Necromancer, but pre-collapse civilization

　For the sake of his own political future, the mayor of Fuyuan City resolutely decided to take a risk, gambling with the lives of his subordinates, and going all out to capture Moros.

　Despite his lingering doubts, the on-site commander, upon hearing the mayor's order, still proceeded with the arrest of the target.

　"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

　With the commander's order, the battle officially began.

　The SWAT officers gripped their assault rifles tightly, aimed at the figures ahead, and frantically pulled the triggers.

　In an instant, countless bullets rained down like a storm, rushing towards Moros, who was surrounded by fireballs.

　"It seems you don't value your own lives."

　【Circle of Winter】!

　As Moros spoke, a bone-chilling cold suddenly descended.

　In an instant, all the bullets fired at him were frozen in mid-air, turning into glistening ice beads.

　Kill them!

　Under the necromancer's will, the vengeful spirits that had been invisible revealed themselves and frantically pounced on the special police officers surrounding Moros.

　"Damn it! What is this thing?!"

　"Fire! Fire!"

　"Get away from me! Don't come any closer!"

　"..."

　The special police screamed in terror, unleashing a barrage of fire in an attempt to repel the onrushing vengeful spirits.

　However, the assault rifle bullets were useless against the vengeful spirits, offering only some psychological comfort to the special police officers without causing any real harm.

　In less than half a minute, the vengeful spirits easily tore apart all the special police officers surrounding Moros.

　Even the police officers of Fuyuan City, who were far behind the temporary police car defense line, were not spared.

　In this carnage, cries of agony rose and fell, as they transformed into blood-red flowers that bloomed across the land.

　Witnessing the tragic fate of their colleagues, the three helicopters circling in the sky panicked and began to climb.

　However, it was too late at that moment.

　Compared to the unupgraded ghost, the vengeful spirit is much faster.

　The speed of a ghost is comparable to that of a civilian helicopter, while the speed of a vengeful spirit is comparable to that of an armed helicopter.

　In addition, the vengeful spirits were able to freely penetrate ordinary armor, and the three police helicopters that were struggling to climb were quickly overtaken by the vengeful spirits.

　As the pilots were brutally torn apart by the vengeful spirits, the three police helicopters began to lose control, swaying left and right.

　Soon after, they collided with each other, turning into three huge fireballs that crashed to the ground.

　"Unbelievable!"

　Ignoring the severed limbs scattered all over the street, Moros uttered these words and began to read the information contained in the soul of the senator he had extracted.

　He wanted to find out exactly how many people were involved in what happened back then.

　Moros's fingers gently touched the storage of the senator

　The magic crystal of the soul begins to read the memories within.

　“Councilor Hu, Mayor Rang, Secretary Kober…”

　As each name appeared, Moros's face grew increasingly grim, and the anger in his heart intensified.

　He will not let any of those who participated in the Y City incident six years ago go!

　When the last name came to mind, Moros turned to reading other important information contained within the senator's soul.

　The first thing presented to him was a list of the members of parliament's families.

　"Hmph! At this point, you still want to resist? How laughable!"

　Sensing the senator's inner turmoil, Moros sneered, a cold, sharp smile curving his lips.

　He stared at the magical crystal in his hand that contained the senator's soul, listening to the wailing of the soul within.

　"Just watch, I will find them all and reunite you with your family."

　Moros spoke slowly, his voice filled with determination and coldness.

　These words were like sharp blades, piercing the senator's soul and causing him to struggle even more frantically.

　"Don't worry, a family should always be together, hehehe..."

　With a cruel smile on his face, Moros opened a demiplane portal and led the vengeful spirits back to his demiplane territory.

　Behind him, hundreds of skeleton soldiers broke free from the shackles of flesh and blood, and with heavy steps, they traversed the demiplane portal one after another.

　The demiplane portal slowly closed only after the last skeleton soldier had completely left Earth.

Chapter 38: Follow-up and Execution

　Moros left Fuyuan City, but the influence he left behind lingered and was difficult to dissipate in a short time.

　Putting aside everything else, the streets filled with the corpses of hundreds of special police officers and regular police officers are enough to give the bureaucrats of Fuyuan City a headache.

　The limbs torn from human bodies by vengeful spirits lay scattered forlornly on the streets, a truly horrifying sight.

　The blood had congealed, mingling with the wrecked police car and fallen weapons, creating a chilling scene.

　After weighing the pros and cons, the mayor of Fuyuan City negotiated with representatives of several families who control the metropolitan area where the city is located.

　They discussed and argued, but eventually reached a consensus.

　With the support of these families, the mayor decisively issued the order.

　"Immediately contact the health department and have them send people to handle the bodies. At the same time, notify the news department to issue an official statement to calm the public."

　The mayor's order was quickly relayed.

　Health authorities dispatched a large number of personnel to the streets to clean up the debris.

　These cleaning staff wore protective suits, masks, and gloves in an attempt to mitigate the psychological impact of the cleaning process.

　However, when they saw the mutilated, bloody corpses with their own eyes, the intense nausea almost made them vomit.

　Nevertheless, for the meager wages they rely on to support their families, they have no choice but to endure the nausea and discomfort and continue cleaning up the blood and flesh scraps on the streets.

　Meanwhile, the news department of Fuyuan City also acted swiftly.

