Star Iron: The Past and Present Life of the Gender-Swapped Dragon Lord

Why are you in the Rift?

"...Would you believe me if I said I got lost and ended up here?"

"Lost? That shouldn't be the case."

After a brief conversation with Danheng, Xier accepted the fact that Danheng was an extraterrestrial visitor with some skepticism, and the two were now chatting casually.

When Xier heard Danheng say that she was lost, she was puzzled. Then Xier took out a map.

A map of the lower levels that even a fool could understand.

"Then you probably don't have this map, right? If you had this map, even a fool could figure it out."

Danheng: ...

noob:……

Seele waved the map in her hand, then noticed that Danheng had fallen silent.

"what happened to you?"

"Oh, it's nothing. Can I see this map?"

Xi'er nodded. It wasn't anything valuable, so she handed it directly to Danheng.

Undeterred, Danheng still clung to a sliver of hope for the map, finding an excuse to convince herself that the map was faulty.

But this simple hope was shattered when Danheng discovered that the map was exactly the same as her previous one.

Am I really bad with directions?

impossible! Absolutely impossible!

Scratching her head, Xi'er felt a little strange looking at Danheng, whose art style was becoming increasingly gloomy.

Perhaps extraterrestrials cannot understand such a rudimentary map as ours?

I don’t understand…

"So, do we need to go deeper into the rift?"

Danheng looked at the map and made his final judgment with trembling hands.

"No?" Seele leaned closer for a look. "You're holding the map upside down?"

"We're on our way out."

A sound of something breaking rang out, and Seele looked around but didn't find anything unusual.

Shaking her head, Seele strode toward the exit, leaving a small, emo-like blue dragon, its shadow lines filling the space, standing there.

Dan Heng: "..."

Xiaobai: "It's okay, it's okay. If you can't understand the map, you can just use navigation."

Dan Heng: "Thank you, the body is still warm."

Having officially confirmed that he was the most directionally challenged person in the universe, Dan Heng followed Seele with a look of utter despair and silently left this heartbreaking rift.

After leaving the rift, Danheng finally arrived at Rocky Town under Seele's guidance.

Looking at the bustling Panyan Town, Danheng's eyes filled with tears.

Brothers, we've finally arrived at Rocky Town... uh...

"Alright, we've arrived, I'll be going now."

Xi'er greeted Dan Heng, then turned and left.

Danheng stood alone on the road, trying hard to recall the plot. After thinking for a moment, he walked towards a place that looked like a clinic.

Upon arriving at the gate, a faint mixture of alcohol and medicinal scents wafted out. Dan Heng pushed open the door and went inside.

As soon as I entered, I heard a gentle voice.

"Hello, is there anything wrong with your body?"

Dan Heng looked up and saw a woman in white sitting in the simple but clean clinic. Her dark blue hair concealed a pair of red eyes, and her slightly drooping eyes, combined with her unique doctor's demeanor, gave this mature woman a gentle, motherly air.

It was still Belloberg's signature high-fiber lipstick, and Dan Heng recognized the character.

Dr. Natasha is also the true leader of the Earth Fire.

"Hmm...aren't you a patient?"

Seeing that Danheng's expression was perfectly fine, Natasha began to scrutinize the girl who had remained silent since entering.

The images of three outsiders flashed through Natasha's mind, and she began to understand.

"You're here to see those three outsiders, right?"

Dan Heng nodded. "Yes, I got separated from them. Could you please tell me where they went?"

Natasha's expression became somewhat subtle after hearing Danheng's words.

"A girl in a simple blue dress, tall and slender, seemingly aloof but actually quite approachable... a slightly naive girl, that must be you, right?"

"To be honest, they came looking for you as soon as they woke up, Miss Danheng."

Dan Heng listened to Natasha's description; the beginning seemed normal, until the end...

Judging from the tone of voice, you can tell that it came from March 7th.

Dan Heng slapped his forehead in exasperation. It turned out that both sides had been working towards the same goal, but they just hadn't found it yet.

"Okay, thank you, Dr. Natasha. I'll go find them now."

Dan Heng thanked Natasha, then pushed open the door and walked out.

"Wait……"

Before Natasha could finish speaking, Danheng had vanished from the clinic.

Natasha shook her head and was about to pick up her pen to continue counting the supplies when she heard the door being pushed open.

"Hello, is this...why are you here again?"

Looking back, there was Dan Heng, who had just stormed out of the door.

"Um... could you please tell me where they went?"

"...You should be able to see it on the way to the mining area."

"Oh."

"Why don't you leave?"

"...Actually, I have a terrible sense of direction, yes, just a little bit."

"..."

Natasha reluctantly put down her pen and looked at Danheng, who was standing somewhat uneasy at the door.

He really is a bit simple-minded.

Natasha agreed with Danheng's assessment; indeed, this child was a bit naive, just like that pink-haired girl.

Yes, that's right. This "foolishness" is Natasha's concise summary of Danheng's words after her brief encounter with March 7.

It wasn't said on March 7th, but it's even better than what was said on March 7th.

Danheng, who was far away, also agreed with this.

"Alright, I'll take you to find them. They must be getting impatient."

……

"Antonina? What are you doing out here?"

Before Natasha even reached the mining area, they spotted Antonina sitting helplessly outside.

"Natasha? And Danheng? I didn't expect to see them again so soon."

Antonina gave a forced smile upon hearing the voice.

"Sigh, don't even mention it. I thought you could start digging properly after you drove the vagrants away, but I never expected... sigh."

"The wanderer has returned?"

Danheng looked puzzled. It shouldn't be like this. She had intimidated those homeless people like that. They shouldn't have left in the morning and come back at night, right?

"That's not it... After what you've done, they wouldn't dare to come back."

Antonina gave a wry smile. "It's Schwarz. His robots suddenly appeared, took over the entire mine, and won't let anyone in no matter what."

"It seems to be saying something like... to avoid conflict between the mining team wanderers and the subterranean fire."

"Well... haven't all the people from 'Earthfire' gone in?"

Danheng understood the situation and was about to ask more questions when a familiar voice came from behind him.

"Hey! Sambo! Is your information accurate or not? We've been looking for it for almost a whole day!"

"Oh, Miss, I really don't know where that heroine went. I'm helping you find the people from the Earth Fire to help you, but we can't find a single one after all this time."
