Chapter 101

Who else could have orchestrated this? It was Möbius, of course. Everything up to this point was a trap he set for himself, including having his communicator taken away and being unable to receive immediate messages from DEM about their attack.

But why pull this stunt? Why completely lose the trust of others and be forced onto the ship of Schicksal?

If Black Amber knew that Wescott still considers himself very important, she would probably burst out laughing.

"I was unaware of Mana Takamiya's attack. I wonder if something unexpected happened. After all, she is a spirit. If she appears in front of us, there is no reason not to fight her."

Wescott simply shifted the blame, since there was no evidence to support his claim that he gave the order.

The spies from various parties shared similar thoughts; no one believed Wescott was responsible. Besides, as Wescott said, what's wrong with killing elves? Not everyone is Schicksal to choose not to kill.

Black Amber didn't expect to use this incident to prove anything, because once the whole thing was over, the truth wouldn't matter at all; everyone would only accept their own version of the 'truth'.

"Do you know why Schicksal, despite knowing about that spirit, has never tried to subdue or contain it?"

Ignoring Wescott's words, Möbius asked the question again.

"... That does indeed raise some questions."

Wescott had a bad feeling and regretted coming here. Möbius was more unpredictable than he had imagined. He had thought that the two of them had reached an unspoken consensus, but now it seemed that this consensus, and even his previous thought that the other party did not value him, were all traps set for him to bring him to Schicksal.

But... as I said before, what exactly is Möbius's purpose?

"It's very simple."

Black Amber's lips curved slightly, but there was no real smile in them, "Because... this is the most dangerous elf in history, capable of washing away the entire surface in a minute."

Chapter Seventy-Nine: A Meteorite Falls from the Sky.

"Clean the ground within one minute?"

Before Wescott could say anything, the 'researchers' behind him all changed their expressions. Although they weren't real researchers, Black Amber's words didn't require much knowledge; a minute was easy to understand, and cleaning the surface was also easy to understand.

But linking a minute with cleaning the ground makes it hard to understand.

Ellen and Wescott's expressions also changed slightly.

"Connect to the Schicksal Satellite using my communicator signal! I'll send them the evacuation order!"

Wescott understood that the other party wanted to pin him to the role of the culprit, and had already stopped pretending. He could only furrow his brow and try to intimidate the other party with his sharp eyes.

However, Black Amber could not possibly be intimidated by the mere gaze of humans.

Oh, it seems the other person doesn't consider themselves human, but it doesn't matter. For Lahmu, the essence of all intelligent life is the sin that caused her mother pain and sorrow in the old era. Although Black Amber, born from Amber's consciousness, doesn't have the same strong instincts as a normal Lahmu, it doesn't mean she has any good feelings towards humans. She has no good feelings, let alone fear.

"Give him what he wants."

Therefore, Black Amber merely glanced at him playfully before giving instructions to the Valkyrie beside her.

Wescott's expression darkened further, for he realized that Mana's attack was not a result of being tricked, but rather a betrayal caused by some promise made to her by Möbius.

But now that things have come to this, he can only hope that Mana will be frightened by the elf on the other side who can easily destroy the world.

However, after receiving the communicator and sending a message, all that followed was a long silence, with only the ever-burning flames in the universe indicating that the current situation remained unchanged.

What happened...? Did it not send?

Wescott's face grew increasingly grim. Since he had already agreed to let him send the message, Möbius shouldn't have resorted to such underhanded tactics. However, the message he sent wasn't just to Mana Takamiya, but to the entire combat squad.

Although this situation suggests that Mana may not have colluded with Möbius, it doesn't make Wescott happy.

"The strength of the elves has been widely known over the years."

At this moment, Ellen couldn't help but speak up, "Bishop Möbius, although we acknowledge Schicksal's understanding of the elves, your description is really unreliable."

"Take your time and look at it."

Black Amber didn't bother to argue, but instead looked at the Valkyrie beside her again. "How much longer until the Blade of Immortality is complete?"

"About ten minutes."

The Valkyrie's face darkened. "I'm sorry, Bishop, but space warfare is difficult for the Valkyrie..."

This is asking the impossible.

It is common knowledge that the Valkyrie is stronger than the Magician in combat, but there is another well-known fact: this strength is based on normal conditions. In aerial combat, naval combat, and combat under various extreme conditions, the Magician actually has the advantage.

Although this advantage will decrease over time and drop sharply after the Imaginary Domain is overloaded, the advantage of the Imaginary Domain is indeed unique in special circumstances.

For the Valkyrie, simply flying out of the atmosphere is already a challenge to the limits. Even in the Blade of Immortality, very few people can retain their fighting power after flying out of the atmosphere.

"The big one is coming. Have all the Valkyrie take their positions at an altitude of 9km and prepare to receive the falling meteor. As for the elves... leave them to Yulande."

