Meanwhile, in the internet cafe, Liu Yuan, who was staying up all night playing games with Kisara, suddenly had a premonition.
"Miss Demon, play by yourself. I'm going out," he said abruptly.
Kisara took off her glasses and muttered in dissatisfaction, "How many times have I said, my name is Kisara, not Miss Demon. Also, what are you doing going out so late?"
"Going to find a little girl."
"??"
"Then don't come back!" Kisara casually picked up an unopened Coke and threw it at Liu Yuan's head.
Liu Yuan grabbed a bottle of iced Coke from the front desk, threw it back, and retorted, "It's nighttime here, but not necessarily elsewhere. And you demon, is your brain filled with anything other than yellow dye?"
"Come on!" Kisara caught the iced cola and looked at Liu Yuan, who had already left, muttering in dissatisfaction, "I don't want to."
At the same time, on the other side, Jibril's wings were fully unfolded, and a smile full of killing intent spread across her face. Seeing this, Schwi's eyes widened, showing a trace of emotion. She closed her eyes and then opened them, suppressing her feelings.
"[Warning], hostility detected. This unit will implement appropriate measures," Schwi stated.
"With just one you?" Jibril's question disturbed Schwi. As an Ex Machina, she knew the odds of a solo body encountering a Flugel species, especially when completely disconnected from the group network, were low.
So why is this one here?!
"I've confirmed no Ex Machina within 100 kilometers. This is a rare opportunity to face a Flugel alone. Fortunately, the Ex Machina has no concept of death, so there's no point in futile resistance..."
"I refuse!" Schwi interrupted Jibril. "This unit is an abandoned body with no value. Please let me go."
Jibril showed a momentary look of dismay before an excited, perverted grin spread across her face.
"A Ex Machina that fears death and begs for mercy? And it's a defective item that is disconnected from the main body? Fantastic odds!"
Jibril drooled, her smile growing even more perverted. As her weapon appeared in her hand, Schwi calculated the likelihood of victory.
The result was... 0.
"Alles-Losen..."
The machinery belonging to the Ex Machina appeared around Schwi's body, and her right hand transformed into a small cannon barrel.
"The probability of 0 doesn't exist. I'll bet all of human intellect to survive," Schwi declared.
"Huh?" Jibril's smile widened, and instead of attacking, she looked at Schwi suspiciously. "Oops? Don't Ex Machina parse and mimic other races?"
Schwi didn't give Jibril a chance to speak further. She launched her attack first. The cannon fire, powered by Spirits, hit Jibril, allowing Schwi to fly away.
Schwi used the surrounding terrain to dodge Jibril, but it was in vain. Using Spirits made it impossible to hide from Jibril's tracking. In terms of speed, her body wasn't even as fast as an average Flugel, let alone this weird Flugel.
Jibril appeared in front of Schwi, intercepting her with a wide smile. Just as Schwi was about to be attacked, a small shield appeared on her left arm, blocking Jibril's strike.
"What?" Jibril was surprised. Such a small shield without any Spirit had blocked her attack?
This caused Jibril to show an even more excited expression. She wanted to have fun with Schwi for a while.
Utilizing this moment, Schwi managed to fly up into the sky, standing tall and aiming her cannon at the charging Jibril.
"Nuclear strike is ready! Fire!" Schwi shouted.
"What?" Jibril sensed an extraordinary power from Schwi's cannon. This power wasn't made up of Spirit, causing Jibril to hesitate for a split second.
At that moment, Schwi's cannon, powered by a Nuclear reaction, fired. Normal machinery couldn't withstand the power of a nuclear bomb blast, but an Ex Machina could. Schwi wasn't subjected to high temperatures; instead, the Nuclear Strike was fired in a flash.
Very miniscule Spirits were used for this process, but the power that erupted was enough to make any race pay attention.
"What is this?" Jibril exclaimed as she frantically dodged the hellfire. Her senses screamed that it wasn't over yet.
Schwi didn't explain. Instead, she pointed her left hand to the sky, launching a ray of light. This was a skill she had created based on the Allied Army's super weapon, the Weather Control Device, it's attack is...
"Lightning Storm!" Schwi announced. The clouds in the sky began to build up power, a power that was like a mosquito bite to the Flugel species was not harmful but irritating.
With the nuclear bomb and lightning storm striking, Schwi used a Hyperspace Teleport.
She didn't use Spirit Gate for dodging because it required a large number of Spirits. Hyperspace Teleportation, however, used Spirit only as an energy source; the real core was her as a machine.
In an instant, Schwi teleported thousands of kilometers away, beyond the detection range of the Flugel. She could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
For the first time, she experienced both nervousness and happiness. She was only fleeing, but she had escaped from Jibril, a legendary Flugel. This memory would stay with her forever.
She also recorded the blunder of using Sprits and alerting the Flugel species. Such a mistake couldn't happen again.
She decided to wait until Jibril had left for good before returning to Riku.
"Schwi is strong!" Schwi clenched her fists and repeated what she had said to Riku one more time.
"Scrap metal? Are you having fun?"
Jibril's sudden voice caused Schwi to pause.
"!!!"
Subconsciously sidestepping, Jibril's fierce blow sent Schwi flying through three mountains. The attack damaged multiple parts of Schwi's body, and as she landed, Jibril stopped her with a kick.
"I didn't realize that machinery could have feelings. I have a bad feeling coming from you, I'm not taking anymore chances, so it's better to just leave the head this time."
Jibril no longer wanted to play. She felt a throbbing sensation as if being targeted by a beast. To avoid any further delay, she decided to make it quick and cut off Schwi's head.
Power gathered in Jibril's hands, and this time, she wouldn't miss. Just one blow, and Schwi's head would be severed.
"Looks like I came just in time. Riku, I'm not talking about you. You have to keep her well in bed to prevent her from wandering off, and oh, now you're in danger, aren't you? Hey, what are you getting excited about? Go, carry your Schwi away. I'll take care of her."
Accompanied by Liu Yuan's sudden voice, a golden light in the sky blocked Jibril's blow.
The smile on Jibril's face disappeared as she looked at the man who had suddenly appeared.
