"Is this a slave contract? Or have I misunderstood?"

Everyone present was stunned, looking at Chen Jie with confusion. Bronya, after realizing what was happening, immediately pressed for an answer.

"Did I misunderstand something?"

Chen Jie looked at the contract in his hand, nodded, and then shook his head.

"On the surface, it is indeed as you see it, but at a deeper level, it is actually a means of enslavement by capital, taming you on this planet like training animals."

"At that time, you will have no freedom whatsoever. To put it bluntly, Belloborg will be nothing more than a dog that will die if separated from its master."

"As the current High Protector, your thoughts are important. You have ample time to consider them when Toppa comes to you for discussions."

Bronya's face was filled with astonishment. March 7th and Star were already numb from listening. She tugged at Star's sleeve and began to whisper among themselves.

"Xing, what do you think after hearing this?"

Upon hearing this, Xing's eyes immediately turned ruthless.

"They should be hung on streetlights so passersby can whip them. That's too cruel! They make people dependent on them, then train people like slaves to provide a constant supply of labor."

They deserve to be killed!

A flicker of surprise crossed Chen Jie's eyes. "You've learned Xing Xue pretty quickly."

But the determination in her eyes did not waver in the slightest. She slowly lowered her head to look at Bai Lu.

"I still remember what that child said."

Bai Lu, who was treating the entire trip as a sightseeing tour, was eating snacks she had bought along the way when she noticed Bronya looking down at her. She pointed at herself in confusion.

"Me, me?"

"Yes, based on Mr. Chen Jie's explanation, I've come up with a solution: exporting the Earth Marrow Mine. When Mr. Chen Jie crafted that armor, the Amber King looked in this direction again."

"The amount of underground mineral deposits is increasing, and even previously empty mine tunnels are now showing signs of renewed mineral deposits."

Amber King Dust Tribulation paused slightly, his thoughts instantly drifting to the armor.

The Amber King wasn't actually looking at Yalilo-VI, but rather at the armor he had created. And because of the Amber King's gaze, did this armor become a mother-like entity on Yalilo-VI, giving back to him?

At this point, Bronya's expression turned bitter.

"I'd like to ask everyone, could you please help us promote this?"

Chen Jie raised an eyebrow, inexplicably connecting it to a certain behavior.

Conduct live streaming worldwide and then sell products.

This is a promising new industry chain that has emerged globally in recent years, but without a doubt, as long as it's related to commerce, the industry leader will always be the company.

Upon hearing the explanation, Bai Lu suddenly understood. Adhering to the principle of keeping the best things for herself first, even if she wasn't sure if they were good, she figured it was always right to buy them first. So she grabbed Chen Jie's hand.

"Oh! That's no problem."

"Brother Chenjie knows more than one general; he knows all the generals in the alliance. Our Luofu general may be gone, but the other six immortal ships are still fine."

Upon hearing this, Dan Heng and Chen Jie's faces darkened simultaneously.

"Bai Lu, when did I ever say that Jing Yuan would lose his position as general?"

Faced with Chen Jie's questioning, Bai Lu looked up in confusion, her expression puzzled as she tentatively whispered something.

"Didn't you say the general would definitely be punished? He's so old and has committed such a serious crime, isn't it just the right time for him to retire and enjoy his old age?"

"If other immortal ships develop good things using this ore, wouldn't they remember me, the great contributor, and give back to Luofu?"

Chen Jie immediately shut his mouth. You have to admit, Bai Lu's little brain works really fast.

If Luofu had even one person capable of shouldering the responsibility, Jing Yuan would definitely use this incident to frantically take on the blame and then demand to resign.

Now that Bai Lu had said it this far, he naturally couldn't extinguish Bronya's hopeful gaze.

"Are you sure? If you are, we can help you with this, but I can't guarantee that Xianzhou will agree to establish diplomatic relations."

Chapter 170 The Remnant Body of the Star God

"I'm absolutely certain, but I'm sorry to trouble everyone again."

At that moment, Bronya made her choice without hesitation and bowed slightly to the crowd.

"We are very grateful that you have once again extended a helping hand to us."

The lively atmosphere was immediately captured by Master March 7th.

"Hehe, no need for that. We're all friends. Let's go back and think about how to help you with this."

Now? Bronya fell silent, and this silence puzzled March 7.

“Nowadays, Bellenberg is the company’s eyes everywhere, and I have an obligation to make sure all of Bellenberg’s citizens understand this.”

"But I'm more afraid that most of the people at Belloberg won't see the deeper meaning behind this contract and will side with the company. I hope they will."

After hearing this, Chen Jie's eyes flickered slightly. "I understand what you mean. You need us to help you notify the Earth Fire in the lower city so that the people from Earth Fire can do ideological work on the others, right?"

"You think the company won't excessively monitor us, or at least not so obviously, to facilitate the spread of information, right?"

Upon hearing this, Bronya nodded solemnly: "Yes, ever since the company's people showed up, they've been keeping a close eye on our official personnel, including the Silver Mane Iron Guards of Belloborg, even from a distance."