Black Amber spoke calmly and unhurriedly.

Solve? Solve what? That monster that can cleanse the earth in a minute?

Wescott, and everyone else, looked at the Green-haired Girl with strange expressions after hearing this.

"Wait... wait a minute, what's this about the meteorite?"

The spies, no longer concerned with maintaining their 'researcher' persona, asked, sweating profusely, "Meteorites are nothing special; tens of thousands of meteorites fall to Earth every year. But meteorites that need to be intercepted are different."

"I told you, you'll see it soon."

As soon as she finished speaking, the blonde girl in the universe, who had been dodging attacks and rarely took the initiative, seemed to feel annoyed. Her expression clearly showed impatience. Even though it was in a vacuum where sound could hardly travel, her voice was unusually clear. "That's... enough."

Purple light spread outwards from her body, and before the Magician could react to what was happening, they saw several huge meteorites hurtling towards them.

'Such a huge meteorite!?'

At this point, even Mana was a little unsure whether Möbius, or rather Yulande, could really resolve this situation.

Many of these meteorites are over ten meters in diameter, and some are even several tens of meters in diameter. It should be noted that a meteorite only five meters in size would have the power of half an atomic bomb when it burned and exploded upon impact. Although it could not fall to the ground, it would still affect the residents.

Moreover, there are also those that are tens of meters in size, and their explosive power exceeds the equivalent of 3 million tons of TNT, which is equivalent to 208 Hiroshima atomic bombs, enough to level Hiroshima.

These things can't be left lying around!

"Stop the meteorite!"

She led the charge towards the meteorite with a shout, and the other Magician, of course, knew that this thing couldn't just fall to Earth, so without saying a word, they all became human interceptors.

That being said, seeing that this tactic seemed to be very effective, Mukuro Hoshimiya once again pulled more than a dozen meteorites of similar size from space, all around 100 meters in diameter. Then she looked into the distance, wondering whether she should just send one that was over 1,000 meters in diameter.

Upon witnessing this scene, Wescott fully understood what Möbius meant. This was practically an attempt to use his own head as a stepping stone to create an invincible golden body for Schicksal. But Yulande truly possess such power?

He was still thinking, after all, he didn't really care about human lives, but the spies were really sweating profusely.

These meteorites falling to Earth are no joke. No matter where they land, they will cause immense harm to human society, far greater than any Spatial Quake. Doesn't Möbius fear becoming a sinner against humanity for orchestrating this? Her crimes are too numerous to recount!

Anyone who doesn't know that Möbius is involved in DEM is unworthy of being a spy, especially since these are all multi-faceted spies; being adept at dealing with people is just the most basic requirement.

But they dared not question Möbius, after all, he still seemed completely at ease, clearly indicating that things were still under control...

I hope that's true! It must still be under your control, right?! Please! Don't panic!

If the Green-haired Girl had shown even the slightest surprise, the spies would have felt like they were about to have a heart attack. After all, the elf clearly hadn't used her full strength. Even without the power that Möbius claimed to have to cleanse the earth's surface in a minute, simply throwing meteorites would have been enough to easily destroy human civilization.

We were wrong to think that Schicksal was too strong and needed to be suppressed. Now we just ask that you be even stronger than we imagined!

Chapter 80: Yulande defeat her?

Black Amber wasn't in a hurry at all; in fact, she might even have hoped that a few meteorites would fall and crash into the city, giving everyone the greatest sense of panic. Unfortunately, Amber definitely didn't like that kind of scene, so she gave up on that idea.

In fact, Amber would not hinder Black Amber's thoughts and actions, because she believed that Black Amber was not an inhuman being and that even if the meteorites landed, they would not cause any casualties. However, would Black Amber still know herself? If Amber was not in this world, then it would not matter to her if these meteorites landed in the city.

However, the current situation is not too bad. Although the direct impact and sense of crisis are insufficient, they can be made up for with subsequent measures.

As time went on, the meteorite onslaught grew stronger, but Mukuro Hoshimiya's face remained expressionless. She felt increasingly weary of these things that had disrupted her peace, and in order to restore the tranquility she had been living day after day, she decided to use her power as a final warning.

The meteorites that were originally being thrown at the Magician in waves were 'closed' together by Rokuya's power, forming a meteorite that was over a thousand meters long and capable of easily destroying a small country upon impact.

What's even more alarming is that three of these meteorites have appeared in a short period of time.

Mana's face turned pale. If she could still manage before, this was something she really couldn't handle at all.

She could only do her best to break these meteorites into pieces.

Not only did Mana's face turn pale, but everyone who saw this scene was terrified. All the countries and forces with satellite vision and the ability to detect the situation were holding DEM accountable. They didn't know the specifics, only that the people fighting were DEM's Magician.

