It feels like you are walking nervously through a dark forest and are suddenly stared at by a group of red eyes.

"Are you kidding? With such a number of monsters, even if everyone from Earth Fire is here, they may not be able to stop them..."

After all, Xi'er is just an ordinary person.When the brain clearly recognizes that there is an existence that it cannot handle at all, fear will infinitely amplify all the senses of the body. This is not that the body is asking you to fight to the death, but is urging you to escape quickly.

"Hey, your guy's name is Kevin, right?"

Perhaps in order to overcome the fear in her heart, Xier deliberately made her voice louder, but unfortunately, Kevin could still accurately capture the trembling part of it.

"Although I have dragged you into danger, don't think that I will apologize more seriously."

"Hurry back along the original road, don't stay here and hold me back. Just...now!"

boom--!

The sickle that had been on his shoulder was hit hard to the ground, and the sharp blade seemed to take away the faint light.

Cruel and realistic wars always come so unexpectedly.

Chapter 18 Isn’t this just a child?

As the sickle was hung high in the air by Xi'er, a weak light flickered around her inexplicably.

Kevin felt that he could see clearly that this girl's body was absolutely the same as that of ordinary people, but she was also able to induce imaginary energy that existed in another dimension... This could be regarded as some kind of energy that existed in this world. Mechanism?

Incited by the inexplicable rules, the original pure imaginary energy was converted into a form closer to the quantum sea around Xier, so that her own body began to appear in the space with the blessing of this energy. Erratic.

Even though the true source of this special blessing was unclear for a while, it was obvious that this was not the first time that Xi'er had borrowed this power.I saw its erratic figure in the sky above a certain world-splitting creature in a flash, and then the sickle in its hand was suddenly swung down.

boom--!

The sharp scythe made a clanging sound of steel against the crystal-like appearance of the world-splitting creature, but this time, the weapon in Xi'er's hand went deeper and successfully cut open the body of the world-splitting creature with one blow. Most of it.

But there are dozens of monsters larger than this world-splitting creature around.

"What are you doing there stupidly? Do you think you can't die quickly enough?"

If there were only two or three here and there, Xi'er could barely cope with it herself.But how could she gain confidence in a scene like this?

"Since I have promised to help, how can I stop when I encounter a small difficulty?"

In sharp contrast to Xi'er's anxious face, Kevin, who stepped out of the alley on his back feet, first moved his wrist a few times, and then calmly raised the baseball bat in his hand.

"You guy...what's going on?!"

Even if the lack of intelligence is a bit exaggerated, Xi'er is not a real fool after all.Soon she discovered that all the world-splitting creatures around her had actually stopped moving, staring at Kevin's every move.

However, no matter what, shouldn't these world-splitting monsters be completely incapable of thinking? !

The next second, all the world-splitting creatures pounced on this harmless man who just held a baseball bat in his hand.Even the monster less than half a meter away from Xi'er immediately gave up its original target of attack.

Bang-bang-bang-!

As the cheek of the first world-splitting creature came into close contact with the baseball bat in Kevin's hand, a series of critical hits began to ring out in the dim street, each one deafening.

The world-breaking creature's steel-hard body was like paper when it collided with the baseball bat. There was no way to stop the momentum of its swing, and it exploded into pieces of indivisible ice in mid-air. .

In less than 30 seconds, the monsters that had filled the streets a moment ago were completely gone, leaving only half of Xi'er's body that had just been amputated at her feet.

"Come on, what are you kidding?"

Is the scene in front of me really the destructive power that normal humans can display?Even if the big robot who has been looking at the heart of the furnace comes in, he may not be able to behave so neatly, right?

"It's all settled."

Kevin gently stretched out his palm to wipe away the ice stain on the baseball bat, and asked: "Where is the orphanage you mentioned?"

"...The largest mansion in the west was once the orphanage."

"Okay, let's go."

Without any more words, Kevin turned his head and took steps in the direction Xi'er pointed.It was actually a pretty easy-to-recognize big house. Because of its high location, it could be easily seen even from the entrance of the town. After all, Kevin's vision was not affected by darkness.

Surprisingly, he did not encounter any world-splitting creatures along the way, and Kevin also maintained his initial aloofness.Only Xi'er was always in a state of confusion, thinking about what to say but not knowing how to speak.

Her radical attitude all along was obviously not quite right, but who would have thought that this guy brought by Sambo from the upper area actually had such terrifying strength... She had never thought before that someone It's actually possible to do this.

Even after she inexplicably acquired the special ability to accelerate and temporarily hide her body, her physical abilities did not actually change much. She had never heard of anyone else with similar obvious abilities. Super powers beyond common sense.

If she can also possess this kind of power that can cross the rift, then changing the situation in the lower area at this time does not seem to be completely impossible.

