There was no hesitation in giving the order, and he expressed his willingness to sacrifice his life for the future of Beloberg as a soldier.

In that situation, what's the point of sacrificing your life?

If it really happens, it will be a waste of life.

Fortunately, they had no intention of hurting Bronya.

After hearing this, Xiluwa's originally calm face was inevitably covered with a layer of gloom.

No matter what, Cocolia was her closest friend in the past.

It’s hard not to feel good about what’s happening now.

"Is there any hope for her? If you can get rid of the star core..."

"We can seal the core of a star and save a world on the brink of destruction, but we cannot save a soul that has already fallen into the abyss."

Lingzhou's voice was a little deep.

The core of a star is called the cancer of all worlds and is not a good thing.

With enough ability, you can use the power of star cores to do many things.

On the contrary, it will be used by the star core to do many things.

Cocolia has been exploited many times, including but not limited to the outrageous decisions mentioned by Bronya.

He can heal a person's body, but he cannot heal a corrupted soul.

Whether Kokolia can be saved depends largely on herself, not on outsiders.

Xiluwa was not surprised by Lingzhou's answer.

"Then I hope both of her feet haven't stepped off the cliff yet..." Shiluwa said in a low voice.

At this point in the plot dialogue, many players finally understood why Cocolia became cold and ruthless.

The information I saw from the God's perspective before did not contain any smoke and mirrors.

They are all straightforward and explicit.

Cocolia really cares about Bronya, but Star Core doesn't care.

She has been replaced by someone else quite a few times, which may be a hint at her future fate.

[By the way… Cocolia’s model doesn’t look like an NPC, could she be a card pool character?]

[I'm not sure, if it's a card pool character, maybe it can't die, but if it's not, I'll probably send it.]

[Who told you that characters in the card pool will never die? Look at what this game is called?]

Xing: "This may not be the worst situation now. Can you contact Jeppard?"

Shiluwa: "Yes, he can, but my brother is very... well, to put it nicely, he's honest, but to put it bluntly, he's stubborn."

"That guy takes orders above all else. Even if you shove this letter in his face, he won't waver."

March 7: "(⊙o⊙)... the kind of blindly loyal subordinates you see in soap operas?"

Xing: "How can you talk like that? It's rude."

Those who are blindly loyal to melodramas generally don't have a good ending.

March 7: "Sorry, sorry..."

Shiluwa shook her head. "It's okay. After all, that's just his personality. Talking to him requires skill. If I want to convince him, I'm afraid I'll have to do it myself."

"That's great, if you're willing to help, right—"

"--But I haven't figured out a strategy yet." Shiluwa laughed.

San Yueqi's face froze and she reluctantly withdrew her smile.

Xing asked seriously, "Will my sister's bloodline suppression method not work?"

“…Well, it’s hard to say… Wait a minute—”

Before Xiluwa could finish the rest of her words, Lingzhou spoke the rest for her.

"Someone's coming. Judging by the footsteps, it's the girl named Pella. Are you familiar with her?"

Shiluwa: "We are familiar with each other, but she..."

The unique doorbell sound rang one after another at this time.

"It's too late. You guys hide back there first. I'll see what she's doing here visiting me at this hour."

Chapter 84: Someone Brings You a Pillow When You Doze Off

Shiluwa stood up and walked towards the door.

Ling Zhou whispered to Xing and the other two, "Go over there."

When they followed him to the corner, Lingzhou took out a piece of glass and held it in front of him.

Shiluwa was surprised to find that the glass had disappeared, along with the person behind it.

She opened the door and deliberately showed a surprised expression.

"Perla? Why are you back at this hour? Didn't you say the restricted area is very busy lately?"

Pyra blew a breath into her palm and walked into the house with a serious expression.

"It was precisely because I was so busy that Jeppard asked me to come back to gather information and meet with Lord Cocolia."

"Information? What information?"

Shiluwa glanced around the room inconspicuously and felt a little relieved.

Pera didn't notice her little action, and after hesitating for a moment, she told the truth.

"Last night, Lord Cocolia sent an order to transfer the large number of guards guarding the restricted area front."

"When I returned, I saw that most of the Iron Guards were patrolling the city. Their strength was estimated to be more than five times greater than usual."

"The transferred Iron Guards left overnight, and this morning a fierce battle broke out on the front lines, resulting in five casualties."

"Including casualties over the past 30 days, the total number of casualties is 35, 14 are missing, and 178 are left with varying degrees of injuries."

