Necromancer, but pre-collapse civilization

　The [Moonlight Throne] system unleashes a standard beam attack, which travels at the speed of light and can instantly traverse vast distances to strike the target.

　It is obvious that, faced with such a light-speed attack, neither a demigod-level necromancer nor a Honkai Queen with six Herrscher cores could react or dodge in time.

Chapter 347 The Extinction of Consciousness

　"What's wrong? My head... I feel so dizzy..."

　With her hands tightly clutching her head, Celine curled up in pain.

　The [Moon Throne] system demonstrated its powerful ability to decompose 30% of the Honkai energy of the Herrscher of the End during the lunar war of the previous civilization.

　Admittedly, the version of the [Moonlight Throne] system hastily produced by Einstein and Tesla was far inferior to the [Moonlight Throne] system of the previous civilization, but Sirin's power was also far less formidable than that of the Herrscher of the End.

　In this situation, it makes perfect sense that the beam of light released by the [Moon Throne] would be enough to render Sirin temporarily incapacitated.

　According to the plan formulated by Einstein, Tesla, and Amber before the battle, it was time for the Valkyrie troops, who had been maintaining their status, to take the field.

　Although these Valkyries were no different from ants in front of the Second Herrscher at her peak, when Sirin was successfully weakened to a state of incapacitation by the [Moonlight Throne] system, these Valkyries, who seemed insignificant in ordinary times, also had the possibility of ending her life.

　However, the current situation is slightly different from what Einstein and his team planned.

　Moros's intervention escalated the threat faced by the Valkyrie forces from the Second Herrscher's symbiotic Honkai Beast—Judgment Dragon Benares—to an unprecedented level.

　This sudden change brought immeasurable uncertainty to the battle situation.

　It could even be said that his existence turned what should have been a foolproof plan into a gamble with less than a one percent chance of success.

　Einstein and Tesla were unaware of the power of necromancers, so how could Amber, as Bishop Otto's most trusted assistant, not know?

　The brutality of the battle at the headquarters of Destiny has already demonstrated to the world the terrifying power of necromancers.

　Faced with such a powerful existence, the Valkyrie Squad, lacking S-class combat power, could only rely on their unwavering courage and resolute determination to do everything in their power to buy time.

　Even so, whether they can buy enough time to annihilate the Second Herrscher remains a huge unknown.

　What does "courage and determination" mean?

　It represents fearless sacrifice, it is giving one's life.

　As a bargaining chip, we race against time to fight for a glimmer of hope.

　Even so, the balance of victory remains uncertain.

　However, fate and anti-entropy have left them with no other choice.

　If they cannot defeat the Second Herrscher today, they will be helpless and watch as this queen of space pushes human civilization into the abyss of destruction.

　In order to protect all the good things in this world, all the Valkyries who participated in this battle were prepared to face death.

　Unfortunately, unwavering determination could not bridge the gap in strength.

　Just as Sirin was struck by the dazzling beam of light released by the [Moon Throne] system and collapsed in agony onto the head of the Judgment Dragon Benares, Moros also reacted swiftly.

　He suddenly swung the [Netherworld Staff] in his hand, and a deep and dense magical black mist spread out like a surging torrent, completely enveloping the entire area at the exit of the Imaginary Number Passage in darkness and chaos.

　Under the shroud of magical black mist, the already tense and fierce battlefield became even more chaotic.

　The Valkyries were suddenly enveloped in darkness, their sight was taken away, and they could not see anything around them.

　Moros then took advantage of this opportunity to unleash a series of battle spells in the darkness.

　"Don't panic! Maintain formation!"

　An A-rank Valkyrie with long, gray-blue hair screamed in the darkness.

　Although her voice was partially swallowed by the magical black mist, it still revealed an unwavering determination and strength.

　With the command given by the Snow Wolf Squad Valkyrie, known as the "Floating Solar Prominence," the anxiety in the hearts of the other Valkyries gradually subsided.

　They began to rely on their keen hearing and intuition to grope and sense in the endless darkness, doing their utmost to maintain the stability and integrity of their battle formation.

