He had used this trick to successfully chop off Yu Hu's head.
He was not mistaken. The moment Xier attacked, seven or eight afterimages appeared around the monster, and the slashing attacks were almost simultaneous in an instant - the monster had no chance to fight back until it died.
"I really want her to join the Demon Slayer Corps..." Muichiro lay flat on the floor, his indigo pupils reflecting Seele's blue skirt like butterfly wings, and he was lost in thought.
I really want to know, how did she do it?
...It would be great if you could teach me.
"Clara was very grateful for being rescued by the others and said she would tell Mr. Swarlow about it. She hoped that this incident would ease the conflict between the Earthfire and Swarlow."
"Speaking of Swarovski, we are planning to go see him. Can you take us to see him?" Xier said.
Clara was very embarrassed: "But... Mr. Swarovski has always disliked communicating with others, especially those from the [Underground Fire]..."
"Of course I know that, but he has avoided talking to us so many times that we insist on seeing him this time."
"But Mr. Swarlow doesn't believe in human emotions. He only believes in the results of calculations."
"Clara is very adamant about this matter. No matter how much Xing and Bronya persuade her, she is unwilling to take everyone to see Swarovski, fearing that it will cause a large-scale conflict and cause injuries."
"Finally, Clara realized she couldn't convince him anymore, so she found an excuse and ran away."
"Seeing Clara's attitude, the others were in a dilemma. After a brief discussion, they decided they had to convince Clara first. Otherwise, even if they bypassed the door, Swarovski would identify them as intruders, and conflict would be inevitable."
"Clara kept mentioning Swarlow's calculations..." Danheng paused for a moment before saying, "'It's impossible to prevent the disaster by relying solely on the people of the lower districts.' That's what she said, and that's where the breakthrough point lies."
“The power of Earth Fire alone is indeed not enough to resolve the planetary core crisis, but his calculations are already outdated, and the new [variable] has not yet been incorporated into the equation…”
Xing suddenly realized: "We are the new [variable]!"
"What a clever kid! He found the key to the problem in an instant."
In winter, Alechino glanced at the empty seat at the end of the executive officer's seat with a hint of disdain: "On the other hand, there is a guy who only knows how to solve problems with force..."
"Potential is one of the reasons why Her Majesty the Queen took a fancy to him."
From the depths of the palace, soft footsteps echoed, accompanied by a man's cold, low voice. A corner of Dotore's mask slowly emerged from the darkness, his snow-white robes appearing sacred and pure in the moonlight.
Second seat of executive officers—Dr.
Alechino frowned subconsciously.
If she had not become an executive officer, she might have maintained some respect and recognition for the Second Seat, but after learning about his "cooperation" with the previous servant, she now only wanted to send him to meet the previous servant in person.
"Why, are you also interested in Dan Heng?" Alechino stared coldly at the masked man opposite. "It's a pity that Zhidong doesn't have a child like him."
"Strong, intelligent, calm... He's truly an exceptional specimen, a rare find even across all of Teyvat. But I'm more interested in Xing."
Speaking of stars, Dotole's originally low tone gradually became high and excited. He took a deep breath and raised his head slightly. When the image of stars appeared on the light screen... the look under the doctor's mask was more like admiring a flawless work of art.
"A body that can hold a star core...wonderful, but...it's a pity she's not in Teyvat."
"You seem to be very similar to that lady in Black Tower." His intoxicated look reminded Alechino of the doll lady in the space station, but in her opinion, Black Tower's personality was much better than her colleague's.
"No, no, no. Although we are all searching for answers, the lady in the black tower is clearly lacking something."
Dotore reached out and gently tapped the black mask on his face. The crisp sound echoed in the empty room.
"In my opinion, she hasn't completely abandoned her humanity—in the pursuit of answers, having humanity will only restrict the experiment."
Hearing this, Alechino sneered: "But have you ever thought about the possibility that you might die from this one day?"
"Haha, of course." Dottore turned around calmly. "As a scholar, I would consider the possibility of an outcome like 'death'."
