Huang Hao looked at the visitor before him in surprise. "Oh, Elysia, what a rare visitor. How did you find me?"

Elysia smiled in response. "It wasn't me, it was her."

A drone slowly flew out from behind Elysia.

"Hello, master of this mysterious flame."

A female voice came from the drone.

"My name is Mobius."

Huang Hao's smiling face instantly darkened.

Damn it, why is it that tech freak, Huang Hao thought to himself.

Since things had come to this, Huang Hao could only brace himself and ask, "So, may I ask what business you have with me?"

Mobius replied with a fake smile, "I just want to study this flame. Don't be nervous."

It's precisely because it's you who wants to study it that I'm worried, Huang Hao thought, but he still replied, "It's nothing but a small trick, no need to watch."

Mobius: "How can that be? We at Moth to the Flame are very hospitable."

"Then, esteemed guest, how do you plan to keep me here? With you all? You are no match for me now."

Hearing Huang Hao's dangerous tone, Mobius quickly replied, "No, no, no, I am inviting you to join Moth to the Flame."

Huang Hao, who was about to fight, was stunned by Mobius's words. "Wait, you're just going to pull a complete stranger into Moth to the Flame like this?"

Mobius: "Someone who was already making plans from the start and did not stop us from fighting the Honkai is enough to prove your sincerity."

Huang Hao returned to his signature smile. "Thank you for your kindness, but I won't join for now."

Mobius: "For now?"

Huang Hao: "Yes, after all, I still have many things to do. I remember I have a friend. When he joins, he will definitely help me get introduced. Just pull me in then. I'm leaving now."

"Oh, right, Elysia, aren't you going to comfort Kevin? You're not comforting him, so I will."

Elysia had been watching Mobius and Huang Hao's conversation from the side, unable to interject. Seeing Huang Hao about to leave, she tried to stop him, but Mobius prevented her.

"Elysia, let him go. You alone are no match for him. Sooner or later, I will reveal everything," Mobius said confidently.

Elysia could only watch as Huang Hao enveloped himself in black fire and departed, then returned to Kevin's side.

"Kevin, don't be sad. This isn't entirely your fault."

Kevin looked dejected. "It's all my fault. If I hadn't hesitated, they wouldn't have..."

Elysia looked at Kevin, unsure how to comfort him. She pointed to the side. "Don't worry, Kevin, we will bury... Wait. What's going on!"

The black fire reignited on every corpse, and then everyone stood up.

"Why am I okay?"

"It's an angel! That blue-haired girl is an angel! She saved us over there!"

All the civilians cheered.

Kevin and Elysia stared in shock. "What, what is happening?" they said in unison.

"Interesting." Mobius's drone flew out again to observe. "He directly destroyed the physical bodies, brought the consciousness to an unknown place, and then created new bodies, bringing the consciousness back. This process requires immense energy. He probably didn't have enough energy just now, so he didn't dare to attack us directly."

"If we had captured him then, he truly wouldn't have been able to resist. What a shame. But how did he manage all of this?"

Huang Hao returned to the base, covered in cold sweat. "Damn it, I just ran into Mobius. Luckily, I bluffed them. Otherwise, in my state just now, I probably would have been caught."

Just then, Angela appeared. "Father, I've finished the tasks you assigned."

Huang Hao patted Angela's head. "Thanks, An'er. By the way, can you contact Mobius?"

Angela replied, "Yes, Father, are you going to..."

"Transmit all the knowledge I have about the Divine Keys and Fusion Warriors to him. Oh, and also about Mei."

"What are you doing this for?"

"To let them create Fusion Warriors faster. An'er, help me train too. We only have time until the third Herrscher arrives."

"I want to see how many consciousnesses can be preserved before the previous civilization perishes."
