The people in the lower district, apparently, had been affected by the rifts for too long.
Many of them died at the hands of rift creatures.
You see, the lower district, in terms of living standards, as well as medical facilities, is far inferior to the upper district.
The upper district's Silvermane Iron Guards, even when injured.
Every one of them could receive excellent treatment!
But the lower district is different.
They lack doctors and medicine, many were injured fighting the rift creatures and couldn't receive effective treatment, eventually dying in vain.
It is true that Melissa's medical skills are quite good.
But there is a saying: "Even the most skilled chef can't cook without ingredients."
There's nothing they could do about it.
And now, they've witnessed with their own eyes.
These rifts, which once threatened their lives, have been eliminated, how could they not be excited?
"Mr. Chen Xu, you have repaired these rifts and indirectly saved the lives of countless people in the lower district!"
"On behalf of the people of the lower district, I would like to express my gratitude!"
Melissa walked forward, under the gaze of everyone.
Expressing her heartfelt thanks.
To be honest, she didn't understand why these heroes from outside, would do this for people who had nothing to do with them.
And without asking for anything in return.
You might say they want something from them, but they have nothing to offer.
Moreover, the marrow is about to dry up.
They absolutely couldn't offer any compensation to express their gratitude.
Besides, people with such strength.
Wouldn't they care about a little bit of stuff like theirs?
"It's nothing!"
"Don't say any more about gratitude."
Chen Xu waved his hand nonchalantly.
Then, he turned his attention to the young girl behind Melissa.
Xier! Obviously, he wasn't wrong.
Bronya and Xier.
A pair of pure sisters!
With this, the other one would surely not be far behind.
The only thing that remains unchanged is...
Xier's fate is still very bitter.
But compared to other worlds, it's much better.
"Hmm?"
The next moment, Chen Xu noticed someone approaching.
He turned his head to look.
He was surprised to find that Cocolia, who had already awakened, and Bronya, were slowly walking towards him.
"Wow? It's you?"
"What are you doing here?"
The moment March 7th saw Cocolia.
Her little face immediately fell.
There was nothing but malice in her tone.
Clearly, she had no affection for this woman at all.
They, as a group, had come to help Belobog with good intentions.
This woman, however, stood against him.
She remained obstinate until the very end.
If Chen Xu hadn't been quick enough, this old hag would have died.
"Hey... Who is this woman?"
"Cocolia, I know her. This woman is Cocolia! The Great Guardian of Belobog?"
"What, it's this guy."
"Humph, this detestable guy, how dare she show her face in the lower district? Isn't everything we have now thanks to her?"
The moment Cocolia appeared, the people in the lower district immediately became agitated.
The vast majority of them, their eyes were filled with ill intent.
Gazing at this "culprit".
"Mr. Chen Xu, everyone, I know that I shouldn't be here at this time, and I have no face to meet you."
"But, I still want to be bold..."
"To give myself a chance to speak."
Even Cocolia couldn't help but feel some guilt at this moment.
She knew she had made a grave mistake.
She was a sinner of Belobog.
But she still wanted to help the people of Belobog.
To strive for a future.
As soon as these words were spoken, the people in the lower district.
Their faces showed a hint of surprise.
Clearly, they didn't know why Cocolia said this, but the amount of information contained within was enormous.
"You've made too many mistakes."
"Take a look at these people in the lower district."
"Their living conditions are several times worse than yours."
Chen Xu looked directly at Cocolia, and said coldly.
To be honest, if this b*tch wasn't good-looking, and also the mother of Duck, he would have slapped her to death.
He went to the lower district, only to experience what a truly harsh environment was like.
The sky was gloomy, the air was filled with a foul odor.
It was hard to imagine how these people could survive in such a harsh environment.
"I understand, Mr. Chen Xu."
"I will use my own way to atone for the sins I have committed."
Cocolia nodded gratefully.
Then she turned her gaze.
To Melissa, and Xier, and the others.
"All you people in the lower district, I, the Executive Officer of Belobog, the Great Guardian of the City Builder, express my sincere apologies to you!"
"I'm sorry!"
Speaking, Cocolia proactively bent down and bowed deeply.
"Hmm?"
This scene moved the people in the lower district.
They never imagined.
A person like this.
Their enemy, would actually bow down and apologize to them?
"I know that an apology doesn't mean anything, so, from this moment forward, I will lift the blockade between the upper and lower districts."
"Restore the passages between the upper and lower districts."
"The people of the lower district will all receive the compensation they deserve."
"Also, starting tomorrow, I will step down as Great Guardian and become an ordinary person, joining the task of rebuilding Belobog alongside the people of the lower district."
Cocolia solemnly said again.
"This..."
Such a sudden amount of information.
Directly caused the people in the lower district to be somewhat at a loss for words.
After all, just yesterday, they were struggling in the lower district.
But starting today? All the suffering... is over?
It was like a dream.
However, soon they turned their eyes to Chen Xu.
Although they didn't know what happened in the upper district.
But they were very clear.
Who brought about the end of all this suffering!
It was the man in front of them, like a god, who saved them.
"Well, it's a bit of sincerity."
Chen Xu nodded in satisfaction.
"Thank you, great Mr. Chen Xu!"
"Yarilo has been invaded by the star nucleus and is in imminent danger, it was you who saved this city, this civilization."
"Therefore, on behalf of the only city-state on this planet, I express my gratitude!"
"At the same time, I am willing to offer my faith, to become your sharpest spear, your strongest shield, and I will erect a statue for you, hoping that you will protect this planet!"
Then, to the surprise of everyone, Cocolia knelt on one knee, her hand on her chest.
Her expression solemn!
Seeing this, everyone present was stunned.
"Huh?"
Chen Xu was also stunned, scratching his head.
What's going on?
Is Yarilo about to become his little brother?
But, I have no intention of taking on any little brothers. If I become their boss, how can I pick up girls?
My identity will create a gap.
I can't possibly sit on a throne, raise my hand, and mutter: "Then let them offer their loyalty?"
That's a little too abstract.
