Seele's question suddenly stumped Bronya, but even so, she still answered honestly: "Not yet..."
"That......"
"It doesn't matter, we have a way to seal the star core!"
Seele just felt that her intelligence had suddenly grown to its peak, and was preparing to use it to negotiate for some unequal treaty from Bronya, but who would have thought that March Seventh would suddenly jump out.
"Is what you said true?"
"Of course. Actually, we have discussed this issue with the so-called 'Great Guardian' before, but who would have thought that she not only didn't believe us, but also wanted us to go to the lower area to fight to the death with that guy named Kevin?!"
"...Do you still know Mr. Kaslana? Is he in the lower district now?"
"Hey, it's cooked!"
That’s right, the ripe butt was almost beaten into eight pieces.
"What, you know that guy too?" Hearing this, Seele even forgot that March Seven had interrupted her and simply raised her eyebrows at Bronya.
"Mr. Kaslana once saved my life."
This alone is enough to make Kevin's position in Bronya's heart almost as high as Cocolia's.
"Well, in that case, I will choose to believe you for now. Tell me, what do you want us to do?"
After saying so much, it’s not even as good as what Bronya said, “I know Kevin…” Although Kevin is not here, he has successfully served as the peace ambassador between the upper and lower districts.
"After all, only a few of the Silvermane Guards are willing to fully trust us in such a short period of time, so we are actually very short of manpower... The road to the north alone is completely blocked by rifts and monsters. It is difficult to get through without sufficient hard power."
"But in order to show our sincerity and prevent any further trouble, our first step is to control the bewitched 'Great Guardian'..."
Before Bronya could finish her words, a panting Silvermane Iron Guard suddenly ran up behind her and shouted to her, "Oh no, Lady Bronya, the 'Great Guardian' is not in Klipperburg at all. According to the news that has just spread in the camp, she led a team of Silvermane Iron Guards to the northern snowfield alone last night!"
"what?!"
Chapter 58 Walter: Huh???
At this moment, Bronya's biggest worry was still not whether her plan would be affected, but whether something unexpected would happen to her mother who left Beloberg in advance to look for the star core.
Even if the Star Core has bewitched Cocolia, no one can guarantee that the Star Core will not attack her?
"There is no time to hesitate. Hurry! In order to prevent the Great Guardian and the Star Core from making any bigger mistakes, we must head to the northern snowfields right now... Rebels in the lower regions, if you are willing to believe me, then hurry up and follow me!"
After saying this, Bronya actually led the Silver Mane Guards around her to put away their weapons and rush towards the northern front, leaving Seele and her group there.
"Tsk... this guy from the upper class is really abominable."
Seele gnashed her teeth as she watched Bronya go away, but she still turned her head to look at a member of the Earth Fire beside her: "Please tell Oleg and Nata below about the current situation. The rest of you, follow me and follow the guy in the upper area!"
Following the anxious Bronya, the group arrived outside the Silvermane Guards camp in no time. Although it was only early morning, the entire Guards camp was already alive, with Silvermane Guards running around with weapons and supplies. Anyone could tell at a glance that something was wrong.
"Lady Bronya, you are finally back!"
Bronya had just entered the camp not long ago when Jeppard, who had been in charge of staying behind, immediately rushed over.
"What's going on Jeppard, what's going on here?"
Jeppard didn't have time to ask Xi'er and the others behind him what was going on. He just lowered his head and said in a deep voice, "The situation is not good now. A large number of Rift Creatures have suddenly gathered outside the defense line. They are not in a hurry to attack, but have been wandering around and gathering together not far away."
"We have never encountered such a situation. It seems that there is something behind the scenes directing these creatures from the Rift Valley... At this rate, the number of monsters piled up outside the defense line will soon exceed the maximum range that the defense line can withstand. By then..."
Jeppard was silent for a while before continuing, "The best scenario is that the Silver Mane Guards suffer a large number of casualties."
If the entire northern defense line completely collapsed, not to mention the casualties of the Silvermane Guards, the entire Beloberg would most likely be completely destroyed in this disaster.
"How could this happen?! Could it be, the star core..."
Bronya quickly thought of the crux of the problem. Since the star core is the root cause of the erosion of the Rift, it is obviously reasonable that it also has the ability to manipulate the creatures of the Rift to some extent.
Except for Beloberg, the outside world was almost completely swallowed up by the rift, and the monsters produced were countless. Otherwise, Beloberg would not have been harassed by these rift creatures for hundreds of years.
There is absolutely no way out of passive defense. They must take the initiative to find the star core, so that Beloberg can have a chance to escape from this disaster.