Just when Xi'er was still feeling confused, Kevin, who was standing in front, suddenly stopped, and her head hit him directly on the shoulder.

Snapped--

"We have arrived."

Kevin turned to look at the girl behind him, and finally took the initiative to ask: "What did this orphanage rely on to maintain before?"

It's not like a welfare institution can support such a luxurious mansion.

Moreover, judging from the fact that Beloberg issued a blockade order on the lower-class area more than ten years ago, there is a high probability that they will not do such unnecessary things as building an orphanage.

"Hmm... I remember that the original body of the orphanage seemed to be an old house donated by a rich man. As for the daily expenses, Nata was basically able to scrape together the money while practicing medicine and saving money. "

"At that time, even the children's dolls were made by Nata stitch by stitch. But that has always been the preserve of good children, and has nothing to do with bad kids like me... No, why am I talking about this?”

Xi'er, who mistakenly thought it was her sudden convulsion, patted her forehead.But the sudden memory also successfully made her break away from the random thoughts and focus on the current things again.

"Excess medical supplies are usually stored by Nata in the basement over there. In order to prevent danger during evacuation, we don't need too much, just enough to deal with the current trouble."

"After all, these things won't break if they are placed here."

Under Xi'er's guidance, the two quickly found the needed supplies from the basement.Kevin did not choose to show off, but simply picked up two boxes of materials and held them in his arms, and then followed Xi'er from the other side of the path to the exit of the world.

For some reason, the journey when leaving was extremely smooth, and no eyeless creatures from the split world jumped out to seek misfortune. Instead, the two of them simply walked out of the split world.

"Thanks to you this time...thank you."

Just after arriving at a safe location, Xi'er, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped and thanked her seriously.But before Kevin could reply, she immediately started walking again.

"Quick, we'll deal with other things later. The patients in the clinic can't stand procrastination."

"Alas..." Kevin, who was standing at the back, couldn't help but sigh.

Sure enough, no matter which angle you look at it, he is still just a child.

Chapter 19 But, my trash can...

About 10 minutes later, the two people carrying medical supplies arrived at the Panyan Town that Xi'er mentioned.It was not that there were no troubles along the way. There were even many people snatching supplies.But when they got closer and saw Xi'er, the backbone of the Earth Fire Organization, they finally gave up in unison.

This is not because of the deterrent power of the "Ground Fire" organization, but because of the reputation that Xi'er has truly built.

In lower-class areas without any precise laws, fists are the best weapon to protect yourself.

If it weren't for the fact that after the Silver Mane Iron Guards withdrew from the lower area, there was still an organization like the Earth Fire that stood up and took on the responsibility of maintaining basic order. The lower area might not have been able to withstand the erosion of the rift boundary or the exhaustion of resources. It would have long since become a hell on earth due to the complete breakdown of order.

However, no matter how good the management capabilities of a spontaneous private association are, it cannot be compared to a government unit with complete rules.Even if they have proven their impartiality time and time again, there will still be many people who will condemn and resist from their own perspectives.

Even the former fire-chasing moth still encountered countless rejections when he took over the rule of the traditional government step by step in the later stages of the disaster.

And even in this Panyan Town, which is the stronghold of 'Earthfire' and is focused on protection and order, its image is definitely not what those who have been staying in the upper area of ​​Beloberg can imagine.

Chaotic, crowded, backward...this was Kevin's first impression when he saw this town with his own eyes.

It's not that the streets of Panyan Town are crowded with people. On the contrary, the streets around them look quite orderly under the care of the ground fire.But...it is also true that this small town cannot accommodate so many people.

Not only are there a variety of newly built temporary residences stacked around outside the town, but the many buildings inside the town are also obviously home to far more than the normal number of residents. All kinds of daily necessities almost occupy the available external space on these floors. All over.

Of course, it's good to have a normal place to live, and it's inevitable to take a break in some dark and narrow alleys.Everyone wants to change this situation of resource scarcity, but...how to change it?

In addition to these, there are also many children in Panyan Town.Excluding those who were running wantonly on the streets, the remaining children were squatting beside various trash cans almost invariably, as if they were trying to search for something in them.

"Don't worry, they're not searching through the trash cans for edible scraps."

Xi'er was keenly aware that most of Kevin's eyes were on the only energetic children in the whole town. Unfortunately, the words coming out of her mouth were not so comforting: "Because Panyan Town There won’t be anything like that in our trash cans. People want to break even a piece of bread into eight pieces and eat it, so how can we waste food?”

"But if they are lucky, the children may still find some useful parts inside, repair them and then exchange them for money."

When adults' own survival becomes a problem, they naturally have no way to pay attention to these children, even if they are the real future.

"Is there an orphanage here too?"

On the surface alone, the number of children far exceeds the normal range.In fact, in this environment, there are very few people who are willing to have another child to delay themselves.

