A chat group where you switch bodies with Alicia at the start?

They are indeed bad, but not stupid.

The First Herrscher, who emerged long before the Firemoth was established, had already taught all nations a lesson.

Trying to confront such supernatural entities head-on in a normal way will only result in huge losses.

The joint fleet that North America has brought in is just for flexing its muscles and reaping the rewards; who's going to fight a real battle with you?

If several important ships are lost during the battle, or even more daringly... if they are all wiped out, then the domestic voters will probably just grab their trolls and block the presidential palace.

The political elite only wanted to flex their muscles and reap the rewards, while the military didn't want to fight a tough battle. With their opinions aligned, the final result was to first use the same methods as dealing with the First Herrscher to send the Fourth Herrscher away, and then their combined fleet could just go and wander around for a bit.

At worst, the waves will be a bit bigger, so why not?

A moth drawn to a flame? Ha.

This unexpected turn of events made it impossible for Dr. MEI, who was far away in the Alps, to remain calm.

Tonga is not far from New Zealand, so even though she was on the south coast of New Zealand, she could feel the vibrations between tectonic plates caused by the super-powerful nuclear explosion that triggered an underwater volcanic eruption.

The billowing volcanic ash made the already gloomy weather even more overcast, with not a single ray of light visible.

"Alicia!"

Given MEI's personality, he should always remain absolutely calm and rational, no matter when or where.

But the potential consequences of this turn of events made it impossible for her to remain calm at this moment.

Given that magnitude, that reaction time, and the fact that she was still weak after fighting Wendy and had very little Honkai energy left, even if it was [Alicia], she could hardly imagine how 'Alicia' would cope.

"Calm down."

“This doesn’t look like you at all, Mei.”

The soft shout that rang in his ears brought Dr. Mei back to his senses. He turned his gaze and saw a beautiful green-haired woman in a white coat with a broad chest.

She frowned, staring at the former with a hint of displeasure. The latter paused, regaining some composure, and replied:

“You’re back, Dr. Möbius.”

How's the work going?

Her voice was incredibly calm, but the tremor between the lines revealed that this intellectual young woman's inner world was not as calm as it appeared.

MEI is still young, and even if she tries to maintain her absolute rationality, her emotional side is not so easy to suppress.

She could only feign composure to maintain the situation, after all, she was now in charge.

This job was originally supposed to be handled by Dr. Möbius, who was more suitable than her in terms of both experience and qualifications, but in the end it still fell into her hands—Dr. Möbius also had high hopes for her.

"Thanks to that annoying woman, the mild weather has made my work here much easier... Honestly, I'm a researcher, but I still have to come all the way to the front lines. My experiment is at a very critical stage."

Mebius complained, but there wasn't much blame in her eyes. She looked in the direction of Tonga Island and said, "I know everything from Vervier."

"You don't need to worry about her too much. That annoying woman is very lucky."

"...It's impossible for anything to happen."

Snake, who seemed nonchalant, slowly clenched his fist under his sleeve, the stinging pain penetrating his flesh causing drops of blood to fall to the ground.

Suddenly, she raised an eyebrow, as if she had a premonition of something.

Turning his head, MEI clearly had the same expression.

—Compared to Dr. Mebius, who is a mortal but has gained a rudimentary ability to sense Honkai energy through some kind of experiment, her senses as a Herrscher are much stronger at this moment.

"So strong."

Biting her lip, and staring at the direction from which the Honkai energy reaction originated, MEI unconsciously uttered this sound.

They weren't the only ones in New Zealand to feel this incredibly powerful destructive energy.

There are also branches of the Fire Moth located around the world.

at this moment.

All the Honkai energy detection instruments simultaneously emitted a shrill whistle. Many of the older models of Honkai energy detection instruments even broke down after emitting a burning smell and a puff of black smoke amidst a series of beeping sounds.

Despite his utter shock, Mebius burst out laughing:

"It seems we don't need to worry about that annoying woman anymore."

"Ah."

"In that case, we also need to find out those guys hiding in the shadows."

MEI, in high spirits, smiled, but her expression was so cold.

...

"General...General!"

When Gesar was about to return to his cabin, he heard his subordinates stammering and looking extremely terrified.

