===Part 10===

Neue Schwarz sprinted forward.

It used the force of its wings to race down the road and slip through the 30-yard gap at the edge of the dome.

It soon reached the western end of Treptow. Its movement could have been interpreted as low-altitude flight or a gliding across the surface. Its wind crashed into the buildings around it and its destination came into view after only 7 seconds.

That destination was a bridge.

The bridge over the foggy Spree was covered by a glowing roof.

Neue Schwarz spread its wings to brake. A few lights flew in from straight ahead.

Before identifying them as red-hot shells, it leaped to the left.

High-speed shimmering heat tore through the air and passed by the black Heavy Barrel’s right side.

Neue Schwarz raised its right arm, grabbed the Word Rifle sticking out from the right of its back, and swung it down.

The forcible action bent the barrel, but it fixed the gun in place with its right arm and faced forward.

The muzzle could see the enemy. It aimed along a straight line to the bridge, but it had to see beyond that as well.

It had to look to Tiergarten located across the bridge and below the dome.

“Tiergarten has a flat structure stretching east to west. An attack from the east will clear a path to the west!”

The front and back of the weapon were boosted with anti-inertial weight emblems. A loud bursting sound rang out.

The black lion’s wings opened wide and expelled a great heat behind it.

Its forward-viewing compound eyes changed color from blue to red.

A moment later, the fog split on the other side of the bridge.

The two 75mm cannons on that side had opened fire.

Neue Scwharz crouched and stayed put.

It stared at the battlefield across the bridge, ignoring the metal shells passing by it on either side.

Its vocal device spoke through the lingering reverberation.

“Operation Glossolalia Phase 2 complete.”

Its own weapon audibly split the air.

While a Babel Cannon boosted a large quantity of Words and converted them into a great mass, the Word Rifle accelerated a small quantity of Words and increased the size of their mass. There was only one accelerator within the barrel, but the metal Words emitted from the magazine were passed through the barrel repeatedly using the linked transporter spaces situated in the front and rear of the barrel.

The bullet made approximately 130 million loops of the 4-yard barrel in just two seconds, passing through the accelerator once each time.

Finally, a great penetrative power was launched.
