People are working on collapsing iron, and one concept-level capability is developed every month.

Lan Ling didn't hesitate either. She put her arm around Lin Yinzhou's shoulder and instantly transformed into a streak of green light, disappearing into the deep cave.

Only Sambo, who had been transformed into a woman, remained, bewildered in the wind.

............

Before long, Lin Yinzhou arrived in the lower city and couldn't help but laugh out loud when he looked at the dark dome.

Sambo Koski, regarding his true identity, many in the community speculate that he is the "Pleasure" Messenger, but there has been no concrete evidence. However, his identity as the "Masked Fool" has been confirmed.

He has to consider the consequences when he's playing pranks on others, but when it comes to playing pranks on "The Masked Fool"...

"Aha~~"

Lin Yinzhou chuckled somewhat strangely.

At this moment, he regretted not bringing Yinhuang with him. If he had let Yinhuang give Old Sangbo another go when he left, it would have been even more fun.

After laughing for a while, Lin Yinzhou began to consider serious matters.

He looked around and realized that Old Sambo hadn't lied; this really was a mining area.

He stroked his chin for a moment, then took the initiative to carry Bronya, who was still unconscious, on his back. He then randomly chose a direction and started walking.

"Let's go, let's take a look around first."

With Bronya included, the group of six made steady progress along the main road in the mining area.

If you want to know what's so great about ducks, their bottoms are a treasure.

As Lin Yinzhou walked, he looked at the scenery in the mining area while also stroking Bronya's little bottom.

As he was pondering, Lin Yinzhou suddenly stopped.

'Wait, I have a feeling I've fallen for a trap?'

Lin Yinzhou frowned, and his fingers unconsciously tightened, sinking deeply into the two soft mounds.

Thinking about it carefully, isn't Cocolia a bit too reckless?

Although he intentionally didn't show his full strength to lure Cocolia into making a move, he still came in a Starship. Couldn't Cocolia have thought things through a bit more?

Furthermore, facing an alien visitor of unknown strength, Cocolia just put her daughter on the line.

It's true that Cocolia was corrupted by the "Star Core," but her brain shouldn't be completely destroyed yet, right?

And Sambo's timing was also quite opportune. He didn't appear earlier or later; he just showed up right after Sambo kidnapped Bronya and even pinpointed their location precisely.

"His~~"

Damn it.

Cocolia isn't hedging her bets, is she?

If Bronya is handed over to them willingly, and they are truly benevolent people, they might actually help Bronya find the truth, overthrow her rule, thwart her plans, and help Bronya reclaim Arillow VI.

Even if we bet wrong, it doesn't matter, since the so-called "New World" plan is about to be implemented.

If the "New World" is successful, she and Bronya will reunite in the New World, while these swindlers will naturally be torn to pieces in the "New World".

If the "New World" fails, that's fine too; everyone will perish with it, so it doesn't matter whether they are good or bad.

"His~~"

That can't be the case, can it?

Even though Cocolia has been corrupted by the "Star Core," her mind is still so sharp?

For a moment, Lin Yinzhou was hesitant, unable to guess whether Cocolia had done it intentionally or by accident.

"Um~"

Just then, Bronya finally woke up.

She had just woken up and was not yet fully conscious when she felt a dull pain in her buttocks.

Lin Yinzhou appropriately reduced the pressure on his ten fingers.

Forget it, whether she did it intentionally or by accident, what he's going to do won't change.

He glanced sideways at Bronya, who was gradually waking up, and said calmly.

"You're awake. Your mom doesn't want you anymore. We're already in the lower city."

"?!!"

Bronya woke up abruptly, not even caring about the large hands on her buttocks, and hurriedly asked.

"What did you say?! How could Mother abandon me?! You're the one who kidnapped me! And why are we in the Lower City?!"

In the end, Bronya couldn't help but circle around four times.

The sky was dim, the cliffs were sheer, and in the distance, the earth marrow ore emitted a bright yellow light.

Without a doubt, this is a view that can only be found in the downtown area.

Lin Yinzhou explained as he walked.

"In my hometown, there's an old saying: 'A prime minister must rise from the ranks of the local government, and a valiant general must emerge from the ranks of the soldiers.' This means that if you want to become a high-ranking official, you must have basic experience and understand the hardships of the people. If you want to become the next 'Great Guardian,' you can't just stay in the Upper City forever; you also need to come and see the Lower City. After all... they are also citizens, aren't they?"

"..."

Bronya quieted down.

He could understand Lin Yinzhou's meaning, and knew that what he said was right, but...

Bronya gritted her teeth, somewhat embarrassed and annoyed.

"Mr. Lin, please put me down! I'm awake! I can walk by myself!"

"Oh~"

Lin Yinzhou threw Bronya to the ground without any hesitation.

Bronya steadied herself, biting her lip, and angrily straightened her military uniform, especially around her hips. Besides the outer uniform, her undergarments and black bodysuit were all misaligned!

Lin Yinzhou also stopped and waited patiently for Bronya. But just then, Lin Yinzhou's eyes flickered and he suddenly looked up at the minecart track above.

