Collapse Iron Live Broadcast Connects All Worlds, Scares Away Wuzhan at the Beginning

In a cafe inside or outside the Church of the Holy Trinity, Falusan was sitting with a few people, discussing the incredible technologies on the light screen.

"If it's an automatic defense robot, besides the Ruins Guard, I've also seen them in the desert ruins... but their combat effectiveness is really average, and they're not as explosive as Beloberg's."

Holding a cup of coffee, Kavi began to chatter non-stop: "By the way, can we at Xumi create this kind of mechanical device with 'artificial intelligence'?"

Facing Kavi's question, Elhaisen didn't even bother to look up. "You never seem to think before you ask. If Xumi possesses this technology, your architectural aesthetic that silenced investors might be replaced by machines."

Kavi suddenly became anxious: "What's wrong with my aesthetic taste? Judging from your poor architectural aesthetics reserves of the Zhilun School... Hehe, no wonder you can't appreciate it..."

"I really can't appreciate being ordered to make twenty revisions in three days and then being forced to go back to the first version of the design."

Elhaisen spread his hands expressionlessly. "So, our great architect, has the plan for your great building passed the review of the investors this time?"

"……you!"

As if he was hit right in the bull's eye, Kavi's face turned pale with anger, and he turned his head away with a snort.

"Okay, okay, stop arguing. Senior Falusan invited us here this time to discuss with everyone the feasibility of replicating Beloberg's robots in Xumi." Tinari always felt that whenever these two got together, the smell of gunpowder would never fade.

"If we want to research robots, why not get two autonomous machines from Fontaine?" Elhaisen said calmly. "As for 'artificial intelligence'... I've looked up ancient texts about the Inazuma people. It seems their gods created puppets with intelligence and personality hundreds of years ago."

"The Inazuma God... we don't even have the right to ask questions about this, right?" Tinari said with a wry smile. "Does anyone in Xumi have a close relationship with the Inazuma God?"

"I remembered one..."

"I also……"

Nata at this moment——

A yellow-haired traveler who had just caught the great shaman of the smoke-loving master into a black carp couldn't help sneezing. She looked up blankly, always feeling that in some country in a distant land, a blue exclamation mark would suddenly appear on the map.

"Swarovski, a giant fat robot, fought with Xing and his group, while he took Clara away."

"Although it took some effort, the big guy was ultimately no match for us and was quickly defeated."

"That little girl in red..." Xing looked at the direction where Swarovski was going, "Should we chase her?"

"You mean Clara?" Seele said nonchalantly, "Don't worry about it. That girl seems to have a good relationship with Swarovski and is always following him. Swarovski won't hurt her. The most urgent thing is to find the leader first."

"—No need to look for me, Seele." A wild Oleg leader suddenly spawned nearby, approaching with several Earthfire men. "Well done, Seele! I thought we'd be fighting a long battle with these robots."

"Seeing that the people from the underground fire were all fine, Xier finally felt a little relieved."

"Xing put one hand on his hips and said, "Are you the leader? You've finally appeared after much anticipation."

"It was the first time Oleg had seen someone so arrogant on their first meeting, and he couldn't help but ask, "Who are you?"

"Xing briefly introduced the identity of the train crew and explained what had happened in the upper area, including the purpose of searching for the star core."

"Unfortunately, Oleg hasn't heard of any star cores either. However, he recommended a key figure who might know about them—Swarlow."

"He's just an underground robot, how could he know such important secrets?" Dan Heng asked in confusion.

"He's an ancient robot that experienced [that war]... If you're looking for something a bit older, besides him, you'll probably have to ask the 'Great Guardian'."

“When the name of the Great Guardian was mentioned, Oleg’s tone suddenly became excited: “The current ‘Great Guardian’ is nothing but a liar. She used sweet words to deceive the lower districts, and—”

Before Oleg could finish, Bronya angrily interrupted him, "Enough! I won't allow you to insult the Guardian in front of me!"

“While I admit that Ms. Cocolia is a charming woman, what she did was indeed excessive for a leader,” Zain couldn’t help but comment.

"Eh—that's rare! This is the first time I've seen you criticize the older sister in the light curtain." Fulilian leaned close to him with interest and smiled slightly: "Is it because she is a bad woman?"

"What's wrong with being a bad woman? Bad women are also very attractive, okay?!"

Zain recalled the time when Kafka had just appeared in the space station. Her elegance was mixed with danger, dangerous yet charming... It made him unable to stop.

Especially the "tapping" sound of the high heels on the floor, every step seemed to step on his heart.

Of course, Miss Jizi who came later also perfectly hit his XP, but Kafka, whom he met for the first time, still left an indelible impression in his heart.

"The resentment in the lower classes can't be explained in a few words. Oleg was the first to propose a truce, saying we should deal with the real issues first."

