Necromancer, but pre-collapse civilization

　After saying that, Amber cut off the communication with Kaslana.

　As Otto's right-hand woman, it's easy to imagine how busy she is right now.

　In this situation, the fact that Amber was able to take the time to answer Siegfried's question already showed great respect for this heir of the Kaslana family.

　However, Amber felt that Siegfried's request at this moment was more like an emotional outburst, and she believed there was no need to continue the discussion.

　"That Otto guy!"

　Siegfried glared at the communication projection that was now marked "closed" before changing his course.

　Since Otto was unwilling to see him, he went to find the leader of Anti-Entropy.

　"Shh-"

　The door opened with a click, and Zieg strode into the room, his gaze fixed on the brown-haired youth sitting on the hospital bed, flipping through the pages of a book.

　"Lord of Anti-Entropy! The whole world is living in fear! Are we just going to sit here and wait to die?!"

　Before Walter could respond to Siegfried's question, the red-haired, twin-tailed "girl" scientist, who was sitting on the side of the hospital bed and intently peeling fruit, spoke first.

　"Don't disturb the patient's rest, you barbarian."

　Walter didn't look up; he calmly took over the conversation.

　"We've already tried. Sixty hours ago, Anti-Entropy's North American headquarters launched three [Silver Bullets] towards the moon..."

　Tesla picked up where Walter left off and continued to explain.

　"This was a probing attack. The Second Herrscher has the ability to teleport, so the Silver Bullets cannot hit her directly. Therefore, we plan to detonate the Silver Bullets remotely after they approach the moon."

　She paused, recalling the execution and results of the previous battle plan, and continued.

　"Unfortunately, as we approached the moon, all the bullets' electronic equipment suddenly malfunctioned, and the [Silver Bullet] became space debris."

　Tesla added, holding a peeled apple in one hand and a fruit knife in the other.

　"We observed a large electromagnetic pulse before the equipment malfunctioned."

　"Electromagnetic pulse... Are there EMP weapons on the moon?"

　Siegfried's blue eyes were filled with doubt.

　Walter closed the book in his hands, his expression solemn.

　"...It's also possible that the Second Herrscher has gained new power."

　His voice revealed deep worry.

　"The Second Herrscher... Before, she was just a little girl with brute strength. Now, she is beginning to learn how to use her power."

Chapter 311 The Entropy Alliance Leader's Path to Death

　Just as Moros and Sirin were immersed in the knowledge recorded in the Moon Temple, Tesla also received a phone call.

　After putting down her phone, the red-haired, twin-tailed "girl" scientist's face turned unusually pale.

　"What's wrong, Tesla?"

　Walter, sitting on the hospital bed, noticed Tesla's unusual behavior and asked with concern.

　After some hesitation, Tesla ultimately decided to be honest.

　"...Ten minutes ago, we observed a strange electromagnetic wave signal coming from the moon."

　"After analysis... we discovered it was a message from the Second Herrscher... the message said..."

　"Meet me on the Moon, First Herrscher."

　"If they don't come, I will send four meteorites to Earth every 72 hours."

　"Don't keep me waiting too long~"

　"I don't have much patience."

　Two hours have passed since I received the message from the Second Herrscher, and there are 70 hours left.

　During this time, the leader of the anti-entropy alliance did not utter a single word.

　Otto consistently avoided meeting with Siegfried.

　Therefore, all the Kaslana family heir could do was wait anxiously.

　Siegfried knew very well that if Welt went to the moon in his current state, he would be killed by the Second Herrscher.

　Even if they temporarily stop the meteorite from falling, they will find it even more difficult to defeat the Second Herrscher after losing the power of the First Herrscher.

　But if we don't go to the moon, we'll have to watch tens of millions of people die.

　No way

　In the previous battle to intercept Morros and Sirin leaving Earth, both Destiny and Anti-Entropy had exhausted their stockpiles of high-powered air-to-air missiles.

　Even with emergency production, it would be difficult to build an air defense force capable of withstanding orbital bombing within 72 hours.

　As for those anti-aircraft missiles designed to intercept fighter jets, they are utterly insignificant in the face of a meteorite capable of destroying an entire city, so it's best not to embarrass yourself with them.

　What would he do?

　Sitting in the chair in the ward, Siegfried was filled with doubt and struggle.

　...If it were me, what would I do...?

　Just then, a blue-haired, beautiful "girl" scientist, who also belongs to the anti-entropy group, walked into the ward with a report.

　After receiving the report from Einstein, Walter made a decision after carefully reviewing it.

　"Hey, Siegfried."

　Walter's voice broke the silence of the ward, instantly waking Siegfried from his reverie.

　He jumped up from his chair like a primary school student being called on by the teacher.

　"I'm getting ready to go to the moon. But before that, I need your help with something..."

　"Please help me contact Bishop Otto; I have something to discuss with him."

　2000 2 Month 12 Day.

　After a 48-hour flight, the general-purpose humanoid weapon, Alahato, successfully landed on the lunar surface.

　Shortly after Walter emerged from Allahato and gazed at Earth, 38.4 kilometers away, Benares, in human form, appeared before him.

　Given Alahato's size, Sirin and Morros could not possibly ignore its arrival.

　Moreover, it was carrying such an important "guest".

