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

"Goodbye, goodbye! Doris can go even faster!"

Doris cheered and accelerated again, leaving the ghost fire train behind her completely, then crashed into another wall and burst out of the universe inside the wall.

A stone man silently came over to repair the wall.

"Akivili can't catch up, Akivili can't catch up, Ah-ha is so embarrassed, Ah-ha is so embarrassed!"

"Today I lost to a magical girl in space; she's incredibly fast."

Chapter 480 Current Situation

Solar System, St. Freya Space City Auditorium

Where is Doris?

The S-class magical girls were meeting in the Great Hall once again, but when they were almost all there, they suddenly realized that Doris was not there.

Selena did know where Doris was.

"Doris has gone out into the solar system, but she said it will take her a while to get back."

"Forget about Doris for now, let's discuss what to do about Rhine Labs, and why the higher-ups of various countries are dismantling Rhine Labs!"

Lucifer looked at everyone present and said.

Wei Hua sighed helplessly.

"There are also people within the high-level departments of various countries who disagree with this matter."

The matter concerning Rhine Labs was also the reason why Mika convened this meeting. The high-ranking officials of various countries did not inform the magical girls at all, but instead suddenly and swiftly dismantled Rhine Labs.

However, within each country, opinions on dismantling Rhine Lab are clearly divided. One group consists of Crystal International's partners who are unwilling to see Rhine Lab dismantled and are also supporters of human unification. The other group is quite diverse, including all sorts of people, but most of them reject unification, even dislike magical girls, and insist on human supremacy.

"The key question now is, why did they dare to act so directly?" Lailis pointed out the crux of Rhine Lab's problem.

Selena and the other magical girls from previous episodes nodded in agreement.

The establishment and expansion of Rhein Life Sciences was not smooth sailing. To develop into such a giant enterprise that transcends national borders, Director Muirsay naturally did his fair share of dirty tricks against those who stood in his way.

However, it was all done by some employees of RheinLife Science, ostensibly on the orders of RheinLife Science Chairman Christensen, and had nothing to do with Director Muirsay.

At first, most of the magical girls were unaware of those things, but over the past year, as Selena and others gradually took over various affairs of St. Freya, they learned from the hidden database within the Witch of Reason's Jewel what Director Muleseth had done back then.

Moreover, many magical girls unknowingly helped Director Muirse eliminate those who hindered the development of Rhine Lab's technology.

At that time, the first and second generation magical girls were beginning to cooperate with countries around the world, assisting the police in fighting criminals around the world. They would often get a lot of clues from some enthusiastic people, and follow the clues to arrest many criminals.

Looking back now, those enthusiastic people were all subordinates of Director Muirsay, and later employees who joined RheinLife Science.

However, the magical girls were unaware that many of Rhine Lab's employees were clones. Muirse had used the aftermath of the witch incident to create a lot of complete identity documents, and the database of the Witch of Reason's Jewel had also concealed a lot of inhumane technology.

In conclusion, the magical girls played a significant role in Rhine Life Sciences' development into such a massive corporation that transcends national borders, all without their knowledge.

Now, those who divided and dismantled Rhine Life Sciences must have taken advantage of the fact that Director Muirsey and many Rhine Life Sciences employees and senior executives died in the War of the Witch of Knowledge, leaving Rhine Life Sciences' branches in various places in disarray, which is why they made their move.

But there are still many magical girls around today. Why do these people dare to do this?!

“Let’s just take it back. We can’t let Director Muirsey’s hard work be taken away!” Lucifer said directly.

"Should we just take it back?" Mika also didn't want to see Rhine Life Sciences be divided up and dismantled, but her experience as the vice principal of St. Freya in handling affairs in various places made her start to worry about how to deal with the consequences.

And there's an even more important reason.

“Of course!” Lucifer tucked her blue hair behind her ear and looked intently at Wei Hua with her purple eyes.

"What will be the next steps? Who will take control of Rhine Lab?"

Mika looked intently at the magical girls present.

"I also don't want to see Director Muirsey's hard work taken away, but when we take it back, we must do a good job of handling the follow-up matters!"

"Can't we just keep things the way they are?" Vera asked, puzzled.

Of course, I also want things to stay the way they are!

However, knowing that Vera had always been a combat instructor at the academy and was always on guard against the threat of witches, and was more skilled in combat, Weihua didn't say much to Vera's question, but instead explained it directly to her.

"Rhine Life Sciences lost approximately 130,000 people in the War of the Witch of Knowledge. These were mostly mid-level and above employees at Rhine Life Sciences' headquarters and branches, and were the true backbone of Rhine Life Sciences..."

Wei'er didn't speak, and silently lowered her head.

