Felicity was not surprised. It was impossible to make someone trust a complete stranger immediately.

"If you don't mind, please follow me. Belloberg will certainly receive you with the highest treatment."

"No need, I will show up once you get the answer."

Felittis shook her head. Since she had to get the answer from the Great Guardian, it didn't matter whether she went or not. The people from the Star Train would get there soon anyway.

Instead of reuniting, it would be better to investigate some more interesting things first.

Felittis closed her eyes slightly, feeling the breath of life coming from underground, and showed an interested expression.

She waved her hand, and a breeze with the scent of flowers blew by, making Bronya's long hair flutter slightly.

In the blink of an eye, Felicity disappeared in front of her.

"A traveler from outer space?"

Bronya muttered to herself as she looked at the place where Felittis disappeared.

"Lady Bronya!"

A call pulled her out of her thoughts. She raised her head and looked at the guard beside her. She took a deep breath and her eyes gradually became firm.

"Collect the troops, all Iron Guards retreat to the defense line, I want to go back to see the Great Guardian."

"Yes!"

The guard officer responded loudly, his eyes full of anticipation behind his bucket-like helmet.

Chapter 23 Underground City

Beloberg.

The last fortress stands in the cold wave. 700 years ago, a monster from outer space set the planet on fire, turning everything into nothing. At the critical moment of life and death, the cold wave suddenly came - the sweeping gale buried the entire world without warning, and only Beloberg remained.

The city was built by determined "city builders". Under the protection of "protector" Krippo, although Belloberg is attacked by wind and snow, it is always warm.

That being said, Beloberg was not always safe. The scope of the Rift was constantly expanding. If ordinary humans stayed in the Rift for a long time, even if they were not killed by the monsters, they would become one of the monsters. The cold wave lasted for seven hundred years, and there was no sign of stopping until today.

No one knows why the disaster came, and no one knows when it will end.

Except...the great guardians who have guarded Beloberg for seven hundred years.

Klipper Castle is located in the center of Belloberg. It is the tallest building in the entire Belloberg. Guardians of all generations have handled official business here.

Including the current Grand Guardian, Cocolia.

[Coco...Leah...threat...gradually...]

"You don't need to remind me that the power has no intention of hiding from us."

Cocolia folded her arms and looked out the window, her tone calm and composed.

[We must...eradicate...eradicate all variables. 】

【For...eternal prosperity.】

"I know."

Cocolia nodded. She looked out the window calmly at this beautiful and prosperous city, but there was only sadness in her heart.

Including the previous seventeen great guardians, almost no one in the entire Beloberg aims to leave Beloberg. People cling to their own land and can only peek at the round sky under the protection of the [wall], just like ants clinging to their own anthills.

There is only internal friction.

In the endless cold wave, the soul is like a meteor bound by gravity, unable to break free from the shackles of gravity and never able to fly into the free sky.

In this situation, only destruction... only by erasing all the stale traces of the old world and giving up the unhesitating survival, can the new world rise from the ruins.

Kokolia took a deep breath and looked up at the sky with a firm gaze:

"I will definitely...give the world a new life."

At this moment, the door of the office was suddenly opened, and a guard officer walked in quickly, then knelt on one knee, clasped his hands together and said:

"Lord Cocolia! Three travelers claiming to be from outer space are seeking to see you!"

"...bring them in to me."

"Yes!"

It's really...it's easy to get.

......

Felicity dug through the pile of spare parts and successfully found a bottomless hole.

In her perception, this cave entrance was connected to another huge space, and inside it, countless life breaths were moving underneath.

Is there another civilization beneath Beloberg? An underground civilization?

Felicity became interested.

Go down and have a look.

Without hesitation, Felicity jumped directly into the hole. She found that there was a long passage behind the hole, which sent Felicity underground like a slide.

——Then she fell into a pile of boxes.

"Hiss... I should have known to use imaginary energy to protect myself."

After rolling on the ground for a while before getting up, Felicity dusted herself off and raised her head, her gaze meeting a pair of dull blue eyes.

"who are you?"

