Chapter Summaries

A guard from an alien bio-ship landed on Jarilo-VI to investigate ruins near the last human settlement and collect technology. As she approached the city, she spotted an ugly creature emerging from a purple fissure and disappearing into the icefield.

• A guard asked her fellow guards for permission to investigate ruins on Jarilo-VI, and they let her go as long as she avoided unnecessary destruction.
• She launched in a landing pod and crashed into a mountain hollow on the frozen planet.
• After checking the weather and distance to the settlement, she grew propulsion wings and flew toward it.
• She stopped outside the settlement and planned to sneak in through an underground entrance to collect technology from the ruins.
• She noticed an anomaly, went to investigate, and saw an ugly creature crawl out of a purple-glowing fissure before vanishing into the icefield.

She rejected her sisters’ offer to end the mission and received a Vassal Army and Silencer Individual Armor despite severe spatial interference. The armor awakened and greeted her, leaving her equipped to continue exploring the dangerous planet.

• She rejected her sister’s proposal to terminate the mission and asked to remain in contact while continuing her work on the planet.
• Her sister deployed Biological Spore Sacs containing weapons and a Vassal Army toward her beacon.
• The Spore Sacs landed across the forest, and the vassal creatures rapidly grew, emerged, and gathered around her.
• She opened the last Spore Sac and awakened the Silencer Individual Armor.
• The armor greeted her and praised the Queen, and she returned the greeting.

A woman armed herself as the Vassal Army's Biological Mechas tried and failed to stop an approaching intruder. Sampo Koski appeared and challenged her claim to the planet, leaving her affiliation uncertain.

• The Biological Mechas detected an unidentified target and fired plasma lasers, but their attacks missed and destroyed hundreds of vassal creatures.
• The woman armed herself with Decomposition Serrated Axes and demanded the hidden intruder reveal himself, threatening to have the War Behemoth attack a nearby city.
• Sampo Koski appeared beside the Incubation Pool and introduced himself.
• The woman asked whether Sampo had caused the planet's Space Node disruptions and warp anomalies, then demanded he choose between being a friend or enemy.
• Sampo questioned her right to act as the planet's master and suggested that her group was either the Legion or the Company.

Sampo fought a badly wounded soldier whose forces had been crippled by abnormalities in the Space Node. After the soldier died, an eye-bearing hand emerged from her body, scanned Jarilo-VI, and promised to arrive soon.

• The soldier fought Sampo with her subordinates, but the Space Node’s abnormalities prevented her regiment from using its usual powers.
• After her subordinates died, the wounded soldier prayed to Xina while Sampo acknowledged her strength.
• The soldier collapsed and her body began turning porcelain-like as she died.
• A pale hand with a golden-pink eye tore out of the soldier’s shoulder and scanned the planet behind Sampo.
• The voice from the hand identified Jarilo-VI, recorded its coordinates, and said it would arrive soon.

After the battle, Xina used her time authority to send her consciousness three days into the past and reposition her Biological Planet near Jarilo-VI. The corrected timeline left her on Jarilo-VI fading away, while her earlier self waited aboard the biological mothership.

• Xina woke in the Golden Royal Court and extracted the energy of a massive star.
• Xina traveled to Jarilo-VI and sensed an energy fluctuation in Belobog connected to Nanook of Destruction.
• Xina used her time authority to send her consciousness back several days, then moved her Biological Planet near Jarilo-VI.
• Xina’s figure on Jarilo-VI faded after the timeline was corrected, while her earlier self remained aboard the biological mothership.

Xina ordered 6782 to seize Jarilo-VI, and he led a vast biological fleet toward the planet. The fleet’s early arrival triggered geological disasters and alarmed Sampo, who remembered the invasion was meant to happen three days later.

• Xina checked whether 6782 remembered unpleasant events from the altered timeline, then ordered him to take a mothership and fleet to seize Jarilo-VI.
• 6782 left the royal court and applied to Guard Marshal 0000 for a biological fleet.
• A huge fissure opened on the planet as countless biological warships emerged and headed for Jarilo-VI.
• The approaching fleet disrupted Jarilo-VI’s gravity and caused geological disasters across the planet.
• Sampo saw Biological Spore Sacs falling from the sky and realized the invasion had arrived three days early.

Sampo faced an overwhelming invasion force and confronted Xina, Yaoshi’s Emanator, after she accused him of attacking her people. Xina demanded that he either abandon the planet or face her personally.

• Stelle dismissed Sampo as a stranger while deploying the landing troops.
• Sampo realized the endless swarm of biological weapons would take days to clear and hesitated to use force when he sensed someone watching him.
• Xina appeared above the battlefield and accused Sampo of attacking her woman, then identified herself as Yaoshi’s Emanator.
• Sampo tried to change the subject, but Xina separated her demand for medical expenses from her plan to take the planet.
• Xina offered Sampo two choices: leave the planet or face her in person.

