Necromancer, but pre-collapse civilization

　Whether it's utilizing the characteristic of [fast flight] to swiftly traverse the battlefield and launch attacks with lightning speed.

　Alternatively, by utilizing the [Honkai Energy Manipulation] skill, the powerful force it possessed as a Judgment-class Honkai Beast can be replicated to instantly defeat the enemy.

　Alternatively, it could unleash a [Tornado Storm] comparable to a level 5 destructive spell, engulfing the enemy and causing devastating damage.

　Hanuman was able to prove his legendary status as an undead through his actions.

　After completing the transformation of the legendary undead behemoth [Hanuman], Moros devoted himself entirely to the in-depth study of the magical art of [Light Magic].

　Although for a necromancer, learning [light magic] is somewhat of a frivolous pursuit.

　However, considering the effect of the level 5 Light Magic [Resurrection], it is essential to truly master this magical skill, rather than simply relying on the hero panel for operation.

　[Reincarnation]: Revives living creatures that have died on your side.

　This is resurrection!

　And it has no side effects!

　Although this level 5 Light Magic has the restriction of requiring the remains of the dead, this cannot obscure its irreplaceable value.

　It turns out that the necromancers of the Ashan world generally keep their distance from [light magic], and there's a reason for that.

　Even though Moros was already a demigod-level necromancer who had undergone four leaps in his life level, he still encountered numerous difficulties when learning [Light Magic].

　In particular, as the research deepened, a fierce conflict arose between the pure death magic within him and the positively biased magic generated by [Light Magic].

　That is to say, he is already a demigod-level spellcaster, possessing enough mental strength and spellcasting ability to reconcile these two completely different energies.

　Otherwise, the mere clash of these energies would be enough to severely injure any necromancer.

　However, even with Moros's mediation, the intertwining and collision of these two diametrically opposed energies within his body brought him intense pain.

　However, considering the sunk costs already invested in this research, Moros had to grit his teeth and persevere, continuing to push forward the research process.

　The necromancer's efforts were not in vain.

　After countless trials and fine-tuning, Moros's research finally made a breakthrough.

　He skillfully replaced the positive attribute magic power generated from his in-depth study of [Light Magic] with the death magic power that he was more familiar with.

　While this shift has led to a reduction in the effectiveness of some aspects of the [Light Magic] spell, the sacrifice is clearly acceptable compared to the sharp decline in power caused by the previous energy conflict.

　Just like splitting bamboo, once the top few sections are split open, the remaining part naturally splits along the cut.

　After Moros successfully solved the biggest problem for necromancers studying [Light Magic], his research progressed at an unstoppable pace, advancing by leaps and bounds.

　In just over half a year, the necromancer completely mastered the magic of [Light Magic].

　At that very moment, the experience points he received raised his hero level by one level, bringing him to level 33.

　【Trait: Spellcasting Demigod (Magic Amplification, Spell Power Amplification)】

　After advancing to level 33, Moros took a short break to experience the new changes brought about by his increased strength before throwing himself back into the ocean of magical research.

　This time, however, his gaze was fixed on the most unique one among the universal campaign spells of the Ashan world.

　That is the fifth-level destructive magic, [Doomsday Judgment], which is comparable to the legendary magic in the Toril system.

　Don't be fooled by the fact that Moros used this destructive magic in the Secret Wars and the battle to annihilate the Fourth Herrscher, the Herrscher of the Wind.

　In reality, he was simply performing player-style actions through the hero panel, rather than casting spells using his own spellcasting abilities.

　This is certainly very inappropriate for a spellcaster of demigod rank.

　Therefore, Moros decided to truly master this legendary magic, integrate it into his own spellcasting system, and make it a part of his power.

　In the days that followed, the necromancer, like a devout and studious apprentice, immersed himself in the mysteries of the Doomsday Judgment.

　In the library of the Magic Guild, he perused countless books about this magic.

　Records and files.

　Moros meticulously examined and pondered every rune and every incantation, attempting to understand the meaning and power behind them.

　At the same time, he frequently traveled to the desolate lands of the demiplane, repeatedly testing and casting this level-five battle spell on this lonely land.

　This was certainly not a smooth journey.

　In fact, most of the time, such experiments end in failure.

　But this is not without meaning.

　Each failure allowed him to gain a deeper understanding of the essence and laws of magic, bringing him closer to the true meaning of the "Doomsday Judgment".

　As time went on, Moros's understanding of the Doomsday Judgment deepened, and his spellcasting abilities continued to improve.

　Finally, through tireless efforts, he successfully inscribed the [Doomsday Judgment] spell into his spellbook.

　At this point, a year and a half had passed since the end of the fourth Great Collapse.

Chapter 231 The Divine Key Unveiled

　Time is the fairest measure on this planet, impartially allocating the same share to everyone.

　A year and a half has passed, witnessing Moros's solid steps forward on the path to becoming a demigod.

　Similarly, this period also provided Vervi with enough space to delve into the research field she loved.

　Ever since receiving the Herrscher Core of the Fourth Herrscher, the Herrscher of Wind, from Morros, Velvet has been pondering how to use it.

　After countless deliberations and in-depth discussions with her various personalities, she finally made a choice.

　She intends to transform this Herrscher core into an unprecedented god-slaying weapon.

