Xingtie, started with a guitar, and made a living by singing

However, Xier unexpectedly did not say anything to stop them. She just snorted lightly, took out two red scarves, and motioned for the two to wear them.

Among them, Wendy's cute pattern with some purple butterflies looks like it was made by a slender girl.

"Thank you. But, is this... a gift?"

Although she obediently took the scarf handed to her, Bronya still asked subconsciously.

"No, why would I give you a gift if I have nothing to do? If you don't want it, just give it back to me. I just gave it to you by chance anyway—"

Xier glanced at her with disappointment, as if blaming her for being so rude, and then looked at Wendy. That was her masterpiece, and even the style was different from the popular ones she tied herself.

Wendy, not wanting to see the "Brave Squad" start a new internal conflict, helped explain, "This is something far more precious than a gift."

Under Xier's fierce gaze, he responded with a soothing smile and continued to speak.

"Do you remember that uncle named Oleg from earlier? He was the leader of the Underworld Fire, leading the lower-level people in their tenacious struggle. He was a truly remarkable man.

In the Dihuo organization under his leadership, there is a saying: Tie this red scarf and share each other's pain.

Therefore, for the members of Dihuo, this red scarf is not only a proof of family, but also Xier's recognition of us."

Bronya was very familiar with this measure of strengthening centripetal force, as the Silver Mane Guard also had similar practices.

At the same time, she did vaguely recall that she had seen the man named Oleg when she was looking through the roster of the Silver Mane Guards.

But compared with him in the photo, he looked much more vicissitudes and older. In addition, he was seriously injured and dying at the time, so she did not look at him too rudely.

Now that I think about it, if I remember correctly, he was once the captain of the Silver Mane Iron Guard who was responsible for the security of the lower district.

After the blockade, he retired and disappeared. Unexpectedly, he still stayed in the lower city, forming the Underground Fire to defend the people...

The weight of this red scarf seemed to become much heavier at this moment.

Bronya tied the red scarf around her arm, just like Seele did.

As for Wendy, he took off the black bow tie on his collar and tied the red scarf on it like a scarf.

Although it looks a bit subtle, it reveals a strange sense of coordination everywhere.

After this little episode, Xier continued to act as a guard as usual, protecting the two of them behind her.

Wendy also touched the Eye of God at his waist, which had a faint fluorescent green color flowing on it. Bronya noticed his subtle movement and also recalled the weapon he used to help the Iron Guards rescue.

It was an ancient and elegant hunting bow.

It doesn't feel like a weapon that can destroy monsters from the Rift Valley, but rather a relic that should be placed in a museum.

The Belobergs hadn't used this ancient weapon for a long time, and the reason was simple: human-fired arrows might have some effect against elemental crystal creatures, but against more difficult monsters, they were essentially useless.

Even hand cannons seem particularly weak when facing them, not to mention bows and arrows that require higher individual quality.

I'm afraid that even if I exhaust myself, the arrows I shoot are enough to prick the opponent into a hedgehog, but it is still unclear whether I can kill a monster.

It was only natural for such an inefficient weapon to be eliminated, but Wendy was using such a weapon...

Thinking of the blue arrow light that was like a meteor and the giant wind vortex that swept across the entire waiting square, Bronya was amazed and envious of the power he controlled.

Honestly, her strength lies more in collaborative combat. In other words, she's more useful within an organized team. As an individual soldier, her impact is probably even less than Lieutenant Dunn's.

Although as a Great Guardian she does not necessarily need extremely advanced martial arts, after all, since the first Great Guardian, there have been only a handful of Great Guardians with outstanding combat power, but it is only human nature to envy such power, right?

If I could have such power, could I share some of the responsibilities with my mother earlier so that she would not become so extreme?

Although she knew that such an assumption was meaningless, Bronya couldn't help but think of these possibilities.

While she was lost in thought, Wendy's clear voice came to her ears.

"Hmm? Are you curious about my God's Eye?"

He still had that carefree smile on his face, as gentle as the wind, and showed her the Eye of God openly.

"Eye of God?"

Bronya was a little confused by this.

"Ah, I forgot you have no idea what it is. Simply put, you can think of it as an external magical organ."