"Orphanage? No, you are overthinking. After all, there is no big house like Rivet Town in Panyan Town. How can there be any place where so many people can be put down at the same time?"

"But one thing is true. The children in Panyan Town are basically taken care of by Nata. Most of their parents are miners. Sometimes they go out for more than a week and don't come back."

There was just one thing that Xi'er didn't say - there were many parents of children who entered the mine and never came out.

"This makes me even more curious about what kind of person that Natasha is."

———— ————

In the upper area on the other side, the troubled children group with little Ellie had just entered Beloberg under the escort of the Jeppard guard officer.But it was said that they were being escorted, but in fact this upright guard officer did not restrict their freedom at all.

Even some of the questions they were confused about, Jeppard would choose to answer them one by one, allowing these alien visitors to gradually gain a deeper understanding of this "City of Preservation".

It would be a little unreasonable to say thank you to Brother Jie, right?

"Look over there, what are those children throwing into the pool?"

March [-], who was originally concentrating on admiring these novel buildings in the city, was suddenly attracted by the children surrounding the square, and was very curious to know what they were doing.

"What they are holding in their hands should be... coins? Indeed, there are legends similar to the wishing fountain in many places." Dan Heng's words were not so sure when he speculated that he said these words.

After all...Have you ever seen anyone whose wishing fountain has coins thrown into it by the handful? !Those who don’t know better think you are feeding the fish.

"There are indeed some playful children in Belloberg who like to use the central fountain as a wishing pool, but they just throw some coins. The Silver-maned Iron Guards rarely go to clean the pool."

Jeppard just mentioned it casually, but the speaker didn't care and the listener had a heart. At this time, some guys' eyes began to glow green.

Of course, now was obviously not a good time to commit a crime. After a brief interlude, everyone continued to move forward under the leadership of Jeppard, and finally successfully arrived at the tallest castle in the center of the city.

"We are here, everyone. This is Clipper Castle, the territory where the builders live."

"It's obviously an isolated city in the ice and snow, but the buildings here really look spectacular." After listening to Jeppard's introduction, March [-] looked up at the hundred-meter-high fortress in front of him and couldn't help but sigh.

"Having said that, don't you think we are missing someone?" Looking at everyone who seemed to be completely unaware, the only witty little Aili suddenly reminded her kindly.

"Huh? That's right, where did Xing go?!"

"No, look, isn't it over there?" Before March [-], who was about to panic, had finished gathering her energy, little Aili had already pointed out the direction for her.

Looking in the direction of little Ellie's finger, you can see Xing standing next to a trash can on the street, lowering his head and staring attentively at her lid.

You see, this garbage lid is flat and round, like...like a pie?

The more he stood here and stared, Xing felt inexplicably that there must be some good treasure hidden in this trash can. This was an intuition that others could not understand.

But just when she finally made up her mind to reach out and uncover this garbage cover that represented the unknown, March Qi's hand grabbed her wrist first.

"What are you doing standing here stupidly? Let's go!"

"But, my trash can..."

"Gee, what good things can be found in a trash can? Let's go!"

Chapter 20 Dr. Nata still likes children very much

Panyan Town.

"The first floor is the operating room and clinic, the second floor is where the children live, and the third floor is the ward where patients are temporarily admitted... At this time, Nata will most likely be sitting on the first floor, and we will just put things away Just move in and follow her arrangements."

Standing outside a three-story building on the street, Xier first briefly introduced the general situation of the clinic to Kevin, and then stepped into the door first.

Compared to regular medical facilities, this clinic is not really large in size, but it is packed with injured patients.Most of them are the most obvious traumas, and the more serious ones are fractures of hands and feet.

From this clinic alone, one can see at a glance the current general situation in the lower district. If this place was really stable enough, there would not be such a large number of injured patients...probably similar to colds and fevers. Diseases are not serious enough for them to go to a clinic for treatment.

Even though all of them were seriously injured, the first reaction of these injured people when they saw Xier was to make way for her to lead directly to the inside.

It can be seen that this is not the first time she has done this kind of thing.

Through this road, Xier walked straight to the woman at the front who was carefully bandaging the wounds of the injured, and placed the supplies in front of her in a casual manner.

"Nata, didn't you say that there is a shortage of emergency supplies in the clinic? We just happened to go to Split World today and brought these things out."

"Of course, the main credit belongs to the person behind me. According to what Sambo said, it seems that he is an outsider other than Belloberg? Although I don't understand, he is really powerful. Let's break into the rift and It’s like playing house, there’s no danger at all.”

It is probably not difficult to infer from the previous conversation that Xi'er was actually raised by this doctor since she was a child.No matter how hard you try outside, you will inevitably behave a little badly when facing the relatives who have raised you since childhood.
