I'm playing Honkai Impact 3

"This! These things! Where do they come from?"

Secondary Silver Wing glanced at the blueprints for electrical equipment and crops grown in extremely cold conditions. "Oh, these, I got them from Qiong."

"Qiong..."

Bronya thought of the mushrooms in the lower area, her eyes sparkling silver. "Did Qiong give it to you?"

“I guess I bought it.”

"Buy? You came with the money?"

Bronya wondered why Silver Wing couldn't raise that much money unless he sold the entire Beloberg.

The thought flashed through her mind, and Bronya's expression changed. Silver Wing wouldn't really...

"Don't worry, I'm here to help you, but I won't sell you out."

A hint of smile flashed in the pink and silver eyes, and a smile appeared on the corner of Cisheng Yinyi's mouth: "As for the money, you can owe it for now."

"That's it."

Bronya nodded.

Qiong has helped Beloberg so much, and Bronya really doesn't know what to do if she continues to receive his favor.

"Here, this is the amount of the patent fee."

Secondary Silver Wing took out a device and projected a document. It was a document calculated by professionals, showing the patent fees required for Beloberg to grow crops at the current scale.

"this!"

Seeing the string of zeros, Bronya couldn't help but open her mouth and her face turned pale.

She knew from ancient books that credit points were interstellar currency, but Beloberg, which had been closed off for seven hundred years, had long since left the credit point system!

Bronya felt as if a mountain had fallen on her heart, a pressure far greater than that of Syrian President Assad, who went to the international community every day to seek support.

"Don't worry, I've already paid part of it back for you."

"?"

Bronya was stunned.

Don’t you have no money?

"If you don't have money, you can pay with your body~!"

The calm words kept echoing in Bronya's mind, making her feel like she was struck by lightning and stand still.

Chapter 139 Bronya: I will fulfill the engagement.

"Meat, meat, meat, pay!"

For a moment, Bronya looked at the smiling silver-haired girl, her face full of astonishment. She was dumbfounded and her tone became stammering.

"What's wrong?"

Secondary Silver Wing folded her arms across her chest, her plump and plump breasts swaying for a moment. She spoke in a nonchalant tone:

"According to interstellar regulations, Beloberg should sign a contract with the seed patent holder on a national basis. The holder of that patent is Qiong."

"He did say he would give it to me for free, but it's fine if it's a small amount, but it's hard for me to accept this kind of amount with a clear conscience."

You can happily accept a red envelope of a few hundred dollars from a friend, but if he throws you a "small gift" with the entire market value of a Fortune 100 company, can you still call him a friend?

Even my godfather can’t do this, right?

"Or do you think you can unscrupulously rely on Qiong's kindness and sympathy? If that's what you think, you don't have to pay it back. I don't think Qiong will force you to pay it back."

Milky and slightly lazy words filled the air.

Cisheng Silver Wing felt emotional.

Oh, I am so kind!

"No! I certainly don't think so!"

Hearing what Second Silver Wing said, Bronya immediately started to argue eagerly, her tone hurried but serious.

How could she possibly seek help from her good friend so unilaterally and without restraint?

This goes far beyond the scope of 'help'.

"So, if you can't pay it back, there's another way~!"

"But, sexual compensation or something..."

Bronya's cheeks flushed bright red, and she looked shy and timid like a blooming lotus. Given her serious and formal personality, this topic was too provocative.

First of all, she didn't think her body had such great value that it could be compared with the hopes of millions of people and the future of civilization.

Secondly, if the debt needs to be repaid with her own flesh, it should be hers!

It's definitely not the turn of the 'self in the parallel world'... Well, or rather, there's no need for Silver Wing to pay such a price for Beloberg!

Bronya, feeling inexplicably nervous, felt her heartbeat was much faster than usual, and a strange feeling was brewing in her heart and spreading.

Just when that unprecedented feeling was about to reach its peak.

"Just kidding~"

The sudden brisk voice made Bronya's heart stop abruptly, as if a sports car running at 200 miles per hour had stepped on the brakes completely. If Bronya were to be measured at this moment, the pattern might form the twelve zodiac signs.

"you……"

Bronya's face flushed red, like a deflated ball, her heart inexplicably empty. She glared angrily at her 'other self' who covered her red lips with a rather amused smile on her face.

The moist lips forced themselves to form a slightly curved line, and before Bronya could speak, the Secondary Silver Wings continued:

"But it's not a complete joke."

"!"

Bronya's throat moved, and the words she was about to say were choked back.

"The principle remains the same. If you can't pay it back, find another way. Then, as long as you become a family with Qiong, you don't need to pay it back."

"A-a family?"

"Yes, by becoming a married couple, 'I' can freely use the patented products under Qiong's name. Therefore, I have made an engagement with Qiong as the Great Guardian."

