You can't let him, a supporting character, pretend to be the protagonist and fight the BOSS in the end, right?

Don’t do that kind of thing!

He just wants to have fun.

Chapter 38: Stealing vegetables from Swarovski’s house!

"Danheng, Xier, have you resolved the issue here?"

After taking a photo with San Yue Qi and waiting for the iron in the furnace to burn out, Xing He and the other man walked out of the passage and shouted to Dan Heng and Xier who were not far away.

Dan Heng raised his hand towards them as a greeting, and then replied: "The information has been recorded almost completely. I will ask Xing He to supplement the remaining information and then enter it into the think tank."

Xing He nodded, then turned to look at Xi'er: "Xi'er, what about you?"

Xier raised her hand and pointed at the Dihuo members who were cleaning up the scene not far away: "The support has arrived, and the matter here is almost over."

"Well, that's good. By the way, remember to ask your companions to light up the dark places around here with torches or other light sources, so that those monsters will not appear."

"Okay, I'll remember to tell them."

After Xier told these words to the members of the Earth Fire who came to support them, the four of them headed back towards the mechanical settlement.

"By the way, Xi'er, do you have pumpkins here?"

Xing He just remembered at this moment that although he had collected the four iron blocks needed for the iron golem, he still didn't have a carved pumpkin to use as the head.

"Pumpkin? Of course there is. After all, it is one of the few crops that are relatively cold-resistant."

On Yalilo, most plants cannot survive, leaving only those that are more cold-resistant. Pumpkin, a relatively cold-resistant plant, can still be planted in the lower area as long as the temperature is slightly controlled.

However, Xier quickly changed the subject and said, "As you know, our town is a settlement built on the basis of the former mines, and there is no sunlight. The few places with sunlight in the lower area are the mechanical settlements. Because of the special geology there, there are some holes on the surface, and the sunlight can shine through there, and..."

"and?"

The three of them looked at Xier, whose expression suddenly became a little strange, with curiosity on their faces.

Xier glanced around and whispered in the ears of the three people, "I don't like gossip very much, but I have heard before that in order to take care of a little girl named Clara that Swarovski adopted, he specially built a farm in his villa area, where he planted some of the few crops in the lower area."

"Ouch."

Xing He crossed his arms and said, "It turns out that the pumpkin and star core clues we need are all related to Swarovski. If it were a game or a novel, it would definitely be an elite monster."

San Yueqi couldn't help but look at Xing He and asked curiously, "Xing He, why do you suddenly want pumpkin? Aren't the food I brought you before enough?"

"No, didn't Xier say before that Swarovski was not very friendly? I thought we might have to fight on each other's territory, so I thought about recruiting some reinforcements to help."

"Reinforcements? What does this have to do with pumpkins?" March 7 expressed his incomprehension.

Xing He just smiled at her mysteriously: "You will know when the time comes."

The four of them moved very quickly, and soon they arrived at an underground mine that was larger than a small town. Looking up, they couldn't even see the top of the rock wall. They could only vaguely see a few rays of sunlight shining through some places.

Xier stood on a high place and pointed to a simple gathering place far below. At the outermost edge of the gathering place, there was an independent villa area connected by only a bridge.

"Look, that's the mechanical settlement, and that villa area is where Swarlow is."

Xing He immediately opened the large map function of the small map, and a square map screen immediately appeared in front of him. The map was full of biological marks. In addition to hundreds of different names, there were also a bunch of "monsters" named in the format of [Automatic Soldier·XXX].

“Are those robots?”

After turning off the big map, Xing He asked Xier beside him.

Xi'er nodded: "Those iron lumps are all Shiwaro's men, and they are controlled by him to guard the mechanical settlement."

"There are so many....but why are there humans mixed in?"

Sanyueqi also noticed that there were human figures walking through the mechanical settlement from time to time.

Seeing San Yue Qi asking this, Xi'er's expression was a little complicated: "These people are wanderers who have taken refuge with Swarro and sought its protection. They can be considered half of Swarro's subordinates."

“This amount...”

Dan Heng frowned and reminded, "We are not at an advantage in numbers. Everyone, try not to conflict with the other side this time. We are only here to inquire about the [Star Core], not to fight."

When Danheng said this, he also looked at San Yueqi carefully.

"What are you doing!" San Yue Qi put her hands on her hips in dissatisfaction: "Do I look like a belligerent person? If you want to see someone, then look at Xing He!"

Xing He immediately stood next to Dan Heng and shook his head, saying, "Sanyue, passing the buck is not a good habit."

When San Yueqi saw Xing He "defecting" to Dan Heng, he was so angry that his cheeks puffed up.

"You two are so infuriating!"

"Alright, three of you, let's go. This is my first time looking for Swarovski, so be careful."

After Xier reminded the three people, she took the lead and walked into the mechanical settlement.

As soon as the four of them entered the mechanical settlement, they immediately attracted the curious gazes of the wanderers.

"Isn't this Xi'er from the Earth Fire? Why is she here?"

"Who knows? Maybe he's here to see Boss Swarovski?"

"Is it possible that Dihuo is going to fight with Boss Swarro?"

Ignoring the discussions around them, the four of them walked all the way to the bridge leading to the Swarlow residence, but were soon blocked by a sturdy iron gate at the end of the bridge.

"Like a code door."

Dan Heng walked forward, took a look and came to a conclusion.

