Even Bronya might not want to arrest him under such circumstances.

Stephen Chow was very curious about just how far Cocolia could go...

Or will she come to her senses?

This night was not peaceful.

Fearful screams, soldiers' roars, the clash of weapons, the firing of muskets.

Several sounds mixed together woke Stephen Chow from his deep sleep.

"what happened?"

Zhou Xingxing walked to the window with some doubt, and what he saw shocked him.

A large number of Rift creatures suddenly poured into Beloborg, and many Silvermane Iron Guards were fighting against them.

Zhou Xingxing spotted Jepard in the area where the rift creatures were most concentrated.

How could the Rift creatures launch a large-scale attack on Beloborg?

Stephen Chow frowned. Logically speaking, this kind of thing shouldn't have happened.

Any rift creatures outside of Beloborg who want to invade this place must first break through to the front lines.

However, the front line has natural barriers like the Rotating Canyon, so even if the front line is breached, they shouldn't be able to get through.

Unless... someone deliberately let them in, or summoned them in...

"Is it the star core...? Did my words make it anxious?"

Just as Stephen Chow was frowning in thought, there was a knock on the door.

"Xing! Wake up! Something's happened!"

A hurried voice came from outside the door on March 7th.

"I've already seen it."

Stephen Chow pushed open the door, and March 7th and others were already standing at the door with serious expressions.

"lets go!"

Zhou Xingxing nodded, and the group rushed out of the Goethe Hotel.

At this point, we certainly can't ignore the creatures from the rift.

"Cover the retreat of the civilians, the rest of you follow me and hold them off!"

Jepard's shout was extremely penetrating, leading a large number of Silvermane Iron Guards to form an iron defense line.

People kept escaping through the gaps in the Silver Mane Iron Guards to the rear, and the scene was chaotic.

Fortunately, the Silvermane Iron Guard is quite powerful and has no problem dealing with ordinary flying insect-shaped Rift Creatures.

Just when everyone thought things were under control, two enormous figures suddenly appeared on the street that was supposed to be blocked off.

"Those are... ice and fire from outer space!"

Dan Heng's eyes widened when he saw the two shattered creations. Creatures of this level were not something that ordinary Silvermane Iron Guards could handle.

"Everyone, hold the line! Our families are behind us! We absolutely cannot let these monsters into Beloborg!"

Jepard's figure was low and solemn as he stared intently at the approaching, menacing Rift Creature.

"Jepard! We're here to help!"

March 7th rushed forward and casually cast an ice shield on Jepard.

"You...this monster is extremely dangerous. You should retreat to the rear defensive line immediately. Please leave this place to me."

Seeing the group of people come to help, Jepard felt a surge of warmth in his heart.

But when Jepard thought about the dangers of the outer universe's ice and flames, he worried that the others might get hurt.

"Don't worry, we're all very strong."

Qiong smiled confidently, the baseball bat already in her hand.

"We have experience dealing with Rift Creatures and won't cause you any trouble."

Dan Heng nodded as well.

Seeing that everyone was determined, Jepard could no longer refuse.

"Alright, then I'll leave it to you all. I'll hold off these two monsters while you find opportunities to attack."

Jepard's eyes suddenly hardened, and he slammed the violin case heavily onto the ground.

"In the name of Landau, I forge this will through ice and snow, and it will never end!"

A massive ice wall solidified and slammed down on the incoming Rift Creature.

At the same time, the ice wall blocks the surrounding terrain, so the only way for the Rift creatures to enter Beloborg is through this passage.

"Silvermane Iron Guards, listen to my command! Hold your ground and do not let any Rift Creature enter Beloborg."

"Fellow travelers from afar, follow me into battle!"

Chapter 20 Bronya's Choice

“Mother! You must have misunderstood something! I have spent time with them, and their kindness is definitely not feigned. The creations of the Rift could not have been brought here by them.”

