"Himeko... why is she here too? She asked us to go to the rock wall behind Rivet Town..."

 San Yueqi frowned, with a hint of confusion in his tone.

 Bai Qiong's face became even more serious, and he whispered: "Topa also asked us to go there, saying that there was a 'good show' and he wanted us to watch it..."

 The two looked at each other, and at the same time, they felt an ominous premonition.

 "Oh no, these two groups are not really going to fight, right?" There was a hint of anxiety in March Seven's voice.

 Bai Qiong frowned, a look of uneasiness appearing on his face.

 In the original plot, no matter what happened, it was just a small fight, beating up the company's employees and confronting Topar. Just when the situation was out of control, Bronya appeared and persuaded Topar...

 But according to the current development of things, I am afraid that there will not be such an easy ending...

 "There is no time to lose, let's go over there now."

 Bai Qiong said decisively, grabbed San Yueqi's hand and walked quickly towards the door.

 After being dragged like this by him, San Yue Qi's legs were still a little weak, and a blush appeared on her face. She muttered softly: "Slow down... My legs are still a little weak."

 At this moment, Clara hurriedly followed, holding Bai Qiong's other hand with her little hand, with a hint of nervousness and worry in her eyes.

 "Well...Clara wants to go too, and Mr. Swarlow is there too!"

 Bai Qiong looked down at her and rejected her seriously, "No, Clara, you stay here..."

 "But……"

 "Don't worry, I will ensure Mr. Swarlow's safety."

 Clara wanted to say something else but was interrupted by Bai Qiong.

 "I swear!"

 Bai Qiong took Clara's hand and looked at her sincerely.

 San Yue Qi also said at this time, "Clara, just wait here, your brother and sister will come back with good news."

 "Well... well, I wish you all a safe journey. I don't know why, but I feel a little... uncomfortable when I walk."

 Clara trembled, let go of Bai Qiong, and timidly retreated back to her chair and sat down.

 Bai Qiong no longer hesitated, and together with San Yue Qi, he quickly walked through the corridor and headed towards Rivet Town...

 There was an oppressive silence in the air, as if even the sound of the wind and snow was suppressed by some invisible force.

 Occasionally, the creaking sound of metal pipes being hit by wind and snow could be heard, like some kind of ominous omen, and it seemed particularly harsh in the silence.

Chapter 20 Robots and Creation Engines

 On the snow outside Rivet Town, the cold wind howled, rolling up layers of snow and fog. The footsteps of Ji Zi and Beloberg echoed in the snow.

 Bronya walked in front, her eyes scanning the surroundings, observing every shadow vigilantly.

 Suddenly, her sight fixed on a tall mechanical figure not far away.

 "Mr. Schwaro!"

 Bronya exclaimed, "Why are you here? Did Topa and company hurt you?"

 Obviously, she was very surprised by Swarovski's appearance.

 "You are finally here. I have been waiting for you here for a long time. The system functions normally. I have not had any conflict with the company's messenger."

 A faint red light flickered in Swarlow's mechanical eyes, and his voice was low and calm.

 Bronya breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good... I thought Topa was controlling you and was going to fight you. Where is she now?"

 "Topa is ahead. She could have used means to force me to obey, but she didn't."

 Swarlow's mechanical body turned slightly and pointed deep into the factory.

 Bronya's eyes flashed with confusion, "Why? Isn't she here to carry out the company's orders?"

 "In her opinion, incorporating Belloberg into the company is the only way to 'preserve' it. Although I hold a different view, it is difficult to find evidence to refute it with the current computing power."

 He paused, red light flashing in his mechanical eyes, "You go ahead. Please be careful, she is a scary woman."

 There was a hint of mixed emotions in Swarovski's voice.

 Bronya nodded and said firmly, "Okay, Mr. Swarovski, we will be careful."

 Jizi and Beloberg's people followed Swarovski's instructions and found where Topa was. After taking an old elevator to the platform, a smell of rusty metal hit them in the face.

 Dim light poured down from the cracks in the broken ceiling, reflecting the dust floating in the air, as if a veil covered the entire space.

 Broken parts and messy boxes were scattered on the ground, some of which were covered with thick dust, while others were shining with a faint metallic luster.

 The walls were covered with mottled rust and cracks, and occasionally a few lines of blurry data text could be seen, like some kind of ancient instructions that no one could decipher.

 Topa stood in the center of the field, his hands in his uniform pockets, his mouth raised with his signature smile on his face.

 Topa's eyes swept across Bronya, and finally stopped at the red-haired woman beside her who was wearing a black windbreaker and a white long skirt.

 "Eh? The lady next to Miss Bronya... looks familiar?"

 Topa tilted his head slightly, his tone tentative.

 "Nice to meet you, Miss Toppa."

 Jizi smiled slightly, her voice gentle but powerful, "I am Jizi, the navigator of the Star Train."

 Topa's eyes lit up, and his tone was filled with surprise. "Oh, now I remember, you are the famous Ms. Ji Zi! I have several colleagues who admire you so much that they dream of chatting with you!"

 "Ms. Toppa, judging from the tone of your greeting, you should be aware of the current situation, right?"

 Jizi smiled faintly and looked Topa up and down with a scrutinizing look in her eyes.

 "Of course, the deadline has passed, but the Great Guardian girl has not signed the contract yet. The resistance behind this can be guessed with a little thought."

 Topa shrugged, his tone light.

 Ji Zi's voice was still calm, but there was a little more determination in her tone: "Please don't get me wrong, we have no intention of going against the company and the board of directors. It just so happens that there are friends we cherish on the planet Yalilo-VI."

