"Why didn't you even say hello, March?"

Dan Heng, who had just gotten up and left the house, saw March 7 walking alone into the hallway with dark circles under her eyes and her arms crossed, followed by Xing He.

Dan Heng couldn't help but frown.

Why do these two seem to have a bad relationship today?

Didn't they used to walk side by side or with San Yueqi following behind Xing He? Why is it the other way around?

No way! As the team leader, he bears a heavy responsibility and must maintain good relationships among the team members.

He didn't want to see anyone get hurt if the rift between them caused any mishaps in the upcoming operation.

When the three of them sat down in the hall to have breakfast, Dan Heng glanced at San Yueqi and Xing He sitting opposite each other and tentatively spoke.

"Did you two have a fight?"

Danheng's sudden words startled March 7, who was drinking water, so much that she choked.

"How, how is it possible!"

March 7th's expression was somewhat unnatural.

"Perhaps it's because I'm grumpy when I wake up in March."

Xing He replied casually, his attention remaining on the breakfast in front of him.

While eating breakfast, he discovered that after installing the Realistic World texture pack, he could eat slowly and methodically using various tools, just like a normal person, although his eating speed had also slowed down considerably.

Similarly, he can still choose the way to eat in Minecraft, which may seem unrefined, but it's good because he can eat quickly!

It seems that I won't have to worry about not having enough food during battles anymore, and I won't have to take out food and eat it slowly.

March 7th stared at Xing He, who was staring blankly at the food, and sighed helplessly.

Why should I get angry with this guy?

Who knows if he doesn't understand anything at all, and who knows what kind of knowledge those Star Core Hunters have poured into his brain.

After breakfast, the three of them went out together, as they needed to get to the upper district in time.

The three arrived at the entrance of Natasha's clinic, where Danheng and Seele had arranged to meet the next day.

As soon as the three arrived at the door, they saw Natasha and Seele standing in front of the iron golem, talking about something, with a middle-aged man with a stubble beard standing next to them.

"Hmm? Seele, they're here."

Natasha was the first to notice Xing He and his two companions approaching, and she smiled and raised her hand in greeting.

Xing He and the other two returned the greeting, and then looked at the middle-aged man standing next to them.

"Who is this?"

With a smile, Seele introduced him to the three of them: "This is Uncle Oleg, the leader of the Earthfire Organization."

Oleg chuckled and briefly shook hands with Dan Heng and Xing He.

"I heard about your situation from Seele. Thank you for temporarily restraining Swallow. Hopefully, it won't clash with other humans in the future."

"Probably not."

Danheng gave a brief reply, then cast a questioning look at Natasha.

Natasha immediately understood the question in Danheng's eyes; he was asking her why Oleg was there.

Natasha explained with a smile, “The road to the upper area has been blocked, but there are still some abandoned elevators that lead up. I originally had a friend named Sambo who was quite familiar with this area, and I was planning to have him act as a guide for you. But two days ago, he said he was going to the upper area to bring three friends down, and then we haven’t heard from him since. So I had to ask Oleg to come and help take you to the abandoned elevators.”

"If possible, I hope that while you're up there, you can also keep an eye on Sambo for me, a blue-haired guy who looks really unreliable."

March 7th, now back to her usual energetic self, nodded with a grin.

"Dr. Natasha, you can rest assured and leave everything to us!"

"Yes, thank you all for your help."

Oleg then spoke up: "I heard from Seele that you all want to stop the culprit behind this cold wave, right? I originally wanted to ask Earthfire to help as well, but if Earthfire appears in front of the Silvermane Iron Guards, it might cause unnecessary trouble and hinder your actions."

"However, if you encounter any insurmountable risks up there, you can always return to the lower level. I can't guarantee anything else, but at least in the lower level, the subterranean fire will protect your safety!"

Xing He nodded: "You're too kind. With Xi'er helping out, Di Huo has done its part. Uncle Oleg, you don't need to worry about it."

Oleg grinned, scratched the back of his head, and laughed heartily: "That's right, Seele is the strongest officer in our Earthfire, with her around, there won't be any problems!"

As Seele listened to Oleg's boasting, she rolled her eyes in exasperation. Which of Xing He's three wasn't better than her?

Previously, she was rendered immobile by a small wooden boat.

"Alright, Uncle Oleg, can you take us to the abandoned elevator now? We can't delay any longer. Every second we waste means the children in the lower level will be a second later in seeing the blue sky."

"Well then, without further ado, please follow me."

Oleg turned and walked in a direction outside the town, and Xing He followed, leading the iron golem tied to the outside of the clinic.

After following Oleg for a few minutes, the group arrived at an abandoned elevator hidden in a secluded rock crevice.

