Necromancer, but pre-collapse civilization

　Suddenly, Moros had a brilliant idea.

　He smiled and looked at his four lovers around him—Alishia, Velvi, Mebius, and Eden—and made the suggestion.

　"To celebrate our reunion and to remember this hard-won happiness, let's hold a grand mini-banquet on the top floor of the Magic Guild tonight! Let's remember and celebrate this hard-won happiness with exquisite food, melodious music, and endless laughter."

　Upon hearing this, Alicia was the first to clap and cheer.

　Her eyes sparkled with a light as bright as stars, as if she were already in that night filled with laughter and joy.

　"Great idea! I'll get to it right away and make sure this banquet becomes our most shining and heartwarming memory."

　Vervi also showed an approving expression.

　She gave her mentor a gentle hug, a mischievous glint in her pink eyes.

　"It seems you've finally learned to enjoy life, Morros. Such a celebration is essential. I'll use my talents to devise some fun little tricks and surprises to add a vibrant touch to our banquet and make our night even more unforgettable."

　Although Mebius is not usually keen on such occasions, at this moment, a rare smile appeared in her eyes.

　She nodded gently, her voice carrying a rare softness.

　"Alright, since everyone's having so much fun, I'll join in too. I'll be in charge of mixing some special drinks to make our night even more enjoyable."

　Eden smiled gently, her eyes filled with tenderness and anticipation.

　"I will be in charge of the banquet setup and music selection, turning the venue into a dreamlike wonderland. I will decorate it with flowers, candles, and soft drapery, and then play a series of beautiful melodies, so that we can spend a romantic and unforgettable night together there."

　Watching them enthusiastically discussing the banquet arrangements, Moros's heart was filled with emotion and happiness.

　He knew that Alicia, Velvi, Möbius, and Eden were not only his lovers, but also his warm haven in life.

　The four of them, in their own unique ways, built a strong and warm fortress for Moros.

　Within this fortress, no matter how turbulent the outside world may be, he can find peace and warmth, and feel the power of home.

　This power made him even braver and more fearless when facing the challenges of the collapsing apocalypse.

　"Then it's settled. Everyone, get ready. Tonight, let's create a wonderful night together. It will be a beautiful memory for us all, and a testament to the deep affection between us."

　Moros's voice was full of anticipation.

　So everyone sprang into action and began preparing for the banquet.

　The top floor of the Magic Guild gradually became lively, with various magical lights reflecting off each other, the aroma of delicious food wafting through the air, and melodious music echoing in the air.

　On this night filled with laughter and joy, Maurois and his loved ones created an eternal memory for them.

Chapter 654 Confrontation

　Just as Moros was enjoying the pleasures of the feast, Sakura met Mei again in a secluded room deep within the headquarters of the Firemoth.

　Kevin had complete trust in his beloved Dr. May.

　It could even be said that Kevin trusted May more than he trusted himself.

　That is why he could not possibly keep such a significant event as Sakura's resurrection from Mei.

　Upon learning of Sakura's rebirth from Kevin, Mei's astonishment was palpable.

　Even though she had made the greatest possible assessment of the supernatural power called magic that necromancers possessed, Mei was still involuntarily overwhelmed with shock the moment she heard the news.

　She never imagined that magic could transcend the boundaries of life and death, creating such an incredible miracle as resurrection.

　However, just as Kevin trusted May, Dr. May also gave her lover absolute trust.

　Even though Kevin's talk of resurrection sounded like a fantasy to her, May never considered it a completely impossible delusion.

　On the contrary, she had already taken precautions and made a series of thorough preparations for this.

　Now is the time for these carefully prepared plans to come into play.

　"Doctor, where's the bell?"

　Ignoring the oppressive and suffocating atmosphere around her, Sakura cut straight to the point.

　The reason she was willing to become Dr. Mei's blade and risk her life for the Moth of Fire was all for her beloved younger sister, Rin.

