Collapse, how did I become the Devil King of Destruction while playing a game?

Everything in human civilization must start anew.

Vervi felt that love wasn't only present in this Fire Moth base. Her memories from her dream revealed that Fire Moth bases existed all over the world, including some specialized strategic reserve bases that stored large quantities of materials that could be preserved for a long time.

Human civilization can continue as long as those strategic reserve bases can be found and accessed.

However, the first important question we need to address is how to get to those bases.

Building a car capable of long-distance travel isn't the problem, but what about fuel? After the extinction of human civilization and the inertization of Honkai energy, the remaining Honkai reactors are basically all destroyed. How do we find those bases and move their supplies over?

Simply relying on fusion warriors is like a drop in the ocean.

The future of these hundreds of people is uncertain, and whether they can even survive a week is a question.

"If only we could make good use of those Divine Keys," Velvi sighed.

She remembered the existence of those Divine Keys, each of which was an extremely powerful weapon. But now, Velvi only felt that she was being stupid in her dream. Why did she have to forge most of the Divine Keys into weapons, while the others were simply unusable, or rather, there were no Divine Keys at all that could be used to rebuild civilization?

Of the 12 Divine Keys, 8 are weapons, the 2nd Divine Key is simply a locomotive, the 4th Divine Key is floating in space, the 5th Divine Key is a large freezer, and only the 1st Divine Key is somewhat useful.

But Velvet didn't know where the First Divine Key had been hidden by the higher-ups of the Firemoth. The Divine Keys left behind at the Firemoth base were either useless or not there. Or rather, their rudimentary application of the Herrscher Core remained superficial.

The more Wilvi thought about it, the more irritable and depressed she felt.

Human civilization at present doesn't even qualify as civilization, because humans don't even have cooked food to eat, so how can we talk about civilization? Although Qianjie can create sparks, what about food? There is absolutely no food. All the large plants and animals here have been completely destroyed, and there isn't even enough grass to eat.

Wilvi pounded her head hard and sighed, utterly exhausted.

"And those nutrient solutions can also serve as food." Wilvi felt fortunate that, for the time being, humans did not need to worry about food and nutrient sources, as the nutrient solutions in those jars containing humans were just what humans needed to survive.

The premise is that these nutrient solutions are not used up.

Almost immediately, Vilvi thought about what would happen to these hundreds of people if they ran out of nutrient solutions.

Modern people don't need to starve for three days; missing just one meal would be enough for them to protest and rebel. Starving for three days would mean they're already waiting to die.

If... thump thump thump!

Suddenly, Wilvi started frantically banging her head on the ground, the thumping sounds drawing the attention of the surrounding crowd. But Wilvi seemed oblivious, continuing to bang her head on the ground. She felt she couldn't think anymore, her head was about to explode!

These things shouldn't be her responsibility at all! Where's May?! Oh, she's discussing with Kevin how to destroy 'humanity'.

"How long can the humans here hold out?" Velvi thought optimistically, calculating the future. Perhaps the humans could survive and rebuild civilization.

Meanwhile, Vilvi pessimistically calculated how long it would take for humanity to be completely wiped out.

P.S.: Something happened a few days ago, and now it's Qingming Festival. What a mess.

Chapter 346 Ensuring Students' Peace of Mind at School

"These are turbulent times."

Looking at the report before him, the mayor of Canghai City sighed with melancholy.

The terrorists have disappeared from Canghai City, but they went abroad to cause trouble. They publicly killed the world-famous musician Eden and burned down the Sydney Opera House, killing hundreds of people.

Canghai City has now raised its alert level across the board, and all students of St. Freya Academy are under protection to prevent terrorists from continuing to kill students of St. Freya Academy.

However, this was not the end of it. Before the terrorists were completely eliminated, other countries started causing trouble.

The biological laboratory, originally located on an artificial island in the sea near Canghai City, was invaded by foreign spies. This biological laboratory was originally led by Dr. Möbius, who also created many scientific research results in this laboratory.