Fortunately, both the rock crevice and the elevator were large enough to accommodate the iron golem; otherwise, Xing He would have had to go through a lot of trouble to transport it up.

After seeing them into the elevator, Oleg bowed respectfully to them.

"Everyone, I wish you all the best."

Chapter 45: There are always some hiccups when switching maps.

As the iron golem strode heavily into the elevator, everyone could clearly feel the elevator sink a little.

March 7th, holding onto the rusty handrail, asked with some concern, "Can this elevator really withstand the strain?"

Xing He wasn't sure about this either. Putting aside the pumpkin head that made up the iron golem's head, the four iron blocks alone weighed 31.2 tons.

Fortunately, perhaps because the elevator was originally intended for transporting goods to miners, it continued to move slowly upwards after emitting a mournful cry, without showing any signs of falling.

While waiting for the elevator to go to the upper floor, Xing He opened his backpack.

He had previously removed the star core from his chest and placed it in his backpack to equip himself with the armor, but hadn't had time to deal with it.

Now we need to see what it can be combined with, so it doesn't keep taking up inventory space.

With the help of JEI's item management module, Xing He opened the Star Core information, and hundreds of synthesis recipes appeared before his eyes.

Xing He glanced at it briefly and found that all kinds of armor, weapons, tools, and even shields could be synthesized with the star core.

However, a forging table is needed to assist with the work.

Xing He first focused his attention on the breastplate, not forgetting the buff provided by placing the Star Core on his chest.

Xing He glanced at the combination of the Iron Armor and the Star Core and was surprised to find that after combining the Iron Armor with the Star Core, it gained an extra two points of armor and two thousand durability; if it were combined with the Diamond Armor, it would gain an even greater four points of armor and two thousand points of durability.

nice one!

The mere two thousand points of durability made Xing He extremely envious. More importantly, he also discovered that the star core could be removed from the workbench after it was embedded, which would save him from having to wear iron armor even when he had better armor in the future.

However, after trading with those miners last night, Xing He now has 13 diamonds, so he doesn't still need to wear iron armor.

After setting down the workbench in the elevator, Xing He quickly made a diamond breastplate, then a diamond sword and a diamond pickaxe.

In just a short while, the diamonds were all gone.

Xing He then took out an iron ingot and made a forging table, which he placed in the elevator. He then combined the star core with the diamond breastplate, thus completing his equipment upgrade.

On March 7th, seeing Xing He suddenly take off his bright white iron armor and put on a bright green one, he asked in surprise, "Why did you change your equipment? The color is quite unique."

"After all this hard work, our equipment needs to be upgraded too."

Xing He glanced at the iron breastplate that had suddenly appeared in his pocket and asked, "Do you want it?"

All three of them shook their heads.

After a long period of time, the ascending elevator slowly came to a stop, and as the elevator doors opened, a ray of long-awaited sunlight shone into the elevator.

Having not seen sunlight for a long time, Seele raised her hand to shield her eyes, feeling somewhat uncomfortable.

Dan Heng was the first to step out. After observing the surroundings and confirming that there was no danger, he waved to the three people in the elevator.

"Come out."

On March 7th, the group quickly got out of the elevator. Just as March 7th was about to stretch and bask in the sunlight, he realized that something seemed off about his surroundings.

"Are we...inside a rift?"

Almost at the same time that March 7th mentioned this, the iron golem that emerged from behind them strode heavily toward the rift creatures that were wandering not far away.

The group didn't stop them; they just stood there watching the iron golem take down one kid with a punch, having a great time.

Seele frowned as she looked around: "When Uncle Oleg and I came up from here a few years ago, this place was still part of the commercial street. It's clearly in the center of Beloborg, so how come it's still been eroded by the Rift?"

“It seems Belloborg doesn’t have much time left.” Dan Heng sighed, turning to Xing He: “Xing He, can you confirm the location of the star core now?”

Xing He glanced at the mini-map, but was immediately overwhelmed by the dense list of over a thousand entity names.

This is only a few hundred meters in area, yet there are so many entities.

After carefully examining the mini-map for a while, Xing He shook his head: "I didn't find the star core."

Xing He's answer was exactly what Dan Heng had expected; he didn't think they could find the star core so easily.

"Okay, then let's stick to the original plan. We'll first contact the researchers at Krypburg, and then make contact with the Great Guardian."

"Then what about it?"

March 7th turned and pointed at the Iron Golem that had returned to the group: "The Iron Golem is so strong, I'm worried that if we have any conflict with the Upper District, it could single-handedly take down the entire Upper District."

"Isn't that a good thing?"

Seele said excitedly, "Let this guy wipe out all those corrupt guys in the upper district and restore order!"

Dan Heng shook his head helplessly: "However, the small number of people in the lower district is not enough to support the operation of Belloberg. Let's put this idea aside."
