She was slandering Bronya in her heart, but Xier felt that the more such things happened, the better.

In this regard, Bronya had better continue to be a fool.

She chose option No. [-] without hesitation. The options on the light screen faded and the color returned to the screen——

Xi'er in the picture was obviously stunned, a trace of doubt flashed across her face, and then she said without hesitation:

"For Ron, [Earthfire] is willing to pay more than you think."

"Then you agree? Very good, remember your promise."

Bronya turned around and left haughtily, without even looking at Ron.

Ron stood aside and watched the conversation between the two, and the smile on his face faded slightly.

The picture on the light screen disappeared, and a new note appeared on it:

[Ron is no longer Bronya's bodyguard, so your pressure value is reduced by 20. 】

[You use this matter to invite Ron again, hoping that he will join the Earth Fire. 】

[But Ron shook his head and said that he would have to think about it for a while, and he couldn't make a choice so quickly. 】

[Because Ron did not choose to join your camp, your stress value increases by 20, and your current stress value is 20/100. 】

[The next day, you take Ron with you again and run between the Mechanical Settlement and Panyan Town...]

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

[Bronya abandoned you, your favorability towards Bronya has decreased, and your loyalty to Bronya has decreased. 】

[Xie'er has been pestering you, trying to let you see her determination. 】

[The next day, she worked all day trying to convince Swaro and the Wanderers, but ultimately failed.Your favorability towards her increases. 】

[On the third day, she continued to the mechanical settlement...but the persuasion failed. 】

[On the fourth day, she was not discouraged and tried to mediate among everyone... but still failed. 】

[On the fifth day, because of her efforts, Clara from the Mechanical Community had some intentions, but Swaro kept clearly refusing. 】

[You think Xier is not far away from success. 】

[You are somewhat looking forward to this day coming. 】

[On the sixth day, she successfully convinced Swaro and Clara. Now, the Mechanical Settlement and the surrounding wanderer camps have agreed to cooperate with Earth Fire and unite all the power of the lower area to save the lower area. 】

[After six days, Xi'er's hard work and determination have infected you. Your favorability towards her has increased significantly, while your favorability towards Bronya has dropped slightly. 】

[Now, your favorability towards Xier is - 70]

[The favorability of Bronya is - 45]

It turns out that Yaya didn't pay much attention to me at the beginning... But it makes sense. After all, in this simulation, I had just become a Yaya guard and was taken away by Xi'er. In order to cooperate with Dihuo, It's only natural that Yaya is willing to let go.

Ron rubbed his chin, feeling that Xie'er's performance was a bit special.

I really didn’t expect that Xi’er would take me so seriously... Oh, no, Xi’er wanted to bridge the gap between the upper and lower classes, so she agreed to Bronya’s request. In fact, she didn’t care. deficit.

In other words, she prostituted herself from Bronya for free - why does this sound weird?

Ron shrugged, not paying much attention to this matter, and continued to focus on the light screen in front of him.

The text on the light screen gradually disappeared, and a new picture began to emerge:

"I did it, Ron."

Xier looked at Ron with a tired face, but she couldn't hide the excitement in her eyes:

"Five days... It only took me five days to successfully integrate the two major forces in the lower district."

"The status quo in the Lower Zone will change from this moment on!"

The screen faded and a new note began to appear:

[On the seventh day, due to the cooperation between Earth Fire and the Mechanical Community, the excluded wanderers poured into Panyan Town. 】

[But it is a pity that the urban carrying capacity of Panyan Town is far insufficient, and the homeless people have a fierce conflict with the aboriginal people of Panyan Town——]

[The wanderers caused a huge commotion and looted food in Panyan Town. 】

[The townspeople of Panyan Town accused the wanderers of seriously intruding on their lives and decided to take up the mining shovel in revenge. 】

[The conflict intensified, and in just a few hours, it turned from a verbal spat to a bloody conflict. 】

[As the current leader of Earth Fire and the biggest promoter of cooperation between the Mechanical Settlement and Earth Fire Organization, Xier shouldered the responsibility of handling this matter. 】

[You accompanied Xier to the location of the conflict——]

The text on the light screen faded away, and a new picture emerged:

At the intersection from Panyan Town to the large mining area, two groups of people were confronting each other aggressively, holding sharp mining shovels in their hands. The conflict was about to break out.

Their bodies were covered with bruises, and some people had fallen on the ground. Blood gurgled out from their wounds, gradually dyeing the ground red.

Even though the situation has become so tragic, they have no intention of stopping and are still confronting each other here, as if they will not stop until they kill all the other parties.

"Stop for me!"

Xi'er walked quickly with a cold face, a hint of gloom in her eyebrows.

Everyone turned around and saw Xi'er approaching menacingly. Some people seemed to have loosened the mining shovels in their hands, subconsciously wanting to obey Xi'er's orders, but no one actually put down the weapons in their hands and stepped aside.

This conflict is about their lives.

No one will actually lay down their weapons.

"You still won't give up? Do you really want to kill someone?!"

Xier frowned and her tone became more fierce:

"Although [Ground Fire]'s mission is to make our miners in the lower areas live a better life, we are not hesitant to use some violent methods..."

"Do you want me to break your arms?"

But no one listened to Xi'er's order and protested silently.