However, following Dr. Mebius's death, terrorists relentlessly murdered students of St. Freya Academy, drawing intense interest from many countries around the world.

The mayor of Canghai City was troubled by this: not only were terrorists eyeing the city, but other countries were also keeping an eye on St. Freya Academy.

Everyone wanted to understand what kind of magic the students of St. Freya Academy possessed that made those terrorists willing to go to any lengths to kill them.

In addition to a large number of foreign spies frantically probing everything about St. Freya College, universities from other countries, including those in China itself, have also made various exchange requests to St. Freya College.

This made the mayor of Canghai City want to grab the ties of those university presidents, both domestic and international, and ask them, "Are you just looking for trouble?"

St. Freya Academy is already in the eye of the storm, how can anyone want to add fuel to the fire!

"Mayor, the losses have been tallied. Please take a look," the mayor's secretary said as he walked into the office with a stack of documents.

His expression was somewhat solemn.

The mayor of Canghai City understood after glancing at the contents of the document.

Many of the data and research results in the Möbius Laboratory were stolen by foreign spies. Although the Canghai City police recovered some of them and arrested many spies, a considerable amount of the research data and results were still smuggled out of China.

The timing of those foreign spies' attack was too perfect. Currently, most of the attention in Canghai City is focused on the students of St. Freya Academy, while other places, including the special team sent by the central government, have not yet had time to react. They are all busy sorting out and investigating various information about St. Freya Academy.

Although the Möbius Laboratory was important, it was relatively small for St. Freya Academy, which gave foreign spies an opportunity to exploit the situation.

"Report it up. I can't make these decisions myself," the mayor of Canghai City said to his secretary after reviewing the documents.

Given the current complexity of the situation, the mayor of Canghai City is unable to make any decisions at this point. Although he will ultimately have to take the blame for any major problems, he doesn't care. He's already burdened with debts, and no one dares to take over his position anyway. He'll have to shoulder all the blame himself.

Late at night, the mayor of Canghai City was still processing documents. He couldn't handle the big issues, but the small ones still needed his attention.

After an unknown amount of time, the mayor breathed a sigh of relief and put down his pen. It was a rare moment of rest, and he could look out the window at the night view of Canghai City.

Just then, a phone call came in.

The mayor was somewhat surprised to find that it was a call from one of his own family members.

"Xiaoxiao, why are you calling?" the mayor asked seriously after answering the call.

He's very busy right now, with too many things to do in Canghai City, and he really doesn't have much time to communicate with his family. His family members even need to apply to call him.

However, the fact that his granddaughter called meant that his application had been approved.

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone.

"...Grandpa, I still want to apply to St. Freya Academy," the girl's voice reached the mayor's ears.

"..."

The mayor was taken aback.

His granddaughter has wanted to apply to St. Freya Academy since she was a child and has been working hard for it. The mayor is very confident in his granddaughter and believes she has a high chance of being admitted to St. Freya Academy in this year's college entrance examination.

However, after the recent terrorist attack on St. Freya Academy, the mayor directly allowed his granddaughter, who was traveling in Beijing, to stay in Beijing and take the entrance exam for a university in Beijing.

"..." The mayor didn't know what to say.

In the past, he would certainly have been very willing for his granddaughter to apply to St. Freya Academy. This academy, located in Canghai City, is famous for its many beautiful girls. Although it may seem like a "pretty face" academy, it is actually better than most universities. Its standards are world-class in all aspects. It's just that most people pay more attention to the appearance of St. Freya Academy students.

However, the terrorist attack forced the mayor to consider his granddaughter's safety and decide to let her stay in the capital and take the entrance exam for Beijing University.

He had also told his granddaughter about the dire situation, that the students of St. Freya Academy were in a very dangerous situation.

Now, however, her granddaughter still decides to apply to St. Freya Academy.

The phone remained silent for a long time.

"Are you really sure?" the mayor asked calmly.

"Um"

The mayor heard his granddaughter's firm voice.

"......good"

The mayor then hung up the phone, gazing at the night view outside the window with a deeply melancholy expression.

