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

Looking at the other person's sad and tearful eyes, Sebastian deeply felt his failure as an educator.

Not only have they naively forgotten the lessons of their family, they have also forgotten how unfair and wrong it is for elders to impose their own ideas on children.

All the care, attention, and guidance for her were based on the adults' arbitrary expectations.

The opportunity for all this was laid early on when the city builders chose her as the successor to the Great Guardian and brought her from the lower district to the upper district she was unfamiliar with.

Because they were worried that her experience in the lower class area would affect her personality, they constantly exerted influence during her education, causing her to gradually forget her past.

She survives only as "Bronya Rand", the adopted daughter of the current Grand Guardian Cocolia.

"...I'm sorry. I think I need some time to sort myself out. Could you please leave for a while, Sebastian?"

When Bronya said this, Sebastian didn't think there was anything wrong with it. Instead, he nodded dejectedly, and his originally straight back seemed to bend a little.

However, before leaving, he still said solemnly.

"It's come to this. I won't try to persuade you any further, but the Guardian will never give up so easily... Her will is also beyond my control. If possible, please make plans as soon as possible. I will try to buy you some time."

"Thank you, Sebastian... That's enough. I'll explain this to Mother later."

Bronya felt sorry for the old man as she watched him hesitate to speak but finally shake his head and sigh.

But even if she couldn't bear it, she had to do it——

Going back now would mean being trapped again in the cage called "protection".

She had finally experienced that kind of scenery and absolutely did not want to return to the cold, depressing and inhumane Klippe Castle.

The will to preserve the place has faded, and cracks have appeared in the strong wall that protects the people. No one can fill them, and the day will come when they will be destroyed and rebuilt.

In this case, perhaps the dragon's attack on the city, breaking the old-fashioned ideas, is a good thing?

For some reason, facing the dragon, she always felt an inexplicable... sense of familiarity.

It's like I've seen it somewhere before?

Of course, she had never actually met the other person, nor was it the kind of past memory that was buried deep in her memory. Her childhood was just that of an ordinary child playing in the mud with Xier at the door of the orphanage.

But, since we have never met before, how can we have this feeling of "feeling like old friends at first sight"?

Could it be Wendy?

The moment this thought came to her mind, Bronya's expression froze, and she immediately flipped through the known intelligence collected and integrated by the intelligence officers.

The rustling sound of turning pages could be heard in the house.

Bronya's eyes gradually brightened until she turned to the end, and the memory of a casual chat in the lower area also came to her mind.

Wendy once talked about what kind of gift she should bring to the Goethe Hotel for a performance.

When it comes to the best location for the scene when the dragon attacks the city, it is naturally the two major "viewing platforms" of Krippenburg and Goethe Hotel in the non-administrative district.

The former, which Wendy considers to be the "enemy base", will naturally not fall into the trap, so the only possible choice is the latter.

After all, it is easy to observe the movements of both sides there, and it is also Wendy's best "performance venue".

Regardless of whether the dragon was transformed by Wendy, it was definitely inextricably linked to him.

Otherwise, with that much power, the dragon would not have to go to the trouble of destroying the protective barrier, slowly forcing humans to respond like boiling a frog in warm water.

She didn't think any Iron Guard could survive such an attack if they fired a dragon's breath directly at the front line of the restricted area.

If the goal is really to destroy Beloberg, and Beloberg's military forces are wiped out in one fell swoop, then the remaining people will be at the mercy of the Rift Realm.

All these doubts point to the person who has the ability to end it and is most likely to do such a thing - Wendy.

This guy... is really bold. I'm afraid he's still planning something bad. Even if I find him and question him, he'll probably think of getting away with it by saying "hey"!

The last time he lied to me about not being good at planning was also a lie, right?

"...I'll definitely give him a lecture when I see him next time. Bombing the wall is overkill, after all. They should just hover over Krippleburg, occasionally spewing dragon breath for a more oppressive effect."

Chapter 69: Xier is small and cute (blushing)

"Haqiu——!"

Wendy rubbed her nose and looked around a little confused. There was no cat, so why did she suddenly sneeze?

He did not stay in the shelter honestly, but found an excuse to sneak out.

After all, it was rare for Boss Swarovski and Clara from the lower area to come up, so he had to go over and show his face and ask them why they were there.

As for how he knew?

When he sent Tevarin to destroy the fortified walls, he commanded the winds of the city, making those that blew through the streets his eyes and ears.

This is also to avoid some bad things from happening -

Although he used the method of the magic dragon pressing down on the city to put pressure on Cocolia, it was not his intention to harm the innocent residents of the upper district.

These scattered winds would quietly attach themselves to those in need, adding a little boost to their movements. Otherwise, with so many people in the city, how could everyone reach the nearby shelter before dark?

Afterwards, they would probably just think that they were in a hurry to escape and squeezed out their body's potential, and they wouldn't think there was anything wrong.

As for the boundary-breaking monsters outside the city, he did not directly destroy the city walls, so there was no need to worry about a large-scale monster group attacking the city.

Except for the newly formed rift in the sky and the rift that had already spread into the city, most places were still safe.

Xier will handle the former, and the Silver Mane Iron Guards will be stationed nearby for the latter, so there's no need to worry about any major casualties.

Of course, doing so would put pressure on the dedicated Iron Guards, but there was really no other way. The lack of casualties was already outrageous, and if even the Iron Guards were doing well, it would only arouse suspicion.

Therefore, although there is no way to directly relieve their pressure, it is still possible to give a little assistance to those seriously injured Iron Guards so that they can hold on until rescue arrives.

Wendy had spent a lot of time yesterday solving those unexpected problems. It was like she was creating her own problems to solve...

However, this self-directed and self-acted event can be regarded as a preparation for what he will do in the future in a sense.

