The remaining sadness in my heart quickly disappeared.

[Fuck you, I can't imagine how embarrassing it is for Qiong to say this.]

[The poet from the Meiyi Pavilion in the copywriting team, is this something a human could come up with?]

[As I mentioned, Mihoyo made a game just to play with the meme.]

[They said they found this joke on the internet, but why don't I find it even when I'm on Douyin for eight hours every day?]

【Don't worry, you will get it starting today. 】

[Coming from the livestream room next door, Qiong Bao said this with such grievance that I almost laughed myself to death.]

"I'm really impressed by you. Luckily I prepared a lot of snacks."

Before San Yueqi finished speaking, her face suddenly froze.

He slowly tilted his head and gave an awkward yet polite smile.

“…Um, I forgot to bring my snack package…”

Just as Xing was about to scold her, Bronya, who was on the high ground, finally came down.

Lingzhou smiled slightly and took out the portable food stored in the system space.

"Don't worry, the reliable adults have taken care of this. Just eat while you walk."

The four of them started heading towards the mine entrance to look for Xier.

Like other players who have just experienced the game, Axian feels fresh about the plot.

Although we are still looking for Xier, the process is different from the internal test.

Along the way, there is more dialogue between Lingzhou and Bronya.

Through these conversations, players' impression of the lower-level environment has been further deepened.

Cocolia is truly guilty of a heinous crime!

This also includes the display of Bronya's contradictory mentality, in order to shape her gradual changes.

It is not difficult to see from Bronya's performance that Ling Zhou's words had a great impact on her.

"From my personal perspective, Lingzhou's husband's purpose in saying this to Yaya is becoming increasingly clear."

"He wants Yaya to rebel against her relatives who are on the wrong path and truly save this world that is on the verge of breaking apart."

“Nothing can change a person’s mind more quickly than seeing the bitter fruit of a mistake firsthand.”

The subsequent unexpected encounter further confirmed her interpretation.

A group of vagrants blocked the road and robbed people.

Xing took out a baseball bat and stood in front of March 7.

"You want to find confidence in me? You'll regret it. Get out of the way."

【What a reliable man! 】

【Strongly protect my wife in March.】

The screen cracked and entered the battle.

After killing two waves of wanderers, the plot begins.

The camera locked onto the rapidly diving sickle, landing in the middle of the two groups of people.

Before they saw the owner of the sickle, the wanderers blocking the road ran away faster than each other as if they had seen a ghost.

"Oh no! It's that evil star, Dihuo! Run!"

Seele came over, grabbed her weapon and looked at Bronya.

"How about you, Miss Above, give us your thoughts on the current situation below?"

Bronya: “…”

The silent shot lasted nearly ten seconds.

Bronya's chaotic eyes silently explained her powerlessness.

Everyone could see that nothing she said now would help.

"Cocolia is really not a human being. She has been making up lies for more than ten years."

"Yaya is such an upright person who has always been dedicated to the country and the people. How sad must it be for her to see the lower class like this?"

Ah Xian sighed, his voice a little hoarse.

When saying this, isn't it also temporarily putting yourself in Bronya's shoes?

Her real experience is essentially not much different from Bronya's experience in the game.

It was not easy for Bronya to control her emotions and not collapse after being deceived by the person she trusted the most.

"We just let them get away like that? Those guys actually robbed us on the road. Aren't they too lawless?"

A look of indignation flashed across Sanyueqi's face.

Xier snorted coldly.

"Otherwise, if we capture them and bring them back, we'll have to provide them with food. We don't even have enough to eat for ourselves, so how can we care about those scum?"

Hearing this, the players felt even more upset.

It sounds quite harsh, but this is the bloody reality.

Catching someone and locking them up without providing them with food is tantamount to taking their life.

If we don't catch them, these desperate people will choose to rob.

When it comes to survival, there is no right or wrong.

Only stance.

Xier: "Miss, it's too early to show that expression now."

"how?"

