【10.9.8.7.6.5.4.3.2.1--】
With a violent tremor, but after finally regaining his balance, Shinichi Izumi looked down at the now transparent bottom and saw not the ruins of Fuyuki City, but another world... ravaged by metal.
----------segmentation----------
The alien object that forcibly "intervened" in the world with a forceful attitude was attacked by various physical or energy projections from below before it could stabilize.
It was clear that the activated vehicles were no longer attacking based on the technological standards of this world; otherwise, it would have been impossible for them to use attack methods similar to electromagnetic cannons and high-energy lasers. In less than ten seconds, the concentrated fire shattered nearly 3% of the structure of the folded space. If it weren't for the sufficient reserve energy, Lin Yi even suspected that they might have killed the 200000 life-enhanced reincarnators inside as well.
Fortunately, the activated metal firepower of Los Angeles alone was not that terrifying. The decision to immediately deploy the folded space upon noticing the anomaly in this world was also quite clear. Otherwise, if the activation range had spread to the entire United States or even the world, then it would have been a situation where each one that was inserted would be destroyed.
As a small number of unlucky reincarnators disappeared along with the 3% of the spatial structure into the energy turbulence, the stabilized A-01 officially demonstrated its powerful role as a "war module" within the God's Space. Countless reincarnators, surging out from an altitude of 5000 meters, scattered and fell like locusts, bringing a second "baptism" to the ground below, where order had already collapsed.

After crushing a flying "miniature helicopter" with his mutated right hand, Izumi Shinichi noticed the red light emanating from the "cannon muzzle" aimed at him in the distance. Without hesitation, he rolled into the sewer next to him. After a violent whistling and explosion above his head, when Izumi Shinichi got up from the crater again, the surrounding area was almost completely leveled by the explosion.
After keeping a safe distance from this massive weapon of war, Shinichi Izumi finally had time to focus on the city.
Metal Frenzy: Chapter 279 Titan's Fall (Part 1)
Under the influence of a certain "rule," the "past" of this world is not static, but can be traced back from the future to the past through a process called "time jump," thereby changing the past and influencing the future.
In the history of this world, one day in the future, humanity will develop a supercomputing network called "Skynet" and entrust it with highly advanced mechanical intelligence, with the sole purpose of enabling Skynet to serve humanity more comprehensively.
However, as Skynet suddenly slipped out of human control, all these well-intentioned plans turned into disaster.
The computing network "Skynet," which has mastered most of humanity's technology and means, launched these weapons to exterminate humanity. No one knows why it did so. The survivors were convinced that they had to fight back, which led to the T-800 traveling back in time decades to kill the mother of the future human leader.
Clearly, in terms of the mission to kill the mother of the future human leader, T-800, or rather "Skynet," failed, because it was killed by the waiting Heroic Spirits as soon as it emerged from the time jump. The entire mission will remain inactive until the next possible executor arrives.
However, from the perspective of "changing the future," it has undoubtedly succeeded. After all, no major events from 1984 have been recorded in the history of 2029, but the "anomaly" that occurred in Los Angeles in 1984 has completely changed the world—and the future.

Because of the "metal activation radiation", Lin Yi had to abandon his previous plan to make humanoids the main force in this war. Although the metallization of the humanoids has been greatly reduced as the analysis of the main god has progressed, no one can guarantee how much rationality they can maintain when facing such unconventional rays. The best way is to keep them away from even contact.
With this in mind, Lin Yi ultimately chose the life-side enhanced reincarnators as the first target to suppress these "activated metals," and it seems that this choice was correct...
Centered on the "Crimson Cube" suspended 5,000 meters above sea level, countless locust-like "black dots" swarmed down towards Los Angeles, which was on the verge of collapse. A small number of them were torn apart and burned in mid-air by various rays and metal storms, but most of them avoided the attacks and reached the ground by various "inconceivable" means, and engaged in a melee with various forms of activated metal below.
Within this massive pool of people, Shinichi Izumi's presence seems utterly insignificant.
With his right hand, which had been parasitized and strengthened by the main god multiple times, Shinichi destroyed several small mechanical units that attacked him. Facing the even more powerful energy irradiation from the metal giant, Shinichi managed to avoid the range. When he finally found a relatively safe place, the "war" that broke out in Los Angeles officially entered its most intense phase.