Xina and Sampo negotiated over Jarilo-VI, with Xina claiming the production line beneath Belobog and the source interfering with nearby Space Nodes. After her forces withdrew, Sampo discovered that Xina had taken over a remaining Biological Mecha and revealed a powerful new presence.

• Sampo apologized to Xina and negotiated a division of Jarilo-VI with her.
• Xina demanded the production line beneath Belobog and the source of the Space Node interference, while Sampo asked her to withdraw her forces and protect the planet's residents.
• Xina agreed and ordered her troops to withdraw, leaving a hundred-strong Biological Mecha unit behind.
• Sampo questioned the remaining Mecha, received no response, and headed toward Belobog.
• Xina's voice teased Sampo to show hospitality, and golden light transformed her eyes as a cosmic presence emerged.

Xina reached Belobog and broke into the Great Guardian's office, where she attacked Cocolia Rand. She left Cocolia pinned beneath her foot as she revealed herself as a mysterious woman hidden in black mist.

• Sampo asked Xina about her origins and how she had become known, but she gave him little information.
• Xina spotted Belobog, left Sampo behind, and vanished into the snow toward the city.
• Cocolia Rand was working in her office when the doors opened and a hostile voice sounded behind her.
• Xina slammed Cocolia to the floor, tossed her into her chair, and pinned her by the collarbone.
• Cocolia saw that her attacker was a woman concealed in black mist, with only her golden eyes visible.

Xina tortured Cocolia for information about the “singularity,” then disguised herself as the Great Guardian to deceive Bronya. Bronya shared her views on Belobog’s policies, believing that Cocolia supported her proposal.

• Xina demanded that Cocolia reveal the “singularity,” but Cocolia claimed not to know what she meant.
• Xina slapped Cocolia, then used Miraculous Healing to restore her injuries and teeth before preparing to torture her further.
• Hearing someone approach, Xina read Cocolia’s memories, hid her beneath the desk, and took her place in the office chair.
• Bronya entered and addressed Xina as her mother, unaware that Xina had impersonated Cocolia.
• Bronya presented her thoughts on Belobog’s policies and eagerly asked whether Xina would support her proposal.

Xina, posing as Cocolia, discussed Bronya’s proposal before learning that Gepard had captured three visitors from beyond the heavens. She sent Bronya away and began questioning the outsiders herself.

• Xina noticed a mysterious space train and decided its nature might be tied to an Aeon.
• Xina told Bronya her thinking was one-sided, and Bronya accepted her advice as a lesson from her mother.
• A guard informed Xina and Bronya that Gepard had captured several outsiders near the city.
• Xina ordered the guard to bring the visitors in, then dismissed Bronya to attend to her duties.
• Gepard brought two women and a man to meet Xina, who introduced herself as Cocolia Rand and asked why they had come.

Xina questioned three strangers who claimed they had come to save the world from a Star Core, and dismissed their explanation as unconvincing. The black-haired young man revealed that they also needed the Star Core sealed so they could leave the star system.

• Xina asked the three strangers about their identities and their purpose on the planet.
• The gray-haired girl said they had come to save the world, and the group explained that Star Cores brought disasters and rifts to affected planets.
• Xina challenged the strangers to explain how they would save the world and told them to leave.
• The black-haired young man said they sought cooperation because they could not leave the star system until the Star Core was sealed.

Xina agreed to let the gray-haired girl and her companions search for the Stellaron, while pretending to be Cocolia Rand and assigning Gepard as their guide. After the guests left, Xina revealed she had heard the Stellaron’s voice, opened a Teleportation Gate, and departed with the real Cocolia as her forces recovered Legion forces and technology.

• Xina agreed to trust the visitors and let them begin work in Belobog, offering to cover their expenses.
• Xina summoned Gepard and ordered him to guide the three guests.
• After Gepard and the visitors left, Xina kicked the real Cocolia back under the desk and asked whether she had heard the Stellaron’s voice.
• Xina opened a Teleportation Gate and received a report that her teams had found an Antimatter Legion creature, frozen Void Rangers, mineral samples, and an old production line.
• Xina praised the Biological Mecha, pulled Cocolia from beneath the desk, and walked through the gate with her.

Xina seized the Stellaron and defeated Cocolia’s awakened {Creation Engine} with the War Behemoth Sunday. She left through a Teleportation Gate, abandoning Cocolia beside the wrecked machine as Belobog noticed the commotion.