Otherwise, they can really welcome the so-called new world.
"Jepard, if we choose to break out from the northern snowfield to search for the star core now, what is the probability of success?"
In Bronya's opinion, trying to seal the star core is the only way now - this will not only solve Beloberg's current predicament, but also save her mother.
"This is difficult, Lady Bronya. Not to mention that after the blockade is lifted, there is a high probability that a large number of rift monsters will pour in. There is also a large rift in the north of the restricted area. We cannot guarantee what we will encounter after entering it..."
“After all this talk, doesn’t it mean that we have to break out and find that thing called the star core to solve the problem? If you guys in the upper district don’t dare, then get out of the way and don’t block my way.”
Seeing that these guys were still hesitant at this time, Xier immediately stepped forward to interrupt them.
Anyway, even Kevin has admitted that the star core is the culprit of all disasters. So as long as she brings March 7 and the other outsiders to find that thing, won't all problems be solved?
She didn't even have to work with those whiny guys in the upper section.
"..."
Bronya turned her head and stared at the rebel behind her. After a moment of silence, she said firmly, "No, I can't let you go alone. As the successor of the Great Guardian, I have the obligation to protect every citizen of Beloberg. The Lower District is also an inseparable part of Beloberg."
"So, I will go with you."
Seele and Bronya looked at each other. After a few seconds of silence, Seele suddenly laughed out loud.
"Guess I was wrong. I didn't expect that a guy from the upper class area like you would be so brave."
———— ————
On the other side, on the Starry Sky Train in the distant sky.
"The activity in the Rift has intensified - some unknown changes are taking place in Yalilo-VI."
Walter, who was always watching the detector, came to the window and looked at the huge gray-white planet outside with Jizi. He couldn't help asking, "Aren't we leaving yet, Jizi?"
"Believe them. This is Xing's first pioneering mission. Without some pressure and twists and turns, how can it become a memory of youth?"
As she spoke, Ji Zi gently placed her hands on her waist and looked up at her companions beside her: "What about you, Walter? I even feel that you seem to be more nervous than the children on the adventure recently? Don't worry, let's leave the memories of this adventure to the three of them."
"You judge them to be safe, right?"
Facing Walter's confirmation again, Ji Zi still replied seriously: "Well, there is no imaginary reaction at the level of "Star God" or "Commander", don't worry. It's a stage for young people, we shouldn't interfere. At most... let's give a little off-field assistance."
"All right......"
Walter was just about to try to relax his mind, when suddenly another voice belonging to a third party echoed in the carriage -
"Since there was no intention to directly save this civilization from the beginning, then it is better not to intervene any further - if a bird wants to learn to fly, it can only rely on itself."
Walter turned around abruptly, and when he saw the familiar figure, his body, which had just relaxed with great difficulty, tensed up again in an instant. While reciting the other party's origins word by word, he did not dare to take his eyes off him for a moment.
"World Serpent Lord——Kevin Kaslana..."
Chapter 59: Baby birds should be allowed to learn to fly on their own
To be honest, this was the first time that Jizi saw Walter so nervous. In the past, no matter what kind of difficulties or dangers he encountered, he was always calm and wise, and sometimes he would burst out with the passion that only young people can show.
They had even faced enemies at the level of "Commanders" several times. Such beings even possessed the powerful strength to completely wipe out a star from the star map... But even so, Walter was still able to calmly lead everyone out of danger.
What kind of enemy could shock Walter's mind so much? It is also possible that his previous palpitations came from this.
Walter had occasionally mentioned his past, but Jizi only knew that his world had suffered a disaster called "collapse". He almost never mentioned any real names, and the stories he told were usually ambiguous.
World Serpent Lord...this sounds like the leader of some special organization?
"Walter, who is this person who inexplicably broke into the Starry Sky Train? Is he dangerous?" Ji Zi took a step closer to Walter, staring at Kevin who inexplicably appeared in front of her and asked softly.
"It's a bit funny to say this, I guess he's scared... I couldn't think of any way to deal with him before, and it's still the same now."
Responding to Ji Zi's question in a low voice, Walter stretched out his right hand and gently clenched it in the air. Then a black scepter appeared out of thin air and he held it tightly in his hand. It was obvious that he had entered a tense state of preparation for battle.
"The Star of Eden. I never thought I'd see this divine key in a place like this... To be on the safe side, it's better not to let Ellie see it."
After taking a complicated look at the Key of God in Walter's hand, Kevin turned his attention back to him and asked, "From the look in your eyes, I guess I've been dead for a long time in that world, right?"
