Upon seeing the woman he recognized being harassed, Bai Zhe naturally wouldn't stand idly by; he immediately joined forces with the other party to beat down all the troublemakers.
But at that moment, Himiko, fueled by alcohol, mistook Hakutetsu for a malicious flirt and threw a punch at the Demon King.
Then, the result was obvious.
Himiko, who was just an ordinary person and at most a king of soldiers, was directly pinned to the ground by Bai Zhe and then knocked unconscious with a chop to the neck.
When Himiko woke up the next day, she was in an unfamiliar hotel.
Upon waking up and hearing Bai Zhe's explanation, and with Mebius as a witness, Himiko, knowing she was in the wrong, immediately apologized to Bai Zhe.
Then, because of her skills, she was invited to join the Fire Moth and gradually became the team leader she is today.
Their relationship gradually evolved from drinking buddies to their current openly romantic one.
That's why this woman was so bold.
When Bai Zhe saw Himiko leaning over, he opened the message sent by Mebius in front of her. After glancing at it briefly, he explained to her, "It's about the source of this disaster."
"It's because the rapidly rising Honkai energy completely altered the genes and elemental structure of living beings, turning humans into monsters and making this place look like it does now."
However, the news did not report on the cause of the monster's formation the following day.
However, two new terms have emerged in the Fire-Chasing Moths: Death Warriors and Honkai Beasts.
The former is a non-human monster formed by Honkai energy, while the latter is a monster formed from animals infected with Honkai!
However, neither the assassins nor the Honkai Beasts are as powerful as human beings can fight against.
Even this single disaster in Bonn required heavy weaponry from humans to resolve.
Even the most ordinary Honkai Beasts have exceptionally hard skin. Through dissection and analysis, it was discovered that Honkai Beasts are composed of silicon and Honkai energy, making them impossible to damage with ordinary firearms.
These monsters do not need to eat; they exist solely for the purest form of destruction!
After discovering the Honkai Beasts, Mebius became fascinated and wanted to explore more about the nature of Honkai, seemingly hoping to use Honkai to allow humanity to achieve eternal life in the physical form!
As Mebius's obsession with Honkai energy grew, the experiments at the research institute became increasingly dangerous, and the place gradually became deserted.
However, not long after, when the Firemoth was recruiting a new batch of members, a college student named Blanca, with sky-blue hair and who had just graduated, joined her laboratory and, with the help of her youthful energy, managed to keep up with Möbius's pace!
However, this period of good fortune did not last long. Just as Mebius's research on collapse was getting on track, a year or two later...
Another collapse has occurred.
This time, the monsters spawned by the Honkai were more powerful than ever before, and neither guns nor shells were effective against them.
This monster can recreate all the weapons that attacked her and use them to damage humans.
Furthermore, having witnessed how easily the Firemoth had ended a Honkai a few years ago, the United Nations, without consulting the Firemoth this time, directly dispatched a large number of troops, but paid a heavy price in casualties for it!
Chapter Twelve: The Herrscher! (Please subscribe, vote, and give flowers!)
At the United Nations, a somewhat overweight, blond middle-aged man sat in his chair. Upon seeing footage from the battlefield showing a third of the UN troops being wiped out in an instant, he angrily slammed his hand on the table.
"First of all, what kind of monster is this?!"
Neither tanks nor airplanes or artillery could harm them. In fact, after these weapons attacked, the enemy could conjure up airplanes and tanks out of thin air and completely suppress the UN forces.
Not only that, the enemy simply stands there, and a huge horde of Honkai beasts will appear around them, engulfing their soldiers like an ocean!
"Uh... I don't know either..."
“This must be an angel sent by God to judge mankind. Lord, please forgive my sins.”
"Shut up, you old charlatan! This isn't the place for you to preach!"
"I said from the beginning that I would consult with the Moths before sending troops."
"That's a place that specializes in Honkai energy research, a place at the forefront of the times in technology. That man definitely knows what it is!"
"Immediately request support from the Fire-Chasing Moths."