Wendy not only explained, but also placed the Eye of God on the other person's palm.

"Here, let me show you a closer look. If you like it, I can make you an identical one, hehehe."

Although she didn't have a deep understanding of what Wendy said, Bronya was very clear about the importance of the organ. She carefully held the warm Eye of God in her palm and could feel a breeze lingering above it.

At the same time, she was also surprised that Wendy would trust her with such an important thing, but... this seemed to be very much his style.

But, did she hear some strange words just now?

Make one. Is it actually possible to make this thing?

Perhaps interpreting this meaning from her somewhat surprised eyes, Wendy answered skillfully.

"It's certainly possible to make them. For example, I made a few for those kids from the Mole Gang I met earlier."

"Eh?! Is it okay to do this? What if they accidentally hurt someone—"

When I think about those kids, not to mention that each of them has the destructive power of Wendy, even if they have one-tenth of his, it would be enough to mess up the streets.

Bronya's voice naturally caught Seele's attention. It would be more accurate to say that she had been listening since the two of them started chatting.

Although I am troubled by these two guys who lack a sense of crisis, I have to follow them in the end. What else can I do?

Therefore, when she heard Bronya's words, she just showed a bored and somewhat mocking expression.

"They're just some glass beads for kids to play with. There are far more dangerous things in the lower areas."

"Glass beads?"

Bronya was stunned at this moment, and then she thought that she was fooled by Wendy, and immediately glared at him angrily.

Wendy just blinked innocently and spread her hands.

"I'm not saying it's real. It's just a fake, sparkly glass bead. Of course, it's dangerous if children accidentally ingest it."

This inexplicable disappointment made Bronya realize once again that "power" is not something that can be obtained so easily.

Also, when Wendy does something bad, her friendly smile makes people want to punch her for some reason.

Chapter 37 Win~Win

"Okay. We've arrived. We can talk about other things when we get back. Now we need to find something, someone—"

Xier took the initiative to end the topic, and at the same time frowned as she looked at the layout of the street, constantly thinking about what to do if she encountered an enemy, and which side would be safer to escape to.

You know, it's not easy to lead two outsiders. If her boss hadn't asked her to lead new people a few times before, she would never agree to his proposal.

Bronya followed Seele's idea and began to search for possible clues nearby, while Wendy tilted her head slightly, as if listening to something.

Then he looked toward the end of the street, where, around the corner, was one of the town's garbage dumps.

Over there, the wind brought a breath of eternal time.

It only needs a carrier to become a story.

Following the wind's guidance, Wendy, like her older sister from the past, followed her path and arrived there. Bronya and Seele also followed him when they saw him leave the group.

At the end, the three of them heard a "grunting" sound at the same time.

It was a shiny white and black creature, shaped like a pig, with a round body and ears that looked like small golden wings fluttering in the wind.

It had a more formal name, the Dimensional Piggy Bank. Next to it, a beetle-shaped automaton with a nearly shattered force field shield was surrounded by a group of Rift Monsters.

"This is, Pascal?"

Wendy recognized it. This automatic robot with "emotional intelligence" had been wandering around here for the past ten years in search of parts to repair the town, and occasionally would go to the mechanical settlement to steal some parts.

However, because the amount stolen was relatively small and it still had its intelligence, after Clara established communication with it, it was not expelled or excluded as an alien, but the stealing behavior had to stop.

After all, under the threat of data formatting from Boss Swarovski, it had no choice but to agree from the bottom of its heart.

Wendy had come here several times before and hadn't seen it, so she thought it was a bit strange. She didn't expect to be stuck here.

"Hey, why are you still in a daze? There are enemies ahead—!"

Xier frowned and shouted sternly.

"The singing singers, quickly retreat a little. And Miss, brace yourself and use the experience you mentioned in battling the rift monsters to fight the enemy!"

Naturally, Xi'er wasn't the only one who reacted to this narrow encounter. The Eternal Winter Shadow, who had been surrounding Pascal and about to bring down his axe, also paused and turned to look over.

Although the head made of ice spikes had no facial features, the people present could feel that its attention had been completely attracted. The other Eternal Winter Scourge Shadows and Frost Crystal Creations present with it also surrounded it.

