On March 7th, I was just thinking that the lower-level area was already short of supplies, so it seemed inappropriate to give the train crew such a grand welcome.
"Okay, then we'll take care of the supplies."
Behind him, Zhou Xingxing and Qiong took over the conversation, looking smug.
"this..."
Natasha paused for a moment. She had only wanted to thank the train crew, so it wouldn't be appropriate to ask them to provide more supplies.
"Don't worry, Nata, Xing and Qiong said they brought a ton of supplies this time. If we don't distribute them all to everyone, it'll be a real hassle to carry them all away."
Seele noticed Natasha's concerns and quickly spoke up, then winked at Zhou Xingxing and Qiong.
"That's right, it's easy for us to go down the mountain but hard to go up. If you don't take this, it will be troublesome for us to move it."
Stephen Chow quickly nodded in agreement.
"Okay, take it. Otherwise, you're looking down on me, Galaxy Baseball Man."
Qiong nodded in response to the mission.
"Isn't it us?"
"do not mind the details."
"Hehe, thank you all for those."
Seeing the two of them like this, Natasha dispelled her concerns and accepted their kindness.
Subsequently, news spread that the train crew had sponsored a banquet for the ground fire, and everyone was incredibly excited.
Even in Panyan Town, many people live a life of constant hunger, not to mention the homeless. This full meal made everyone extremely grateful, and they almost burst into tears.
"Then you should get some rest. We'll arrange for someone to help you. I'll have Seele see you off."
Oleg gave Seele his instructions and then turned to prepare for the banquet.
"Let's go, tomorrow will probably be the liveliest day in the lower district in years."
Seele chuckled, looking eager to see what was going on.
Everyone nodded, and just as they were about to follow Seele back to the entrance of the Goethe Hotel, they saw Schwarz and Clara standing at the door waiting for them.
"Swarovski, what are you doing blocking this way? Want to fight?"
Seele got annoyed when Schwarz kept pestering her.
“Seele of the Earth Fire, don’t get agitated. According to our previous agreement, they should talk to me now.”
Schwarz's tone remained emotionless.
"Sister Seele, I'm sorry, Clara tried very hard to persuade Mr. Schwarz to talk again tomorrow, but Mr. Schwarz is adamant..."
"It's alright, I'll go talk to Schwarzkopf. You guys continue to rest."
Stephen Chow came out and addressed the crowd.
"Yeah, I don't think I have anything to talk to this big guy... I'm outta here!"
March 7th ran into the Goethe Hotel as he spoke, still feeling a chill run down his spine from Schwarzkopf's icy gaze earlier.
"Is it okay?"
Dan Heng asked Zhou Xingxing with slight concern.
Although I really want to go, I need to treat the injuries I sustained from being struck by the outer cosmic flames.
"Don't worry, Danheng, you go and heal your wounds first. It's just some stuff about the star core. You might not know as much about this as I do, so just leave it to me."
Seeing that Stephen Chow had said that, everyone stopped talking and, being exhausted from the previous battle, went to the hotel to rest.
"Shall I go with you?"
But Bronya didn't leave; instead, she leaned against Stephen Chow and asked in a questioning tone.
"Okay, as long as you don't mind the fatigue."
"It's okay, I'm not tired from being with you."
Bronya smiled happily when she saw that Stephen Chow had agreed.
"This isn't the right place to talk, let's go somewhere else."
Seeing that only four people remained, Swallow turned and walked out of Rocky Town.
The group arrived in the suburbs, and only then did Schwarz turn around and stare at Stephen Chow.
"Let's get straight to the point and not waste this world's precious time."
"The information you're wondering about regarding the Star Core is actually stored within you. No one except the Great Guardian should know it. But unfortunately, I already know everything I should know. As for why, it's because I come from outside this planet. It's simple: the Star Core doesn't only exist on Yalilo-IV."
Stephen Chow smiled calmly, while Schwarzkopf's eyes flashed red, his alert level rising sharply.
"Don't get agitated, Schwarz. Your duty is to protect the lower zone. We have no conflict of interest, and your calculations aren't accurate, are they? Otherwise, why would you be surprised that the rift could actually be destroyed?"
Upon hearing Stephen Chow's words, the light in Schwarzkopf's eyes indeed calmed down.
"You are indeed unexpected, but that doesn't mean you can touch the star core. According to records, countless humans who have come into contact with the star core have all been controlled by greed or desire, ultimately destroying themselves."
Schwarz still has no intention of backing down.
Seeing this, Stephen Chow decided not to waste any more words.
"Instead of these empty words, let me say something practical. I can make the lower district exist for many more years. Is that enough to get your help?"
"Get my help and understand your needs, but I will make a decision after you tell me how to make the lower districts exist for many more years."