"But... I'm more curious about what kind of experiment is needed to achieve such a result."
Chapter 51: Singed: I created Svarrok? Really?!
"After finding the breakthrough, Xing and the others immediately followed Clara."
"As a token of his sincerity, the all-knowing Master Dan Heng even helped her repair the power supply."
"This distressed Clara greatly. She knew that everyone in front of her was a good person, but she didn't want to watch them clash with Swarovski."
"Clara, you're quite observant, aren't you? Do the three of us look like we're from the lower class?"
Seeing Clara's puzzled look, March Seven explained, "We're not from this world, and Swarovski's calculations don't include us. If his calculations were based solely on the people of the Lower District, then the results would no longer apply."
"'From another... world?'" Clara puffed up her cheeks and shook her head softly at Sanyueqi's words. "Please, please don't treat Clara like a child! Those stories are all made up by adults. Clara knows..."
"Clara, Xing and Sanyueqi didn't lie. I believe them," Bronya soothed. "I understand how you feel. You want things to improve in the lower district, but you don't want anyone to get hurt. But my intuition tells me that Sanyue, Danheng... and Xing, the three of them, are the turning point for this world."
"Let them meet with Swarovski and see if the calculations are any different. There's nothing to lose for you or him, right?"
"Bronya's words seemed to strike a chord with Clara. After a brief moment of reflection, Clara finally agreed."
"Perhaps, as March Seven said, Mr. Swarovski's calculations are a thing of the past. Even if Clara wants to change Swarovski's mind, she'll have to wait a long time. Why not take this opportunity to be brave? Perhaps, everything will turn around?"
"Clara led Xing and the others into the final gate and successfully met Swarlow."
"Due to Clara's recommendation, Swarovski is willing to give Xing and the others a chance to speak. As for his attitude, it depends on the outcome of the negotiation."
"Unfortunately, just as the speech began, Xing briefly mentioned the word 'star core'. The previously relatively 'gentle' Swarovski suddenly became nervous. He assessed the threat level of everyone to the highest level and immediately joined the battle without further explanation."
"As a prototype, Swarlow's strength is vastly superior to the other robots in the tribe. Not only can he manipulate countless missiles at will, bombing with impunity, but he can also summon giant mechanical hands to firmly control his opponents."
Anbesa was stunned by the scene of Swarovski fighting five people alone.
Is this... is this the power of technology? !
It's like magic!
Missiles launched from Svarro's back like crazy, overwhelming everyone. His palm cannon was also extremely powerful, a direct hit could instantly destroy a fully armed Noxian soldier. If a robot like Svarro were to arrive on the battlefield, he could easily overwhelm the Demacia army alone!
At the same time, in the lower city, Zaun.
Countless strong men were carrying large and small mechanical equipment to a secret underground factory.
Though hidden, the factory's interior was vast. It housed not only the scrap metal from Singed's laboratory but also enormous, behemoth-like machinery. These machines, both new and old, piled high and low, creating a dazzling display. Heaped together, they resembled a two-story steel fortress.
As early as when he first met Swarovski in the Great Mining Area, Hilko began to increase his collection of machinery in the Upper City. This time it was Singed's turn to guess Hilko's thoughts.
But it's quite easy to guess - it's nothing more than a replica of the robot named "Swarovski" in the light curtain.
After witnessing the powerful firepower of Swarovski suppressing five men, no one would be unmoved by the prospect. It was natural for Hilco to be interested, and he fully understood. However, understanding was understanding, and the technological gap would not be changed by human will.
"Doctor, I will support your ideas and research, but before that..." Hilco pointed at Swarovski, who was fighting fiercely with everyone in the light curtain, "You may have guessed what I mean-"
"Unfortunately, that kind of thing can't be done."
Before Silko could finish his words, Singed immediately denied his delusion.
He shook his head calmly and walked slowly forward until he reached the deepest part of the factory, where he stopped in front of a mechanical turret that was as tall as a man and had a dark red light flowing on its surface.
