Yes, the horizontal area of this mechanical creation is almost the same as the entire Beloberg. It is more like a whole with those ground buildings. In comparison, this underground space seems like a redundant part.
"......"
Kevin was silent. Has he underestimated this city all along?
After all, this is the only fortress that survived natural disasters and alien invasions, the last crystallization of civilization on the entire planet... As a civilization that was once connected to the universe, when destruction is imminent, they will definitely try their best to make even the slightest possible attempt.
The huge mechanical device before him was obviously proof of this.
"What is that thing in the sky?" Kevin asked Sambo.
"Well, it's said that it's a greenhouse effect device that maintains a constant temperature in Beloberg. The most central part is the [core] that burns a lot of marrow every day. If the people in the lower areas want to exchange for useful materials, they can only go to the mining area to mine marrow and then exchange it through the transportation device there."
Sangbo spread out his palms and said helplessly: "If you ask me, those guys in the upper district don't regard the people in the lower district as human beings at all. The little supplies obtained by mining a large amount of earth marrow can't even support the normal survival of half of the people. Besides, the earth marrow is not endless."
"People in the upper districts already have this attitude. After the earth's marrow is completely mined, they may think that people in the lower districts are just the dregs of society who are a burden to them. It would be better to abandon them completely."
"But in fact, it is because the people in the lower districts have been mining the earth's marrow energy for them that their lives have been guaranteed at the most basic level. This is more than just killing the donkey after it has done its work. It is simply confusing right and wrong!"
Judging from his words and expression at this moment, he was simply a passionate and ambitious young man, which made Kevin doubt whether his previous impression of him was indeed wrong.
But just at this moment, another voice sounded not far away: "I never expected it, Sambo. I never thought I would hear such words from you."
"Originally, I was thinking whether I should beat you up first and then ask you questions clearly, but now I can't bring myself to do it."
A purple-haired girl in light clothes jumped down from a height and walked in front of the two men, carrying a sickle that was extremely inconsistent with her image.
"Hey, isn't this Miss Xier? Why are you here? I was thinking of coming to see you later..."
Click——!
Before he could finish his words, the sharp sickle was skillfully placed on Sangbo's neck, followed by a string of questions: "Don't try to get close to me. Who knows what you are trying to do here?"
"Also, who is this suspicious guy behind? I don't think I've ever seen him before. And the way he's dressed, could it be someone you brought down from the upper area?"
There was no doubt that the girl hated those guys from the upper class area.
It has been like this since childhood.

Chapter 13 There is no escape route here
"Oh, my dear Miss Xi'er, you are completely wronging me. No matter how despicable I am, I can't really become a traitor in the lower class district, right?"
With the sharp sickle still on his neck, Sambo sincerely admitted his mistake and turned to Kevin, saying, "You don't know, this is a distinguished guest from outside Beloberg. Even the Great Guardian has to bend over to receive him."
"Not only that, his strength is also so terrifying. Let alone the Silver Mane Iron Guard, even if he crosses the Rift Realm alone, it is no problem at all!"
"He is someone who can help us in the lower district a lot!"
When Sambo starts bragging, he does it without any preparation. Of course, he has never seen those scenes with his own eyes, he just talks about the impressive ones.
But luckily, he was on to something this time.
"Oh, is it so?"
These words successfully aroused some interest in Xi'er. She put the sickle on her shoulder again, then looked at Kevin carefully and said, "I don't know if there are any outsiders besides Beloberg, but you said that a person crossed the rift... Is this true?"
"Well, you could say that."
Kevin had never expected that he would meet another "acquaintance" as soon as he stepped into the lower area. He really wanted to know, even if the base number of life expanded to the boundless universe, there was indeed a high probability that two people would appear almost identical, but... would the probability really be so high, and would he happen to be matched with both?
In the future, will he be able to meet other more "familiar" comrades? Even if compared to them, he is actually just a complete stranger.
However, it’s not a bad idea to look forward to it a little.
"Oh, I just asked casually, but I didn't expect you to actually agree to it?"
Of course, Xier didn't know that what Kevin was thinking at the moment was completely different. She just raised the sickle in her hand and spun it quickly, then smashed the tip of the handle hard on the ground and looked at the other party seriously.
"Well, how about we make a bet? Nata's clinic is in urgent need of some medical supplies. Since you said you're here to help, do you dare to go with me to the Rift to get some back?"
"If you have the ability to come, then I, Xi'er, will naturally respect you. But if you don't dare, then quickly go back to your comfortable upper area."
