"Boss, is this the new katana you made for me? Why does it look different from my previous katana?"

After giving Loren a thorough beating, 2B finally turned all her attention to her upgrade.

At that moment, she held the brand-new katana Loren had crafted for her, her eyes brimming with delight.

"This isn't actually a katana. The proper term is a Miao Saber." Loren shook his head and explained.

"A Miao Saber?"

"Yes. The Miao Saber was a weapon from Dragon Country's cold weapon era.

It was a new type of weapon created by combining the Dragon Country Tang Sword and spear to counter katanas.

The Miao Saber has a long blade and comes in two sizes: one is five chi, or 160 centimeters, while the other is three chi seven cun, or 120 centimeters.

Yours is the longer version, measuring 160 centimeters.

The Miao Saber combines the traits of both a blade and a spear. It can be used as a spear or a sword, held one-handed by the hilt or wielded two-handed by the handle.

Using both hands makes it easier to exert force, which gives it greater killing power." Loren explained with great seriousness.

As a transmigrator, Loren's soul was still that of a Dragon Country native.

So when crafting weapons, he naturally gave priority to Dragon Country style.

"I see. This Miao Saber is so beautiful. I love it. Thank you for the gift, Boss."

2B examined the Miao Saber in her hands from top to bottom. The more she looked at it, the more satisfied she became, before leaning over and planting a kiss on Loren's face.

"This Miao Saber was forged from Adamantium, so it cuts through iron like mud and is indestructible.

Even temperatures of 500,000 degrees can't melt it. It can only be forged through special methods.

And in this universe, I should be the only one who understands that technique."

"So, other than you, Boss, no one can damage this Miao Saber?"

"You could say that, but it's not absolute. There are too many absurdly powerful beings in this universe.

So you still need to remain appropriately cautious. Don't become arrogant, understand?"

"Understood. I'll make good use of this divine weapon."

2B nodded, then casually swung the Miao Saber at the steel experimental table before her.

In an instant, the table was sliced cleanly in two as if it were tofu.

"!!!!"

"It's way too sharp!"

"Of course. 'Cuts through iron like mud' isn't just an empty phrase.

With this blade, on this planet, aside from Adamantium itself,

there's basically nothing you can't cut through with one slash. And if there is, then make it two."

Loren spoke with absolute confidence. After all, Adamantium's reputation was no joke.

In terms of hardness, even Vibranium had to give way before it.

So Loren wasn't making empty claims when he said it could cut through most substances on this planet. He had facts to back it up.

"Doesn't that mean no one can block an attack from this Miao Saber?!" 2B was stunned by Loren's words.

"Theoretically, yes. But like I said, Adamantium is an exception.

And we aren't the only ones in this world with Adamantium. The military has some too.

Although the Adamantium formula has been lost in this universe, some leftover stock from previous generations still exists.

Still, in such a vast world, the odds of encountering someone else equipped with Adamantium are very low.

Unless Mutants exist in this world. Then there really is one monster who wouldn't fear your Miao Saber." Loren muttered.

"What are Mutants? And what kind of monster wouldn't fear a Miao Saber forged from Adamantium?"

2B's eyes were filled with curiosity when she heard Loren's words.

"Mutants are a long story. If we really traced it back, we couldn't finish in a day and a night, so let's not talk about it.

Anyway, we haven't seen that group in this world yet, so they most likely don't exist.

As for that monster I mentioned, he's a member of the Mutant race and one of the people bonded with Adamantium.

He can grow Adamantium claws from between his fingers. They're incredibly destructive, and he also has an absurdly powerful healing ability.

So ordinary weapons can't kill him. Only weapons forged from Carbonadium, one of the four great metals, can counter him.

But don't worry about it. Mutants don't even exist in this world, so it's even more impossible for that monster to appear."

Loren shrugged and spoke dismissively. The monster he was referring to was naturally Wolverine.

In fact, during the early days after arriving in this world, he had specifically conducted an in-depth investigation of it.

Through his research, he discovered that this world differed from every Marvel parallel universe he knew.

It was like an entirely new and independent Marvel parallel universe.

In this universe, Mutants did not exist, much like the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

So characters like Deadpool and Wolverine naturally did not exist either.

But it only resembled the Marvel Cinematic Universe somewhat. It wasn't exactly the same.

Therefore, there were many events that even he, a transmigrator, couldn't predict in advance.

That was precisely why he had told 2B to remain careful and cautious.

After all, no Marvel parallel universe was simple.

"Boss, now that you've put it that way, I actually really want to see what that monster looks like." 2B said with interest.

Hearing that, Loren fell into thought, then said meaningfully, "There may be a chance someday."

"Really? That's great."

"Great? Heh, perhaps!"

If Mutants appeared in a universe where they did not exist, there was only one possibility: the multiverse had crossed over.

If that day truly came, the entire multiverse would descend into chaos. That would be no good thing.

But there was no need to let 2B know about such matters now, so he couldn't be bothered to explain.

As he spoke, he walked over to his newly upgraded Third-Generation Bat Armor.

Yes, his Bat Armor had already reached its third generation.

The first-generation Bat Armor had been limited by its outdated energy system, so it could only fly short distances.

Later, he obtained improved Arc Reactor technology and upgraded the power system based on the first generation.

This gave the Bat Armor long-distance flight capability, allowing it to easily exceed Mach 4 and approach the performance of a hypersonic aircraft.

Not only that, he had modularized the Bat Armor and embedded miniature anti-gravity devices into every module.

This allowed him to put on his Bat Armor anytime and anywhere, much like a Saint Seiya transforming.

And now, he had upgraded it once again.
