Necromancer, but pre-collapse civilization

　On the horizon

　The shelter complex, surrounded by a large group of ordinary Honkai Beasts, gradually came into focus in her view.

　"Destroy everything there, my loyal servants!"

　A melodious yet chilling female voice rang out, and the elite Honkai Beasts seemed to receive the most sacred command.

　They roared deafeningly and charged toward the refuge.

Chapter 205 The Revenge of the Storm

　Under the immense power of the Fourth Herrscher, the Herrscher of Wind, the shelter on Stewart Island, which had withstood months of siege by tank-class Honkai Beasts, was torn apart in just a few breaths. The roof was ripped off by the gale, revealing the nobles inside.

　Inside the shelter, the once-sturdy alloy cables snapped in an instant, flashing with blinding blue sparks.

　From the cracked alloy ceiling, stones and alloy fragments rained down, hitting the panicked crowd and splattering blood, accompanied by terrified screams.

　"what--!"

　"Run! Those Honkai Beasts are attacking!"

　Get out of my way!

　"..."

　After witnessing the alloy ceiling of the shelter being torn apart by the raging storm and countless elite Honkai Beasts surging into the underground shelter like a tidal wave, the nobles who were originally immersed in the illusion of being safe were instantly plunged into panic.

　They scurried around like headless flies, desperately searching for what they perceived as a safe hiding place.

　Driven by the instinct for survival, stampedes continue to occur in crowds.

　Many people even went so far as to push down those who stood in their way and then step over their bodies to continue their escape.

　Even the most important figures who were fawning over them just a moment ago are now nothing more than stepping stones under their feet.

　Even in the face of a life-or-death crisis, their status as important figures could not make them back down.

　These deposed elites have no chance to rise again, and even the main underground shelter on Stewart Island has become overcrowded after being crammed with hundreds of elites and their bodyguards.

　In this situation, once a person falls to the ground, they will quickly be trampled into a pulp by those behind them who are also trying to escape.

　However, these actions by the powerful are nothing more than meaningless struggles.

　The moment the alloy ceiling of the shelter was torn apart, they had no way to survive.

　"This...how is this possible? This was built with the most advanced technology and the finest materials..."

　Unlike the wealthy and powerful who fled in panic, the owners of the refuge did not choose to run away.

　the reason is simple.

　He knew all too well how sturdy the shelter he had painstakingly built was; it could withstand several direct hits from a large-caliber Honkai energy electromagnetic cannon.

　The shelter's owner understood that very few things on this planet could destroy this seemingly impregnable shelter in such a short time.

　Specifically, at this point, it could only have been caused by one entity—the Herrscher who descended along with the Great Collapse.

　Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look into the distance, where he saw a figure surrounded by countless Honkai Beasts standing in mid-air.

　At that moment, the owner of the shelter was overwhelmed with endless fear and despair.

　He pointed a trembling finger at the terrifying figure, his voice filled with barely concealed terror.

　"Weird, monster!"

　Before he could even utter those words, a rush-class Honkai Beast charged right in front of the sanctuary's owner.

　The sharp wing blade instantly sliced ​​through his body, cutting him in two at the waist.

　The immense force hurled his body into the air, and blood gushed out like a fountain, staining the surrounding ground red.

　The upper and lower body were separated, and the internal organs and viscera were scattered all over the ground.

　The owner of the shelter at this moment has long lost his former lofty and authoritative demeanor.

　He lay amidst the chaos, covered in blood, his former power and status now seeming utterly pale and powerless.

　It is well known that a person who is cut in half at the waist does not die immediately.

　His consciousness remained within that shattered body, experiencing the unprecedented pain and despair brought about by the execution of being cut in half at the waist.

　Listening to the agonizing cries of the shelter's inhabitants, the Wind Herrscher in the distance revealed a smile on her beautiful face that mixed with a mix of emotions, including bloodlust and glee.

　The apostle of God, who inherited all of Wendy's memories, clearly remembered what the former master of the sanctuary had done to them, the common people.