"Hey"

He sighed heavily.

"Old Li!"

The mayor shouted.

His secretary then entered the office, and the mayor could see that Old Li had quite a few dark circles under his eyes.

"Give me a copy of the data on high school applicants to St. Freya Academy in Canghai City this year."

Old Li nodded, and not long after, the new document was placed on the mayor's desk.

There's still some time before this year's college entrance exam, but many people are already discussing which universities to apply to, and many high schools have also compiled data on the colleges that their senior students want to apply to.

After looking at it, the mayor suddenly smiled.

St. Freya Academy is ranked number one.

The school that students at Canghai City High School most want to attend is St. Freya Academy, and it is far ahead of the second-ranked school. In fact, all the schools ranked below second combined cannot match St. Freya Academy.

This data only represents local high schools in Canghai City.

“My grandson and granddaughter also want to apply to St. Freya Academy, and they have been studying hard recently,” Old Li said with a complicated expression.

Upon hearing that the mayor wanted the data, he understood what was troubling the mayor; coincidentally, they were both troubled by the same thing.

Despite the terrorist attack on St. Freya Academy, even more students are now willing to risk their lives to apply.

"Those university presidents might be holding a grudge against St. Freya College for taking away their students," the mayor chuckled.

"What we need to do is actually quite simple."

"So that all students can study at school with peace of mind."

Chapter 347 Cold, Hard Numbers

Another meeting has begun.

May, Kevin, Mebius, Velvi, Eden, Thousand Calamities, and Aponia reunited to plan for the future.

However, apart from May and Kevin, no one else cared.

"Next, I plan to reproduce some technologies in the virtual world. Although many of these technologies are based on Honkai energy, they still have great reference value. In the future, if I want to awaken other Fusion Warriors, I will need stronger weapons and equipment in the virtual world."

No one responded.

Although Mebius and Vervi were listening, they were thinking about other things. Eden, Thousand Calamities, and Aponia didn't even look at Mebius and Kevin.

"I need your help with this, Möbius."

May looked at Möbius.

"So you mean you're actually going to create a terrorist organization in the virtual world?"

Mebius smiled, but there was no emotion in her eyes.

"...This is the necessary price," Kevin said coldly.

Yes, the price.

Mebius chuckled.

This is necessary, at a cost, in order to exact revenge on the so-called Honkai.

Weird.

Mebius did not refute it, nor did he have any interest in doing so.

Without studying the essence of Honkai and without addressing its problems, no matter how much effort is put in, the final result will be the same.

Honkai was never the root cause; the real reason was the release of Honkai-related things into the solar system, and those things are probably on the moon.

Unfortunately, May, Möbius, or Vervière could only gaze at the moon and sigh in vain.

Now, all they can do is bully ordinary people in the virtual world.

Mebius looked at Kevin indifferently.

To awaken the other Fusion Warriors... that's such a ridiculous reason that even Mebius doesn't believe it. It should be to find the 12th Herrscher.

As for the ordinary people affected during this period, don't ask, the answer is simply the price of revenge and collapse.

After discussing the follow-up plan, May and Kevin made a grand departure.

"Aren't you going to bother with ordinary people who come to the Honkai world?" Eden murmured after watching the two leave.

"What's the point of asking? What's the point of not asking? Can they really help manage these people?"

With her legs crossed, Vervier calmly answered Eden's question while carving on the clay tablet with a knife.

She's busy right now. Besides repairing some vehicles, she also has to manage all aspects of hundreds of people's lives, find and organize the data in the base, and figure out how to start the base's power supply, among a whole host of other things.

Well, a lot of things were written on clay tablets... What else could Velvi do? She couldn't find any usable paper or pen!

There is indeed a lot of paper in those abandoned human cities, but without special treatment, it is impossible to preserve it for a long time. Now, it will crumble at the slightest touch, and not even half a sheet can be used.

The Moth of Fire base does have some usable paper left, but the quantity is very limited.

Of course, Vervina could only use clay tablets to inscribe things, and Qianjie provided the flames to bake the clay tablets.
