Listening to the concern of his companions, the captain of the Iron Guard shook his head: "It's okay, just a little bit injured..."
At this moment, everyone was silent. External injuries were nothing to the Iron Guards. Even if they were disabled, they were willing to do basic work for everyone in the rear.
But this time, he was hurt in the heart. He was originally a member of the lower class, and his teacher had taught him the principles of life and pointed out the way forward for him. Apart from his parents, this teacher was very kind to him, but he died in the erosion of the Rift Realm?
Captain of the Iron Guard: "It seems that the rumors are true... The Lower Region Rift has already eroded the Lower Region..."
Grumpy Iron Guard: "Captain! Let me see us go down! We are needed down there."
Calm Guard: "I don't think it's appropriate. If we leave now, we will be regarded as traitors..."
Angry Iron Guard: "Captain, what do you say we should do?"
The captain of the Iron Guards put away the suicide note. At the same time, he handed the suicide note he had been carrying with him to the Iron Guards who had been silent not far away: "All your family members are up there, so this matter is left to you. This is my suicide note, and... tell Commander Jeppard that I'm going to the lower district. I am the Silver Mane Iron Guard of Beloberg, not the Silver Mane Iron Guard of Cocolia."
"I am Beloberg Silvermane Iron Guard. I cannot watch my mentor and friends die in obscure circumstances. I cannot watch my hometown being eroded and remain indifferent. You all know how fast the Rift Realm erodes without guards. I cannot watch the lower realm being eroded. You don't have to follow me. If Commander Jeppard or Commander Bronya want to punish me, then do it. I'm leaving now!"
The captain of the Iron Guard, who had just pretended to be dead, had made his own decision. He would always be loyal to the Silver Mane Guard and was willing to give his life to protect Beloberg.
However, when he was about to take action, the silent guard who had been silent before stopped him and said, "Captain, wait a moment."
There was a contact phone number on the platform, and he contacted Jeppard in the penalty area through the phone.
After receiving the news, Jeppard confirmed his thoughts: "I see, she knows the truth? I see, I now order you to go to the lower area to guard Beloberg. I will send two teams to the lower area to support you later, please remember the mission of our Silver Mane Iron Guard."
The other end of the phone: "With the will to protect, guard Beloberg! Until the end."
Jeppard: "Yes! To protect Beloberg, and... to survive."
Jeppard didn't know what the lower level area was like, but according to the report from his informant, the situation in the lower level area might be worse than that in the upper level area.
Rivet Town has been eroded by the rift, so you can imagine what the lower area has become.
As for what Bronya would do and how would she do it? Jeppard had no way to help for the time being. The attacks of the Sky Rift Creatures had become more frequent, so frequent that he couldn't even ask his sister to repair his weapons when they were damaged.
When he hung up the phone, a guard in charge of reconnaissance ran over and said, "Oh no! The creatures from the Rift Valley are here again..."
Without asking any more questions, Jeppard picked up his weapon and rushed out.
He looked at the 'barrier' in his hand. Due to the high-intensity impact of the Rift Creatures in the past two days, the 'barrier' his sister made for him had some problems, but...
"In the name of Langdao, I forge this ambition with ice and snow, and it will never end!"
At this moment, the ice cone formed by the power of preservation smashed towards the Rift Creation that attacked Beloberg. At the same time, the power of preservation aroused the will of everyone.
Jeppard looked at the Rift Creation that was constantly rushing towards Beloberg, and his heart was full of determination: "No matter what! We will resist the invasion of the Rift Creation. Sister... Pella, Bronya... you guys hurry up... I don't know what you are doing, but I believe you... can definitely determine whether the current Great Guardian... is still the real Guardian."
While the Iron Guards in the Iron Guard restricted area continued to resist the erosion of the Rift, the Iron Guard captain, who was ordered by Jeppard to go down to the lower area, took his team to the lower area by train.
But as soon as they reached the lower area, they saw Natasha standing on the platform waiting for them.
Captain of the Iron Guard: "We are the Silver Mane Iron Guard! We have been ordered to help everyone in the lower district resist the erosion of the Rift! Wait? You are Sister Nata? You are still so young."
Natasha: "Hmm? Are you the one I saved before? Oh, now is not the time to reminisce about the past. The Rift Creatures in the lower world have been killed. Now there are people who can resist the erosion of the Rift Creatures. Wait! You don't know that, do you?"
Natasha was so smart that when she saw these guards and listened to their words, she knew that they were most likely influenced by Pei Guang and the others. They didn't know anything and just acted rashly.
But this is a good thing. The Iron Guards who are willing to come down and help resist the Rift Creation are people who have connections with the lower area and Pei Guang. This proves that these people are worth winning over.
