Crossover Anime: Starting by fusing with an old sword and summoning Morgan

An abandoned passage leading from Panyan Town to the mechanical settlement.

It is perpetually filled with a pungent smell of sulfur and engine oil.

On the rock walls on both sides, exposed veins of mineral deposits emitted a dim, orange-yellow glow, barely illuminating the rugged path strewn with metal debris and industrial waste.

"Hey, I'm talking."

Seele walked at the front, carrying a huge purple scythe. Every now and then, she would glance back at the man in black, who stood with his hands in his pockets as if he were strolling in his own backyard.

Finally unable to contain his suspicion, he lowered his voice and asked, "You just said to Nata that you were going to go and beat Schwarz to 'reboot'... were you serious?"

"That tin can isn't some junkyard robot you can just dismantle on the street! It's surrounded by hundreds, even thousands, of mechanical soldiers. Its armor is so tough that even my scythe would have a hard time cutting it in one go!"

"Sister Seele is right!"

Sambo, who was trailing behind and trying to keep a low profile, immediately poked his head out and frantically chimed in, "Uncle Luo Chen! That's Boss Schwarz! He's notoriously stubborn in the lower district! His 'preservation' calculation logic is like a rock in a latrine—stinky and hard! If we just swagger past like this, what if we get surrounded by those self-destructing robots…"

"Shut up, Sambo."

Luo Chen didn't even turn around, calmly uttering four words.

Click.

Sambo felt the air around him suddenly become as heavy as solid. His throat felt like it was being squeezed tightly by an invisible hand.

He swallowed the rest of his words instantly. He covered his mouth with both hands and nodded vigorously, as obedient as a primary school student being punished by the teacher.

Luo Chen withdrew the slight amount of gravity that had leaked out and looked at the steel gate in front of him.

"Seele, do you know what method humans most like to use to fix a computer that has crashed?"

"Huh? Repairing computers?"

Having grown up in the lower strata, Seele was clearly unfamiliar with the technological jargon of the previous era. She frowned: "Take it apart and check the wiring? Or find a technician?"

"Do not."

Xing, walking beside Luo Chen, suddenly raised the baseball bat in his hand. His eyes gleamed with a kind of clear, foolish "fanaticism": "Boss! I know! It's the 'physical striking method'! Just slap the computer case twice, and it'll usually be back to normal! If it doesn't work, then you didn't hit it hard enough!"

"Correct answer."

Luo Chen ruffled Xing's messy gray hair with satisfaction, a wicked smile playing on his lips.

"That machine called Schwarz has fallen into a vicious cycle due to its long-term isolation. It believes that keeping humanity underground is the greatest protection. This kind of rigid program is very difficult to rewrite from the outside, even if you find the best hackers in the entire universe."

"So the simplest and most effective way—"

"It's like giving him a deep 'physical format'."

"Physical formatting..."

Dan Heng walked behind, listening to the dangerous remarks made by the "boss and his little brother," and couldn't help but press his temples.

As he looked at Luo Chen's tall and straight back, the deep-seated fear in his heart grew even stronger.

Although the method was absurd, he had no doubt that this man truly possessed the terrifying power to forcefully "reset" Schwarz to factory settings.

Just then.

The passage ahead suddenly opened up.

A massive underground camp, constructed from countless abandoned shipping containers, steel pipes, and giant gears, suddenly appeared before our eyes.

Mechanical settlement.

"Warning. Unauthorized life form detected approaching."

"Warning. Defense matrix activated."

A soulless, electronically synthesized voice began to play.

On the high steel wall, dozens of scarlet searchlights instantly lit up, locking onto Luo Chen and his group.

Followed by.

The heavy rolling sound of tracks and the friction sound of mechanical joints.

Dozens of massive [Automatic Mech Grizzly] and [Automatic Mech Tooth Wolf] units surged out of the camp's various exits like a tide.

The road ahead is completely blocked.

"Tsk, trouble's brewing."

Seele gripped her scythe tightly, a fighting spirit igniting in her violet eyes. She instantly entered a quantum state where reality and illusion intertwined: "These guys have thick shells, don't try to fight them head-on, I'll sever their power nodes..."

Before he could finish speaking...

