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

"Quickly maintain order, don't panic!"

"There's no use panicking anyway," Muirsey didn't say aloud.

However, after receiving instructions in the midst of the chaos, the flight attendants, seeing the calm Muelsey, Emilia, and Alicia, helped each other and did their best to comfort and care for the passengers as instructed.

Muirse looked with concern at Alicia, who was using magic to protect the commercial aircraft.

Alicia nodded; there was no problem.

"Our hero, can you hold on? We're not doing well right now," the captain announced over the intercom.

The passengers could hear the captain's voice, a mixture of relief at surviving the ordeal and fear of the situation.

"We seem to be being watched. There are many fighter jets flying towards us now," the captain said over the intercom, trying his best to calm himself down. But seeing the dense array of signals on the radar, he couldn't help but feel utterly desperate.

Alicia, Emilia, and Muirse exchanged glances and quickly assigned their respective duties.

"Everyone, wear your seatbelts! Stay in your seats!" Emilia's voice remained gentle and calm, but now it carried an undeniable authority.

In such a crisis, faced with a calm and composed leader, no one raised any objections, for the sake of their own safety and lives.

"Mimi, Emilia, I'm leaving this to you two," Alicia said, looking at Muels and Emilia. "I'm going out to deal with the dangers."

“Okay, no problem, leave it to us,” Emilia nodded.

A flaxen staff appeared out of thin air in Muirsey's hand. She raised her staff, and the golden light of the setting sun replaced the pink light, protecting the civilian aircraft.

After everyone in the cabin was seated and had fastened their seatbelts, Alicia arrived at the emergency exit. Everyone in the cabin was watching Alicia and Emilia beside her.

After Alicia easily opened the emergency exit, the airflow inside the cabin rushed out violently, causing Emilia's dress to flutter wildly, but she was not affected.

"I'll be back soon?"

Alicia laughed and then flew out through the safety door.

After Emilia closed the emergency exit, the cabin quieted down.

At this moment, on the top of the civilian aircraft, Alicia held a bow and arrow made of magic, looking at the dozens of fighter jets flying in, feeling somewhat puzzled and confused.

However, this did not affect her movements.

With a casual pull, a pink arrow materialized on the bow and arrow. Aiming at the incoming missile, Alicia released her grip, and the pink arrow, made of magic, or rather, purified Honkai energy, struck the missile directly, creating dozens of explosions around the civilian aircraft.

"Those fighter jets aren't human, Alicia, shouldn't you go easy on them?" the pink fairy reminded her at that moment.

"Okay, I understand." Alicia watched the approaching unknown fighter jets, then continued to draw her bow and nock an arrow. A pink arrow flew towards the fighter jets, and after an explosion, one of the planes exploded and disintegrated in mid-air.

Moscow, inside the Kremlin

The adjutant's warning, "Your unit is under attack," startled Bronya. Then, on the computer screen, the game character she was controlling was quickly slaughtered by monsters.

Bronya shifted her view to the downed unit and then saw Alicia standing on a civilian airliner, constantly shooting down her plane.

"Let's continue developing first and not provoke Alicia for now," Bronya quickly made a decision, directly trapping all the fighters that were attacking Alicia and returning them to the airport.

Bronya wasn't ready to go all out against Alicia. She planned to collect more Honkai energy and then drown Alicia with a torrent of steel.

On the vast plains of East Europe, Bronya's army is launching attacks everywhere, taking over cities as quickly as possible. The accompanying mobile bases will then collect local Honkai energy and various materials, and establish bases along the way.

Chapter 364 The First Great Collapse (4) We must stop the witch!

"They're gone! We're safe!"

On the commercial airliner, the captain excitedly shared the good news with the passengers, who then cheered with excitement, thankful to be alive.

However, at this moment, the emergency exit was opened again, and Alicia returned to the cabin.

"How is everyone?" Alicia asked the passengers in the cabin with a smile.

"Three amazing ladies! Thank you so much!"

"You saved our lives!"

The passengers and flight attendants were all very excited and thanked Alicia and her team.

Seeing everyone's enthusiasm, Alicia's mood improved considerably.

However, she noticed that although Muirsey and Emilia were smiling, they seemed to have something on their minds.

After the captain announced that they would quickly turn around and land at the nearest airport they could contact, Alicia and the others returned to their seats.

To avoid causing concern among the passengers, Alicia and the others discussed it for a while and communicated directly on their mobile phones.

