Chapter 53 Cocolia's Awakening
Just as the immense shadow of the Creation Engine was about to engulf the entire city of Beloborg and panic reached its peak, Chen Feng gently raised his clenched hand.
Buzz!
A dazzling golden light suddenly emanated from the joints, torso, and even the enormous mechanical eyes of the creation engine!
Countless mysterious amber-colored protective runes seemed to come alive, flowing and shining on its massive steel body!
The once cold and lifeless mechanical creation was instantly imbued with a sacred and majestic aura, as if it were an ancient Titan awakened by the power of the guardian deity!
Guided by Chen Feng's will, the creation engine, gleaming with protective golden light, finally stood firmly in the wilderness, several miles away from the walls of Beloborg.
Its massive body, like the most majestic mountain, exudes a suffocating sense of oppression, yet carries a protective will.
It slowly raised a huge steel arm, not to attack, but to spread its enormous palm out, facing the city of Beloborg, as if conveying a greeting and affirmation from the protector to the city and its people.
At the same time, with the movement of the Creation Engine and the complete release of its protective power, the thick clouds that had shrouded Yalilo VI for hundreds of years seemed to have been torn open by an invisible hand, creating a huge gash.
The long-awaited, warm and dazzling golden sunlight, like a giant beam of light, precisely pierced through the clouds, falling on the tallest spire in Belloberg, on the shoulders of the Creation Engine where golden light flowed, and also through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows of the council chamber, illuminating every pale, stunned noble face.
Sunshine! Real, warm sunshine from the stars!
The council chamber was deathly silent.
All doubts, all schemes, all arrogance were crushed to dust under the towering, miraculous power of the Creation Engine and the first ray of sunlight piercing through the snow.
Chen Feng slowly lowered his hand, and the heart-palpitating power fluctuations around him quietly subsided. He seemed to have turned back into that lazy "dust-beating lad".
He tilted his head slightly, looking at the distraught, trembling nobles, a half-smile playing on his lips. His voice, though not loud, clearly penetrated the depths of everyone's soul: "Now, does anyone still question my identity?"
There was no answer. And no answer was needed.
The guardian of the order, the proof of Cripper's will walking in the world—Chen Feng's identity, at this moment, was imprinted in the hearts of every nobleman in Belloburg, and even every citizen who witnessed this scene, in the most irrefutable and awe-inspiring way.
Bronya stood by the sunlit window, the golden light casting a sacred glow upon her.
She looked out the window at the ancient guardian bathed in sunlight and gold, then turned to look at the silent nobles, and the last trace of trepidation she felt due to her youth vanished.
As Chen Feng displayed his divine power, all the discussions vanished. With Chen Feng standing behind Bronya, the nobles dared not utter another word, their pale faces filled with fear.
Faced with absolute power, everything else is meaningless; no one dares to gamble on whether their home can withstand a single blow from such a monster.
The meeting proceeded smoothly afterward. The nobles were terrified by the enormous mechanical construct outside the gate, and had no choice but to agree to whatever Bronya asked for.
As the nobles respectfully and tremblingly left the meeting hall, Bronya also let out a long sigh of relief and slumped into her chair.
"To remain calm and composed in the face of so many nobles for the first time, Ya Ya, you are indeed very suitable to be the Great Guardian." Chen Feng expressed his praise without reservation.
Bronya smiled and shook her head: "I think I didn't do well enough. Besides, most of them were afraid of you afterward. I didn't do anything."
Chen Feng said softly, "You're too modest. If it were me, I would be so nervous that I wouldn't be able to speak."
"Besides, this is your power to begin with; I'm just using it ahead of time." Chen Feng said, looking at the Creation Engine: "The Creation Engine obeys every Great Guardian who possesses the power of preservation."
Bronya was slightly taken aback and couldn't help but look at the Creation Engine. This was a gift left by the first Great Guardian to the Great Guardians, but it seemed that they, who inherited the legacy, were somewhat unworthy of their positions.
At that moment, hurried footsteps came from outside the conference hall, and then the conference hall door opened, and Silva walked in.
"Cocolia is awake," Hilva said to the two as soon as she entered. The two looked at each other in surprise.
In Cocolia's room, Bronya burst into tears of joy and hugged Cocolia, who looked somewhat pale.
"Mother, you're finally awake! I thought... I thought you—"
Cocolia looked at Bronya, who was sobbing slightly, with heartache and patted her back.
"Alright, alright, nothing's happened to me. But you, Hiluva told me you've been under a lot of pressure lately."
In response to Cocolia's words, Bronya raised her head and quickly shook her head: "I'm not tired. It's all for Beloberg. What I'm doing is nothing."
Hearing this, Cocolia sighed: "I'm so sorry, Bronya, I feel like I've done a lot of ridiculous things over the years, and Sylva too, I—"
-
Facing Cocolia's gaze, Hilva turned her head away irritably, but said sincerely, "Why are you apologizing to me? It's all because of the Star Core, not you."
Cocolia smiled slightly, and finally turned her gaze to Chen Feng, who was standing to the side.
After thinking for a moment, she glanced at Bronya, then said to Chen Feng, "Thank you for your help to Belloberg during this time, sir."
"It was nothing. You are the ones who protect and safeguard me. I'm just cleaning up Amber King's mess." Chen Feng waved his hand.
He had originally wanted to tease Cocolia about her previous state when she was bewitched by the Star Core, but seeing her like this, he decided it was best not to say anything inappropriate.
Cocolia was taken aback by this down-to-earth statement, then smiled. At that moment, Chen Feng's phone suddenly beeped.
"You guys chat, I'm going out for a bit." Chen Feng glanced at the situation and decided it wasn't best to continue the conversation there, so he walked out.
After watching Chen Feng leave, Cocolia suddenly looked at Bronya and said, "By the way, Bronya, Sylva told me something else."
At this point, Bronya looked somewhat puzzled, while Sylva suddenly burst into laughter.
"You and this Mr. Chen Feng—"
