Necromancer, but pre-collapse civilization

　Faced with Aponia's rejection, the commander, after a brief moment of stunned silence, quickly regained his composure and decisiveness.

　He knew full well that the mission was arduous and could not afford to fail.

　and so……

　"In that case, we have no choice but to take the necessary measures."

　As he finished speaking, this elite force, which could be considered among the most elite of the Fire-Chasing Moths, entered combat readiness.

　However, they clearly underestimated the power of the [Discipline] that Aponia possessed.

　"Please lay down your weapons and submit to the arrangements of fate."

　Aponia's voice was cold and authoritative, seemingly able to penetrate the deepest fears and struggles in people's hearts.

　Under the control of the [Discipline], the ordinary soldiers, as if their souls had been ripped out, laid down their weapons and obediently walked into the depths of the prison.

　Those self-important Fusion Warriors, though initially intimidated by the power of the [Discipline], were still unwilling to easily bow down due to their pride and self-esteem.

　They tried to find a way out through negotiation, but little did they know that it was all in vain.

　Aponia ignored their struggles, a hint of regret flickering in her empty eyes.

　"Step forward to receive the precepts, and submit to all that is ordained!"

　As she announced this, a golden crack appeared in the sky, and dazzling lightning descended like divine punishment, completely engulfing the fusion warriors who were still trying to resist in the light.

　Guangzhou Branch of the "Moths Chasing Flames" in East Asia.

　"All things are impermanent, subject to the cycle of cause and effect; arising and ceasing in an instant are nothing but dreams, illusions, bubbles, and shadows."

　The gray-haired, green-eyed youth gently closed his eyes. With the extraordinary power granted by the genes of the Emperor-level Honkai Beast [Moyuri], he easily pulled all the members of the coup forces who attempted to control this branch into the dream world under his control.

Chapter 496 Capturing a Thousand Individual Herrschers

　Thanks to the superior performance of the highly efficient anti-collapse energy inhibitor developed by Dr. Mei, the collapsing energy inhibitor jointly developed by the countries behind Representative Wang and her husband failed to achieve the expected results in actual combat applications.

　Kevin and his fellow Heroic Fusion Warriors, unaffected by any weakening, effortlessly thwarted Councilor Wang and Mr. Wang's meticulously planned coup plot aimed at shaking the foundations of the Fire Moth with their unparalleled power.

　Amidst this chaotic vortex, the Tenth Herrscher, the Herrscher of a Thousand, also intervened in the battle.

　This divine apostle, existing in a collective form, dispatched numerous individuals in an attempt to take advantage of the chaos caused by the coup d'état by Councilor Wang and Mr. [Name], and to eliminate the Fusion Warriors who were loyal to Dr. [Name].

　However, the individual strength of these thousand Herrschers was completely insufficient to support their inflated ambitions.

　Those few Heroic-class Fusion Warriors who were unaffected by the Honkai Energy Suppressant displayed astonishing combat power and efficiency.

　They were not only able to suppress the coup forces with ease, but also to annihilate the thousand individual Herrschers who took advantage of the chaos at the same time.

　Not only top-tier Heroic-level Fusion Warriors like Kevin, Qianjie, and Sakura, but even ordinary Fusion Warriors, aided by Dr. Mei's anti-Honkai energy inhibitors...

　Under such circumstances, it also demonstrated a formidable combat power capable of annihilating a thousand individual Herrschers.

　Unlike the Fusion Warriors who sided with Dr. May, the individual Herrschers were not equipped with anti-Honkai energy inhibitors.

　Therefore, when the coup forces dispatched by Councilor Wang and Mr. released Honkai energy inhibitors, the strength of these individual Herrschers was greatly weakened, almost falling to the level of ordinary enhanced warriors.

　Given such a disparity in strength, even the weaker members of the Fusion Warriors could experience the exhilarating feeling of mowing down enemies when facing these weakened Herrscher individuals.

　Just as Kevin, Qianjie, Sakura, and other fusion warriors on Dr. Mei's side were launching attacks around the world to suppress the coup forces dispatched by Councilor Wang and Mr., Moros also successfully captured a thousand Herrschers within his own territory.

　Although the necromancer's system of governance has very little control at the local level, when the master of this system—the necromancer himself—issues an order, his bureaucracy can still respond quickly and provide him with the necessary information accurately.

　Moros's illustrious reputation was built upon the loss of countless lives and the piles of bones.

　The bureaucrats, who valued their own lives, were filled with awe for this terrifying figure and dared not provoke him.

　They were keenly aware that any attempt to challenge Morros's authority would lead to an irreversible and tragic end.

　Try it, and you really will die.