　In that decisive battle, when Rin awakened as the Twelfth Herrscher, Sakura was willing to risk her life to defend her dignity and pride as the older sister.

　However, with her own rebirth and return, everything about Rin naturally resurfaced in her mind.

　From Pathophilis and Hua, Sakura has learned everything that Rin, who has transformed into the Twelfth Herrscher, has done.

　Even so, Ling still holds an irreplaceable place in her heart.

　That blood-is-thicker-than-water kinship was something she could not and was unwilling to sever.

　Sakura is willing to give everything for Rin.

　This is why she resolutely stood in front of Dr. Mei and confronted him.

　She wants to save her sister and free her from the black box that imprisons her soul.

　"Sakura, calm down."

　Mei tried to soothe Ying's slightly trembling emotions caused by excitement.

　“I understand how you feel, but Ling’s situation is far more complicated than you think.”

　Sakura's eyes were fixed on Mei's face, her gaze filled with a complex light that was a mixture of determination and pleading.

　She involuntarily took a step forward, almost touching Mei, but at the last moment, reason held her back, and she stopped.

　“Doctor, I know what Ling did, but I can’t just stand by and watch her suffer in that dark box. She’s my sister, my only family.”

　Sakura's voice carried a hint of pleading; she desperately hoped that Mei could give a different answer.

　Mei shook her head, her eyes revealing a deep sense of helplessness.

　“Sakura, Rin has awakened as the Twelfth Herrscher, and her danger has been proven by facts. Although the black box imprisoned her, it was a necessary measure to protect innocent people from further harm.”

　Sakura clenched her fists so tightly that her nails dug deep into her palms. She tried her best to suppress the impulses and despair in her heart and prevent them from erupting.

　“But she is Rin, my sister! I can’t let her be trapped there forever. Even if there is only the slightest hope, I will try.”

　With a sigh, Mei's eyes were filled with understanding of Sakura's pain and struggle, but as the leader of the Moths of Fire, she had to weigh the overall situation.

　“Sakura, I assure you, we will find a solution, but not now, and not at the cost of more people. We need time, and we need to find a way to control the power of the bell.”

　A tear glistened in Sakura's eyes, but she stubbornly refused to let it fall.

　Her pride wouldn't allow her to show such weakness in front of Mei.

　“Time? We’ve already lost too much time. Every delay is torture for Rin. Doctor, I beg you, let me take her away, I will find a way.”

　Mei's eyes became unusually firm. She knew Ying's determination and understood that this confrontation could not be easily resolved.

　“Sakura, I can’t let you do this. Rin’s safety, and the safety of the entire world, rests on the shoulders of each and every one of us. Trust me, and trust us, we will find the best solution.”

　Mei's words carried an undeniable firmness.

　Having understood Dr. Mei's meaning, Sakura's body trembled slightly.

　She had sensed the unquestionable authority in Mei's words and understood that her struggles might be in vain.

　But the love and persistence in her heart made it impossible for her to give up easily.

　"I will wait, but please remember, Ling is my bottom line. I am willing to give everything for her."

　Having said that, Sakura, knowing she could no longer get the black box that imprisoned Rin from Mei through words, resolutely turned and left without looking back.

　During the 12th Great Collapse, Sakura recklessly stormed into the headquarters of the Fire Moth in order to save Rin.

　Now, it's just a repeat of the past.

　Looking at the resolute and fearless expression in Sakura's back, Dr. Mei knew that things were in trouble.

　Sakura, a heroine from the Poison Chrysalis unit, is undoubtedly outstanding and undisputed in her skills in infiltration and assassination.

　In the past, she was Dr. Mei's sharpest blade, the last line of defense in the face of all kinds of extremely difficult tasks.

　However, she has now transformed into a warrior who would do anything for her sister.

　This is not good news for Dr. Mei.

　However, considering the overall situation, Dr. May knew she couldn't allow Kevin, who was guarding outside the room, to take drastic measures to force her to stay.