"Before that, he arranged for the train trio to rest in the best place in town, and that place... is called the Goethe Hotel!"

"Such a familiar plot... Upon hearing the word 'Goethe', San Yue Qi's face froze, and some bad memories suddenly came flooding back..."

"We're not going to move in this time and become wanted criminals the next day, are we?"

Chapter 44: Bronya was born in heaven and earth, how could she live in depression and be inferior to others for long? ?

"If you're worried, send someone to keep watch," Dan Heng suggested.

"Stand, keep watch? So retro?! Isn't that something only adventure groups in fantasy novels do?" San Yue Qi opened his eyes wide, but the next second, his acting spirit took over and he deliberately yawned: "Heh... yawn, I'm suddenly feeling sleepy..."

"March, I see you're in good spirits. How about..." Xing held her chin up and looked at March Seven meaningfully.

"No, no way!" Sanyueqi said with a tone of grievance, almost like she was acting like a spoiled child. "I've never stayed up all night before, huh? Do you know how damaging staying up late is to your skin?"

"I'll keep watch," Bronya suddenly appeared behind them. "...if you can trust me."

"She just had a long conversation with Chief Oleg. Although they didn't agree on some things, they did learn some past events. It was too much information, and she won't be able to sleep tonight anyway."

"After confirming that Bronya wouldn't be harmed due to her identity, the train trio confidently handed the night watch to her."

"In the middle of the night, Xing had that strange nightmare again."

"Under the inky darkness of the night, Cocolia sat alone on the Grand Guardian's solemn seat. Her once neat hair was now a tangled mess, like her shattered emotions. Her entire body trembled, as if she were enduring unspeakable pain and pressure."

"I've lost her... My wish, your so-called plan... What's the point of all this?"

""Let go of depression, let go of sadness, let go of useless emotions...""

""Shut up!""

With a crisp snap, Cocolia angrily smashed the cup to the ground, shouting, "She's my daughter, she's my only one..."

"What do you know? Soulless things? You will never understand...ever!"

"Xinghe's voice echoed in the empty office: "You haven't lost her... She's waiting to be reunited with you on the other side."

"…Stand up, Guardian. Fulfill your destiny… fulfill a Mother's wish."

-

The Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick.

In the throne room, no one stood up, even though they had sensed that the master who created them and whom they should worship had left.

It wasn't until much time had passed that Albedo was the first to stand. Though the knees of her white gown were stained with dirt, she didn't care at all. A gloom had remained on her face since the departure of the Supreme Being.

Lord Ainz watched the images on the screen with them. When he saw that Cocolia was still being tempted by the star core, the Supreme Lord specifically asked for her opinion.

"This woman named Cocolia is too weak, so it's only natural that she was affected by the star core. If it were me—"

Before she could finish her words, Ainz raised his hand to interrupt her.

Although Ainz-sama said nothing, his attitude... As the Guardian's chief steward, Albedo could certainly guess a little - even though she pondered and thought for a long time before answering, she still disappointed Ainz-sama.

...This is also something she can never forgive herself for.

"That thing could actually tempt ordinary people to fall... Lord Ainz truly values ​​the Star Core." Aura's words sent a tense atmosphere through the Guardians present. His views on the Star Core might be a test not only for Albedo, but also for the other Guardians.

No one wants to disappoint the Supreme Lord.

"Everyone, regarding star cores, I have another answer." Demiurge rolled his eyes. "Our world lacks star cores capable of luring humans, but we do possess magic that can."

The atmosphere at the scene suddenly changed, and all the Guardians looked intently at Demiurge.

"Ainz-sama wishes to preserve the labor force of the various kingdoms."

"My opinion is to use the Star Core-like method within the light curtain, using magic such as mental or spells to influence the king. The king will then issue a decree, forever submitting to Ainz-sama."

Listening to Demiurge's words, the Guardians all showed expressions of sudden enlightenment, and their stiff bodies finally relaxed.

"As expected of you, Demiurge, this is an ingenious plan." Cocytus couldn't help but admire.

"No, Lord Ainz has already noticed this, he's just waiting for us, the Guardians, to bring it up." Speaking of Lord Ainz's foresight, Demiurge showed an expression of immense admiration.

"Xing, who couldn't sleep because of nightmares, decided to leave the hotel and go for a walk."

"Who?!" Bronya, who was on night watch, heard the noise behind her and immediately turned back. Only after seeing Xing did she relax her guard. "Huh, it's you... Can't you sleep either?"

Xing nodded, her face stern and righteous: "I can't sleep without working for eight hours."

“Uh…” Although it wasn’t her first time experiencing this, Bronya was still a little speechless at Xing’s peculiar mental state. “…Someone needs to take care of you.”

