Falling powerlessly in mid-air, Bai Heng felt like he had fallen into a warm embrace.

After struggling to open his eyes and seeing the familiar pair of silver-grey eyes, he smiled bitterly:

"It seems that you still have some feelings for me as your mentor."

Spreading her hands, Bronya let Bai Heng's head hit the hard and cold ground, expressionless,"Don't get me wrong, I just think it's too easy for you to die in this way."

Bai Heng smiled faintly and shook his head. Although he was the one who caused Bronya's change, he still sighed at the great change at this moment. It felt like the girl next door had grown up to be a bad sister.

Half-raising himself, Bai Heng saw the result of his attack just now.

The creation engine controlled by the star core had lost all its kinetic energy and collapsed to the ground. Not far away from it, the cancer of all worlds that brought countless"diseases" to this planet no longer had the brilliance it had just.

It seemed that everything was over.

But before Bai Heng could finish his sigh, a dark purple sickle was across his neck.

The butterfly girl, Seele, who had just assisted him in delivering a crucial blow, was now giving him a cold look.

"Bronya, what should we do with this guy?"

Turning slightly to one side and glancing at Bai Heng, Bronya gave her instructions,"Take him back first, I have something else to ask him."

Yes, she still had many questions.

For example, why did he appear here?

For example, why was there no guard in the palace of the Great Guardian who restricted his movements that night a year ago?

For example, why was the large elevator that blocked the lower area just in the open state that night?

Bronya wanted to get the answer.

However, just when everyone was about to take steps to recycle the star core and leave here...

"Boom——!"

The beating sound like a heart suddenly echoed in everyone's ears!

The next second, under the astonished gaze of everyone, the originally dim star core now produced extremely violent fluctuations!

The golden glow was constantly exuding outward, and the dangerous breath once again permeated the surface of the star core!

Compared to just now, it felt even more terrifying at this moment!

The sudden scene made everyone dazed for a moment, but after a moment of concentration, Bronya decisively spoke to Swarovski on the side:

""Swarovski! Scan the status of the star core!"

The mechanical head nodded slightly, and after a flash of red light in its eyes, the ancient weapon suddenly fell silent.

""Swarovski!"

Bronya shouted again, and he spoke in a mechanical tone with a heavy tone:

"Conclusion: It is preparing for self-destruction. Judging from the energy contained in the current star core, the damage range is estimated to be from Yongdong Ridge to the snowfield outside the city......All destroyed."

Boom!

Swarovski's cold conclusion caused a brief blank in Bronya's mind.

But soon, Bronya shook her head and forced herself to calm down.

"Yongdong Ridge to the Snowfields in the Suburbs....In other words, the edge passage is still in a safe area. If Xier is at this speed, is there a chance to bring the retreat information to the front line?...."

"Or should Xi'er take the star core and get as far away from here as possible?...No, what should Xier do in this case?....Moreover, the specific explosion range of the star core cannot be determined....."

"Is there any other way?....Creation Engine, can the defense of the Creation Engine reduce the damage caused by the star core explosion?...."

"No! This is still an uncertainty factor.....A more stable approach is needed....."

Covering her forehead, Bronya's brain began to work frantically at this moment. She analyzed all the possibilities at the moment.

However, due to excessive thinking and analyzing various messy information in a short period of time, fine cold sweat was flowing from her forehead.

Until finally, as Bronya lowered her head slightly and bit her lips, her thinking stopped.

She could not come up with an answer to solve the current situation.

No matter from which aspects she analyzed, and then combined with the current situation to think about the results, she could not get an acceptable solution.

Despair spread in Bronya's heart little by little. At this moment, she seemed to have returned to a year ago and turned back into the helpless self.

The coolness of the snowflakes penetrated her cheeks, but Bronya did not feel the cold at all, because the coldness brought by the powerlessness in her heart was much colder than the contact of flesh and blood.

At this moment, she felt as if she was dragged into the deep sea by an invisible arm. In addition to letting her body fall, she.......I still can't do anything.....

Still can't change anything....

""That's enough, Bronya."

A gentle and low voice sounded slowly in her ears, followed by the warmth on her head.

Bronya turned around in a daze, and what caught her eyes was the man's gentle smile. His one arm was gently resting on her head, and the warmth from his palm gradually made her cold body regain consciousness.

Everything was so familiar.

Whether it was the smile or the warmth transmitted.

It was just like a year ago.

"You have really grown up." Bai Heng's gentle eyes swept over Seele, Swarovski, Natasha, and finally fell back on Bronya,"Not only do you have companions to move forward together, but you also have the mindset to calmly deal with desperate situations."

"There is no doubt that you are now a qualified Great Guardian."

The gentle words fell into Bronya's ears, causing her pupils to slowly widen.

This was the words she longed to hear from a man at the Great Guardian Succession Ceremony a year ago.

But today, a year later, this sentence was spoken by the man who betrayed her.

Why?

The doubts in her heart became stronger, but Bai Heng's gentle words continued.

"You've done it well enough, so....."

"Next, leave it to me."

As he finished speaking, Bai Heng took back his hand from the girl's silver hair, pulled out the flame spear at his side, turned around and walked towards the star core that was emitting a terrifying glow.

As he walked, he spoke:

"Bronya, you must remember that today, the dictator of the empire was corrupted by the whispers of the star core and intended to detonate the star core to push Beloberg into the arms of destruction."

"And you, Bronya, the former successor to the Great Guardian and the leader of the Underworld Fire in the Lower District, you led the people to desperately stop all this."

"This is what happened today at Everwinter Ridge"

"After returning to Beloberg, you must tell everyone about this. The people of Beloberg are in turmoil now, and you, who have accomplished all this, will become the only one they can count on."

"In addition, Pera and Landau are both good talents. You can trust them completely. The same goes for Miss Xier. Although you are not very familiar with her, she seems to trust you very much. Doctor Natasha and Swarovski will also be your good right-hand men."

Bai Heng's tone was like an admonition and a teaching.

But the moment it reached Bronya's ears, all the problems that were trapped in her mind seemed to be solved.

Why did he appear here?

Why was there no guard in the palace of the Great Guardian who restricted his movements that night a year ago?

Why was the big elevator that blocked the lower area just in the open state that night?

Why did he become the emperor of the empire?....

Why would he say that to himself?.....

Everything was solved at this moment.

Bronya took a step forward and held Bai Heng's hand. Tears were already welling up in her silver-gray eyes. Countless thoughts turned into the simplest sentence at this moment:

"teacher....What's the meaning...."

Hearing that name, Bai Heng seemed to be satisfied and responded with a gentle smile.

"Bronya, I'm just telling you that the hand you want to hold is no longer mine."