Although she didn't know much about things outside of combat, she knew what that meant.

The deaths of 130,000 employees at the middle and higher levels are like the deaths of 130,000 military officers or civil servants at the middle and higher levels in a country. This is not just a matter of crippling injury, but a truly fatal event!

During the War of the Witches of Knowledge, the pilots who flew Rhine Labs' fighter jets, protecting the Enterprise and fighting a bloody battle against the controlled Shenzhou Air Force, were these mid-to-high-level Rhine Labs employees.

These RheinLife employees, who can fly planes, understand management, possess various professional knowledge, are also adept at interpersonal relationships, and are absolutely loyal to Muirsay, are the absolute backbone supporting RheinLife Science.

They threw themselves into the war and died on the battlefield. Also dying on the battlefield were many brave ordinary people who shared the same belief in fighting the witch. Many of them were members of the Crystal International Organization.

However, Wei Hua seemed unwilling to let Wei Er off the hook, and her next words struck Wei Er's heart like a heavy hammer.

"In addition, when Emilia was rebuilding Rhine Life Sciences' industrial zones in various locations, she also selected a group of new successors from Rhine Life Sciences' grassroots employees across the country and brought them to Rhine Life Sciences' headquarters, which had initially relocated to the Mu Continent, for intensive training."

"The Mu Continent..."

Wei Hua didn't continue.

Vera's face turned completely pale.

She finally understood, and it wasn't just her; the other magical girls also looked grave. They now realized that the reason why Rhine Labs was so easily dismantled and divided up was not as simple as it seemed on the surface.

Because of the devastating blows dealt by the War of the Witch of Consciousness and the subsequent Star Witch incident, Rhine Life Sciences had very few management personnel left.

"Wait a minute! How has Rhine Life Sciences maintained the status quo for the past year?" Vera suddenly came to her senses.

The other magical girls quickly came to their senses as well.

“Yes! Rhine Life Sciences’ branches around the world have been reporting everything as normal for the past year…” Selena’s voice suddenly fell silent as she spoke.

The other magical girls, who had just come to their senses, initially looked at the silent Selena and Mika with some confusion, but soon they seemed to realize something.

"The feast of dividing up Rhine Life Sciences began six months ago. I learned about it from Crystal International and the top brass of the unification faction."

Wei Hua spoke softly about what she had learned yesterday after a secret conversation with members of Crystal International and high-ranking members of the Unification Faction from various countries.

The reason why everything was normal for RheinLife Science in the past year was that many large private companies or some senior executives from various countries secretly took over the industrial zones of RheinLife Science's branches in various countries, which had completely lost a large number of middle and senior management employees.

They took over Rhine Lab and maintained a semblance of normalcy for the time being. Then, after becoming familiar with the place, the 10th Witch appeared and suddenly attacked, dismantling and dividing Rhine Lab.

The magical girls were unaware of this, as most of them were busy with various trivial matters. Rhine Labs, operating normally, naturally went unnoticed by the busy magical girls.

This matter was only recently discovered by the high-ranking members of the unification faction.

In fact, if the Rhine Life Sciences scandal hadn't been discovered by the Unification Faction's leaders, it probably would have been concealed by the human supremacist leaders of various countries for even longer, who would have continued to fabricate all sorts of normal false information.

After learning about the Unification Faction's discovery, the magical girls discussed the matter and quickly compiled all the information they knew.

Selena opened a holographic screen and, after discussing with the other magical girls, wrote down the most important current situation on the screen.

Rhine Life

Crystal International

"Moths drawn to the flame"

"Unification faction"

"Human supremacist"

"There's also a 10th witch!"

Chapter 481 Too Many People to Be in Two

Wei Hua drew an X on the screen for Rhine Lab.

"Rhine Life has been completely dismantled, and the remaining junior employees have been forced to join companies in various locations."

"Although we can take over Rhine Life's industrial area at any time, we don't have enough manpower or time to do so right now."

One of the magical girls couldn't help but ask.

"Are we just going to give up like this?"

Mika and Selena sighed together and drew a circle on the screen representing the 10th witch. Now the other magical girls understood.

This is temporary.

Wei Hua said firmly, then looked at the next one, Crystal International.

"Ever since Director Muirsey established Crystal International, this organization has always been among the general public, supporting the unification of humanity. However, we all know the outcome..."

The Crystal International Organization had a predecessor long ago, which was an organization established by the survivors of the Witch of Reason and the Witch of the Sky to support magical girls. It was also funded by Eden and was later incorporated and reorganized by Muirse into the Crystal International Organization.

The most famous symbol of members of the International Crystal Organization is the crystal flower they carry, mainly in three colors: purple, yellow, and pink.