"Are those fighter jets the witch's army?"

"Yes? That's the army created by the Witch of Reason." The pink fairy confirmed Alicia and the others' guess.

"But why would a witch attack a civilian airliner?" Muirsey asked, somewhat puzzled.

This puzzled all three magical girls, including Alicia.

"Because the humans who are killed will be transformed into evil magic by the Witch of Reason..." The pink fairy's voice drifted into their ears.

Alicia and the others were stunned.

“This…” Alicia suddenly had a very bad feeling.

She immediately stood up and ran to the nearest flight attendant.

"I want to ask the captain some questions," Alicia said, trying her best to remain calm, but the flight attendant could see the worry and sadness in Alicia's expression.

"Okay," the flight attendant said without saying much, and immediately led Alicia and the others to the front of the cabin to communicate with the captain.

"Ms. Alicia, what would you like to ask?" The captain readily agreed when he learned that Alicia wanted to ask some questions.

"Do you know anything about the situation in Moscow?" Alicia asked nervously.

"I'm sorry, Ms. Alicia, we tried to contact Moscow Airport from the very beginning, but there was no response. Perhaps the communications were blocked by those rebels," the captain calmly replied.

But Alicia didn't think so in her heart.

However, she hesitated whether to tell these people about the witch.

"Captain, do you have a way to get information about Moscow via satellite?" Muirsay asked the captain, taking the communicator.

“Satellite…I can try.” The captain thought for a moment and nodded. He also wanted to know what was happening in Moscow, so he contacted his comrade in the satellite department directly through the aircraft’s radio.

The captain was a retired pilot who had made many friends, one of whom happened to work in the satellite department.

To the captain's surprise, he expected an ambiguous answer, given that the satellite department needed to maintain secrecy. However, his friend unexpectedly told him directly about the satellite reconnaissance situation in Moscow.

Satellite reconnaissance detected a massive military base and troops that had suddenly appeared in Moscow, while the city's population had vanished, including high-ranking Russian officials.

"Everyone has disappeared?" The captain was somewhat surprised. What kind of answer was that? More than ten million people in Moscow, how could they all have disappeared?

And what about the sudden appearance of a massive military base and army? Are they rebels?

The captain hadn't seen the situation in Moscow and couldn't understand it from just a few words.

But Alicia happened to overhear this, and her premonition came true immediately, turning Alicia's face deathly pale.

"That witch is in Moscow..." Alicia disregarded everything else and looked directly at Muels and Emilia, "We must stop her!"

The captain and the flight attendants around him were still full of questions. A witch? What does that have to do with witches?

However, soon, some people had already guessed the truth, but they couldn't believe it. How could it be? How could more than ten million people in Moscow have disappeared so quickly because of the witch?

"Captain, does the plane have parachutes? We must get to Moscow immediately!" Alicia asked anxiously.

"Ms. Alicia, I'm sorry, commercial airliners don't have parachutes," the captain replied helplessly. However, he was also extremely uneasy at that moment, as his family lived in Moscow.

What exactly happened in Moscow?

"Mimi," Alicia looked at Muirsay.

Upon seeing Alicia, Muirse immediately knew what she was thinking.

“Theoretically, it’s possible, but we haven’t tried it. And if we consume too much magic power during the descent, we might not be able to defeat the witch,” Muirse replied seriously.

"But no matter what, we must get to Moscow!" Alicia said firmly. She knew that if they didn't hurry to stop the witch, more humans would die at the hands of her army!

"Ladies, if you're going to Moscow, I can take you there after the other passengers have disembarked," the captain suddenly said.

Ignoring the co-pilot's astonished expression, the captain instructed the co-pilot to continue piloting the plane and prepare to land at a nearby airport where they could make contact. He then continued his conversation with Alicia and the others.

"My family is in Moscow, and I want to know how they are doing!"

"Captain..."

Alicia hesitated, but didn't want to object.

"Alright, there's no need to hesitate. Moscow is the capital of our great motherland. I was once a retired soldier, and it's my responsibility to defend our country. How can we rely on you alone? Even if I die in battle, I will die on the soil of my motherland!"

Faced with the captain's firm and resolute answer, Alicia and the others quickly agreed.

"Yes, we understand!"

Not long after, the commercial airliner landed safely at an airport in a nearby city, where most people were still unaware of what had happened.

