Belleburg in the early morning should have been peaceful and serene.

But today, the streets are filled with a chilling, desolate atmosphere.

"Excuse me, gentlemen, please wait a moment."

A clear, cool female voice rang out in the empty square.

Bronya Rand.

The Silvermane Iron Guard Commander, the successor to the next Great Guardian, stood with his arms crossed at the end of the street.

And behind her.

It was three complete square formations of Silvermane Iron Guards, fully armed.

The dark muzzles of guns and the cold shields formed an insurmountable steel wall, completely surrounding the three people on the Starry Sky Train.

"You are suspected of colluding with the separatists and attempting to overthrow Belloberg! Lay down your weapons and surrender immediately! Otherwise, we will take coercive measures!"

"the wanted?!"

On March 7th, I almost jumped up, and the pink hair on my head shook three times.

"Yesterday they called us honored guests, and today they're acting like wanted criminals?! This is utterly unreasonable!"

Bronya ignored her protest.

"That's an order."

She raised her hand.

"Click".

All the guards raised their guns simultaneously, the sound of them cocking them was uniform and chilling.

"Don't act impulsively."

Dan Heng pressed down on March 7's shoulder, his eyes frighteningly calm.

"To fabricate a charge against someone."

Dan Heng gripped his spear tightly, his eyes cold.

"I knew it... that Great Guardian was definitely up to no good."

Xing stood between the two.

She did not speak.

She simply looked at Bronya quietly, then at the intersection heavily guarded by the Iron Guards.

That direction...

It is the direction leading to the edge passage.

It is also the entrance to the Rift.

"Tsk... (Are we going over there?)"

Xing tugged at Dan Heng's sleeve and pointed to the intersection.

Danheng nodded: "That's the only opening. But..."

He looked at the row of seemingly indestructible shield walls, his brow furrowing even more deeply.

"The shield formation is too thick; without heavy firepower, it will be difficult to break through."

"And once we get bogged down..."

"Tsk. (Get out of the way.)"

Xing pushed March 7th behind him and took a step forward.

"Star? What are you going to do?" March 7th hadn't reacted yet.

next second.

"boom!!"

The hard stone floor beneath Xing's feet shattered instantly!

He was just so straight and domineering...

It charged straight at the wall of steel shields!

"Thump—!!!"

A loud bang.

The burly, fully armed guard, who was 1.9 meters tall, didn't even have time to scream.

The entire person, along with the shield that was half a person's height, was directly struck by a terrifying, monstrous force...

He was sent flying!

"Clang!"

The breach has been created.

"..."

The entire room fell silent.

Bronya's hand holding the gun froze.

She stared incredulously at the girl standing at the gap.

That girl...

Unharmed?

No.

They were not completely unharmed.

Xing swayed her shoulders.

The light blue coat that Danheng gave her yesterday had been reduced to rags in the impact.

It revealed the area below...

The shoulder was already torn open and bleeding profusely.

My skin was smashed.

His pale shoulder blades were exposed, with even a few metal fragments of shields embedded in them.

Dark golden blood flowed down his arm and dripped onto the ground.

"Hiss... (It's a bit hard.)"

Xing frowned.

She reached out and, expressionless, removed the metal pieces embedded in the bone...

I pried it out.

"bite."

A piece of iron, stained with blood and flesh, fell to the ground.

then.

She turned around and looked at San Yueqi and Dan Heng, who were already terrified.

He tilted his head.

There was a hint of confusion in his eyes... "What are you all standing there for? Let's go!"

"Ahhhhhh!!!!"

March 7th let out an even more piercing scream than yesterday.

She rushed over like a madwoman, staring at Xing's bloodied and mangled shoulder, her hands trembling as if she had Parkinson's disease.

"Blood! It's all blood!!"

"Your shoulder...the flesh is all raw!!"

"Waaaaah... How could you ram your body into a shield?! Are you stupid?!"

"Does it hurt...? It must hurt terribly..."

March 7th cried so hard she could barely breathe. She wanted to touch him, but dared not, and could only hold tightly to Xing's other hand.

Dan Heng also rushed over.