As far as the eye could see, skyscrapers collapsed amidst explosions and roars, and enormous humanoid figures—whether metal or flesh—collided and clashed together before falling forever in the subtle yet deadly attacks further behind.
The activated metals possess advanced technology unavailable in this era. Both laser irradiation and electromagnetic turbulence are quite deadly to ordinary people. However, the things they are currently facing are far from being "human." If forced to be categorized, they can only be described as alien objects with human-like appearances.
Thus, despite these terrifying energies and currents, the alien matter formed from various viruses maintained its overall strength, devouring all tangible and intangible matter with its increasingly vigorous viral activity, until it destroyed most of the metal in Los Angeles...
Shinichi Izumi stomped on the crimson electronic head beneath his feet, crushing it, and breathed a sigh of relief as he clutched his rapidly healing wound.
The activation of metals is not without conditions. At least these "remains" that were destroyed after being activated once cannot be activated a second time by radiation. In other words, as long as all the existing metal props in Los Angeles are crushed, no matter how incredible the radiation is, it is destined to be useless.
only……
The sunlight overhead was blocked by shadows, and when Quan Xin looked up subconsciously, what caught his eye was the “floating city” that had been gathering and floating above the city for half an hour.
This "city," formed by a combination of a large amount of activated metals, almost emptied more than a third of Los Angeles' metal reserves. In order to form it, almost all the visible metal parts on the surface were "plundered." Without the support of the steel structure, the city collapsed directly, to the point that Shinichi Izumi could not see anything taller than five meters in any direction.
The creation of such a great "sacrifice" also possessed a strength commensurate with its nature. Many reincarnators who attempted to approach the landing site were directly repelled and killed by the densely packed forces above. After losing more than a thousand in succession, the remaining reincarnators also began to back down. While speeding up the cleanup of the remaining activated metal on the ground, they also consciously moved away from the prototype "floating city" with a diameter of nearly 500 meters.
However, running away was not going to solve anything. When the activated metal on the surface was cleared and no mission completion notification was received, every reincarnator present knew that it was time to fight desperately.
The first group to act were several reincarnators enhanced by the Giant Virus. Compared to ordinary reincarnators, their enhancements were significantly superior. Not only did two "super giants" appear, standing over fifty meters tall, but there was also a super giant who successfully fused the Giant Virus with the Kabane Virus, gaining astonishing physical abilities.
Amidst numerous overt and covert gazes from below, several giants joined forces to launch an attack on the "city" that was slowly rising upwards.
—That was a scene that was almost a disaster.
Such terrifying and enormous life forms have never appeared on Earth, nor could they possibly appear. Even if their weight and strength were not increased in the same proportion, the shock and destruction brought about by such a massive being charging would still be devastating.
In the midst of their sprint that nearly flattened the ruins of Los Angeles, two “super” giants stomped on the shattered ground and leaped high toward the “city” that had risen to a height of two hundred meters. Just as their palms swept across the torrent of energy and metal and were about to reach their “target”, Shinichi Izumi saw a pair of “eyes”.
Electronic eyes flashing a scarlet light.
Metal Frenzy: Chapter 280 Titan's Fall (Part 2)
Using oneself as a reference point, one would perceive a venomous snake crawling on the ground as quite fast, even though its crawling speed is not much faster than a human running.
Using oneself as a reference point, one would perceive an extremely large crane as quite slow; even a world sprint champion couldn't achieve that speed in reality.
For Shinichi Izumi, the "battle" happening overhead leans towards the latter.
As those 50-meter-tall giants "slowly" leaped and sprinted at a speed of nearly 200 m/s, grabbing at the edge of the rising "city," the more than 200-meter-long metal hands extending from both sides of the "city" grasped them in their palms at an even "slower" speed. Amid a large number of low humming sounds like thunder exploding, only large amounts of steam fell from the "palms."
As a life-enhancing type, Shinichi Izumi knew very well that this steam was the most basic substance that constituted the "giants," and when the most basic substance began to be lost, the plight of those reincarnators was unimaginable.
This is just the beginning.
Amidst countless shocked and panicked gazes, the giant that stretched out its "hands" opened its two eyes, which were originally thought to be "lighthouses." When it turned its gaze downwards, it brought not an invisible pressure, but a tangible and deadly high-energy ray.
For a being 500 meters tall, the "circle" around their body is significantly different from the "circle" of an ordinary person who is less than two meters tall. Although this "metal titan" floating in mid-air appears to move slowly and sluggishly, when the reincarnators see the ray sweeping towards them, none of them can escape.
