Star Dome Railway, my props are a bit weird

"Before, I had a talk with that little girl..."

"You should also know that now that Belloberg has been reborn, the 'lower area' has almost no meaning. Except for a small number of people who are holding on, everyone else has moved to the upper area."

"And Clara is one of the few people who doesn't want to move to the upper class."

"I came to you this time to solve this problem."

Chapter 41 Wash Clara's feet, Swaro is watching you!

After Beloberg was reborn, there was almost no point in continuing to stay in the 'lower district'.

Although marrow ore can be mined in this dark underground world, but...

Are you kidding me, the world is new and full of opportunities!Who would want to stay in that dark mining area, holding on to ore veins and cold mining equipment for the rest of their lives?

This is the thought of the vast majority of residents in the lower district. Therefore, in order to stand at the forefront of the times and seize this soaring opportunity, the vast majority of residents dragged their families and families to the upper district.

Nowadays, this place is deserted, the streets are deserted, and most of the houses no longer have lights on. Whether it is Panyan Town or Rivet Town, it is dark, with only a few lights left to maintain civilization.

The lights of the few families who were unwilling to move out and had developed a friendship with this land could not dispel the cold darkness in the lower area of ​​Belloberg.

Correspondingly, this is also the case in large mining areas.

After the passage to the upper and lower areas was opened, most of the wanderers in the large mining area left immediately.

These wanderers, who had gathered together because of Swaro and these robots in the past and had no emotions but only interests, are now naturally eager to go to the upper area to take advantage of the situation and prepare to seize the future direction.

These wanderers continued to move away again and again.Nowadays, the large mining area can really be described as deserted.

Clara, who was barefoot, trotted up to Perkins and greeted the robot, which was constantly trembling slightly as if it was seriously ill: "Perkins, I'm back."

When dealing with these robots, Clara was not timid at all, and her tone also had the warmth of a family member exchanging pleasantries.

The heavy door opened automatically, and Perkins, who was guarding the door, was speechless and tried his best to express his welcome.

"K, Clara...welcome, welcome back..."

The door opened automatically, and both Xiluwa and Zhenye saw the tall man standing behind the door, wearing pants, shoes and clothes.

Swaro's one eye flashed red, as if he was confirming whether there was any problem with Clara's vital signs.

"Welcome back, Clara."

"Ms. Shiluwa from the upper area, and Mr. Zhenye from the Star Dome Train... welcome you to the big mining area."

Here, Xiluwa and I admired in a low voice: "Wow, it's so magnificent."

Listening to these words, Zhen Ye felt a lot of men with strange styles pop up in his mind for some reason.

He shook his head and dismissed the messy portrait of the man from his mind.He raised his head and asked Swaro: "Svaro, why are you still here? Why don't you take those robots and go to the upper world with Clara?"

Swaro's mechanical sound is always the same.

"The comprehensive evaluation of Belloberg has ended. The probability of Belloberg returning to normal is: 99.97%."

"Calculation results...updated. Task No. 0001, "Protecting the Lower Area" - Completed.The task is closed. "

"Task number 00000, [Clara wants a family] - in execution."

The conclusion given by Swaro has no 'human logic'.But both Zhenye and Xiluwa understood it.The main reason why Swaro didn't go to the upper area was because of Clara.

"Clara, did you decide to... stay here because you couldn't bear to part with these robots in the lower area?"

The little girl looked embarrassed. After hesitating for a moment, she nodded gently.

Almost all the robots in the lower area need to be operated by Swaro.In various senses, Swaro was the server for the robots in the lower area.

It single-handedly built the mechanical network in the lower area and made the robots in the entire lower area run "vividly".

And once Clara leaves the lower area, then Swaro will definitely leave with her.And once Shivaro left, there would be no one to maintain the mechanical network structure in the lower area.

Then, these robots will fall into silence again and become dust buried deep in history.

Zhenye spread his hands: "Look, this forms a perfect logical closed loop."

Then, he coughed lightly and explained the purpose of his visit to Swaro: "We are here precisely to help Clara."

【~???~】(from Clara)

【??~】(from Shiluwa)

The little girl's expression was a little more grateful.

"Big brother, big sister... thank you. If you can let these children (referring to the various robots in the big mining camp)..."

Zhenye smiled and waved his hand, slowly stepped forward, came to Clara's side, stretched out his hand and pressed Clara's head.

Clara: "Well..."

The little girl panicked for a moment. Being "surprised" by Zhenye like this, her CPU crashed and she stood there stunned.An abnormal shy blush soon appeared on her cheeks.

Swaro: "..."

The big robot's eyes flashed red, as if it was scanning Zhenye's actions, as if it wanted to say something, but in the end, it said nothing.

"Clara is really a kind-hearted and good child... No, it can even be said to be a 'little angel'."

【~???~】(from Clara)

【??~】(from Shiluwa)

Clara seemed a little shy, but she soon got used to Zhenye's extremely quick and gentle touch, giving people a warm and family-like touch.

This is probably the first time she has been touched by such a warm and emotional hand. The feeling... is completely different from Mr. Schwarz's mechanical arm...

"Big brother……"

Zhenye's heart melted when Clara called her "big brother". He said seriously: "Don't worry, Clara, I will help you transport all the 'children' in the lower area."

Hey (?﹃?), Clara, soft, small, fragrant...

