The factory was huge, with countless machines on the assembly lines, but aside from those things, they found nothing—not even any corpses.
"Sister, we can't find the entrance to the underground base. Could it be somewhere else?" After searching for roughly half an hour, the two had turned the entire factory upside down, yet they could not find any way to enter the underground facility beneath their feet.
"That's unlikely. It should be here..."
Bronya shook her head, dismissing Seele's words.
Since ordinary methods had failed, it seemed... they would have to rely on the Herrscher's power. The next moment, Bronya's body began to rise from the ground, floating in midair. Her Herrscher form was perfectly displayed. Looking at Bronya now... she was completely different from before. At that moment, she was a god standing high above all else.
"Bronya is about to enter scan mode. Mode activated... beginning comprehensive 360-degree decoding with no blind spots!"
A completely emotionless, robotic voice came from Bronya's mouth. If anyone had looked into her pale gray eyes at that moment, they would surely have felt as though even their soul was being drawn inside.
Bronya's eyes were filled with countless zeroes and ones, like computer code.
And in Bronya's eyes, the world itself had become endless data. It was as though she had entered some kind of programming mode, giving her the sensation that she could manipulate this world however she pleased.
This continued for half a minute before Bronya suddenly seemed to lose all strength and fell straight from the air.
"Sister Bronya!"
Seeing Bronya fall, Seele's expression changed. She hurried beneath Bronya, and as Bronya descended... she recalled Nursery Rhyme, leapt into the air, and caught Bronya in her arms like a princess carry.
"Sister Bronya, are you all right?"
