I, on the Starry Sky Railway, change everything

"Twenty minutes, I guess."

"...Why didn't you wake me up? You just sat here waiting for twenty minutes?"

"There's nothing urgent, so let's just wait. We can protect the girl's sweet dream and also enjoy your sleeping face. How can we just sit here doing nothing?"

Upon hearing this, Seele was completely unable to refute it with her arrogant tone.

She pointed to Hua Yi's leg and then rested her head on her sleeping spot.

"Does it feel numb?"

"A mere Seele is far from enough to make my legs go numb. I'm strong and healthy, I'm not afraid of a few more."

"All you do is say are nice things."

Is that considered polite talk?

She neither refuted the quantifier "only" before her name, nor accused Hua Yi of being greedy for other girls when he said he wanted a few more.

Xi'er could no longer be arrogant; she secretly resented herself for only knowing how to sleep all day and felt sorry for Hua Yi.

"Why don't you take a break?"

"Keep it for now, and let it accrue interest later."

Chapter 239 Full of Energy

The subtext of "Let you rest" is that she can offer a lap pillow, but Hua Yi wants to keep it...

What kind of interest rate would satisfy you?

She suppressed the strange feeling in her heart, casually said "Oh" and walked out of the cable car station with him.

One is the force of fire-fighting, and the other is the savior who helped the lower districts retake Rivet Town and gave public sermons in the upper districts. Many people know what the two look like.

Whenever they openly and honestly appear in public, they inevitably attract crowds.

The sheer number of residents wanting to thank the great hero in person or to admire the appearance of the Amber King's apostle was enough to pack the streets to capacity.

This is where those magical little gadgets come in handy.

Hua Yi was prepared; he simply put on his hood and pulled the brim down to cover his face.

We can also investigate the direction Seele's ahoge (cowlick) is facing after it's covered by the hood, and see if this strand of hair is a "strange thing" that ignores the rules of gravity.

If the situation in the lower levels is even more special, requiring a more secure way to conceal one's identity, the [Memory] Fate is undoubtedly a good choice, as it can alter cognition by influencing the memories of others.

Even without real-world examples like [Preservation] and [Exploration] that can serve as reference points, Hua Yi can still make good use of his memory destiny by relying on the gains in the simulated universe and his own abilities.

There are many methods.

The roads in Rivet Town are littered with slag and gravel, some scattered and some clumped together, making them bumpy and uneven to walk on. In terms of smoothness, it is still a step behind Rocky Town, and it is even less comparable to the Upper District.

Fortunately, the residents of the lower-level area were already used to it. Having experienced the tragedy of losing their homes and suffered so much, they finally saw a turning point. No one would complain; everyone was full of energy.

"Hey, you've made a good amount of Winter City Shields again, haven't you? Look how happy you are."

"Not much, not much. The first mining team just discovered a new vein, so I went over to join in the fun and helped dig for a few days."

"How is the money calculated? According to the old rules, whoever discovers the mineral vein first gets to mine it, and that piece of land will be fenced off. They would rather wait for it to be eroded by the rift than give it to someone else."

Residents dressed as miners move about the streets; some are busy going to the mining area to earn money to support their families and improve their lives, while others are returning from mining and chatting with friends they know.

“Back when Rivet Town was occupied by monsters, so many people became homeless. They lost their homes and couldn’t survive. Who cared about those arbitrarily set rules?”

"Yes. The wanderers and the mining team have clashed several times over a single mineral vein, injuring many people, and the subterranean fire couldn't stop it in time."

"Initially, before the blockade was issued, discovering a mineral vein would earn a reward and priority mining rights, and that's still the case now. Earthfire and Silvermane Iron Guards work together to maintain order. Not to mention that this is in line with the expectations of that lord, the Amber King's Apostle, to contribute to the preservation cause, the actual benefits are also greater than before."

Don't think that just because they can't monopolize the mines now, it's like they've suffered a huge loss. Mining teams and wanderers have never truly occupied any mining area. Those who can't survive will desperately look for work, and if they can't find any, they'll go to the camp.

