Starry Sky Railway: The Warden's Interrogation of Kafka

Dan Heng shook his head and calmly analyzed, "The Silver Mane Iron Guards were just caught off guard by us. It won't be long before they catch up and come in."

Then, Danheng offered a solution: "Let's move along the road and make sure it's safe first."

Upon hearing this, March 7th and Xing nodded in agreement: "Agreed!"

.......

.......

Meanwhile, on the other side...

After Bronya and the others entered the Rift.

They were also attacked by the Rift Creators.

However, the scene was quite different from the life-or-death battle the Iron Guards had imagined...

"Hey hey hey~~"

"Don't run away, my little cuties~~~"

"I've missed you so much after all these years!!"

Gu Yan stretched out his hand forward.

Swish swish swish!!!

Countless iron chains flew out.

They kept flying towards the fleeing Rift Creatures.

Clang! Clang!

Clang!

Each chain was precisely looped around the neck of the Rift Creature.

"Chirp!!"

"Chirp!!"

In no time at all.

Several crystalline element creations composed of different properties were bound and held in Gu Yan's hand by his iron chains.

They are, respectively, the frost crystal creation with an ice-blue body, the flame creation with a fiery red body, the thunder creation with purple light radiating lightning, and the wind-attribute green wind creation.

Although they only possessed the most basic intelligence, they could still sense the terrifying energy fluctuations emanating from Gu Yan that were so powerful they caused their bodies to shatter.

They frantically emitted unique cries and desperately tried to fly away into the sky.

However, because they were bound by Gu Yan's chains, the way they gathered in the sky looked like colorful balloons.

"Hey Bronya, how about I give you a few to take back as decorations?"

"Don't worry, I have already removed the side effects and toxins of the Rift Energy, so it is harmless to the human body."

As Gu Yan spoke, he was about to hand out a few chains to Bronya, whose expression turned somewhat strange.

"Need not."

Bronya shook her head.

Using creations from the Rift as decorations?

Only Gu Yan could come up with such a bizarre approach.

"Really? That's a real shame."

Gu Yan smiled indifferently, then clenched his right hand.

Bang!! Bang bang bang!!

"Chirp!!"

"Chirp!!"

"Chirp!!"

One by one, the Rift Creatures bound by iron chains turned into elemental crystals and dissipated into the air after letting out a shrill scream.

Bronya's lips twitched at the sight.

She vividly recalled the feelings of the Rift Creator that Gu Yan had tormented back then.

Back then, Gu Yan did the same thing, capturing these bird-like creations from the Rift Realm and crushing them one by one, releasing a dazzling array of colors.

Even as a young child, she was quite captivated by it.

This guy....

No wonder he became a prison warden.

Bronya thought to herself.

Chapter 27 What if Gu Yan is the mastermind behind this?

Within the edge pathway.

Danheng and the others also ran quickly along the road.

As March 7th ran, his tone was somewhat indignant: "What exactly happened? Why did that Great Guardian send people to capture us?"

"It's despicable to arrest us when we're sound asleep."

Dan Heng seemed to have sensed something, and he said calmly, "That woman has an unsettling aura about her... Intuition never lies."

"Moreover... that aura... seems similar to the aura of the star core that the warden gave to Himeko."

"But Himeko's star core energy is even more unsettling."

Upon hearing this...

March 7th and Xing exchanged a glance.

"You mean... the Star Core is with the High Warden of Beloberg??"

"Or rather, the other party has some connection with the star core?!"

March 7th's tone was somewhat shocked, and his eyes showed disbelief.

The star core is a source of calamity.

It can be said that the reason why the planet Arillo is covered in ice and snow is precisely because of its core.

Even the creations of the rift realms originated from the star core.

However, he is the Great Guardian who protects Beloborg.

That woman, Cocolia, seems to have used the power of a star core?

This is an extraordinary matter.

"Well, that's just my guess."

"But if the guess is correct... then... it would explain why this happened this morning."

Dan Heng nodded, his eyes somewhat serious.

Xing thought for a moment and said, "So when we went to Cocolia to discuss the star core, it was like walking into a trap?"

"Actually, the other side has been using the star core to do some things that no one knows about?"

Xing's words also made the expressions of March 7th and Danheng heavy.

"Indeed, this explains everything clearly."

"The Great Guardian needs the Star Core to do something extraordinary."

"And we outsiders who came for the star core naturally became a thorn in their side."

"The Great Guardian pretended to let us stay and appease us."

"Then, in the morning, they wanted to wipe us all out."

"This whole thing is a conspiracy from beginning to end!"

March 7th's tone was one of shock.

How could this be so outrageous?!

They've been to so many planets.

Why are there so many more problems now that we've arrived on Planet Yalilo?

Why would anyone want to borrow the power of a rift in a star core?

Are they out of their minds?

Uh... no, that's not right.

On March 7th, the pendant that Gu Yan had given to Ji Zi suddenly flashed through her mind.

That star core seems to be even more dangerous.

Tsk, they're all a bunch of lunatics.

March 7th's expression was somewhat unusual.

"In any case, it seems I should tell Gu Yan about this."

"He seems to know Bronya and the others; he should be able to persuade the High Guardian and Bronya."

March 7th seemed to have thought of something, and thus came up with a solution.

Xing shook her head, her tone somewhat strange: "But what if... Gu Yan is the mastermind behind this?"

These words were spoken.

The surrounding space became quiet.

Dan Heng took a breath and nodded slightly: "That's also possible."

"If Gu Yan is behind this, using the star core to do something, then I'm afraid..."

Dan Heng's tone was somewhat grave: "I'm afraid this exploration mission is beyond the capabilities of the three of us."
