The power of a group is immense, so the best approach is to prevent them from becoming a group.
Admittedly, as one of the ultimate weapons of human civilization, nuclear weapons are unparalleled in power. However, compared to the conceptual single-person weapon IS born in World Eleven, their technological backwardness is unavoidable. Using these nuclear weapons to deal with ordinary people is naturally simple and direct, but it is somewhat inadequate against IS, which has an "absolute defensive stance." Therefore, it is impossible to sit idly by and watch these conceptual weapons gather in large numbers and then launch a unified attack—unless Lin Yi is willing to take the risk of exposing his whereabouts and take action himself.
Based on this assessment, destroying all long-distance communication methods in the world is the inevitable first step. This would prevent the other side from making contact and uniting, and then take advantage of the time of electromagnetic pulse interference to defeat and eliminate those IS groups that have gathered in large numbers one by one.
Once the effects of the electromagnetic pulse have subsided, those who have lost their biggest trump card will naturally make a more "rational" choice...
"Father, the cleanup is complete."
The sudden sound interrupted Lin Yi's thoughts. After glancing at the screen, which had turned into a molten wasteland, he asked in the same tone, "How is the amplification device performing?"
"Under normal operation and with sufficient energy, the amplification effect can reach more than 500%."
What about instruction loading?
"Diffusion command efficiency is 371%, amplification command efficiency is 308%, and tracking command efficiency is 191%."
Raising an eyebrow, he spoke as he had the main god transmit the blueprints for the "amplification device" in satellite orbit: "This thing was originally designed to maximize the damage and range of the 'Spirit Heart Cannon.' You don't need to be too demanding about its lock-on and tracking capabilities. More important than this..."
His gaze shifted from the ten-meter-long, two-meter-wide, all-metal object to the girl behind it: "How is the adaptability of the magic source access flag ② Shanlin's research on the Qi?"
After a brief pause: "...Everything is normal, Father."

Shortly after Eve left, another voice suddenly rang out.
"She's not your daughter, is she?"
The girl in the red vest tossed a short sword formed from magic up and down in her hand, her eyes filled with curiosity as she examined the various design drawings and equations on the wall. After confirming that she couldn't understand them, she gave up quite directly and turned to look this way: "And it's not human either."
"Generally speaking, shouldn't we first say 'not human' and then conclude 'not a daughter'?"
"Huh? Even at a point like this, you don't still want to call yourself 'human,' do you?"
Feeling the pulse originating from the "root" in his left eye, Lin Yi's hand paused slightly: "...Perhaps."
With a slight smirk, Ryougi Shiki, now in her Heroic Spirit form, walked up to her: "So, what do you want me to do this time?"
"A small experiment."
As he said this, he pointed to the only "finished product" among a large pile of props and equipment in the corner: "This is IS."
"I know, I just saw it a few days ago... It seems this thing can only be used by women, could it be that you also—"
"Can you see it?"
Interrupting this wicked joke, Lin Yi said in a flat tone, "'Its' deadline."
"Huh? This isn't—wait?"
Even without hearing it, her reaction alone was enough to tell the "answer." She looked at the machine, which was a replica of the latest experimental IS data from the Denoa Corporation, with a knowing look. Before Ryougi Shiki could ask any questions, she directly drained the magic power that sustained her existence, and the room returned to calm before the latter's annoyed voice could be heard.
"So that's it..."
In his left eye, which glowed with an eerie, pale blue light, a series of dark gray "death lines" were clearly reflected, and even many gray dots appeared.
The use of the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception is not without limitations, and it can only have the powerful effect of seeing the "death" of everything in a world where the Root is universal. Once the world and the rules that maintain it are changed, one must adapt and integrate again in order to use it, otherwise its power will be severely limited. This was understood from the very beginning.
Back in the first world of immortals, Lin Yi also relied on a three-year integration period to gradually adapt to using these different systems of power from the "root". However, at that time, it was only enough to deal with cultivators and monsters below the Golden Core stage. If he wanted to face a higher level of True Person, Tribulation Transcending, or even Immortal, he would still be greatly weakened, let alone destroy it.
However, it was precisely with this eye that Lin Yi "killed" two immortal swords that did not seem to belong to the cultivation world—the Demon-Suppressing Sword and the Demon Sword. To this day, the fragments of the sword blades are still stored in the subspace, waiting for later "recycling".