"For the reasons mentioned above, a gap has emerged on the northeastern side of the battle line that urgently needs to be filled."

"Given the current shortage of manpower in our army, we have proposed deploying the battalions of the automated mecha battle group to the gaps along the front."

"Guard Commander Jeppard is temporarily unable to leave the front lines, so he had no choice but to send me back to request reinforcements to deal with a greater unknown crisis."

When she heard the number of Iron Guards who died, Xiluwa frowned.

She already knew the purpose of Kokolia recalling the Iron Guards, but she didn't expect that so many people would die because of this move.

"Then why did you come to me? Shouldn't you go back to Klipperburg and find Cocolia right away?"

Pera: "I've seen it."

"Oh?"

Shiluwa glanced sideways.

"What did she say?"

"Lord Cocolia has ordered a fight to the death, claiming that if we hold out for three more days, we can resolve the current predicament."

Having said that, Pera looked worried.

Cocolia had no intention of sending the defender back to the front of the penalty area.

The troops were already insufficient, and now the commander is missing, and the monsters from the Rift Valley are becoming more active.

"With Lady Bronya gone, the front lines are lacking a backbone, and morale is quite low."

"There are even... a very small number of Iron Guards who speculate that Bronya-sama may have encountered... ah, I shouldn't say that."

Pera stopped talking in time.

Morale is more than just low.

After days of failed battles and heavy casualties, the truth is: morale has seriously declined.

There are already many complaints from various camps in the army. However, this dissatisfaction is not directed at the military commander, but at Cocolia.

Shiluwa laughed at himself and said, "I have long been unable to understand what that Cocolia guy is trying to do."

She had read Pera's words to find her own reasons.

"You want me to go to the restricted area to help, right?"

Pella was stunned for a moment, as if she had not expected her purpose to be revealed in such a sentence, and then nodded silently.

"...I've heard from many Iron Guards that over a decade ago, you were the brightest mind in the army."

"Guard Officer Jeppard hasn't slept for two days, and there's no news from Lady Bronya. Right now, I can only look for you..."

As for the fact that coming back to see Cocolia was a wasted trip, Pera did not dare to express her opinion openly.

Xiluwa's mind secretly became active.

Didn’t I just doze off and someone gave me a pillow?

Not only Lingzhou, she also wants to find the star core.

To find the core of the star, we must pass through the restricted area. I was worried that I didn’t have a legitimate reason, but now it’s solved.

But what needs to be said must be said.

"That was in the past. Now I'm just an ordinary citizen. How can I have the power to command the Iron Guard?"

"If Cocolia finds out, I won't be able to escape the charges, and neither will you."

Pera hesitated to speak, looking uneasy.

Shiluwa: "Whatever you want to say, feel free to say it. If it involves sensitive content, I promise not to leak it."

Of course, Lingzhou and the others would definitely hear it, there was nothing that could be done about it.

Pera gritted her teeth.

"The recent heavy casualties are all due to the Great Guardian's overstepping of authority!"

"Do you know how ridiculous the order she gave was?"

"In that battle four days ago, she actually ordered the Silver Mane Archer fire team to cross the cordon and advance twenty meters, almost engaging the enemy in close combat..."

"This contradicts Ochepolov's combat dynamics equations and negates the Iron Guard's extensive combat experience."

"After the battle, Lady Bronya will choose a date to persuade the Grand Guardian to return full command to the Silvermane Guard."

"It's a pity... she disappeared the next day. It's hard not to..."

Pera still didn't dare to finish.

In Beloberg, only the Grand Guardian has the ability to make a person disappear suddenly at will.

"According to the rules set by the city builders, the Iron Guard Commander is the one who holds the priority of command."

"If the Great Guardian can transcend the rules and regulations, why can't we do the same during this extraordinary period?"

"The Iron Guard cannot afford to suffer further losses. If the front lines collapse, Beloberg will lose its walls."

Shiluwa looked serious and gradually solemn.

"That's your idea, right? Jeppard probably doesn't know about it yet. Given his personality, he would never allow you or me to break the rules."

Pera: "Why don't you take command and let me, the intelligence officer, pass on the orders?"

Shiluwa nodded secretly.

I've been waiting for you to say this.

But in this case, she couldn't leave her post to look for the star core.

But at least, there is a chance to arrange for Lingzhou and the other four to pass through the restricted area.

Shiluwa: "Well, anyway, when do we leave?"

Pera's face lit up with joy.

"In half an hour, okay?"