　Therefore, the moment Alahato landed, Sirin immediately issued an order to her familiar—the Judgment Dragon Benares—instructing it to guide the First Herrscher to the temple located on the far side of the moon.

　There, Sirin and Morros were waiting for his arrival.

　[First Herrscher, Her Majesty the Queen and Lord Moros have been waiting for you. Let me lead the way.]

　Even though there is no air on the moon and sound cannot travel, the voice of the visitor rang in Walter's mind.

　Welt sensed that the girl before him was somewhere between a Herrscher and a Honkai Beast; he had never seen such a creature before.

　Seeing that Walter showed no sign of leaving, Bella urged him again.

　[First Herrscher, please come this way.]

　The ruins of the Moon Temple, at its center.

　Yes, after memorizing the knowledge engraved on the various pillars, stones, and steles of the Moon Temple, Moros and Sirin did not hesitate to take action and completely destroy this magnificent building left behind by the pre-civilization.

　Although his time with Sirin was very short, the feeling of being relied upon by the beautiful girl made this demigod-level necromancer willing to lend a helping hand to the purple-haired herrscher lady, without jeopardizing his own interests.

　He clearly remembered his memories from his previous life and knew the immense significance of the knowledge recorded in the Moon Temple for the human civilization of this world.

　Given Sirin's unwavering commitment to carrying out the will of [God], Moros knew that the rise and prosperity of human civilization would only make her situation more difficult.

　Therefore, destroying this lunar temple, which had lost its value to them, and preventing humanity from obtaining the valuable knowledge left behind by the previous era, became a task they had to complete.

　At this moment, Sirin sat upright on the stone chair that had been deliberately preserved, her golden eyes fixed on the brown-haired youth in front of her.

　"You've finally arrived, First Herrscher. I've been waiting for you for so long."

　She parted her red lips slightly, her voice tinged with a hint of mockery.

　"I never thought you would actually come to the moon for those ants."

　Gripping the armrests tightly, the crumbling queen slowly stood up, her voice revealing a hint of mockery and disdain.

　Are you prepared to trade your life for the life of an ant?

　"You've utterly disgraced the Herrscher!"

　She roared, unfurling six wings made of imaginary energy, preparing for the impending battle.

　However, to Celine's surprise, the expected attack did not occur.

　The purple-haired herald lady's heart skipped a beat, and she instantly found an explanation for her doubts. A contemptuous smile curled at the corner of her lips.

　"Heh, are you scared? Traitor, this is the true power of God's apostles."

　"...If you are willing to obey me, I may consider letting you go."

　She walked over to Walter, tilted her head slightly, and continued speaking in a provocative tone.

　"Just kneel down and swear allegiance to me..."

　Before she could finish speaking, Walter interrupted her.

　He suddenly opened his clenched fists, and a purple sphere appeared in his hands.

　"Haha, I thought you would have grown a bit after not seeing you for a while."

　The voice of the leader of the Anti-Entropy Alliance was filled with...

　confidence.

　"Even if you have obtained the power of a god, I have already made a plan to win."

　"Let me teach you about human wisdom."

　Sirin snapped her fingers dismissively at Walter's words.

　"You're really good at talking big. I hope you can play with me for a while."

　As the spears of the sub-space were fired in rapid succession, the resulting dust and smoke engulfed the ruins of the lunar temple.

　"...!"

　"Hey."

　"Such a slow attack won't hit anyone."

　"You'd better be faster if you want to hit me."

　"Hmph, so-called human wisdom is nothing more than running away!"

　glaring angrily at Walter, Sirin gave an order to Bella beside her.

　"Bella, go after them!"

Chapter 312 The Destruction of Alahatto

　Since Sirin did not use the stone pillar in the Moon Temple, which contained the precious knowledge left by the previous civilization, as ammunition for orbital bombardment, but instead chose to drop ordinary lunar rocks on Earth, Walter, after careful consideration, decided not to take Siegfried with him to the lunar battlefield.

　Without having to traverse the Honkai energy vortex outside the Moon Temple, which has strict requirements for Honkai energy adaptability, the tasks that Siegfried could accomplish, Raiden Ryoma could also accomplish.

　Conversely, when the battlefield shifted to Earth, Siegfried's combat power in the battle against the Second Herrscher was unmatched by Ryoma.

　In this context, in order to prevent a significant loss of human combat power should the lunar war be lost,

　Walter chose to pilot the general-purpose humanoid weapon [Arahato], and the person who accompanied him to the moon was Raiden Ryoma, a capable subordinate of Anti-Entropy.

　At this moment, the president of Massive Electric (ME), a world-renowned multinational electronics manufacturer, is sitting in the cockpit of the Alahato, intently examining every data point on the instrument panel to ensure that everything is ready.

　According to Walter's pre-planned tactics, he would try to lure the Second Herrscher into Alahato's firing range.

　After he engages in a fierce battle with the Second Herrscher, Raiden Ryoma will be in charge of controlling Arahato, concentrating all weapon firepower, and launching a fierce attack on the position where Welt and the Second Herrscher are fighting.

　To ensure that the Second Herrscher cannot escape this attack using spatial teleportation, Welt will do everything in his power to hold her back.

　Yes, from the very beginning, the leader of Anti-Entropy was determined to defeat the Second Herrscher.