However, they couldn't contact Wescott, and remembering that he was currently having a technical Exchange Meeting with Schicksal, they simply sent a communication directly to Schicksal.

Seeing the increasing number of avatars on the screen and everyone questioning him, Wescott was speechless with embarrassment. He could only say, "This attack was not my arrangement, and we are currently unable to contact that Magician Squadron."

"We're not here to hear you shirk responsibility! We want to know how to resolve this situation."

The US Leader, playing the accordion, said, "Not just DEM, but as the leader who enjoys the most convenience and privileges in the realm of elves, shouldn't Schicksal offer a solution?"

Everyone's not stupid. At first, they thought Wescott had lost his mind or lacked information to pull off such a big operation, but now it seems there's obviously more to this than meets the eye, at least related to Schicksal.

However, no one cared about the inside story; they only cared about the immediate crisis.

"The Blade of Immortality is already on standby high in the sky and will destroy the meteorite before it falls, so as not to cause any damage to the Earth."

Black Amber remained calm and unhurried, showing no sign that the current situation was of great importance to her, nor was she frightened by the meteorite falling from the sky.

"Passively responding to attacks is not a long-term solution, and that elf may have more tricks up its sleeve."

The First of Shenzhou also showed a look of worry and tentatively asked, "Bishop Möbius, how much do you know about that elf?"

"I know almost everything about him."

As Black Amber spoke, she transmitted Mukuro Hoshimiya's abilities to everyone in document form.

Great, now my anxiety has finally died down.

"You mean that spirit that can stop the Earth's rotation at any time is right above us right now!?"

The US Leader blushed with excitement. "Why would such a spirit appear?! Can you take responsibility for this data?!"

It's no wonder he questioned things frantically after his defenses crumbled; anyone would instinctively want to deny it because it was too terrifying.

Why would a spirit appear that can so easily destroy the world in the blink of an eye? Weren't the spirits only causing city-level crises before?

Wescott was somewhat indifferent, not only because he could accept the destruction of the world, but more importantly... he realized that it didn't matter what he did anymore. Möbius had clearly got him figured out, and was going to crush him completely.

Resentment and anger? Of course there are some, but these emotions are meaningless.

"How should we deal with this elf, Lady Möbius?"

The Shenzhou asks the question.

Upon hearing this, all the discussions ceased abruptly. Previously, they had ridiculed Schicksal for not killing elves, deeming it inconceivable. Since they possessed the power to easily kill or even capture elves, the elves were simply their guinea pigs. Why bother pretending to be the good guy and 'peacefully coexisting with the elves'?

But things are different now. Faced with this elf who can easily destroy humanity, they seem to have returned to the time when they knew nothing about elves and let them destroy cities and countries at will, a time when they could only rely on Schicksal.

After all... humanity's strongest power is currently in the hands of Schicksal, and it seems that only Schicksal has the potential to fight against that Cosmic Spirit.

Facing the expectant gazes of everyone, who seemed to be eagerly awaiting a reassuring answer from him, Black Amber finally revealed a triumphant smile, "Don't worry, Yulande will take care of it."

...ah?

This answer stunned everyone, even Wescott, who was standing to the side, glanced subtly at Black Amber.

Although he had heard before that Yulande was to deal with that Cosmic Spirit, Wescott didn't take the Cosmic Spirit's terrifying nature seriously at the time, or rather, he was still skeptical.

Now, looking at those enormous meteorites, each thousands of meters in diameter, the visual effect and sense of oppression are so obvious they seem to leap off the screen. Under these circumstances, she still insists on letting Yulande handle it?

Wescott did believe that Schicksal would provide a solution, but he certainly hadn't expected it to be this way.

"You mean... Yulande can defeat this monster that can throw meteorites thousands of meters high at will, has no restrictions on Space Movement, kills anyone it touches, and can even stop the Earth's rotation?"

The America stared in disbelief.

No... girl?

Not only the America was shocked, but everyone who heard this was filled with astonishment and doubt.

We preached about the dangers of Schicksal, saying that Schicksal had ambitions to rule the world, but how come you've gone even further than we imagined? Forget ruling the world, just hearing about it makes me think you could even destroy it. Is Yulande even human?

Fortunately, everyone remained rational. Although they were briefly surprised, they quickly regained their composure.

Although Yulande was asked to intervene, there's a difference between 'stopping' and 'negotiating'. Presumably, the intention behind the intervention was to use Yulande's strength, combined with a certain degree of feigned weakness, to demonstrate 'we're not so easy to bully' in order to negotiate...

Is that right?

They were truly at a loss. Faced with such a world-destroying Catastrophe, they naturally hoped that Schicksal possessed the power to counter it, but seeing that the crisis was likely under control, they also didn't want Schicksal to be that powerful... After all, if it were truly that powerful...

Some people dared not think further.