　To wield the power of God's apostles with a human body!

　Just imagining that breathtakingly magnificent scene was enough to make Vervi's heart race and her blood boil.

　and……

　Recalling the two encounters with the Herrscher that the necromancer had shared with her, Velvi was certainly aware that the world was undergoing tremendous changes.

　In this increasingly unfamiliar era, she longed to contribute her strength to her partner, Morros.

　To realize this wish, Velvet chose to use the Herrscher Core as the main material and Soul Steel, a versatile material developed by the Firemoth, as the base material to create this god-slaying weapon.

　This will be the culmination of her wisdom and determination to date, and her first answer sheet in achieving her goal.

　Soul Steel, an ultra-high strength material developed under the leadership of Dr. Mei, is essentially a metal block composed of hundreds of millions of nanorobots.

　Since its inception, it has rapidly become a treasure of contemporary materials science, occupying a pivotal position in almost all cutting-edge scientific research fields.

　Despite Moth's continuous efforts to expand its Soul Steel production line to meet growing demand, this advanced material remains in short supply.

　In the conventional historical narrative, it would undoubtedly be a difficult contest for Vervie, as the head of the Moth Chaser Engineering Department, to compete with the research institutions of major powers for Soul Steel production quotas.

　However, for Velvi in ​​this world, obtaining enough Soul Steel for her research was not a problem at all.

　This beautiful girl simply flirted with Moros and obtained enough Soul Steel for her to research and manufacture god-slaying weapons.

　This is easy to understand.

　Representatives William and Harry, who have already sided with Morrow, are members of the Moth of Fire Council.

　Although their influence within the Council of Firemoths is limited, and their position as representatives of necromancers is rather delicate, the two hold a rather delicate position within the Council.

　However, there are advantages and disadvantages. When they clearly informed the other members of the Firemoth Council that this was a request made personally by the necromancer, obtaining a portion of the Soulsteel finished products was not actually too difficult.

　After all, this is not about coveting the Soul Steel technology, but merely about the "reasonable" allocation of the finished products.

　In this situation, even if it's necessary to cut in line, the Moth of Fire councilors will not clash with the necromancer.

　Moros's infamous reputation was built on endless blood and corpses.

　In the eyes of the Firemoth Council members, including Eugene, Vincent, and Wang, who wield considerable influence, satisfying the necromancers' small quota of Soulsteel products was clearly a wise and strategic choice.

　The facts have fully demonstrated that in this world, as long as you are strong enough and crazy enough, your will is the big picture itself.

　Getting back to the main point, after obtaining enough Soul Steel, Velvi's research work entered a fast track.

　The workshop, which was originally carefully managed by mechanical assistants controlled by the research base's artificial intelligence, is now filled with countless abandoned blueprints for god-slaying weapons.

　They piled up like mountains, silently telling the story of the hardships and tireless efforts that Vervier experienced on her journey to explore the unknown.

　These drawings clearly show every spark of inspiration from Vervière, every reflection after a failure, and the traces of her continuous revisions and improvements to the design.

　visible.

　They bear witness to Vervi's unwavering pursuit of scientific research and record her continuous self-improvement.

　Countless failures, countless restarts.

　No matter what failures and difficulties she encountered, Vilvi refused to bow to fate. Instead, she continued her research with even stronger faith and fighting spirit.

　Finally, on a quiet night, a deafening explosion rang out from the research base in the Victoria Desert.

　To Vilvi, the voice was like heavenly music, announcing the birth and success of her latest god-slaying weapon design.

　At this moment, all the waiting and all the effort turned into this resounding cheer.

　Moros's expression was slightly subtle as he took the long-handled staff from Vilvie.

　Although he had long anticipated that his actions would trigger a series of butterfly effects, the necromancer was still somewhat surprised when he actually saw the staff.

　The Key of God has actually evolved into this form... It's truly... extremely interesting!

　As a demigod-level spellcaster with a safe escape route, Moros certainly has the right to give such an evaluation.

　"So? With this god-slaying weapon in hand, am I worthy to stand beside you and fight alongside you?"

　"Vilvie asked expectantly."

　Her eyes gleamed with a longing for Morros's approval, completely unaware of the turmoil churning within her partner's heart.

　Vervi's question brought Morros back from his reverie.

　He gently stroked the surface of the staff, feeling the subtle Honkai energy fluctuations flowing within it, and once again expressed his sincere admiration for Velvi's creativity and wisdom.

　However, Moros knew the cruelty and danger of the battlefield, and he absolutely did not want his beloved to be in danger.

　Even with the blessing of the Divine Key, Velvet is only a low-level mage. Compared to those Herrschers who have a high margin for error, she is still far behind.

　So he looked at Vervies tenderly and said with deep affection and concern.

　“My dear, I must remind you that while this god-slaying weapon is powerful, it cannot completely bridge the gap between humans and Herrschers. Your safety will always be my top priority.”

　Feeling the deep affection and concern in Morros's words, a warm feeling welled up in Vervi's heart.

　She nodded gently and responded softly.

　“I understand, Moros, I will not act rashly.”

　Hearing Vilvie's promise, Moros nodded in satisfaction, and then asked.

　"So, does this god-slaying weapon already have a name?"

　Vervi shook her head, a radiant smile blooming on her perfect face.
