Xier looked around, at the happy smiles on the faces of the residents who received the food, and then at Su Mo and Topa, who had calm expressions and no strange eyes. The butterfly-like girl's expression became much softer.
"You don't have the slightest hatred or disdain for the people in the lower class. Although it may be a little extreme, I think that this is something that the masters in the upper class would never do."
Xier also knew that her words were a bit too much and directly knocked down everyone in the upper area.
But her experiences from childhood to adulthood made it difficult for her to have a good impression of those people.
Back when the upper and lower classes had not yet been completely separated, people from the upper class had come to do charity work, but their condescending attitude and their disdainful and contemptuous attitude towards the lower class people were still fresh in the young girl's memory.
Therefore, just by comparing the details, she immediately understood that the two people in front of her were definitely not the kind of people who looked down on people in the "70s, 90s and 100s".
"I see."
Topa nodded, gaining a better understanding of the dire internal conditions of Beloberg.
While continuing to distribute the supplies, she blinked her eyes and deliberately teased the girl in front of her.
"So, you almost attacked us because of your misunderstanding, but now you just want to solve the problem by apologizing?"
If apologies were useful, what would be the point of the Interstellar Peace Company?
In fact, Topal just wanted to scare the girl so that the local could serve as a guide for him and his companions.
However, she didn't expect that Xier took this issue more seriously than she thought.
Her face immediately turned red and she explained in a panic.
"No! What I mean is, if you need any help, just tell me. I will do anything to express my apologies for what happened before!"
I have to say, this girl is still too naive.
In just a few words, she had already owed three debts that were almost impossible to repay: five million Winter City shields, the grace of saving her life, and the apology for misunderstanding the benefactor.
But these three things are clearly one and the same.
Even Topa, seeing Xier's innocent behavior, felt subconsciously embarrassed.
In this day and age, there are very few such innocent children in the interstellar society.
However, although she thought so in her heart, she did not show any shame.
On the contrary, she made a joke.
"You just said - you can do anything, right?"
There was nothing wrong with a girl saying this, but Xier suddenly thought of the request Su Mo had made before, and her thoughts wandered for a moment.
"Well, if you're joking about paying the bill with your body, please stop saying that... I won't do that kind of thing, and besides, no one would be interested in someone like me, right?"
Rather than being angry, the girl felt more confused and uncomfortable.
As a member of the Earth Fire who often flies around in the night like a butterfly of death to maintain law and order in the lower areas, Xier has extremely high martial arts skills and status.
In addition, because of her seemingly violent personality, almost no one in the entire lower class area treated her as a girl.
So, taking a look at Su Mo who seemed to be prettier than herself, she doubted whether a man with so many beautiful girls around him would really be interested in a tomboy like her.
He must be trying to squeeze me on purpose!
"Ok?"
She's such a cute girl, why would you doubt this?
Topa was a little confused by Xier's lack of confidence.
Even in her eyes, Xier is a natural beauty and is cute enough even without makeup.
If she didn't know that she was a relatively honest person, she would have thought that the other party was being pretentious.
Just as she was about to ask a few more questions, suddenly, a noisy sound came from not far away.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a dozen homeless people standing in the corner with weapons threatening ordinary residents who had received food.
They didn't dare to provoke Su Mo and others who were dressed in bright and beautiful clothes, but they dared to provoke other weak people.
If one queues normally, one person can only get food for one month, but if one robs others, one can accumulate food for a year in one go.
If we don’t do this kind of business that makes huge profits with no investment now, when should we do it?
"Damn it! These bastards!"
With just one glance, Xier understood what had happened.
She sympathizes with the residents of the lower class, believing that they have been treated unfairly. However, as a member of the Underground Fire, she has been maintaining law and order for many years and knows very well that there is no shortage of scum in the lower class.
Even among the miners with stable jobs, there are quite a few bad people, not to mention the vagrants who have lost their stable income and can only make a living by stealing and robbing.
Not to mention, those guys who dared to set up checkpoints were all familiar faces to her.
"Mr. Su Mo and Miss Topa, leave these bastards to me. I will make them confess their crimes and regret what they have done!"
Xier clenched her fists and took a step forward, intending to use her fists to maintain law and order as usual.
Although she didn't know where Su Mo and the others came from, she still felt very ashamed as a person from the lower class after seeing what the wanderers did.
"and many more!"
Before she took the second step, Su Mo stopped her.
"Don't worry, just leave this kind of small matter to Saber."
“Saber?”
Only then did Xier realize that the silly girl in gorgeous armor didn't seem to be here.
"Wait! Don't attack them directly. There is a big gang behind these guys. If we don't deal with them in a way that convinces them, the more than 100 people behind them will cause trouble, and that will be very troublesome!"
The girl immediately gave a reminder anxiously.
Given her personality, she actually doesn't like to smooth things over.
But long experience has taught her that if she simply gets rid of the few troublemakers without using the reputation of the Earth Fire Organization for long-term deterrence, the effect will be counterproductive.
In order to survive, vagrants often gather together for warmth, regardless of right or wrong, only their stance.
If the right measure is not taken, it may lead to an entire homeless group of more than a hundred people, or even other nearby groups, gathering together to cause trouble.