"It just so happens that both of us can't sleep, so we just chat together."

"From Bronya's perspective, she completely disbelieved Star and the others' claim that 'sealing the star core will resolve the cold wave.' On the other hand, the Great Guardian initially didn't demand their capture, but then changed his stance so quickly. Add to that the conversation with Oleg... all of this left her feeling incredibly bewildered and helpless."

"She also knows that sometimes her mother's decisions are wrong, but as a soldier, her sense of responsibility to fulfill her duty always prevails."

The girl lowered her eyes: "...Perhaps, my mother's decision was wrong."

"Xing suddenly had an idea: 'Why don't you be the Great Guardian?'"

"You mean..." Bronya's eyes widened, and she quickly waved her hands, shaking her head like a rattle. "No! This idea is too horrible! Absolutely not! It's impossible... I just want the people of Beloberg to live a better life..."

In the Valkyrie Academy, Xing's words enlightened countless people.

For a while, the entire forum was buzzing with discussion, and the opinions supporting Bronya were completely one-sided.

"That's right, princes, generals and ministers, are not born with blood! At this time, they should put on the yellow robe and directly revolt!"

"Support! I'm a veteran in the battlefield and I'm invincible. I'll carry the banner for YaYa!"

"Bronya was born in heaven and earth, how can she live in depression and be inferior to others for long!"

"What? Cocolia's last name is Rand, and so is my Yaya. She can sit on the Great Guardian seat, but my Bronya can't? Why don't we kill our way to the upper level and seize the Bird seat..."

Chapter 45: Denji: It really is the sour smell of love...

"The more she thought about it, the more confused she became. The more confused she became, the more she thought about it. Bronya thought for a long time but was still confused. She couldn't see clearly what was going to happen in the future."

"So Bronya suggested that Xing walk with her, just as a stroll."

"Hey, aren't they supposed to keep watch at night? Are they not going to keep watch at night?" Xiutark scratched his head in confusion.

"Kid, can you please also check the atmosphere?"

Zain spoke with a tone of someone who had experienced it, “When a beautiful girl sincerely invites you for a walk, you should discard all distracting thoughts in your mind—the most important thing right now is to find a way to get this girl to the best tavern nearby and treat her to a drink.”

With his left hand around Shutark's neck, Zain began to teach Shutark the knowledge that adults should know: "If you add a few drops of stone orchid juice to Visast's fruit wine, it will taste sweeter and have a richer aroma. If you give it to that girl—"

Before he could finish, Xiutark beside him had been taken away by Philen.

"Please don't teach Master Shutark those vulgar and useless knowledge."

Zain suddenly broke out in a sweat, and he felt the chilling threat in Philen’s eyes.

“Master Zain, if you continue like this, the next time you lose all your money in gambling, I won’t help you redeem your clothes—you can go to the old village chief and beg for mercy with your bare bottom.”

"I didn't walk far outside before I saw Xi'er and Natasha seemed to be discussing something."

"Xing scratched his head. Can't everyone sleep so late at night?"

"Aren't you guys resting? What are you doing out at this hour?" Xier snorted, "...you don't have any bad ideas, do you?"

Bronya put one hand on her hip and pushed back forcefully, "I couldn't sleep and just went out for a walk. Please retract your baseless accusations."

““Then let’s go somewhere else—”

"Xi'er, don't worry, they might be able to help." Natasha stopped the bickering. "Xi'er is the typical person who speaks tough but is soft-hearted. She means no harm."

"Natasha explained that the recent battle between the Rangers and the miners resulted in numerous injuries. The underground resources, already insufficient, are now stretched even further. They plan to search for medical supplies in Rivet Town, which was previously affected by the Rift, but that would undoubtedly be extremely dangerous."

"After hearing that Seele was the only one on the trip, Bronya immediately said she wanted to bring her along."

"Xi'er: "Wait! I haven't agreed to let you join yet!"

"This is a matter of life and death, so a little help wouldn't hurt, right? I have a lot of experience dealing with Rifts, so I'm sure I can help."

"Hmph, then... don't hold me back." Xier put her hands on her hips and snorted, her tsundere air wafting all the way to the Goethe Hotel."

"The relationship between the two of them quickly melted from the tension of incompatibility just now... Suddenly, the scene became subtle and complex, as if pink bubbles were dancing in the air."

"Uh...did I come at the wrong time?" Xing rubbed her head awkwardly. She felt like a light bulb stuck between these two people, unable to understand the atmosphere!"

"Natasha: "No, Xing, you've arrived at the perfect time. Could you please accompany Seele and Bronya?"

“…the sour smell of love.”

With a "tsk" sound, Denci seemed to have lost all his strength and sat down on a chair in the coffee shop. Although he said words of disgust, his face was full of envy.
