DONG—HUMMMMMMM!
A deep, metallic heartbeat echoed from the very center of Black-Iron Moon.
Across the twenty-mile basin of the No. 1 Planetary Volcano Forge, all one hundred thousand black-iron anvils and fifty thousand gym machines began to hum in the exact same musical key—a rich, resonant C-sharp that made every piece of refined Star-Steel on the moon glow with a faint golden halo!
Down on the factory floor, Chief Shi Gang and the five hundred thousand Star-Iron Golems stopped swinging their hammers and looked down at their own mirror-bright chests in amazement.
“Brothers! Feel the ground!” Chief Shi Gang shouted, his orange furnace-eyes shining like twin moons. “For ten thousand years, the heart of our moon was half-asleep and choked with cold magnetic slag! Now that Lord Pei cleared the volcano vents, woke up Old Nine-Mouths, and turned our ore into tools that help hundreds of millions of living beings, the Moon-Core Spirit has fully awakened!”
In Crater #6, General Tie Zhan, Ye Guhan, and two hundred thousand sweaty martial gym members felt the 10x Heavy Gravity around their bodies suddenly turn as warm and gentle as spring water. Instead of pressing down on their spines like cold lead, the magnetic pull of the moon began to rhythmically massage their meridians with every heartbeat!