"No, if we ask the Firemoths for help, what will all of humanity think of us? Are we just useless cowards who can't even stop a disaster?!"
"Nuclear bomb, that's right, use a nuclear bomb. If we use a high-yield one to catch it off guard, it should be able to kill this thing perfectly."
"Are you crazy? The people in that city haven't been completely evacuated yet!"
"I'm not crazy. Everything I've done is for the United Nations, for the future of all humanity—"
"Let's vote by raising our hands now!"
However, in reality, there are many people in this world who hold positions without doing anything. The reason they can stand above others is not because of their abilities, but because of good luck.
Therefore, in times of panic, most of these people are also opportunists.
After someone raised an opinion, and another person followed suit, they all raised their hands in support.
Finally, the tactical nuclear missile, carrying flames, transformed into a meteor from its silo and landed in the city where the Fire-Chasing Moth had been prophesied to be born, a city known as the Herrscher.
As the mushroom cloud rose, most of the city was instantly engulfed by the impact and fire, turning it into ruins.
Minutes later, the entire city was in a state of utter devastation.
Where the nuclear bomb fell, there was a huge crater, where a girl lay, her body covered in signs of Honkai damage. Her life had ended in that instant.
Now, all that remains in the world is a cold corpse!
Soon after, one after another aerial warships bearing the mark of the Fire-Chasing Moth appeared in the sky.
Wearing combat gear and carrying a deep red nuclear-powered sword, Himiko leaped from the deck a hundred meters above the ground.
More followed, including warriors equipped with the latest anti-Honkai armor developed by the Fire Moth.
Standing in the crater created by the nuclear bomb, Himiko gazed at the devastated land not far away, covered in flames, and a trace of sorrow appeared in her beautiful golden eyes.
"In the end, we were still a step too late."
After sighing as she looked at the girl's corpse at her feet, Himiko instantly snapped out of her somber mood and ordered the descending Moth Warriors, "Everyone, begin the rescue immediately!"
"Yes!"×n
Just then, Mebius, who saw the girl's corpse through the miniature camera on Himiko's body, immediately connected to the radio on her body.
"Himiko, no matter what method you use, I want you to take this corpse to the Moth of Fire."
"With abilities beyond common sense and the ability to control Honkai Beasts, I think she must be the Herrscher that Bai Zhe mentioned."
Because Mebius's experiments had become increasingly horrific over the years, Himiko, knowing how this corpse would be treated once it entered his laboratory, paused for a second before answering:
"......I see."
Just as Himiko had finished packing the bodies and summoned the warships to transport them,
The United Nations also arrived, and the situation instantly became tense.
The leading officer pointed his gun at Himiko and shouted, "Don't move! This is a UN trophy! Put it down!"
"That's right, you killed the Herrscher, but it came at the cost of the lives of many people in this city."
Faced with Himiko's accusations, the leading officer immediately resorted to sophistry.
"These are necessary sacrifices in order to combat the calamity!"
However, Himiko scoffed at the other party's answer.
"Did you ask these people when you dropped the nuclear bombs?"
After speaking, the red-haired Valkyrie of the battlefield even slung her greatsword over her shoulder...
Her attitude of "I'm taking the Herrscher's corpse away this year, what can you do to me?" immediately enraged the leading officer.
But before he could issue the order, the notification from the United Nations had already arrived.
What should have been a lengthy process was instead disrupted by a certain demon king sitting in the United Nations, who directly had the leader there make a radio call and issue an order.
The army was ordered to stop interfering with the moths' work.
Although the officer who heard this was unaware of the situation on the other side, he could only swallow his anger and accept the order, watching helplessly as the Fire Moth took the Herrscher's body back.
Meanwhile, at the UN symposium, the man who hung up the phone was none other than the blond middle-aged man who had previously activated a tactical nuclear missile to eliminate the Herrscher.
Now, he has completely changed his attitude, showing great respect to Bai Zhe, who is sitting at the very end of the table.