"star."

Luo Chen suddenly stopped. His hands were still in his trench coat pockets, but he turned his head slightly to look at the gray-haired girl beside him who was eager to try.

"Didn't you just say that you're best at 'physical tapping'?"

"Go ahead, I'll give you a chance to prove yourself. Knock on this pile of junk doors."

"Huh? Me?!"

Xing was stunned for a moment.

She's usually quite bold. But when faced with dozens of heavily armed mechs, each the size of a tank, her baseball bat was definitely not enough.

"Boss, are you training me or murdering me?" Xing swallowed hard.

"With me here, you won't die."

Luo Chen's lips curled into a confident smile.

He raised his right hand, but didn't unleash any devastating energy blast. He simply tapped his fingertip lightly on Xing's baseball bat.

Om-! ! !

An extremely pure, domineering, crimson-gold magical power, containing the ultimate quality of the [Third Star Particle Body], flowed from the fingertips like a raging dragon and instantly injected into the staff!

The originally dull gray metal rod suddenly shone with a dazzling, high-dimensional light. The surrounding space even groaned under the immense weight of the rod.

"What...what is this feeling...?"

Xing's hands, gripping the baseball bat, suddenly sank.

She felt as if she was no longer holding a stick—but a whole meteorite compressed to its limit!

That surging sense of power, as if it could shatter the entire planet with a single blow, made the blood of this Galaxy Baseball Man boil instantly!

"Go ahead. Hit a home run and show me." Luo Chen raised his chin.

"Alright, boss! Watch this—"

"【Galaxy Grand Slam - Enhanced Version】!!!!!!!"

Xing let out a battle roar of extreme excitement. He transformed into a golden meteor and charged towards the group of automatons!

"High-energy threat detected... Interception initiated..."

The lead Grizzly mech raised its massive mechanical arm in an attempt to stop the charge.

boom--------!!!!!

The moment the baseball bat makes contact with the robotic arm.

There was no stalemate.

No sparks.

There is only one kind of pure, extreme physical pulverization!

The Grizzly mech, weighing several tons, didn't even last a second. Its seemingly indestructible frontal armor shattered like paper!

With its immense kinetic energy undiminished, it carried the wreckage of the mecha backward, plunging the ground like a bowling ball!

Bang bang bang bang bang-!

More than a dozen Wolftooth mechs along the way were instantly smashed into flying scrap metal the moment they came into contact with the shockwave.

A charred passage, ten meters wide and half a meter deep, was forcibly carved out in front of the main gate of the mechanical settlement by this single blow.

one strike.

It wiped out half of the mech squadron in an instant.

"..."

Seele, who was about to step forward to help, froze in place, almost dropping her scythe.

March 7th and Danheng both looked like they'd seen a ghost.

"Star...when did you become so violent?" March 7th stammered.

"It wasn't me! The boss's buff was just too strong!"

Xing stood in the middle of the ruins, looking at the baseball bat in his hand that was still emitting golden light, and trembled with excitement.

She turned her head, and the look in her eyes when she looked at Luo Chen was no longer one of admiration.

It was the kind of fanaticism that made you want to immediately acknowledge him as your biological father.

"Boss! You're my god!"

"Well done."

Luo Chen walked unhurriedly through the cleared passage, stepping over the mechanical wreckage scattered on the ground.

Through the smoke and fire ahead, his crimson-gold vertical pupils locked onto the massive steel fortress deep within the mechanical settlement.

"The appetizer is finished."

"Now, it's time to go and prepare the main course of this meal."

As everyone prepared to continue deeper into the area...

"Please...please wait a moment!"

A very young, clear voice, yet filled with anxiety and fear, came from the shadows ahead.

The sound of light, quick footsteps.

A white-haired little girl, barefoot and wearing only a red coat, ran out from behind a wrecked mech.

She walked barefoot on the cold metal floor.

Those ruby-like eyes were filled with tears of fear.

But she still spread her arms wide, standing firmly in front of Luo Chen and the others.

Clara.

A homeless girl raised by machines.

In this cold, steel settlement, there is only one thing that warms the heart.

"Clara?!"