"I know this!"

Sanyueqi walked forward confidently, put his hands on his hips and shouted, "Zhima~ Open the door!"

however.

The door didn't respond.

Everyone:......

Xing He burst out laughing, and San Yueqi blushed and blew a completely silent whistle.

"It's normal to get the password wrong!"

Xier frowned and asked, "Is there any other way?"

Xing He took out his pickaxe and said, "Leave it to me. You think you can stop me with just an iron door?"

Dan Heng saw Xing He took out the pickaxe and hurriedly stopped him, saying, "Xing He, don't mess around. We are here to have a friendly exchange, not to provoke you by tearing down someone's door."

Xing He gave him a look that reassured him.

Not to mention that he had no intention of breaking the door directly. Even if he did, Xing He could just put the door down after everyone went in!

"I didn't go to take down the door. I just took a look and saw that Swarovski was in the house, and there were pumpkins in the farmland next to the house."

"Let me dig a hole and steal some vegetables."

Chapter 39 Negotiations break down, preparations for action

Xing He held a pickaxe in his hand and chiseled a hole in front of the gate in front of several people and crawled in.

Xi'er watched Xing He sneak into the mansion like a mole, and couldn't help but turn her head to ask Dan Heng: "Why don't we go in together? This way, Xing He won't have to help open the door, right?"

Dan Heng shook his head: "We are not here to conflict with Swarovski. Standing outside the door and waiting while helping Xing He attract Swarovski's attention is the best option."

"OK then."

In the back garden of the mansion, a white-haired girl in a red dress with bare feet on the ground was humming a cheerful tune and watering the vegetables in the field.

"You guys need to grow up quickly~"

Clara smiled and squatted down in front of a pumpkin and stroked it gently.

Suddenly, Clara vaguely heard a rustling sound in the soil under her feet.

Before she could react, the soil beneath her feet suddenly disappeared, and Clara only had time to let out a scream before falling into the hole.

The rapid feeling of falling made Clara close her eyes in fear, but after waiting for a while, the pain did not come from her back. Instead, she felt like she fell into a warm embrace.

Clara opened her eyes tremblingly, and saw Xing He, a man with gray hair and golden eyes, looking down at her.

"Thank you, thank you, big brother."

Clara just gave Xing He a sweet smile, but who knew that the next second Xing He just threw her to the ground aside.

"Ouch."

Clara touched her sore butt with a look of grievance, and when she looked up at Xing He, she found that he had already left the cave by using the blocks as a cushion.

When Xing He came up to the ground and saw the vegetable garden full of vegetables, he whistled with joy.

"Not bad, it finally looks like a village."

Xing He first took out an axe and chopped down a few pumpkins nearby and put them into his backpack. Then he immediately waved his fists and put all the vegetables in his sight into his backpack.

Fortunately, the vegetables planted in this vegetable garden are all familiar ones, such as wheat, carrots, and potatoes, and there are no strange vegetables.

While Xing He was still immersed in harvesting vegetables, Clara crawled out of the hole with difficulty. As soon as she came out, she saw Xing He working on her vegetable patch.

"that..."

It was the first time that Clara met a stranger who didn’t treat her as a stranger. She clenched her hands in front of her timidly.

"Big brother? Are you hungry?"

Xing He turned around when he heard the sound, and seeing Clara's petite figure and polite words, he didn't know how to respond for a moment.

In the past, if he stole vegetables in front of the villagers, they would only snort a few times. Even if the other party wanted to attack him, he would fight back without fear. At most, he would massacre the entire village and then find the next one.

But this situation was the first time he encountered it.

Seeing that Xing He didn't say anything, Clara mistakenly thought that he was really hungry, so she had to sneak in and steal the food.

"Big brother, if you are really hungry, then take these vegetables first. It's okay, Clara, but can you leave the seeds behind? Otherwise, the land here won't be able to grow vegetables in the future. If you are hungry again, there won't be any vegetables for you to take."

Clara looked timid, as if she was begging.

Xing He immediately covered his chest, feeling that his conscience was condemned.

"Okay, I'll plant it for you."

The other party just asked him to plant the land again, and Xing He naturally would not refuse. Anyway, after he harvested these vegetables, he would have a lot of extra seeds.

Xing He quickly planted the land again, then took a look at Clara's bare feet, thought for a while, and took out the workbench to make her a pair of iron boots.

"Here, I'll give it to you as compensation."

Xing He handed the iron boots to Clara. Such a polite and gentle little girl was worthy of his giving four iron ingots.

"Ah? For Clara?"

Clara took the iron boots from Xing He somewhat at a loss, as she had never seen this style of shoes before.

Although Clara didn't like wearing shoes, she politely accepted it and thanked him.

"Thank you, big brother. Clara likes it very much."

"I'm glad you like it. I'll leave first. I have a companion waiting for me to open the door."

"Open, open the door?"

"Of course, they are waiting for me to open the door to your house."

Clara:?

When Xing He was about to leave, he suddenly noticed that a mark marked with Swarovski on his small map suddenly flashed near him.

Then a tall mechanical figure slowly emerged behind Clara. Its scarlet single eye flashed after looking at Xing He, and then it swung its iron fist towards Xing He.

"Leave Clara!"

Xing He reacted quickly and blocked with his shield, but Svaro's swift punch hit the shield with only a dull thud, and Xing He didn't even take a step back.
