Cocolia was stunned. Not her sister?

How did the Engine of Creation end up on your side? And who exactly is the Supreme Guardian?

Xing felt this power, " Engine of Creation, at my command!" She raised her hand and waved it towards Cocolia in sync with the Engine of Creation.

boom!

Before Cocolia react, she was sent flying by the giant mechanical arm.

As the snowflakes dispersed, a force lifted Xing to the top of the Engine of Creation.

Seeing this, everyone else was dumbfounded.

"A robot ten thousand times larger than... even larger than Svarog!" March 7th was still marveling at the enormous size of the Engine of Creation.

"Aren't we focusing on the wrong thing?" Seele, confused. "When did the Engine of Creation become [ Eternity ]?"

Feeling multiple gazes directed at her, Bronya, equally bewildered, avoided eye contact. "I... I don't know why the Engine of Creation obeys Xing. Logically speaking, Mother's words should be able to control the Engine of Creation."

"Hmph! I'm gradually coming to understand everything!"

Xing stood with her hands on her hips, feeling comfortable at a high place, able to look down on everything.

Forget about the Supreme Guardian, it has to be Galactic Baseballer!

If she remembered correctly, Ye Yan went to the front line of the restricted area on the first night to help Gepard and the Silvermane Guards clear out the Fragmentum Monsters.

They've all gone to the Silvermane Guard Restricted Zone. With Ye Yan's abilities, she doesn't believe he can't sense the Stellaron. Who knows if Ye Yan will sneak off to Everwinter Hill after helping the Silvermane Guards and modify the Engine of Creation.

Could it be that Teacher Ye Yan had foreseen this scene all along? No wonder he's from Milk Tea Star... no wonder he's the [ Eternity ] Emanator, terrifying indeed!

"Hey... did you even consider how we feel?! Let us go up and experience it too!" March 7th shouted loudly, but Star, standing high up, didn't hear him at all.

"The battle is not over yet; caution is advised."

Dan Heng warned, "The attack from the Engine of Creation just now couldn't have rendered Cocolia unable to fight."

Sure enough, just as Xing was feeling smug, an ice spear came flying at supersonic speed. Dan Heng knew something was wrong, but by then it was too late to throw out his Cloud-Piercer to block it.

Just when everyone thought the ice spear was about to pierce Xing's body...

clang!

The ice spear shattered with a crack, and only then did everyone realize that there was a faint, dark shield surrounding Xing.

"Haha, heaven hasn't forsaken me!" Xing said as he searched for Cocolia's figure.

"We failed to kill him with a single blow..."

Cocolia's cold voice rang out; she had appeared behind the group without them noticing.

"Huh! You have the ability to teleport too?" March 7th was startled.

Looking at the silly, smiling mask on her right arm that emitted a faint red glow, Dan Heng vaguely sensed something.

How did the Mask of the Masked Fools end up on Cocolia?

Could it have been Sampo who did it?

Bang!

In the blink of an eye, Cocolia was in front of Hoshino and kicked her down.

Xing remained completely calm, even performing a perfect 720-degree spin in mid-air for a classic superhero-style landing.

"Ouch... it hurts!" She clutched her reddened knee, having overdone it a bit.

"Ouch~ That hurts so much! Why isn't the [ Eternity ] blessing working now?" Xing complained in pain, and the others, who were still in the dark, suddenly realized what was going on.

"So that's how it is! It's a blessing from Teacher Ye Yan!"

March 7th felt relieved. He had been worried about how to fight Cocolia she had a shield, but now it was fair; they had defensive skills too!

"No... does that mean neither of us can do anything to the other?"

Bronya realized the key issue: judging from their performance in the battle just now, Cocolia's protective aura was definitely no weaker than theirs.

"That makes sense. Now we'll see... which side can hold out longer."

"We can't be too absolute. On the bright side, we won't be fatally injured." Xing pointed to herself, completely unharmed; she was the best proof of that.

"What's the use of thinking so much? Trust Ye Yan! Let's go!" Seele pulled out her scythe and headed straight for Cocolia without saying a word.

"It's better to play it safe." With that said, Dan Heng adjusted the multiplier of the Cloud-Piercer Spear. Now, Cocolia possessed both the power of [ Elation ] and the blessing of [ Stellaron ].

It might be a bit difficult to deal with. Ye Yan mentioned that the improved Cloud-Piercer Spear also has a [One-Hit Kill] mode, but I think I probably won't need it.

"Even without an engine, its power... can still crush you!"

Cocolia shot Seele away as she charged forward, and resonated with the Stellaron. As the Stellaron entered her body, ice crystals gradually enveloped her. Her human form disappeared, replaced by the Destroyer of Hopeless Winds— the Mother of Deception.

This entire scene was witnessed by Fulisina, who was not far away.

"Listen... this power is surging... it's singing..."

"The promise the Stellaron gave me is the only hope for this world..."

"Seven hundred years ago, it drove out the Antimatter Legion! Today, it will also erase your existence!"

A flash of brilliant golden light appeared, and the surrounding Fragmentum multiplied at an extremely rapid pace, with countless Fragmentum Monsters emerging in droves.

"Waaah... You can't take a joke, huh? Why are you calling for reinforcements!"

"Tch." Dan Heng gritted his teeth, just about to activate the so-called [one-hit kill] mode, when another loud bang rang out, and white light flashed before his eyes.

All Fragmentum Monsters, including Fragmentum erosion... were annihilated in a mere second.

"A guardian consumed by Stellaron. If you anger a [ Lord Ravager ], his wrath will engulf the galaxy..."

"Why don't you guess what the consequences would be if you angered an [ Eternity ] Emanator?"

As Cocolia watched in surprise, the Stellaron within her body grew increasingly restless, and then lost its luster.

"I said, three moves are enough." Fulisina returned to Ye Yan's side. "This is one move."

"How is this possible...? The power of the Stellaron has been suppressed?"

Don't get distracted!

Xing once again controlled the Engine of Creation. The reason she remained silent was that she was secretly gathering power, waiting for Cocolia to reveal a weakness.

Bang!

A crack appeared in the grinning mask, Cocolia was blasted away again.

"Did it work?" March 7th poked his head out.

"Hmm... it seems not." As someone who also has a Stellaron within their body, Xing can naturally sense Cocolia's vital signs.

Somewhere in the universe, Ye Yan, in the form of an hourglass, and Aha are watching a show through a virtual screen.

"I'm so angry Aha! You actually hid something behind Aha's back! No, two things!" Masked Man was furious.

"You know me well; I enjoy modifying little toys," Ye Yan replied truthfully. "Besides, it was you who let your guard down, causing the barrier to weaken slightly, giving that child an opportunity to attack."

Upon seeing Ye Yan find Him, Aha naturally relaxed his guard on the protective shield and chatted with Ye Yan to distract himself, causing the shield level to drop to the level of Emanator.

"Don't worry, she'll only use three moves at most."

"Sigh~ Aha else can I say..." The mask was turned upside down, and suddenly a good idea came to mind:

"This planet is under attack by the Antimatter Legion, and [ Preservation ] is ignoring it... Wouldn't that be considered dirt on Qlipoth? If we bring this dirt to the company, we can definitely bring this planet back to life."

"You're so smart, it's a shame you're not in the [ Genius Society ] as number 85."

"I have a feeling you're lying to Aha, but Aha has no proof."