Seele's expression changed instantly when she saw the girl. As a member of [Earthfire], she naturally recognized this kind child who always tried to find peace between humans and machines.

Why are you here? Get out of the way! It's dangerous here!

"I won't allow it!"

Clara bit her lip. Her body trembled uncontrollably under Luo Chen's subtle but palpable pressure. Yet, she stubbornly stood there.

Mr. Schwarz said... outsiders would bring 'variables' and disrupt the survival of the lower districts...

"But... Clara doesn't want to see anyone get hurt! She doesn't want to see the robots destroyed!"

She raised her head, her pure and innocent eyes looking directly at Luo Chen. Her voice was pleading, trembling with tears:

"Big brother...you guys are so strong...could you please not hurt Mr. Schwarz?"

"He was just... he was just protecting everyone in his own way..."

"Protect everyone?"

Luo Chen stopped and looked down at the barefoot girl.

In normal times, if he encountered anyone blocking his way on the battlefield, whether a god or a knight, he would crush them without hesitation with absolute violence.

But faced with this pure and innocent little girl—

A rare hint of gentleness flashed in Luo Chen's cold, vertical pupils.

He thought of Illya and Sakura, far away in Fuyuki City. He thought of that small figure, also filled with despair, yearning to protect others.

The suffocating gravity field surrounding Luo Chen dissipated instantly, like a gentle spring breeze.

He slowly crouched down, his gaze level with Clara's.

"Big, big brother?" Clara was a little flustered.

Luo Chen remained silent.

He simply reached out and gently patted Clara's soft white hair. He then channeled a wisp of warm crimson dragon magic into her body, dispelling the chill from her bare feet on the cold floor.

"You are a brave and good girl, Clara."

Luo Chen's voice was deep and gentle, carrying a wonderful power to soothe people's hearts.

"I'm not here to kill anyone, nor am I here to cause destruction."

"I'm just here to help your 'Mr. Schwarzlo' fix his rusty brain."

"Repair...brain?" Clara was stunned.

"That's right."

Luo Chen stood up and walked past Clara. His gaze was fixed on the slowly opening steel fortress gate in front of him.

"When a machine gets stuck in an infinite loop due to overcomputation and stops listening to human voices, it has already lost its meaning of 'preservation'."

"You can't change him because you're too gentle."

"But I'm different."

Luo Chen's lips curled into a wild and arrogant smile.

"I will use my fists to forcefully pry open his logic processing library. I'll make him understand—"

"The future of this planet cannot be achieved by locking people in basements."

"—Variable confirmed. Threat level: Exceeds threshold. Unable to resolve."

"—Judgment: Possesses a devastating threat to the survival of the lower-level area. Elimination mode activated."

Accompanied by extremely heavy, metallic footsteps that seemed to crush the earth with every step.

A mechanical life form, over three meters tall, draped in a black coat, and resembling a mobile fortress, emerged from the shadows of the fortress.

Its single-lens monitor, emitting a red glow, was locked onto Luo Chen.

Absolute Dominator of Mechanical Settlements —

Schwarzlo.

"Mr. Schwarz!" Clara shouted anxiously as she turned around.

"Step back, Clara. This is the center of variables; your chances of survival are plummeting."

Schwarzkopf's monotonous, mechanical voice echoed throughout the square.

It ignored everyone else. The giant mechanical hand was aimed directly at Luo Chen.

"—Annihilation Beam, charging."

"—Calculation results: Only by completely erasing it at the physical level can its continued stability be ensured."

Erasure me?

Facing the mechanical cannon muzzle that was frantically gathering imaginary energy, Luo Chen did not dodge.

Instead, he let out a cold laugh filled with extreme contempt.

With his hands in his trench coat pockets, he walked step by step toward the enormous mecha that resembled a god.

Every step taken.

The [Third Star Particle Body] within his body emitted a terrifying roar, like a star collapsing.

At this moment, the gravity of the entire underground space completely spiraled out of control.

"Your laughable computing power can't even analyze a single hair on my head."

Luo Chen stopped less than five meters in front of Schwarz.

Slowly raise your right hand.

Clench your five fingers into a fist.

"Today, I'll give this pile of junk a free system upgrade course."

The course is called—

"【Dimensional Reduction Attack】."
