Collapse Iron Cosplay Battle Damaged Star Spinal Cut - Everyone Cries to Death

A corner of the clinic.

On the hospital bed, Xing curled up in a ball.

She held the crimson earth marrow ore in her hands.

He took a bite off a piece without any expression.

"Click."

Hmm... how to describe the texture?

It felt like chewing on burning coals.

It was hard, hot, and had an indescribable metallic smell.

It doesn't taste very good...

No, this isn't food!

However, when the scalding hot ore fragments slid into my throat...

A long-lost sense of fulfillment spread throughout my body.

The crack in the bone is healing.

The broken meridians are being reconnected.

That feeling of weakness, like I was about to fall apart, is gradually fading away.

"...It smells so good."

With tears in her eyes, Xing silently gave the stone a thumbs up.

To survive, let alone stones.

Even with that so-called star core, she...

Wait, that seems like it's really inedible.

While Xing was mentally preparing herself, she was also gnawing on the rocks like an emotionless stone crusher.

"Bang!!"

The clinic's weathered door was once again flung open.

(Door: Peanuts for me)

A cold wind is blowing in from behind.

A purple figure, reeking of gunpowder, rushed in with a bang.

Seele.

The backbone of "Earthfire," the guardians of the lower levels.

"Natasha!!"

"Something's happened at the large mining area!!"

"The wanderers...fought with the mining team over a mineral vein!"

"Many people are injured...and..."

As Seele called out, she skillfully rushed to the medicine cabinet to get the first aid kit for Natasha.

But after she saw the state of the room, her movements gradually slowed down.

His gaze was fixed intently on one person.

Bronya.

The silver-haired girl, dressed in an exquisite silver-maned iron guard uniform, looked somewhat disheveled but still exuded an air of nobility.

"..."

Seele's expression changed instantly.

"brush."

Her hand instinctively went to the handle of the sickle at her waist.

"Silvermane Iron Guards?"

Seele gave a cold laugh, a strong sense of mockery washing over you.

"Oh, what a rare guest."

"How dare those high and mighty lackeys of the Great Guardians condescend to come to a garbage dump like ours?"

"What's wrong? Are you uncomfortable on the ground?"

Bronya frowned.

"Please watch your words."

"The Silvermane Iron Guards don't just sit comfortably on the ground. We're constantly fighting monsters; we're the guardians of order in Belloborg."

"order?"

These two words were like igniting a powder keg.

Seele took a step forward, her killing intent almost tangible.

"You call this order?!"

"Seal off the passage between the upper and lower levels...let us rot underground like rats..."

"This is what you call order?!"

Seele pointed to the ceiling.

"The big shots up there...are drinking coffee and watching opera in a heated room."

"And what about us?!"

"In the mining area... we risked our lives for a few broken rocks! We fought tooth and nail for a few bottles of medicine!"

"Do you know how many people have died down there?!"

Bronya's face was somewhat pale.

She wanted to argue.

"The blockade... is to stop the spread of the Rift Monsters."

"Those who build cities have their own considerations..."

"Stop trying to intimidate me with those grand principles!!"

Seele rudely interrupted her.

"You can't even see whether people are alive or dead here!"

"You have no idea... what the children in the lower classes have to pay to survive!"

"You have no idea... how desperately people here fight for a bite to eat!!"

Seele suddenly waved her hand and pointed to the clinic's door.

Every word was written in blood.

"While you're enjoying the sunshine..."

"For the people in the lower tiers... even getting enough to eat is a luxury!!!"

"..."

Bronya was speechless.

She looked into Seele's eyes, burning with anger, and at Natasha's silent demeanor.

Although she did not agree with Seele's slander against the Iron Guard.

But the reality before us...

She couldn't refute it.

This place is truly horrific.

It was so terrible that she, who had always lived in an ivory tower, felt a suffocating sense of guilt.

The air grew quiet.

Only Seele's rapid breathing remained.

Just when the tension was at its peak and the atmosphere was extremely heavy.

"Kabeng——"

A very crisp sound.

The sudden explosion in the quiet clinic was unexpected.

Followed by.

It was the sound of chewing, "crunch, crunch".

It has a good rhythm.

It's very chewy.

"..."

What's that noise?

Seele froze, then turned to look.

I saw Xing on the hospital bed in the corner, wrapped up like a mummy.

His mouth was wide open.

He held in his hand a fist-sized piece of earth marrow ore, still sparking and with edges as sharp as knives.

With a blank expression.

He took a bite.

"Click."

The stone broke.

Xing chewed twice, then swallowed hard.

"Gulp."

I swallowed it.

He even licked the stone powder off his lips, seemingly still wanting more.

"..."

"..."

Dead silence.

An even more terrifying silence than before.

"This is... an edible... edible earth marrow ore?"

Seele was completely bewildered.

She looked at the stars.

Then look at the stone in Xing's hand.

Let's look at the stars again.

"Um... I'm sorry."

Seele stammered as she spoke:

"I...I didn't know the upper levels were this difficult..."

"Have they already consumed the Earth Marrow Ore?"

in the corner.

The star (original consciousness) was chewing with gusto.

Suddenly, I felt a burning gaze fixed on me.

She paused in her movements.

He slowly turned his head.

They were met with Seele's utterly shocked expression.

"..."

The mindset of a star.

It crashed again.

Why are you looking at me?!

You can argue all you want!

Why are you looking at me?!

I don't want to eat stones either!

This thing is hard, hot, and gets stuck in your teeth!

I was forced into it!

My body is out of my control!

I……

A strong sense of shame made Xing's face turn bright red (though it wasn't obvious).

So embarrassing.

That's so embarrassing.

Performing a "swallowing stones" act in front of two beautiful girls...

"Sizzle—!!"

(Stop looking, what's so interesting? Haven't you ever seen someone eat minerals before?)

Xing let out a mournful chirp, then decided to give up and grabbed the largest piece of earth marrow.

In front of Seele and Bronya.

He turned his grief and anger into his appetite.

Gnaw harder, louder, and more...

That's brutal!
