Collapse Iron: What does it mean to broaden the fate of four people in one sentence?

The corners of her mouth curved slightly, as if to say, "That's a good answer."

She tapped her finger in the air, and a holographic projection appeared on her desk.

Various data flowed across the projection screen: the company's fleet, the company's logo, the company's headquarters, and the company's branches all over the world.

"Yaliluo-VI has now reconnected to the Star Peace Network. Ms. Bronya, you may take a look at what kind of organization the Star Peace Corporation is."

Alisa gestured for Cocolia to take a look as well.

The mother and daughter huddled in front of the projector and watched it carefully.

Star Peace Corporation can be considered the largest force in the world.

It's not "one of," it's "the largest."

The fact that the entire universe uses the credit point system is enough to explain the problem.

But companies are, after all, businesses, and businesses are profit-driven.

Bronya took a deep breath; she didn't think the current Belloberg had what the company was after.

The city has just been through a great battle; the city walls are broken, the heating systems are damaged, and even the seeds have been trampled by the pawns.

But according to information obtained from Swaro, seven hundred years ago, the company lent a batch of automated soldiers to Beloberg and then withdrew from the planet.

For seven hundred years, no one could use it; it was only with the arrival of the Demon King that those mechs were able to be reactivated.

Jade tapped her fingers lightly twice on the table.

"Ms. Bronya, seven hundred years ago the company supported a batch of automated machine soldiers in Belloberg, and I just saw that Belloberg is still using them today."

Although it was quite old, Belloborg didn't seem to have the resources to support such a large group of mechs, especially considering the dozen or so 'creation engines,' so the mechs were clearly only recently reactivated.

Her gaze fell on Bronya's face.

"Could you tell me how Belloberg activated them?"

Bronya fell silent.

Cocolia looked at her daughter with some surprise.

Right, where did those mechs come from?

But she suppressed her doubts and silently took half a step forward, shielding her daughter behind her.

Her movements were light but firm; no matter who the other person was or what they wanted to ask, she would not let her daughter face it alone.

Bronya looked at Aliza.

Alisa nodded to her, her gaze calm, as if to say, "Go ahead, it's okay."

Bronya took a deep breath, looked at the emeralds and gold dust, and after a long while, she spoke.

"Not long ago, someone took control of my body..."

Chapter 98 Bellberg will not forget to help

The atmosphere in the makeshift office was quiet. Apart from Alisa, everyone looked at Bronya with some surprise.

Cocolia looked at her daughter with even more concern, but because there were other people present, she didn't say much. She simply took another half step forward, making Bronya even more obscured.

"Therefore, it was he who gave all the people of Belleburg a clear goal and direction. Only then was Belleburg able to support your arrival."

“He didn’t save Belleberg alone; he showed us that we can save ourselves.”

Her voice was calm, but her fingers were trembling slightly, not from fear, but from nervousness.

And her gaze never left Emerald's face, as if she were observing something.

Bronya knew what she was saying, what she was doing, and what it would mean if these words got out.

But she believed in Alisa, believed that this ancestor would not harm her or the Demon King.

Because they had absolutely no reason to harm the Demon King.

Both the jadeite and gold-plated jadeite fell into deep thought after hearing this.

Emerald didn't mention the automatons that Bellober had "borrowed" seven hundred years ago; she only said "support," hoping to get some information about that person from Miss Bronya.

Support and borrow—a difference of just one word, but completely different meanings.

Borrowing means repaying, while support is given as a gift.

She used that word on purpose to see Bronya's reaction.

If Bronya corrects her, it shows that Belloberg has the confidence, and that confidence is likely related to that person.

After all, Belloberg is really 'poor' these days.

If Bronya didn't correct her, it means that Belloberg hadn't yet realized the value of those mechs.

The company has acquired many planets, but based on a bill from seven hundred years ago, it has the means to bring Belloberg under its wing.

But that person's message was far too important for the company.

The ten core members of the company, including Diamond, used the "foundation" of their command powers, which were nothing more than "fragments" "carved out" by those with unwavering will when Amber King struck his hammer.

And that one, was given to him by the Amber King by breaking off an entire stone from His divine body, so how great must His power be?

There has never been such a precedent since the company was founded.

It's just a trivial bill, but it might get you a message from that person and leave a good impression on them.

The company will calculate the costs of this transaction.

"Miss Bronya, do you know his name?"