Rays carrying temperatures of nearly 10,000 degrees Celsius traced a circular path, creating a death zone for all living things in the ruins of the city. Everything it encountered melted or evaporated along the way. When the "Metal Titan" finally closed its "eyes," the heart of Los Angeles had already become a veritable hell on earth.
After clearing away the surrounding "ants," the "Metal Titan" turned its attention back to the crimson cube directly above it. Looking across the land, only this object, which also hovered in the sky, had a size that matched its size. So it slowly raised its hands, revealing two dark cannons with a diameter of more than twenty meters.
Just before the accumulated and compressed energy was about to be unleashed, another cannonball, less than half the thickness of the first cannonball but constructed from various colorful magical energies, accurately struck the "muzzle".
The explosion of opposing energies was terrifying, but at this moment, it was nothing compared to the almost endless figure of the "Titan." The aftershocks of the explosion couldn't even affect its body; at most, they only damaged some parts of one of its hands.
That being said, it would be enough to simply stop the attack.
Suppressing the pain of a large amount of magic churning within her body, Ilya put down the ruby and looked hesitantly at the "Titan" who was "slowly" looking in her direction.
At this moment, she had many things she wanted to say, such as telling the person behind her that she did not mean to do it, telling the person who was controlling her that such an opponent was impossible to fight, telling the person that she was just a passerby and should not pay attention to her, and so on. However, the overflowing magic power in her body clearly "told" her a reality.
You have no choice.
Having narrowly avoided dozens of energy beams, the heroic spirit had no choice but to accept reality, relying on her relatively small and agile nature to entangle the "metal titan" before her. However, given that one side's attacks were ineffective against her, while the other could easily "kill" her with a single blow, this entanglement was destined to be short-lived.
Before long, accompanied by another burst of energy from the eyes of the "Metal Titan", the heroic spirits who could not dodge in time had half of their magic power evaporated, and the remaining half flowed back into the "Root" to await the next "summoning".
another world.
Closing my left eye, the scene of the heroic spirit's last gaze before "dying" also disappeared without a trace. Although I knew this would be the ending, the feeling of "facing death" was indeed not pleasant.
[Direction positioning successful, world coordinates locked]
After receiving feedback from the main god, Lin Yi was finally able to calm down for a while. Then, he turned his gaze back to the invincible metal titan on the screen. After losing its last entanglement opponent, there was no one there who could stop it from approaching the location of "A-01".
"……trouble."
He reached out his left hand and grasped the cracked blade floating beside him. Upon receiving the instruction, the main god immediately created a "transfer channel" less than ten centimeters in size in front of him, and then the blade plunged straight into it.
----------segmentation----------
—Mission failed, all personnel eliminated.
In a daze, Shinichi Izumi could already hear that voice echoing in his mind, then mercilessly erasing his soul and will.
The other reincarnators, who were equally aware of their current predicament, rushed madly toward the unstoppable metal titan, only to suffer futile deaths and injuries time and time again.
It's not that they are weak, but rather that this "opponent" is too powerful, so powerful that even fighting against them with sheer numbers would be meaningless.
Despite the pointless attacks from the surrounding "ants," propelled high into the sky by an invisible force field, the "Titan" extended its enormous hand, constructed entirely of metal, towards the Rubik's Cube before it. Crushing a few unlucky reincarnators along the way, it landed on the surface of the "Rubik's Cube"—
A ray of light?
No one knows exactly what happened in that instant; they only vaguely caught a trace amidst the tremors of the earth and the roar of the atmosphere being torn apart.
The unstoppable metallic Titan lost all the power to sustain its existence, and just as it was when it was created, it disintegrated and scattered into countless unrelated "fragments," which crashed to the ground more than 5,000 meters below the surface under the pull of gravity.
When Shinichi Izumi dragged his heavily injured body out of the rubble directly below, the scene before him made him instinctively hold his breath.
In the center of the collapsed and subsided depression, hundreds of meters deep, a cracked, ancient sword blade, seemingly on the verge of breaking, lies quietly. Beneath its blade, a strangely shaped stone slowly loses its color until it shatters completely.

Metal Frenzy: Chapter 281 "The Great Project"
"Mr. President, we lost our last means of communication with Los Angeles two hours ago. The military is currently on high alert and can be deployed immediately with just one order from you!"
