Starting with Fireflies, Speedrun the World

If it weren't for the appearance of these people, his fate would have been a tragic death.

He didn't care about his own death; what he worried about most was his daughter and the retainers who had served him for years.

How could Jolly, a former minister of the capital, not be grateful for such a great favor?

"That doesn't have to be the case."

Looking at the kind and excited old man in front of them, Tatsumi and the other two felt a little embarrassed. After all, he was a former minister.

Then, remembering the important matter, Tatsumi continued, "You've already seen the current situation in the Empire. Although you were a former minister, you no longer have a place to stand. The minister and Esdeath will not let you go."

"So I hope you can think this through carefully, not just for yourself, but for the sake of all the people in this world. So, will you continue on to the capital? Or will you cooperate with us...?"

The three explained Jolly's current situation, and in fact, he himself was now quite aware that he had no place in the Empire.

Otherwise, the current situation wouldn't have occurred.

The three men then briefly introduced their plans and goals, inviting him to join their ranks.

Looking at the mechanical creations around him, Jolly fell into deep thought.

It seems he has no other choice.

Chapter 48 Hidden Moon in the Grotto, Azure Dragon Cleanses the World!

"Teigu..."

Clara looked at the three Imperial Arms in front of her. They were the Imperial Arms of the Three Beast Warriors, which Tatsumi and the others had given to her not long ago.

Clara wasn't surprised that they were able to defeat the Three Orcs.

With the Light Cone and so many automatons around, it would be too embarrassing if we still couldn't defeat the Three Beasts! Although the Imperial Arms users are powerful, they're not ridiculously strong.

Not every Teigu user is as terrifying as Esdeath.

Esdeath was an accident.

So Clara wasn't surprised by this result; what was surprising was that they had actually received an achievement reward for defeating and killing the three beastmen.

This made Clara think a lot. Perhaps she could get someone else to help her accumulate points?

[(Achievement) Help Tatsumi and the others defeat the Three Beast Warriors and earn 500 points!]

[(Achievement) Saved former ministers and other civil officials, earning 1000 points.]

[(Achievement) Obtained two Imperial Arms [Belvak], Military Music Dream [Scream], and Water Dragon Possession [Black Marin], reward: 3000 points.]

"..."

In the blink of an eye, I've earned another 4500 points.

However, Clara didn't continue drawing cards this time, as she felt she wouldn't be able to draw anything, and there was nothing she urgently needed in the short term. The power supply for the Creation Engine had also been resolved.

So after thinking about it, she converted all of it into Destiny Power.

And they've all been replaced with the path of wisdom...

Clara had previously exchanged less for the power of the Wisdom Path, mainly because she thought she wouldn't need it and that Mr. Schwarzroth was sufficient. However, as the mechanical creation industry chain continued to expand, Clara discovered that there were more and more places where the power of the Wisdom Path was needed.

In particular, although many of the materials used in the creations were modeled after Belloborg's automatons, because the materials were all from this world, the quality of many of them was not as good as expected.

The materials were substandard...

Rare materials similar to Orichalcos are extremely difficult to collect.

Therefore, she wants to find a new formula for metal synthesis, which is a bit troublesome to rely on Clara and Schwarzro's current abilities, but it may not be impossible if her intellectual destiny advances further.

After exchanging all her points for Wisdom Destiny, Clara felt her brain instantly swell up.

It was as if countless cosmic formulas were flooding into her mind, like a blessing directly bestowed upon her by the Venerable One. Of course, this was far from the level of an envoy; it was merely a metaphor.

But in that instant, Clara did gain a lot of insight into cosmic data and had a greater grasp of the metal synthesis formula.

Not just in this aspect, but even...

Clara looked at the three Imperial Arms in front of her, and she even felt that she could try to replicate them.

If there are enough materials.

Of these three Imperial Arms, the two great axes [Belvak] are the most brutal and simplest, requiring almost no difficulty.

The other two abilities primarily stem from the abilities of the Super Dangerous Species...

If Clara could obtain new super dangerous species materials, she felt she should be able to create a completely new Imperial Arms.

The so-called technology for making Imperial Arms has been lost, and it is impossible for a new Imperial Arm to appear in this world. Even if there were a ready-made corpse of a Super Dangerous Beast, it would not be possible to make one.

This theory can now be directly refuted by Clara.

It can be made as long as you have the materials for the super dangerous species.

"Clara likes this one, as for the other two... let's see if any of Tatsumi or the others are a good match!"

Clara directly picked up the three Imperial Arms and possessed the Water Dragon [Black Marin], which was also Riva's exquisite ring.

With this Imperial Arm, she can transform into the Moon Drinker.

