Starry Sky Railway: Opening Performance - Taixu Sword God

("Zzzzzzzzzzz—")

Eric was very grateful, but he still stammered:

"Thank you, sister whose name I don't know! Please take all of these things!"

As he spoke, he moved aside, making way for the supplies behind him.

Furthermore, they were given some information about Rivet Town:

“You, you must be careful too! There seems to be something scary up there in the houses on the high ground… Oh, right! The road in front of the market is blocked… If you want to continue, you’ll have to go around through the shopping street.”

(“Rat-a-tat-tat-tat-tat—Boom!!” A flash of light came from the darkness behind.)

Bronya nodded and said gently:

"Okay, we understand. Thanks for reminding us."

After Eric left, Seele slowly spoke to Bronya:

"So many Winter City Shields, just given away like that? Are you sure it's okay? You two probably don't have any income, right? I heard you gave the Wanderers a lot of Winter City Shields last time too?"

("Bang bang bang bang bang -!!")

Bronya shook her head and explained:

“If it can make him completely change his ways, this price is nothing. Besides, the executive said that these Winter City Shields were a gift from angel investors, and that I shouldn’t be stingy with them.”

"What is an angel investor?" Seele had never heard of it before in the lower district.

She couldn't help but chuckle:

"Ha, what if he still doesn't repent?"

Bronya's tone remained gentle:

“From childhood to adulthood, my mother has always taught me to be tolerant and to cherish the kindness in people’s hearts… Even if I am just a glimmer of light, I should try my best to illuminate others.”

("Boom boom boom boom boom—!!")

Behind the two, flames were already raging into the sky.

Fragments of flying stones splashed onto Xi'er's face. She whirled around and shouted at Yan, who was using a grenade launcher in the distance:

"What are you doing? Is the chainsaw malfunctioning or something? The weapons are getting more and more outrageous!"

"Ahem." Yan's embarrassed voice came from the darkness. "You know what? This thing is much better than a chainsaw."

Bronya also said:

“Executive, I think we should keep things quiet... Rivet Town is where people from the Lower District used to live, and they might come back in the future, so it’s better to preserve it as intact as possible.”

Yan remained silent for a moment, seemingly still wanting more.

"Okay then (sizzling sound)"

The sound of the chainsaw started up again.

"Bang—!!" The sound of something hitting an iron gate came from the darkness.

"Ouch, this road is locked by an iron gate! I'll saw it down! Hehehehehe~!"

"Huh?" Seele was taken aback.

“Executive, wait, Eric said we can go through the shopping street!” Bronya reminded her.

"Shopping street my ass! Why take the long way around when you can just go straight? My beloved subjects, remember not to be bound by rules!! Hahahaha!! Watch as I saw through them!!!"

"Zzzzzzzzz—!!"

Sparks flew from the darkness, flying everywhere, as the chainsaw made a piercing sound as it sawed against the iron gate.

Bronya and Seele both covered their ears.

"Sizzle... sizzle... sizzle."

For some reason, the sound of the chainsaw teeth turning became quieter and quieter.

Until, from the darkness, came a cry of surprise from Yan:

"Oh no, the power's out. Let me look for another power source."

Xi'er ran to Yan's side and found that the iron gate had been sawed in half.

Yan squatted on the ground, searching for a backup power source among a pile of things.

"Hiss, where's the power?"

He kept shaking his trench coat, and more and more items fell off.

Washing machine, tank, magic wand, underwear, black stockings, you name it...

Seele was completely stunned.

"Dude, what are your clothes made of? Forget about the washing machine, what the hell is a tank?!"

Looking at the enormous thing in front of her, Seele couldn't understand how he could carry such a thing on his body!

Yan smiled contemptuously:

"Everyone's constitution is different, which is normal."

Seele sniffed, her eyes somewhat vacant.

Is that really the reason?

Bronya came over and advised:

"Executive, let's take a detour. It's okay if we have to go a little further."

Mr. Yan immediately stood up and said with righteous indignation:

"Sir, is it fate that we must take a detour? Even a fool could see that taking a detour would trigger other events! How can we let fate prevail?!"

After saying that, Yan immediately mounted the tank and slowly aimed the cannon at the iron gate.

Seele and Bronya were both stunned.

"Gentlemen, I, Yan, simply want to take a shortcut! What can fate do to me?!"

Without the slightest hesitation, he opened fire!

"boom--!!"

Suddenly, a loud bang echoed throughout the entire town of Rivet.

Fire shot into the sky.

The entire town was violently shaken, and some dilapidated buildings were directly collapsed by the shockwave...

The iron gate had by then been reduced to rubble by the tank's fire.

Of course, the tank was also reduced to scrap.

With his afro, Yan jumped off the wrecked tank and laughed at the two people behind him:

"See? I told you it could be opened!"

Seele shakily extended her finger, pointing to the spot where the iron gate had been:

"No, why did you block the cannon muzzle directly against the iron gate? If you had driven further away, you wouldn't have blown yourself up."

"Executive Officer, are you alright? Here's the gauze you just left. Let me bandage it for you."

"No need!" Yan waved his hand in refusal.

Then, he took out a wet towel from his pocket, wiped his face which was blackened by the explosion, wiped his hair, and finally combed it with his hands.

Mr. Yan raised both hands and exclaimed in admiration:

"Perfect! I'm completely fine now! Hahahaha!!"

He pulled a Green Dragon Crescent Blade from his robes and said in a deep voice to the two men behind him:

"Gentlemen, let's continue on our journey!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he brandished his Guan Dao and charged in, yelling "Waaaaah!"

Soon, the sounds of fighting could be heard from inside.

Seele stared blankly at the ruins of the iron gate.

Bronya spoke up:

"Now that the executive has cleared the way, let's head this way."

The two followed Yan Huan, who was now in a state of extreme power, and quickly advanced by stepping on the corpses of the creatures from the Rift Realm.

Seele looked around and then said to Bronya:

"If we don't take a detour, the direction we're going now will take us to the place where the painkillers are stored, and then we'll go up one step to the orphanage. It will be much faster than before."

Bronya nodded.

Ahead, swords flashed and shadows danced. Ever since Yan Huan's chainsaw was replaced with a Guan Dao (a type of halberd), his killing efficiency had decreased somewhat.

But that didn't stop him from continuing to wreak havoc.

Almost no creature from the Rift could withstand his third strike.

Soon, Seele and Bronya saw a faint light ahead.

Seele exclaimed excitedly:

"Look, we've arrived. The painkillers should be there!"

But in Bronya's sight, Yan stopped in his tracks.

If you look closely, you can see a white-haired girl and a traffic light robot standing in front of Yan Huan.

"Huh, is that Clara?" Seele asked in confusion.
