Chapter 1, Part 5 - The Last Amber Doll

19:11. Less than a minute passed after Amber was informed.

It was getting dark, but not yet dark enough to need to return home. Timmy, again upset that his pigeons had been scared away, stood facing the edge of the bridge, alternatively watching the ducks swim by. Not pigeons of course, but at least something

- Eh… Well, why don't they build another bridge so that people can run and walk along it?! - The boy crossed his arms over his chest indignantly - No, all passing adults need to scare away my pigeons... Eh, I'll go home, I'm bor-

His monologue was interrupted by the hook of V1 approaching Mondstadt, which pierced the boy's head in the temple area. When the entire tip was in the child's head, the machine started the process of quickly returning the cable. And when Timmy's head was on the green robotic palm, the sliding death, having passed the bridge by a third and not slowing down, pressed the skull to the paved path, and leaving a red trail, cut off the right half of the cherry to the nasal septum.

At the moment when the distance to the guards, gaping from boredom, was twelve meters, they were finally able to pay attention to the sound of metal rubbing against stone, and then to a blue figure, with glowing yellow pseudo-wings and a camera, rapidly approaching them.

To rid the palm of the remainder of the skull, V1 sharply clenched his fingers, crushed the boy's temporal bone, and sharply raised his hand, changing it to blue, while Timmy's body, due to the residual energy, drove another five meters until it came to a complete stop at the feet of the left guard.

Timmy is dead

Once the hand was freed, the next targets were the gate guards. They didn't even have time to make a sound of danger, like a machine holding a revolver in his left hand, a powerful shot pierced the left throat, forcing him to bend over and choke in blood. And when the right one reflexively turned his head, V1, using a jump-dash from two legs, like Minos, flew into the chest - the right one flattened the aortic arch with a bifurcation of the trachea, and the left one tore the diaphragm and stomach, instantly causing the half-digested fisherman's sandwich and gastric juices to spill into the open wound. As soon as the robot's feet pierced the armored body of the guard and hit the wall, he immediately jumped back, removing his blood-covered legs from the flesh. Upon landing on the ground, the right guard immediately fell into the fetal position, writhing in agony without the ability to cry out. Thus, he released his spear, which was picked up by V1, and pulled the left guard with a hook that pierced the left chest, and during the approach he lost the frontal part of his head, which was cut off along the line from the eye sockets to the top of the head. Having done this, the twitching corpse was thrown onto the dying fellow sufferer, after which the robot, holding a spear, stood in front of the entrance

Even before the revolver fired, but after Amber's run, the city was as before. Traders behind the counters, lay people communicating with each other, going about their business. Keya is sleeping from a hangover, Diona and Klee in a witch costume are sitting on the edge of the fountain, facing towards the exit, and weaving wreaths, while to their right that blind girl once again came to pray for the well-being of her mother. But after the shot, everyone immediately turned their heads towards the main entrance, just like the girls who stopped the weaving. Everyone was wary of the new sound, except for Keya, he is sleeping now. Well, when they saw a glimpse of a guard, stretching in the opposite direction, the love spell part of the city fell silent, and Klee decided to stand on the edge of the fountain in order to see from above what was happening

- What was that sound that... Oh, what is that?..

Having noticed a standing blue silhouette, the suicide bomber, to the best of her stupidity and childishness, began to wave her hand in greeting, for which she was instantly punished. V1 chose her as the highest priority target, and threw a projectile with a vertical tip at the girl. It hit Klee's body exactly in the middle, and pierced up to the shaft, piercing the area from the bottom of the groin to the solar plexus. At the same time, the child's body, due to the force of the throw, became nailed to the spire of the fountain. Pelvis, the undeveloped uterus, the entire intestine, a small part of the stomach, most of the spine and the aorta were cut in a straight line. The blood immediately began to turn the water red.

From such an action, the faces of everyone, including Diona, were instantly filled with horror, and for the cat girl, with trauma. She continued to sit on the edge and dropped the wreath from dandelions

Klee's body immediately trembled in pain, his eyes rolled back, the torment blocked the ability to think and took away his breath. Agony overtook a life that had not yet really begun

After the attack, everyone watching at the same time was overtaken by panic. Everyone tried to escape, but the machine had already begun to explode, break, shoot through those who were escaping, causing limbs, heads, and entrails to fly around, sprinkling walls and roads with the blood of innocents

- Kleeeee!