　Now, seeing him suffer such agonizing torment, she felt a surge of vengeful pleasure.

　Enjoying this pleasure, the Herrscher of Wind murmured as if she were seeking justice for her past self.

　"This is just the beginning. Wendy will take revenge for all the suffering she has endured, double, no, tenfold!"

　As the Herrscher of Wind finished speaking, the Rush-class Honkai Beasts surrounding her seemed to receive some kind of command, becoming even more ferocious.

　They roared and charged at the nobles who were still fleeing in panic, their claws and fangs gleaming coldly in the darkness.

　The massive Honkai Beasts, however, were unable to enter the shelter due to the limited space inside.

　They can only roar from the outside, their massive bodies shaking the entire sanctuary.

　The Herald of the Wind stood silently in mid-air, coldly observing everything.

　There was no trace of sympathy or pity in her eyes, only the burning flames of revenge.

　She clearly remembered that she was once an ant in the eyes of these powerful people, trampled and ravaged at will.

　Now, she finally has the power to trample all those who once hurt her under her feet.

　The Honkai Beasts relentlessly sliced ​​and trampled the bodies of the privileged people who came to this sinful paradise to enjoy their special privileges, tearing them to pieces.

　Blood splattered everywhere, staining the entire shelter red.

　The air was thick with the nauseating stench of blood.

　However, the Herrscher of Wind seemed oblivious to the smell of blood, her face still bearing a cold and cruel smile.

　This revenge has only just begun; she wants to make these powerful and wealthy people taste true despair and pain.

　As time passed, the screams inside the shelter gradually subsided, leaving only the roars of the Honkai Beasts echoing in the air.

　"Ok?"

　Suddenly, the Herrscher of Wind frowned, as if she had received some unexpected information.

　Her gaze pierced through the gaps in the Honkai Beasts, looking into the depths of the shelter.

　There, a familiar figure was struggling to escape the disaster.

　"Ha, that's really unexpected, you're still clinging to life."

　A cold smile curled at the corner of the Wind Herrscher's lips, and a chilling glint flashed in her eyes.

　"Alive? That's perfect. I'll show you how I'll send you step by step into hell!"

　Her voice was icy cold, revealing a deep-seated hatred for that figure.

　Through Wendy's memories, the apostle of God clearly recognized that figure—the powerful man who had ruthlessly plundered her family's wealth, the culprit who had pushed her into an endless abyss.

　Now, Wendy is no longer a lamb to the slaughter. She will take on the role of an avenger and make that powerful man experience firsthand what pain and despair are.

　“Go, and use his fear and despair as the perfect sacrifice for my feast of revenge.”

　The Wind Herald parted her lips slightly and issued the command.

　Upon hearing the sound, the rushing-class Honkai Beasts pounced on the nobleman like hungry wolves.

　Under the claws and fangs of the Honkai Beasts, the nobleman who once controlled Wendy's fate let out a mournful howl.

　But at this moment, all his struggles and pleas seemed so pale, powerless, and meaningless.

Chapter 206 The Attitude of the Moth Chasing the Flame

　Just as the Fourth Herrscher, the Herrscher of Wind, was avenging her predecessor, a girl named Wendy, the most elite anti-Honkai organization on this planet—the Firemoth—also sensed the coming of the Fourth Great Honkai.

　However, after confirming the exact location of the Herrscher of Wind's arrival, the members of the Firemoth Council found themselves, to their dismay, that there was nothing they could do now.

　Australia and New Zealand are the domain of necromancers.

　After the secret war ended, this land fell into the hands of Moros.

　As the ruler of these two lands, Moros would certainly not allow any armed forces with questionable stances to remain on his territory.

　As a result, the Firemoth's bases in Australia and New Zealand soon received an expulsion order personally issued by the necromancer.

　Faced with the undead army that had surrounded their base, the Firemoth, knowing it had no chance of winning, had no choice but to obey and retreat from the Australian continent and New Zealand in despair.