"The H-28Q Evolution Turret, an automated defensive weapon developed by Professor Heimerdinger for Piltover's defenses, once represented the continent's pinnacle of craftsmanship."
Singed stroked the mechanism beneath the turret. Large, twisted cylinders clustered together, their core wrapped in twisting copper tubes like veins. Such a dense concentration of copper tubes must have been used to dissipate heat. Legend has it that after firing several times, this turret would unleash a powerful laser—one that even the thickest Demacia walls could not withstand.
"Although it's hard to imagine where you got this stuff from in Uptown..."
"But I can tell you clearly that even if I had technology ten times more sophisticated than this fort, I would not be able to replicate the legend of Swarlow."
"...This is not the answer I want to hear, Doctor." Faced with Singed's answer, Hilco was not angry. Instead, his voice was quite calm.
"Don't worry, I'll tell you the answer." Singed waved to him, motioning for Hilko to come closer and take a look with him.
He pointed to the movement inside the turret - although time has passed, the movement is still well preserved. Through the gaps between the turrets, Hilko can see the chain on it engaged on a metal wheel less than 1 cm thick, and each link on the chain is only as big as a sesame seed.
"Legend has it that the diameter of Piltover's early turrets exceeded two meters. Later, after modifications by Professor Heimerdinger, the diameter was reduced to 20 centimeters. This modification allowed the turrets to be equipped with more functions and provide greater firepower."
"But even Professor Heimerdinger took decades to achieve this..."
Singed sighed, "To create a mechanical behemoth like the Svarroth, besides intelligent technology, it also requires powerful firepower, missiles, and giant maneuvering hands... Simply put, the craftsmanship required is equivalent to shrinking this 20-centimeter diameter movement to less than 2 millimeters."
"Besides, we don't know what energy source powers Swarlow. If it's electricity... unless you're willing to sacrifice half of the Lower City's electricity, even if we build him, we won't be able to make him move."
"If he can't act, then what's the difference between him and a useless lump of metal?"
Chapter 52: The air on Mount Ozang is filled with joy
"Just when Swarlow seemed to be in a great position, a howitzer suddenly landed precisely at his feet, interrupting his further actions."
"Oh my god—how can we fight without a doctor?" Natasha and Sambo suddenly appeared.
"Nata? How come you guys..." Xier was surprised.
"'If you don't agree, don't talk too much'—that's what you mean, right? Thanks to old Sambo, I was prepared." Sambo tossed his hair coquettishly.
"Nurse is still... reassuring."
"With Natasha joining us, everyone was no longer afraid to fight Swarovski. Finally, after everyone's fierce battle, Swarovski was defeated. After all, he was facing Galaxy Batman, who could withstand Doommon's lasers, the cold-faced Little Blue Dragon, Little Pink Dragon, and... the strongest head launcher in the lower area."
"Looking at Swarovski, who was sizzling and unable to fight anymore, Natasha wanted to kill him directly, but Clara rushed out from the side and blocked Swarovski's way."
"Faced with Clara's red eyes, Natasha couldn't continue her attack."
"Mr. Swarovski... please stop being so stubborn. Can you tell everyone what you know? You said you'd grant every wish for me, right? Clara's biggest wish right now is for everyone to unite, like... like a family."
"Clara has learned one thing over the past period of time: the results of calculations don't necessarily bring happiness to everyone."
“Even though people know the world outside the cage isn’t very beautiful, they still want to stick their heads out to take a look.”
"Faced with Clara's demands, Swarlow finally agreed to Xing and the others' request, willing to release information related to the star core and no longer guard the core."
"Data retrieval approved, playing now."
"As soon as the words fell, the light above Swarovski's head turned blue, forming a shadow in the air."
"Two figures are conversing within the light curtain. One is a researcher responsible for the star core, and the other is the Great Guardian. From their conversation, we learn that the one who activated the star core, causing the planet to be enveloped in a cold wave, was none other than the great Alisa Rand!"
"But once the news spread, it would inevitably shock the people. They had no choice but to conceal it."