He had a rather bad temper, and he shouted angrily:

"What's wrong?!"

Fake! Everyone was shouting and yelling, and their good mood from eliminating the Herrscher was completely ruined.

He also planned to have a couple of drinks and have fun with the girls on the boat.

Gesar, who had been looking impatient, turned his head and suddenly froze.

In the distance, a beautiful figure could be seen in the sky.

Her hair, originally black on the outside and green on the inside, was now dyed a pure dark green, and her holy robes had transformed into a snow-white crown, fluttering in the raging air currents.

The enormous chest was adorned with gleaming emeralds bound by gilded metal. Her fair, full thighs cascaded down, with a bulky gold leg ring on her right thigh and two slightly smaller ankle bracelets around her slender jade ankles. On her other fair thigh, though devoid of gold ornaments, there were shimmering, mysterious sky-blue patterns.

The girl, draped in a black shawl, opened her eyes, revealing divine, emerald-green eyes.

The emerald green wings had vanished without a trace, just like a bird that had lost its wings.

In its place was the divine rune on the back that sent shivers down one's spine.

"Shedding its wings, it welcomes a new life."

A black shawl cascaded down her arms, which were as white as lotus roots, and crossed over her slender hands. She raised her hand to touch the violent current of energy and felt the surging power within her body—power that could overturn the entire world.

"This is what a Herrscher is?!"

Gazing at the divine girl who had been reborn and stood suspended in the air, Gesar, who had never seen the Fourth Herrscher before, instantly understood that this was the enemy they had wanted to eliminate but had failed to eliminate. He felt a chill run down his spine—even the most powerful nuclear weapons, the pinnacle of human wisdom, had failed to harm this monster in the slightest. This fact brought him genuine fear.

Writhing his somewhat bloated body, Gesar didn't even dare to defile that pure form with his filthy gaze. He roared out of control, issuing orders to his soldiers and even the ships he had brought:

"Kill her! Attack! All of you, attack!"

Fear and madness had even made him ignore the fact that the girl in the sky had withstood the bombardment of nuclear weapons.

Roaring, the cowardly man ran toward the cabin, as if he would be safer there.

A voice echoed in Gesar's heart—he must not be caught by that monster, absolutely!

It was a feeling of fear, as if we had encountered a natural enemy.

"boom!"

The nuclear submarines responsible for delivering nuclear weapons have already gone into hiding, leaving only the destroyer fleet they are on board to rely on.

An aircraft carrier serving as a sea-based airfield is meaningless in the face of the Herrscher of Wind, who can unleash fierce winds.

Only the dazzling firepower of the destroyers could bring this fleet from the North American forces a humble sense of security.

but--

All of this is meaningless.

It wasn't even enough to arouse the girl's hostility; she merely glanced at it indifferently—just like humans toying with insects, the fleet of several destroyers was instantly blown away by the terrifying air currents.

With just a flick of his little finger, Gesar's flagship was dragged to his side by the airflow. Then, with a casual wave of his hand, as if cutting butter, the warship was dismembered and blood was spilled.

All of this happened in just a moment.

General Gesar was only able to survive thanks to Wendy's deliberate preservation efforts.

However, at this moment, this usually arrogant and domineering general became extremely fearful after witnessing how his fleet was dismembered and destroyed by the monster in just a few seconds.

Then, before he could say anything to beg for mercy or curse, the girl raised an index finger to her lips and hissed.

"Don't beg for mercy, that would be too ugly and would make me want to kill you right away."

"Let's play a game with Wendy. If you win, maybe Wendy will let you go."

When General Gesar was in despair, Wendy's words rekindled a glimmer of hope in his heart.

But that hope quickly vanished; how could one possibly win a game against such a monster?

"Don't be so discouraged. Accept it—you still have at least a 50% chance. If you give up, there will be no hope at all. Hope is a wonderful thing."

"..."

"Sigh, it's rare for someone to be so kind, but it seems I'm going to be disappointed."

Looking at the silent Gesar, the girl showed a somewhat frustrated and regretful expression, as if she had lost an interesting toy.

"I'll play! I'll play!"

Sensing a deadly threat, the general, who had been hesitant, nodded urgently.
