But...the problem lies with this little tree.

Jeppard didn't remember a single small tree like this on this road... there shouldn't be any small trees like this on any road in Belloborg.

It’s not that Jeppard has an excellent memory and can remember every street in Beloberg, it’s simply because Beloberg has no green belts at all.

He couldn't help but think of the girl with whom he had fought before. At that time, he was fighting back and forth with the vines summoned by the other party, so he immediately became a little alert.

This is the range of the Rift. Although the creatures from the Rift have not launched an attack yet, if they really encounter Felittis here, they will probably be attacked from both sides.

But he was ready to sacrifice his life for Beloberg.

He took a deep breath and raised his right arm vigilantly, as if he was ready to deploy a shield at any time.

He suddenly punched out -

"boom!"

It was like the sound of a fist hitting a steel plate. Jeppard's hand was hurt by the shock. He quickly stepped back a few steps, staring at the small tree that Felittis had camouflaged in a vigilant manner, and said sternly:

"You are plotting to overthrow the city builders and destroy Beloberg! Please give up your meaningless resistance and surrender!"

"Ah this."

Felittis blinked her eyes, waved her hand to retract the life energy that was wrapped around her, looked at Jeppard with some curiosity, and asked in confusion:

"How did you find me?"

"The glory of the guardian protects us and enables us to see through all the conspiracies and intrigues."

Jeppard replied righteously.

nonsense.

Felittis pursed her lips and ignored Jeppard's serious nonsense. She snapped her fingers, and several wooden stakes quickly tied up Jeppard.

"I don't want to say it, so forget it."

Felittis made a face at Jeppard and then continued on her way happily.

Jeppard punched the wooden stakes and found that the stakes surrounding him did not move at all. He immediately shouted to his companions in front of him anxiously:

"Dunn, stop her!"

"this......"

Dunn, who was further ahead, heard the noise and just stood up but took no further action.

He had met Felicity.

He was one of the guards in charge of front-line combat. He had witnessed Felittis's "miracle" together with Bronya. Now that he saw the godly girl again, he really didn't know what to do for a moment.

"Dunn?"

Seeing that Dunn had fallen silent, Jeppard became even more anxious as he could not tell what expression he had under that huge bucket-shaped helmet.

"Dunn, why are you just watching!?"

"I'm sorry, Jeppard."

Dunn looked at Jeppard, then at Felittis, and finally shook his head at Jeppard.

"This lady... once saved my life and the lives of the rest of my men. I just can't associate her with a 'wanted criminal'."

He paused before continuing,

"I think there must be some misunderstanding."

"You are Beloberg's Silvermane Guard!"

Jeppard's eyes widened. He didn't understand why this senior who had more seniority than himself would give up his mission at such a critical moment.

"Jepard, because you have never seen such a miracle... light descended from the sky, expelling all evil spirits and curing all diseases."

Dunn took a deep breath. After he finished speaking, he turned his gaze to Felittis and said solemnly,

"...Madam, I don't know why you are wanted by the Great Guardian, but the light you shone on that day is still fresh in my memory. If possible, could you please tell me what your purpose is?"

"can."

Felittis readily agreed.

Chapter 41 Star Core is so proud

"...You mean, this never-ending cold wave, and the ever-eroding rift, all of which have been like a shadow hanging over Beloberg's head for seven hundred years, are caused by a so-called 'star core'?"

Dunn asked in disbelief, leaning on his shield.

"And your goal is to get rid of this star core, resolve all disasters, and leave this planet?"

Jeppard took over Dunn's words and continued with a serious look on his face.

"Uh-huh."

Felittis nodded happily.

Jeppard had a thoughtful expression. The terms that Felittis mentioned were too far away from him. To be honest, he didn't understand them at all.

But Dunn nodded very solemnly, with a look of "I completely understand". Although he didn't know what kind of expression he had under his bucket helmet, it was normal for him to know more than himself given his seniority.

Little did Dunn know that he also didn't understand what Felicity said at all. He just felt that such cool and incomprehensible words were very consistent with his imagination of Felicity.

He thought for a moment and finally just shook his head.

"I'm sorry, ma'am, I can't respond to your request. I'm only a soldier after all. In any case, I need to consult the Grand Guardian before making any decision."

He sighed with a hint of regret, but then changed the subject and said in a rather flattering tone,

"But - ah, if someone sneaks into the rift without me noticing, there's nothing I can do."

Jeppard was shocked.