The girl's eyes suddenly became sharp, and her body floated lightly backwards like a leaping butterfly.

A sickle that was almost taller than her appeared out of thin air in her hand. She stared at Felicity warily, like a kitten with its fur standing on end.

"My name is Felittis, the Envoy of Plenty."

Felittis looked around, brushed off the dust on her body, and then introduced herself to the butterfly-like girl.

"I have never seen you, nor have I heard of the title of the Envoy of the Order of Plenty. You'd better explain this."

She got the answer she wanted, but the vigilance on the girl's face did not decrease in the slightest.

A stranger fell from the "sky" and fell into a place that had been eroded by the rift. Xier didn't think that the seemingly fragile girl in front of her was trustworthy at all.

Felittis observed Xier's expression and suddenly raised her eyebrows.

"Of course, I don't mind, but before that, could you please answer a question for me?"

She took a few steps closer, suddenly reached out her hand, held Xier's empty hand, shook it up and down vigorously, and a bright smile appeared on her face.

"......Can."

Xi'er didn't want to shake hands with Felicity, but she didn't like killing innocent people. The sickle that was swung down finally stopped at Felicity's neck and was quickly withdrawn by her.

"What is this place?"

Felicity's smile remained.

"...This is the Lower Town, located beneath Beloberg."

Hearing Felittis's question, Xier's face suddenly darkened, a trace of gloom passed over her face, and even her tone was a little irritable:

"Is life on the surface so lax that you guys at the top have even forgotten the existence of the underground?!"

"Hmm~ Underground, forgotten."

Felittis blinked and quickly got the information she wanted from the girl.

It turns out that underground civilization only exists in our imagination.

"Now it's your turn to explain! Tell me! Where did you come from and what is your purpose!?"

Xier would not give Felicity more time to think. The sickle that she had just put down was raised again, and her hand also broke away from Felicity's palm.

Felicity looked at Xier's slender and soft palms with some regret, then raised her hands helplessly.

"Okay, let me tell you, I come from an alien civilization, and I'm here to find something called a [Star Core]..."

"What the hell is going on?"

Felicity was interrupted abruptly by Xier before she finished speaking. Xier frowned and looked at Felicity impatiently.

"Anyway, come with me. I'll have Chief Oleg come and question you in person. Be honest."

She was really not suitable for interrogating others, so she simply stopped asking.

"Captain Oleg?"

"Our [Underground Fire] boss... No, why am I telling you this? Just follow me and don't try to play any tricks."

Xier responded subconsciously, but she suddenly reacted after the words were out of her mouth. She glared at Felicity fiercely, turned the sickle in her hand and landed steadily on her shoulder.

She carried a sickle, as if to demonstrate to Felicity.

"Oh~"

Felittis nodded happily and followed Xier's pace.

What a straightforward girl.

Chapter 24: Underworld Fire (Part )

The lower area is full of rock walls, with no obvious regional planning, only scattered mining areas and small towns, like a suburb of Beloberg.

Felittis followed behind Xier, looking around curiously.

"Hey."

"I'm not saying hello."

"...So your name is Chu Yuxuan?"

"?"

Xier felt a headache from Felicity's noise. She held her forehead and said to Felicity helplessly,

"If I tell you my name, will you be quiet?"

"Uh-huh!"

Felicity nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

"...Xi'er."

"Oh!"

Felittis cheered, and then kept quiet as promised.

Xier breathed a sigh of relief and continued to lead Felicity towards the direction of the boss.

But this silence did not last long, and soon Felicity could no longer suppress her curiosity.

"Xi'er Xi'er, what is that big pillar over there?"

"...The hearth."

"Xi'er Xi'er, what do people in the lower city usually do?"

"Mining."

"Xier Xier..."

"Can't you just be quiet for a moment!?"

After a dozen conversations like this, Xier finally couldn't stand it anymore.

She glared at Felicity fiercely, like an angry cat.

However, just as she was about to say something, a gentle voice suddenly sounded behind her.

"Xi'er, don't be angry all the time. It's not good for your health."