After a long silence, an old miner squeezed out from the crowd. His face was cut open by a mining shovel, and his flesh and blood were spread out ferociously, dripping with blood.

He looked at Xier and said sadly:

"But we just want to protect our own home..."

“How are we going to live after these homeless people come?”

"They invaded our houses and stole our food. We just took up arms to resist. What did we do wrong?"

But his words were interrupted by the more excited voices of the wanderers:

"You don't look down on us at all!"

"If it weren't for the rift and natural disasters, which of us would really want to become a wanderer?"

"It's finally possible to return to the city, but you reject us so much... The lives of you miners matter, but the lives of us homeless people don't?"

"Obviously at the beginning, we just wanted to borrow some food to tide over the difficulties... Dihuo promised us that we would open up new mining areas. We all have a job, and we will definitely be able to pay back this money in the future. money."

"But you exclude us and no one agrees to our request... Do homeless people only deserve to sleep in dirty corners and dig for food in garbage dumps?"

The leading wanderer was covered in cuts and bruises, and his clothes were in tatters. His eyes were red with anger, and he gritted his teeth and said:

"We just want to live, what's wrong with us!"

The picture on the light screen faded.

A new note appeared on it:

[Because the city’s carrying capacity was insufficient, there was a fierce conflict between the homeless people and the aborigines of Panyan Town. 】

[Xie'er rebuked both parties with an extremely fierce attitude, and relied on the force of the ground fire to deter, and reluctantly ended the conflict. 】

[But it is obvious that before the lower-level area is connected to the upper-level area, due to insufficient resources and low prestige of the leader, such conflicts are foreseeable to continue to occur. 】

[You noticed that Xier, who was very fierce in front of this group of people, softened after they left, with a trace of melancholy on her face. 】

[You clearly noticed that Xier was worried. 】

[Late at night, just as you were preparing to take a rest, you saw the ethereal dark purple phantom butterfly flying in your room, and then outlined Xi'er's figure. 】

[She asks you thoughtfully whether her performance is up to standard, her tone is even pitiful, and she begs you to join the Earth Fire. 】

[Although it is just a routine inquiry every day, you feel that something is not right with Xier today. The answer she wants from you is not whether you are willing to join the Earth Fire. 】

[You did not answer exactly, but asked her if she had any other questions. 】

[Under your intentional guidance, Xier opened her heart and told you her confusion:]

["These conflicts will still appear in the future, but they are just trying to survive, and there is no way to distinguish right from wrong..."]

["Faced with this situation, what should I do?"]

[Special choice has been triggered - please note that the next choice will affect the action logic of the character "Xie'er" in this simulation. 】

[Depending on your choices, Xier will take different paths. 】

【please choose--】

[1. "The root of all conflicts can be attributed to productivity issues - Xi'er, the lower class areas are too poor. As long as we work hard to keep everyone fed, everything will get better."]

[2. "The conflict is just because they have difficulty understanding each other... As long as people understand each other, all conflicts will be eliminated."]

[Because this choice is a special one, you will automatically get a free option:]

【3. Enter the simulation yourself and play freely. 】

What are these options?

Ron was speechless for a moment. Option [-] was simply something that only a dreamer would say.

The lower area has become like this, and you still want everyone to have enough to eat?As long as they stay in this cramped mine, hunger will always be with them.

Option No. [-] has a kind of innocent beauty - not only has he not gone to school, he also looks like a child under ten years old.

Only they still have such simple illusions about the world.

But the sad reality is that people cannot understand each other. Human beings are such sad creatures.

I originally thought that compared to Bronya, Xi'er was quite strong, but now it seems that she is far from qualified as a leader.

This is not how to save the world. Xi'er has not realized how heavy her dream is...

If she really realized the weight of "saving the world", I'm afraid she wouldn't be confused by such a trivial matter.

This choice cannot be made randomly. Ron does not want to see Seele grow into a useless leader and hold him back like Yaya before.

Sure enough, I still have to take action myself...

Ron chose option three without hesitation.

As a slight feeling of dizziness came, Ron suddenly realized that he had entered a simulation, and in front of him was Xi'er who was in a very bad mood and looked at him pitifully.

She was still waiting for the answer Ron was about to give.

Looking at Seele in front of him, Ron gently picked off the butterfly fluttering next to Seele, and watched the phantom formed by imaginary numbers fluttering in his hand and flying into the sky with an illusory trail.

He smiled and suddenly asked Xi'er without any clue:

"Xier, why can butterflies fly?"

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

PS: This chapter has [-] words. I originally wanted to divide it into two chapters, but I always felt that two chapters with [-] words didn’t look good, so I wrote another [-] words and published them together.

Chapter 28—This is the last stand for our entire civilization!

[You temporarily resolved the conflict between the wanderers and the miners, but this incident left you physically and mentally exhausted. 】

[Your stress value has been greatly increased. Your stress value is now 150/100. 】

[You triggered a stress breakdown event——]

[You have obtained a temporary entry: Confused (grey)]

[Confused: The future and responsibilities of the lower district rest on your shoulders, and the heavy pressure makes you unable to breathe.You realize in a daze that you have reached a fork in the road of life, and you don't know where the people in the lower class are going to go among the thousands of roads, whether they will fall into the cliff or step into Eden. 】

[Before this entry is eliminated, it will be difficult for you to control your choices independently, and your stress level will increase every day. 】
