Necromancer, but pre-collapse civilization

　Moros was well aware that his relationship with the powerful figures in Fuyuan City was a classic case of mutual exploitation.

　Therefore, Moros always had a backup plan for those Childe-level vampires that were handed over to the powerful and wealthy in Fuyuan City.

　Although limited by Moros's knowledge of magic, these backup plans were unable to remotely curse Childe-level vampires, but they could still indicate the vampires' locations and display their life status to Moros.

　Just now, Moros keenly sensed the feedback from his backup plan—three of the vampires that had been transformed had died.

　That shouldn't be the case. Are those bureaucrats really that impatient?

　Frowning, Moros decided to personally go to the place where the three vampires died to find out what had happened.

　He then opened a demiplane portal and returned to the cemetery city.

　Upon setting foot on the land of the cemetery city, Moros immediately located the vengeful spirits he had left in New City.

　Immediately afterwards, he opened the demiplane portal again and headed to the city where three Childe-level vampires were buried.

　However, as he stepped out of the passage, Moros's expression instantly turned serious.

　As a legendary necromancer, despite his lack of control over his power, Moros still possesses some of the basic abilities of a legendary spellcaster.

　At this moment, he clearly sensed that an abnormal energy permeated the surrounding environment, with a concentration far exceeding the normal range.

　Knowing exactly what kind of world he was in, Moros immediately realized that this was a sign of the impending collapse.

　So, those vampires weren't dissected, but were attacked and killed by Honkai Beasts?

　Having made this deduction in his mind, Moros hesitated for a moment before deciding to resolve the Honkai event.

　This wasn't because Moros suddenly had a change of heart.

　Moros is

　Necromancer!

　Talking about morality with a necromancer is utterly ridiculous.

　Even when he first became a necromancer, he still retained a certain amount of conscience. But now, after studying necromancy for a long time and making good progress in this area, Moros's moral bottom line has become extremely flexible.

　His decision to resolve this collapse was entirely based on considerations of his own interests.

　In this era destined to perish at the hands of the Herrscher of the End, one must demonstrate power to earn respect.

　It's like the first country on Earth to invent nuclear weapons; they need to find a place to drop them so the whole world can see their terrifying destructive power. Otherwise, if people only hear you boasting but don't see the actual combat effects, how can they truly feel fear?

　Moros did not want to provoke the elite class on the planet too much, therefore, he could not arbitrarily choose a small country as a target to demonstrate his power.

　He had already learned from the powerful figures in Fuyuan City about the fall of the First Lawyer, the Lawyer of Reason.

　This made Moros even more wary of the Mu Continent regime, which was capable of killing the First Herrscher.

　He certainly didn't want to become a replacement for the Second Herrscher, giving the rulers of the previous civilization a lesson in advance.

　Therefore, he must avoid actions that could lead to misjudgment.

　In this situation, the only stage where Moros can truly demonstrate his power is actually the Honkai event.

　Having made the decision, Moros naturally began to take action.

　"Come out! My servants!"

　As Moros's chanting echoed in the air, a deep blue demiplane portal suddenly opened on the streets of Newco City.

　Accompanied by the rustling sound of bones grinding together, countless skeleton archers and plague zombies poured out of the demiplane portal.

　Although the attributes of the two graveyard units, Skeleton Archers and Plague Zombies, are so poor that they pose almost no real threat to the Honkai minions—Dead Soldiers and Honkai Beasts.

　However, with the attribute bonuses from Moros, they are still able to put up a fight against low-level zombies and Honkai Beasts.

　After all, Moros's high [Attack] attribute of 20 and [Defense] attribute of 62 means that even the lowest-level skeleton archer can have 21 attack power.

　Such attack power is comparable to an anti-material sniper rifle enhanced with Honkai energy, which is enough to deal with low-level assassins and rush-class Honkai beasts.

　Besides the skeleton archers and plague zombies who serve as cannon fodder (crossed out) at the grassroots level of the legion, there are even more formidable beings among the undead soldiers pouring out of the demiplane portal.

　A vampire count wielding a dark green enchanted greatsword and dressed in medieval noble attire; a great lich carrying a skull staff and a magic codex at his waist; and a grim reaper wielding an enchanted war scythe several meters tall, exuding an aura of death…

　These mid-to-high-ranking undead are the true backbone of Moros's undead army.

　Only after a ghostly dragon roared and burst out of the demiplane portal did Moros calmly close the portal connecting Earth and the demiplane.

　Although the number of undead forces that entered Earth through the demiplane portal this time did not exceed that of the raid on Y City, their quality was vastly different.

　As for why only such a small portion of the undead forces were deployed, Moros had his own reasons.

