The girl the Colossus Brain had become rolled her eyes almost imperceptibly. Even that tiny movement was delicate and restrained, but there was no doubt that having to borrow her own Queen for something like this was deeply unpleasant for her.
But it was time for the Colossus to appear once more.
At that instant.
She abruptly raised her head. The battlefield's fierce winds swept up her long hair, and the moment her fingers interlocked with Zuo Zuo's, the Colossus Heart inside Lynn began pounding like a war drum.
She leaped into the air.
Under the stunned gazes of every Mechanical Unit on that chaotic battlefield, the moment the Colossus Heart returned to its rightful place, dazzling blood-red light illuminated the entire sky.
"Queen, you've never truly fought at my side before, have you? I know you can never return to me, but you must understand this: among the Three Ascenders, our Colossus is no weaker than either of the others."
Within that blood-red light curtain, Zuo Zuo heard the voice sounding beside her ear.
At that moment.
Their fingers interlocked.
As Zuo Zuo accepted it in a daze, the Colossus's transdimensional sense suddenly lit up in their consciousnesses once again. In an instant, they sensed the locations and thoughts of every scattered fragment and subject throughout the Dark World.
Buzzz-
The blinding light brought every Mechanical Unit on the battlefield to a halt.
And when they opened their eyes again.
They saw, in shock, the phantom of an enormous Colossus towering beneath the sky. The flesh and its pathways from years past took shape little by little, and those blood-red eyes seemed to look down upon all creation. The might released in that instant spread across the entire battlefield, awe-inspiring and terrible.
"That's... the Colossus!!"
Shrill alarms blared throughout