The Master and the others had to delay in order to urgently contact Venti so that he could call his flying friend for help. Seeing the death that V1 brings, she, together with Noelle, who provided the two with a barrier, attacked the machine, thereby saving the owner of the "Cat's Tail" from a rocket explosion, pushing the machine with a stream of air. The rescued woman, without thinking, grabbed the frozen and devastated Dione, rushed between the houses towards the cathedral of the archon, who were urgently provided with shelter in the form of underground rooms where the Lyre of the Winds was kept. Well how can I say

her fake

- Diona, dear, everything will be fine, I'm nearby... Do you hear?

- Kl...Klee... killed... - The girl with a frozen face and tears in her eyes whispered this phrase

Let's fast forward to the events near the fountain. Seeing that his opponents were also wearing shields, V1 took out a green nail gun, and dodging the blows,

tried to deal with Jean in the same way as with the cryo mage of the abyss. But since it was a geo-shield, melting was not part of its property, therefore, by pressing the hot trunks, they were simply placed against the barrier, nothing more. The machine almost lost all of its arms from a vertical blow from Noel, who ran up from behind and made a jumping swing, strengthening the blow with his element. V1 was saved by a jerk to the side, after which he switched to a rocket launcher and fired at the maid's feet, the shock wave of which lifted her a couple of meters up and shook her brain a little. And this time was enough to make 2 strong blows to the master's defense, from which only small cracks remained, but the main damage was caused by the shock wave passing through the barrier, delivering an overload to the body as when a launch vehicle takes off into space. And all this time V1 was in motion, sliding and dodging one-handed and two-handed swords, and slowly breaking through the shields of both in the same place. Two of them were already bleeding from their noses due to overload.

- Master Jin! - After the scream, another powerful absorbed blow occurred, and she herself could barely stand at the top of the steps, while somehow delivering blows - I won't be able to stand it soon!

- A little more! They are already long.. - The clouds over the city began to thicken and darken, at the same time a strong wind was arriving from the north-west direction - Now!

After the command, the maid took a stance with her sword at the ready. The robot immediately took advantage of the moment and struck, breaking the shield. But it was planned. After breaking through, Jean, with her meat, standing a couple of steps below Noel, lifted the machine into the air, leaving it hanging without the ability to get out of the ground. Having a ready explosion of elements, she redirected all the elemental energy into the skill, causing the flows of holding air to become many times more powerful. All drops of sweat and blood were immediately swept away from the faces of the girl and woman, and they flew into the houses. Neatly laid out vegetables and fruits on the counters fell onto the paved road from the wind, dirty from behind the dust, the warriors' hair fluttered from side to side so much that it seemed as if they were simply abruptly twitching from side to side.

The Magister was going to send V1 into the air to the level of the clouds, so that at the height of two gatherings, the people sitting on Dvalin, in the form of Amber, Lisa and Venti, would blow it up once and for the remaining strength after the battle into her right hand, Jean, with a furious cry and a noticeable heaviness in her limb, jabbed into the sky in one sharp movement, sending the robot with the initial speed of a bullet towards the heroes in the sky. True, this action did not go without a trace.

After the launch, her triceps tore, and it immediately contracted, huddled into a kind of hard lump, which she, having dropped the sword, held on to with her left hand, falling to her knees. The master held back the pain, but the wrinkled grimace immediately betrayed her patience. Noelle immediately hobbled towards her, sat down exhaustedly on the steps, and then lay down on them, watching what was happening in the sky, smiling, since they were able to stop "it"

Well, in the meantime, the people on Dvalin began to carry out their part of the plan quickly thought up by the lighter. With Lisa's help, they had to charge Amber's bunny with an electrical element, thereby making the explosion more powerful. And to be sure, direct lightning from the clouds created by the dragon into a metal body so that it too enters into an overload reaction. Venti acted here as a sniper, who, with his precise air flow, would shoot from a bow as a kind of arrow, delivering the explosives to the place. When the machine rushed horizontally upward, without controlling this process, and passed our air forces, Lisa, using a catalyst, absorbed electricity into the doll with her left hand, when with her right hand she gave a discharge from the clouds, which hit V1 and was immediately absorbed. And as soon as the enemy reached the highest point of his flight, the archon released the bowstring, and a powerful gust of wind at a speed of about 120 m/s was sent to explode the alien. But something happened that no one could have expected.