In the anime, Riva's control over water flow is exactly the same as that of the water dragon controlled by Kazuki-kun in the game; there is no difference whatsoever.

It's practically a perfect replica!

Although in the setting, the power of the Water Dragon possessing [Black Marlin] is far inferior to that of the Dragon Lord, in terms of form and power manifestation, wielding this Imperial Arm is a perfect imitation of the Moon Drinker Dragon Lord.

As for the other two Imperial Arms...

Clara completely disdains the two large axes [Belvak], and as for the military music dream [Screaming]... she doesn't really understand music and art.

She can simply explain their structure here and then give them away to others, since she doesn't really care about them anyway.

Instead of rushing to study the Imperial Arms, Clara put the Water Dragon Possessed Ring on her middle finger and found that the ring was really beautiful.

I just feel that she's not suitable for a timid girl like Clara; she'd be better suited to someone more assertive.

The girl looked at the sky and realized it was still early.

She ran out with her snow-white feet and came to the edge of a waterfall.

Then she raised her small hand adorned with an Imperial Arms. While others cannot use multiple Imperial Arms simultaneously, this limitation does not apply to Clara.

Even though the Imperial Arms didn't like her, it became obedient under the power of fate.

The so-called compatibility between wavelength and Teigu user is actually the residual consciousness of a super dangerous species. They will only cooperate if both sides are compatible and agree.

However, under the power of destiny, the remaining consciousness of this super dangerous species became very compliant and naturally no longer had any influence.

"...Phew, it's starting,"

Clara is now destined to become the Moon-Drinking Dragon Lord!

After fully accepting the power of the water dragon possessing [Black Marlin], Clara felt as if she had become the Lord of all waters.

Learning from the gestures of the Moon Drinker in the game, Clara began to control the river and waterfall in front of her.

"The divine dragon Tengyun rises!"

The next moment, the river water began to change drastically, and then a water dragon in the traditional Chinese dragon form emerged from the water and flew straight into the sky.

It's not so much similar to the game, but it's exactly the same.

It's not over yet...

"The moon is hidden in the cave sky, and the blue dragon touches the world!"

Once again mimicking the Moon Drinking ultimate move, the river appeared high in the sky, and the next second, a lifelike water dragon, tens or even hundreds of meters long, appeared in mid-air, its head locking onto the forest below.

The next moment, the Azure Dragon Cleansed the World crashed directly into the forest, turning the forest in front of it into complete ruins.

perfect!

When we arrive in the Star Iron Universe, Bian Bailu will prove to those Dragon Elders who the true Dragon Lord is.

……

imperial capital.

Inside the meeting room of the newly established special police agency, the Hunters.

After waiting for so many days, the recruitment of the Hunters has finally been officially completed. Although the number of members is not very large, everyone who can join the Hunters is a powerful individual or a user of Imperial Arms.

At this moment, a mature woman with a perfect figure is sitting in the main seat.

She has long, ice-blue hair, and her white military uniform makes her look exceptionally charming.

Her tall, perfect figure was incredibly alluring. Perhaps because her military uniform was too tight, her chest seemed about to burst out. Her delicate face was stunningly beautiful. If no one knew her identity, any man would surely be captivated.

But those who know her only see her as a monster.

And this one is the strongest in the empire, a super S-rank general on par with the great general Bud, Esdeath!

Esdeath is arguably the youngest and strongest general in the Empire. She hails from the northern border region and is the daughter of the chieftain of the Baltes tribe, a race that specializes in hunting dangerous species.

The idea of ​​the survival of the fittest is deeply ingrained in them from childhood.

Possessing unparalleled and terrifying strength, and wielding the ice imperial weapon "Demon God Manifestation: Demon Essence," she alone is equivalent to an army of millions.

However, she was very kind to her subordinates and ordinary people.

She always distributed the rewards bestowed by the emperor to her subordinates and ate with ordinary soldiers, which greatly boosted the morale of her army.

He gets along well with the shopkeepers on the street and never accepts bribes, so he has many fans in the empire.

However, she was extremely bloodthirsty towards her enemies, not only burying 40 people alive but also insulting their dignity and personality. Her methods of torture and interrogation of prisoners were also extremely terrible.

But overall, she is actually a very pure person.

In short, only the strong have dignity and the means to survive, while the weak can only be dominated, even she herself is no exception.

As long as you can defeat her, she won't have any complaints; she'll only think that she's not strong enough!

Then work twice as hard to pay it back...

"You two should already know each other, right? Then I don't need to introduce you any further."

"I don't care what you did before, but now... it's time to officially begin the purge of those assassins lurking in the shadows."
