"Please wait here for a moment. Clara is not a bad person. I'll go and explain to her."
To avoid misunderstandings and to prevent conflict between friendly forces, Seele offered a brief explanation and then headed over.
"Whatever you do, don't lay a hand on Clara or any of the other robots, or Schwarz will be furious!"
Upon hearing this, Artoria looked in a certain direction, from which came the sound of something rapidly approaching.
"Is the Schwarz you're talking about that giant robot? Or is it a name for the entire machine army behind him?"
Upon hearing this, Seele noticed Schwarz's figure rushing towards her.
Not only him, but almost half of the mechanical legion in the lower district followed his figure and charged over, looking like they were about to go berserk.
"Damn it! Clara is involved. He's been enraged. We have to be careful. This robot was the strongest in our lower zone before. He also has control over other mechs. He's a mechanical legion all by himself. He's very difficult to deal with!"
Seele gripped her scythe tightly and immediately issued a warning.
In the past, even she might not have been a match for Schwarz.
But things are different now. After consuming the fruit of the Tree of Life, her strength has increased several times over, and it continues to improve every moment.
She is now capable of defeating Schwarz in a one-on-one fight.
However, if it's an enemy consisting of an entire mechanical legion, then it's still a bit troublesome.
Hearing Seele's warning, Artoria's eyes sharpened.
Even if the other party is insignificant, we cannot allow them to offend our master. Regardless of whether the attack was a misunderstanding, this is a matter of principle that cannot be violated.
Just as she gripped the sword hilt, ready to strike, she suddenly saw Toppa step forward beside Su Mo and pull out a strange core.
In that instant, as if a pause button had been pressed, all the mechs stopped and froze in place.
Even Schwarz, the former strongest in the lower zone who could control all the robots, knelt down and submitted to Su Mo after a brief moment of stiffness.
Artoria blinked in confusion upon seeing this.
"already solved?"
"??? Making Swallows submit in front of Clara... Why would I have such a dream?"
Seele patted her head, wondering if she was dreaming, or if she had actually been unconscious all along.
"It must be Miss Topa's power. Let's go take a look."
Artoria and Seele immediately went over.
As they approached, they saw the white-haired, red-eyed, barefoot loli shake the large robot in front of her. After realizing that the reliable Schwarzkopf, who was like a father to her, did not move, she immediately looked at Su Mo with a tense and pleading gaze, on the verge of tears.
"Big brother! Mr. Schwarz isn't a bad person. Please let him go. I'll do anything!"
Looking at the lines that were exactly the same as her own, Seele patted her head and sighed.
At this moment, seeing his beloved daughter pleading for mercy by tugging at the man's sleeve, Schwarzkopf's red eyes shone to their limit, almost bursting out of their sockets, but he could only tremble slightly and let out a weak "hoarse" sound, watching helplessly as the man in front of him took control of his and his family's lives.
The father is currently guilty.
Seeing this, Topa's lips twitched slightly, and she felt as if she had become some kind of bad person who forced someone to sell their daughter.
164 Controlling the Star Core, Cocolia
"This is the source code that grants unified control over all of Belloberg's mechanical units!"
Shaking the small machine in his hand, Toppa explained to Su Mo, Artoria, and the others.
“For the past seven hundred years, all the mechs manufactured by Belloborg have used the underlying systems left by the company. Therefore, with this backend vulnerability, I am able to control all Belloborg mechs, whether on the ground or underground.”
"I originally thought that the civilization on this planet had perished. I only came here to collect the stored memories inside the machine and analyze the intelligence. I never expected that it would come in handy here."
At this point, Topa's tone became quite cheerful.
As the company's ambassador, she shared Artoria's concern that outsiders might harm Su Mo.
This wasn't out of concern for Su Mo's safety, but rather out of concern that he would have to deal with the enemy using the most efficient means possible.
Fortunately, she had brought many tools with her, which successfully avoided a conflict and prevented the destruction of the robot in front of her, or even all the mechs in Belloborg.
"Thank you very much."
Su Mo nodded slightly.
"You're welcome. It's my duty to protect your safety."
Toppa immediately lowered his head and said.
"If even these minor troubles require Lord Su Mo's personal intervention, then it would only make me look too incompetent."
Hearing the two exchange pleasantries, Clara was once again certain that Su Mo was the one in charge, and immediately looked up at him.
"Big brother, Mr. Schwarzlo doesn't mean any harm..."