Several of the frost crystal creatures flapped their ice crystal wings rapidly, and the buzzing sound gradually grew louder until the accumulation of energy was completed.

They simultaneously streaked across the air with several streaks of deep cold blue light, and charged directly towards Xier who was at the front.

The distance between them was so close that at their high speed they were about to collide with Xier in almost the next second.

"--careful!"

As soon as Bronya gave the warning, the frost crystal creatures' ice crystal wings, which exuded an extremely cold and sharp aura, had already slashed towards Seele.

But this offensive that was about to succeed came to an abrupt halt. Xier, who was at the starting position, just snorted coldly and hooked her fingers.

The first frost crystal creature to arrive was hooked by the sickle blade and swept to the right to hit the second one. Then they were split in two like mosquitoes, and the shrill buzzing sound also stopped.

It seemed that it was unable to react to the failure of the offensive. Before the last frost crystal creature could flap its wings a second time, it was hit by the sword light that swirled against it and turned into a large piece of ice chips and scattered.

Xier reacted in such a short time and completed the counterattack, but did not stop there.

After dealing with the monsters that were close to her, she burst out with her own speed, rushing into the group of monsters like an arrow from a bow, holding them firmly in place.

This made Bronya's nerves tense again. She originally wanted to stop the other party's reckless behavior, but Seele taught her a solid lesson with her own strength.

Although this kind of single-handed approach is not encouraged among the Iron Guards, in the lower-level areas, people who lack everything have to learn to rely on themselves in everything.

Getting injured or bleeding is a common occurrence. Some people may be afraid of fighting because of this, but Xier is different. She can tolerate pain better than ordinary people.

This was enough to support her in unleashing her own style in battle, ignoring those insignificant wounds and bruises, and still dancing like a butterfly in extremely unfavorable combat environments.

Yes, just like a flutter of light and mesmerizing butterflies.

She continued to use her high-speed movement brought by shuttling back and forth between quantum states to continuously harvest these monster groups composed of the Eternal Winter Scourge and Frost Crystal Creations.

Her courageous look as she fought more and more made people feel that what she was harvesting was not a group of extremely dangerous monsters from the Rift Valley, but bundles of wheat.

If it were just a group of monsters of this magnitude, Xier alone would probably be able to deal with them all in a short while.

but--

In the midst of the chaos, there was still one point of incongruity.

The round-headed dimensional piggy bank still did not choose to escape at this moment. Instead, it continued to bury its head in the weeds on the ground, constantly digging deeper roots to eat.

It was as if it had determined that the people here posed no threat, or perhaps... in its eyes, the three of them were actually food?

Just as Bronya keenly sensed something was wrong, a slight sound of an arrow being plucked was heard in the air.

She subconsciously looked at Wendy behind her, but found that he did not pick up his weapon. Instead, he looked at the top of the building behind her, which was unusual for her. The sense of crisis between life and death suddenly rose in her mind.

Almost instinctively, she shouted: "—Be careful! There are still enemies hiding in the high places!"

This timely reminder allowed Xier, who had already noticed the restless atmosphere around her, to immediately withdraw from the encirclement.

Then, as if Bronya's words were fulfilled, an arrow wrapped in the power of wind and mist shot stealthily and silently towards Seele's original position.

The extremely penetrating wind arrow instantly pierced the unfortunate Eternal Winter Shadow to the ground, and the wind pressure contained in it burst out, causing a large amount of turbulence!

Xier held the sickle in front of her body, but her clothes were still rustling in the airflow, and some gravel even scratched bloody marks on the girl's skin.

She looked cautiously in the direction where the arrow came from, where stood a centaur monster with a human upper body and a horse lower body.

Qinglan's body, which is highly adaptable to airflow, is full of the beauty of agility and lightness. The giant double-wing shield covering his left front leg further demonstrates that his defense is also not low, and his right front leg is slightly raised backward and does not touch the ground.

Although monsters from the Rift Zone are not supposed to have real intelligence, this monster gives people a feeling of comfort, or even looking for fun.

It tilted its head slightly, as if it had not expected that the previous arrow had missed, but it still looked nonchalant.