In this context, it's impossible to say that the fusion of the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception has reached the point where one can easily see the "death lines" or even the "death points" of these two swords. The real reason that led to this situation is entirely different—
"How well do you understand it..."
He muttered to himself as he reached out his palm toward the IS machine in front of him.
Lin Yi had once come into contact with those two swords in the world of fantasy—from Tang Xuekui, who was used as bait and then killed by him. At that time, out of a research mindset, he analyzed the structure and formation of these two immortal swords. Although he could not recreate one due to the special material, he understood its construction. It was at that time that he discovered something.
"Based on the level of understanding of its structure and composition principles, the understanding of its 'death' concept will gradually improve."
Just as Ryougi Shiki, who had only come into contact with IS, could not see its death line, while Lin Yi could, this was definitely not just because she only possessed a pair of "Mystic Eyes of Death Perception" while he possessed the entire "Root". The main reason was their different levels of understanding of IS.
From the moment he acquired the IS data, Lin Yi was involved in the entire process of transforming it from tedious documents into the actual machine before him. It can be said that, apart from the founder who developed the machine, he was the most familiar with it in the world. It was this deep-seated understanding that led to a dramatic increase in the "Mystic Eyes of Death Perception's" understanding of "death," while Ryougi Shiki, who only possessed the Mystic Eyes but had limited contact with the IS, could not see anything at all.
In other words
He subconsciously turned his gaze to his feet: "Can you kill someone just by 'understanding' them?"
Metal Frenzy: Chapter 265 World Nuclear Peace (6)
"I...I really don't know anything, please, please let me go—"
"bang"
Seeing the middle-aged man knocked unconscious in front of her, Laura's anxiety intensified. Just as she gritted her teeth and was about to take action regardless of the consequences, an unusual sound suddenly came from behind her, which alerted her.
"Who?!"
"Um... I didn't mean any harm..."
Raising her hands, the girl with twin ponytails stepped out from the corner. Upon seeing the gun in Laura's hand, she instinctively showed a fearful expression: "I didn't see anything either."
"who are you?"
Laura didn't lower her guard just because the other person was a woman. On the contrary, women who could control IS in this world were more suspicious. Based on this understanding, Laura quickly subdued the twin-tailed girl who had exclaimed in surprise and asked in a low voice, "What are you doing here?"
"Huang Lingyin, come here..."
Feeling the cold muzzle of the gun behind her, the girl named Huang Lingyin hurriedly added, "I'm just here on a trip."
five minutes later.
"I came to France just to visit the newly developed IS mobile suits of the Denoa Corporation. Due to wartime restrictions, I cannot return home. I originally wanted to go back through diplomatic channels, but I haven't been able to contact anyone at the diplomatic embassy for the past five days... Do you know what happened?"
She scanned Huang Lingyin up and down once more with a scrutinizing gaze, and after confirming that the other party posed no threat whatsoever, her tone softened slightly: "War."
"……Eh?"
"France started a war, against the whole world."
"How can it be!"
The expected reaction, and it was this reaction that convinced Laura that the girl in front of her was not a spy or anything like that who had been planted to get close to her, but there were some things she still needed to confirm.
Can you drive an IS?
"If it's just basic operation..."
"follow me."
"and many more--"
After navigating through several narrow alleys and corners through the desolate, ruined town, just as Huang Lingyin was about to speak, the white-haired girl in front of her, whose behavior had been quite unusual since they first met, suddenly stopped: "We've arrived."
"this is……"
"Third-generation mobile suit - Black Rain, this is my mobile suit."
As she said this, she pointed to another IS unit covered in black cloth, meeting Huang Lingyin's surprised gaze: "Third Generation Unit - Black Branch".
"Wait, are you telling me to pilot it? Impossible! I'm just a student, and these IS weapons don't have power limits, do they? If they hit someone, they'd die!"
"This has been known for a long time—!"
The crisp, decisive rebuke startled the girl. After skillfully entering the IS cockpit, Laura's tone was cold: "This is war, and this is a battlefield. War always results in death, whether it's you or the enemy. If you don't want to become my 'enemy' right now, get in there immediately."