　They issued an official statement characterizing the incident as an extremely heinous act of terrorism and assured citizens that the government would do everything in its power to track down the perpetrators and seek justice for the victims.

　The press office also urged citizens to remain calm and not panic, and promised that the government would take all necessary measures to protect the safety of citizens.

　Furthermore, under the will of the true rulers of the urban cluster where Fuyuan City is located, various media outlets have also joined the ranks of guiding public opinion.

　Through various reports and statements, they successfully diverted people's attention from the tragedy, gradually covering up everything that happened in Fuyuan City.

　Through these measures, Fuyuan City gradually returned to a state of apparent calm.

　At least Eden, who was in the city signing a contract with an entertainment company, was unaware of anything other than the overt terrorist attacks.

　Moros did not pay much attention to what happened in Fuyuan City after he left.

　His goal was very clear: to find the other members of the congressman's family.

　Having obtained their exact location from the souls of the councilors, Moros rode the ghost dragon and swiftly searched for them.

　His actions were swift and decisive, without any hesitation or doubt.

　Thanks to his strong execution and Ghost Dragon's flight speed, comparable to a second-generation jet, Moros successfully cornered the vast majority of the councilor family members.

　At that moment, the senator's soul, imprisoned within the magic crystal, witnessed the end of the family he had fought for his entire life.

　Although a few ordinary family members escaped this calamity, their days of survival under Moros's relentless pursuit are numbered.

　Faced with Moros's pursuit, the senator's family did not sit idly by.

　They assembled their family's private army, attempting to confront this terrifying force by force.

　However, given the overwhelming disparity in strength, their resistance inevitably ended in failure.

　Amidst a shrill scream that seemed inhuman, the private army that the congressman's family had built with considerable resources, along with the family members they were protecting, were reduced to a pile of corpses.

　Level 5 Dark Magic: [Netherworld Curse]!

　Under the terrifying power of this battle spell, no living being within its range could escape its effects and perished one after another.

　After this battle, the senator's family was completely broken.

　After losing the protection of their family's private army, the family members who had not yet been killed either chose to go into hiding, trying to find a way to survive Moros's pursuit; or they sought help from other councilors, or even the Mu Continent government, hoping that they could lend a helping hand to fight against this terrifying force.

　In the main hall of the parliament building in the capital of Mu Continent, a member of a member of parliament's family passionately denounced Moros's actions, attempting to evoke the sympathy and support of other members of parliament.

　"That Honkai energy user broke the law..."

　"This uncontrolled force has caused enormous harm to society..."

　"In order to maintain order on the Mu Continent..."

　"..."

　His words were full of sincerity and determination; every word was like a pearl, resounding and powerful, and his impassioned voice echoed throughout the parliament hall.

　To some extent, it did indeed resonate with other members of parliament.

　The members of parliament in the building were deeply disgusted by someone like Morros.

　However, when it came to taking actual action, the lawmakers all chose to protect themselves.

　In their eyes, dividing up the interests held by the parliamentarian family was more important than dealing with the potential destabilizing factor of Morlos.

　Moros has demonstrated astonishing strength and ruthless methods through the assassination attempt in Fuyuan City.

　The lawmakers have already gathered a general understanding of Moros's information through their respective intelligence systems.

　They learned of Morlos's persecution of members of the congressman's family and were well aware of his danger.

　These powerful lawmakers are unwilling to follow in the footsteps of other lawmakers if they cannot deliver a fatal blow.

　Therefore, no member of parliament would want to easily provoke such a being.

　A "madman" who kills an entire family at the slightest disagreement, especially since this "madman" actually possesses such power.

　This level of deterrence is enough to keep people calm.

　After all, when others think you have nuclear weapons, you'd better actually have them.

　"you……"

　Seeing that the members of parliament were not prepared to support him, the member of the parliamentarian's family tried to persuade them further.

　But before he could finish speaking, a translucent claw pierced through his back, tearing out the heart of the member of the congressman's family.

　This happened so suddenly that before anyone else in the hall could react, it was all over.

　In full view of everyone, this member of the councilor's family was killed by a vengeful spirit in the heart of the continent, inside the main hall of the parliament building.

　What shocked the lawmakers even more was that these distinguished members of parliament were also present.

　The councilors were terrified when confronted by the vengeful spirit's eerie laughter.

　They cried out in despair, screaming shrilly; some were even stunned and helpless.

　In their desperate attempt to escape this terrifying place, they pushed and trampled each other, disregarding everything else to get out of the main hall.

　Although the vengeful spirit did not kill anyone more in the parliament building, the number of casualties in this incident still unexpectedly exceeded double digits due to the panic and chaos among the members of parliament.

Chapter 39 Settling the Feud

　Moros's use of vengeful spirits to carry out the massacre in the parliament building has thoroughly taught the rulers of the Mu Continent a lesson.

　Although Moros himself never showed up, the unique and terrifying existence of the vengeful spirit has fully revealed the mastermind behind this assassination attempt.

　However, faced with such a clear identity of the assassin, the councilors of Mu Continent all chose to turn a blind eye.

　There was no way around it; Moros had already proven with his actions that the security measures for the Mu Continent councilors were all just for show.

　He could easily kill any member of parliament by disregarding the security measures at the Parliament building.

　This was a huge shock to lawmakers who valued life.