　Because that would be a devastating blow to the Fusion Warriors.

　It will not only weaken the team's overall strength, but may also cause internal divisions and turmoil within the team.

　The fusion warriors who knew about Sakura and Rin's plight were already indignant and had many complaints.

　If such a conflict and confrontation were to actually occur, the consequences would be unimaginable.

　With the process of the Collapse Trial closing in, this is a disaster that no human civilization can bear.

　Just as Dr. May was lost in thought, Kevin's voice came from outside the room.

　He had clearly sensed the tense atmosphere in the room, as well as Sakura's departure.

　"Mei, has she left?"

　Kevin's voice carried a hint of worry.

　Nodding, Dr. Mei took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down.

　"Yes, she's gone. Kevin, I know you're worried, but please believe me, I will find a solution."

　After a moment of silence, Kevin continued.

　“Mei, I know your difficulties. But Sakura… she has already sacrificed so much for Rin. If there really is a way, I hope you can try your best to fulfill her wishes.”

　"Well, I will."

Chapter 655 From Demiplane to Earth

　Moros, who was in the demiplane, was completely unaware of the confrontation between Cherry and Plum.

　The arrival of the twelfth Great Collapse brought unprecedented devastation to the Firemoth.

　When the Twelfth Herrscher, the Herrscher of Corruption, Rin, truly awakened, the rampant Honkai energy and the undead transformed by it caused incalculable damage to the headquarters of the Firemoth.

　In this catastrophe, even Senator William, Moros's representative in the Fire Moths, was not spared.

　He was corrupted by excessive Honkai energy, ultimately transforming into a zombie assassin and dying a gruesome death.

　Under Yu Hua's iron fist.

　Without Congressman William's access to information, Morrow's ability to perceive the internal turmoil within the Firemoth dropped significantly.

　Alicia and Eden would indeed mention some trivial matters in their daily communications with him, but they would never reveal all the secrets of the Firemoth's inner workings like Senator William did.

　It wasn't that they couldn't do it, but rather that Moros, as a necromancer, didn't want his beloved to be caught in a dilemma.

　Whether it's Miss Pink Fairy or Eden, they both have deep feelings for the organization Firemoth.

　Knowing this, Moros naturally didn't want to hurt their friendship for some trivial information.

　What's more, they were now lying peacefully beside him, far away from the turmoil at the headquarters of the Firemoth.

　Gazing at the beautiful face of Alicia sleeping soundly beside him, and feeling the warmth of Eden on the other side, Moros couldn't help but swallow.

　However, he forcibly suppressed the impulsive fire that was about to ignite in his heart and tightly reined in his already somewhat wandering thoughts.

　They were exhausted last night, and he feared their bodies wouldn't be able to handle any more pleasure.

　In addition...

　The thought that Velvie had left the demiplane with Mebius stirred in Moros's mind that he should go and visit them first.

　In the blink of an eye, a flash of light, symbolizing teleportation magic, suddenly shone, and the necromancer vanished silently from the soft bed.

　The next moment, with another flash of magical light, he appeared on the other side of the room.

　With a wave of his hand, the blankets that had been scattered around him floated up gently and silently, covering Alicia and Eden.

　After making sure everything was in order, Moros turned around, straightened his clothes, and left the room with light steps.

　Earth, the Australian continent, Queensland.

　During the recent Twelfth Great Honkai Impact, Rin, who awakened as the Herrscher of Erosion, used her power of [Erosion] to control the Moth of Fire system and launch ballistic missiles carrying Honkai energy fission bombs at all human settlements on the planet.

　However, because this comprehensive research center, which was built under the personal supervision of the necromancer and given to Mebius, was not located in a bustling city, it miraculously avoided the attack of the Honkai energy fission bomb.

　In fact, the research base hidden deep in the Victoria Desert was also fortunate enough to avoid a devastating ballistic missile attack for the same reason.

　The fundamental motive behind Ling's ballistic missile attack was revenge against human civilization.
