"Can big brother fix this, too?"

"It should be fine. Let me try. Xing, come over and give me a hand."

"Okay." Xing stepped forward.

Under Clara's surprised and slightly admiring gaze, the two quickly corrected the problem with the device and successfully restarted it.

"Wow! It's really lit up. Thank you, big brother and big sister! We in the outer circle finally don't have to worry about light and heat sources."

"No need to thank me." Zishu shook his head softly.

"The problem has been solved. Next, take us to see Swarovski." Xing smiled.

"Well, Clara won't go back on her word..." Clara's eyes showed some determination.

She knew that blindly waiting was a slow death, but she also knew that it might take a long time to change Mr. Swarovski's mind by herself.

Even if we wait until she becomes an adult, there may not be any result. Can the people underground really hold on that long?

During this time, people will get sick, lose their homes, and there will be constant fighting, just like what we have seen in the mining areas before...

In her heart, she didn't want things to turn out like that.

"Thank you for giving Clara the courage. Clara will try to help and convince Mr. Swarlow to stop getting in your way!"

Zishu and Xing both saw a different look in Clara's eyes.

At this moment, she was no longer the girl with a weak heart, and her eyes had a moving firmness.

"Axing, if you and Swarovski don't reach an agreement and end up fighting, remember not to kill her. This child can't bear to lose her. After all, she is her "family"..."

He admitted that he had previously thought of completely destroying Swarlow if he remained stubborn...

But now... maybe Swarovski can truly recognize and understand human emotions from Clara.

"I understand." Xing actually thought so too.

Clara didn't know that the two were communicating in the team channel, so she turned around and led the way, "Big brothers and big sisters, please follow me. We'll be there in a little while."

73. Talk about collapse

It didn't take long for the players to see the gate that blocked the original plot and made San Yue Qi shout out the famous scene.

Now that Clara is leading the way, there won’t be another Open Sesame, right?

Entering the plot dialogue interface, the sub-book, the protagonist, and Clara are all on the screen, as well as a traffic light robot guarding the gate.

[Only after comparing them did I realize that the traffic light is actually taller than Clara. I thought it was very mini before.]

[It is normal to make judgment errors at a long distance. It is very intuitive with a close reference object. ]

Clara: "…I'm back, Timmy."

Wandering robot Timmy: "Welcome back, Miss Clara."

Clara: "Timmy, open the door for me, I want to see Mr. Swarlow."

Timmy: "We have detected an outsider. Do you want to let him in?"

Clara: "It's okay, they are all Clara's guests."

Timmy: "Instructions received, access terminal unlocked, welcome back, Miss Clara... and... the guests."

The door slowly opened.

Zishu and the other person continued to move forward with Clara and found that the robots that followed her stopped at the door and no longer entered.

"Um...big brothers and big sisters, please try not to anger Mr. Swarlow..." Clara pleaded in a weak voice.

"Don't worry, we are not unreasonable people." Zishu replied with a smile.

"Well...Clara believes in you."

There is unimpeded access to the wide square at the deepest part. A huge humanoid robot stands in the center of the square, vaguely releasing a sense of oppression.

Zishu and Xing could clearly feel that from the first moment they saw each other, the other party's attention was on them.

"They look quite strong, far superior to those small robots. If a fight breaks out, Zishu, what chances do you think we have of winning?" Xing asked in the team voice.

"It's hard to say, but don't be afraid of the other party. Go ahead and try to communicate first. Fighting is the last resort." Zishu definitely cannot choose to tell the truth.

Hearing this, Xing tapped his chin slightly.

The three of them quickly arrived at the center of the square. Clara took two steps forward and stopped in front of Swarovski.

"I'm back, Mr. Swarlow."

Swarovski temporarily withdrew his main gaze from the two people behind him and looked down at Clara.

"I see the settlement's power system is back online. Thank you, Clara, but—"

"Why did you bring them here?"

Clara hesitated for a moment, mustered up the courage to look up, and said firmly: "Mr. Swarovski... They want to talk to you about opening the entrance to the upper area and no longer interfering with the decision-making of the people underground."

"Analyzing..."

Swarovski didn't answer Clara, and the red spots on his face swept over Zishu and the other person.

"Analysis results: The target does not belong to the Earth Fire Organization, Background: Unknown, Classification: Unknown information. In view of Clara's recommendation, I will give you a chance to speak."

Xing turned his head to look at Zishu and saw that he gave him an affirmative look.

"Tell the truth, don't beat around the bush."

Xing understood what to do. She took a shallow breath, first expressed her personal stance, and then got straight to the point.

"We have no intention of provoking a dispute. We came to you for two reasons. One is to ask for information about the star core, and the other is to ask you to open the entrance to the core and stop interfering with the actions of the people in the lower areas."

"Star core..." Swarovski paused, "Calling the database... Access is blocked. Talking about star core with unauthorized targets: forbidden. You are touching secrets sealed deep in the world, secrets that no human should know. "

"Reassess the target status - the threat index has increased. I require you to tell us your true intentions!"

Even though it was a robot, the people present could hear a strong sense of vigilance and unfriendliness in its tone.

Xing Qian took a half step forward and said in a deep voice: "We must find the star core and seal it to completely end the disaster of this world. As long as the star core is sealed, the impact of the rift and cold wave on this world will no longer have any follow-up power."

Swarovski was silent for a few seconds.

"In recorded history, humans have attempted to make contact with star cores several times, but without exception, they have sought to appropriate the substance for their own selfish purposes;"

"Instructions from the City Builder: Any attempt to contact the star core will result in serious consequences. Re-evaluate the target status - the threat index has reached the highest level;"

Xing's face darkened, and he thought to himself that this robot was indeed rigid and very difficult to get along with.

