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

"—The power the star core gave her is not limited to this."

"However……"

"As if remembering something, Cocolia suddenly stopped what she was doing and looked up!"

"But it was too late. With the dull roar of machinery, the iron fist of the Creation Engine had already packed with a tremendous force and smashed down heavily on her!"

"A moment later, the snow and wind suddenly stopped."

"Why do I feel... a little sorry for Cocolia?"

Looking at the giant mechanical fist that was bigger than her house, Sitrali shuddered.

Relying on the secret covenant passed down from the Lord of Smoke for thousands of years, she can deploy the White Obsidian Shield to protect herself at any time. In hundreds of years, Xitrali has never encountered anyone who can break her shield.

But if this giant hits me head-on, I'm afraid even ten Baiyao shields won't be able to protect me...

"Traveler, you have been to so many countries and experienced many adventures, but have you ever fought against a giant of this size?" Sitrali suddenly asked.

"Of course there is." Ying thought of a wind-type boy who was obsessed with driving a Gundam in the Xumi Realm.

Speaking of which, the Creation Engine should be even larger than the God of Righteousness, but the latter also possesses the thunder elemental power in the Heart of God. Overall, their combat effectiveness should be similar.

"Then you must have won, right? How did you win?" Sitrali came closer with a curious look on her face, and there seemed to be stars in her eyes.

"Uh, this..."

Ying was speechless for a moment. Although she wanted to brag in front of Xitrali, the reality was that she had her head down picking up elemental fragments on the ground the whole time. As she picked up the fragments, she could rub a big ball of light, and then "pop"... she knocked down the guy who kept saying "I have become a god".

Recalling that battle, Ying couldn't help but sigh.

As expected of a creation of God, it's really tough...

"The power of the star core is with me!"

"Cocolia, having taken a heavy blow, was severely injured and struggled to get up from the ground. Even at this moment, she still did not give up. Instead, she raised her hands high and once again condensed a huge amount of star core energy."

"You...are nothing more than the old world's last ditch struggle before its collapse!"

"I will create a great new world with my own hands!"

"Just as the words fell, a powerful music suddenly rang out from the light curtain—"

""Will find their way back, back on track""

""We've made a choice""

""Go fight against your fate! ! ""

"???"

Under the stage of the Yunhan Society, Yun Jin, who had just finished rehearsing "Eight Wonders Refining Peach City", was preparing to take a break and think about the key music. Suddenly, a burst of passionate voices directly stimulated her and made her feel awake as if she had been electrocuted.

"No... why is there music when they fight?" A master in charge of playing music at Yunhan Society was surprised.

And the music is thrilling!

However, Yun Jin's eyes lit up, and he quickly asked several masters in charge of quyi in the society to write down the score of this song.

"Master Yun, this..." Several old masters looked embarrassed, "This piece of music is too different from our style of opera..."

"Oh?" Yun Jin smiled slightly. She hummed along with the light curtain and beat the rhythm with her hands.

"I think this song is quite suitable. The Eight Wonders Refining Peach City... the key point is to make people's hearts and minds move. Although I don't understand the meaning of the lyrics, we can change it to the style of Liyue, don't you think?"

Chapter 70 Uchiha Madara: Does the other world also have its own Tenkai Zhenxing?

"Accompanied by the passionate music, the sky gradually became dark and gloomy. Only a beam of light descended from above Cocolia's head, shining on her head, as if the Creator God had descended to the world!"

"The surging energy solidified in her palm, transforming into a bizarre, hideous boulder that blocked out the sky and the sun!"

"I seemed to hear Kokolia's hideous laughter again. Huge rocks fell from the sky like falling stars, engulfed in unparalleled golden light."

"There are too many unnecessary movements."

Uchiha Madara folded his arms, raised his head slightly, and his Rinnegan was like a whirlpool in the sea, dangerous and attractive.

"But this power is worthy of recognition. The power is as strong as the Tenkai Zhenxing... well, it should be even stronger." Uchiha Madara nodded in appreciation.

The Tenkai Zhenxing is a forbidden technique that he performed using the power of the Rinnegan. As long as he formed three different seals with Susanoo, he could summon a huge meteorite from the sky to destroy everything.

The boulder summoned by Cocolia is similar to the Tianai Zhenxing. Although she does not need to make hand seals, it takes a moment to gather strength.

"She probably won't be able to summon a second one in the short term..." The bandaged jaw of the Second Tsuchikage Mu trembled. "Although blessed by the star core, she's still a mortal. Frequent use of the power bestowed by the gods will backfire."