Flying past the dragon, V1 was already in control of his body, and without waiting for the moment of approaching the clouds, he turned his back to the sky, and having discovered with his camera an elemental bomb rapidly approaching him, he prepared to reflect it. About a second and a half, and Baron Bunny overtook the intruder, who, with one precise, calculated movement, charged the doll with his blue left hand. A resounding sound, a flash that appeared in the eyes of those who hoped to destroy the cruel mechanism, and the hope of the people of Mondstadt turned for them into an intensified and accelerated bomb, ready to erase the entire center of the city, with Jean and Noel who were there, witnessing the birth of the cause of their death. Leaving behind a burning trail,

Baron Bunny rushed towards the city with acceleration three times with a different goal - to wipe it off the face of Teyvat.

Dwalin, sensing an inexplicable increase in elemental energy, together with Venti, decided to try to deflect the improvised warhead into Lake Sidorov, but before they had time to create a flow of air, the doll was on the same level as them, and Maurice fired an electric shot at her.

As soon as the violet beam made contact with the explosive, a millisecond reaction began. A bunch of factors suddenly came together: Baron Bunny Amber's overload, parrying, which increased the explosive potential, the ability of the alternative version of the railgun to enhance the explosion, and its power of electro, received thanks to Lisa, who unintentionally fulfilled the fate of her vision

It exploded over the city. The radius of destruction was equal to the distance from the archon's cathedral to the fountain with the elf girl already bleeding on it. And only the height of the explosion did not leave a molten crater inside the city. But this did not prevent the shock wave from reaching Springvale, leaving only destruction in its path, and the sound from forever deafening the inhabitants of Mondstatt hiding under the cathedral, tearing their eardrums

All the buildings of the city, as well as the walls and the bridge, collapsed like houses of cards before a storm, thereby killing only a few of those who was hiding inside, including Keiu, who, while in a sleep due to too much alcohol, died due to the fact that his chest was pierced by a piece of a broken beam from the ceiling, leaving the commander, who woke up due to pain with a broken heart, to bleed under the rubble.

Dvalin and the passengers on it did not even have time to realize their death - the temperature incinerated them faster than the nerve impulse could reach the brain. Nothing remained of them, and the statue of Barbarossa was turned into a pile of stones. The north wind immediately stopped blowing.

Jean and Noel were killed in the first second after the explosion. Their sitting bodies looking at the sky were pressed into the road surface, and the heat turned muscle porridge into overcooked kebab. Well, Klee's body was pressed through the shaft, dividing it into two ugly halves, which fell into the bloody water of the fountain. And this destructive shock wave scattered the thickening clouds over the city, leaving a circle of the evening sky in the sky, looking at the ruins of a recently lived place. The residents of Springvale also did not survive. Everyone was either crushed by the walls or killed by the shock wave, which tore apart all the internal organs. Among the victims, the plus was Razor, who died due to the fact that all his organs were in a mess in the lower part of his torso due to his grounded running and body turned towards Mondstatt.

V1, circling on a rocket after lifting into the air due to an explosion to a level above the clouds, observed the result of his work. A little later, the machine jumped off the flying projectile and quickly fell down. Upon landing loudly on both legs with a slight bend of the knees, the robot began to inspect the area. There is nothing left of the city. This place is now associated only with the ruins of an ancient civilization. Empty and not inhabited by anyone... But it's not like that

The Absorber was able to detect under the place where the cathedral was located three Eyes of God with different elements: hydro, anemo and cryo, which was slowly becoming weaker than all of them. And approaching the epicenter of this "signal", it becomes more and more distinct, and V1 saw the destroyed entrance to the underground secret part, littered with the remains of the temple walls. Armed with a shotgun, that explosion after explosion began to clear the road, until eventually a spiral staircase down appeared