"This news can only be announced if researchers can find a way to completely destroy the core of the star."
"But Beloberg's researchers devoted countless hours to this seemingly simple goal, yet ultimately achieved nothing... As a last resort, they chose to seal their findings, letting them sink into the mists of time."
"I've heard from Mr. Yang and Miss Jizi that star cores are the cancer that the star gods spread across the worlds. Now I see that it's indeed true."
"The power of a star god is indeed difficult for mortals to dissipate. Liu Yun, I'll hand the star core over to you. Are you interested in giving it a try?"
In front of the stone table on the top of Aozang Mountain, the dark black deer raised its head, and its eyes, which were emitting a faint golden light, seemed to be looking at the tall and elegant young woman in front of it with a hint of playfulness.
"Xie Yue... You old fellow, there's no need to test me. If the star core were truly placed before me, I would certainly be willing to give it a try."
As he spoke, Master Liuyun Jiefeng pushed up his red half-framed glasses and raised his chin proudly.
When she closed her eyes and raised her head, the tassels from her chin to her collar formed a straight line, and her snow-white neck contrasted with the transparent black stockings on her chest, her beauty surpassed that of a human.
"Liuyun, can your mechanical skills work on the core of a star?" Lishui Dieshan Zhenjun asked curiously.
"How can mortal mechanisms be compared to those of immortals?" True Monarch Liuyun Jiefeng lifted his teacup and said slowly, "Although the star core is a creation of the Star God... it is not the Star God himself. Even that little girl Xing was able to imprison her with my flesh, so why can't I?"
"But mortals' power can still create Swarovski. Liuyun, can your mechanical skills create Swarovski?" True Lord Xueyue Zhuyang said slowly, as if he found it very interesting.
"That tin man looks quite brave... He fought five men on his own and held his own. Liuyun, your mechanical skills should be able to do the same, right?"
The rather conceited expression on Liu Yun's face suddenly became a little stiff.
"Of course...! But in my opinion, that piece of iron is really not worth mentioning!" She wiped the sweat from her forehead calmly, took a deep breath, and tried to appear calm.
"This isn't a war between demons and gods, so what's the point of creating something that can only be used for fighting and killing? My [Wind Chasing Skiing Machine] and [Mechanical Cooking Machine] are both incredibly sophisticated. Aren't they much more practical than that iron lump?"
"The mechanical settlement is covered in snow, so the [Wind Chasing Skiing Machine] is perfect for that. If Clara doesn't eat properly, my [Mechanical Cooking Machine] will be just the ticket... And if danger strikes, I also have an improved version of the Return Machine. Every wanderer in the settlement has one, so why would we even need Swarovski?"
"Uh……"
Master Xueyue Zhuyang was silent for a moment, then burst into laughter and said, "Liuyun, after all this talk, I don't think you can create Svarro, right?"
"N-Nonsense!"
Being exposed in front of her, Master Liuyun Jiefeng's face flushed red. She gritted her teeth and argued, "I just don't bother to create him... I don't bother! How can the affairs of the immortals be considered uncreatable?"
Then came some difficult to understand words, such as "driven by the magic power of immortals" and "certified by the Emperor", which made Xueyue and Lishui burst into laughter, and the Aozang Mountain was filled with a happy atmosphere.
"Inside the curtain of light, Bronya was deeply shocked after seeing the truth. She stumbled, and it seemed as if the world had plunged into darkness."
"Ignoring the fragmented details, the conclusion is that this world's higher-ups, including the Guardians themselves—they've long known that the [Star Core] is the source of the disaster. However, for the sake of the city's stability, they chose to conceal the truth, and their secret research attempts to destroy the Star Core also ended in failure."
"Danheng calmly stated the reason for Bronya's pain."
"Bronya doesn't understand. Mother clearly knows the dangers of the Star Core, so why is she so hostile towards Sanyueqi, Danheng and others who claim they can resolve the Star Core crisis?"
"...Mother couldn't possibly be unaware of Beloberg's crisis."
