Star Railway, starting as Kiana

As Kiana pondered this, she walked to a secluded corner in the upper section.

"I think it's around here."

Kiana snapped her fingers lightly, and the pile of debris in front of her floated in the air. It seemed that this was just a dilapidated place in the upper area that had been abandoned and neglected.

But when she saw the strangely shaped floor tiles around her and her wife's, which seemed out of place, Liu Qi'ana knew she had found the right place.

This is a secret passage left by the pioneers to facilitate communication between the upper and lower levels. Unlike the passage blocked by Cocolia, only Sambo knows this path. Kiana remembered this path because Sambo used a sleeping smoke to bring everyone from the upper level to the lower level.

Lifting up several obviously clean and tidy floor tiles revealed a somewhat rugged path in front of Kiana.

"It's time to go down and take a look."

Kiana slowly walked into it, and the floor tiles and piled-up debris above slowly returned to their original positions after Kiana left. Even if Sambo came here, he probably wouldn't have noticed that someone had discovered this place and gone to the lower area as well.

However, unlike the upper district, Kiana had only been in Rock Town for a few minutes when a girl dressed in revealing clothes and carrying a scythe came up to her.

"Who are you!"

Seele, who did not have a surname, raised the scythe in her hand and pointed it at the person in front of her who was out of place in the lower district.

Kiana glanced around at the residents who were staring at her, and at Seele's attitude towards her, and quickly realized everything.

She didn't care. If Kiana really cared, she only needed to use the power of the Herrscher of Knowledge to rationalize everything that was unreasonable. Perhaps everyone except Schwarz from the Mechanical Tribe would be less affected, but everyone else would feel that Kiana's existence was extremely reasonable.

As for Schwarz, even if he can withstand the invasion of the Law of Knowledge, he cannot be immune to the invasion of the Law of Invasion and the Law of Reason.

"Hello, do you need any assistance?"

Looking at the "innocent" girl in front of her, Seele clicked her tongue.

"Tsk, could she be a young lady from the upper district? Does she need support? It's like the lower district has everything!"

Although Seele said that, she put away her scythe and walked towards Kiana, blocking the view of many other residents of the lower district.

Because of the scarcity of resources in the lower districts, almost everything is lacking. Even in the relatively safest town of Rock Rock, there are many homeless people hiding among the crowd who make a living by robbery.

Moreover, Seele couldn't muster any anger towards this innocent and kind-hearted girl who seemed a bit naive. Even though she didn't have much affection for her, she didn't want to see this girl, who was still thinking about whether she needed any supplies when she pointed a weapon at her, instead of seeing herself as a robber, being corrupted by the lower district.

"Let's go, Miss who came from who-knows-where. This is not a place for you. Go back to where you came from."

Seele didn't know where Kiana came from, but since that annoying "merchant" Sambo could freely travel between the upper and lower districts, a young lady from the upper district might also have access to such a route.

“No, Miss Seele, I really want to help everyone in the Lower District.”

"We don't need... wait, how do you know my name?"

"That's because I've admired you, Miss Seele, for a long time."

Xier:?

While Seele was momentarily stunned, Kiana appeared before everyone, dressed in a nun's habit, her hands clasped together, mimicking the gestures she remembered from teaching nuns to pray.

"Everyone, you've all worked hard. Although this may be just a drop in the ocean, we hope these supplies will help you live a better life."

After he finished speaking, bags of grain, clothing, and heating and lighting equipment appeared before all the residents of Panyan Town like a mirage.

Chapter 574 Seele: Affection level up!

“Miss Kaslana…”

"Just call me Kiana."

"Well, Miss Kiana, on behalf of the Lower District and the Earthfire, I sincerely thank you for the supplies you provided."

As the leader of the Earth Fire, Oleg bowed to the girl he was meeting for the first time, but before he could lower his head, his movement was stopped by a pair of fair and soft hands.

“Mr. Oleg, there’s no need for that. It’s my honor to be able to help everyone in Belloberg. Seeing everyone smile is already the greatest gratitude I can ask for.”

Upon hearing Kiana's words, Oleg felt as if he had seen a ray of light from the lower level appear right in front of him.

He thought of the vow he had made back then.

"If there is no light after this, we will be the new fire."

This is also the guiding principle of the Earth Fire.

But today, he seemed to see another light.

If Seele had a favorability indicator above her head, then after Kiana finished speaking, a continuous notification of +1 favorability would pop up.

It wasn't because Kiana selflessly provided supplies, but because when Kiana mentioned the Lower District, she consistently used terms like "Belloburg" and "everyone."