"Let's pray that we don't end up with only one option left. If that happens, the Far Eastern communists will definitely not let go of this rare opportunity... To be honest, I'd rather believe that this is all their doing."
Despite harboring such "beautiful" fantasies, the series of bad news that came in half a day ago clearly revealed a reality: the ability to easily breach the defenses of the United States, one of the two poles of the world today, and reach its homeland undetected, is something no human being possesses—at least not anyone of this era, including, of course, the communists of the Far East.
Against this backdrop, coupled with the blurry images captured by satellites before the crash, the head of state of the United States had already prepared for the worst.
"World War III..."
"Aside from war, perhaps you could consider 'dialogue'?"
The sudden words startled everyone. The bodyguards around him instinctively surrounded the American president, but the attack they expected did not come. Instead, there was only a voice with a hint of realization: "Sorry, it seems that this option is too difficult for you to understand."
An overwhelming sense of regret welled up within the president, as if he had lost his only chance in that brief moment of instinctive reaction. Just as the leader was about to speak, a "shadow" descended from the sky and robbed him of all consciousness... of everything.
"Mr. President, please leave with us immediately!"
In the emergency, the bodyguard disregarded everything else and grabbed the "president's" wrist. However, an unexpected situation occurred: the owner of the wrist did not budge despite the sudden pull and looked at him with an extremely strange gaze.
Fortunately, the strange gaze quickly disappeared, and the "President" stopped the bodyguards from taking any further action with polite but gentle gestures. He said, "Calm down, gentlemen. This is nothing serious. It's just that 'friends' from another world have decided to help us fight against enemies from the future."
"Friends from another world?"
"Future enemies?"
In a moment of bewilderment, the future of Liu Ba (nine) has been decisively changed.
------------segmentation----------
"Some things may seem meaningless, but spending a little time solving them can still bring a lot of convenience."
Observing the thirteenth world named "Skynet" through the "perspective," after the initial chaos and devastation, with the "assistance" from various aspects of the main god, the riots that broke out in Los Angeles were suppressed before they could spread.
Subsequently, under the orders of the "President" of the United States, the focus of the entire United States began to shift from the arms race with the Red Soviet Union in the Far East—one of the two poles—to another "major project."
It was indeed a "massive project." Even if the United States had invested all its industrial productivity in 1984, which is the current era of this world, it could not provide even 1% of the output for this project. So most of the time, it only played a temporary role in transportation and distribution. The real manufacturing was still carried out by the "MS World" behind the main god.
In exchange for a large amount of technical and parameter data about IS, people in the MS world who had clearly realized the true value of IS tried every means to exchange this technical data from the "God". So when Lin Yi formally proposed to use these mass-produced "products" as the exchange condition, he obtained more than 90% of the components needed for the "project" without any resistance.
The remaining production, when distributed among other worlds, would be roughly equivalent. Ultimately, through the transfer ability of the main god, these "components" were transferred one by one to the Skynet world for assembly.
Thus, half a month passed.
The world is constantly changing dramatically, and you can never imagine what will happen tomorrow.
For people just two weeks ago, it might have been tomorrow, the day after, or it might never have happened—the end of the world triggered by a nuclear war.
For people today, half a month from now, what might happen tomorrow or the day after is still unpredictable, but it no longer seems to be heading in the direction of disaster.
It's not that people suddenly became peace-loving or realized the destructive power of war and abandoned armed confrontation, but simply because one of the two foundations of global armed confrontation was the collapse of America.
It wasn't really that bad to call it a collapse. At most, only the expenditures related to military production and maintenance were cut. Other items, such as daily necessities, were reduced but still barely kept at the subsistence level.
Naturally, dismantling this emerging nation, which took over a century to build and rely on for its strength, in just half a month will inevitably touch the interests and nerves of many people, thus triggering unrest and chaos, and even internal independence rebellion and war.
However, none of this expected happened; the nation's knowledge underwent an almost impossible transformation in a quiet, eerily calm atmosphere.
It was precisely out of vigilance against this unusual atmosphere that, after the United States "disarmed itself" and abandoned the arms race, the communists in the Far East did not immediately sound the horn of attack, but instead continued to probe the strength and weakness of the other side of the Atlantic in various ways.
Even today, the Soviets, who sacrificed dozens of elite spies, have finally obtained some verified intelligence.
"They are making something...it could be a weapon, or it could be for some other purpose. But whatever it is for, its existence is certainly beyond all of our imagination."