Oh my dear, please don't talk to this master like this!
Listening to Xier's unabashedly aggressive words, Sambo's heart almost jumped out of his throat. If this gentleman was not satisfied with anything, his head might be twisted off and used as a baseball.
"As long as you don't hold me back." Kevin raised the baseball bat in his hand nonchalantly and answered.
Of course, he was not without temper. Even though he knew very well that the malice was not directed at him, it did not stop him from teaching the other party a lesson on what was high and what was deep.
Since she really sees herself as a warrior, she should also understand what it means to be a qualified warrior.
Just like what he taught Kosmo in Fire Moth.
"Gentlemen, please don't be so angry. We should value harmony. Harmony brings wealth..."
"Stop talking so much useless nonsense, Sambo. There's nothing for you to do here anymore, just go somewhere cooler!"
Xier waved her sickle and drove the incoming Sambo aside, then looked at Kevin and tilted her head: "The Rift is over here, don't fall behind."
The two of them had no interest in paying any more attention to Sangbo. As they watched the two men gradually walk away, Sangbo finally breathed a sigh of relief and smiled with satisfaction: "Finally, the mission is completed. I am so exhausted."
"I wholeheartedly hope that Belloberg can get out of his predicament and rise to the challenge. Otherwise, where can I find such a good place?"
On the other side, seeing Kevin following behind her without saying a word, Xier's lips moved a few times, and finally she simply said: "Although this is to test your courage, in order not to be so unbearable, there are a few points I still want to explain."
"Most of the supplies we're looking for are in the orphanage in Rivet Town. Because the Rift's erosion came too suddenly, Nata didn't have time to move a lot of her stuff out of the orphanage, so we have to take the risk and go deep into the Rift."
"Everyone knows that the Rift is dangerous, but there is nothing we can do. If we don't get these medical supplies, many people in the clinic will get into trouble because they can't get effective treatment... Can what I said help you, who seems to be uninterested in everything, to be a little more interested?"
"I heard that you are not just coming to the upper-level area, but to other places far away from Belloberg? I have read few books and I can't understand your concepts of far and near. But to you, maybe the so-called The Beloberg trip is just an insignificant game."
"Whether the people of this city finally succeed in getting a perfect ending, or completely perish under the invasion of monsters, it is just a matter of being happy or sad for a while for you."
Xier turned around, her scarlet eyes fixed on Kevin's cold expression: "Don't deny it, I can see what you are thinking."
"But, these don't matter to me at all, and you don't have to explain... As long as you can really help us, what does it matter?"
Useless concern is worthless, but a hug with malicious intent may be like dawn.

[You hesitated... right? ]
Cocolia stood in a dim space, in front of her was a strange device that seemed to restrain the starlight. In her mind, the tone that sounded like many overlapping voices echoed again.
"..."
There was silence in this dim space.
[You have no way out, right? ]
[The warriors who sacrificed their lives for you did not understand you, and the people in the lower districts also regarded you as a tyrant... But this short-term misunderstanding can bring eternal prosperity. ]
[Until now, the choice is still in your hands. You know, sooner or later this planet will be reborn after it falls into silence.]
【It's your choice...we respect it. 】
"But didn't you say that? That unknown outsider may have the ability to easily rewrite the entire planet's body shape... As long as he doesn't want to, my choice doesn't really mean much, right?"
【...】
"You mean, there are other outsiders who have arrived on this planet, and they are equally not to be underestimated?"
【...】
"Well, I understand. You don't need to say more."
"Of course I know that these outsiders don't care about this planet or the future of Beloberg from the bottom of their hearts."
Otherwise, these so-called friendly aliens should have come to help this planet seven hundred years ago.
From the beginning to the end, Cocolia had no other choice.
Even if there is more than one road ahead...but whether it is right or wrong, someone has to take the first step, right?

Chapter 14 Walter is somewhat uneasy
At the same time, if you could raise your vision infinitely to the near-Earth orbit outside the planet, you would find that a long gray-black train was miraculously parked in space, motionless.
In most people's common sense, trains are a type of ground transportation that cannot travel without tracks. This wonderful scene is bound to make people marvel.
But think about it from another perspective. Who knows, maybe those aliens you don’t know anything about like this style?
"The space reading is abnormal! The star track stability rate has dropped to 12%!"
On this strange interstellar train, a little doll wearing a captain's hat told the passengers about the current situation: "The stop plan has changed. The stop time at this station will be extended from seven days to indefinitely."
"Indefinitely?"