That would be a big trouble!
Xier’s reminder is not without reason. The means of governing at the grassroots level are often not quick and efficient.
After all, you can't just kill everyone, right?
However, faced with this situation, Su Mo had no intention of stopping.
"I know you're anxious, but don't be anxious yet."
"Because... it's over."
The moment the words fell.
"boom--!!!"
The huge storm directly caused a sharp explosion, like a bomb explosion. Along with the violent noise, the strong shock wave accurately blew away the dozen or so wanderers in one breath, and directly hung them on the wall of the mine not far away, leaving spider-web-like cracks.
The crisp sound of bones was heard, and along with this sound came the wails of these wanderers.
Some wanderers were howling like ghosts, while others fainted directly. For them, the injuries caused by comminuted fractures all over their bodies were too much of a test of their willpower.
"The Master has ordered that looting is prohibited here."
A clear and dignified voice sounded, and like the blooming of a noble flower of knighthood, Altria raised her sword high and announced her own rules.
Seeing the miserable state of the wanderers, most of the residents looked at them with admiration and gratitude towards the Knight King who was standing majestically on the battlefield.
The miners have always been attacked by vagrants. Seeing Altria fighting these criminals, they naturally will not be afraid of her.
On the contrary, normal people would only feel very relieved.
After expressing their gratitude, a few people felt worried. They were not worried that Altria would attack them, but that Altria would not be able to handle the situation that followed.
Sure enough, seeing the tragic scene before them, the group of wanderers not far away looked at each other. Although their eyes were full of fear, encouraged by the crowd, more than a hundred of them still marched towards Altria with great momentum.
"careful!"
Seele walked forward impatiently, came in front of Altria, and glared at the group of wanderers in front of them who were trying to start a collective riot.
"What do you want to do? Do you want to violate the order of the lower district and become enemies with us, the Earth Fire?"
Facing her question, the wanderers sneered and moved forward collectively.
"We just want to seek justice. This woman is bullying the weak, and you, the Earth Fire, are just going to leave it alone?"
Faced with such moral kidnapping, a glimmer of anger flashed in Xier's eyes.
"You were the ones who violated the order first, don't push your luck!"
Faced with the girl's intimidation, I noticed that she had no intention of taking direct action.
The leader of the wanderers took a bold step forward and faced the blade of the sickle directly.
"I've already said that we just want justice. As a member of the Earth Fire, you won't attack unarmed wanderers like us for such a reason, right?"
Faced with such moral oppression, Xier's hands tightened but she was unable to cut down.
Just as she was so easily played around by Su Mo and Topa before, she, with her simple sense of justice, could not kill someone in front of her who had not committed an unforgivable crime, even though she knew that the other person was a bad guy.
Seeing this, a hint of joy flashed in the eyes of the wanderer leader.
Just as he was about to ask Altria to compensate them for all the food.
Behind Xi'er, the petite Knight King tilted his head and asked in confusion...
"So, Miss Xier, why can't we do anything to them?"
Hearing this question, the two were slightly stunned.
Xier immediately gave a reason.
"After all, they haven't really committed any crime yet. We can't arrest them all, right? If we arrest them, we'll have to feed them, and we don't have that much money."
This reason is extremely true.
After hearing this, the leader of the wanderers also showed a smug expression.
"I know you can fight, and I know we can't afford to mess with you. But you can't just kill us all, right?"
"In that case, instead of wasting time, why not compensate us with the remaining food? We will find a way to take back the food given to others, so you don't have to worry about it."
"You rich young men and women, just pretend that you have successfully completed a charity, and we stray dogs will also be able to get enough supplies. What do you think? Isn't this a win-win situation?"
It has to be said that he is very aware of his nature as a troublemaker, and no one wants to be entangled with him, so cutting losses and leaving is the best option.
Even if they have little fighting power, others will not be willing to get their blood on their hands... Relying on this, he led this extreme group of wanderers to prosper and the number of members continued to expand.
Although there are complaints everywhere, as long as there is no determination to kill all of them, there is no way to stop them from kidnapping at the cost of their lives.
Everything has been going smoothly so far, and he feels that the current situation is also an opportunity.
If he could get so much hard currency, he would be able to continue recruiting soldiers and expanding his power.
Faced with such shameless behavior, Xier looked at them with disgust and anger.
"Win-win? What about the old, weak, women and children whose food you took away? Do they deserve to die?"
"This is none of my business. Who told them to—"
It's their own fault that they are weak. Before he could finish his sentence, the leader of the wanderers suddenly fell silent.
Not only him, the entire group of wanderers fell silent at the same moment.
Because, hundreds of golden sword lights appeared on their necks at some point, piercing through the skin of their necks like the sword of Damocles, revealing a little bit of blood.
"Wait! Don't be impulsive, what do you want to do?"
Feeling the life-level threat, the psychological advantage built up by the wanderer leader collapsed instantly. He immediately looked at Altria, the owner of the golden sword light, who held the lives of all the wanderers in his hands.
At this moment, the petite, pretty blonde knight girl was also looking at them, her eyes still somewhat confused.
"Xi'er, there's still one thing I don't understand."
The girl who bore the name of King Arthur spoke slowly.
"what's up?"