At this moment, the guards who had hurriedly got off the train were stunned by the question. What did they know? They also just knew that the lower district had become like this.
Chapter 80 Bronya: "A Guang, I want to..." Pei Guang: "I don't want to"
Natasha: "The underworld will need you to protect it in the future, but now you need to bring important information to the Silver Mane Iron Guard and to the commander who gave you the order."
A man who can become the captain of the Silver Mane Iron Guard may be hot-blooded, but that doesn't mean he's stupid. He understood what Natasha said in an instant, but he didn't understand.
Natasha continued to explain: "The one who sent you the letter is called Pei Guang. He and his companions spent two days killing all the Rift Creatures and helped the lower areas to plunder enough resources. There will be no problem with resources and safety in the short term. But they are in danger, because the current Great Guardian is controlled by the power of the Rift. It can even be said that the current Great Guardian is disguised as the Rift Consciousness who wants to destroy this world!"
"what?"
The several Silver Mane Iron Guards present all showed shocked expressions, and they subconsciously did not want to believe it. But when he thought of Cocolia's confusing operation, he suddenly realized it.
He understood why the Great Guardian wanted to completely isolate the upper and lower areas. This was a plan to wipe out the entire family! The lower area was completely destroyed. Without its material resources, even if the Iron Guards in the upper area were determined, they would eventually have to wait for destruction without sufficient warmth.
Natasha hurriedly urged, "So! Your mission now is not to help us resist the Rift, but to help Pei Guang and his team find out the truth. At the same time, they are outsiders, and they may stop the Rift from expanding further or even escape with all the people of Beloberg! Tell this to your superiors, and it's up to you whether you believe it or not."
This matter was very serious, and the captain of the Iron Guard was not sure. But Natasha's words proved one thing, the recent rumors in the Iron Guard restricted area might not be groundless, and the changes in the Great Guardian were indeed abnormal.
A dozen years ago, the Great Guardian didn’t have outstanding results, but he could command everyone to be a good guardian of Beloberg, but now...
At the same time, the person in front of him is Natasha. He was saved by Natasha when he was a child. Compared with the great guardian who gave mindless orders for no reason, he trusted Natasha more.
At the same time, combined with what Bronya had said before, he became more convinced of Natasha's words.
"I understand! I will take people up there and tell our commander this important information. Our commander is absolutely trustworthy."
Natasha smiled and said, "It can be seen that your commander is willing to take on the pressure from the Great Guardian and even disobey orders to come to support us as soon as he knew the truth. Your commander is definitely a person worthy of trust."
"Sister Nata, I'm back. It's great to see you alive."
Natasha laughed and scolded: "You, just hope I'm okay~ Okay, when everything is over, come to my clinic and we'll have a good chat. Before that, better protect Beloberg!"
"Yes!!!"
So the iron guards who had rushed down in a hurry ran back to the upper area again. After returning to the upper area, the iron guard who had called Jeppard before made another call.
After more than ten minutes, the call was finally connected.
Jeppard: What happened?
The Iron Guard told what he heard in the lower area, and after hearing this information, the other end of the phone fell silent.
While the Iron Guards were quickly exchanging the information they had obtained from the lower area, Sylva looked at everyone who had come to the mechanical house and listened to everything Bronya had said, her head buzzing.
Xiluwa rubbed his temple. "Pella and I have already guessed that there is something wrong with Cocolia. I didn't expect that she would be controlled by the star core. That's right! No wonder! No wonder!"
At this moment, an expression of sudden enlightenment appeared on Shiluva's face. There were some things she had never figured out for all these years. At present, she just thought that there was something wrong with Cocolia. According to Pella's way of thinking, Cocolia might want to destroy the entire Beloberg out of desperation.
But now the news brought by Bronya is even more shocking. Swarovski's data records made Silva completely believe Bronya's words, but she didn't believe that these were discovered by Bronya.
Xiluwa looked at Pei Guang who hadn't said a word from beginning to end and just watched the fun: "I guess you discovered all this. Bronya and the lower level area alone couldn't have discovered it."
Pei Guang: "Does this need to be discovered? It's an old trick. It's just that this world is too free, and many things exceeded my expectations when I was experiencing it, but it's also quite interesting. The unknown is the most attractive~"
Xiluwa sighed, "Really... We are the residents of Beloberg, but you know more than us. However... this guess... is wrong! This may be the truth."
Pei Guang: "Stop being a riddle man and tell Bronya what you know."
Sylva nodded: "Yes! Since Bronya has decided to face the consciousness of the star core, I must let her know about this. Bronya, do you know? After studying day and night, I found that the star core was the culprit of the rift. I even applied to observe the star core up close, and even said that I was thinking about destroying the star core. The result is..."
