Star Dome Railway: Kevin's Pioneering Journey

Then, the ground began to tremble. Even from a distance, the upper and lower areas of Beloberg could feel the vibrations and heat flow, but the vibrations soon disappeared. The heat in the city did not dissipate. The temperature was several degrees higher than usual, but it was gradually decreasing because the release of the Skyfire had ended.

At this time in Yongdong Ridge, the flames quietly retreated, leaving only the mess underfoot, magma rolling, and heat steaming. Compared with the cold wave, this scene now looks more like doomsday.

Kevin stood in the air, and he took a full blow from the Skyfire Unsheath, but was unharmed.

This time Kevin did not rely solely on his body to resist. When the flames hit his body, the blessing mark on his back became hot, as if it was playing some kind of role, as if it was dispersing the attack on Kevin.

Without thinking too much, Kevin stared at the person in his hand. At this time, the Mother of Illusion looked scattered and broken.

The darkness covering her face slowly faded away, and Cocolia's face gradually appeared, but her face was pale without a trace of blood, and her eyes were dull, as if her soul had been taken away - her consciousness was almost completely integrated with the star core.

Seeing this, Kevin slightly clenched his fingers and injected dark red power into her body. Cocolia's consciousness and the star core began to separate.

Then, Cocolia's dull eyes gradually regained some luster. She looked at Kevin with a complicated expression without saying a word. Kevin also looked at her silently, but loosened his hand that was pinching her neck.

Cocolia's body fell weakly and she knelt on the space platform created by Kevin, with the rolling magma under her feet.

Cocolia covered her neck in pain, gasping for breath. Her body was completely hollowed out by the star core. Her figure seemed to become more transparent and she was not far from death.

Kevin naturally had a way to save her, and could even restore her to her best condition instantly, but why did he do this? This was indeed the result she deserved most, and he just accelerated the arrival of this result.

The hypocritical idea of ​​reviving her and letting her atone for the sins of the dead is simply ridiculous. I am not a saint, nor am I that boring.

Cocolia slowly raised her head and looked at Kevin, asking in a pleading tone. She knew that as a loser, she had no right to make any requests.

"Can... can I take one last look at Bronya?"

Kevin nodded calmly. Cocolia was still thinking about Bronya at this time.

[She really made me cry to death! 】

The voice in my head suddenly sighed.

Let the mother and daughter see each other for the last time. Kevin raised his hand and waved behind him, and the people who had evacuated were instantly teleported behind him.

Everyone looked around at the bleak scene and couldn't help but feel surprised. Is Kevin so strong?

Walter was staring at the creation engine that had melted into a pool of molten iron not far away, and couldn't help but lose his mind.

As for why he was able to distinguish it from a pool of molten iron, perhaps it was because he and the giant robot had an inexplicable sympathy for each other.

Kevin glanced at Walter and thought that this guy must be sad about the creation engine. Now is not the time yet, so he will deal with it later.

Seeing Cocolia kneeling on the ground in a slumped state, Bronya quickly walked past Kevin and tried to hold her shoulders, but her hand went straight through.

"Mother!"

Bronya shouted anxiously.

Cocolia shook her head and comforted Bronya.

"Don't be sad, Bronya. When I chose this path, there was no turning back."

"Bronya... my daughter, I have always kept you under my protective cloak, but now you have grown to a level that I could never have imagined..."

"I... am not a competent guardian, Beloberg... I will leave it to you and everyone else from now on."

Bronya wiped the tears from her eyes and choked.

"Mother, I understand...I understand..."

Cocolia looked at Bronya with relief. She raised her hand and put it in front of her chest. With a painful groan and the energy escaping, she took out the star core intact.

At this point, the core of the star had already lost its vitality. In order to resist the unleashing of the Heavenly Fire, it had almost exhausted all of its energy. Now, it could be crushed with just a simple pinch.

Kevin took the star core handed over by Cocolia, and with alternating hands, purple energy instantly enveloped the star core, and the star core instantly lost its luster - it was successfully sealed.

After doing all this, Kevin looked up at Cocolia.

As the star core left her body, Cocolia's body no longer had any support and quickly fell apart. She just looked at Bronya, and her ice-blue eyes once again glowed with amber light, and she smiled with relief.

The collapse continued to spread from the inside out. Cocolia glanced at the silent Shiluwa at the end. She opened her mouth but no sound came out.

But Shiluwa understood the meaning - I'm sorry.

Cocolia's body turned into starlight and dissipated in front of everyone's eyes. Bronya couldn't help but reach out to grab it, but she caught nothing.