If we can't even control the wind in such a small place at will, won't we be sent to jail if we want to change the topography and weather in the future?

While thinking, the poet riding the wind also came to Shelter No. 16 where Swarovski and Clara were.

This place is more crowded than where Pella is stationed. After all, the population of the inner city is much larger than that of the administrative district, and in addition, people from the outer city are also accepted.

Therefore, at a glance, you can see small groups of people from all classes talking to each other.

Most of them were discussing Tevarin, whom they named a wind dragon.

This can also be regarded as the conclusion of a certain world line.

However, in addition to this, many people are also worried about the problem of insufficient supplies. With so many people needing food and drink, there must be a solution, right?

Although the shelter is regularly maintained, we are not so extravagant as to store a large amount of food that is not normally used in it.

The various "losses" and "costs" incurred during the transportation of these supplies to various shelters will surely cause Beloberg to suffer heavy losses.

It is hard to say whether we can catch our breath and continue to support Cocolia's counterattack strategy by then.

Therefore, barring any unforeseen circumstances, within a week at the most, Kokolia will definitely allow people to return home due to various administrative, logistical, livelihood, and public pressures.

After all, people cannot be allowed to starve to death. Forcing them to stay without supplies will only bring trouble to themselves. It is better to follow the will of the people and let them go back to store food and prepare for a long war.

As for what to do about security issues after this, the only thing we can do is rely on the Silver Mane Iron Guards to patrol more overtime.

It's normal for people to have some emotions, but if people are allowed to stay in the shelter and not come out to work, and the entire city is shut down, there will be big chaos within a month, without even waiting for Tevarin to come back.

Therefore, Wendy estimates that it will take about one to two weeks to resolve the incident.

Although it was okay to delay it a little longer, he was afraid that Cocolia would drag everyone else to self-destruct.

After all, other rulers who are under pressure from public grievances will eventually have to resign and give way to others.

But it would be very dangerous to continue to put pressure on Cocolia.

Although she has been in power for decades and her mentality is not so bad as to explode now, her current state is not that of a rookie.

After staying with the star core for a long time, not only will the personality tendencies be completely distorted, but how much positive personality remains is also a problem.

If we put too much pressure on this crazy woman, she might just run to Everwinter Ridge and use her city-building robots to destroy Beloberg first.

Then it seamlessly connects to a "sign of the end of the century".

In this case, Wendy will have to attack in his "Godly" form.

Although she is confident that she can have a perfect ending in the end, this will not provide any experience for Bronya, and it is also a question whether she can convince the public later.

All the arrangements for the underground fire would also be destroyed. Therefore, it was necessary to avoid a direct confrontation.

I wandered around the shelter until I came to a corner and saw a purple-haired female passerby... No, it was Xier who was climbing over the wall and observing something.

"Hmm? Xier, did you encounter anything interesting? Make room for me."

Hearing his voice, Xier immediately turned around, and the look in her eyes that seemed to want to silence her scared him.

"Well, forget it. I remembered I still have a bottle of wine to drink at the Pera, so I won't bother you anymore—"

When Wendy wanted to escape guiltily, the other party had already pressed on him, directly grabbed his hand and walked to the wall together.

"Don't even think about running away this time. Come here and take a look at the situation first!"

Xier pressed herself against Wendy's back, without any shame, just staring at the other side intently.

Wendy didn't feel distracted at all. After all, Miss Xier had a hard life when she was young. Although she was a little bit strong, it was just a little bit.

——It made him feel a little uncomfortable.

Wendy, who was thinking about the rude thing in her heart, slowly stuck her head out, and at the end of her sight were Swarlow and Clara.

The former was still dressed as a mechanical boss, while Clara was sitting among the automatic robots, helping them with maintenance.

The Iron Guard master who was watching nearby had a look of surprise on his face, and the apprentice next to him also looked as if he had seen a ghost.

"Hmm... like this, then like this, and then aim at the spark line..."

With the sound of electric sparks, the Tooth Wolf-type automatic robot whose right arm mechanical saw was stuck regained its combat effectiveness.

The people watching around cheered and praised Clara together.

The girl was shy and soon blushed and hid behind Swarovski, seeming a little at a loss.

She looked at everyone present timidly like a rabbit, and then she noticed Wendy hiding in the corner, looking at her with "loving" eyes.

"Ah! It's Sister Wendy!"

Clara's little face flushed with excitement, and her pink fingertips pointed towards where Wendy was.

This also drew the attention of the entire audience.

When Wendy subconsciously wanted to hide, she felt a push coming from behind.

Xier's voice also reached his ears accurately.

"Go and investigate their purpose. Don't tell me they're here to take our place—"

This woman is so dedicated?!

Chapter 70 Clara, hey, my Clara????

At this point, Wendy had no choice but to tap her head and stick out her tongue like a geeky idiot.

"Oh, I've been discovered."

"Puhuhu. What is Sister Wendy doing? That movement is so weird."

Clara covered her mouth and chuckled shyly.

However, she soon remembered the original purpose of her and Mr. Swarovski's coming up, and after confirming that Sister Wendy was fine, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Ever since she arrived at the shelter in the upper area last night, she has been looking for Sister Wendy everywhere. Unfortunately, she didn't find her. However, she heard a lot of rumors about Sister Wendy, most of which were complimentary.

This made Clara feel proud, thinking that her admired sister Wendy was also living a good life in the upper class area and was the object of everyone's admiration.

Moreover, does this also mean that as long as Clara works hard, she can become such a dazzling person in the future?

With the hope of proving herself, Clara found the Iron Guard uncles and expressed her desire to help them.

But at first, no one believed that a child like her could repair automatic robots, so they just found her a similar automatic toy.

It was Mr. Swarlow who stepped in to solve the problem.
