittedly, compared to the Cocoon of the End, the power of [Sara] may seem insignificant.

　But this does not mean that the strength of [Sā] can be easily ignored.

　In Moros's view, this powerful being who was upgraded from a Freusian (Venusian) was no less powerful than the Herrscher of the End who fell under his staff.

　It is worth noting that the Herrscher of the End in this era is not Kiana, the Herrscher of the End in the original world, who has already embraced the Cocoon of the End.

　Although the Herrscher of the End in this era possesses astonishing strength at the limit of the demigod level, enough to crush a group of heroes including [Karma] Kevin, and even be able to cleanse the surface of a planet and destroy human civilization on her own, she is essentially just one of the many "mass-produced products" used by the Cocoon of the End to filter civilizations.

　It is obvious that mass-produced products are not qualified to truly "embrace" the final cocoon.

　Getting back to the point, realizing that [Sola]'s gaze was now focused on him, Moros naturally dared not be careless in the slightest.

　Although with his strength he wouldn't fear [So] who wields immense power, [So]'s strength, comparable to the Herrscher of the End, is no joke.

　Even though the lack of extraordinary powers like [Time] and [Space] makes [Sarva]'s mechanics not as unsolvable as the Herrscher of the End, this...

　The immense energy wielded by this powerful being made her numerically superior to most of the necromancer's previous opponents.

　However, this refers to the word "娑" itself.

　As for Vita, who was rapidly approaching him and the incarnation of death, Moros did not believe she could be compared to [Sa].

　Of course, Vita, as a demigod-level powerhouse, coupled with the omniscient power granted by [Sa], is not to be underestimated.

　However, compared to a necromancer who possesses numerous trump cards and is only one step away from the limit of demigod, this level of strength is still insufficient.

　There is a world of difference between even the greatest demigods.

　Even though Vita, as [Sa]'s agent, possesses the power of [Omniscience], her fundamental attributes ultimately make it difficult for this power to exert a force sufficient to threaten Moros.

　Since you dare to cause me trouble, then let me see for myself what you're really capable of.

　With a silent command, Moros unleashed a dense barrage of magical arrows using the super magic techniques of [Instant Spellcasting] and [Multi-Spellcasting].

　At the same time, driven by his will, the enormous dragon of death also let out a silent yet awe-inspiring roar.

　With that roar, the unit skill called [Fear of Death] silently enveloped the rapidly approaching gray-haired girl.

　As a powerful being at the demigod level, Vita was naturally not to be defeated so easily.

　With the blessing of the power of "omniscience", she seemed to have the insight to foresee the future.

　Amidst the dense barrage of countless magical arrows, Vita nimbly weaved through the chaos, each turn and leap precise and accurate, skillfully dodging all the magical energy arrows.

　As for the [Fear of Death] that covers almost the entire star field and attacks indiscriminately, Vita was already prepared.

　She mobilized the Honkai energy within her body, releasing an energy field to firmly protect herself within it, attempting to use this to resist the large-scale AOE attack from the incarnation of death.

Chapter 751 Fierce Battle

　The fear of death surged like a tidal wave, carrying a chilling stillness and despair, attempting to erode Vita's mind.

　However, Vita, with her precognitive abilities granted by the power of "Omniscience," had already foreseen the activation of this unit's skill.

　The energy field she released successfully transferred some of the negative effects of the "fear of death" into the surrounding cosmic space.

　Yes, only a portion.

　The necromancer summons the Death Dragon through the legendary spell "Death Avatar" at the cost of a great deal of magic power; it is a true demigod-level force.

　Although compared to other superhumans of the same level, the Death Avatar, which is essentially a magical summon, is at the bottom in terms of combat power.

　But no matter how low it ranks, it is still a demigod, and every attack it makes contains power that can shake the heavens and the earth.

　Moreover, the fear of death is not just an attack of negative energy; it also cleverly incorporates psychological impact.

　Faced with such a wide-range, all-encompassing AOE skill, even the strong evasion ability granted by the power of [Omniscience] cannot completely prevent attacks.

　Having keenly observed the almost imperceptible fluctuations in Vita's expression under the onslaught of the "fear of death," Moros gained a deeper understanding of the true power of her "omniscient" authority.

　Almighty power, but not invincible...

　Having made this judgment, the necromancer's mind stirred slightly.

　Indeed, he has now transformed into a vampire lord, possessing cellular-level immortality and mastering numerous teleportation spells such as [Dimensional Journey], [Advanced Teleportation], and [Town Portal], ensuring he won't be helpless and trapped in a desperate situation if his opponent closes the distance.

　Even so, Moros was still unwilling to engage in a dangerous and unpredictable close-quarters battle with a demigod-level powerhouse like Vita.