"We can't retreat." Zishu's words echoed in his mind.

Xing's pupils slightly turned, and her voice became a little louder, "We are different from those people. Your calculations cannot be applied to us at all."

Swarovski: "There is no evidence that you will be an exception. The original calculation results are maintained. The peace maintenance agreement is temporarily terminated. Apply to start the eradication agreement."

The words were without any emotion, which made Zishu and the other man look unhappy.

Xing became even more angry. She didn't expect that she would be wiped out just for asking for information related to the star core. How could there be such a domineering agreement clause?

Clara's face turned pale, and she pleaded in a trembling voice: "Mr. Swarovski, don't--"

"Clara, leave here." Swarovski was unmoved and gently pushed Clara behind him. "Prototype No. 3 - "Supervisory Machine" Swarovski, application status for extermination agreement: approved."

Xing's face looked unfriendly. He instantly held the baseball bat in his hand, and he and Zishu both jumped back a few steps and assumed a fighting stance.

"It looks like we have to fight even if we don't want to!"

"I'm not good at frontal combat, so leave your defense to me and fight with all your might."

Zishu didn't intend to reason with him, and without hesitation used the Wind Chasing Technique and the Body Strengthening Technique on Xing. There was only one option to deal with such a rigid guy: beat him into submission.

In the main storyline, he cannot use his hidden power, or the time to use it has not yet come, otherwise the entire storyline will collapse. Due to various restrictions and concerns, silently serving as a supporting role is the best choice.

"Clara, get away from here!" Zishu also gave her the Wind Chasing Technique.

Considering that she is a powerless little girl, the Wind Chasing Technique she is given is of excessive level, with the effect far exceeding the normal version, allowing her to evacuate the square in the blink of an eye.

Swarovski didn't say any more words. While Zishu was helping Clara, he raised his hand and began to accumulate energy. After a brief silence, a burning beam shot towards Xing.

Xing reacted quickly, dodging as the other party raised his hand, but she didn't expect, or rather no one expected, that the next moment after she dodged, a cry full of pity echoed throughout the square.

“Don’t—” A petite figure appeared in front of the original coordinates of the star without any warning, and faced the beam with her arms outstretched and her body.

"Clara—"

Zishu had been paying attention to the situation on the battlefield. When he saw this scene, his face changed drastically and he immediately used his fingers to perform a defensive move.

However, the Sky-Severing Technique requires a very short lead time to generate space ripples. Before they were fully formed, Clara was hit hard by the light beam that tore through the ripples, and her body flew backwards like a cannonball.

74. Save or kill?

Zishu didn't expect that the wind-chasing magic he cast on Clara would actually harm her.

There was no need to worry about anything at the moment. He quickly traveled through space to Clara's side and caught her. He then used all his strength to check her condition.

Xing was stunned, and Swarovski was also stunned. Obviously, neither of them expected Clara to do such a thing.

"Let go of Clara!"

Swarovski moved forward instantly, wanting to punch Fei Zishu and take Clara back to take her for treatment.

However, Swarovski hit an invisible space barrier and took several steps back due to the recoil force.

He steadied his body and looked towards Zishu, only to see a hint of cruelty flashing in his grey-black pupils as his face was slightly raised.

"Move the stars."

The gray formation instantly enveloped the entire square, and the eight trigrams patterns within it faintly flickered with dark light.

Several pitch-black chains broke through the air around Swarovski and coiled around his limbs like poisonous snakes. Even if they were broken by Swarovski just after they were wrapped around him, they would be repaired in the next second and faithfully execute orders.

"Xing, destroy him! You don't have to worry about anything, just give up defense and attack directly!"

"..."

Looking from afar at Clara's pale and bloodless face in Zishu's arms, Xing's dark golden pupils were suddenly filled with surging fireworks.

Is this what you call family?

She launched a frenzied attack on Swarovski without hesitation, using Zishu to interfere with and restrict Swarovski and beat him when he was down.

……

Player perspective.

Compared with the original plot, they entered the plot CG when talking about the star core. At the beginning, they were still immersed in the movie mode and had no idea that there would be such an unexpected development.

It was thought that Zishu, who cast various spells, was going to join forces with Xing to teach Swarovski a profound lesson, but Clara, who was one of the targets of the spells, actually sacrificed herself to stand in front of Xing.

No one expected that she could burst out with such terrifying speed, nor did they expect that she would be so precisely offset from Xing that she almost took all of Swarovski's attack.

[Fuck?! ]

[Blood? I saw blood spurting out in Misan’s game? ]

[Swarovski even hit Clara, how can you tolerate it? Fuck him! ]

Next, they saw Zishu's terrifying expression for the first time.

A more expressive formation than when fighting monsters was activated, covering the entire square. The chain skill that did not exist in the skill set also attacked Svaro like a snake.

Xing turned into a swift shadow, constantly moving around Swarovski, dodging attacks and looking for opportunities to counterattack.

The smooth combat and well-funded scenes would surely attract a lot of praise from players under normal circumstances, but now that the plot has unfolded, most people are concerned about what happened to Clara.

[A space comedy, right? Damn, Clara won't be the first character to die, right?]

[Then I will definitely have a fight with Misan! ]

Old Mu was even more immersed in the role, making it hard to tell whether it was an act or real. His face turned red and he kept shouting.

"How dare that damned Swarovski hit my wife? Aa ...

As if knowing the player’s anxiety, the battle scene continued for a while and then turned to Zishu holding Clara.

Zishu easily discovered Clara's injuries, which were quite serious.

Having led such a hard life in the lower area, her body was already weak. Even if the Sky-Severing Technique blocked most of the attacks, the remaining overflow was not something she could easily bear.