Anyone can get hurt in a conflict. In the most difficult times, there are no benefits to be had. Everyone just wants to try to survive.

The mining team provided shelter for the homeless and allowed them to set up tents in the mining area. The homeless also maintained basic principles and did not take over the town of Rock Rock or anything like that.

Most of the people in Belloberg are neither that good nor that bad.

"Now the city builders have given the first mining team a sum of money, and the miners who are willing to mine are all paid wages, which are several times higher than before. Wouldn't everyone be scrambling to do it? Anyway, I feel that my back doesn't ache anymore, and my waist doesn't hurt anymore. It's all thanks to the protection of the Amber King."

"I think it's the power of the Winter City shield."

"Haha."

"Hey, everyone in front, watch out, don't bump into anything."

The engineer directed the automated machine soldiers to pass by.

The Grizzly model robot possesses strength befitting its large size, easily lifting heavy machinery and handling workloads that would be difficult for an average person to complete.

At first glance, it seems convenient, but compared to humans who only consume a loaf of bread over several kilometers, automated soldiers are much more precious. They consume energy, and the repair costs after a malfunction are not to be underestimated.

Now that the Rift Monsters are gone, Kripperburg hopes to improve the quality of life in the lower districts as soon as possible and continuously provide manpower and resources. Otherwise, arranging for workers to move heavy objects in batches would be a more economical approach.

Rivet Town is bustling, so bustling that people forget it was once affected by the rift and turned into a dead city.

Monsters that did not belong to this world have long since vanished, and humanity continues to write its own story of civilization in its homeland.

Seele felt as if she had returned to her childhood.

—No, the town is more vibrant now than it used to be.

The peaceful daily life that follows hardship is all the more precious.

Like a flower blooming in a crack in a rock, it will always be more beautiful than one that grows in the soil.

"I only remembered it now that I've come this far."

Hua Yi realized a problem.

"According to the report, the reconstruction of the lower level area has been basically completed, but if the restaurant we mentioned is not within the basic scope, then we've made a wasted trip."

"It wasn't a wasted trip. Seeing Rivet Town come back to life is more satisfying than having a big meal."

"Oh, Seele is satisfied?"

"...Anyway, there are plenty of vendors on the street, so it's the same whether I buy from them or not. I'll still pay for it, and it won't cost less than eating at a restaurant."

He expressed his concerns, watching as she, who had previously been arrogant, now clearly intended to treat everyone to a meal. As he finished speaking, he couldn't help but glance over, afraid of disappointing her.

That little expression.

Hua Yi was treated to a visual feast.

I haven't even had a chance to eat anything delicious yet, but my eyes are already tired of looking at everything.

When she walked through the alley and found that the shop she remembered was open for business, a smile immediately bloomed on Xi'er's pretty face, and all her worries disappeared.

"Look, the restaurant is open!"

"Indeed, it seems we're quite lucky."

"What would you like to eat? At least two main dishes, plus various snacks, I'll order for you!"

"Sure, I don't have any dietary restrictions anyway, so make whatever you like."

As members of the Earthfire Organization became part of the city builders, their salaries were naturally paid by Kripper Fortress, ensuring that those who contributed to the survival of the lower districts would not be treated unfairly.

The Winter City Shield that belonged to Seele, the chief warrior of the Earthfire, was forced upon her by Natasha. The girl didn't want it at the time, thinking it was too much and unnecessary.

Now we finally have a place to spend money.

Today's expenses at Hua Yi will be paid for by Miss Xi!

Chapter 240 Too much of a womanizer!

The wooden table placed in the open space outside the shop is full of the marks of time; to call it old would be an understatement.

The tabletop, made of wooden slats, is missing a piece here and warped up there, so it's hardly a flat table. Only the chairs are in decent condition and don't look too worn out.

Many things in a heavy industrial town have a rugged style, but they are durable.

