(The chapter title is a bit random, sorry to all the readers)

"Ms. Xier! Thank you so much. You helped us a lot in time." Sambo rubbed his hands gratefully.

"These wanderers are so arrogant that they dare to provoke us on Earth Fire's territory..." Sangbo was about to continue complaining but was interrupted harshly by Xier.

"Sangbo, shut up!" Xier glared at him. "The Earth Fire is already facing enough problems, so don't make things worse."

Seeing this, Sambo could only nod helplessly and said nothing more.

Seele looked around and finally fixed her eyes on Bronya.

"I heard that a Silver Mane Iron Guard ran to the lower area. Is it you?" Xier asked directly.

"What is your purpose in kidnapping me and taking me underground?" Bronya asked Seele.

"Purpose? Look at what has become of the underground!" Xi'er angrily accused, "What you call protection is to transfer all the Iron Guards away and block the upper and lower passages. Isn't this to protect those so-called city builders?"

Bronya responded slightly embarrassedly: "The Guardian has her considerations..." As she spoke, her eyes unconsciously moved to Lin Yu, and then she fell silent again.

"Hmph, anyway, come with me. Leader Oleg wants to see you." Seele said to Bronya.

"Oh, by the way, Miss Xier, we also have something we want to see the leader about. Can we travel together?" Sangbo took the opportunity to interrupt.

"Who wants to team up with you? Who are these people?" Xier looked at Lin Yu and others in confusion.

"We are...Sambo's friends." Lin Yu smiled awkwardly, even he felt that this reason was a bit far-fetched.

"His friends?" Xier sneered, "Most of the people underground are your enemies."

"No, these people are actually the talents the leader needs. I am just about to take them to meet Oleg." Sambo explained hurriedly.

"We are here to find something called star core. It is the source of all disasters. As long as we find it, we can..." March 7 was about to reveal more information but was interrupted by Sambo.

Sanbo interrupted March 7. "Hey...don't tell anyone about this. Oleg is the boss. Miss Xier doesn't understand this."

Is he implying that he understands it well? Lin Yu looked at Sangbo.

"I don't understand, and I don't intend to help you pass the message. The underground fire has encountered some trouble in the large mining area, and the boss is busy dealing with it. If you really want to see him, come to the entrance of the mining area to find me."

After hearing this, Xier said coldly: "I'll wait for you at the entrance of the mining area." Then she turned and left.

"Um... Miss Xier is just like that, don't mind it..." Sambo smiled awkwardly.

Bronya then spoke up, "The Silver Mane Guards have been ordered to withdraw to the ground. I cannot act as a guard here. Let's temporarily cease fire and work together before returning to the ground. I also want to know your true intentions."

"I met you the day before at the Goethe Hotel. Jeppard took you to meet the Great Guardian, and he told me that you were guests from outer space." Bronya continued, "Jepard said that you wanted to help us stop the damage to this planet caused by the cold wave and the rift, but that night... my mother summoned me and ordered me to lead troops to capture you. I don’t understand what happened. The Great Guardian didn’t tell me the details, and Jeppard also rushed to the front line... Since listening to Lin Yu's words, I began to doubt the authenticity of the Great Guardian's words... although I shouldn't doubt her." Bronya lowered her head.

"You have to trust your own judgment." Lin Yu comforted.

"In fact, I have always felt that something important has been concealed. Whether it is the actions of the City Builder, my mother, or the Silver Mane Guard, there is always something unnatural. Since we met, accidents have occurred one after another, and we even came to the blocked underground. I also have a hunch that by being with you, I can find the lost clues and solve my doubts."

"Ah... I'm sorry, we've been talking for so long and wasted a lot of time. Let's go meet that...underground fire." Bronya said.

...

"Wow? You're pretty quick." Xier stood at the door, watching Lin Yu and his group arrive, and joked casually.

"What on earth is Dihuo busy doing in the mining area?" Xing asked curiously.

"Ah, didn't I say that before? Well, in short, there used to be many mining areas underground, but in recent years, an erosion called the Rift has spread underground, causing many mines to be destroyed and unable to be mined."

"The mining area we are heading to is relatively well-preserved and clean. A group of wanderers who lost their homes due to the rift erosion have built a new residence there. Although most people are very peaceful, there are always some troublemakers who sneak in. As a result, there are constant conflicts between wanderers and miners. The wanderers often steal the miners' supplies. In the past two days, the conflict between the two sides has even broken out on a large scale, and the situation is quite serious."

"The mining area is an important lifeline for the underground. We must ensure the supply of underground marrow to ensure the delivery of materials on the surface."

"In order to control the situation, Chief Oleg has led the underground fire into the mining area, and the town's security work has been handed over to me. But the situation in the mining area is urgent, and I also need to go to support it. Oh, by the way, and you, when we meet the chief, we will see how he will deal with you."

Seele finished speaking and turned her gaze towards Bronya.

Bronya replied, "I was just thinking of meeting the leader of the lower district."

"Hmph, okay, then you can see for yourself the current situation underground." Xier snorted coldly.

Then everyone followed Xier, stepped on the iron tracks on the ground, and entered the large mining area.

"Huh? Isn't that the doctor sister? Isn't she...in the clinic..." March 7 said, pointing at Natasha in the distance.

Xier frowned: "Natasha actually appeared here...it seems that the situation is more serious than expected."

"Nata...I didn't expect that you would come too. Where is Oleg?" Xier asked.

"Hi Xier, and...the guests from Sambo, it seems you already know each other?" Natasha looked at the people around Xier.

"I'm not feeling well..." Xing said.

Natasha observed the star and said, "Huh? You look pretty good. Sorry, I have to treat the seriously injured first. There have been fierce clashes between miners and thugs in the past few days, and many people have been injured."

"Do you see these people? They are miners and their families. They are here to seek justice from the thugs who caused the trouble."

"That's the gathering place for wanderers in front. Now the entrance is sealed. I guess they're afraid of revenge from the angry miners." Natasha sighed.

"How could it get to this point?" Xier frowned, her tone full of confusion and worry.

As soon as she finished speaking, Jing Liu behind her suddenly spoke coldly, her voice as sharp as an ice knife: "Can't you take action? In this chaotic situation, killing the chicken to scare the monkey should be the most direct and effective method. It should be able to deter many people, right?"

Jingliu's words made everyone present feel a chill. Although her tone was calm, the coldness and ruthlessness revealed in her words made people shudder.

Xier turned around and faced Jingliu, with a complex emotion flashing in her eyes: "Jingliu, you don't know our principles. We can't just do it casually, especially in this situation. We need to find the root cause of the problem and solve it in a peaceful way."

Jing Liu did not respond directly to Xier's words, but just smiled coldly, a smile full of disdain and ridicule for this world.

Xier sighed. She knew that although Jingliu's words were cruel, they were not without reason.

In this chaotic era, sometimes extreme measures are needed to maintain order, but...she still firmly believes that peace and understanding are the key to solving problems.

But if the other party is serious... then I won't hold back anymore.
