Starting with Fireflies, Speedrun the World

Then he completely lost consciousness...

"sorry."

After successfully beheading Zank, Hill instinctively apologized to him. Regardless of who the enemy was, she always did this after killing someone—it was a habitual reaction.

At this moment, the Automaton War Dog received the command, walked up to Zank's head, picked up the Imperial Arm from his head, and returned to Clara's side.

The target was defeated, and the Imperial Arm was successfully retrieved.

However, looking at the bloody Imperial Arms in the war hound's mouth, Clara couldn't bring herself to pick it up. She decided to wait until she got back, clean it, and then study it.

Now that the operation is over, it's time to go back.

"Sister Hill, let's go back."

Clara glanced at Hill, who was still looking down and seemingly lost in thought, and offered a reminder.

"okay."

"It's over. I can finally go back to sleep."

Hill snapped out of his daze upon hearing this, rubbed his eyes, and realized it was quite late.

Just as Clara was preparing to put all the extra automatons into hibernation mode, put them into the system space, and then return together, an unexpected incident occurred.

"Wait, stop..."

"You all stop!"

"Wang Wang Wang!!"

Just then, a girl's voice rang out, accompanied by the sound of a dog barking.

Clara and Hill stopped in their tracks upon hearing the voice and instinctively looked in the direction it came from. They then saw a girl in a school uniform with a high ponytail leading a strange little dog towards them.

Looking at the scene before her, especially the combination of a person and a dog, Clara felt a sense of familiarity.

The girl wore a bright silver and black-and-white armor uniform, seemingly a type of police uniform. She had a delicate, pretty face, a playful high ponytail, and a very unfriendly mutated white dog.

A name popped into Clara's mind.

Seryu Ubiquitas

He belongs to the Imperial Capital Garrison and is the apprentice of the garrison captain, "Oni no Oka".

A very cute-looking rebel named Night Raid who idolizes his own so-called "justice" and considers himself to be one. He harbors extreme hatred for "evil" because his parents and master were killed, but his heart is actually twisted.

He possesses the biological Teigu "Kibi: Hundred-Handed Giant".

More importantly, in the original story, Hill was killed by her, and Chelsea's body was eaten by her dog after her death.

That is, the little white dog she was walking.

Although it looks small in normal times, it is actually an extremely terrifying Imperial Arm.

"Tell me, who are you? What happened here?"

Seryu ran over with her white dog, Little Bee, her gaze falling on the decapitated corpse of Zank, then noticing the mechanical creatures around Clara. She immediately began to question him seriously.

Some time ago, her most respected master, Oka, was killed at night. Later, she learned that it was a night attack and she took this matter very seriously.

The recent beheading of Zank has caused quite a stir again.

From a young age, she was taught to be the embodiment of justice, and naturally, she couldn't allow such things to continue. Therefore, for the past few nights, she had been searching for Zank and the assassins of the Night Raid.

But found nothing.

Today was supposed to be the same; she was all set to go home, but unexpectedly, she actually discovered something.

She sized up the two girls in front of her; both the Teigu in Hill's hand and the robot beside Clara indicated that they were not ordinary people.

"Huh? What's going on here?"

Hill didn't know how to answer Seryu's question, completely unprepared for the appearance of the security forces at this moment.

Clara was also quite helpless, as it just so happened that this happened at this time.

"That...the person on the ground is Zank the decapitated. Zank had a big battle with someone earlier..."

Seeing Hill's reaction, Clara knew she couldn't rely on her, and could only offer a forced explanation.

"Zank the decapitator? He's the criminal who's been killing people at night lately?!"

I never expected him to die.

Unfortunately, it wasn't her turn to deliver the righteous punishment. Seryu was somewhat disappointed; she would have preferred to bring such a criminal to justice herself rather than be killed by someone else.

"Wait, compared to this, who are you people? How did you happen to appear here..."

Seryu realized what was happening and stared suspiciously at the two of them; they were clearly not ordinary people either. Little Bi beside her was also barking incessantly at Hill, as if it had smelled something.

"us……"

Clara and Hill were at a loss for words.

"In that case, you'd better cooperate with me and go to the garrison for investigation. Don't worry, if you're innocent, you'll be released soon after the investigation is complete..."