Inside Kripper Castle, Bronya stood below the stage, pleading with Cocolia, whose gaze was cold and sharp.

"Bronya, remember your identity. You are a soldier. Obeying orders is what you should do."

Cocolia's voice was devoid of any emotion, filled with coldness.

Bronya shuddered involuntarily at the cold words.

Although Cocolia had given her orders more than once, this time Bronya felt that the person in front of her was a complete stranger.

It was as if the person in front of her was not the mother who had raised her from childhood.

"But... this is the first time in so many years that we have welcomed visitors from outer space. Are we going to cut off our last hope like this? Mother, ice and snow and rifts have plagued us for hundreds of years. Our resources are becoming increasingly scarce, and we can't hold on much longer."

Bronya tried everything she could to persuade Cocolia.

Despite having done this futile task countless times, Bronya hoped that at least this time, Cocolia would listen to her properly.

“Follow my orders, Bronya. You only see the surface. Don’t forget who raised you and put you in this position. Don’t let me down.”

The cold glint in Cocolia's eyes sent a chill down Bronya's spine, and she knew that saying anything more would be futile.

"Yes...Guardian..."

Bronya bowed and turned to leave, but her clenched fists and clenched teeth silently spoke of her resistance.

......

"A magical realm unfolds, a dreamlike wonder!"

With Dan Heng's shot, the ice of the outer universe finally fell.

"Well done!"

Jepard was overjoyed, never expecting to be able to kill the extraterrestrial ice, which was a meat grinder for the Silvermane Iron Guards, with zero casualties.

"I want the lion's share of the credit!"

Qiong was beaming with pride, knowing that her strike had been crucial in breaking the outer universe's ice defenses and knocking it to the ground.

"Qiong seems so much stronger than when she fought the Doomsday Beast!"

March 7th looked at Qiong with some surprise; her progress was too obvious.

"hey-hey."

Qiong chuckled, then raised an eyebrow at Stephen Chow.

Zhou Xingxing smiled helplessly. With the five-star Hunting Light Cone, Qiong was indeed the strongest attacker among them at present.

"You, as the older brother, also need to work harder."

Seeing this, March 7th patted Stephen Chow on the shoulder with a grin.

Stephen Chow shrugged helplessly.

What can we do? We just can't draw a five-star character.

The outer cosmic flame roared and attacked the group, but it had previously managed to kill one of the two it had fought.

At this moment, one was no longer a problem. In less than a minute, the Flame of the Outer Universe followed in the footsteps of its brother.

"Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!!!!"

The Silvermane Iron Guards behind cheered when they saw this.

"Ow!!!!"

Qiong didn't care about her image at all, and wildly roared along with him, raising her baseball bat.

"Iron Guards, don't let your guard down! No one knows if the Rift Creatures will attack again. Maintain formation!"

Seeing the Silvermane Iron Guards cheering and their formation somewhat scattered, Jepard spoke solemnly.

"Yes!"

Upon hearing Jepard's command, the Silvermane Iron Guards responded in unison with a loud and clear voice.

The battle just now greatly boosted the morale of the Silvermane Iron Guards present.

"We owe a great debt to our friends this time. Otherwise, we might have lost more than a dozen Silvermane Iron Guard brothers if we wanted to take down these two monsters."

Jepard smiled. The two strongest Rift Creatures had already been eliminated, and the remaining smaller Rift Creatures could be easily dealt with by the Silvermane Iron Guards.

"You're welcome. It was nothing. How could we stand idly by when something like this happens?"

He chuckled on March 7th.

Jepard's address has subtly shifted from "outsider" to "friend," indicating that he has gained the approval of the group.

"It's a small favor for you, but it concerns the safety of Belloberg for us. Thank you again, everyone."

Jepard then bowed.

Seeing this, everyone could only laugh and did not continue to stop him. Jepard felt that he was cold when they first met, but after spending some time together, he found that he was actually a very nice person, just a bit stubborn.