　Although it was to demonstrate his power, Moros did not want to reveal all his trump cards to the former elites of the civilization.

　He knew that maintaining a certain degree of mystery and deterrence was equally important.

　Given the size of the undead legion, it was only natural that they were discovered without Moros casting any campaign spells to conceal them.

　Sensing the presence of the army of the dead, the undead soldiers and Honkai beasts in New City stopped wandering aimlessly and quickly assembled into an army, launching a fierce attack on Moros and his undead army.

　On the streets, the Knight-class Honkai Beasts, in orderly formation, charged towards the undead army like medieval knights charging into battle.

　Following this surge of attack, dozens of ballista-class Honkai Beasts began to gather Honkai energy, preparing to launch powerful Honkai energy projectiles to completely destroy the undead soldiers' formation.

　At the same time, three purple and white, gorilla-like tank-class Honkai Beasts, with their thick forelimbs, stepped over the ballista-class Honkai Beasts that were preparing to launch an attack, and charged towards the undead army along with the knight-class Honkai Beasts.

　Behind the Honkai Beasts, thousands of suicide soldiers also joined the battle.

　They followed closely in the footsteps of the Honkai Beasts and launched a fierce charge against the undead army's formation.

　In the sky, hordes of rushing-class Honkai Beasts sped toward the swarm of vengeful spirits led by Ghost Dragon.

　The Honkai disaster that struck New City was ultimately just a small-scale Honkai disaster.

　With the creation of numerous high-ranking assassins, the remaining Honkai energy was no longer sufficient to form powerful Honkai beasts of the Temple or Warlord classes.

　Even so, this Honkai army, which gathers more than 90% of the remaining Honkai forces in New City, should not be underestimated.

　At least the Mu Continent's military would need to deploy a division-level force to deal with this Honkai Legion.

　Armored forces.

Chapter 75 Meteor Shower and Aerial Combat

　Standing atop the ferocious head of the Ghost Dragon, gazing at the charging Honkai Beasts that surged towards the horde of vengeful spirits like a tidal wave, a dangerous smile gradually appeared on Moros's face.

　He slowly raised his staff and began chanting eerie incantations.

　As the incantation was chanted, the air around Moros began to surge, and a powerful energy began to gather.

　"Meteor shower!"

　Under Moros's control, a massive cloud of fire, composed entirely of fire elements, rapidly condensed above the Assault-class Honkai Beasts.

　Immediately afterwards, huge balls of lava fire fell rapidly from the fiery clouds like meteors, crashing heavily into the swarm of Advance-class Honkai Beasts with deafening roars.

　"Boom~Boom~Boom~"

　The ordinary Honkai Beasts that had advanced were so vulnerable in the face of this destructive power that they didn’t even have a chance to struggle before being instantly burned to charcoal by the lava fireball.

　Even the more elite Rush-class Honkai Beasts, such as the Super Rush-class Honkai Beast, the Crimson Sakura Rush Beast, and the Time Rippers, while possessing powerful defenses, were struggling against the relentless onslaught of lava fireballs.

　However, thanks to their superior defense, they survived despite their severe injuries.

　However, this devastating attack did not end there.

　After a large number of Rush-class Honkai Beasts were reduced to ashes by the bombardment of lava fireballs, the remaining lava fireballs did not stop. They continued to fall at an astonishing speed, crashing down on the Ballista-class Honkai Beasts on the ground like giant meteorites.

　As we all know, the Honkai energy projectiles condensed by the ballista-class Honkai Beasts are extremely powerful. At this moment, the Honkai energy projectiles of the ballista-class Honkai Beasts that were hit by the lava fireballs were instantly detonated by the impact of the lava fireballs.

　"boom!!!"

　A deafening explosion rang out, and the entire city of Xinke trembled amidst the continuous blasts.

　At that moment, the sky above New City seemed to be set ablaze, the flames of the explosion turning half the sky red.

　Under this round of [Meteor Shower] attacks, the ballista-class Honkai Beasts, along with a large number of Ranger Death Knights and Assault-class Honkai Beasts, were reduced to ashes and disappeared in the flames of the explosion.

　If it were an army composed of ordinary people, no matter how well-trained they were, they would probably be shocked and at a loss in the face of such a sudden and terrifying explosion.

　However, whether it was the undead legion composed of graveyard units or the Honkai Beasts and Death Soldiers who acted in accordance with the will of the Cocoon of the End, they all seemed unaffected and continued to carry out their missions steadfastly.

　Unless they receive orders from a higher authority, they will not hesitate to launch a fearless offensive against the other party in accordance with previous instructions.

　Knowing this, the necromancer did not stop after successfully casting [Meteor Shower], but continued to chant the incantation for the next spell.