　When the bureaucratic system is fully activated and operating efficiently, its powerful intelligence gathering and oversight capabilities expose numerous secrets.

　The real manipulators behind the black markets in various places are the local bureaucrats.

　Once they decided to investigate further, the black market was unveiled, and all transactions and activities were exposed.

　In this situation, those thousand Herrscher individuals who had attempted to use the black market as cover to secretly procure weapons and equipment and send support to other regions through the [Domination Theater] would naturally be exposed.

　Getting back to the main point, the moment Moros received the detailed report from his bureaucratic system, he did not hesitate to cast a teleportation spell, instantly crossing spatial barriers and arriving at the place where the thousand Herrschers had last appeared, as indicated in the report.

　He then cast a series of wide-area detection spells, such as [See Through the Earth], to thoroughly examine the entire area, leaving no clue unchecked.

　Having received the [Domination Theater] bestowed by the Cocoon of the End, the strategic mobility of those thousand Herrschers has achieved a qualitative leap compared to the Tenth Herrscher in the pre-civilization era of the Existing World.

　In addition, thanks to the warning provided by the individual Herrscher who held a mid-level bureaucratic position in his bureaucratic system and whose identity had not yet been revealed, Moros's search operation did not achieve significant results in the early stages.

　However, the necromancer displayed extraordinary patience and perseverance.

　He believed that as long as this comprehensive and meticulous search continued, one of those cunning thousand Lawbringers would inevitably slip up and become his prey.

　As it turned out, Moros's belief was not unfounded.

　On the 45th day and night after the arrival of the Tenth Herrscher, the Herrscher of a Thousand, one of the Herrschers of a Thousand finally failed to escape Moros's keen perception and was caught by him.

　Perhaps due to overconfidence fostered by repeated escapes, or simply bad luck, this Herrscher of a Thousand became an unfortunate victim in this contest.

　Faced with Moros's overwhelming power, the thousand Herrschers who were locked on had no chance to struggle.

　In just one encounter, he was captured alive by the necromancer.

　Under the overwhelming power of dark magic, the mind of this individual Herrscher of a Thousand was instantly dominated.

　Faced with Moros's questioning, He could not hide even the slightest secret.

　It was through this penetrating interrogation that the necromancer was shocked to discover that there was actually a thousand Lawbringers within his bureaucratic system.

　Upon learning this astonishing news, Moros did not hesitate or delay at all.

　He immediately gathered powerful magic and cast a teleportation spell, traversing a vast distance to appear before the thousand Herrschers hidden among his bureaucrats.

　then……

　There is no more.

　Facing a demigod-level necromancer, the thousand individual Herrschers had absolutely no chance of escape.

　After capturing two individual Herrschers of the Thousand, Moros wisely abandoned his plan to continue blindly searching for other individual Herrschers of the Thousand across the vast territory.

　He knew that rather than searching for a needle in a haystack in his own territory like a headless fly, it was better to focus his energy on the two individual Herrschers in front of him.

　Through in-depth analysis of them, Moros was confident that he could obtain the spatial coordinates of the [Dominion Theater].

　Yes, during the previous interrogation, Moros not only confirmed the identity of the thousand Herrschers hidden within his bureaucratic system, but also unexpectedly obtained crucial information about the [Dominion Theater] – this world bubble.

　This discovery undoubtedly...

　A series of ripples stirred within my heart.

　The thought of it being a complete bubble of the world filled Moros with intense longing and excitement.

　The world bubble of the Tree Sea system is no less valuable than the demiplane in the High Magic world, and in some aspects it is even more unique and precious.

　In a high-magic world like Ashan, even a small demiplane is enough to arouse the covetousness and struggle of countless powerful beings.

　On this planet, the preciousness of the world bubble is magnified infinitely.

　Moros had no doubt that he would not have a second chance to obtain the World Bubble before the Herrscher of the End descended.

Chapter 497 Teleportation Assault Dominates the Theater

　The Tenth Herrscher, the Thousand Herrschers, can achieve real-time communication regardless of spatial distance through a mysterious mechanism similar to [quantum entanglement].

　Therefore, when Moros successfully captured two Herrschers of a Thousand within his territory, the news was immediately perceived by all Herrschers of a Thousand.

　Then they realized they were in big trouble.

　The individual Herrschers were not surprised that the necromancers would go to great lengths to cause them trouble.

　After all, Klein, who was once a member of the Thousand Herrschers, had already contributed all the secrets and information she had about necromancers to this group without reservation.

　Therefore, the thousand Heralds have gained a deep and comprehensive understanding of the necromancer's personality and style of doing things.

