Nanomancer Reborn - I've Become A Snow Girl?

Chapter 1080 The Machine Legion



Meeting Khionah not too far from one of the zones, Shiro raised her eyebrow after seeing how tired she seemed.

"Are you feeling ok?" Shiro asked curiously as Khionah nodded her head.

"Yes I am. I was just preoccupied with some… important work so I didn't get much rest. However, do not worry, I will still be able to take over a few zones." Khionah reassured with a yawn.

"If you say so. I didn't bring a lot with me but this should be fine for taking the zones. From what I've gathered so far, the tier 6's who are acting as lifelines are rather weak. Even my soldiers should be able to kill them." Shiro shrugged as she gestured towards the platoon of mech pilots who stood with serious expressions along with the Asharia army uniform which was mostly black with some red highlights around the edges.

Seeing that most of them were lower than tier 4, Khionah raised an eyebrow.

"Are you sure they can handle it?"

"Yup. With some external help they will be able to. Don't worry, once you see them in action you'll understand what I mean. They're essentially a platoon of peak tier 5's that can kill a tier 6." Shiro chuckled as Khionah reluctantly nodded her head. There were doubts but she'll see what happens for herself.

Turning around, Shiro faced the platoon.

"Ahem. As I have said before, there isn't much pressure. Each of your groups have dedicated medics so protect them when you attack and you'll be fine. I expect that all of you will be able to do this. However, if things go south, you are able to send a distress signal to the specialised pilots and I'll teleport them in. So keep your cool and remember your training. Just think of it as a Sunday walk but you'll be dealing with another Queen's forces." Shiro smiled as her speech was quite relaxed.

Khionah was surprised that her soldiers were so disciplined despite the tone of her voice.

Little did she know, Shiro may sound relaxed and lazy but her training regime was nothing of the sort. She may be lazy when it comes to documents but she had informed Nan Tian of everything she wanted to do and the documentation was handled by him. The ideas still came from Shiro.

All of the soldiers managed to survive her training and were some of the best in the army despite not being specialised pilots. They didn't have that kind of aptitude.

Seeing that all of them were ready, Shiro smiled and turned around.

"Well, are all of you ready? The battle plans will be in the mechs once you summon them." Shiro smiled as they all replied with a 'Yes, your highness'.

Hearing this, Shiro nodded and glanced towards Khionah.

"It's up to you what you do. My soldiers can act as the spearhead and you claim whichever zones you want but I'll be taking two main and two small. Rest are up for grabs."

"That's fine, I'm mostly here to spectate after all."

With that, Shiro smiled and her aura flared.

"Squads one to four! Prepare to move out!" Shiro shouted as several passive skills activated. Suddenly, a golden crest appeared behind her as it was one that belonged to the Goddess of Wisdom/War, Athena. The crest was that of Athena holding a spear and shield.

The moment this crest appeared; faint golden auras could be seen on the soldiers as they all received a buff thanks to the blessing.

[All stats increased by 20% for 5 hours.]

Activating other passive skills that she had stored up, the platoon felt like murderous tier 5 beasts even out of the mech.

Seeing this, Khionah was taken aback since she didn't expect Shiro to be able to activate a Goddess' blessing.

Dashing forward, each of the soldiers separated from each other as they made sure there was enough room before jumping into the sky. Summoning the mechs, nanobots surged around them as the Earth shook from their weight.

Watching the giant army materialise from thin air, Khionah was speechless and glanced at Shiro since all of the mechs felt like high level tier 6 beings.

"Just think of it as metal golems that you can control. I'll be watching from the sky." Shiro chuckled.

Camouflaging herself, Shiro disappeared as Khionah watched the platoon of mechs charged towards the zones with blades and guns in hand. Each step would leave a crater in the ground as she then glanced towards the soldiers she brought who were staring at the mechs in disbelief.

"Your highness, what is our plan of action?" Saphi asked as Khionah glanced towards the zone.

"I suppose we follow behind and let them do what they want. It's not like we'll be able to do much with our current… strength." Khionah sighed as she could see why Shiro was so confident. If even her soldiers were this strong then there's no need to even think about her trusted officers. Knowing what Shiro was like, she preferred quality over quantity so the officers would be many times stronger than what most would assume.

'If she has this much power at her disposal right now, killing the Shadow Empress shouldn't be too difficult.' Khionah mused to herself as they started to walk towards the zones.

In the distance, they could see the guards of the zone desperately trying to protect the place to no avail.

Each swing of their sword cleaved apart the land and each shot they fired broke past the strongest defences. Despite their rampage, they were organised. The moment a powerful shield appeared they entered a firing formation and fired a volley of shots in one concentrated area, shattering the barrier.

*BOOM!!!

Suddenly, a pillar of light could be seen as a single figure rose into the air with a malevolent aura.

Seeing that it was the tier 6 lifeline, Khionah wanted to see how they'll deal with him.

Before he could even attack, a few of the soldiers broke off from the formation and created magic circles around the zone.

While they were activating a magic formation, three tank type mechs charged forward as the lifeline summoned an axe and cleaved towards them.

Blocking the strike with their shield, they parried it to the side before aiming their palm towards him.

Suddenly, the arm split apart as chains shot out. Each link in the chain had runes carved on the surface as the lifeline widened his eyes in shock. The moment the chains even came close to his body, he felt his mana getting sucked away as it was used to magnetise the chains to his body.

With his movements restricted, the spell formation around the zone activated as a triple layered tier 6 magic formation appeared in the sky.

Mana converged above them, forming a single blade and shot down like lightning.

*BANG!!!!!

Watching the tier 6 get restrained and subsequently killed in a few short moments, Khionah blinked her eyes just to make sure she was seeing things correctly. Even if they had information beforehand, creating such a counter in a few short hours was a little crazy. He wasn't even allowed to fire off one spell before his mana was turned against him and used as a prison.

With the first zone cleared, they didn't linger and immediately dashed towards the next.

Not only did they have crazy attack power, but their survivability was also off the charts thanks to the addition of the healers. They were armed with Life Fire along with a myriad of other defence improving skills that Shiro had installed. With her wide plethora of skills that she had recycled over the course of her time on Earth, it was hard to find something she lacked.

Defence? She has that covered. Stat upgrades? Pseudo Berserk? Attack increase? She had them all and some of them could even be classed as S grade skills that people could drool at the thought of obtaining.

During the low levels, percentile skills were common but this soon disappeared after a certain level. For Shiro, the skills she got at low levels were usable even in the later levels hence why they were S grade.

In the next few hours, the mechs charged through all of the zones no matter how much the enemy tried to reinforce their defence.

The moment they brought out more tier 6's, the specialised pilots would take action and crush their hopes.

Once the enemy saw the specialised pilots in action, they could see why Thiria had retreated and decided to do the same, making it easy for them to claim the rest of the zones.

Getting Attie, Estrella, Nan Tian and Keiko to integrate themselves as lifelines, Shiro now had the most points and zones in this event, thus solidifying her position as first place.

During the 'crusade', her soldiers gained a nickname that spread amongst the soldiers of the other Queens.

The Machine Legion. An unstoppable army that crushed anything in their path.

Even tier 6's weren't safe from their power.