These words immediately struck at Schwarz's weakness. After all, Schwarz only had two goals, one of which was to protect the Lower Zone. He would do anything to delay the destruction of the Lower Zone even by one more day.
Of course, this is on the premise that it does not conflict with another objective.
"Want to know? But first you have to promise me one thing."
"I need to determine whether to grant your request based on the veracity of what you say."
"I have discovered a huge mineral deposit."
Upon hearing this news, Schwarzlo remained silent for a long time.
Clara had only told the Wanderers about this before, and then the Rift creatures attacked, so Swallow was unaware of it yet.
"Calculations show that the mineral marrow in the lower layer is almost depleted. Even if new mineral marrow is found, it's impossible for it to survive for many more years as you claim."
Schwarzko made a very rational judgment and did not blindly believe Stephen Chow's words.
“You’re right, but even if I discover a small mine that’s only enough to keep the lower zone alive for another ten days or so, you will still agree to my request.”
Stephen Chow looked confident. "Don't even mention ten days or half a month, you, Schwarz, would have to agree even in just one day."
“You are very smart. Indeed, even if it is an extremely small mineral vein, I will still grant your request. Now, state your request.”
Schwarz nodded, then stared at Stephen Chow.
Stephen Chow smiled slightly, glanced at Bronya, and then slowly spoke.
"My request is simple: I need your help to launch a counterattack on the upper districts."
Chapter 45 Hook
Upon hearing this, the red light in Schwarzkopf's eyes began to flicker again.
Bronya, standing to the side, also stared wide-eyed at Stephen Chow with a look of astonishment.
"Xing... what do you mean by counterattacking the upper districts?"
Bronya asked, her voice trembling.
"Literally, I plan to lead the people of the lower zone to the upper zone to completely defeat the star core and permanently resolve the hidden dangers of this planet."
Zhou Xingxing looked at Bronya, knowing that Bronya would definitely be shocked.
Although he had previously said that he would take care of the Star Core, he had never told Bronya how.
Another reason is that when he was trampled underfoot by the Windbreaker, he felt the power of protection for a moment.
However, due to Silver Wolf's later intervention, the protective power seemed to have faded again.
But since the storage provider had contacted me before, does that mean I can also take the initiative to contact the storage provider?
The protective force is located in Everwinter Ridge; to get there, one must enter Belloberg and then cross the Iron Guard Forbidden Zone.
This isn't a game; there aren't even 20 Silvermane Iron Guards in the Iron Guard restricted area combined, so they can easily bypass them.
Belloborg's Silvermane Iron Guards number in the hundreds, so forcing their way through is clearly unrealistic.
“In addition, we are currently wanted by the Silvermane Iron Guard. Before that, I need you to take control of the Silvermane Iron Guard from Cocolia.”
Zhou Xingxing looked at Bronya, who looked troubled, and said in a deep voice.
“I’ve thought about rebelling against my mother… but I never imagined it would be this way.”
Bronya hesitated; this method, which was tantamount to launching a coup, could very likely plunge the people into panic.
“I know what you’re hesitating about, but do you remember when we went to the refugee camp to distribute supplies? I could see that their gratitude towards you was genuine, and I believe that those people have the ability to distinguish right from wrong. Cocolia is no longer the Great Guardian. If we clash head-on, the Silvermane Iron Guards caught in the middle will be the first to suffer. The Star Core won’t care about their lives; it will only make them sacrifice themselves in vain.”
Bronya was persuaded by Stephen Chow through reasoning and emotional appeal.
“You’re right. I can’t let the Silvermane Iron Guards sacrifice themselves in vain. To fight against Mother… no, to fight against the Star Core, I will do it!”
A moment later, Bronya's gaze hardened, just as it had when she was the Silvermane Iron Guard commander in the Upper District.
"So, what do you need me to do?"
After listening to their plan for a while, Schwarz asked...
"I'm afraid not all Silvermane Iron Guards will listen to Bronya. After all, the High Guardian is the supreme ruler. So, when we counterattack the Upper District, firstly, I need you to protect everyone in the Lower District. There is only one enemy in this battle, and that is Cocolia, who is controlled by the Star Core. I don't want anyone else to get hurt because of this. Secondly, try to control the enemy's Silvermane Iron Guards, but don't harm them. I believe that with your strength and that of your mechanical legion, it won't be difficult for you to do this."
“I understand, but nearly 90% of the mechanical legion was damaged on the way to Panyan Town, so I cannot guarantee that the mission will be completed perfectly.”
Schwarz nodded, but revealed the problem of insufficient combat power on his side.
"Those robots should be repairable, right? I'll go with Qiong to deal with the rift in the core of the furnace later. Please repair the damaged robots as soon as possible."
"With a perfect plan, eliminating the rift and repairing the robot army, the success rate of the mission will reach 99.976%."
"It's still not 100%..."
Stephen Chow couldn't help but feel ashamed.