　In this situation, they were actually fully prepared psychologically for the fierce retaliation that Moros was about to launch.

　However, Moros's unexpected action—choosing to capture rather than eliminate them directly—caused an ominous premonition in the hearts of every single Herrscher of a Thousand.

　They knew all too well that necromancers were known for their direct and ruthless style of doing things, and that this change in strategy clearly concealed a hidden scheme.

　This sudden and unusual action plunged each of the thousand lawmen into deep thought and worry.

　They began to speculate whether Moros was plotting to extract some crucial secret from them, or attempting to seize the power they possessed.

　Tragically, the weak strength of the thousand Herrschers meant they could do nothing but ponder and speculate.

　The 52th day after the arrival of the Tenth Herrscher, the Herrscher of a Thousand.

　Clad in a brown [Cloak of Death Shadows], carrying a [Staff of the Underworld] that emits a faint fluorescent green glow, and wearing the [Ring of No Regrets] and [Soul-Summoning Amulet], the fully armed necromancer is now standing hand in hand with Mebius in the center of a six-pointed star magic circle, making final preparations for the surprise attack on the [Theater of Domination].

　Just three hours ago, Moros, with his extraordinary spellcasting abilities, successfully obtained the precise spatial coordinates of the [Domination Theater] from the captured thousand Herrscher individuals.

　Immediately afterwards, he went straight to Möbius and solemnly announced his decision.

　Launch a surprise attack on the stronghold of the thousand Herrschers—the Domination Theater.

　Moros always remembered Möbius's earnest request deep in his heart.

　That was when they were saving Klein together, and she expressed to him her strong desire to fight alongside him and eliminate the Thousand Herrschers.

　Klein's act of transforming into a thousand Herrschers and attempting to assassinate her truly enraged Viper.

　Therefore, when Moros mentioned the raid plan, Mebius did not hesitate to say that he wanted to join the battle.

　She would personally settle accounts with the thousand healers for that unforgivable hatred.

　And then, this scene unfolded.

　As the six-pointed star array gradually brightened, a powerful energy surged around the two of them.

　Moros took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and focused all his consciousness and power on one point, preparing to receive the upcoming spatial teleportation.

　To break through the spatial barrier of the [Domination Theater] and invade the sanctuary granted to its loyal apostles by the Cocoon of the End, even a demigod-level necromancer must exert all his strength and cannot afford the slightest slackening.

　However, he was, after all, a spellcaster of demigod rank.

　Even though their breadth of knowledge cannot compare with that of the demigod mages in the world of Ashan who have received orthodox academy education.

　However, relying on his hero level of 36 and his considerable magical skill, the necromancer still managed to break through the seemingly indestructible spatial barrier of the Theater of Domination.

　The next moment, a deep blue light enveloped Moros and Mebius above the magic circle.

　Mebius was no stranger to Moros's teleportation spell.

　Therefore, she was able to keenly perceive that this teleportation to the [Domination Theater] was significantly different from the point-to-point teleportation that had been carried out on the planet in the past.

　In the past, whenever Moros cast a teleportation spell on this planet, he would simply open a remote portal, through which she and Moros could easily reach their destination.

　The entire process is smooth and rapid, without causing dizziness or glaring blue light.

　Hui interferes with vision.

　But this teleportation, undertaken to raid the Theater of Domination, brought Mebius a completely different experience.

　A sudden, intense dizziness struck, as if my body had been swept into a washing machine running at full speed, with each rotation accompanied by the illusion of the world spinning around me.

　At the same time, her vision was also filled with an undeniable blue light that pierced through her tightly closed eyelids, a light that even the deepest darkness could not conceal.

　Under the blue light, the surrounding scenery became blurry and distant. She felt as if she were in a void, with only the sensation of her body constantly floating reminding her of her existence.

　This unique experience made Mebius realize that the teleportation raid she and Moros had carried out this time was incomparable to any previous long-distance teleportation.

　"How can this be?!"

　"How could the [Dominion Theater] possibly be hacked?!"

　"This is a sanctuary that God himself has given us..."

　"..."

　Inside the [Domination Theater], every single one of the thousand Herrschers was utterly shocked by Moros's teleportation attack.

　As the master of the [Dominion Theater], when the necromancer's bizarre magic tore through the spatial barrier of the [Dominion Theater], the Thousand-Man Herrscher immediately sensed his intrusion.

　However, they were helpless in the face of this.

　Their individual strength was relatively weak, and their powers and spatial abilities were not matched, which made it impossible for them to effectively block Moros's teleportation attack.

　Admittedly, each of the thousand Herrschers possesses unique abilities, but these abilities are merely simplified and degraded versions of the true Herrscher powers.
