Necromancer, but pre-collapse civilization

　With Dr. May's wisdom, she certainly understood that as the leader of the Moths of Fire, she had to consider the big picture and not make impulsive decisions based on momentary emotional fluctuations.

　“Congressman William, I sincerely thank you for delivering this report in a timely manner, which allows me to confront our mistakes and responsibilities.”

　Dr. Mei took a deep breath and continued.

　“I fully understand the necromancer’s anger and dissatisfaction with this matter, and I agree with his clear demand for the responsibility that we, the Fire Moths, should bear.”

　At this point, Dr. Mei paused slightly, seemingly organizing her thoughts to ensure that every word that followed accurately conveyed her intentions.

　"The unauthorized actions of the airborne fleet were indeed our fault and a serious betrayal of the trust placed in us by our allies."

　"However, please believe that we at Moth Chaser are capable and willing to bear the consequences of this incident. I will personally intervene to thoroughly investigate every detail of this incident, severely punish those responsible, and at the same time take measures to strengthen internal management, enhance organizational discipline, and ensure that such incidents do not happen again."

Chapter 488 Consensus Reached and Parliament's Response

　Congressman William smiled with satisfaction at Dr. May's statement.

　But knowing the necromancer's intentions, he decided to clarify his position at this time.

　"Dr. Mei, your positive attitude is truly heartening."

　Representative William's words were full of sincerity and respect.

　"But at this moment, I must frankly convey another profound meaning from my lord, His Majesty Moros."

　He looked directly into Dr. May's purple eyes, which seemed to see into people's hearts, and continued speaking.

　"His Majesty Moros emphasized that, in addition to taking the necessary immediate action and thorough internal reforms, Moth of the Flame also needs to provide sufficient compensation to express its deep understanding of the seriousness of the incident and its sincere apology for the damage to its allies' interests."

　After Congressman William finished speaking, Dr. May did not rush to respond, but instead fell into deep thought.

　Her thoughts pierced through the surface of his words, reaching the depths of the soul behind Congressman William's demands, searching for the unspoken intentions and profound meanings.

　This is not merely a superficial examination of the terms and conditions, but a deep dive into the motives and purposes.

　Dr. Mei meticulously analyzed every detail, keenly capturing the information hidden between the lines, attempting to unveil the mystery covering the truth.

　She pondered to herself, trying to figure out the driving force behind Congressman William's statement.

　Was it a direct order from the necromancer, or a subtle adjustment made by Congressman William to demonstrate his personal ability and loyalty?

　Dr. Mei lowered her eyes slightly, quickly weighing the various possibilities in her mind.

　Finally, she raised her head, her purple eyes flashing with determination and resolve.

　“Congressman William, I have deeply felt the importance His Majesty Morales attaches to this matter.”

　Dr. May’s voice was clear and strong, and her gaze was fixed on Congressman William, conveying an unquestionable determination.

　"We have no objection to your request for compensation and apology. We will demonstrate our sincerity and repentance with concrete actions."

　She paused briefly, her tone becoming more solemn.

　“We will develop a detailed and reasonable compensation plan based on a comprehensive assessment of the damage to the necromancer territory. This plan will cover resource assistance, technical support, and include a series of long-term commitments aimed at promoting deeper cooperation between the two sides in the future.”

　Dr. Mei emphasized the word "reasonable".

　"We are willing to take responsibility, but we also hope that both sides can work together to resolve this issue on a fair and reasonable basis."

　Her implication was clear: she was willing to take responsibility for the floating fleet's unauthorized actions and provide corresponding compensation, but the necromancer couldn't ask for an exorbitant amount.

　Faced with Dr. May's clear statement, a hint of hesitation flashed across Congressman William's face.

　Having experienced the brutal political struggles of the "moth chasing the flame," he could tell that this was already the bottom line that Dr. Mei could offer.

　If he still cannot accept this, then this meeting, which appears to be an interrogation but is actually a power struggle, will likely end in failure.

　This outcome is clearly far from what Congressman William had hoped for.

　Therefore, after a brief silence, Congressman William slowly nodded.

　"As you said, we should indeed uphold the principles of fairness and reasonableness and work together to resolve this issue. I believe that through the joint efforts of both sides, we can not only make up for the losses caused by this incident, but also further deepen our mutual understanding and trust..."

　After a series of high-sounding statements, Congressman William extended his right hand, signaling his willingness to cooperate with Dr. May.

　Seeing this, Dr. May smiled and extended her hand to shake hands firmly with Congressman William.

