Chapter 600

Bronya had no interest in these conversations; her gaze searched the crowd and quickly locked onto a man with dark blue hair.

"Seele, Sampo's over there! You're the fastest, catch him for me!"

"Watch me!"

Before anyone knew it, Seele, who used to call everyone "young lady" and "little princess" and looked down on Bronya, was now willing to listen and help.

However, considering the situation of the Earth's Azure Sea Group, it doesn't seem strange that Seele and Bronya are attracted to each other.

Then Sampo was thrown in front of Bronya.

"Ouch! My friends, why be so rough? Let's talk this out! My back is killing me!"

"Sampo, Xing said you know where she is and can give us directions. It's urgent, so tell us everything you know."

"Huh? Wait a minute, she only asked me to take you to see Boss Svarog, she didn't say where she was!"

"That should be where she is. Please show me the way."

Bronya breathed a sigh of relief. She was so glad she didn't have to waste time searching the streets for Sampo.

At the same time, Natasha had just explained some requirements for the distribution of supplies to Oleg, and then strode over.

"Wait, take me with you if you're looking for Svarog. These supplies are for everyone in the lower district, including the wanderers. Also, Svarog's mechanical legion is a force to be reckoned with; we must seek his cooperation."

"Good!"

Time was of the essence, so the group, who had set off again, did not delay. With Sampo leading the way, they crossed the mining area as quickly as possible and arrived at the mechanical settlement, which was the territory of Boss Svarog.

Strangely, the gates of the Svarog mansion were wide open, and the robots guarding the area did not stop the uninvited guests, as if someone had made arrangements in advance and was waiting for them to arrive.

"Um?"

After a slight surprise, the group didn't dwell on the matter and went straight into the Svarog mansion.

There, Xing sat serenely on a high place, tossing a beautiful gold medal in her hand, while Svarog stood silently in front of her.

"That's... the Great Guardian's medal!?"

Bronya immediately noticed what Xing was holding and took out the medal that Cocolia had given her before they came to the lower area.

Upon closer inspection, the two medals were exactly the same.

This confirms the unusually close relationship between apricots and Cocolia.

"Thump!"

Svarog stepped forward, his tall and imposing metallic body facing Bronya directly, looking down at her from above.

"City Builder's Medal, confirmed. Bronya Rand, Great Guardian candidate, confirmed. Decryption conditions met, 'Stellaron' related data released. Immediate access?"

The deep, mechanical voice uttered unexpected words.

Star & March 7th: "Stellaron!"

Seele & Bronya: "Stellaron?"

Amidst the surprised and uncertain reactions of the crowd, only Xing remained unfazed. She grabbed the medal and said calmly:

"The time has come. Play the materials. It's time for them to know the truth."

"Data access approved, playing now..."

The red mechanical eye on Svarog's head lit up, projecting an ancient video recording.

"The results of years of research are before you; the facts are irrefutable. That so-called 'Stellaron' is the root of all disasters."

"I believe your research, Doctor, but... let's shelve these data for now, unless you can find a way to completely destroy the 'Stellaron'."

"The first backup plan for destroying the 'Stellaron' is to perfect and rebuild the original sealing platform; this is the prerequisite for everything... The second backup plan for destroying the 'Stellaron' is the Burning Legion, a flame-specialized machine based on the Power of Preservation... The third backup plan for destroying the 'Stellaron' is that we still need one... sizzle..."

"It's discovered! It's conscious! It can actually coexist with the City Builder! It wants to use the guardians to... everyone..."

"Everything we've done has been exposed, it will destroy everything, and all our efforts will have been in vain!"

"No! All of this still has meaning. We must preserve these achievements, preserve them in places it wouldn't expect... and then one day..."

"Sizzle!"

The guardians and scientists of ancient times make their appearance one by one, seemingly a long record spanning many years. It recounts how the first generation of guardians recognized the existence of the "Stellaron," and how subsequent generations continued their research into a plan to destroy the "Stellaron," until it was completely interrupted by some terrible event.

After that, there will likely be a long period of oblivion. At least in Bronya's memory, she had never heard of the term "Stellaron".

Bronya immediately connected the dots to Cocolia's physical and mental abnormalities.

"It's conscious, it coexists with the City Builder? Mother always said that the guardians bear a far heavier burden than I imagined!"

Bronya's pupils trembled as she clenched her wrists, her face turning deathly pale.