The silver-gray-haired girl in front subconsciously questioned this conclusion, and the red-haired woman next to her also gave her an answer in due time: "Using a normal land train as an example, our current situation is like the track suddenly breaking, and there is a collapsed abyss below... At this time, we have no choice but to apply emergency brakes, right?"
"To be honest, Xing, we have encountered this situation many times before. I don't even need to guess that the cause this time must be the star core again. As for the nature of that thing, uh... how did you say it?"
The pink-haired girl standing on the other side of Xing scratched her head for a moment, unable to explain what was going on.
Fortunately, Walter, who had been carefully observing the data, stepped forward in time and explained: "In fact, up to now, no one or organization has yet explored the true nature of the star core."
"The only thing we can be sure of is that the falling of the star core will bring about dramatic changes in civilization and ecology, and will also produce space distortion phenomena such as the rift. The reason why Yalilo-VI has become such an icy planet... is probably related to the star core."
"According to our speculation, the star core is actually the seed of disaster that a certain star god has spread to various worlds. If we don't eradicate the source of the disaster, there will be no talk of 'development'."
It is a well-known fact in the universe that all the 'star tracks' and 'anchor points' in the current universe were opened up bit by bit in the boundless imaginary energy by the 'pioneering' star god Akivali thousands of years ago, who led the star train they are currently on.
Without these orbits and anchor points, it would be almost impossible for anyone to determine their goals and directions in the sea of stars, and the star core is a substance that can obscure these anchor points.
This is why, when the star core first landed on Yalilo-VI, not many people chose to stay and weather the storm with the planet. Because even if they successfully resisted the invasion of the antimatter army, they would be completely disconnected from the entire universe.
Many people who originally lived on this planet chose to flee their homeland, let alone those alien speculators who simply wanted to earn credit points?
"Yes, yes, Uncle Yang, that's actually what I wanted to say just now!"
After hearing Walter's answer, the pink-haired girl's eyes lit up, and she even puffed out her chest with pride.
Maybe she herself is not that smart, but it is obvious that having an external brain with a lot of knowledge is something to be proud of.
"So, Ji Zi...Sister, we are actually a group of chivalrous knights in the universe?" Thinking of this, Xing's eyes couldn't help but flicker like his companions.
Galaxy Baseball Man or something like that, don’t you think this is cool?
"If this makes you feel motivated, you can say so." Ji Zi slightly spread out one hand and said, "I want to leave this pioneering journey to you, Sanyueqi and Danheng."
"The purpose of the journey is also very clear: find the star core that brought disaster to this world and caused the space distortion, and bring it back to the train set - leave everything else to us."
"As for us...someone has to stay on the train, otherwise Pam will be lonely."
At this point, Ji Zi slightly grinned and showed a charming smile to the few people: "If you have no objection, you can go to Dan Heng to talk about getting ready to set off now."
"He has probably already started compiling the ecological and survey data on Yalilo-VI, right? It's always a good idea to have more information before starting the journey."
"Oh, Sister Jizi, don't worry. With me taking care of them, nothing will go wrong!" Just like a child who finally got rid of the adults, without waiting for Xing to respond, San Yueqi grabbed her wrist and ran to the other side.
Looking at the figures of the boys and girls, Walter couldn't help but sigh: "It's not our turn this time..."
"I know you really want to go, but we should always let young people walk around more and cultivate their relationships."
Ji Zi still responded to Walter with a smile, but as the oldest elder in the entire train crew, Walter's brows were still furrowed: "Maybe it's because of the passion that has not been extinguished, but this is not what I am mainly worried about..."
"For some reason, I always feel a sense of unease in my heart... Judging from the results displayed by the detector, there should be nothing on Yalilo-VI that can seriously threaten the power of Xiao Sanyue and others."
"But there is indeed a point that is difficult to prove. The detectors on the train cannot accurately detect things below a hundred meters above the ground. It is impossible that the Antimatter Corps left some terrifying biological weapons on the Yalilo-VI before evacuating?"
But if you want to reach a level that makes them feel unable to cope with it, it should at least be a doomsday beast like the one they encountered last time in the space station, which was specially created to destroy an entire planet.
"Unexplained palpitations? Well... I didn't feel anything at all, nor any indication of my fate."
Having said that, Ji Zi did not have any contemptuous thoughts. Instead, she nodded seriously and said, "However, your intuition has always been good. I guess there are indeed some dangers hidden on this planet that we don't know about."
"In that case, we two parents with children will be even busier and have to keep an eye on the whereabouts of these little guys all the time."