Bronya released her lower lip, which was almost bitten to the point of bleeding.

"Like I said before, the Underworld is in some trouble. Guess what?"

"The wanderers have set their sights on... the miners?"

"You still have some sense. Come on, I'll show you what a mess the underground is in."

Xier snorted coldly and walked forward on her own.

The three members of the train crew looked at each other and quickly followed.

Not long after, we met another group of people.

March 7 happened to be taking pictures with his camera, and through the zoomed-in lens, he saw a familiar figure in the distance.

"Sister Natasha is over there!"

Xier looked very unhappy.

"Natasha's unexpected appearance at this hour... Looks like some new trouble has broken out."

She stepped forward quickly.

"Nata, you're usually at the clinic taking care of patients at this hour, so why are you here? Where's Chief Oleg?"

Natasha turned around and pointed at the group of people not far away with a serious expression.

"According to the miners, Oleg led a group of people deeper into the mines."

"As for the situation here..."

"See these people? They're miners and their families. They're here to seek justice from the troublemakers."

"This road leads directly to the homeless settlement, but now the entrance is blocked. They're probably afraid of retaliation from the angry miners."

Xier looked at the mine entrance from afar and found that there was indeed a group of people blocking it.

"This group of people even have guns. Why did it get to this point?"

Hearing this, Natasha explained:

"It's said that the First Mining Team has discovered a new vein of earth marrow ore, with astonishing reserves."

"Preliminary estimates suggest this is the largest mineral deposit discovered in the past thirty years."

Xier was stunned.

"It must be fake. Such big news, yet I haven't heard a single word about it."

Natasha shook her head and explained the cause of the conflict.

"Because the First Mining Team didn't want to make it public, most of the mining area has now been eroded by the Rift, and many people have lost their jobs."

"If this news gets out, that mining area will definitely be overrun by other miners."

"But you know, the news can't be hidden from homeless people wandering around."

"Some hooligans are trying to cash in on this and are extorting hush money from the mining team, which is against the bottom line of the miners."

"Resources belong to the first discoverer; this has always been the law of the underground."

"But the wanderers clamored for their own rule: whoever sees it gets it."

"The result was a violent conflict between the two groups, with neither group yielding to the other and resulting in heavy losses."

Chapter 43 It’s a bit heavy, Master Zhou

Ling Zhou: "So, if we want to enter the mining area to find the leader of the underground fire, we have to get past the hooligans first?"

Natasha: "This is the only quickest way into the mining area. This is a big deal, and reconciling the two sides won't be easy."

Xier's face darkened and she glanced coldly at those thugs.

"In that case, let's take another path."

"The trouble deep in the mines hasn't been resolved yet. I don't have time to waste on words with the scum here."

"It would be even worse if my temper escalated the conflict."

She knows her own temperament very well.

She wasn't afraid of being held at gunpoint.

But there are so many people here, and once the first shot is fired, the consequences will be unpredictable, and it will lead to even greater chaos.

Otherwise, how could I choose to take a detour?

Lingzhou asked the key question: "Will it take a long time to take a detour?"

Xier nodded: "Yes."

"Then it's better to resolve the current conflict first."

Having said that, Lingzhou turned his head to look at his companion and spoke very considerately.

"Although I'm not in good physical shape, I'm still a grown man after all, and I can still endure the fatigue."

"But my companion has never had a good meal or sleep since coming into this world."

"They're already working hard. Wouldn't it be even more tiring if they took a long detour?"

After hearing these words, San Yue Qi looked at Ling Zhou with shining eyes.

Just like in previous pioneering journeys, Lingzhou is still so considerate to his partners~~

Although, she wasn't particularly tired...

"I don't like your words. It's as if we underground people can only eat and sleep well one day."

Xier wanted to sneer, but she couldn't laugh in the current situation.

Lingzhou laughed instead.

"Just as you prioritize Earthfire and your own people, I do the same."

"Compared to you, my first priority is my closest companion from the beginning to the end."