"Then I'll go ahead~"

Felicity blinked, not expecting things to go so smoothly.

She thought that all the Silver Mane Guards were stubborn like Bronya.

"Ahahaha, I didn't hear anything?"

Dunn smiled proudly, turned his head, and patted Jeppard's shoulder vigorously.

"Brother Jeppard, it looks like the patrol mission isn't over yet. Let's go over there and take a look."

"Can......"

Jeppard suddenly became a little anxious. He turned his head to look in the direction of Felicity, but found that the girl had already disappeared from his sight.

"Senior Dunn, are we disobeying military orders?"

Jeppard looked worried. He had long regarded himself as a shield to protect Beloberg and had never disobeyed any orders.

"Jepard, let me ask you, what exactly are we trying to protect?"

Dunn was silent for a while, looking into the distance, as if to confirm whether Felitis had gone far away. After a while of silence like this, his eyes fell on Jeppard again and he asked calmly.

"The people of Belloberg."

Jeppard answered without hesitation.

"I have sworn my oath to Creeper. I will defend Belloberg and her people no matter the cost - including my life."

"Then have you ever heard of that lady attacking any civilians?"

Dunn continued to ask.

"..."

Jeppard was silent and shook his head.

"Then do you think we can stop her just by ourselves?"

"...cannot."

"That's right, Jeppard. That lady has never attacked Beloberg, and has even saved the lives of many Silvermane Guards. Now she is heading towards the deserted Everwinter Ridge, and we are going to use force against the lady who has done us a favor because of the so-called false charge of 'plotting to subvert the Builders and sabotage Beloberg'?"

Dunn sighed and looked in the direction of Beloberg with some emotion.

"Do you...remember that this was the crime used to dismiss Shiluwa from his post?"

"..."

Jeppard made no reply.

Meanwhile, on the other side.

Felicity walked on the dry snow, feeling the cold wind blowing across her face. Her long platinum hair fluttered in the wind and snow, but it was never stained by even a speck of snow dust.

Her eyes swept around - broken iron pieces and scattered stones were scattered all over the gray-white stone slabs, and the dilapidated stairs were rugged and winding connecting to the sky.

Countless humanoid creatures turned into ice sculptures stood there in various postures. Most of them still maintained their appearance in life, like insects trapped in amber. If there was no human interference, they would probably stand here forever.

It's spectacular.

Felittis sighed in her heart. She walked up slowly, feeling the rich life energy mixed in the cold wind.

Perhaps her approach once again attracted the attention of the star core, and the star core, which should have hidden itself, began to absorb life energy unscrupulously again.

fair enough.

She soon reached the top, which was a platform built on the top of the mountain. The accumulation of snow and wind made it particularly heavy. A strange building, which was broken but still floating in the air, came into Felicity's sight.

And in the middle of it, a golden light that shines like perseverance floats there, constantly rhythmic and changing, accompanied by the flow of life energy, like a beating heart.

This is... the core of a star.

Felittis had a happy smile on her face.

【A rich... evil creature.】

A voice suddenly sounded in Felicity's mind. It was a whisper-like sound, so noisy that it didn't sound like a human voice.

But Felicity heard it scolding her, and her pretty little face immediately fell.

As the saying goes, whoever gives you milk is your mother. She has already fed her life energy to the star core, so why is this guy still scolding her?

"..."

Felicity did not act rashly, but instead felt the power of the star core a little bit. After being convinced that it still could not kill her at its current level, she decided to continue waiting quietly for the star core to absorb the power.

But the star core was more anxious than she had imagined. The light on the ball of light became brighter and its life energy was dissipating madly.

[The birth of the universe is a mistake; civilization is a cancer that has quietly emerged among the stars. ]

The platform under my feet suddenly began to vibrate, the snow and dust buried on the ground were suddenly lifted up, and a huge steel arm suddenly emerged from under the snow.

[Everything, dedicated to the God of Destruction! ]

Huge steel arms supported the ground, doing something like a pull-up, lifting an entire steel body from underground.

A giant robot taller than a mountain stood behind the star core, and a red light flashed at the approximate position of its eyes.

【Burn, fusion, annihilation.】

The voice of the star core became more and more excited. It seemed that the absorbed life energy gave it great confidence.

It is the cancer of civilization that the destructive star god Nanook personally cast into the universe, plus the life energy of an entire planet, and even has the help of a "creation engine" from the guardian.

Even if it is a Lingshi, it can still compete with him!