Bronya: "Mother... No! It was the will of the star core that drove you away. But because of the relationship between you and mother and the power in the city, it didn't dare to attack you casually. So everything is connected."
Shiluwa said seriously, "Yes, everything is connected. When Pera first guessed that Kokolia was going to destroy the city, I was wondering. Kokolia is not someone who despairs easily. When she was young, she was as enthusiastic and hopeful as you."
Xiluwa continued with a somewhat uncomfortable tone: "Even if she was tired, exhausted, or even said she wanted to die, according to her previous personality, she would not drag everyone to die together. But now it is clear that Cocolia... has been killed by the star core. Now all that is left is a body and a substitute disguised by the star core. Damn it! Cocolia, I will do my best to avenge you."
At this moment, Xiluwa's anger instantly rose. She wanted to destroy the star core, and she wanted to use all her life and all her strength to destroy the star core. Pei Guang and his team just wanted to find the star core or even seal and destroy it, so no matter what the cost, she would ask Pei Guang and his team to completely destroy the star core.
After hearing this, Oleg also showed a serious expression on his face: "I see, the Great Guardian shouldn't be so stupid. I didn't expect... all this is true. So what should we do next?"
When Oleg asked about the exit, Bronya looked at Pei Guang. Pei Guang glared back fiercely: "Don't look at me! I only know how to fight and kill, my brain is not working well."
Xi'er smiled and said, "Your brain is not working well? You have the best brain here, right? This is a mission, a mission entrusted to you by everyone in Beloberg."
Sanyueqi whispered beside Xing: "It's over, Guang has been controlled by Xi'er."
Xing: "What? Mission? Where? Who do you want me to hit?"
March 7: “…”
Originally, she wanted to complain to Xing Xiaoxiao, but when Xing heard that there was a task, he became excited.
Pei Guang pondered: "Now that we have obtained all the clues and evidence, and gathered most of the people who can fight, it is definitely the most appropriate choice to start a group with Cocolia. But I think we can't fight Cocolia or the will of the star core in the city."
Dan Heng agreed, "Yes, the destructive power of the star core is very strong. If a war breaks out in a city, even if the city can be protected, the damage it brings will cause a large number of deaths."
Pei Guang continued, "Bronya, didn't you plan to face the Star Core alone? I think your idea is feasible. Your mother's will must have affected the Star Core before her death. At the same time, your identity means that it wants to assimilate you instead of killing you, because you are the next successor. As long as you become a part of it, it will think it can completely destroy the city."
Pei Guang pursed his lips and continued to analyze: "At this time, you agree to meet its true form, and at the same time you must obey it to a certain extent."
"We will follow you when you move. When we reach the core of the star, we will launch the final boss battle and kill the boss. But I think our battle may not be a simple boss battle. There may also be a battle to defend Beloberg."
San Yue Qi asked worriedly, "The Battle to Defend Beloberg? The star cores are out, is there still a need to defend this place?"
Pei Guang analyzed seriously: "Our presence has made the Star Core feel the crisis, and it wants to destroy the city faster. Imagine that when the Great Guardian and the Great Guardian's successor are not in the city, and it doesn't know our whereabouts, then is this the best time to invade?"
Seele: "Indeed, even my brain can think of it. Take advantage of the enemy's weakness to launch a fierce sneak attack. If Bronya gives a few wrong orders at this time, the Iron Guards will definitely execute them with Bronya's prestige. Then I will really be dead."
Pei Guang looked at Bronya: "And during this mission, you are the most dangerous. According to my many years of experience, if you follow the villain boss to see his true form, there is a very high probability that you will be controlled by the boss, and even we cannot recover even if we kill the boss. Even so, do you still want to go?"
Bronya breathed a sigh of relief. She nodded and showed a serious expression: "This is my mission. According to the information, Beloberg has been trying to destroy the star core for seven hundred years. As the successor to the Great Guardian, I can see this opportunity. Even if it means dying, I have to do it! Pei Guang... No! A Guang, before I take action, can I entrust you with something?"
Pei Guang: "Commission? What is it?"
Bronya: "If I die... please help me... help Beloberg choose a qualified Great Guardian to continue to protect Beloberg, okay?"
Pei Guang: “…”
Dan Heng: “…”
March 7: “…”
Xing: "Guang! Promise it! The reward for this mission is so awesome."
Pei Guang placed his hand on Bronya's shoulder: "In the game, I can't refuse the main quest of repaying kindness with enmity, but in this free world, I can refuse this kind of quest."
At this moment, Cocolia didn't know that she had now become a substitute for the star core.