Just as she was about to refuse, the gleaming gun barrel was already pointed at her. Hesitating for half a second between life and death, Huang Lingyin finally obediently got into the IS.
(It's okay, we just need to escape later!)
While trying to comfort myself, I noticed something unusual when I opened the basic system settings.
"This IS should already have an owner, right?"
"..."
Laura remained silent as she made the final settings to her IS.
"In that case, let her take control herself—"
"She's dead."
"Dead...?"
Without any explanation from Huang Lingyin, after completing the final preparations, Laura directly activated Black Rain. With a deep whistle as surging power erupted, the jet-black machine tore through the rubble of the buildings above, revealing itself to the gloomy sky.
Looking down at Huang Lingyin, who was still unable to react, Laura gave her final "command": "If you don't want to die, follow me!"

Miss Charlotte, we've discovered two mice that have broken in.
At a time when the electromagnetic pulse destroyed all existing means of communication in the world, the projection that suddenly lit up in front of her seemed quite abnormal. However, after more than a week, Charlotte had gotten used to it, and to some extent, she even found a plausible explanation in the beings called "humanoids" who were talking to her.
They do not belong to this world.
Suppressing the chaotic emotions within him, emotions he himself didn't even understand: "What do you need us to do?"
Get rid of them; they're too close to 'Griffin'.
—Griffin.
Charlotte silently recited the word with special meaning in her heart, and did not futilely refuse the almost coercive request.
Numerous facts have already proven that once I accepted this watch, I no longer had the right to refuse. Moreover, even if I refused, the entity behind the scenes would have other IS operators complete this "task." In that case, it would be better to have me, whose hands are already stained with blood, carry it out.
"I understand, I'll head over right away."
----------segmentation----------
Quite to Laura's surprise, after revealing her existence with great determination, she did not encounter any resistance from mainland France. Not only in the remote suburbs, but even in the bustling city, not a single object appeared to block her way.
"Could the murderer not be France...?"
The idea was rejected by Laura as soon as it came to mind. Even if it wasn't France that dropped the nuclear bomb, there was no reason for them to allow two unidentified IS aircraft to roam freely over their territory. In such a situation, the more unusual the phenomenon, the greater the suspicion.
Recalling the devastation her homeland had left in, Laura gritted her teeth and pointed her energy weapon at the city below—
"and many more--"
【stop! 】
A completely different yet equally meaningful voice rang out. It wasn't surprising that Huang Lingyin, who was following behind, would stop her, but the other voice that appeared was far from that.
This is French airspace. Please lay down your weapons immediately!
"...Is it you?"
【What? 】
"That's right, it must be you! Only in this way could you maintain stable communication during an electromagnetic pulse, because you knew this would happen all along—no, a nuclear bomb—"
With a furious and hateful roar, Rafra pointed her gun at the ISIS members in front of her who were trying to explain themselves, and pulled the trigger: "You're the ones who dropped it!"
Metal Frenzy: Chapter 266 World Nuclear Peace (7)
Above the bustling city, weapons made by humans chase and fight each other under human control. Various energies mix to create a magnificent and dreamlike scene, but when they fall, they become deadly sources that take people's lives.
Stop! We have no reason to fight!
I 1 (1) "Reason? It already existed the moment you destroyed my dwelling place!"
Having dodged the attack from the black IS again, Charlotte couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
Although she didn't know why the other IS on one side didn't attack, the lone black IS in front of her was something she couldn't handle alone.
Admittedly, she could stall the enemy and wait for subsequent "support," but in doing so, the information she originally wanted to transmit would be lost. After all, by the time "support" arrives, not only will there be only two IS aircraft in front of her, but even two hundred would probably be lost here.
Seeing the people below fleeing in all directions to avoid the aftermath, Charlotte made up her mind.
Can you hear me?
"You are……"
Upon suddenly receiving the communication, Huang Lingyin almost launched an attack reflexively, but fortunately, she was unfamiliar with the machine and thus avoided doing so in the chaos.
After confirming that the operator of this IS was able to communicate with another person, Charlotte breathed a sigh of relief and spoke quickly while dodging the attacks of the black rain.
[Time is running out. Please pass this information on to others as soon as possible. They are not beings of this world, but enemies from another world. Only by uniting everyone's strength can we hope to defeat them.]
"they?"
