Chapter 974 The Enchanced Gearweaver
"I anticipated this reaction, which is why I kept it under wraps until now," Seraphina admitted. "If you\'re concerned about the enhanced Gearweavers posing a threat to Paradise or its warriors, rest assured that as long as they adhere to our established maintenance protocols, there\'s no reason to worry. This weapon is tailor-made for them, so it\'s perfectly safe," she assured, shaking her head in response.
"I agree with Madam Seraphina\'s words. You can trust in our capabilities," said Valeria, one of the Healers Association Leaders.
"Certainly, we wouldn\'t unveil such a powerful weapon without ensuring every precaution has been taken to protect Paradise and its wielders. You must hear the full details to understand our confidence in this matter," Thoren added.
The Leaders of the Healers Association echoed one another, backing Seraphina\'s assurances while earnestly appealing to the Key leaders.
Stronghold Leader Seth\'s eyes narrowed in irritation. As he was about to voice his concerns, Orion swiftly interjected, "Please continue with all the details about the enhanced Gearweavers so we can decide whether to proceed with this project."
Despite his reservations about merging devourer hearts with Vylkr vines, Orion chose to hear their rationale for the enhanced Gearweavers.
Nevertheless, he couldn\'t shake the self-reproach for not intervening earlier to curb Seraphina\'s fascination with experimenting on Vylkr vines, mainly since she hadn\'t found a way to dilute it.
Seraphina glanced at Orion briefly before nodding. "Alright, listen carefully. Every Vylkr alloy, piece of equipment, and material used in creating both the Vylkr Fusion Armlet and the newly enhanced Gearweavers has been carefully forged, enchanted, and inscribed by the finest blacksmiths, runesmiths, and enchanters in Paradise."
"Through the bond forged by the Vylkr Fusion Armlet and the enhanced Gearweavers, we have calibrated the Devourer\'s hearts to establish a symbiotic relationship. This merges the enhanced Gearweavers with the wielder\'s essence and energy signature, enabling effortless utilization of their Vylkr energy. Each Gearweaver responds exclusively to its wielder or remains dormant."
"Should a Gearweaver attempt to harm its wielder, we have implemented several fail-safes. These include draining the Vylkr vine\'s energy reserves back into the Devourer\'s heart, weakening it and neutralizing its threat. This allows the wielder to assess its behaviour or bring it to us for examination."
"Also, in cases where the Gearweaver encounters issues beyond assessment, we\'ve implemented an energy feedback loop with the Devourer\'s heart. This loop redirects the Vylkr energy, prompting it to retract and quell its aggressive tendencies."
"In extreme cases, the symbiotic bond is severed, effectively cutting off the Vylkr vine\'s connection to the wielder. This triggers a self-destructive enhancement that destroys and disintegrates the Vylkr vine while it\'s weakened, destroying the Devourer\'s heart as its anchor is removed. We\'ve integrated runic sensors that work in tandem to address this issue automatically, so the warrior doesn\'t need to intervene."
"Also, we\'ve included a mental command connection and a hidden switch on the Gearweaver to manually activate any of these fail-safes.
"I understand you still have reservations about these fail-safes, so we\'re adding more protection layers before distribution. These measures ensure safety and enhance the warriors\' ability to wield their new weapons effectively. They also grant other benefits; however, you\'ll need to see them in action to grasp them fully."
Seraphina doubted they would understand if she said anything more, so she shared the primary information they needed to calm their worries. Any further explanation would require a demonstration, allowing them to see and sense the capabilities of the newly enhanced Gearweaver for themselves.
Orion and the Key Leaders pondered Seraphina\'s words with deep frowns on their faces.
They understood from her assurances that thorough considerations had been made; otherwise, she wouldn\'t be so confident. However, when handling anything related to the Vylkr vines, they knew better than to disregard its unpredictability.
"Alright, you and your group have worked hard to ensure no issues with the newly enhanced Gearweavers. Let\'s continue; I\'m curious about witnessing its might in action," Orion responded.
He knew Seraphina well enough to trust her word. Paradise was her home, so what good would it do her to allow such a weapon to roam freely without taking proper measures to guarantee their safety?
Hearing Orion\'s words, the Key Leaders held back their concerns. Although they wanted to refute and immediately shut down the production of Gearweavers, they knew their arguments would be irrelevant without the Village Chief\'s support. They could only remain silent for now.
Despite their concerns and wariness, they were also curious about what this new Gearweaver looked like and its capabilities, especially since it vastly differed from the one they knew about.
Seraphina smiled and nodded. "Follow me," she said, turning they knew about.
Seraphina smiled and nodded. "Follow me," she said, turning and leading the way forward while they followed behind her.
They soon arrived at a particular door, which Seraphina swiftly opened and led them through. The room was brighter than the procedure room. They stood on a platform surrounded by magically reinforced glass, but outside was a vast room resembling the rocky expanse below Paradise.
"We\'ve chosen two individuals to demonstrate the capabilities of the newly enhanced Gearweavers fully," Seraphina said, pointing to the two figures standing below on the sandy, rocky expanse.
Below on the rocky expanse stood Seig and Leif, each clad in their respective attire, wielding an imposing oversized sword crafted from glistening sleek Vylkr alloy with jagged edges, segmented design and intricate mechanical parts etched along the surface that gave it a menacing appearance.
The sturdy handle was designed for a two-handed grip, while the robust hilt appeared ergonomic, accommodating both single-handed and two-handed use and additional mechanical components. Elaborate guard mechanisms adorned the weapon, enhancing grip protection and aesthetic appeal.

The weapon gleamed with an inky black metallic hue, exuding an eerie aura that underscored its formidable presence.
