FATE Awakening Sword (Part 2)

" —Jannia?" Li Aoz in surprise, "Hey, are you alright?"

"That crimson impact... it's just too strong. The sword's strength can't keep up with it."

Jannia's words carried a hint of regret. "Li Aoz, you're growing too fast. At this rate, who can keep up with you?"

"Don't worry, I won't abandon anyone."

Li Aoz nodded and immediately rejoined the battle, with the Element Architecture generating entirely new terrain.

"Ambra's resurrection time is at most 4 hours. I must clear the field as soon as possible to weaken the [Machine World Society] Mash Gergang's connection to White Candle Star."

Li Aoz gestured and whispered:

"World, rise up and fight for me!"

Rock Giant Spirit rise from the mountain peaks, running and roaring, scattering Frost and Snow and snow everywhere, bringing thunder and hurricanes from the Atmospheric Element, and constantly pelting pale blue acid raindrops, subjecting the machines to endless punishment. Burning Giant Spirit are born from the primers of cannons and propellants, and once they arrive, they wreak havoc in the middle of the mechanical army.

In the shadows, Dark Element crept in silently, cursing every mech hiding behind cover and dragging them into endless darkness...

Li Aoz wasn't a true "architect," but with his years of experience and White Candle Star's unwavering trust in him, he achieved true mastery over the natural ecosystem's architectural system at this moment.

Wherever his fingertips pointed, the humidity and oxygen levels changed instantly. Wherever his gaze fell, flames would ignite or earthquakes would erupt. On the plateau at an altitude of 8,000 meters, he could cause floods at will, making the snowfield, already dyed scarlet, lie prostrate at his feet.

Swords and spears clashed and clashed. Caramel Snail sliced open the monitor of a high-level mech with a single slash, crushed it with a stomp, and stormed into a factory with his companions.

Looking at the facility that was continuously producing citizens of the machine world, the players exchanged glances and made the same decision without prior agreement.

[Self-destruct program set, distance to dimensional explosion: 59, 58...] Several people detached from the Implant Equipment Vanguard and jumped down, returning to their normal human forms. This made it easier for them to escape the factory. Cumin Powder waved behind him and shouted:

Goodbye!

[...3, 2, 1!] (Vow)

The entire factory was instantly folded and compressed, unfolding peacefully on the ground.

[Task Completed]

"Is it over...?" Caramel Snail panted, looking blankly ahead.

With the last factory shut down, it's only a matter of time before the Heroic Soul Legion and Li Aoz's Elemental Giant annihilate the Machine World Society.

Logically, with the councilor defeated, civilization should be saved.

However, the current situation does not seem to be like that.

Boom! With a casual squeeze, Li Aoz unleashed a gravitational pressure that instantly flattened the blood-red battlefield into a smooth mirror surface, and the solid rock layers were also shrunk downwards by more than ten meters by his force.

The black barrier of the magnetohydrodynamics shattered instantly, and space and communication were restored. Li Aoz quickly received Gravity Wave signals from various places, and the sound he sent out also successfully spread outward at this moment.

The Heroic Soul Legion stood in formation to the side, while Sophia Marlene, the Fairy of the Lake, slowly approached.

Thus, the last citizens of the Machine World have been wiped out.

"... It's not over yet."

Sophia Marlene pointed to the top of her head.

Li Aoz raised his head and looked at the Ring Gate in the sky, 20 kilometers in diameter, which blotted out the sun. The gears were intertwined, precisely arranged and combined, working in tandem, with a rhythm that was absolutely beautiful and deserved the title of a crystallization of mechanical industry.

The Machine World Gate still exists.

"What's going on..." Li Aoz frowned in confusion. "The citizens of the machine world have been eliminated. Logically speaking, the rituals of society should have disappeared completely."

"'mechanism.'"

Sophia Marlene said:

"They used ' Social Institution ' to infect and corrupt the entire planet, much like... a viral plague that forcibly corrupted all those on this planet with idealistic tendencies."

"So shameless?" Li Aoz clicked his tongue.

He glanced at the time: there were only 19 minutes left until Ambra was resurrected.

This is going to be difficult. If this drags on, the Machine World Councilor will be resurrected and become stronger again. After a few more enhancements, probably no one on this planet will be able to stop it.

"How could we possibly eliminate all the corrupted quasi-machine citizens on the entire planet in such a short time?"

Li Aoz muttered to himself, his mind racing.

"Drive Mash Gergang away."

Sophia Marlene turned her gaze to Li Aoz and said, "You... if you want to drive away Mash Gergang, you must confront it personally."

"A personal duel?" Li Aoz, puzzled. He looked at the other person but found that the other person's eyes were not on him.

He turned his head and followed the direction of his gaze, which finally landed on the lone wolf-helmeted knight standing to the side.

— [The Heroic Soul Overseer] Li Deweidensi.

"Your duty, your destiny... This is something only you can do. You have always held fast to this and never given up. Even as your body decays, your soul withers, and your consciousness fades, you still adhere to this belief: to launch a counterattack in the final moments."

Sophia Marlene said to Li Aoz, "Give him the sword."

Without her saying anything, Task Panel popped up in front of Li Aoz:

[You have triggered the event - "Witness: Awakening of Destiny"]

[Type]: Event/Witness [Duration]: 15 minutes (Countdown in progress)

[Mission Difficulty]: None (Witness everything) [Cutout Scene]: ...

Sophia Marlene, the "Fairy of the Lake" and guardian of the Falicia heroes, has learned many secrets and stories from the past five thousand years.

"The once-divine Sharp Tooth Peak perished together with one of the Hidden Councilor, the Blacksmith, and poured his power into this sword. Knowing that the gap between him and the Hidden Society was too great, he chose to preserve his strength, passing the weapon to his successor, General Li Deweidensi, before peacefully falling on the battlefield."

Sophia Marlene tells you this story, "However, Li Deweidensi received more than just weapons; he also received the teachings of a mentor:"

"Xiao Liwei, the fate of our civilization has come to an end. With the defeat of Lioz and the destruction of Haynes, the Glory of Pharassia is gone. Realistically, the days of us outsiders are numbered, and there will be no more history of our own."

Li Deweidensi stood quietly to the side, and a breath of life slowly emerged from his broken body.

"But the most important legacy of Falicia is not its weapons, its cultural works, or its bloodline."

The Fairy continued to relay the words of Sharp Tooth Peak:

"It is our spirit: courage, equality, fraternity, and passion."

"What I want you to protect is not our nation and bloodline, but this spirit. You must protect all civilizations in the world that have inherited our spirit, just as you would protect the Pharassia Civilization."

"Do not clash with the successor. The Star Abyss is vast and can accommodate every nation and civilization. Only society is our enemy; otherwise, we are all brothers and sisters."