The gold nugget, which had been silent all along, finally spoke.

Bronya glanced at him and then shook her head.

"He never mentioned his own name. After all, he initially treated it all as a game, but later... I don't know why, he seemed to realize that it wasn't a game."

But he never mentioned his own name. All I know is that he called himself the 'Demon King.'

Sand Gold remained silent for a moment, then exchanged a glance with Jade.

Controlling people's bodies and treating it all as a game...

Judging from this, it seems that the Amber King might not be the only deity to suffer a fate...

"Demon King..."

He repeated the word, his lips twitching slightly.

I guess I was thinking, what kind of person would give themselves such a cringeworthy name?

Jade's fingers tapped unconsciously on the table.

Both jade and gold dust fell into deep thought.

Bronya didn't disturb them. She turned to look at Alisa, her eyes saying, "Is it really okay to tell them the Demon King's information so easily?"

Alisa knew what she was thinking and smiled.

Not long ago, the Amber King personally told her, "There is no need to hide his identity."

But the Amber King seemed to be smiling the whole time. Although Alisa didn't know how a stone like the Amber King could smile, her feeling at the time was that the Amber King was always smiling.

She didn't care about this issue then, or even now, because she was quite excited to see the Amber King in person.

Although this deity she worshipped was somewhat different from her impression of him, lacking a certain solemnity and possessing a touch more...joy?

Although the King of Amber has never spoken to mortals throughout history...

"Don't worry."

Alisa spoke softly, in a voice only the two of them could hear.

"This means preservation. Or rather, the Amber King wants to bring him to the forefront."

Bronya breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

The gods had their reasons for wanting to bring the demon king to the forefront; after all, they had witnessed the scene firsthand.

Although it is unknown what it meant for the Amber King to break off a stone from his shoulder and hand it to the Demon King, it is obvious that a god bestowing a part of his divine body upon a mortal is a sign of the god's high regard for that person.

Since Cunhu values ​​the Demon King, he certainly wouldn't harm him.

After a long while, the jade spoke again.

“Ms. Bronya, the company will rebuild Belloberg’s home, and all expenses incurred will be covered by the company.”

Her voice was gentle, but every word was emphasized.

"After all, the invasion of Belleberg by the antimatter army is a dereliction of duty on the part of the company."

Cocolia's brow furrowed even more.

The company's negligence? Although this company is the largest force in the world, does it have a monopoly?

impossible.

Furthermore, Belloberg disconnected the interstellar peace network seven hundred years ago. The company doesn't even know if there are still people on this planet. How can it be considered dereliction of duty?

But Jade spoke as if it were a matter of course, as if it were something perfectly natural.

Bronya remained silent for a moment.

She didn't know why Jade would use such a flimsy reason, but she didn't press the matter.

Asking some questions only makes you passive.

She looked into Emerald's gentle yet shrewd eyes, into Sandstone's calm yet calculating face, and into the company employees outside the window who were helping the people of Beloborg rebuild their homes.

Then she spoke.

“Ms. Emerald, Belloberg does not need charity.”

Emerald raised her eyebrows slightly.

“But Belloberg accepted the help.”

Bronya's voice was calm.

“We would be honored if the company would be willing to help Belloberg as a friend. If the company wants to use this money to buy anything….”

She paused for a moment,

“Belloberg has nothing to sell.”

There was a moment of silence in the office.

Then Jade laughed, not in a polite, perfunctory way, but because she genuinely found it funny.

“Miss Bronya, you and that Demon King really look alike.”

Bronya paused for a moment.

"Not like him."

Jade stood up and walked to the window.

"He wants you to become the kind of person he wants you to be."

Outside the window, the sunlight was just right.

The children chased after Wang Zhizhi's bucket in the square. The lid of Wang Zhizhi's bucket was lifted, and it was filled with all sorts of trinkets.

It ran ahead, the children chased after it, and Xing chased after it too, holding the red sausage in its hand and shouting, "Let me touch your bucket lid."

Emerald looked out the window, a slight smile playing on her lips.

“Ms. Bronya, the company will help Belloberg rebuild his home as a friend. All expenses will be borne by the company, without any conditions attached.”

She turned and looked at Bronya.

"This is the company's scapegoating!"

Bronya looked at her and remained silent for a long time.

There is no such thing as a free lunch.

The company's willingness to cover all expenses wasn't out of kindness, but because they had bigger motives.

Bronya understood this.