• Xina tossed Cocolia aside and took the Stellaron from its apparatus.
• Cocolia commanded the {Creation Engine} to awaken in the name of the Great Guardian.
• A gigantic War Behemoth broke through the clouds and answered Xina’s order to attack.
• Sunday tore the {Creation Engine} from the ground and battered it until it was wrecked.
• Xina took the Stellaron and left with her subordinates through the Teleportation Gate, leaving Cocolia behind.
• Belobog noticed the behemoth’s silhouette roaring through the blizzard before it disappeared.

Gepard lost track of the three outsiders as they disappeared beneath Belobog, where two guards searched the underground tunnels for Earth Marrow and entertainment. One guard finished carving a statue of Xina, while the other cornered a robot carrying a little girl and began asking for directions.

• Gepard searched the panicked crowd for the three outsiders but could not find them.
• A guard in pink pajamas found Earth Marrow in the underground tunnels and carved a statue of Xina from a massive piece.
• She ordered a Biological Mecha to send the statue to the surface for display outside her villa.
• On her way back, she found her sister chasing a robot carrying a little girl through ruins littered with broken machines.
• The sister cornered the robot and girl in a dead end, put away her weapon, and asked the girl for directions.

A heavily armed warrior demanded that a local robot lead her to a Weapon Factory in the Underworld, promising to spare the inhabitants if they cooperated. The robot agreed, and the warrior urged it to guide her there.

• The warrior dropped a large assortment of weapons, then insisted that carrying them was reasonable for a warrior.
• The robot scanned the weapons and chose to accept her explanation.
• The warrior asked the robot to reveal the location of a massive Weapon Factory and offered to leave the locals unharmed in return.
• The robot asked what she thought of the people living there, and she said her Queen had not ordered their extermination, at least not yet.
• The robot agreed to help her secure the Weapon Factory because refusing carried a high chance of a massacre.
• The warrior retracted her energy claw and told the robot to lead the way.

Stelle and Svarog entered Jarilo’s ancient Weapon Factory, where its nearly intact production lines restarted and began building robotic soldiers. When the factory’s defenses mistook the group for intruders, Stelle left the armored warrior to handle them while she headed for the control room.

• Svarog sent Clara home with a patrolling robot, then led Stelle to the underground Weapon Factory.
• Stelle reported the factory’s condition to commander 0000 and requested a Capital-class War Behemoth to retrieve it.
• The Biological Mechas restored the factory’s power, and its production lines began assembling robotic soldiers.
• The factory’s defense system activated after the armored warrior picked up a robot, putting the newly built machines into attack mode.
• Stelle walked toward the control room while the armored warrior summoned golden nanite armor and prepared to fight the robots.

Svarog watched the Golden Armor guard fight through the Weapon Factory, where thousands of robots failed to stop her. After cutting down the encirclement, she stood atop the wreckage and looked toward the central control room.

• The Golden Armor guard pushed Svarog deeper into the Weapon Factory while her sisters casually destroyed robots behind them.
• She entered the robot encirclement empty-handed, and the robots' attacks bounced off her force-field shield.
• She drew a gigantic tactical knife and carved a path through the robots, singing as she fought.
• The Golden Armor guard destroyed the last robot, stood atop the wreckage, and looked up toward the central control room.

The two women extracted the Weapon Factory and its ore veins from Jarilo-VI inside a colossal War Behemoth, while Svarog escaped. When three intruders entered the factory, they locked it down and confronted them, intending to deport them rather than kill them.

• A colossal creature tore the Weapon Factory and nearby ore veins from the earth and carried them inside its body.
• Svarog leaped from the damaged factory and vanished into the clouds.
• The two women copied and optimized the factory's code for the Imperial Guard's subordinate system.
• They spotted three intruders inside the War Behemoth and decided to report them and send them back to the surface.
• They locked down the Weapon Factory, and one woman blocked the intruders' path and ordered them to wait for deportation.

March 7th, Stelle, and Dan Heng were captured by guards aboard the Mountain-class War Behemoth Caelus, who refused to hand over the Stellaron and left them under robot guard. The guards questioned whether the trio and the Stellaron might bring trouble to Jormungandr Star.

• March 7th demanded to know who the guards were, where they were, and what had happened to the Stellaron.
• The guards identified themselves as loyal servants of the Frost Annihilation Queen and said they were aboard the Caelus, then refused to give up the Stellaron.
• The guards summoned robots to watch March 7th, Stelle, and Dan Heng while they searched the control room for information.
• March 7th asked Dan Heng what they should do, and he advised waiting until they could return to Jarilo-VI and consult Himeko.
• Stelle’s doubtful look upset March 7th, who pinched Stelle and asked if she thought March 7th was stupid.
• The guards watched the trio through one-way glass and wondered whether the Stellaron could cause trouble for Jormungandr Star.
