Chapter 35 Bronya: Duck?
The majestic walls of Beloborg stood tall amidst the wind and snow, the massive gears turning slowly with a deep rumble, and the heavy city gates opened to the crowd at Jepard's signal.
Stepping through the city gate felt like entering another world.
Unlike the outside world, where wind and snow raged, the ground inside the city gate was paved with bricks and stones. Various buildings lined both sides of the street, each with its own unique features, but without exception, every household had a red tubular object standing at its door, which seemed to be some kind of heating system.
The train crew looked around at their surroundings. It was truly remarkable that such a world could be created amidst the wind and snow. It seemed that the administrators of this world were not some kind of idiots.
"Please follow me." Upon arriving in the city, Jepard dismissed the soldiers and led the group toward the city's largest building—the Great Guardian's Temple.
"Even though I've been to so many worlds, I still get a little nervous every time something like this happens," March 7 said, looking at the enormous palace.
"Because this represents a world leader, it's normal to be nervous," Chen Feng said with a smile, looking at the palace in front of him, he was also a little dazed.
In his previous life, he probably wouldn't have dared to enter such a place, but things are different now. He is now the guardian of the realm, a supreme being in the entire universe, and countless forces are eager to climb up to him.
The difference in strength and perspective can change a person's thoughts. Now, facing such a huge palace, Chen Feng had no other thoughts but amazement.
Standing here, Chen Feng could already faintly sense that familiar aura, an aura he had encountered not long ago—Xing Xiao.
In the universe, Starroar is the messenger responsible for dropping star cores to bring destruction to civilizations, so Chen Feng was not surprised that he could sense Starroar's aura.
She felt a little helpless. The aura of the star core was already so obvious. It seemed that Cocolia had been deeply corrupted. She wondered if it was still possible to separate it.
"Please wait here for a moment, everyone. I'll go and explain this to the High Warden first." After arriving at the steps outside the hall, Jepard finished speaking to everyone and went inside.
Although Jepard trusted them greatly, rules are rules. These people were strangers to the High Warden, and he couldn't just bring them in directly.
"What kind of person do you think this Great Guardian will be?" March 7 asked curiously after Jepard left.
"I don't know." Dan Heng shook his head.
"Dad, I feel like you're very familiar with this world, you know?" Xing looked at Chen Feng, surprised.
"You'll know when you see it." Chen Feng chuckled, then paused and said to everyone, "But everyone, please note that I'm telling you this because Jepard isn't here."
"The Star Core is on this Great Guardian; you must be prepared."
"What!" Upon hearing this, March 7th's pupils constricted, and he exclaimed in surprise, "The Star Core is on the Great Guardian?! No way."
Dan Heng was also very surprised, but an envoy wouldn't make a baseless accusation, so it was probably true.
"What on earth is going on?" Xing was also dumbfounded. He thought their target would be outside, but Chen Feng actually said that their target was the Great Guardian. Was he joking?
Chen Feng knew that this matter was indeed quite astonishing, but there's a saying...
We were prepared to fight to the death, so why did Your Majesty surrender first?
"Like I said, you'll find out when the time comes. I'll tell you the specifics after we've dealt with the star core." Chen Feng waved his hand, just as Jepard returned.
"What are you talking about?" Jepard asked curiously. He had only been gone for a short while, so why did everyone's expressions suddenly become so strange?
"Um, this." March 7 didn't know what to say. She looked at Jepard with a strange expression. Was she going to tell him that their boss had already defected to the enemy?
"Let's go first." Dan Heng didn't know how to explain, but since Chen Feng didn't intend to let Jepard know, he wouldn't say anything. They would find out in a while.
Jepard, puzzled, led the group toward the High Protector's Hall.
After passing through several rooms, they soon arrived at the management room at the far end. As soon as they reached the door, they heard arguing coming from inside.
"Great Guardian, I still think you should reconsider the matter of the Lower City. How can we close it down? What will happen to the people of the Lower City?"
"Enough! Bronya, I have my own plans. You don't need to say anything more about this. Go down, we have guests."
With doubts in their hearts, the group pushed open the door and saw what was inside: a blonde beauty dressed as a Great Guardian was reprimanding a silver-haired woman.
The blonde is none other than the Great Guardian Cocolia, while the silver-haired woman is Bronya, whom Cocolia refers to as Bronya. She is also Cocolia's adopted daughter and the next Great Guardian.
"I'm sorry, everyone. Please excuse the commotion." Seeing so many people coming in, Cocolia quickly suppressed her anger, while Bronya, seeing that there were guests, didn't say anything more and could only leave temporarily.
Just then, a hand blocked Bronya's path.
"Ya Ya, you can stay here. You need to know what's coming next." Chen Feng subconsciously said his nickname from his previous life. After all, Ya Ya was more popular than Bronya.
Chen Feng felt a little awkward as soon as he finished speaking. After all, they didn't know each other at all, and suddenly addressing each other so intimately could easily get him scolded.
But Chen Feng quickly stopped caring. Now that he was being inspected by leaders, why should he be afraid of this?
"Duck, duck?" Bronya on the other side was a little confused. Although she didn't know when she got such a nickname, it was obvious that the nickname was being used on her.
"Sir, do we know each other?" Although she felt a little uncomfortable, Bronya couldn't say it out loud since he was her mother's guest, so she asked in return.
"I know you, but you may not know me," Chen Feng said mysteriously.
He paused for a moment and then said, "Anyway, you can stay here. After all, what I'm about to say concerns your world, and as the next Great Guardian, you should know about it."
"How bizarre—" Bronya frowned slightly. Could things be this serious? Could this person be some kind of con artist?
Thinking about this, Bronya suddenly felt that she really needed to stay. Since these people were very likely to be fraudsters, she had a responsibility to expose their true colors and not let her mother be deceived.