March 7 was speechless when Bronya said something like that.

"Isn't this company going too far? They just owe us money, they didn't sell their homes to them."

"No, for the company personnel on this mission, Yalilo-VI is already their company's property, and they all feel that Yalilo-VI is incapable of repaying this debt."

Chen Jie's words, as he shook his head, completely made March 7 understand just how disliked the people in the company were, and Chen Jie's words were further confirmed.

Considering the company's ability to directly storm into the lower city and intend to seize the large mining area, it can be confirmed that what Chen Jie said was correct.

Having realized what was happening, March 7th nodded solemnly.

"Alright! No problem, train crew exploration team, let's go!"

Chen Jie glanced at March 7th, then turned and pushed Bai Lu next to her.

"You all take good care of Bailu, I'm going to find someone."

"Huh? Eh? Looking for someone? Who are you looking for?"

After a moment of stunned silence, March 7th accepted White Dew, looking somewhat bewildered as he gazed at Dust Calamity.

"You'll find out soon enough. I'll be leaving now."

After finishing his sentence, Dustfall turned and left the administrative district, leaving behind Bronya and Jepard, who were somewhat puzzled, as well as the train crew who were used to it.

"Who is Mr. Chen Jie going to see?"

Xing shrugged slightly: "Who knows? Chen Jie said that more than once on the Immortal Ship, and it turned out he secretly went to see his girlfriend."

"He still won't introduce his girlfriend to us. When we ask him, he says he doesn't know. It's outrageous!"

Both were startled by his words. March 7th then realized what was happening and looked at Jepard with confusion.

"Jepard, why didn't you say a word the whole time?"

"Oh, that? My current identity is somewhat sensitive. Besides being a garrison officer, I am also Belloborg's first and last line of defense."

"Therefore, I am not suited to speak in this kind of setting."

March 7th, Xing, and the still-child Bailu couldn't understand Jepard's explanation at all.

"Hiss, we can understand the first line of defense, right? Just like the general of the Immortal Ship, leading the charge to break through the defenses. But what does the last one mean?"

Seeing March 7th and his bewildered expression, Danheng began to explain.

"Because of that armor, Jepard's strength can be considered among the strongest in the entire universe, while Beloberg suffers from a severe gap in strength. It is precisely because of this severe gap in strength that he is last."

"Oh, I see. But alright, let's stop this small talk and head down to the lower city to find Seele and the others."

"Speaking of which, we didn't see Seele in the large mining area just now. Shouldn't Seele be the most enthusiastic about this kind of thing?"

At the same time, Dust Calamity, having left the administrative district, vanished into thin air and arrived in the lower city, where he saw Sambo waving goodbye to a company employee in the distance.

"Oh well, the train crew will handle the Belloberg issue anyway, and if all else fails, there's always Dustfall."

"Old Sambo, making some money shouldn't be a problem, right? Hehe."

Just as Sangbo was looking at his credit points on his phone, he felt as if he had been hit in the butt by a train, and he was sent flying more than ten meters.

"Hey! Who's so stupid as to hit me, an old man with rheumatism?"

"I knew it! That's how Toppa and his men managed to sneak up so silently over to the large mining area in the lower city. You really are selling intelligence, Sambo Koski."

Sambo, who had just gotten up while touching his skin, felt a chill run down his spine and stopped rubbing his buttocks. He quickly turned around and started smiling apologetically.

"Oh my, isn't this Mr. Dust, Belloberg's savior? What brings you here?"

Looking at Sambo's smirking face, Chen Jie felt a bit disgusted; this guy was subtly testing his limits.

Initially, the plan was to sell Jepard's armor demonstration videos to the company, but this was stopped by the company itself. Now, the company is directly selling Belloberg's geographical intelligence to expedite the debt collection process.

What on earth is going on in this guy's head? All he thinks about are credit points?

What kind of sycophantic behavior?

Chen Jie looked at this guy with a complicated expression. He really couldn't understand what this guy's purpose was, or what the point of doing these things was.

You say Sambo Koski just likes money? He certainly doesn't believe it.

For some reason, seeing Sangbo's forced smile, Chen Jie also laughed.

"I'll grant you three days of freedom, to end all the troubles of this mortal world, how about it?"

Instantly, Sambo's smile froze on his face, and cold sweat even broke out on his forehead.

"Huh? This...this doesn't mean they have to kill me, does it? Even if we don't sell this stuff, Topa and the others will still charge into the city."

"That dimensional piggy bank... if I don't act quickly, they might not need the information I sold them in a few hours."

"Besides, because of what happened last time, I guessed you would come this time, so I carefully selected a gift for a long time. Do you like it?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Jie couldn't help but scoff: "Can you get me the remains of a Star God for research? If so, I'll take this gift."

Sang Bo had just pulled out an exquisitely wrapped gift box from behind him when he heard this, and he froze on the spot, staring at Chen Jie in disbelief.

What is that? The remains of a Star God? What is he planning to do? Is he using the remains of a Star God to make a suit of armor like Jepard's?
