Starry Sky Railway: No one understands the Amber King better than me.

Helian Hai turned his gaze to one side, drawing everyone's attention to that side.

"us......."

Bronson fell into a brief silence.

"We haven't prepared any agreement."

Yingduo then took over the conversation, her tone clear and earnest.

"Our initial purpose in coming here was to wipe out interstellar pirates. After receiving Krim V's request for assistance, we rushed here to put the principle of 'preservation' into practice. Also for the sake of 'preservation,' our primary task at this moment is to provide emergency assistance, not to discuss the market or the distant future."

Upon hearing this, Helian Hai narrowed his eyes slightly.

His gaze shifted between the company personnel on both sides, and after a moment of silence, he slowly shook his head.

"This is not the answer I wanted; to be precise, this is not the answer we wanted."

He turned to Smith.

"If we follow your plan, the future of our planet will be completely set. The fate of countless generations will be easily staked at this moment. We cannot make such a decision."

His voice deepened, and his gaze sharpened.

"We prefer to rely on ourselves. Even if we have to go through hardships and get hurt, we can earn everything we want little by little with our own hands."

"Naive. Your fragile civilization could be destroyed in the universe at any time without the company's protection."

Smith shook his head after hearing this.

"The company can provide you with the most stable growth environment and the fastest channels to integrate into the interstellar world, and these are all powers bestowed upon you by the Great Amber King."

His expression suddenly became somewhat devout, just as he had thought, this was indeed practicing the way of "preservation," providing shelter and opportunities for the development of the new civilization.

"I haven't seen any information about the company providing us with any kind of security."

A cold smile appeared on Helian Hai's face.

"Look at what's before us. Sky City has fallen, a major metropolis has been destroyed, and tens of thousands of lives have vanished silently. Is this what you call safety? If so, we can fight for it with our own strength!"

"Do you know that this is utterly insignificant in the universe? Your so-called power is utterly vulnerable in the face of a cosmic crisis."

Smith's face also darkened.

"Then let me show you what kind of power we possess without the protection of any company or the Amber King!"

Helian Hai suddenly stood up, and his subordinates beside him also stood up to look.

"You're overestimating yourselves. You want to go against the Interstellar Peace Corporation? Is this what you call being responsible for your planet? Aren't you afraid of ending up with nothing?"

Smith's tone was indifferent.

"At least until then, you will get nothing! God of War, please make your move."

Beside him, the tall man who had been sitting quietly, browsing cosmic data, slowly stood up.

He looked calmly across from him, the hidden sharpness in his eyes now completely undisguised.

"This is insane, absolutely insane! Let's call this meeting over. I hope you won't regret it!"

Smith got up to leave, but suddenly felt an incomparably sharp sensation lock onto him, and his hair stood on end.

"Gentlemen, please excuse me and rest here for a while."

The man known as the God of War spoke calmly.

......

Once the rescue access route through the building was fully opened, the search and rescue team quickly entered and began their work.

"Quick, this one's still alive!"

"There's another one here, and he's still showing signs of life!"

"There are still quite a few inside. Quick, where are the medical personnel?"

Good news kept coming in, and more and more survivors who had taken refuge were being discovered.

"Medical staff! Medical staff! There are seriously injured people here!"

An anxious voice suddenly came from the ruins, and soon two defense soldiers ran out carrying a stretcher.

On the stretcher, a petite figure was covered by a life-sustaining membrane, and through the gaps, one could see the hideous wounds on her body.

"Quick, he's still breathing! Save this child!"

"This injury is too serious; the equipment here is inadequate to treat it."

The medical staff looked somewhat grave after the examination.

"Then send a spacecraft to take them to the hospital!"

"It's too late. In this condition, if he doesn't make it to the hospital..."

The doctor's voice was somewhat low.

"The best option now is to let her pass away peacefully, leaving the chance for others who need it more..."

"What did you say? You're going to just let him die?!"

The guardsman, his hands covered in wounds, was visibly agitated and grabbed the doctor by the collar.

"Do you know... this is what her mother entrusted to me with her last breath. No matter what, you must save her!"

"You... let go."

The doctor was momentarily out of breath.

"Please stop making noise, let me take a look."

Just then, a soft and pleasant voice sounded from the side.

"who......"

The soldier turned around with a ferocious expression, but then froze.

Before them appeared a girl with a pure and beautiful face, her eyes clear and bright, as if she brought the breath of nature and life.

"you......"

The young soldier suddenly stammered and couldn't speak.

“Cecilia, you…”

Vera stepped forward with a worried expression.

“Sister Vera,” Cecilia said softly.

"I want to try to control my power... I want to save them."

Seeing the determination in the girl's eyes, Vera finally silently took a half step back.

Cecilia looked at the heavily injured body before her and slowly raised her hand. A soft green light emerged from her fingertips, but fluctuated slightly upon contact with the air, almost spreading violently.

Fortunately, the suppression field that Su Shuyan specially made for her took effect in time, confining the energy within a controllable range.

"Is it still... not working?"

The girl frowned slightly, then closed her eyes again to concentrate. Her slender, white fingers gently touched forward.

On the other side, a middle-aged officer was watching everything from a short distance away.

He put down the communicator he had just been holding to his ear. Recalling the instructions Commander-in-Chief Helian Hai had just given him, his gaze was indistinct in the shadows.

"Operate the plan now, take control of the company's rescue team immediately."

Helian Hai said this.

......

Chapter 93 Awakening Arrives

After several failed attempts to guide the energy within her body, Cecily gently closed her eyes.

The world sank into darkness, but the immense life force within her remained clearly surging.

"Still can't do it..."

She murmured to herself.

"You are a gift from the sacred tree, your existence is meant to heal all living beings." The aged voice of the former Heavenly Vine Priest echoed in his mind.

"Holy Maiden, save us! For everyone's sake, serve the Sacred Tree!"

The voices of expectation from the people of my hometown still echo in my ears.

“Child, I am not your mother. You are the child of the sacred tree. You were born with a mission,” a blurry female figure said.

"A mission?"

Cecilia murmured the word softly: to save others, to be useful to others—this was her mission, her previous understanding of the meaning of life.

But now, faced with a child whose life is about to be extinguished like a candle in the wind, she is powerless to help. So what is the meaning of her existence?

"I can't see clearly."

The surrounding darkness grew ever deeper, and Cecilia wanted to open her eyes, but she felt a force preventing her from doing so.

In the darkness that stretches to neither top nor bottom, where is the path called meaning?

"Your job is to take good care of yourself."

Vera's gentle words floated into his mind.

"You are walking on the path of abundance, and with your current energy, you have enough to support your journey and influence many people."

Ai Bai, whom I had met before, earnestly explained.

"The road? What road am I walking on?"

Saisi was somewhat confused.

"The right thing to do, little Cecilia, is to make you happy."

She remembered the priestess who had named her, though she and her hometown had long since turned to dust in her memory.

What exactly is "abundance"?
