The sheer absurdity of the Empire State Building standing up was absurd enough for anyone to call it absurdity knocking on absurdity's door—absurdity had come home.

Especially for those watching it through a video call, it was like being tricked into going to Japan for work, only to somehow be assigned to the set of an adult film, thinking they would get to have a good time with the actress.

Never in their wildest dreams had they expected their role to be the "impotent husband." In a full 120-minute film, they had actually spent the entire time lying in bed with their eyes shut, sleeping through it all.

And the culprit behind all this was none other than Sherlock!

The reason he had made the Empire State Building stand up was simple: Sherlock had discovered that the Chitauri Soldiers were actually beginning to develop into something like a swarm!

If he did not find a way to break the deadlock, this Battle of New York, which had been ridiculously easy in the movie, might well turn into the final battle from Ender's Game!

The solution to the Chitauri's swarm-like offensive was also simple: rely on the Empire State Building, transformed into a Gundam, and use its absolutely enormous size and strength to crush those bugs that were not much bigger than humans!

Of course, this was no easy task for Sherlock. Alchemy had to envelop the entire Empire State Building at all times. In essence, the building had to remain in a state that overlapped between an alchemical product and raw materials in order to move.

Fortunately, Sherlock now had the Seven Deadly Sins assisting him. Otherwise, just the computational load of making the Empire State Building stand up would probably have overheated his brain and roasted it into brain