Seeing that the two couldn't answer, Seryu became even more suspicious. She stopped thinking about it and asked them to cooperate with her to go to the police station for investigation.

"impossible."

Hill and her group naturally couldn't accept her invitation.

Is it a place that ordinary people can go to? Especially since Hill and her group are wanted members of Night Raid.

"You can't explain your background, and you don't even dare to be investigated. You wouldn't happen to be assassins from Night Raid, would you?"

"Put down your weapons now, immediately!"

This answer made Seryu's gaze turn serious. She immediately drew her gun and locked it onto Hill. She now strongly suspected that they were involved in the night raid.

"Walk."

There's no need to get entangled with them at this point; they weren't the target anyway.

Hill immediately covered Clara's escape, since the mission was already complete.

"Stop! I knew it!"

"Criminals who committed the night raid, you must be punished by justice today."

Seeing the two trying to escape, Seryu immediately assumed they were guilty and were definitely assassins from the night raid. Regardless of whether they had killed Zank, she drew her gun and fired at Hill.

Such an attack naturally had no effect on Hill; she simply grabbed her Imperial Arm and easily blocked it.

After several shots were blocked, Seryu gave up on using her pistol and chased after them with her dog.

"Little Bi, get him! We can't let evil escape!"

Realizing she was falling behind, Seryu panicked and quickly ordered the little guy beside her to start running, while simultaneously loosening the rope.

"Woof!!"

Upon receiving the command, the originally cute little dog quickly grew to enormous size, transforming in no time into a gigantic, vicious dog.

At the same time, its speed and power continued to expand, catching up with Hill and Clara at an extremely fast pace.

Looking at the vicious dog in front of her, Hill knew there was no way to escape. Without hesitation, she stopped and let Clara go first while she held it off alone.

After saying that, Hill picked up the Imperial Arm in her hand and took the initiative to meet him.

With a flash of white light, Hill used her Imperial Arm to slice through the small creature in front of her in the blink of an eye, the cut incredibly smooth.

No longer the kind of opponent Zank who could foresee the future, her terrifying combat strength was revealed.

Hill had just cut open the behemoth in front of him and hadn't even had a chance to catch his breath when Little Bee's body began to heal rapidly, while at the same time becoming even more irritable.

It opened its gaping maw and bit down on Hill.

……

P.S.: This volume's draft is finally finished, with about 20 chapters of 4 words left. I was planning to write about the robin and the brother-in-law in the new volume, but seeing Yun Li makes me a bit fickle, so I'd like to write about Yun Li instead.

Chapter 43 Please, Mr. Schwarz

Looking at the vicious dog with its gaping maw in front of him, even with its saliva dripping onto him, Hill did not panic; instead, he remained remarkably calm.

I dodged it the instant it bit down.

However, not giving up after missing a bite, Little Bee continued to pester Hill, tearing and biting at him relentlessly.

With its bite force, it will surely be eaten in one bite if it gets bitten.

While relentlessly battling the vicious hound's bites, Hill didn't forget to seize any opportunity to counterattack. Such a massive creature was naturally easy for her Imperial Arms to slice through.

Although Little Bee's defensive capabilities are astonishing, he is as easy as tofu in front of Sheele's Imperial Arm, which can cut through anything.

However, no matter how much it cuts into the giant, vicious dog in front of it, it can always heal itself quickly.

This is what makes the Bio-Imperial Armaments unique; they can regenerate continuously if their core is not destroyed.

Although Sheele is very strong, she is still human and cannot compare with Kobe, who is an Imperial Arms, in any aspect. After a short while, Sheele still showed a weakness due to exhaustion.

Little Bi seized the opportunity and took a bite.

But at that moment, a huge iron giant appeared above it and slammed down viciously on the behemoth.

It is the automaton "Grizzly".

The grizzly bear was covered in heavy mechanical armor, so the force of the impact was considerable. Even the massive biological imperial weapon, Beast Transformation: Hundred-Armed Giant, could not withstand such a blow.

The entire enormous body was smashed into a pile of mangled flesh.

However, as an Imperial Arm, it couldn't be damaged so easily, and its body began to recover rapidly again.

"Sister Hill, are you alright?"

At that moment, Clara sat on the automaton beetle and came to Hill's side, pulling her up.

"Clara? I'm fine."

Hill looked at the girl in front of him; Clara hadn't left at all.