 She paused, looked directly at Topa, and continued, "To do nothing, to say nothing, and to just watch them sign an unequal contract - that's not the style of Nameless Guest."

 Bronya looked at Himeko uneasily and whispered, "Um... Ms. Himeko, should we try to negotiate with her? If we continue to talk like this..."

 Ji Zi shook her head slightly, with a hint of certainty in her tone: "Don't bother with that, Miss Great Guardian. She decided what to do ten minutes ago."

 Topa was stunned for a moment, then showed an expression of admiration: "As expected of you, he is the number one person in the train team. You have extraordinary insight!"

 A smile appeared on her lips, and there was a hint of joking in her words: "You are right. Many times, different positions do not represent who is right or wrong - but in order to make the work move forward and not get stuck, there is often only one way..."

 As Topa's voice fell, a low roar suddenly came from the snow in the distance, and even the earth began to tremble.

 "What...what happened? What happened?!"

 Bronya's expression suddenly changed and her voice began to become nervous.

 "If you want to know, I'll tell you - the request for permission to launch a special attack on the members of the Star Train has been approved!"

 Topa's smile gradually turned cold, and there was unstoppable confidence in his eyes.

 Countless sharp-edged mechas rose from the ground, with red light flashing in their cold mechanical eyes, like a group of ferocious beasts ready to attack.

 Topa's voice was filled with a hint of pride. "Feel it. This is the company's technology. Although I am very curious about how Beloberg's ancestors could resist the impact of the antimatter army without these mechas. But being able to preserve them completely also gives me a bargain. They all have full combat effectiveness!"

 "It looks like you're going to drive Belloberg to his death, Topa!"

 Bronya's face turned livid, and her voice was filled with anger.

 "You originally had the right to choose, but you listened to the slander of some people and missed the deadline. There is nothing I can do. My project also has a time limit."

 Topa shrugged, with a hint of helplessness in his tone.

 "In that case, let me show you how we, the Beloberg people, managed to survive the disaster through our own efforts."

 There was a gleam of determination in Bronya's eyes, and a firmness in her voice.

 The ground in the distance suddenly began to shake, and the sound was no less powerful than that of the company's black mass of mechas.

 A huge mechanical giant slowly rose up, emitting a low humming sound.

 It was a huge machine made up of countless gears and pipes, like a moving fortress.

 "What is this huge, shattered thing...?"

 Topa's eyes gradually became surprised.

 "Ms. Topa, I know you've done a lot of research before - I want to know if there's any record of the 'Creation Engine' in your files?"

 Bronya's voice was filled with pride for Beloberg's past.

Chapter 21: Where have you two been?

 null

Chapter 22: What kind of person is this?

 Bronya did not flinch at Topa's threats, nor was she shaken by her actions.

 She took a deep breath, and the cool air filled her chest, as if injecting strength into her determination.

 Bronya's eyes were fixed on Topa as she began her final exhortation, her tone carrying a hint of sadness and a hint of hope.

 "Ms. Topa, perhaps you don't understand that the biggest difference between us and your company is that... the Creation Engine was designed not just as a weapon of war..."

 Bronya's voice echoed across the snowy plain, as if she wanted to carve every word into the land.

 "It is also the guarantee for rebuilding Beloberg in the future! It carries the hope of all of us and is the foundation for our survival in this cold land!"

 She turned around and faced the people of Beloberg who had gathered behind her. Her eyes swept over every face: Xi'er, Jeppard, Pera...

 Those faces eroded by wind and snow are full of determination and expectation.

 Her voice became louder and more powerful, with an irresistible appeal.

 "I gathered everyone here not only to fight against foreign enemies, but also to tell Miss Toppa and those skeptical eyes! We, the Beloberg people, want to protect this freedom! We must take action and prove to everyone that we have the will and ability to control our own destiny!"

 Bronya's voice was like a fire, igniting the hearts of everyone present.

 The Beloberg soldiers straightened their chests, gripped their weapons tightly, and their eyes were burning with flames.

 Their breath condensed into white mist in the cold air, as if adding a layer of gauze to the snowy field.

 Topa listened to Bronya's speech quietly, and the expression on his face gradually became complicated.

 "Miss Great Guardian, you don't know me either."

 Topa's voice was low, with a hint of barely perceptible envy, "You are an outstanding leader. If my hometown also had a leader like this... perhaps the ending would be different."

 There was a hint of sadness in her voice, like an echo from a distant memory.

 Her eyes dropped slightly, as if she was recalling something, but soon she raised her head again, and the fragility in her eyes was replaced by determination.

 "But now, I have become the hope of countless people on my home planet. I carry their expectations, and I also have reasons why I cannot back down."

 Topa's voice became firm again, as if he had been injected with strength.

 She raised her head and looked sharply at Bronya, Bai Qiong and Ji Zi, with a hint of apology in her tone, but also with determination.

 "I'm sorry, everyone. For the sake of my mission, I must persevere."

 Bai Qiong looked at the determination in Topa's eyes and felt powerless in his heart.

 He knew that Topaz and Bronya each had their own positions and reasons, and neither was wrong, but their different positions made conflict inevitable.

 He wanted to stop the fight, but he felt as if he was in the center of a vortex, unable to break free.

 Just when he felt helpless, a cold voice suddenly sounded in his mind. It was a prompt from the system of the other world.

 "Ding!"

 [Why doesn't the host consider this magical system? You have no other choice. ]

 [We only need to make a small sacrifice to exchange for peace on both planets, so why not do it? ]

 [A mere 50% of the corruption value, the requirement for this mission is already very low...]
