Chapter 46: This protagonist is a bit weak!

Cocolia in the video screen, after borrowing the power given by the Stellaron

Has completely turned into something that is not human...

It seems to be the product of some ideal being completely distorted.

Completely abandoned her human form.

Although it looks terrifying, it is indeed full of power.

"Mother actually hid such terrifying power in her body!"

"Is this the power bestowed upon Mother by the Stellaron?"

Bronya looked at Cocolia's current appearance, her eyes full of heartache.

From the conversation between the two in the video just now...

Bronya could understand one thing, and that is that Cocolia would become like this.

It was all something that happened later...

The Cocolia who adopted her back then was not such a person.

But a true Supreme Guardian!

Everything she believes in now, everything she insists on, justice and preservation...

Were all taught to her by Cocolia back then...

But later, Cocolia, as the Supreme Guardian, in a future without hope.

Accepted the bewitchment of the Stellaron and threw herself into the embrace of the Stellaron...

Deviated from the path of Preservation...

However, can this really be blamed on Cocolia?

As the successor to the Supreme Guardian, Bronya knows best that for over seven hundred years...

Every Supreme Guardian has been exhausted, using all their strength to change everything.

But in the end, nothing changed.

"So that's how it is..."

"The Stellaron hid the fact that it was the culprit, and then gave the power to Mother."

"After Mother felt the powerful power bestowed by the Stellaron, in the bewitchment of the Stellaron..."

"Gradually lost herself..."

Compared to the Path of Preservation, which cannot be seen and it is not clear when everything can be changed...

The power given by the Stellaron is real.

Not to mention Cocolia, others might not necessarily be able to continue to persist.

The invisible future and the tangible power...

If this choice were placed in front of anyone, many people would choose the latter without hesitation...

At this moment, Bronya hasn't been to the Underworld yet...

Hasn't experienced those stories yet...

So such a choice, even if placed in front of Bronya.

Bronya felt that she couldn't guarantee that she would definitely be able to continue to choose the path of Preservation...

"Mother..."

Bronya could understand Cocolia's thoughts when she accepted that powerful power...

It must have been for the sake of giving Belobog a more beautiful future.

But the method was wrong in the end...

It was wrong from the beginning...

Because the culprit who caused all this is not Preservation!

But the Stellaron, which has always been bewitching every generation of Supreme Guardians!

"I must save Mother!"

"Must let Mother know that the voice bewitching her is the wrong one..."

"Only by sealing the Stellaron together with everyone on the Astral Express!"

"Only in this way can Belobog be saved..."

In Bronya's heart, she silently made a decision that could change the future!!!

On the Astral Express...

March 7th looked at the transformed Cocolia and immediately said excitedly: "Stelle, you should also transform!"

"And beat this guy who manipulates the big robot to smash us hard..."

Stelle looked at March 7th and shrugged: "Do you think I can?"

March 7th looked at Stelle curiously: "That doesn't make sense..."

"You are a Stellaron that gained sentience, Cocolia just got the power of the Stellaron."

"According to reason, you should be more advanced, right?"

"And have you forgotten? At that time, you exploded with power and directly blew up the Doomsday Beast!!!"

Stelle nodded: "Hmm~~~"

"What you said makes sense, next time I'll try to activate the power of the Stellaron!"

"Stellaron! Activate!!!"

Dan Heng looked at the two treasure-like people and shook his head helplessly: "I think the Stellaron inside Stelle is just a power that drives Stelle to move."

"Other than that, unless it's a rampage after being activated."

"Otherwise, it shouldn't be possible to be used as Stelle's power..."

This point was also confirmed by Welt: "The Stellaron in your body is actually still sleeping..."

"It can only provide some basic power to you, your true source of power is still the Path."

Stelle immediately used a more vivid way to make a metaphor.

"It's a No. 5 battery, I'm just a robot with a battery installed."

"You could say that..."

Himeko nodded, agreeing with Stelle's assessment.

Stelle shook her head in deep disappointment and looked at the video screen: "Then I suppose I can't beat her..."

March 7th looked at Stelle: "You're giving up way too fast."

The others had noticed this as well.

"Cocolia, having used the power of the Stellaron, is on a completely different level of strength than Stelle is right now."

"Going by the timeline, Stelle has only just stepped onto the Path of Destruction not long ago, and she wouldn't have much Path power yet..."

Himeko shook her head helplessly: "I had originally thought that since we had a newcomer, I'd let you all complete a Trailblaze mission independently..."

"It seems we still underestimated the danger level of this planet."

"The Stellaron's erosion of Jarilo-VI has exceeded our imagination..."

Welt watched the video screen: "Let's wait and see a bit longer..."