"Don't worry, I'm not here to be your enemy. Even in the original world, I only think that we only have a common enemy, Honkai, and we are not in a hostile relationship."
In fact, Kevin did exactly that. Even though Walter had tried more than once to stop him from returning to the real world from the Quantum Sea, he never really killed him, and even invited him to join the World Snake.
"From the fact that you still have the time to travel, I think human civilization has completely gotten rid of the shackles of [Honkai Impact], and may even have a better future... That's enough."
At least Kevin's vision had never been wrong. Even as a former Herrscher, Walter had a stronger belief than anyone else in fighting against [Honkai Impact]. Otherwise, he would not have invited him to join the World Snake.
Unfortunately, due to the incompatibility of their philosophies, they were ultimately unable to become comrades-in-arms and were forced to stand on opposing sides in the choice to fight against [Honkai].
That situation is probably similar to Beloberg's at this moment.
"...I do agree with your belief in being strong and fighting against [Honkai], but I still cannot accept your idea and behavior of pushing all humans into the abyss for this purpose, even to this day, Kevin."
What is the [Stigmata Project]...If humans completely lose the most important thing as humans, can they really still be called humans?
"Yes, I admit that you are right."
"......What?"
Walter originally thought that they would inevitably fight because of their different ideas, but who would have thought that Kevin, whom he had never been able to convince, actually agreed with him without hesitation.
"Those children have already proved it's possible in front of me, and have already led humanity to a wider sea of stars... What reason do I have to deny your efforts?"
Kevin is actually neither stubborn nor paranoid. He just prefers to believe the reality before his eyes rather than the ideal that only exists in his words and mind.
Hearing this, Walter let down his guard a little, stood up straight, frowned and asked Kevin: "If that's the case, why are you here when you've already died?"
The adventure in the sea of stars once taught Walter one thing: in this vast universe, anything can happen.
Kevin, who seems so real in front of him, might even be a mimic of some special creature that secretly read his memory.
But when he asked this question, Walter seemed to have never thought about it... He seemed to be the one who was truly recognized as the number one sit-up person after countless versions?
“Although I don’t understand why I, who completely died in the End, was reborn in this world, on this planet, but as I just said, I am not here to be your enemy.”
Perhaps because it was a rare opportunity to meet an old friend again in such a huge crowd, Kevin inexplicably began to become more talkative, just like his former self 50,000 years ago. However, he still explained his purpose very accurately: "Since you didn't choose to take action at the beginning, it means that your purpose is not actually to completely save everyone."
"Don't deny it. After all, you should understand. In a world like this, people suffer or die in disasters every minute and every second."
"I actually agree with this approach, because you are not the babysitter of this world... But since you have made this choice, don't interfere with the process of a baby bird learning to fly on its own."
Kevin felt that it was appropriate to use the word "fledgling" to describe a civilization that had almost returned to its original state in the disaster.
Of course, you can choose to use your hands to temporarily lift it into the sky, but you will eventually take your hands away, and the baby bird will inevitably face the fate of falling to its death.
Apart from this, taking it to a high cliff or giving it encouragement are the only truly helpful means.
"Pam also felt that what he said was right. The purpose of pioneering is adventure and help, not to show off and force the world to grow."
Suddenly, a cute doll dressed in a conductor's outfit came over, and after criticizing Walter and Jizi, it handed something to Kevin: "But this passenger should also remember, don't forget to buy a ticket next time you get on the train."
Chapter 60 Oh my Uncle Yang!
"Once the gate to the restricted area is opened, the monsters on the other side will likely pour in... All the Silver Mane Iron Guards can do is to delay the enemy as much as possible to buy you as much time as possible."
"Once you break through the front line... we will no longer be able to help you. You will have to find out for yourself what the northern rift is like."
"So Lady Bronya, and everyone else... have you made up your mind?"
Standing under a huge and majestic steel door, Jeppard, who was standing at the front, led a group of fully armed Silver Mane Iron Guards and turned his head to look at Bronya, Seele, March Seven, Xing, and Dan Heng behind him, a total of five people.
This iron gate is the last fortress between Beloberg and the Rift. It has never been truly opened many times in decades, because the limited number of Silver Mane Iron Guards are not suitable for hand-to-hand combat with the endless monsters of the Rift, and most of those who entered the Rift never came back.
Even the limited orders to go out to fight and explore the rift were issued by Cocolia herself.
As for why the team was reduced to only five people this time? It was because countless experiences had proved that the more people there were in the Rift, the better. Besides, there were also many Rift creatures outside, and a team that was too bloated would inevitably become their main target of attack.
A team of five people is not too many, but it is completely enough.