　At this moment, the clasped hands symbolized that the necromancer and the fire-chasing moth had overcome their differences and reached a consensus.

　With understanding.

　As one of the few remaining veteran members of the Moth Chaser Council, Member Wang has won widespread recognition from other Moth Chaser Council members for his extraordinary abilities and accurate insight into the situation.

　After realizing that Representative Karl was one of the thousands of Lawyers, he quickly adjusted his strategy and decided to postpone his cooperation plan with Mr. Karl until the situation on Representative Karl's side was settled.

　Then he noticed the significant meeting between Congressman William and Dr. May.

　The level 5 dark magic [Curse of the Underworld] cast by Moros was so powerful that it swept through the entire Moth Chaser airship fleet in an instant. Except for Councilor Karl who survived, all life on the fleet was slaughtered by this battle spell.

　In this sudden disaster, Wang's trusted confidants who were loyally serving on the front lines of the airship fleet naturally could not escape the misfortune and lost their lives instantly.

　Therefore, this veteran member of the Firemoth Council was actually unaware of the specifics of what had happened.

　Indeed, the destruction of the Moth Chasing Flying Fleet was so massive that even ordinary people on the ground could feel the earth-shattering power.

　But the details of the battle—who launched the attack first, the ferocity of the fighting, and the various secrets behind it—were like looking at flowers through a fog to the unprepared intelligence personnel on the ground, making it difficult to grasp the whole picture.

　In this situation, even a high-ranking member of parliament like Wang, faced with such a sudden change and severe information asymmetry, had to admit that he was also in a fog.

　However, this evergreen in the political arena has his own views on the current situation.

　In his view, this problem can actually be simplified into a multiple-choice question.

　That is, when faced with the surprise attack of the Firemoth floating fleet, should the necromancer fight back or not?

　If it's going to be a war, then there's nothing more to say; they should just go back and prepare for battle.

　If we don't fight, the problem is simple: let Congressman William act as a mediator, make some concessions, and the matter will be over.

　As for the Moth-Chasing Sky Fleet itself...

　Is this important?

　No, a fleet that has already been destroyed is worthless.

　For the Firemoth organization as a whole, the destruction of the floating fleet was undoubtedly a heavy blow.

　However, for Councilor Wang personally, this conflict, meticulously planned by a thousand lawyers, is a double-edged sword, causing him both great anxiety and quietly harboring new opportunities.

　For a long time, the floating fleet of the Moths of Fire has been regarded by veteran members of parliament such as MP Wang as the cornerstone of their power and a symbol of their status, an indispensable private reserve for them to consolidate their position within the organization.

　The complete annihilation of the floating fleet severely damaged their influence within the Firemoth, making their position no longer as secure as it once was.

　However, from another perspective, this conflict, orchestrated by a thousand Herrschers, while causing immense turmoil for Moth Chaser, also provided him with a rare opportunity.

　The conflict drew the attention of everyone, including Dr. May, forcing them to focus on dealing with the crisis and leaving them no time for anything else.

　This provided valuable cover and space for Representative Wang's original plan to be implemented, allowing him to lay out his plans in the shadows and accumulate strength for his subsequent counterattack.

Chapter 489 Their Own Actions

　Having already made up his mind, Councilor Wang did not delay.

　He dialed his husband's number and explained his well-thought-out strategic vision to this distinguished partner who represented the dominant power in East Asia.

　In conclusion, MP Wang believes the time is ripe to officially launch their ambitious joint plan.

　Having understood what Representative Wang meant, silence fell on the other end of the phone.

　Unlike the powerful control that MP Wang demonstrated in the Moth of Fire Parliament, the gentleman knew that although he held a prestigious position and wielded great power, he still needed to act cautiously and not act arbitrarily in the face of such important decisions.

　Councilor Wang was well aware of this.

　He fully understood the meaning behind the gentleman's silence and showed no dissatisfaction or urging.

　Instead, he calmly set a clear deadline for the call and then politely ended it.

　Councilor Wang understood that both she and her husband needed to go all out and seize every second if they wanted to successfully remove Dr. Mei from her position as leader of the Moth of Fire.

　Yes, right now, just as the Tenth Herrscher, the Herrscher of a Thousand, has pulled off a major feat, Councilor Wang, who holds the second-highest influence after Dr. Mei in the Firefly Clan, along with other powerful traditional nations, are sparing no effort to weaken Dr. Mei's leadership position for their own interests.

　With such brilliant and capable leaders, how can human civilization in this era possibly pass the judgment of collapse?