"Yes, but I want to know how they blocked the first one." Uchiha Madara said with a smile, "That world doesn't have Ohnoki's super light and heavy rock technique, nor the fifth generation wind shadow's sand."

"...Is the power of preservation really enough to block this attack?"

Uchiha Madara's gaze rested on the flame spear held high in Xing's hand.

"This is a will to protect!" Xing slammed his lance into the ground. A burst of light erupted from the surging flames, and intense light radiated in all directions, forming a solid shield around everyone.

"After the boulder fell, the entire battlefield was covered in dust. When the smoke and dust cleared, San Yue Qi and his companions were slightly embarrassed, but no one was injured."

"Amazing, he's completely unharmed." Beside Liyue's tea stall, Zhongli looked up at the battlefield on the light screen and sighed softly.

The boulder summoned by Cocolia is similar to his "Heavenly Movement", but in his impression, even during the Demon War, few people could withstand his move head-on.

Not only was Xing not injured, but he was also able to perfectly protect others... and this was just a glance from the Star God.

"...This is the power of protection. It is truly mysterious."

Zhongli blew on the hot tea in the cup, and he suddenly remembered that not long ago someone was arguing about who was more powerful between him and the Protector Star God.

Now, the debate has reached an indisputable conclusion.

"Wow, this shield is so warm!" Sanyueqi looked at the flames enveloping him. Not only was it not hot, but it was actually quite warm."

"Even this powerful attack couldn't inflict serious damage on Xing and the others, which means the outcome of this battle is already decided."

"With Xing's charge, the tornado of fire engulfed Cocolia once again. But this time, she didn't resist, but calmly accepted her fate."

"As the crystals covering her body shattered, Cocolia fell heavily to the ground. Without the power of the star core, she transformed back into a human."

"But the backlash from the star core's power has left her completely exhausted, unable to even stand."

As if realizing something, Bronya desperately moved forward, but Seele grabbed her right hand tightly, preventing her from getting any closer. The girl could only sob and plead, "No... Don't take her!"

"Ahem..." Cocolia barely managed to hold herself up, a fierce look flashing in her eyes as she pressed the star core against her chest without hesitation.

"Now, she has finally woken up from that big dream."

"It's too late."

"The core of the star... holds the promise of the future! It will... swallow everything!"

"Cocolia pressed down with her left hand, instantly suppressing the violent power of the star core with her own hands. The manic power instantly devoured the land around her!"

"And her final strength...is a protective barrier."

"Isolating Bronya also isolated her own hope of life. Watching her daughter screaming at the top of her lungs outside the barrier, Cocolia said nothing. Her only atonement was to suppress the star core tightly in her chest until the last moment of her life."

"The light gradually condensed, and the frenzied power of the star core reached its peak. With a crisp crackling sound, Cocolia transformed into countless points of light and disappeared completely."

"But at the very end, in the fading light, she looked at Bronya and finally revealed a mother's relieved smile."

"It's good that she finally woke up from this dream." Jian Ze shook his head. "Unfortunately, she woke up too late."

"Death was a good ending for her," Celie said slowly. "Suppressing the frenzied star core at the last moment can be considered as making up for her previous mistakes."

"Many people spend their lives pursuing a spectacular death, hoping for a chance to burn out... Unfortunately, after the Demon King's death, most of them live ordinary and peaceful lives."

"...Cocolia's death was quite brilliant and wonderful."

Meanwhile, in the Valkyrie Academy, Bronya and Seele, who witnessed Cocolia's death, were lamenting over it.

Although in their world, Cocolia is also her "mother" and the director of the orphanage, she is quite disgusted by her.

"At the last moment, he suppressed the power of the star core and sacrificed himself..." Bronya sneered. "Even though he's just an isomorph, he's much better than that guy who only knows how to control people with the biochip in his brain."

"You always have the right to choose... Haha, it's really ironic."

The world in the light curtain seemed to be a reflection of Bronya's life.

Whether it was Xier, herself, or Cocolia...

The Cocolia in the light screen respects Bronya's choice, but in reality, she is often forced to obey Cocolia's choice because of the biochip in her brain.

"Sister, don't you like this ending?" Xier noticed the solemnity on her sister's face.

"No, I like it very much." Bronya's expression gradually softened, and she held Seele's hand tightly. "In that world, 'I' have Seele, and I also have companions I can trust... It's a very happy ending."

"It's a pity that Sister Mei and Sister Kiana are not here..." Seele said a little regretfully.