Chapter 81: War Preparations (Two in One)
Feeling the hand on her shoulder, Bronya replied seriously, "I will try my best to survive. Thank you for your encouragement."
In her opinion, Pei Guang was encouraging herself not to give up easily.
However, Xiluwa on the side was thinking: "But there is still a problem now. You can solve the star core, but in the process of solving the star core, how can you resist the erosion of the Rift Boundary Creatures? My brother..."
Xiluwa knew more or less what was happening on the front line. Now the attacks of the Rift Creations were getting stronger and stronger. She was worried that if the Star Core attacked Beloberg at this point in time, she and the Iron Guards would not be able to stop them.
Although she was not a city builder on the surface, whether it was her brother Jeppard's weapons or many of the equipment used by the Iron Guards, they were all maintained by Shiluwa. It can even be said that Shiluwa had a high prestige in the entire Iron Guard restricted area.
Hearing this question, Xing immediately became proud: "Of course, our invincible A Guang has already figured out a way."
March 7: "That's right!!!"
The three of them had been acting together these days, so they both knew exactly what preparations Pei Guang had made.
Xing: "Come on! Let's celebrate! Let's cheer for our invincible Hikaru!"
Pei Guang knocked on Xing's head and said, "Stop, stop, stop. Invincibility is a debuff, don't rush into it. But I do have a little preparation."
From the space station to Beloberg, some of the accessories and materials that Pei Guang looted and Estelle donated have already played a role.
Pei Guang clapped his hands, and a mass-produced Svarro appeared in front of everyone. He put his hands on his hips and proudly introduced it, "Look! This is the Svarro made by our A Guang."
Compared with the real Swarovski, the color of the Swarovski made by Pei Guang looks a little different. At the same time, just by looking at the appearance, you can see a strong sense of incongruity.
The machines on Shiwaro were all of the same style, and they were obviously made in the same factory. And the ones made by Pei Guang were... colorful, red, green, white, and black. Even the camera on his head was flashing colorful light.
The one who was most dumbfounded when looking at this colorful Swarovski was Clara.
"Mr. Swarlow... has become colorful?"
Swarovski: "The owner of the Star Destroyer once obtained my data... I didn't expect..."
Xing: "Our A Guang made twenty Swarovski! There are colorful ones, red ones, black ones, and white ones. Different costumes are matched according to the colors. Eh? It's a costume, right?"
Pei Guang nodded: "Yes! We used all the large-sized clothes we looted. In addition to the Swarovski, I have prepared dozens of various machines. At the same time, each mass-produced Swarovski is equipped with a mechanical arm equipped with a special capture device."
These mechanical arms are the weapons that Swarovski used in his memory, but due to insufficient resources, he was unable to produce them. However, Pei Guang had enough resources, and each mass-produced machine plus the main body was equipped with two special mechanical arms that could quickly restrict the actions of hostile units.
Since the boss battle was about to begin, Pei Guang had no intention of hoarding the resources in his hands. He used all the resources that could be used to build robots, such as Swarovski.
The most difficult part of Swarovski's accessories is the core chip, but it doesn't matter, Pei Guang got a lot of civilian equipment from Esta. The chips in these civilian equipment are not suitable for making intelligent machines, but they can be easily used to make mass-produced machines.
Sanyueqi boasted, "Thanks to our A Guang's cleverness, when we were fighting in the last space station, A Guang collected a lot of mechanical parts. These parts were used as mechanical core parts, and the resources looted from Rivet Town were used to make ordinary parts. A Guang clapped his hands and a robot appeared. Hey, it's a pity that I'm too stupid. I only remember how to make a self-destruct robot. Otherwise, the Swarovski I made would definitely look better."
At this moment, Dan Heng, who had been watching, was silent. It was even more interesting... Wait? What did San Yue Qi learn? Make a robot? Make a self-destructing robot.
Dan Heng suspected that he seemed to have missed something important after two days of slacking off. He looked at the mass-produced Svarro, which was at least good looking with all the red and purple. If March 7th came, he was afraid that it would be all red and purple, directly creating light pollution?
While talking, Pei Guang took out some of each robot he made: "Let Swarovski control these mass-produced machines, and let Clara maintain these machines. With Clara and Swarovski, I believe it will be enough to guard the defense line in a short time."
However, facing Pei Guang's words, Swarro, as a machine, wanted to complain. Swarro had experienced the battle with the antimatter army and witnessed the destruction of the world by the core of the star. Although many of its parts had worn out after seven hundred years, it was not bragging. Three of them and a few soldiers could hold a line of defense in a short time. How many did Pei Guang prepare? Twenty?