During the Seventh Flame Witch Incident, Crystal International's members spanned all walks of life around the world, from high-ranking officials to ordinary people. However, after the Eighth Witch War, Crystal International suffered heavy losses, just like Rhine Lab.

Crystal International's headquarters are located on the continent of Mu. During the Star Witch incident, they were forced to enter the Underworld Sea and, like Rhine Lab, completely lost their bodies and brains, leaving only ordinary members of their branches in various places.

Wei Hua drew an X on Crystal International.

Wei Hua was quite somber. Anyone who saw the hard work of Sister Muirsey and Sister Emilia reduced to this state would feel immense heartache. But what pained them even more was their inability to revive Rhine Lab and Crystal International.

Next up is the next one.

"Moths drawn to the flame"

When the magical girls saw the next one, their hearts sank even deeper; this was still the culmination of Muirse's efforts.

St. Freya, Rhine Lab, Crystal International, and Moth of Fire were all founded by Muirsey and Emilia.

St. Freya takes the lead in nurturing magical girls, Rhine Lab takes the lead in economic and logistical support, Crystal International takes the lead in uniting people's hearts and minds, and Moth of the Flame takes the lead in uniting nations. The four parties complement each other and are intertwined with each other.

Rhine Life can provide ample financial security for students of Crystal International and St. Freya. Crystal International seeks students who can enroll in St. Freya. Moth of Fire leads the alliance of various countries and supports the development of Crystal International, Rhine Life, and St. Freya. St. Freya and Rhine Life can in turn promote Moth of Fire and Crystal International to accelerate the alliance of various countries.

It was the mutual promotion and influence of these four parties that led to the great unity between humans and magical girls at that time, and all that was needed was an opportunity to complete the unification of humanity.

The War of the Witches of Knowledge almost destroyed everything. Emilia did her best to rebuild a part of it, but was forced to enter the Underworld Sea with the continent of Mu during the Star Witch incident, and was completely destroyed.

"The Fire-Chasing Moth is currently in the same situation as Rhine Labs and Crystal International. In addition, the Fire-Chasing Moth scientific team is also researching the underworld at the Antarctic base."

Mika and the other magical girls were all hoping that Alicia and the Firemoth science team could successfully find Mu Continent and Emilia in the Dark Sea.

In the War of the Witches of Knowledge, the Fire Moth also suffered heavy losses. When the Fire Moth was founded by Muirseth, many of its members were elites from various countries. Later, when the countries began to fight together, their armies were basically under the command of the Fire Moth army. This Fire Moth coalition, composed of armies from various countries, fought hard in the War of the Witches of Knowledge until it was almost completely wiped out.

The magical girls felt even heavier as they looked at the Fire Moth with another X drawn on it. They could all feel the burden on their shoulders growing heavier, and some of the magical girls who couldn't handle the pressure were already crying softly.

Wei Hua continued.

"The leaders of the unification faction need no further introduction, but I've noticed they're currently being marginalized by various countries, and the reasons for this are still unknown."

However, the deeper reason, which Mika didn't reveal, was known to the other magical girls.

The unification of humanity has always been a consensus among the leaders of various countries. They all recognize that all of humanity must unite closely in order to work together to fight against the witch.

That was true, at least while Muirsey and Emilia were still around.

But now the unification faction is being marginalized, and people in various countries rarely hear propaganda about human unification anymore.

Mika and many other S-class magical girls didn't understand this, but in a sense, they did.

To unify humanity, a leader with sufficient strength, high prestige, ruthless methods, and strict discipline is needed to accomplish this great task.

Muirsey is fine, and so is Emilia.

But now no one can do it.

Alicia... never mind.

There was a moment of silence in the hall. Selena sighed, rallied herself, and then drew a question mark on the screen representing human supremacy.

"Whether it's the dismantling of Rhine Life Sciences or the marginalization of the unification faction's top leaders, one force benefits—they."

"Ever since Director Muirsey first proposed that humanity needs to unite to fight the witches, there have been a few voices insisting that humanity must fight the witches alone and being hostile to magical girls."

"However, at the time, no one paid attention to those people, and Director Muirsay didn't target these politicians who were just shouting slogans."

"But after the War of the Witches of Knowledge and the Star Witch Incident, the situation changed."

"These human supremacists began to grow rapidly."

"Many of Rhine Life's legacies were acquired by this faction, the top leaders of the Unification Faction were marginalized, and the vacant seats were occupied by the Supremacists."

Lucifer then offered a suggestion.

"Could we just take the higher-ups of this faction to..." She didn't say what she wanted to do, but just gestured as if she were tightening a rope.