　But Moros gave them no chance to catch their breath.

　He waved the [Netherworld Staff] in his hand once more, and an even more powerful magical energy burst forth from the tip of the staff, transforming into countless dark blue energy arrows.

　They pierced the darkness, streaking and exploding like meteors.

　Despite their best efforts to dodge, many of the Valkyries were still hit and fell to the ground.

　As a demigod-level spellcaster, the necromancer's spells are so powerful that ordinary Valkyries cannot withstand them.

　This can't go on...

　Manipulating the Note Sword, Shiyu Qiluo shielded her companion with long red hair behind her from a deadly energy arrow. She looked at the leader of the assault team, Cheng Lixue, the strongest A-rank Valkyrie of Destiny and the acting commander of the Valkyrie Squad.

　After the battle for Schicksal headquarters that broke out over the Mediterranean Sea came to an end, this gray-haired, gray-eyed Valkyrie became a symbol of Schicksal's individual strength, even surpassing the powerful Amber.

　However, the scene before her eyes filled Shigure Kira with disappointment.

　Facing the necromancer's magical onslaught, even Cheng Lixue, Fu Hua's disciple, was now locked in a fierce battle, unable to effectively command the assault force.

　This is also normal.

　Facing a demigod-level necromancer, an assault force that can't even muster an S-rank combatant would have no chance from the start.

　In fact, if Moros hadn't been focusing his main attention on Sirin, these Valkyries would probably have been reduced to ashes by his magical storm long ago.

　Just as the Honkai energy decomposition beam released by the [Moonlight Throne] system struck Sirin, the [God] who had been lurking deep within the consciousness of the Apostle of God made his move.

　He bore most of the pressure of the [Moonlight Throne] system for his most beloved apostle, so that although Sirin suffered the pain of Honkai energy being broken down, she did not actually suffer much substantial physical damage.

　However, this protection also led to the temporary shutdown of "God".

　With the silence of the [God], Welt's consciousness, which had been suppressed within the core of the Herrscher of Reason, was liberated.

　Upon regaining his freedom, Welt quickly figured out the current situation through the Herrscher of Reason core that had been devoured by Sirin.

　To prevent the last hope of Destiny and Anti-Entropy from being destroyed in this magical black mist, Welt had no choice but to step forward and confront the consciousness of the Second Herrscher.

　His appearance successfully diverted the necromancer's attention.

　For Moros, whose methods are relatively limited, the battle of consciousness is an area where he cannot directly intervene.

　Therefore, he could only cast a series of buff spells on Sirin in an attempt to provide assistance indirectly.

　As it turned out, Moros's spells were not entirely useless.

　Originally, Walter was already under immense pressure from his confrontation with Sirin in her world of consciousness, but now, the necromancer's magic has exacerbated his predicament, making him increasingly overwhelmed in this battle of consciousness.

　In just a minute or two, this modern Herrscher of Reason was pierced through the chest by Sirin's Void Spear and perished completely in the pure white space of consciousness.

Chapter 348 Appeasement and Gaze

　Even after annihilating Welt's consciousness, Sirin was still uneasy and decided to...

　A comprehensive and detailed analysis of the six Herrscher cores within the body was conducted.

　Clearly, this broken queen has been disturbed by the Anti-Entropy Alliance Leader's sit-up tactics, leaving her with some psychological trauma.

　However, this in-depth analysis unexpectedly revealed a fact that horrified her.

　Her connection with God was suddenly severed.

　No matter how much Celine called out or prayed in the depths of her heart, she could not reach the great being who had once given her boundless power.

　Faced with this sudden change, the purple-haired herald felt an unprecedented sense of loneliness and helplessness.

　In this helpless moment, she instinctively wanted to seek help from two people who were extremely important to her.

　Bella, Morros, are they alright...?

　With these worries in mind, Sirin resolutely left the pure white consciousness space that buried Walter's consciousness and returned to the real world.

　However, when she opened her eyes again, an unexpected sight stunned her.

　She found herself lying on a soft, comfortable blanket, her head resting on Benares's long, soft thighs.

