Chapter 83

As he spoke, he reached out and grabbed at Clara...

However, a huge figure suddenly appeared behind Clara, and a giant iron hand was slamming down on the two of them.

[Do not touch Clara.]

Clara, close your eyes.

As soon as Svarog finished speaking, the instant Clara closed her eyes, a huge iron hand grabbed the arms of the two guards before they could react.

Pfft! Pfft!

Blood splattered.

"Aaaaaah!!!"

Two extremely shrill screams suddenly rang out, and the pupils of Arya and the other two beside her contracted instantly as they stared in astonishment at what was happening before their eyes.

The arms of the two guards were ripped off, flesh and bones torn off, exposing blood, flesh and white bones, with crimson blood spurting out.

Looking at the mechanical creature that had appeared behind Clara without her noticing, a chill ran down her spine. When did this thing appear? How could it have suddenly appeared behind this girl?

Moreover, judging from the mechanical creature's voice, it was a being that protected Clara.

At this moment, they finally understood that they had kicked a hornet's nest. They had originally thought that this beautiful girl was just a little lamb, easy to bully.

I never expected to have such terrifying mechanical creatures protecting me.

As nobles, they actually knew something about these mechanical creatures; the empire had been researching them for a long time, but had not invested in them on a large scale.

People who have access to these things are definitely not ordinary.

Before the master could think any further, the screams abruptly stopped. Perhaps Svarog had no interest in torturing others, and simply took the life of the struggling guard, ending his suffering.

"Wait a minute, we can talk this over, I can..."

At this moment, the nobleman realized what was happening and quickly stretched out his hands to tell Svarog, who was standing next to Clara, not to act impulsively, as he was prepared to make amends.

However, Svarog showed no sign of stopping.

[Prepare for annihilation; leave no survivors.]

Now that things have come to this point, it's only natural to eliminate them completely; in his calculations, everyone here deserves to die.

To avoid calculation errors, Svarog waited until Aria's family stopped pretending and truly revealed their true colors before taking action.

Plot details cannot be taken as the sole basis for judgment; actual data is needed. Now that the data has been obtained, this family is even more cruel and perverted than depicted in the anime.

Those guards and servants were also damned people who participated in it.

Clara isn't used to large-scale killings here, so she'll have to do it herself.

Seeing that Svarog continued to approach him and ignored his orders, the master panicked completely and pushed the servant next to him in front of Svarog to buy himself some time.

"Help! Help!"

After pushing the servant out, the middle-aged man no longer cared about anyone, not even his wife and daughters, and ran towards the door while shouting.

He's a nobleman, how could he die here?

Seeing his actions, his wife and daughter Arya realized what was happening and hurriedly followed him, running frantically towards the outside of the mansion.

Svarog slapped the servant to death, then locked onto the group and followed them out.

He did not use artillery or missiles, because this was the capital city, and according to his analysis, using missiles would attract unnecessary attention.

These ordinary human creatures could be easily dealt with using only their hands...

Even so, this will only make them more terrified, and can be considered a punishment.

Svarog was incredibly fast; he caught up with her in the blink of an eye.

This intensified the three's fear, making them feel that this mechanical creature was a hellish demon ready to claim their lives.

Chapter 18 Bloodshed

Seeing that he was about to be caught up, the male homeowner noticed his wife following closely behind, and in a fit of rage, he pushed her to the ground without hesitation.

Use her to buy yourself time, and then wait for the guards to arrive.

"Ah!! You..."

The woman was completely taken aback by her husband's actions and was thrown to the ground, her eyes filled with resentment.

He wanted to say something, but then he felt a figure getting closer and closer behind him, and cold sweat broke out on his brow.

She tried to get up, but found that she had twisted her ankle and couldn't get up for a while. She could only look to her daughter for help.

"Aria..."

Hearing her mother's voice, Arya was startled. Turning around, she saw her mother slumped on the ground, looking at her with pleading eyes.

"Help me..."

The lady pleaded, her once beautiful face now pale and ashen.

To everyone's surprise, Arya didn't stop when she heard this. After noticing Svarog chasing after her, she turned around and ran away in a panic!

The woman was startled by her daughter's behavior and turned completely cold.

It seems that not all humans are emotional beings, and not everyone values family ties highly.

Human emotions are truly unfathomable.

Svarog's cold, mechanical voice came from behind her.

The lady's pupils contracted, her face turned deathly pale, devoid of any color. She trembled violently, and her head turned slowly, like a rusty machine.

Then all that could be seen was an iron hand filled with the stench of blood.

Blood splattered!

Before she could even see clearly, her world began to spin, and as she landed, she saw her headless body, blood gushing out...

[...]