Xier walked to her side, without saying a word, but silently wiped away her tears and patted her back to comfort her.

Shiluwa sighed as she looked at the scattered stars.

"Cocolia didn't realize it until the last moment..."

……

With Seele's comfort, Bronya gradually calmed down. She turned to look at everyone and was about to say something when Kevin on the side spoke.

"Let's talk about it when we get back."

As he said this, he looked at the surrounding environment again and explained to everyone.

"I need to take care of the situation here. What happens after the star core is sealed also needs me and Walter to deal with it. I'll take you away first."

No one had any opinion on Kevin's words. They just nodded in confusion, but no one asked.

Seeing that no one had any objections, Kevin raised his hand and waved, and everyone disappeared from the spot in an instant.

Only Kevin and Walter were left.

……

Everyone was teleported back to Shiluwa's perpetual motion mechanical house. There was no change here from before, after all, they had only been away for a few hours.

Jeppard heaved a sigh of relief and reported to Bronya that he was going to the Iron Guard restricted area and should not delay any longer.

Looking at Jeppard's departing back, Shiluwa smiled helplessly and explained to everyone.

"That's just his personality. So much has happened at once, and he hasn't fully accepted it yet. I guess he wants to go to the Rift Realm to kill monsters to divert his attention."

Everyone nodded, but didn't care too much.

San Yueqi picked up the tilted chair and sat down on it. She stretched her whole body, leaned against the back of the chair and stretched herself lazily.

"Great! Now, the crisis in this world has been resolved, right?"

Dan Heng folded his arms across his chest and shook his head.

"The wind and snow are so fierce that it is difficult to stop suddenly."

"After the star core is sealed, the cold wave will slowly subside. The rift in this world will no longer expand violently, but it will not disappear out of thin air either. Yalilo-VI has the possibility of regaining vitality, but that will take time..."

"These all depend on your own efforts."

As he said this, he looked at Bronya.

Bronya grabbed her wrist and thanked everyone.

"Thank you, everyone."

San Yueqi waved his hands somewhat embarrassedly.

"The main thing is to thank Brother Kevin. He has a 100% participation rate and is the one with the highest output. Although he is not here now, you can thank him when he comes back."

As he spoke, March Seven saw that Bronya was silent again, and thought that she was still sad about Cocolia, so he hurried to comfort her.

"Bronya, are you okay? Don't push yourself."

Bronya shook her head and explained.

"I was just thinking about something."

"There is still a lot to do... The previous battle caused a huge commotion, and the residents of the city must have noticed it. There are many doubts that need to be explained, and many truths that need to be made public..."

"I just don't know how to get everyone to accept this..."

Before Bronya could finish her words, she was interrupted by Xing.

"Disguise the truth."

Xing looked at Bronya seriously and said that this time she was giving serious advice.

"what do you mean……"

Bronya instantly understood what Xing said.

"To cover one lie with another - but if I do this, I..."

"Just do it, Bronya."

Xier, who had been silent for a long time, suggested.

"Xie'er?"

Bronya was a little surprised that Seele would agree with this idea.

Facing Bronya's puzzled expression, Seele fiddled with the ahoge on her head.

"I...I don't know how to explain it. I just feel like there's no other way."

"In the lower district, we repeat the same thing to the children every day: tomorrow will be better - everyone knows it's a lie, but at least it allows them to go to sleep with hope."

"If we tell others about what happened before... can you imagine the consequences? People will be disappointed. If even the guardian cannot be trusted - if it were me, I would not know what I can believe in... who I can believe in."

"..."

San Yueqi, who was standing by, leaned over and whispered something in Danheng's ear.

"Should we contact Brother Kevin? Maybe he has some good ideas."

Dan Heng shook his head, raised his phone and spoke to San Yue Qi.

"Mr. Kevin said that post-war matters are not his responsibility. He is not free now."

San Yueqi took the phone and found a message from Kevin to Dan Heng.

Kevin: Danheng, remember to tell them that Walter and I won’t be back for a while, so you can just wander around and don’t have to wait for us.

Furthermore, post-war issues still need to be resolved by Beloberg and his team themselves. The train crew should not interfere too much. We just need to solve the biggest problem.

After reading the message sent by Kevin, San Yueqi nodded helplessly and returned the phone to Dan Heng.

After hearing what Seele said, Bronya was silent for a moment. She sighed, gritted her teeth and made a decision.

"Mother sacrificed herself to protect Beloberg."

Xing opened his eyes wide and pointed at himself.

"Ah? She is a guardian? Then who are we fighting?"