Siluva did not see Zhenye's slightly abnormal reaction. She explained to Swaro: "After Beloberg gradually stabilizes, the lower area should be gradually abandoned."

Her rhetoric is completely understandable.Also included in Swaro's 'prediction'.

After Beloberg was reborn, although the marrow veins were still valuable, they were obviously not as valuable as before.

Beloberg is the 'last city of mankind', but... it is not the only human city in Yalilo VI.

After the wind and snow melted, the world was reborn, and the entire planet became an explorable area, so the Beloberg people could also embark on a journey of "archeology relies on technology".

Standing on the seaside, the most magnificent city of mankind (Jarilo VI) was built by the Creation Engine...

Coupled with the assistance of the Black Tower Space Station...

Beloberg's demand for earth marrow will drop off a cliff.At that time, the entire lower area will really lose its exploration value and development value.

Then, Beloberg will gradually abandon the development of the lower areas.

There is a saying that "a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall."

With a safer way to obtain energy, the Beloberg people really don't need to dig out the earth's marrow.

After all, no one knows if if we dig like this, one day we will dig right through and cause the entire Belloberg to sink.

He glanced at Clara, who was so ravaged that she showed a comfortable expression like a cat enjoying herself, and then glanced at the 'culprit' who made Clara so happy.

Swaro: "..."

Chapter 42 You'd better be doing the right thing

Sylva then began to 'express his intention'.

"Swaro, you should also know the current situation of this planet."

"We need the knowledge stored in your memory from the former builders of the city."

"We help transfer everything in the large mining area. As a trade... I need the message data left by the past 'Fort Builders' stored by Swaro."

Swaro: "...analyzing and making judgment."

"Calling completed, analyzing and evaluating..."

"Evaluation complete. With Clara's wishes as the primary agreement, I should agree to this deal."

His mechanically synthesized voice showed a gentleness that shouldn't have been there.

【~???~】(from Clara)

[I feel the deep gratitude from Clara...]

[Clara-Tarot Cards: Temperance has been lifted! ★0→1】

【★1Irreplaceable thing: The world of a little girl is very small.There are too many "irreplaceable things" in her small world. 】

[You who broke into her little world...will become an irreplaceable thing in her heart, will you become her 'family'? 】

"Very good...this way, the deal will be fine."

"In short... we will assume the responsibility of maintaining the robots and iteratively upgrading the robots. As part of the deal, Swaro, you need to provide support for the operation of the robots in the upper area..."

"The transaction contents have been integrated. The agreement has come into effect."

Swaro's cold mechanical voice seemed a little more urgent: "Proposal, regarding the establishment of a mechanical network in the surface world..."

"Don't worry, I've hired a super powerful cosmic-level hacker to help you optimize the algorithm logic. That guy will do it right in one step. When the time comes, Swaro, you will only be responsible for acceptance."

Sylva and Swaro began to negotiate terms with each other - about the 'content of this transaction'.

……

To Zhenye and Clara, this was nothing to hear.Under Swaro's gaze, Zhenye took Clara to a place that was a little further away and where it could be seen.

"This is the 'Butterfly Heart'."

Zhenye took out a 'butterfly' ornament specially made from blue dusk feathers.

[Butterfly Heart: Allows the wearer to gain true feelings. ]

There is only one 'prop introduction' that is very simple to describe, but actually very incredible.

Zhenye handed the shining butterfly heart to Clara.The little girl took it curiously, held it carefully in her hands, and carefully observed the dazzling and miraculous thing at close range.

"It can give the children who wear it real feelings..."

"It should be very precious...Thank you, big brother."

【~???~】

After being told this, Zhenye felt embarrassed to say, "This thing is something you can just rub."

But that’s fine.He can mass-produce butterfly hearts, but once he mass-produces them, Clara will definitely put them into use on a large scale.And once Clara does this kind of behavior, it is very likely to lead to an irreparable crime.

Things like the awakening of machine souls...at least for humans, the overall harm outweighs the benefits.

Again, robots like BT that can establish unreserved trust with humans (Pilots) are still one of the few among robots.

Things like 'Stars' are more likely to happen.

Clara treats these robots as her own family...but not all robots are willing to treat her as their own family.

(Classic example: Clara's companion mission - rare love)

(PS: Having said that, this companion mission made me see the shadow of a side mission in "BUG Punk 2077" - [Machine and Personality].)

(V, who received this mission, needs to help Draman (Old Germany) go to various parts of Night City to find the 'children' who have escaped Draman's control.)

(PS: A well-known cyberpunk meme: Didi, you king [beep——]! It comes from this side mission.)

(At the end of the story, V can choose to destroy Draman's core, format it, or choose to merge personalities.)

All in all, Zhenye is not very optimistic about Clara's large-scale use of Butterfly Heart.

So she regarded the butterfly heart as a precious item, which saved Zhen Ye from having to explain it to her.

"This is for Mr. Schwaro. Clara, be sure to keep it safe."

Clara nodded gently and seriously, and then carefully put it into her cotton-padded coat pocket.

After a brief silence, Zhenye glanced at Clara's delicate and lovely little Jiojio, who looked like a 'top ingredient' at first glance.

"Then let's do something serious next."

Zhenye rubbed his hands with a serious look on his face and suddenly asked a random question.