His face was darker than the bottom of a pot.

"Nonsense!!"

Dan Heng grabbed Xing's shoulder, his eyes fierce as if he wanted to devour him.

"Who told you to do this?!"

"That's a steel shield! You're just going to ram it with your bare flesh?!"

"Don't you want your body anymore?!"

"Let's go! To the clinic! Now!"

Without saying a word, Dan Heng turned around and was about to carry Xing on his back.

"What breakout... what rift... never mind!"

"Treat the injury first!!"

star:"……"

She was baffled by the two people's reactions.

No.

What are you all talking about?

pain?

It doesn't hurt.

It was a bit shaky, and I felt a slight numbness.

and……

Xing glanced at her shoulder.

The rolled-up flesh was already writhing, and the golden blood was beginning to congeal.

The wound will heal in no more than two minutes.

Which clinic should I go to?

Isn't that a waste of time?

"Sizzle... (I'm not going.)"

Xing struggled to get off Danheng's back.

"Don't move!!"

Dan Heng roared and pressed her down even tighter.

"If you move again, I'll tie you up!"

star:"?"

What's wrong with this person?

Has the IQ been infected by March 7th?

I already said I'm not in pain, and the road is open. If I don't run now, am I just waiting to be caught and go back to jail?

"Screech! (Let me go!)"

Xing was getting a little anxious.

She looked at the Iron Guards in the distance, who had already reacted and were regrouping.

If we don't leave now, it will be too late!

Why did these two teammates let us down at such a crucial moment?!

"I won't let go!"

Dan Heng gritted his teeth, his eyes reddening.

"I'd rather be arrested... than watch you... tear yourself apart, bit by bit!"

Xing was helpless.

She sighed.

It seems... that's the only way.

"collapse!"

She exerted a sudden force.

"Click."

The perfectly intact left shoulder joint that Dan Heng was holding down...

It dislocated on its own again.

Like a slippery eel, it slipped out of Dan Heng's hand in an instant.

"Star?!" Dan Heng turned around in horror as his hand went empty.

The star had already fallen to the ground.

Both of her arms hung limply at her sides (one was smashed and the other had just been dislocated).

But she acted as if nothing had happened, using her "broken" shoulder to support March 7th's back.

He then bumped Danheng's chest with his "dislocated" shoulder.

His eyes were firm.

Directly pointing at the entrance to the rift.

The meaning is obvious:

Stop talking nonsense.

Run!

If I don't run now, my arm will have been torn for nothing.

Seeing her in such a miserable state, March 7th's tears flowed even more fiercely.

"Waaaah... I won't run away... I'm going to take you to see a doctor..."

"Sizzle—!!"

She was really angry.

Why are these two so slow and indecisive!

I already told you I'm fine!

To prove that he was alright.

She even shrugged her shoulders in front of the two of them.

"Click."

They put that dislocated left shoulder back on...

They've been taken back.

Apart from being a little paler, there was nothing wrong with her.

"..."

Danheng and March 7th were completely speechless.

They looked at the stars.

Looking at this girl covered in blood, with crippled arms (in their eyes), yet still stubbornly wanting to send them away.

An indescribable bitterness and pain stuck in my throat.

"……Walk."

Danheng closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

He gripped the spear tightly again.

This time, however, the veins on the back of his hand bulged.

"Let's go."

He spoke to March 7th in a hoarse voice.

"Don't let her down... with all these injuries."

"Once we get out..."

Danheng turned around and gave Xing a deep look.

"...I will definitely, properly... cure this bad habit of yours."

Xing blinked.

治?

What is being treated?

Am I sick?

I'm perfectly healthy.

Aren't you two the ones who're sick?

She doesn't understand.

But seeing that the two of them were finally willing to move, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Finally... they were coaxed away.

Leading this team is exhausting.

Next time, it would be faster to just knock them out and carry them away.

Xing silently made plans in her mind.

then.

She dragged her still-bleeding right arm and followed.

As for Bronya's complicated gaze behind them, and the terrified looks in the eyes of the Iron Guards.

She didn't care at all.

after all.

For a hardcore player who just wants to speedrun through the story.