　In a world called [Domination Theater]

　Inside, the various consciousnesses of the thousand Herrschers gathered again for an emergency meeting.

　Klein's assassination attempt on Mebius failed miserably due to the magical artifacts meticulously crafted by Moros.

　This defeat not only meant that the plan that the thousand Heralds had originally hoped to use the necromancers to cleanse human civilization had completely vanished, but also pushed them into an unprecedentedly passive situation.

　Even more serious was that Klein's capture exposed their many conspiracies to the necromancer.

　Based on their understanding of necromancers, the thousand Heralds could foresee that the necromancer who wielded the power of magic was about to launch a fierce and deadly attack on them.

　"Gentlemen, this is the current situation. We must develop an effective strategy to deal with the impending crisis."

　The first individual Herrscher to speak was dressed in a uniform that exuded the majesty of a military general from the dominant North American nation, with glittering silver stars on his shoulders shining brightly in the dim light.

　His voice was deep and firm, conveying an unquestionable authority.

　"Indeed."

　The next speaker was a female consciousness, whose voice was filled with barely concealed anxiety.

　“The necromancer will definitely take action. We cannot sit idly by and wait to die. We must take the initiative and at least complete the mission given to us by God before death comes.”

　"Mission accomplished?"

　The young consciousness's question carried a hint of confusion and unease.

　"Our current situation is not optimistic; many plans have been exposed. Under such unfavorable circumstances, how can we continue to advance the plan to wipe out human civilization?"

　Faced with questions from young conscious individuals that directly addressed the root of the problem, the meeting room fell into a brief moment of contemplation.

　But soon, a more mature and composed voice rang out.

　“Young friend, your concerns are reasonable and a reality we must face.”

　A middle-aged East Asian man in a suit and tie responds to the anxieties of the younger generation with his unique composure and wisdom.

　"But believe that even in the darkest of times, there is always a chance for things to turn around."

　Before revealing his individual identity as a thousand-person herald, he was a driver deeply trusted by the Master. Taking advantage of this position, he overheard many unknown secrets.

　This time, He even grasped some of the Master's important plans.

　This individual Herrscher of a Thousand knew that this information was like a guiding star in the dark night, able to point the lost Herrscher of a Thousand in a new direction.

　Therefore, he shared this valuable information with each of his companions without hesitation, in the most concise and clear way, without reservation.

　This selflessness and candor is precisely the key reason why the Thousand Lawyers were able to bring nightmares to human civilization with their meager individual power.

　Then, the middle-aged East Asian-looking Herrscher of a Thousand, with his more resolute tone, continued.

　"We still have a chance. As long as we can work closely together, utilize this intelligence, and adjust our strategies, we can still continue to advance the plan to cleanse human civilization."

　The power struggles within the Firemoth and the new strategies secretly plotted by the Thousand Herrschers were like two parallel universes to Moros, who was focused on working with Mebius to save Klein. They failed to shake his will in the slightest.

　Although Klein, who had already transformed into a thousand Herrschers, had been trying to end her life, each of her suicide attempts was in vain under the personal care of a demigod-level necromancer.

　His memories as a captain in his previous life told him that the individual Herrschers would end their own lives after being captured alive.

　Therefore, necromancers always maintain a high level of vigilance and dare not relax their guard in the slightest.

　He knew all too well what Klein meant to Möbius.

　That deep affection and bond cannot be easily severed by any force.

　Although Möbius now has Moros's unwavering support and companionship in this new world, Moros still doesn't want Möbius to suffer the same emotional blow as losing Klein.

　Getting back to the point, while Moros may not be as dazzling in terms of the versatility of magic as those spellcasters of the same demigod level in the world of Ashan, a demigod is a demigod, and the spells he personally casts are not something that a small individual of a thousand Herrschers can withstand.

　While Moros was closely watching over Klein, who had transformed into a thousand individual Herrschers, Mebius was not idle either.

　She is working tirelessly to accelerate the complex process of creating a new body specifically for Klein.

　For Möbius, a giant in the field of biology, simply creating or modifying an ordinary body was a piece of cake.

　Even the body of a Fusion Warrior, which incorporates Honkai Beast genes and possesses immense power, is merely the tip of the iceberg when it comes to her technical prowess.

　However, creating a flawless, absolutely perfect body for Klein was the ultimate test of her professional abilities.

　This task compels Möbius to continuously explore multiple cutting-edge fields such as biology, genetics, and materials science.

　And breakthroughs.
