The hardness and sharpness of the Ancient Sword itself were incapable of piercing the alloy armor of the Mechanized Body, but He Ao, using the structural diagrams of the Mechanized Body from Vian's memories, found a seam and cunningly inserted the Ancient Sword there.
However, this greatly bent the body of the Ancient Sword.
In fact, that the sword was now broken rather than having snapped at the moment of insertion had somewhat exceeded He Ao's expectations.
Only a small portion of the sword body remained, making it usable as a short sword; He Ao picked up the broken blade.
Although this sword was full of signs of age, it was still much better in quality than ordinary swords and must have been formidable on the battlefield once upon a time.
It could be used to kill lower-level Transcendent beings.
He Ao emerged from the alley, temporarily throwing off his pursuers. He wasn't far from Nell's home now, and, of course, not far from the Federal Bureau of Investigation either.