　She felt that unique, warm touch on the back of her head, a gentle and protective sensation unique to Benares.

　Moros stood quietly to the side, his eyes filled with worry and concern for her.

　Celine's eyes widened, her surprise evident.

　She never expected that the first thing she would see after waking up would be this scene.

　"You... you..."

　She struggled to sit up, trying to say something.

　But nervousness and shyness blocked her throat like a boulder, making her words hesitant and difficult to express completely.

　Feeling the slight heat rising on her cheeks, a strange emotion welled up in Celine's heart.

　This unexpected concern moved her and left her at a loss, as if all her loneliness and helplessness had been comforted at that moment.

　When Benares saw that Celine had woken up, his face lit up with undisguised joy.

　"Your Majesty, you're finally awake. I was so worried about you."

　Moros, holding the [Underworld Staff] that shimmered with an eerie light, walked slowly towards them.

　"Are you alright? You look very pale."

　Upon seeing these two most important people in her heart, Sirin was overwhelmed by a wave of confusion and helplessness, and she could no longer suppress her emotions.

　Ignoring her shyness, she threw herself into the necromancer's arms, tears streaming down her face.

　"Woo..."

　Amid sobs, the crumbling queen struggled to speak, telling the two that she was unable to contact the "gods."

　Her voice was filled with helplessness and fear, as if the whole world had collapsed at that moment.

　As they listened to Celine's sobs and account, both Moros and Benares wore expressions of shock and worry.

　Whether it's the necromancer or the Judgment Dragon, they all know Sirin's reverence for "God" and the devastating impact this loss of contact means to her.

　Gently stroking Sirin's little head, Moros tried to offer her some comfort with his tenderness.

　At the same time, he cast an inquiring glance at Benares, hoping that this companion Honkai Beast could work with him to find a solution.

　However, Benares's reaction left him somewhat disappointed.

　This tall, slender girl, despite possessing power approaching legendary level, clearly lacked the ability to read people's expressions.

　She failed to grasp the deeper meaning in Moros's eyes and did not react to his hints at all.

　However, although Benares did not immediately grasp the necromancer's intentions, her concern for Sirin was genuine.

　Seeing Celine in such pain and despair, she was also filled with unease.

　After a moment of silence, she raised her head, her eyes shining with determination.

　"Your Majesty, please rest assured that no matter what happens, I will stand by your side and face it together with you."

　"Bella..."

　Upon hearing Benares's vow, Sirin looked up, her eyes filled with tears, gazing at her faithful servant.

　At this moment, her anxiety caused by being unable to contact [God] was somewhat relieved.

　Seeing this, Moros also stepped forward and said gently.

　"Cilin, you are not alone. I will always be with you."

　However, a voice in the necromancer's heart quietly reminded him that all of this was only temporary.

　He is not a native of this world. Once he completes the hero template advancement mission, he will naturally leave this world and return to his own.

　But at this crucial moment, he chose to keep those words in his heart, giving Celine the greatest support and comfort.

　While Moros and Benares were quietly trying to calm Sirin down, the assault force in the magical black mist had already stepped into an abyss of despair.

　Even though the necromancer's main attention was not focused on these valiant Valkyries, they still could not withstand the powerful battle spells he casually unleashed.

　Under the command of Shigure Kira, an elite A-rank Valkyrie and member of the Snow Wolf Squad, the assault force gradually recovered from the initial chaos, and the rate of casualties slowed down.

　But the eerie blue energy arrows that occasionally shot out from the magical black mist were like the Grim Reaper's scythe, mercilessly reaping the lives of the Valkyries.

　Cheng Lixue, the Valkyrie who wields the Ruoshui Sword, the tenth divine key and the key of domination, has brought her abilities to their fullest potential.

　She wielded the Ruoshui Sword, transforming it into curtains of water in an attempt to intercept the powerful battle spells.

　However, even with her best efforts, she could only block part of the attack.

　This is easy to understand.

　On this battlefield shrouded in darkness, in addition to the ever-present first-level destructive magic [Magic Arrow], Moros also occasionally unleashed more advanced battle spells.