Having dealt with the lady, Svarog turned his attention to the master of the house; he was in no position to escape.

However, the noise inside the villa alerted the mansion's guards, and amidst the clamor of footsteps, a large number of guards appeared and quickly came to the nobleman's side.

"Destroy it! Tear it down!"

With the guards present, the nobleman seemed to have gained some confidence and immediately pointed at the pursuing Svarog and shouted.

"What kind of enemy is this? A machine? A lump of iron?!"

Seeing Svarog appear before them, the guards exchanged glances, none of them daring to step forward. It seemed this iron lump was not to be trifled with!

"What are you waiting for? Take it apart, then get rid of that woman inside!"

Seeing that the guards did not make a move, the nobleman became furious.

Wasn't this the very thing he raised these people for? He knew a little about mechanical creatures; although they were indeed very strong to ordinary people, they could be easily destroyed by a true powerhouse with their bare hands.

With so many people here, can't we even dismantle a lump of iron?

"Yes, sir."

Despite some hesitation, they dared not refuse the nobleman's order.

So these armored guards, armed with swords and muskets, marched towards the robot in front of them. Judging from their actions, they were quite strong, far stronger than ordinary people.

Ordinary mechanical beings might not be able to withstand so many people, but they were facing Svarog. No matter how many ordinary people there were, they would be utterly helpless against Svarog.

As Svarog watched the guards charging towards him, he met them head-on without hesitation, raising his massive iron fist and delivering a single blow to each of them.

Their armor offered absolutely no protection against Svarog's fists.

In no time at all, all the guards here were beaten to death by Svarog, and not a single body was intact.

Even bones crumble into pieces under the force of gravity.

Blood slowly flowed from these lifeless corpses, staining large patches of grass dark red, and a foul stench gradually filled the air.

Despite killing so many people, Svarog remained unchanged. Although he did not condone killing, killing was sometimes the most efficient method.

Moreover, some people shouldn't even be living in this world.

After learning what kind of world this was, he was already prepared for rivers of blood to flow.

Because this corrupt world needs killing!

"How so..."

"They're all dead."

Seeing his guards utterly defeated by the mechanical creatures before him, the nobleman was filled with disbelief and fear, his back drenched in cold sweat.

With each step Svarog took closer to him, he felt his breathing quicken.

"I am a nobleman, you can't kill me! The empire won't allow it... No, don't kill me..."

However, before he could finish speaking, Svarog had already grabbed his head, and with a squeeze, his head exploded like a watermelon.

His words and his noble status meant nothing to Svarog!

This thousand-year-old empire was indeed a protective umbrella for some nobles, but the empire was destined to perish.

There are no dynasties in Shenzhou that last for four hundred years because of the inevitable cycle of division and unification. A dynasty that does not change for too long will inevitably decay.

This empire existed for a thousand years, but its lifespan has come to an end!

There's only one left.

Having dealt with the nobles, Svarog's mechanical eye locked onto the last important target, Aria.

A family should always be together.

As a mechanical being, he was well aware of the consequences of not eliminating the root of the problem.

Arya was running desperately, panting heavily, her clothes soaked with sweat. Looking at the approaching gate, she felt for the first time a deep resentment at how vast her family's mansion was.

Otherwise, they would have already run away, and perhaps then they would still have a chance of survival.

Now she can't stop, and she doesn't dare to stop. Just thinking about what Svarog looks like makes her legs go weak.

A strong sense of regret welled up inside him; why had he brought that woman home?

I never imagined that the girl who seemed to have no background would have such a terrifying mechanical creature by her side.

At the same time, he was filled with resentment and hatred, hating that this woman had such mechanical guards by her side, and why she had to pretend to be an ordinary person, without even shoes.

If it weren't for these reasons, I wouldn't have set my sights on her, and things wouldn't have turned out this way.

Although Aria likes to bring home country folk who have just arrived in the capital and treat them like toys, she doesn't just lay a hand on anyone.

They usually choose outsiders who seem to have no real power or connections.

Who knew that this time I would misjudge?

Finally, just as Arya was about to reach the mansion gate, the relief on her face hadn't even had time to rise before it turned into terror.

Chapter 19 Clara Wants to See It with Her Own Eyes

Aria stopped running abruptly, her eyes filled with terror, her whole body trembling uncontrollably. She took two steps back, her legs gave way, and she collapsed to the ground.

"No, don't kill me..."

Looking at the tall mechanical body that suddenly appeared in front of her, Arya stammered.

"What do you, no, what does she want? I'll give her anything she wants, just spare my life."

I'll give you a chance to speak.

[Question: Those humans who were tortured to death by you must have pleaded with you for similar things.]

And what is your choice?

"Humans..."