　This time, the battle spell he chose was far superior to the previous level four spell, [Meteor Shower].

　Yes, the necromancer is currently chanting the incantation for the renowned level five dark magic, 【Netherworld Curse ()】, which is famous among the many battle spells in the world of Ashan.

　Moros believed that once the fifth-level dark magic [Curse of the Underworld] descended upon this battlefield, the battle would come to an end.

　Although Honkai Beasts are silicon-based life forms, they clearly do not belong to the Hell or Graveyard factions.

　In other words, Honkai Beasts are not immune to the damage from [Netherworld Curse].

　As long as they are not immune to the power of the [Netherworld Curse], then with Moros's high curse power attribute of 42 points, the [Netherworld Curse] he casts will surely be able to completely wipe out this Honkai legion composed of Honkai Beasts and Death Soldiers.

　However, before Moros completes the incantation and releases the [Curse of the Underworld], the undead army must rely on its own strength to withstand the enemy's fierce offensive.

　The flying, rush-class Honkai Beasts stand out among the Honkai legions in New City due to their exceptional speed.

　Therefore, with the entire ballista-class Honkai Beasts wiped out, they became the first Honkai Beasts to come into contact with the undead legion.

　"Roar!"

　Accompanied by the roar of the Ghost Dragon, a dark and deadly dragon breath swept across the sky with overwhelming force, heading straight for the swarm of Advance-class Honkai Beasts.

　Dozens of Assault-class Honkai Beasts were shot down under the baptism of the Death Dragon's Breath.

　However, even more Rush-class Honkai Beasts stubbornly broke through the barrier of the Death Dragon's Breath and approached the flying undead at an astonishing speed.

　Their gleaming wing blades were enveloped in a hazy purple glow.

　Faced with the charge of the rushing Honkai Beasts, the vengeful spirits did not flinch.

　Under the necromancer's will, these vengeful spirits, like a surging tide, launched a fierce counterattack against the charge of the rushing Honkai Beasts.

　Vengeful spirits are the real deal.

　The units in the Graveyard faction are immune to the [Netherworld Curse].

　Therefore, Moros need not worry that his carefully prepared campaign spells might accidentally harm these loyal servants.

　Although the vengeful spirits are far inferior to the Assault-class Honkai Beasts in terms of basic attack and defense attributes, with the powerful attribute bonus from Moros, they can demonstrate combat power comparable to the Assault-class Honkai Beasts by having a speed that is on par with them.

　It is precisely because of this strength that even though the [incorporeal] characteristic that they have always relied on has been broken by the Honkai energy condensed on the wings of the Advance-class Honkai Beasts, the Wraiths are still able to firmly withstand the fierce attacks of the Advance-class Honkai Beasts.

　"puff!"

　As the wing blade of the Ascension-class Honkai Beast slashed through the air, a mournful howl rang out.

　The vengeful spirit's body was severed at the waist by sharp blades imbued with Honkai energy, instantly turning its once intact form into a mangled mess.

　For living creatures, even a powerful dragon, this level of injury would be fatal.

　However, for undead units, especially spirit units like wraiths, while such injuries dealt them a heavy blow, they did not immediately end their lives.

　The consequence of failing to kill the vengeful spirit in one blow is that this rush-class Honkai Beast must withstand the vengeful spirit's fierce counterattack.

　"Zi-"

　With a sharp, piercing sound, as if shattering glass, the vengeful spirit's sharp claws mercilessly tore open the hard shell of the Assault-class Honkai Beast, reaching its softer flesh inside.

　"Jie Jie~"

　With a sinister laugh, the vengeful spirit brandished its claws, attempting to tear the heavily wounded Honkai Beast apart completely.

　However, its efforts failed.

　Despite being severely injured by the attack of the vengeful spirit, this rush-class Honkai Beast seemed completely unconcerned about the claws residing within its body. It forcefully swung its wing blades, imbued with Honkai energy, and cleaved the vengeful spirit in two from the center.

　This time, the vengeful spirit, having suffered damage exceeding the threshold, finally vanished from the skyline of New City amidst its wails.

　Before the rushing-class Honkai Beast, which had just killed a vengeful spirit, could react, another vengeful spirit appeared in front of it like a ghost and tore it in two with lightning speed.

Chapter 76 Combined Spells and Underworld Curses

　Just as the vengeful spirits and the rushing-class Honkai Beasts were locked in fierce combat in the sky above New City, on the ground battlefield, the Great Lichs were also busily preparing their combined spell.

　[The Cloud of Death]!

　Under the precise control of the Grand Lich Sorcerer Corps, a massive amount of death magic was cleverly gathered together, gradually condensing into a yellowish-green cloud of filth.
