“I can’t believe it, this room is pretty grand, huh?”
“It’s so warm, right?”
March 7th couldn’t help but comment as soon as Chen Xu and the others entered the room.
Compared to the icy chill outside.
The room was steaming hot, making people sweat.
“It’s warm, right? I have several heaters in this room.
“See, it’s that thing in the corner.”
“The people in the upper and lower levels of Belobog survive thanks to this. Without this thing, this place would be a dead city.”
As she spoke, Hila pointed to the corner.
“Heater? It has such a strange design.”
Xing Mei and March 7th spoke in unison.
It was clear that they hadn’t seen such a creation before.
To be precise.
March 7th had never been to a planet this cold.
Of course, Chen Xu was quite familiar with this kind of creation.
In his previous life, whether it was an electric heater, a radiator.
Or later, geothermal energy, were all methods of heating for Earthlings.
“Upper and lower levels?”
Dan Heng caught the key point and asked in confusion.
“Well, how to put it, this topic, if you go into detail, could take three days and three nights to explain.”
Hila stroked her chin, thought for a moment, and continued:
“Belobog’s city structure is like a large disc. The upper level is responsible for administration and trade, while the lower level is responsible for energy supply and mining!”
“In any case, they are also citizens of Belobog.”
“They have the same circumstances as us.”
“However, since Cocolia became the Great Guardian, she withdrew all the Silvermane Guards stationed there and sealed the passages between the upper and lower levels.”
“Since then, their lives have been much harder than those in the upper level. And resources are very scarce.”
“They can only exchange their living supplies with the upper level district by digging up geothermal marrow for heating…”
Hila picked and chose the main points.
“Huh? Since they are all citizens of Belobog.”
“Why would she do this?”
For a moment, March 7th spoke in confusion.
“I don’t know.”
Hila shook her head, her eyes filled with sadness.
Before Cocolia became the Great Guardian.
The two were as close as sisters, so close that they wore the same pants.
But after that, Cocolia changed.
Not only did she not allow her to study the Stellaris.
She even took back all her data.
She expelled her from the ranks of the City Builders.
In addition to a series of unreasonable orders, she also felt disheartened.
The two grew apart, so much so that they were now as strangers.
“She’s really the villain, isn’t she?”
Chen Xu frowned and thought to himself.
At first, he was just guessing.
But now this feeling was getting stronger and stronger.
“How could she issue such an order?”
“That’s a little too inhumane, right?”
“Are the lives of the lower level residents not lives?”
March 7th, overflowing with righteousness, quickly spoke her thoughts.
In her opinion, a leader.
How could she be so heartless.
“Ahem~! March!”
Dan Heng noticed the atmosphere was wrong and immediately spoke.
Because he noticed that the girl named Pela.
Was looking at March 7th with displeasure.
“Uh… this?”
For a moment, March 7th froze on the spot.
“Hahaha, don’t worry, Pela and I are good friends. Although she is the intelligence officer of the Silvermane Guards, she won’t tell anyone about this.”
Seeing this, Hila quickly laughed and covered for her.
“The Silvermane Guards?”
Now, March 7th couldn’t hold it in anymore.
She was actually badmouthing people in front of Cocolia’s subordinate.
Then, Hila poured Chen Xu and the others.
A cup of hot tea.
Everyone chatted for hours.
Until dusk, Chen Xu and the others said goodbye and left.
“I can’t believe Belobog’s situation is so dire. Even their Silvermane Guards can’t hold on.”
On the way back to the inn, Dan Heng frowned and sighed.
From Hila’s words, they learned that.
The gap in the Great Rift was still spreading at an exaggerated rate.
It had even invaded the city.
And had resulted in the deaths of many residents.
It’s imaginable that these mortal soldiers, fighting against the endless monsters, would be how horrific.
After all, humans can be injured.
But once a Great Rift is created.
There will be an endless stream of Great Rift creatures pouring out of it.
With this constant battle.
Belobog’s survival until now is a miracle.
If a few more years pass, this planet might just be a dead city.
“Actually, compared to this…”
“I always feel that the Great Guardian Cocolia is not right.”
At this moment, Chen Xu suddenly spoke.
All eyes.
Were on Chen Xu.
“Mr. Chen Xu, do you have that feeling too?”
“To be honest, when she was talking to us, I could see that her eyes were a little erratic, as if she was trying to hide something?”
Dan Heng nodded, saying what was on his mind.
“Ah? I thought I was the only one who noticed that?”
“You two knew too?”
March 7th was a little disappointed when she heard this.
She thought she could be ahead of Dan Heng this time and notice something was wrong.
And then show off her intelligence.
But who knew she wouldn’t succeed again?
“It’s fine, I didn’t notice anything.”
Seeing this, Xing Mei smiled and said beside her.
“Hey, Xing, you are so good at talking.”
“Although I know you’re just trying to cheer me up.”
March 7th chuckled, shook her head.
“Anyway, this expedition won’t be as easy as we imagined. We need to stay alert, just in case of any emergencies.”
Dan Heng continued to be cautious.
“Hey, you don’t need to worry about that. We’re only here for the Stellaris, not to hurt them. Nothing will happen!”
“Besides, we have Chen Xu, right?”
As she spoke, March 7th smiled and squinted, patting Chen Xu.
“Ah? That’s right, if there’s any danger, you run on your own.”
“I don’t care about you!”
Hearing this, Chen Xu smiled slightly and said.
“Ah? How can you do that?”
“That’s so heartless! We’re good partners, you can’t abandon me.”
March 7th immediately protested angrily.
“Alright, I was just joking.”
“If she really has something wrong with her, we can sit down and talk about it. If she doesn’t know what’s good for her.”
“Then we’ll have to do things the hard way.”
Chen Xu shrugged and said calmly.
As soon as these words came out, Dan Heng’s scalp went numb.
The power this person possessed was no joke.
If he really made a move.
It would be hard to control the situation.
Now, all he hoped was that.
His guess about Cocolia today was wrong.
Tomorrow she would.
Be able to sit down and chat with them properly.
“Alright, it’s getting late. Everyone get some rest. Let’s go see Cocolia tomorrow.”
As he spoke, Chen Xu took the lead and walked back to his room.
Honestly, since crossing over…
He hadn’t slept yet.
Even Wolverine needs rest.
At least when he’s not hunting sheep, he’s pretty regular in his daily routine.
“I’m going back to sleep too!”
“Goodnight!”
“Ah, I’m so sleepy…”
Seeing this, March 7th yawned and left too.