Everyone sitting in the shelter was bleeding from their ears, everyone was suffering. And Barbara tried to heal them all, but because of the same torment, she could not concentrate. Sucrose sat huddled in a corner because of the fear of what was to come, and Dione was left with the same blank look as she saw the murder of her friend. She didn't feel any pain in her ears, or anything at all. The child's psyche was destroyed. Other people either cried, mostly children,

either they were trembling with fear, or they were hugging their relatives. Of these, the worst was the blind girl, who lost another sense, and could no longer perceive this world before. Although she doesn't have much time left anyway, because V1 has already descended into the room

Those who saw him screamed, but no one could hear them. Well, in the meantime, the machine took out its saw gun and, pressing the hook, released the rebounding disks of death, which ricocheted, most often they wounded, but also cut heads, arms, legs, stomachs, throwing out organs. And the machine didn't stop. She burst into the crowd, and opening fire from a rocket launcher, found herself in a bloody rain. Next came a weapon change to a shotgun, and V1 began his safari on the panicking, constantly stumbling laymen.

Barbara, who saw this, was paralyzed by fear, as was Sucrose. But the robot chose Dione to die first. Taking her by the neck with his blue hand, he threw the girl up, and with a green nail gun began to increase the amount of lead in her body, mainly in the body. There has already been a response to this pain - the cry of a child's agony. When the alternative attack was charged, the machine changed its weapon to a green shotgun, and when the still living body filled with nails began its fall down, V1 filled the indicator to red, and firing close, tore apart Diona's torso with shot, causing for which her arms, legs and head flew in different directions for a short distance, and fell on the disfigured remains of bodies, merging with the mass

The robot dealt with Barbara as follows. Jumping towards her, having previously killed a dozen more people, V1 kicked his sister in the stomach with a roundhouse kick, and when she hit the bookcase, he tore off her hands. Throwing them to the side, he grabbed his left leg and turned around and threw it. And when the girl was in the air, parodying the bloody wheel, V1 hit her in the neck with a charged shot from a blue alto revolver.

After this, the body continued its flight to the second floor, where it fell to the left of the instantly graying Sucrose, and the living head of the idol fell somewhere nearby, where it died

Only the young alchemist remained. When the remnants of the civilian population were killed, the main character jumped to the gray-haired girl and began his murder. Lifting her by the hair above the floor, he put his right hand in her mouth, grabbed her lower jaw, and sharply pulled her down, tearing it out along with a piece of skin on the neck. Having let go of the bone, it dangled on the chest, after which, leveling the palm and squeezing the fingers towards each other, V1 entered the chest with his hand through the solar plexus, and roughly grabbed the handle of the sternum, pulling it with the entire sternum out of Sucrose. And through the hole he created, the machine was additionally drenched in blood, after which she threw the twitching and crying girl aside on the floor to die.

Now everyone is definitely dead. Mondstat is no longer on the Teyvat map

Rising to the surface after the genocide, there was a terminal in front of V1. Having approached him and made contact, this message appeared on the display

"MODEL V1, YOU HAD US A LOT OF FUN. AND YOU DEFINITELY DESERVE AN AWARD ;"

By going to the empty tab where the Absorber was purchased, the "Typhoon Strike" button appeared. Without hesitation, the machine acquired this new product. After the purchase, the red hand was improved - now on two phalanges there were small, but extremely saturated with the color of the anemone element, the Eyes of God. There was a difference - the silhouette of the element was bloody. The frame matched the style and color of the hand.

After examining the innovation, V1 decided to test the improvement. Therefore, turning to the collapsed part of the temple that was behind the spiral staircase, I hit it. But nothing happened. Until the shock wave arrived. It has been strengthened many times over. Power, from which the machine could not stay on its feet and was pushed back a little. While pieces of the building flew towards the Petrel's lair, some of them fell into the lake, while others collided with rocky rock and crumbled. But now you need to saturate them with blood for reuse.

Seeing the result, the machine turned around, holding a revolver in her right hand, and walked towards the exit from the city to look for blood, passing the limbs and remains of innocent bodies.

Mondstatt is dead

The end is near

Hell is now Anemo-Archont