There was a sense of right and proper in his tone. Isn't it natural for a wife to use the patent under her husband's name?

"engagement!?"

Bronya's silver pupils shrank slightly and she cried out in surprise.

With Bronya's political literacy as the heir to the Grand Guardian, she certainly understood what "she" was talking about. Political marriages were commonplace among the aristocratic groups.

The two parties in a marriage must maintain a certain degree of matching in terms of social status and identity, and be able to promote the common interests of the two families.

And what Yin Yi was talking about was not a marriage at all, it was simply one-sided targeted poverty alleviation!

Not to mention the nobles, even the dogs in the nobles’ houses wouldn’t agree!

In reality, no emperor would marry a commoner as his queen, just like a tycoon with billions of assets marrying an actress as his wife...

Do you believe him or do you believe that I am Alisa Rand?

"Yes, the remaining nobles and senior consuls basically all know about this."

Cisheng Yinyi picked up the water glass and took a sip.

"How can this be done!"

Thousands of emotions echoed in her chest, and a color that was difficult to describe appeared on Bronya's face.

Among the nobility, the more noble one's status, the less likely one is to have autonomy in marriage, with the Grand Guardian being an exception.

Since the succession system for the Grand Guardian is not traditional hereditary, it requires the Grand Guardian to adopt an orphan and train him as an heir from a young age. This has been the case for all previous Grand Guardians.

As for the Grand Guardian himself, there is no precedent for marriage. Becoming a Grand Guardian means taking on the burden of the survival of the entire Beloberg and leaving all personal affairs behind.

This is one of the reasons why the people respect the Great Guardian so much.

However, Bronya's concern wasn't about setting a precedent for a Great Guardian to marry, but rather...

"This is for Beloberg."

The words of Second Silver Wing left Bronya speechless.

She knew the cruelty of the situation, understood the despair and suffering of the grassroots people, and understood Beloberg's situation, so she could not criticize Silver Wing's actions.

Su Bai's hands trembled as she clenched the design drawings and instructions for the extreme cold crops. Bronya shook her head violently and shouted through gritted teeth.

"But this is so unfair to Qiong!"

She was very opposed to this method. Facing the considerate and kind-hearted Qiong, using this bargaining chip to kidnap the other party was too cunning and despicable!

From the perspective of Beloberg and the survival of civilization, all citizens are the beneficiaries of this marriage, including her as the Great Guardian. Only one person is harmed, and all the costs are borne by Qiong.

"This is for the people of Beloberg, for the future of civilization."

Secondary Silver Wing's tone was righteous and awe-inspiring, and contained within it the determination to use despicable means for the sake of all living beings.

"But……"

"Do you want to annul this marriage?"

Looking into those silver eyes dotted with pink, Bronya opened her mouth, but in the end no words came out as her lips moved, the words of rejection were stuck in her throat.

Her strong sense of justice brought her intense pain and unspeakable guilt, but she was the great protector of Beloberg!

She has to consider the survival of millions of people!

Sitting in the position of the head of state, a qualified great guardian would first consider the country and the people, even if it means doing things he is unwilling to do, or even becoming a woman who uses despicable means.

Bronya's face showed a vivid struggle.

"Do you like Qiong?"

The sudden question made Bronya's cheeks turn red at an alarming speed: "You, what are you saying all of a sudden?"

"Just answer my question."

"I, I... don't know."

"So, do you have a crush on him?"

"Well……"

The girl's heart was hit by a direct attack again. Bronya turned her head away, trying to avoid the sight of the Second Silver Wing, but thinking about what they discussed, she finally responded and nodded.

How could he not have a good impression of so many heroes who helped Beloberg?

Hearing this, Secondary Silver Wing seemed to hesitate for a moment, then she raised her hand and pressed Bronya's shoulder:

"If you don't like this contract for personal reasons, I can understand."

"I can complete your engagement with Qiong on your behalf."

A gentle and decent smile appeared on the second Silver Wing's face.

"No! That's not the case!"

Bronya quickly shook her head in denial.

Having used such a despicable and cunning bargaining chip to tie up Qiong's kindness, how could she let her 'self' in the parallel world, 'Bronya' who should not bear this responsibility, bear this 'despicable' for her?

Bronya really did a lot for Beloberg, many of which she couldn't do, such as eliminating the aristocracy...

At this moment, the prestige of Grand Guardian Bronya in the hearts of the people of Beloberg has reached an unprecedented level, surpassing all previous Grand Guardians and almost on par with the first generation!

All of this is thanks to Silver Wing.

After reading the contents of these documents and understanding what happened in Beloberg during this period, Bronya even felt that Silver Wing was more suitable to be the Grand Guardian than her heir.

"it does not matter."

Cisheng Yinyi's expression was gentle, and the pink in her eyes seemed to soften. She smiled and said.

"If you think this method is hypocritical and despicable, then just add sincerity."