Although the wooden table surface is not perfectly flat, it can still hold various dishes steadily. The double-layered wooden structure is sturdy enough that there is absolutely no possibility of it suddenly falling apart and knocking over the dishes that customers have paid for.

Even outside of mealtimes, residents of Maoding Town still come over just to taste the flavors they remember.

The children followed the adults around, excitedly asking what great things had happened recently and how there could be so much food.

Great news! The Amber King has appeared and sent a Guardian Apostle to save the Lower District and the entire Beloborg.

This deviates from reality.

One person's ideas have little power.

However, the collective aspirations of the masses are enough to resonate with the Star Core, freezing the Legion with a cold wave, and allowing [Protection] to protect Beloborg, leaving behind a relatively normal temperature haven on the frigid planet.

It is not easy for ordinary people to embark on their destiny and master extraordinary powers.

In a more ordinary civilization, there might not be any powerful beings of the Destiny Walker level on an entire planet.

Belloborg is special; despite its small size, it has produced so many warriors. The people here are extraordinary.

When everyone reaches a consensus that Hua Yi is the spokesperson for the Amber King and the protector of destiny, it may not attract the attention of the Star God, but it is enough to make those who have never been involved in destiny step into it.

[Storage] caused a splash, because what Hua Yi did was precisely the act of storage.

He saved a city, a world, and a spark of civilization that was almost extinguished.

The veil of mystery almost obscures reality, because Hua Yi has never truly embarked on the path of preservation, yet he is rumored to be the apostle of the Amber King.

History is not the truth, and objectivity can be erased.

The past should not exist in the past; it should only exist in the present, in people's minds, to be dressed up as one pleases.

Moreover, the turbulent times in Huayi have created new possibilities for the great guardians of all generations, making it even more fictional than fictional historians.

The waves of [pleasure] seemed to overflow with emotion, warmly inviting Hua Yi to immerse himself in it and pursue the ultimate pleasure.

People who are not protectors of the path are rumored to be apostles of the Amber King. What does this have to do with mystery? It's joy, joy!

Some people escaped the gaze of the star god twice in a row, some stirred up their destiny in ways that defied common sense, and some were speculated to be travelers of wisdom, destruction, or preservation, but in the end, they never stepped into their destiny.

What? You're saying they're all the same person?

Oh! My Aha!

If that Star God knew, he would definitely come and kidnap Hua Yi, and beg him to give him a chance to take the spotlight in place of Galaxy Baseball Man the next time he attracts the attention of other Star Gods.

Hey, is this the person you're looking for?

When the time comes, Aha will think of his lines and give the Star Gods a proper greeting.

The Three Paths of Fate are not just now causing fluctuations in Hua Yi's life.

They had already started pulling them.

Under normal circumstances, ordinary people become travelers on the path of destiny without ever having a choice.

Those who venture far away will not reach the threshold of their destiny if they doubt their own beliefs.

Hua Yi had no self-doubt; he was just too fickle. Even with three destinies adorned in flamboyant attire, he remained heartless and had no intention of giving a formal response.

I just stood there watching.

By understanding the principles of destiny from the perspective of imaginary numbers, even though this is an unobservable object in the consensus of the universe, Hua Yi's sensitivity to imaginary numbers, coupled with the subtle fluctuations of destiny, allows him to gradually comprehend the truth of the universe.

Are triangles stable structures?

In any case, there was no violent conflict between [preservation], [mystery], and [pleasure]. The pull that transcended reality did not have any negative impact on Hua Yi. On the contrary, it helped to observe the mystery.

If any emergency occurs, you can even "log in" to someone else's account.

The simulation is completed at the level of destiny.

Now, the only option is the Starbreaker Queen Worm. The original Great Guardian, Alisa, is a pure preservationist, which is much more reliable than breeding.

And she'll cooperate.

When the time comes, let Alisa stir up the destiny path, while she hides amidst the turmoil. Surely the other destinies won't run to the preservation pool to rescue someone...

Xi'er, who was standing next to Hua Yi, was completely unaware of his "womanizing". She looked around and made sure that the restaurant was not much different from what she remembered.