　In this situation, if the Firemoths want to defeat the Wind Herald, they must send armed forces to New Zealand.

　It is obvious that sending troops into the country without the permission of the necromancer is not much different from starting a war.

　Given the terrifying power the necromancers displayed in the Secret Wars, this was clearly beyond the authority of the Firemoth.

　Although the existence of Honkai and the Firemoth has gradually become public after the end of the Third Great Collapse, the power of the Firemoth has been greatly enhanced as a result.

　However, before the continent of Mu was swallowed by the artificial black hole created by the Ninth Herrscher, the Herrscher of Rock, the Firemoth was still just an international organization under the United Nations, and its actions and decisions were restricted and constrained by the major powers on this planet.

　It is clearly not a decision that an international organization should make to arbitrarily provoke a conflict that could trigger a full-scale nuclear war, causing severe damage or even destruction to human civilization.

　However, the Moths that chase fire cannot stand idly by while the Fourth Herrscher wreaks havoc in New Zealand.

　Although the Fourth Herrscher is currently only active in New Zealand and does not seem to pose a direct threat to the interests of major powers, the Honkai disaster is intensifying globally with the arrival of the Herrscher.

　Based on the lessons learned from the previous three Great Honkai Impacts, Moths of Fire knew that the Great Honkai Impacts would never end unless the Herrschers were dealt with.

　To address this thorny issue, the Moth Chaser Council convened its top leadership again, following a previous video conference with almost all members in attendance.

　The personnel held a higher-level emergency meeting.

　Mu Continent, the headquarters of the Fire Moth.

　The brightly lit conference room was packed with a large crowd, numbering over seventy.

　These people were mainly members of the Firemoth Council, but there were also other important figures present.

　Among them, one beautiful figure was particularly eye-catching.

　She wore a neat white lab coat and high heels, her long blue-purple hair tied back in a high ponytail, and her expression was indifferent yet resolute.

　This is Mei, a rising star in the field of science.

　In order to train her to fight against Mebius, who has an unclear connection with necromancers, after discussions among many councilors of the Firemoth, Mebius was granted special permission to attend this high-level meeting.

　After detailing the dire situation of the Fourth Great Collapse, Senator Eugene, who chaired the meeting, set the tone in a calm voice for the actions of the Moths of Fire in this global crisis.

　"We cannot stand idly by while the Fourth Herrscher wreaks havoc in New Zealand."

　With the help of a loudspeaker, Congressman Eugene's voice echoed in the conference room, firm and powerful.

　"Indeed."

　Congresswoman Ingrid quickly took over the conversation, her voice revealing an undeniable determination.

　"If the Moths that chase fire cannot demonstrate their due value in this great collapse, then everyone should be aware of the consequences."

　Such a swift response makes it hard not to suspect that this Moth-like MP, representing British interests, had already reached some kind of tacit understanding with MP Eugene before the meeting even began.

　Seeing this, the other members of parliament nodded in agreement.

　It's not that they have a strong sense of internationalism or a deep concern for the people of New Zealand.

　Their statement was made simply because the issues raised by Representative Ingrid touched upon their core interests.

　The reason why the Fire Moth has achieved its current status is precisely because of the important role it played in combating the Honkai event.

　If the Moth of Fire fails to react promptly and appropriately when the Great Collapse occurs, its power and status will naturally be severely weakened.

　After all, the expansion of the Fire Moth has made many people envious, and they are all secretly watching the organization, hoping to get a share of the profits when it falls.

　In this situation, in order to protect their own interests, these members of parliament who are closely associated with the Moth of Fire will naturally choose to stand on the same side and face this challenge together.

　However, even so, the biggest problem remains unsolved.

　"The problem now is that we cannot send troops to New Zealand without authorization."

　"I am a member of parliament from a powerful country on the plains of West Europe," said Alberto in a deep voice, his words directly pointing out the current predicament.

　The atmosphere in the meeting room instantly became tense upon hearing this.

　The Moth-like councilors present fell silent.