This was the first time Seele had ever met anyone who didn't talk about the upper and lower districts, but instead regarded them as the same kind of people as the residents of the upper district who enjoyed the conveniences of the lower district but unilaterally cut off all contact.

“Phew... Miss Kiana, then I will thank you very much. However, the environment in the lower area is not as good as that in the upper area, and even without considering the rift, it is difficult to guarantee safety. I know a clinic that, although the environment may not be as good as the Goethe Hotel, can guarantee your safety, Miss Kiana.”

Huh? You want to take me to see Natasha already? Is it going to be that easy? Aren't you worried I'm a bad guy?

Kiana had just agreed when Seele spoke first.

“She can come with me. Natasha is busy taking care of patients every day. With me, no fool will target her.”

Kiana:?

For some reason, Seele's attitude towards her has changed so much. Just a moment ago she was calling her "Miss of the Upper District" in such a sarcastic way, but now she's directly inviting her to live together.

Oleg thought about it and realized that it was true, so he agreed with Seele.

After all, Seele and Kiana seem to be around the same age, and Natasha is indeed very busy. Although she has a lot of prestige in the lower districts, Seele's scythe might be more intimidating to those wanderers.

Thus, after living with Bronya, Kiana also achieved the feat of living with Seele.

"Come on, although I don't know how long you'll be staying here, let me show you the way first."

Kiana looked at the familiar route and knew that Seele was leading her to Natasha's clinic.

Unexpectedly, after all the twists and turns, he was still going to meet the true leader of the Earth Fire.

Kiana's real purpose, rather than wanting to see Natasha, was to "accidentally" meet a patient at the clinic.

Along the way, Seele watched as Kiana treated everyone equally. When she encountered residents of Rocky Town, whether adults or children, whether they were well-dressed or slovenly, Kiana would greet them with a smile and offer help without them even needing to ask.

In just the distance of less than 500 meters that Seele led Kiana, Seele saw that Kiana had helped no fewer than a dozen residents of Rocky Town.

If we include the supplies Kiana provided when she first appeared in Rocky Town, and the number of people she helped, then the number becomes even more terrifying.

"Is Kiana some kind of saint?"

Seele couldn't help but think this, but out of concern, she still spoke up to remind her:

"Alright, rein in your overflowing kindness. There are so many people in the lower levels of Belleburg. Do you think you can help everyone? No one will remember your kindness. They'll even take it all for granted. If you don't help them one day, they might even resent you for helping others but not them."

"Seele, are you worried about me?"

Looking at Kiana smiling at her, Seele turned her head away and said with a hint of disdain, "You're overthinking it. I'm just reminding you because you've provided so many supplies for everyone."

However, Kiana looked at the proud Seele but didn't expose her. Instead, she walked beside Seele and said softly, "But they need help. I won't lose anything by helping them in any way I can, but it can help them find salvation."

Seele turned around and looked intently at Kiana's profile. Her face, which already looked as if it had been kissed by a god, seemed even more radiant at this moment.

(Reimu Rei) No stripping

Seele wanted to continue refuting, but the words wouldn't come out. She could only say haughtily, "Hmph, whatever, it has nothing to do with me anyway."

But deep down, she had already elevated Kiana's importance to the level of Natasha, and even surpassed Oleg, the leader of the Earth Fire.

However, this order will soon change again.

Because Natasha's clinic has arrived.

Before Seele could even bring Kiana and her father into the room, the sound of wailing came from inside the poorly soundproofed wooden door.

Seele glanced at Kiana with concern, thinking that this seemingly naive young lady would be frightened by this, but instead found that Kiana showed a compassionate expression.

"This is Natasha's clinic, and it's the only clinic in the lower district. Because of the recent expansion of the rift, many of Earthfire's companions were injured while trying to resist the rift's invasion. Although their lives were not in danger, many had broken bones or holes in their bodies."

Seele tried her best to downplay the horrific scene, and just as she was about to take Kiana to see other places, the door was opened when she could no longer hear the screams coming from here.

The person who opened the door was neither the owner of the clinic nor a patient inside, but Kiana, who was standing next to her.

"and many more..."

Seeing that Kiana had already entered the clinic, Seele had no choice but to walk into the clinic as well.

A faint smell of blood mingled with the strong odor of disinfectant, which, though somewhat pungent, put Seele at ease.

Seele thought, "It seems that unscrupulous merchant has come to deliver supplies again. The smell of blood isn't too strong, so everyone's condition shouldn't worsen due to infection, and Kiana won't be scared by the smell of blood."

"No, what does it matter to me whether she's scared or not? I didn't let her in."

