The Dimensional Book of Collapse

Qin Mo suddenly remembered and quickly said to Xiao Xier beside him: "Xier, don't tell anyone else about this when you go back, okay?"

Xiao Xier felt a little strange, but still nodded.

Qin Mo breathed a sigh of relief, and seeing that the others were somewhat confused, he explained, "Because Fu Hua is living with us now, although she probably won't be angry about such a small matter, it's better not to tell her."

Chapter 47: Machinery House

"Uptown, I haven't been here for a long time."

Da Xier looked at the bright and beautiful upper city area, then looked up at the sky. These were scenes that could not be seen below.

"We didn't have a chance to look around last time because we were captured. We wanted to look around the next day."

March 7th also said angrily.

"Let's get this sorted out first, and then we can move around as we please."

Dan Heng's temperament can be said to be exactly the same as Kevin in Qin Mo's impression: "We look different from before, so we shouldn't be recognized, but Bronya's appearance has not changed, so I'm afraid someone will investigate."

"Yeah, I think so too. Xing, you...what are you doing!"

San Yue Qi also nodded, then looked at Xing, only to see her standing in front of an ordinary trash can, looking at the trash can in front of her, lost in thought.

Perhaps attracted by the unknown hidden in the trash can, she reached out her hand, opened the lid of the trash can and looked inside. Just as she was about to reach out and touch the inside of the trash can, she was pulled open by March 7th.

"Fu Hua went to look through the trash can... I couldn't even imagine this scene."

At this time, Xing was using Fu Hua's image. Even if Fu Hua didn't mind others borrowing her appearance, Qin Mo couldn't imagine how Fu Hua would look at him if he did such a thing.

Fortunately, March 7th separated the stars and prevented them from making a fool of themselves any further.

"Dan Heng? What are you looking at?"

Jiaxing didn't let her continue to act recklessly. Sanyueqi saw Danheng looking at a wall. There was a trash can in front of him, and he was speechless.

"You wouldn't..."

Dan Heng pointed to the paper on the wall in front of him without saying a word.

"This is?"

"Wanted order..."

“Who drew this?”

"The painting should be of you three."

Qin Mo and the two Xiers also came over and were speechless when they saw the wanted poster on the wall that looked like kindergarten graffiti.

“Hahahaha, this drawing is too funny.”

Sanyueqi pointed at the picture and laughed, saying, "This way, even if the person concerned stands under the wanted poster, he won't be able to recognize it."

Xing smiled awkwardly, and after seeing that there was no one else around, he quickly stepped forward and tore off several wanted posters.

"Xing, why are you tearing this up?"

San Yue Qi looked at Xing's actions and asked with some disgust.

"It would be too shameful if this thing spread in Beloberg."

He rolled up the wanted poster and said, "I want to ask who drew this later."

"As for this painting skill...it should be Jeppard."

Bronya rubbed her brows with a headache. "Guard Officer Jeppard is good at everything except drawing. The point is, he thinks he draws very well."

"Haha, I didn't expect that cold ice cube has this side."

The wanted order was just a small episode. With the guidance of some kind passers-by, everyone finally found the door of Shiluwa's machinery house and knocked on it.

"Who is it? We are closed today. Come back tomorrow."

Shiluwa's voice came from inside.

"Silva, it's me, Bronya."

"Bronya? Why are you here?"

Following Shiluwa's voice, a woman opened the door of the mechanical house.

"It's really you, Bronya, come in, who are these people?"

Although she saw some unfamiliar people, Shiluwa still let a few of them in.

"Shiluwa, do you remember us? We helped you fix things before."

March 7th waved his hand.

"Helped me fix things? I don't think I've met you guys before."

Xiluwa looked puzzled, and Xing held his forehead: "We look different from before, March 7th."

"Oh, yes, wait a moment."

San Yue Qi quickly broke off his disguise and returned to his original appearance.

"Ah, it's you, and the others too?"

Xiluwa looked at March Seven in surprise, and Xing beside him also removed his disguise.

"Aren't you the wanted criminals of Cocolia? How come you got together with Bronya?"

"What on earth happened? You actually let this rigid Bronya openly disobey Cocolia's orders?"

Bronya coughed, as if to indicate that she was still there.

"I'm the best at telling stories! I'll do it!"

San Yueqi immediately raised his hand, and Dan Heng said helplessly: "Don't exaggerate too much."

After March Seven's vivid and moving description, Silva looked at Bronya.

"Although it's a bit exaggerated, it's exactly what she said."

Bronya said helplessly.

"Ah... Star cores, so this thing is really related to the cold wave? When I was still in City Builders, star cores were my subject, and then I calculated that star cores were related to the Rift. In order to study the Rift, I applied for an on-site survey of star cores, and then later, as you know, I was expelled from City Builders."

Xiluwa said helplessly: "Soon after the preliminary research report and application were submitted, I was punished. It was obvious that someone didn't want me to continue."

"Sure enough, Shiluwa, you and Mother used to be good friends. Has she changed a lot from before?"

“Cocolia…” Xiluwa shook her head. “She has become a completely different person since she took the position of the Great Guardian. Her previous beliefs and passion… seem to have been pulled out of her body by some force.”

Xiluwa's tone was very sad: "She personally issued an order to expel me and refused to see me... I don't know much about her subsequent behavior, but I have long given up using normal logic to figure her out."

"Bronya, I hope you don't mind, but sometimes I wonder if she is someone else... Does your inheritance as a great guardian have a sense of passing it down from generation to generation? Perhaps after becoming the great guardian, the real Cocolia has disappeared..."