"Besides, as the Captain said, the Aeon's Gaze hasn't arrived yet..."

Himeko was startled: "Welt, what do you mean?"

"Hmm, perhaps Stelle will step onto a brand-new Path next."

"The power of two Paths, while not usable simultaneously, still allows for double the Imaginary energy conversion."

"Perhaps this is the key to breaking the deadlock..."

In the video screen...

Cocolia, having entered a brand-new state, even had a voice that sounded obsessed...

"Listen..."

"This power is surging... it is singing..."

"The promise given to me by the Stellaron is the only hope for this world..."

Cocolia, lost in this power, no longer had any room for communication...

"Seven hundred years ago!"

"It drove away the Antimatter Legion!!!"

"Today, it will also erase your existence along with them..."

Stelle also understood one thing, and that was that from here on out!

There was no way around fighting...

The baseball bat in her hand appeared once more, and she swung it toward Cocolia.

Cocolia moved her hand slightly.

Countless blocks of ice began to smash toward Stelle, who swung the baseball bat in her hand.

She smashed all those ice blocks to pieces...

At the same time, she kept closing the distance with Cocolia; as long as she was close enough, she could land a critical hit on Cocolia...

Even if she couldn't defeat her, causing her injury would certainly be no problem.

Yet, facing the charging Stelle, Cocolia merely unleashed a storm that forced Stelle, who was in mid-air, back to the edge of the platform...

"Humans..."

"...are always weak and foolish, always overestimating their own abilities..."

"Let me bestow despair upon you!!!"

Cocolia raised her hand toward Stelle!

Suddenly, in the split second before anyone could react...

The ice spear that Cocolia had previously used to summon the Automaton Grizzly suddenly shot out...

It struck Stelle directly in the chest!

At this moment, Stelle was standing at the edge of the platform; the powerful force made her grunt, and she fell right off the platform!

This turn of events left the viewers completely stunned...

Was it over just like that?

【March 7th: Stelle!!!】

【Welt: She is even stronger than we imagined...】

【Elysia: That really is quite a cruel and unavoidable move...】

【Kevin: The speed is too fast!】

【Li Li Sushang: I didn't even see what happened before Stelle went down...】

【Stelle: We're both Stellaron vessels, so why does the gap seem so big...】

【Silver Wolf: Your body isn't that of an ordinary person; this kind of damage that would kill a normal person won't do anything to you.】

【Kafka: And the good show... has only just begun...】

【Su: Don't you all find this scene familiar?】

【Aponia: It's just like when facing the Doomsday Beast...】

【Otto: Indeed... it seems we will soon see the next Aeon.】

【Durandal: The Aeon of Preservation, Qlipoth?】

【Rita: It seems that could only be this Aeon...】

In the livestream room...

Bronya was also startled by this sudden turn of events.

"Stelle lost just like that?"

"No, Captain..."

"Why was Stelle defeated so quickly?"

Bai Feng shrugged: "There is no 'why'; if you can't beat them, you can't beat them."

"Wasn't it the same for you and Welt in the Sea of Quanta?"

Instantly, Bronya's expression became dazed and cute: "Captain, we are talking about what's in the video."

"Don't drag Bron..."

"Don't drag me into this..."

Watching Bronya's expression, Bai Feng laughed: "Hahaha..."

"Alright, alright, fine."

"Although Stelle is also a Stellaron vessel, the Stellaron is not the source of Stelle's power; Stelle's power, like that of any Pathstrider, comes from the Path."

"Only when a Pathstrider's philosophy and rules of conduct resonate more deeply with the Path will they gain greater power from it."

"Clearly, Stelle has only just stepped onto the Path of Destruction, so she can't obtain much power."

"And so, we have this scene..."

"To put it bluntly, in front of Cocolia, who has obtained greater power, Stelle on the Path of Destruction is just weak!"

Bronya looked at Bai Feng: "You really are blunt enough..."

"Captain!"

Her words carried a hint of sarcasm.

Bai Feng chuckled: "Don't be anxious, this has only just begun..."

"It's just like when facing the Doomsday Beast."

"Desperate situations won't cause our Stellaron vessel to fail; they will only make her even stronger!"

"Don't forget, this is the protagonist!!!"

"Which game protagonist is ever weak?"

"Right, Bronya!"

Bronya couldn't help but clench her fists, looking at Bai Feng with her dazed 'Duck' face.

This made Bai Feng laugh out loud once again.

He truly felt that when Bronya made this face, it was when she was at her cutest...

The viewers also believed it.

There would be changes to come...

In the video screen...

Before the few people below could go up, they saw Stelle's chest pierced and her falling directly from that platform...

Frightened, the group rushed over at top speed, wanting to catch the falling Stelle!
