Abyss Flower, full name Eternal Oblivion: End of the Lost Paradise, Abyss Flower.
Everyone in Future City just called it "Abyss Flower." It wasn't that Siegfried hadn't tried to popularize its real name, but those boring old fossils in Future City would rather call it by its professional designation than its full name.
[Quantum Robot], that was the professional abbreviation for Abyss Flower.
The name was highly misleading, because its full name should be...
"Controllable Quantum Collapsed State Nanoparticle Brainwave Remote Sensing Medical Particle."
A nanoparticle whose collapse result could be actively chosen by the operator.
The specks of light Bianka saw were actually nanoparticles transitioning from a "non-existent" collapsed state to an "existent" one. These particles typically "existed" for a very short time, far too short for the human eye to capture.
In fact, not even Siegfried could see the specks of light on the surface of Abyss Flower. Only under special circumstances could he see those nanoparticles.
Joyce's nanobot storage wristband was actually the same technology. A large number of nanobots surrounded the wristband in a "non-existent" collapsed state, and then, according to the operator's will, their collapsed state would change to carry out the subsequent tasks.
Don't be fooled by the fact that Schrodinger could also use that wristband; that was the result of them installing a user-friendly interface. Currently, there were only two known people in the world who could truly control those nanobots and these nanoparticles.
Joyce, a lifeform integrated from data, and Cecilia, a genius of the Schariac family.
Oh... and maybe Kiana, because in the records of Future City, Kiana could also activate Abyss Flower. It was just that at that time, Kiana hadn't undergone systematic training, so all she did was use those nanoparticles to build herself a sandcastle.
What a waste of a precious thing!
Truly worthy of being my daughter!
At the time, Siegfried had worn a very proud expression as he watched Joyce's heartbroken look.
Cecilia closed her eyes, holding Abyss Flower in one hand, the other maintaining that light, fluttering motion. She looked like a witch casting some magical spell.
Shigure Kira couldn't see anything, but she stood by, accustomed to it, quietly watching Cecilia's operation.
But Bianka could see it clearly...
She could even see the specks of light that had entered Siegfried's arm pass out of it, circle around, and then re-enter the skin.
Those light particles were like threads weaving through Siegfried's arm... precisely passing through all the injured areas, moving back and forth, and at the same time, manipulating the damaged muscles and bones...
Bianka was stunned.
Under the guidance of those glowing, intermittently appearing and disappearing particles, the injured areas really began to heal!
Bianka couldn't tell if it was self-healing or external repair, but she could see that the necrotic and damaged areas were being discarded by the particles, while the healthy areas began to rapidly proliferate and differentiate under their stimulation.
Even this differentiation was being finely guided by the cells to grow where they should.
If those specks of light weren't like self-aware sprites that could work intelligently... Bianka could only think of one possibility...
Cecilia was single-handedly controlling those tens, hundreds of thousands... even more! Tens of millions, hundreds of millions of nanoparticles!
And that was the truth.
Every Schariac was a born level-eight fitter. Everyone's manual dexterity and sense of balance were maxed out. This ability had little to do with physical fitness; didn't you see that those Kaslana monsters couldn't even cook?
And the other members of the Schariac family were no different from mortals compared to Cecilia. After all, hand-carving a chip was a bit too shocking...
Currently, only Cecilia and Joyce could do it.
Kiana had never tried to do such a thing with a calm mind, so it was unknown if she could do it, but according to the estimates of the people in Future City, Kiana should be able to.
There was no user-friendly interface on Abyss Flower. All the nanoparticles were controlled by Cecilia personally. If it were just for combat, it would be fine; just letting the nanoparticles run rampant would be enough to shatter body cells.
Joyce had even further expanded on this attack method, shrinking the kill zone from the cellular level down to the elementary particle level.
Just one [Limit Particle] could cause a chain reaction in the elementary particles of the target, eventually causing it to disintegrate into a large puddle of non-cohesive free electrons.
That thing was called [Seven Thunders of Retribution], a sniper rifle, and Shigure Kira's weapon.
In the room, the four of them, none made a sound. All were staring at Siegfried and Cecilia, waiting for the end to come.

After a gust of wind carrying sand, two small heads popped out of the accumulated sand.
"Hwah!" Theresa, ignoring the heat rising from the sand, opened her mouth and took a deep, life-saving breath. "I'm saved!"
After a moment, Theresa pulled her hands out of the sand and began to dig herself out with all her might.
Luckily, this wasn't quicksand, or she would probably be at the very bottom of the desert by now...
"Mmph!" A struggling sound came from the side. Theresa's digging paused. She looked over and saw that only the top of a head was sticking out of the sand.
No facial features, no limbs were visible; they were all still buried!
"Sushang!" Theresa recognized the top of Li Sushang's head at a glance. After all, she was one of the few people shorter than her, a fact she remembered very clearly.
Seeing that Li Sushang was about to be suffocated by the sand, Theresa quickly started to dig her head out.
Dammit! My arms are too short!
"Mmmph—"
Just as the two were about to meet their end in their struggle, a helpless sigh was heard. Then, a tall figure appeared behind them, and with one hand on each, pulled them out of the sand.
"Hah—!" Li Sushang, pulled out of the sand like a radish, greedily sucked in a large breath of air, then wore an expression of ecstasy.
I'm saved~
"Theresa-sama, you can call me if you need help," Rita said with a smile, still holding one in each hand.
"Uh..." Theresa, feeling it was very undignified to be carried like this, didn't want to talk.