This wasn't a simple plea for mercy. Based on her understanding of Schwarzro, her previous actions were merely an attempt to bring Clara back, and she had no intention of starting a war.
As an automaton, Swallow's combat logic isn't so easily triggered when facing strangers.
Hearing this, Topa helplessly shrugged.
"Of course I know, otherwise I wouldn't have allowed it to live."
After saying that, she looked at Su Mo, clearly deciding to leave the decision to him. Clara also looked over pleadingly.
Su Mo only thought about it for a moment before speaking.
"Swaro has secondary authority over the mechs, so let him work with the other mechs to distribute food and maintain order!"
Since we can control these robots, there's no reason not to use them.
"Thank you, big brother!"
Clara realized that Su Mo did not intend to destroy Schwarz, and immediately bowed her head to thank him.
"I will also help, and work with my older brother to help everyone!"
Clara did not have a negative impression of Su Mo and his group because of the wanderer's instigation.
On the contrary, with her keen observation skills, she could tell almost immediately that Su Mo's side was the good guy. Even when Topa launched a counterattack against Swallow, she understood that it was a misunderstanding and that the two sides were not enemies.
Therefore, she quickly accepted Su Mo's request. In fact, given her personality, she would have offered to help even if Su Mo hadn't asked.
Upon hearing this, Toppa immediately nodded and input the command into Swallow.
Seele, however, sensed something.
"Let Swallow and the others be in charge of distributing the food, what about you?"
She asked, slightly nervously.
"It's about time, I plan to leave."
Looking up at the sky, Su Mo said this.
"leave?"
Seele immediately looked disappointed.
Su Mo and the others forcefully entered her life like dazzling sunlight, while Artoria's path to power attracted her like a moth drawn to a flame.
Artoria didn't yet have a deep understanding of Su Mo's identity, and she didn't expect them to leave so soon.
"Where are you going?"
Biting her lip, Seele mustered her courage and asked.
"I still owe you five million Winter City Shields, and I also owe you a life-saving favor. Where am I supposed to find you?"
Like a drowning person grasping at a last straw, Seele was unwilling to give up.
"Right now, I'll go to the upper zone. Saber is a bit concerned about the leader of this planet, while I'm more concerned about the star core that caused all the disasters."
Su Mo said frankly.
He had just witnessed the planet's largest mineral, the Earth Essence, and the rift phenomenon caused by the star core, and had gained a certain understanding of the planet's special products.
Currently, Star and March 7th are once again wanted criminals, being pursued by the Silvermane Iron Guards and about to reach the Lower District.
After this minor skirmish by the Trail Blazers, Cocolia will surely seek inner peace from the Star Core.
Next, there's no need to waste any more time; let's go straight for the enemy's stronghold.
"The Upper Zone? To meet our Great Guardian? The Star Core that caused all the disaster?"
Hearing the familiar or unfamiliar words from Su Mo's mouth, even though she hadn't read many books, Xi'er instinctively realized that everything Su Mo mentioned was closely related to the fate of this world.
Recalling the almost unfathomable strength that these people had previously displayed, Seele vaguely realized that the history of the entire world might be changed because of these people in front of her.
In this pivotal moment that changed history, what should she have done?
After a moment's thought, Seele, guided by her intuition, mustered her courage and spoke.
“Mr. Su Mo, no! Lord Su Mo, could you please take me with you… Although I don’t know if I can be of any help, or how I can repay your kindness, if you want to change the fate of the world, please let me be your witness.”
As someone from the lower district, she didn't want to be absent at this crucial moment, just like she had been abandoned by the upper district decades ago.
Upon hearing Seele's request, Su Mo and Artoria exchanged a glance.
"It seems my Saber is still quite popular in this other world... If you behave well, I might be able to take you along for the time being."
"Thank you, Master Su Mo!"
Seele immediately showed a look of surprise.
She had a premonition that this might be the most correct decision she had ever made in her life, without exception.
Seeing Seele's excited expression, Clara also showed a hint of interest.
But after thinking about it, she didn't make a request; instead, she spoke softly.
"Then I'll stay here with Mr. Schwarz and maintain order. Good luck, big brother and sister Seele!"
Under Schwarz's silent gaze, Su Mo and his group of four disappeared into the square.
A few minutes later, in the mine tunnels near the square, two girls dressed as outsiders and a girl dressed as a Silver Mane Iron Guard fell down one after another, rolling awkwardly on the ground.