"It is the will of the great guardians of generations... Bronya, why are you crying?!"

Shiluwa was shocked when she saw Bronya crying.

"Shiluwa, are you... sure... that our mother... has really disappeared..."

Bronya's voice was choked with sobs. Although she had been mentally prepared, she could no longer deceive herself after hearing her mother's best friend say such words.

"I...I'm just speculating. After all, Cocolia has indeed become a different person."

Silva was a little anxious. She didn't understand why Bronya, who was always strong, suddenly burst into tears, but soon, Bronya wiped away her tears.

"Shiluwa, the Great Guardian does not have the so-called consciousness passed down from generation to generation. It is the Star Core that makes the Great Guardian change. I originally planned to verify it with Mother in person, but now it seems that Mother may have really died a long time ago. What drives that body now is the will of the Star Core!"

Chapter 48: Incarnation of Cocolia

Xiluwa never expected that her ridiculous guess would be confirmed by others.

"So... Cocolia really..."

Shiluwa closed her eyes. Although she didn't cry like Bronya, she and Cocolia used to be close friends who could talk about anything. She once thought that Cocolia had changed, but she didn't expect it.

"I want to avenge her!"

To commemorate Cocolia, and also to commemorate myself who lost my fighting spirit and hid in this mechanical house after being expelled from the city builders.

"Well, I also want to avenge my mother. I have made up my mind! I will not go to see her! Shiluwa, you know where the star core is!"

Bronya looked at Silva with determination in her eyes.

"Of course I know. Although I haven't conducted an on-site survey, I have speculated the location of the star core through laboratory simulations. It is just outside the city."

"Outside the city. I thought it would be inside the city."

Qin Mo really thought that Cocolia would bring the star core into the city and hide it in her bedroom or under her desk. In this case, if he wanted to deal with the star core, he would have to confront Cocolia head-on.

"It is obvious that the Great Guardian has been controlled by the Star Core. As long as we get rid of the Star Core, she may be able to recover. So we must not let her find out about this, otherwise she will definitely stop us!"

Even after confirming that Cocolia was controlled by the star core, Bronya did not give up hope. Instead, she directly overturned her previous thoughts and stopped going to see Cocolia.

"Bronya, you're right, Cocolia...maybe there's still hope. I'll take you there right now, but we have to go through the Iron Guard restricted area if there are only a few of us."

Shiluwa hesitated.

"Don't worry, we have this."

Qin Mo raised the Gaia foundation in his hand.

"Bronya knows Cocolia best. We will put on makeup to look like the Silver Mane Iron Guards, and Bronya will put on makeup to look like Cocolia. This way, we can pass through the Iron Guard restricted area openly."

"Can you do that? Then let's do it. This way we don't have to trick those Silver Mane Guards. Although I am confident that I can get you out, it will still be troublesome if it's my brother. But if it's Cocolia, it will be much easier."

Qin Mo nodded: "The only problem now is that I have never met Cocolia."

"You've never seen the Great Guardian?"

Xiluwa asked in surprise: "Didn't your companions all go to see the Great Guardian?"

Qin Mo pointed at himself and said, "Do you think I'm wanted? I came here later and never met the Great Guardian."

"In that case, let's give this thing to Bronya. She knows Cocolia best."

Qin Mo shook his head again: "If this is handed over to someone else, March and their disguise will be cancelled. In the hands of others, they can only make up for themselves."

"That's troublesome. I do have a photo of Cocolia, but it was taken when she was young."

Shiluwa walked to the corner and picked up a covered photo frame, then brought it over.

"I originally didn't want to see this photo again, but your words made me realize that Cocolia didn't betray me, but Star Core insulted her."

After talking with Bronya, Silva also faced up to her past.

However, after Qin Mo and Bronya looked at the person in the photo, Bronya shook her head and said, "This person is very different from my current mother."

"What should I do?"

Just then, Xing raised his hand: "Well, I have a proposal."

Everyone looked at Xing, who then looked at Qin Mo: "Can't Qin Mo open the transmission channel through the beacon? Then all we need to do is let Bronya take the beacon and leave the Iron Guard restricted area, and then we can go through the channel, right?"

"Great! Xing, I didn't expect you could come up with such an idea."

San Yue Qi said with some surprise, and Bronya nodded: "It's indeed a good idea. This way, I don't have to pretend. I can just go out alone."

"No."

Xiluwa shook her head. "Although I haven't seen her for a long time, I know Cocolia. She is the kind of person who acts faster than she explains, and will abuse her power as the Great Guardian. She will definitely have the Silver Mane Iron Guard seal off the restricted area and not allow anyone to leave."

"This……"

Although Bronya wanted to defend Cocolia, after realizing that Cocolia was now controlled by the star core, some of the orders that she had originally thought were not good but had never questioned now became full of loopholes.

"Yes, the people of Beloberg have placed too much trust in their great guardian. Qin Mo, give me the things, and I will take the beacon out."

Qin Mo took out the Gaia Foundation from the equipment column and handed it to Bronya: "Try it first. Not everyone can use the imperial weapon."

Fortunately, Bronya successfully used the Gaia foundation. Although her transformation speed was slow due to its low adaptability, she still successfully transformed herself into Cocolia.

“It’s exactly the same.”

Silva looked at Bronya who had turned into Cocolia with some surprise. After Bronya spoke, she found that even the voice was exactly the same.

Qin Mo felt the little hand in his hand clench subconsciously, and he reached out to comfort Xier, who had some stress reaction after seeing Cocolia.

"Give me the beacon."