On the tracks stood a slender, graceful figure...

-----------------------------------

Three more chapters, around 6 AM.

Volume 1: Chapter 63, Lose You, Duck Duck

Lin Yinzhou took a closer look and exclaimed, "Wow, what a coincidence!"

He had just met Old Sambo, and then he met Seele No Name. They were all rushing to him. Was he just lucky, or was it... fate?

"who are you?"

In the vast, empty mining area, Seele's voice echoed repeatedly, layer upon layer.

Lin Yinzhou gestured, signaling the camera robot to quickly take more photos of Seele, while he himself turned to look at Bronya.

“Miss Bronya, I’ve found your guide.”

"kindness?"

Bronya looked at Lin Yinzhou, puzzled.

"?!!"

The next moment, Lin Yinzhou in front of her suddenly disappeared, and before she could react, she was already in the air.

"Damn you!"

Lin Yinzhou grabbed Bronya by the waist and, with a standard javelin-throwing motion, hurled Bronya toward Seele.

"?!!!"

Bronya gripped her spear tightly, her eyes filled with panic.

The feeling of weightlessness and the whistling wind in her ears made her want to scream, but remembering the upbringing she had received, she forcibly suppressed the scream in her throat.

At the same time, seeing the unfamiliar girl flying rapidly towards her, Seele unconsciously frowned.

This is no longer a question of whether she wants to or not; it's that if she doesn't avoid it, she'll definitely get bumped into!

But if she avoids it, the strange girl's head will hit the earth marrow ore.

After a moment's hesitation, Seele shoved the scythe in her hand into the minecart beside her, then bent her knees and stepped forward.

"Bang---"

Xi'er was hit and felt a little suffocated, almost losing all the strength she had gathered.

She took a deep breath, forced herself to gather her strength, and, holding the unfamiliar silver-haired girl, made a sudden turn in mid-air, returning to the orbit.

Seele put down the strange girl and was about to argue with the strangely dressed guys opposite her when she found that they had disappeared, leaving only one sentence echoing in the empty mining area.

"Miss Bronya, before you leave, let me give you two reminders."

"Star core!"

"And...Swarovski!"

After the echo faded, Seele and Bronya looked at each other in bewilderment.

After staring at each other for a while, Seele asked somewhat impatiently.

"Who are they? And who are you? You're not from the Lower City, are you? What are you doing here in the Lower City?"

"..."

After a moment of silence, Bronya explained in turn, "They are... visitors from outer space. I am Bronya Rand, a member of the 'Silvermane Iron Guard'..."

"Wait? Rand?!"

Seele frowned and asked in an unfriendly tone, "Who is Cocolia Rand to you?"

"Her is my mother."

"So you're the next 'Great Guardian'?"

"......kindness."

Seele fell silent, and the atmosphere between them instantly became deathly still.

Bronya subconsciously looked up, but she didn't know how to describe the girl's expression. It was a complex expression she had never seen before... no, it should be described as a complicated expression, with many emotions changing on her face, like the various colors of light shining in through a rose window.

............

While Bronya and Seele were still struggling against each other on the minecart tracks high up, Lin Yinzhou and his group had already found the road out of the mining area and onto "Rock Town" thanks to Lanling's exaggerated speed.

Upon arriving at the Rocky Formation, Lin Yinzhou ignored the curious gazes of the locals and went straight to the "Goethe Hotel" in the lower city to check in.

The prerequisites have been met. Cocolia has taken the initiative to make a move against him, and Bronya has also been lured to the lower city to pursue the truth.

Now, it's time to get down to business.

He sat on the edge of the bed, took out the sword box, and took out a "Dream Bubble" from the sword box.

That's right, this "Dream Bubble," like the other odds and ends he had, was also obtained through Lao Jing's channels.

However, unlike ordinary "dream bubbles", this is an editable "blank dream bubble" in which one's own memories can be copied.

His purpose in wanting this "dream bubble" was very simple: it was for the songs in his own mind.

Admittedly, with composers and lyricists from "Star Entertainment," his idols should not lack songs. Of course, they will not lack ordinary songs. If they want top-notch songs, they will have to wait, since the inspiration of composers and lyricists is not always available.

In addition, the Star Goddesses like Liuli, Hupo, and Lanling are different. Not only do they have lofty ambitions, but they also have great potential. If they have some opportunities in the future, they have a very high chance of becoming Commanders.

Therefore, he was willing to provide resources to Liuli and the others, and planned to form a deeper bond with them.

To connect more deeply with an "idol," besides emotional factors, the most important thing is undoubtedly those songs.

He wanted to personally handle Ruri and the others' debut song and all their future songs, but with Ruri and the others about to debut, it was definitely too late to learn them now.

After thinking it over, he decided to use the songs in his head to tide him over for now.

But there's a problem: he doesn't understand music, so he can't easily extract things from his mind like those plagiarists.

Fortunately, the world of Collapse Iron has advanced technology. With the help of this "Blank Dream Bubble," he can directly copy the songs in his head into it. Of course, he must be careful not to copy other memories that should not be copied into it.