"Are you satisfied with this?"
He, who was originally full of vigor, became like a sycophant, doing his best to please Bai Zhe, and the others present echoed him.
Because you have no choice but to please them.
The fact that the other party swaggered in just now means that the guards outside have all been dealt with, and their lives are now in the other party's hands.
Even if Bai Zhe made them crawl like dogs, most people would absolutely not say a word and become the Demon King's lapdogs!
"So be it."
Despite the shrike's flattery, Bai Zhe ignored it, leaving only this sentence before departing.
Everyone present immediately showed expressions of relief upon seeing this. Some dared to open the door to see what was happening outside, only to find that the guards had disappeared.
It seemed like they were the only ones left here; the entire space was eerily quiet!
Then, the next day, all the UN members of parliament who had supported the use of nuclear weapons the day before, including Shrike, resigned, causing a huge uproar around the world.
The news that the source of this disaster was a girl infected with Honkai disease also spread quickly.
For a time, everyone was in danger, and those infected and broken became the targets of expulsion, falling to the lowest rungs of society.
But there are still kind-hearted people in this world who are willing to take in these poor souls and give them a final warmth in their lives.
Chapter Thirteen: Blanca, the bystander caught in the crossfire! (Please subscribe, vote, and give flowers!)
Inside Mobius' laboratory.
Mebius stood before the operating table, wearing a protective suit that shielded him from Honkai infection, and dissected the Herrscher's corpse.
Outside the thick glass, Blanca was documenting the experiment.
Not long after dissecting the Herrscher, before he even had a sip of hot water, Bai Zhe arrived at the laboratory.
"My dear Miss Mébius, what were the results of the autopsy?"
Upon hearing this, Mebius immediately turned around and said to Bai Zhe, "As you predicted, a high-purity Honkai energy crystal was born in the corpse."
After speaking, the beautiful and charming researcher suddenly asked Bai Zhe, "By the way, how did you know this? Or do you really have the ability to foresee the future, like the legendary immortals on the Divine Continent who can predict the future?"
When faced with Möbius's question, Bai Zhe did not choose to answer directly, but instead said to her mysteriously, "Aren't you a scientist? You should explore this question yourself."
Maintaining an air of mystery around such a woman is the best way to pique her interest.
Mebius was not angry at Bai Zhe's answer.
12 Just as Bai Zhe had thought, she became even more interested in it, and in her spare time from research, she would try to explore Bai Zhe's true secret!
Then, Mebius slowly stood up, holding the report of the Herrscher's autopsy in his hand, and placed it on Bai Zhe's chest in a rather ambiguous manner.
Those eyes, with their two colors, like a rainbow, revealed a serpentine gaze fixed on its prey, which perfectly aroused Bai Zhe's desire to conquer.
Feeling the heat emanating from Bai Zhe, Mebius revealed a charming yet dangerous smile, and at the same time exhaled softly, "This is your report card. Look how hard I've worked, shouldn't you give me a little reward?"
Upon seeing this, Bai Zhe naturally embraced the soft, fragrant waist of the woman in his arms.
Just as Mebius and Bai Zhe were flirting, Blanca, who was tidying up documents nearby, muttered something under her breath.
“Um…Doctor…”
But in the end, she didn't say it.
Because whether it's Mebius, who is her direct superior, or Bai Zhe, who is her direct superior's direct superior, the entire Moth Chaser is essentially the other party's dictatorship!
So she was afraid that if she disturbed the mood of these two important people now, she would be fired tomorrow for entering with her left foot first.
Although the work at Moth Chaser is busy and often requires overtime, the compensation is undeniably quite high.
Not only are the salaries here generous, generally more than double those of their peers, but long-term employees who have worked here for five years can also apply for a three-bedroom apartment within the first to third ring roads, based on their individual contributions.
In addition, there are monthly leave and annual leave, but these holidays are basically irrelevant to her as a researcher.
Overall, however, the treatment of employees at Moth is far better than that of other companies and even the United Nations.