The passengers and flight attendants quickly disembarked. Local airport staff were initially puzzled as to why the plane had suddenly landed, but later learned that it would soon take off again and fly directly to Moscow, where it had lost contact.

Airport staff were alarmed. By this time, Moscow had been out of contact for nearly 15 hours, and there was no sign of any planes that were supposed to fly from Moscow to the airport that day. Naturally, the airport staff were also wondering and speculating about the situation in Moscow, which had lost contact.

But why would this commercial airliner disregard the danger and head towards Moscow?

In addition, news reports have been appearing online that an army previously unseen, suspected to be a rebel force, is attacking cities around Moscow.

This news is simply too unbelievable. This is the heart of Russia, how could there be a large-scale rebel army here?

The initial disappearance of Russian high-ranking officials quickly aroused suspicion among major world powers, whose embassies in Moscow also lost contact. However, satellite reconnaissance footage revealed an unbelievable sight: a massive military base was rising from the ground, and a huge army was appearing out of nowhere.

When Alicia and her companions flew directly to Moscow with the captain, although various countries had increased their security measures, they were still studying and analyzing what was going on with the suddenly appearing army, and what their intentions were. Why did the locals suddenly disappear after this army arrived in certain cities and erected strange humanoid statues?

Meanwhile, Bronya was admiringly looking at a newly built, colossal building across from the Kremlin—the Palace of Truth.

Yes, she spent an hour and several HW units of Honkai energy to create a super building that is nearly 600 meters tall, with the statue of Bronya wearing a Herrscher dress at the top of it alone reaching 100 meters in height.

"In just over ten hours, the Honkai energy has already reached 3000 HW units," Bronya said with a self-deprecating smile as she looked at the ever-increasing Honkai energy units.

The armies she sends out will directly build statues of Bronya herself in cities around the world. Although they look like statues, they are actually devices that can directly cause the collapse of cities and are used to collect Honkai energy.

3000 HW units of Honkai energy means that 3 million humans have already dissolved into Honkai energy.

"It's just a number," Bronya said indifferently, turning around as her silver dress billowed in the wind and walking toward the Palace of Truth.

Chapter 365 The First Great Collapse (5) The Advantage Lies With Me

On a civilian airliner en route to Moscow.

"Captain, I have applied stealth to the aircraft. Please fly towards Moscow to the best of your ability. If we are unable to land, we will take you off the plane and ensure your safety."

At this moment, Alicia and the others were talking to the captain outside the cockpit.

"Thank you, girls," the captain said solemnly to Alicia and the others. "If the situation becomes dangerous after we arrive in Moscow, please abandon me and leave immediately. Tell the whole world what happened in Moscow!"

"No! We won't abandon you! I will definitely get you out of here. The captain has already risked his life to get us to Moscow; we can't let you sacrifice yourself here."

Alicia, however, did not want to abandon the brave captain who dared to risk his life, even facing certain death, to bring them into Moscow.

Without knowing just how dangerous the witch of Moscow was or how large her army was, Alicia and her companions were not confident of escaping unscathed.

Even so, Alicia couldn't bring herself to abandon the captain and run away.

"This is the capital of my motherland!" The captain looked at Alicia with a serious and resolute expression.

"Although my motherland has many, many problems, this is still my motherland! My death is not important, as long as I can tell my comrades about the enemy's information and intelligence, as well as the countries around the world that are willing to help my motherland, then my death will be worthwhile!"

Alicia could sense that the captain had already resolved to die; he had given up all hope for the safety of his family in Moscow.

“…I understand.” Alicia gazed at the captain as if trying to memorize him. She exchanged a glance with Muirsey Emilia, and then smiled together.

"Let me introduce myself again. My name is Alicia, and I'm a beautiful girl who lives up to my appearance, aren't I?"

"Hello, sir, my name is Muirsay."

"Captain, my name is Emilia."

The captain also smiled.

"My three lovely girls, just call me Joseph. My daughter is the same age as you."

At this moment, it didn't seem like the group was going to some dangerous place, but rather, as usual, they were going to Moscow for a trip. Joseph smiled and introduced the tourist attractions in Moscow to Alicia and the others, pointing out where there were fun and delicious places to eat.

About two hours later, Moscow appeared on the horizon.

However, to their surprise, a very tall palace stood in the heart of Moscow. At the top of this palace was a huge statue of a woman dressed in a magnificent gown.

Surrounding this palace were a dense array of strange buildings, as well as an army unlike any seen before.