"Maybe she'll show up later. That Kiana girl...she creates chaos wherever she goes." Bronya held her forehead. "If she weren't in this universe, it wouldn't be half as lively."

Chapter 71: Keqing: I will fully learn from Beloberg's land management experience

““It’s over…” Seele sighed with emotion.”

"..." Bronya raised her head and looked at the golden aurora in the sky with a sad expression, as if she could see the deceased Cocolia."

"Mother, have you woken up from your dream?"

"Seeing she was too sad, Xing, Sanyueqi, and Danheng didn't bother her, but walked aside and whispered."

"Wow... This exploration wasn't easy." Sanyueqi felt exhausted, his voice weak. "Uh... But what about the [Star Core]? Uncle Yang used to handle it."

"I've already informed Ji Zi and Mr. Walter. I'll leave this [Star Core] to them to seal," Dan Heng said calmly.

"Great! Now, the crisis in this world is over, right?"

"..." Dan Heng turned his head to look at the wildly dancing snow and wind nearby, and shook his head calmly.

"The wind and snow were so fierce that it was difficult to stop them suddenly."

"After the star core is sealed, the cold wave will gradually subside. The rift in this world will no longer expand violently, but it will not vanish into thin air either. Yalilo-VI has been given the possibility of regaining his vitality, but that will take time..."

"It seems like the challenge is over, but in my opinion, the real trouble has just begun."

On the Yujing Terrace in Liyue, Keqing, who was looking through a diagram of the building structure, slowly raised her head. Her gaze passed through the colorful flowers beside the rockery and looked at the lights of thousands of homes in Liyue below the stage.

The wind blew the hair beside Keqing's ear.

She slowly stood up and stood in front of the carved railing. There seemed to be a faint noise in the wind.

There are the hurried footsteps of pedestrians in Liyue Harbor, the crying of children, the sweet whispers of young lovers under the lights of the Lantern Festival, and even the sound of spatulas hitting iron pans when people in the harbor are cooking.

All the voices seemed to be urging her, you still have a lot to do.

As one of the Seven Stars—one of the most powerful individuals in Liyue—Keqing was solely responsible for Liyue's land and infrastructure. But even with Liyue Harbor's work rationally distributed among the Seven Stars and Eight Gates, and Ganyu serving as their secretary, assisting with various chores, she still felt she didn't have enough time.

"As the leader of a nation, the Great Guardian is responsible for all the work of the Seven Stars. She will be very busy from now on."

Combat and governance are very different. In combat, you only need to focus on the enemy and yourself... but governing a place is a myriad of things, a dizzying process. Keqing was curious about how this Bronya would handle such a complex situation.

"Keqing, you should also take care of your health." Grandma Ping smiled kindly in front of the stone table behind her.

"Sir, I naturally understand." Keqing said politely.

"Keqing, I think you could take a break and see how the world inside the light curtain works, and see Bronya and the others..."

Yan Fei, who sat across from Grandma Ping, leaned over the stone table, propping her chin up as she flipped through the thick law book in her hand. "For example, I'd like to study Beloberg's laws to see if there's anything worth learning from or improving for us in Liyue."

"Now that the battle for survival is over and the battle for governance has begun, we can learn from Beloberg's experience."

Keqing lowered her head in thought. "Indeed, Beloberg has been able to survive for hundreds of years in such an extreme environment. They must have some unique advantages. They can serve as a reference for the management and planning of the subsequent Rift Realm..."

“Thank you, everyone.”

"Although Bronya was still immersed in sadness, she managed to cheer herself up and thanked Xing and the others."

"Don't push yourself." Even Xing couldn't crack a joke at this point and could only offer comfort.

"Thank you," Bronya forced a smile. "I'm fine, don't worry. There's still a lot to do... The residents of the city must have noticed the huge commotion caused by the Creation Engine. There are many doubts that need to be explained, and many truths that need to be revealed... I just don't know how to make everyone accept this."

"Let's disguise the truth," Xing suggested.

"You mean... to cover up one lie with another?" Bronya hesitated, "But if I do that, I..."

"Let's do it, Bronya." Seele also supported the suggestion. "In the lower levels, we repeat the same sentence to the children every day: 'Tomorrow will be better.' Everyone knows it's a lie, but at least it allows them to go to sleep with hope."

"If we tell others about what happened here, can you imagine the consequences? People will be disappointed. If even the Guardians can't trust us—if it were me, I don't know what or who I can trust."