Despite this, Seele's body remained obedient, staying by Kiana's side and protecting her safety without leaving her side.

As Natasha lay silently in bed, waiting in line for treatment, with many injured people, some with gruesome broken joints, and others with some medicine, Kiana came to the patient's side.

"Don't be afraid, everything will be alright soon."

Chapter 575 The Ice Spike Pierced Sambo's Butt

"Don't be afraid, everything will be alright soon."

Seeing Kiana reach out her hands to the patients in front of her, Seele was so frightened that she quickly reached out to grab Kiana.

After Kiana finished speaking, some white particles slowly drifted through the clinic and landed on everyone in the clinic.

Many of those with minor injuries peered at the ceiling, wondering, "The ceiling isn't leaking, so where did the snow come from?"

Soon, however, an itching sensation came from the location of each of their injuries.

The sensation lasted only a few seconds before stopping. One of the Earthfire members, not knowing what had happened, scratched his head habitually, and then suddenly froze.

Seeing the six ropes binding the dove, barely covering the emergency responder's arm, which hadn't yet received Natasha's treatment, successfully raise itself, he immediately shouted, "Hey!!! Wasn't my arm broken? How did it heal!"

However, no one blamed him for making a scene at the clinic, because his reminder made everyone notice the changes in their bodies.

"Wow, I can move my legs again! Waaaaah, I thought I'd never be able to walk again! Miracle, miracle! Thank you, King Amber!"

"What's that compared to you? It's just a broken bone. I had seven or eight holes in my body. I thought I was going to die. But look, the holes are gone, and I don't hurt anymore!"

"Thank you, King Amber!"

Finally, some sharp-eyed people noticed something amiss; it seemed that all the changes began when "snowflakes" appeared in the room.

These "snowflakes" seemed to emanate from this girl who stood out from her surroundings.

They didn't know Kiana, but they knew Seele.

"Miss Seele, and who is this?"

"She's right here, why don't you ask her yourselves?"

"this..."

The recovered members of the Earthfire looked at each other, somewhat awkwardly. This group of people, who were almost old enough to be Uncle Seele, were embarrassed to admit that they were a little afraid to talk to each other, as if they were afraid that they would offend the other's existence by speaking.

Seeing everyone's expressions, Kiana naturally understood that her plan had finally succeeded.

Even if she provides supplies to the lower districts, no matter how much, there will still be people who disdain it.

However, if, in the current situation in the lower districts, people discovered that the nun who distributes porridge every day also possesses divine gifts and is a physician who can easily resolve any illness, big or small, the situation would be completely different.

That's the situation now.

Even Seele, whose favorability towards Kiana had increased considerably due to Kiana's actions and words, still only saw Kiana's behavior as a kind-hearted young lady from the upper district having a change of heart.

In her ranking of importance, even though Kiana provided enough food to supply all the residents of the lower districts, she was still less important than Natasha.

It wasn't that she knew Natasha was the true leader of the Earth Fire, but rather that in this world affected by the Rift, countless people were injured every day in order to fight against the Rift's invasion. In addition, due to the harsh environment of the Lower District and the unavoidable hidden dangers left behind when miners collected Earth Essence, Natasha's importance as the only doctor in the Lower District was self-evident.

But now, seeing this scene that is comparable to a miracle, Seele felt that she must be dreaming.

After all, this wasn't a fairy tale Oleg brought down from the upper district when he was a child. How could someone come to her with ample supplies, and then discover that they could instantly heal extremely serious injuries without consuming medical supplies that were extremely difficult to obtain in the lower district?

Seeing the changes in everyone's gazes, even though she knew they meant no harm and were even extremely kind, she still pulled the "weak, pitiful, and innocent" girl behind her to prevent their overly eager gazes from frightening her.

"Alright, ask Boss Oleg if you need anything. I still need to take her to familiarize herself with the streets of Rocky Town and other places. Once you're healed, you can go back to what you were doing."

Seele turned to the group and said, "Dad," then turned around, took Natasha's hand, and left Natasha's clinic.

The group of "patients" who had just been there, after looking at their "injuries" that had disappeared, said goodbye to Natasha and left, no longer wanting to waste resources there.

Natasha only sat down after the once bustling clinic suddenly became deserted, her fingers tapping lightly on the table.

"Is that child from the Upper District? But with such abilities, she must be under a lot of attention and well-protected there. How did she get down here?"

Although Natasha was the de facto leader of the Earth Fire, her primary role was still that of a physician. In addition, the lower districts were isolated from information, so even though she considered many possibilities, something still felt off.

"I wonder if Sangbo has returned yet. If he is, he should know the identity of this girl."
