Chapter 110 Wanted Poster, Legion Warning
Chapter 110 Wanted Poster, Legion Warning
"So we need to head back to the upper city now, right?" March 7 stretched.
Such a tight adventure had even left her somewhat exhausted.
I've been on the go ever since I woke up at the Goethe Inn, and I've even been in two fights, though they weren't as intense as the one on Pandora.
“That’s right, I want to see the High Warden and confront her face to face.” Bronya nodded.
“I want to go with you too!” Seele said immediately.
"If Seele goes too, won't she be caught by the Iron Guards?" March 7 asked doubtfully.
At this moment, Xing silently raised her hand, "Um, it seems we were already wanted by the authorities."
"So it doesn't matter whether there's one more Seele or not."
March 7th fell silent. "It seems so..."
"Sigh, can't there be a time when we can go on a pioneering expedition without being wanted?" March 7th said helplessly.
"But how are we going to get back?" Bronya hesitated.
"The passage we came through must have been blocked by the Iron Guards; we would have been caught if we had shown ourselves."
"this....."
For a moment, everyone fell silent.
Suddenly, the sound of two old, calloused legs rapidly shifting and turning came from the air.
Sambo, leaving a trail of smoke in his wake, ran rapidly toward them.
"Of course, it's up to me, old Sambo!"
Sambo approached Eve and gestured for her to come.
"Hey? Uncle Blue Hair, you're back so soon?" Xing asked curiously.
He was sent flying so far by Eve, yet he returned so quickly.
"Ahem, there was a little mishap on the way; the rock formations up there were too hard." Sangbo scratched his head.
At this moment, two homeless people are still hanging on the rocky peak in the lower district.
"Big brother, do you think we can still go down there?"
"I don't know. That reseller said that if we sell his 'Little Black Boy with Horns Showing' figurine, he'll take us down."
"So, where is that guy now?"
"Uh...it seems we've been tricked again..."
............
"A minor mishap? It seems you felt you didn't use enough force." Eve smiled as she looked at Sambo.
"Cough cough cough cough... No way!" Sangbo immediately shook his head.
He didn't want to fly a second time, but this time it wasn't without its rewards; he even earned a considerable amount of Winter City Shields.
It's true, I never expected to meet fellow vacationers on the top of the rock.
“Hey, Sambo, do you mean you have a way to get us back to the upper city?” Seele asked.
“Of course, Miss Seele,” Sambo said with a smile.
“You can always trust Old Sambo. As long as the money is right, anything is negotiable.” Sambo rubbed his fingers together.
"How many do you want?" Bronya asked solemnly.
“Oh dear, Miss Iron Guard, you know how dangerous it is between the upper and lower city areas. You can get caught if you’re not careful. It will definitely take some effort to get through safely. And you know how much it costs, right?” Sangbo looked troubled, but his eyes were full of greed.
"Hey, aren't you trying to raise the price on the spot?" Even the usually naive Little March could see through it.
Eve nodded with satisfaction, remarking that her child had grown up.
"Raising prices on the spot? But aren't we underground?" Xing wondered.
“Uh…” March 7th glanced at Xing and was speechless.
Eve shook her head; the child was ruined.
Bronya, standing to the side, nodded slightly, having made up her mind. "I understand."
Just as she was about to take out her wallet, Seele suddenly pressed her hand down.
"Wait, Bronya, you actually believed that? We can't let this guy lead us by the nose."
“This guy is a notorious sly fox around here. You can easily get tricked by him if you’re not careful.” Seele looked at Sambo with a wary and angry expression.
"Old fox?" Bronya asked, puzzled.
“They’re even slipperier than loaches, you can’t catch them no matter what,” Seele explained.
“Hey, Miss Seele, you need to have evidence before you speak, okay?” Sambo immediately retorted.
"Oh? Are you sure? Charging the people of Earthfire? I remember you've ripped off Earthfire quite a few times before, haven't you?" Seele's eyes turned cold, and she directly placed the scythe against Sambo's neck.
"Should we settle the score now regarding what we promised the Earth Fire Brothers, and the black stockings figurine of Kripper?"
With each word Seele spoke, the scythe drew one step closer to Sambo.
Upon seeing the incredibly sharp sickle, Sambo immediately became obedient.
"Oh dear, Miss Seele, don't get so excited. I... I'm just here to give you guys some treats."
"Given that we've been partners for many years, we'll give you the meal for free this time."
"My kind-hearted old Sambo will give you a free ride up there," Sambo said with a fawning expression.
"Hmph, that's more like it."
Hearing Sambo say that, Seele put down her scythe this time.
"Uncle Blue Hair, how are you planning to take us up? Through the main entrance?" Xing asked curiously.
“How could that be?” Sambo shook his head. “Ladies, do you know how much you’re worth in the Upper City right now?”
“The arrest warrant has already been issued. If we weren’t friends and business partners, I would have reported you.”
As Sambo spoke, he took out several yellowed pieces of paper from his waist pouch and handed them to Eve and the others.
"Huh? This is my wanted poster? I can't see anything else about it except for the pink hair, can I?" March 7th held her wanted poster, looking utterly incredulous. The only thing that resembled her was the pink hair.
What's even more glaring is that he actually has a bounty of 10 Winter City Shields on his head.
“My wanted poster is perfectly normal; it’s just a picture of me from before.” Bronya looked at her wanted poster and saw nothing strange about it.
However, she felt somewhat emotional, realizing that she, who had once arrested others, was now the one being arrested.
Furthermore, a bounty of 15 Winter City Shields has been placed on his head.
Xing was holding the wanted poster in one hand, while gesturing wildly with the other.
"Hey? Xing, what are you looking at?" March 7th asked curiously as she approached.
When she saw Xing's wanted poster, she couldn't help but laugh. It was crooked and distorted, but apart from the gray hair that looked somewhat similar, it was almost identical to hers.
Who on earth drew this?
"Xing, what were you doing just now? You couldn't get angry when you saw your wanted poster looking like that," March 7 asked, puzzled.
Xing looked up at March 7th and said, "I never thought I was worth so much money."
"10 Winter City Shields, I'm wondering if I should report myself."
“Uh…” March 7th fell silent.
What's wrong with this kid's brain? Did he get stunned when he was hit by the Doomsday Beast's beam?
March 7th moved closer to Eve, "Eve~, let me see your wanted poster~"
She had already imagined how stunningly beautiful Eve would be depicted.
Given Eve's personality, she must be devastated!
Eve held up the wanted poster and said doubtfully, "I think this artist's drawing skills are quite good."
On Eve's wanted poster, her long, flowing hair cascaded down like a waterfall, dancing wildly as if every strand contained the vitality and dynamism of life. The slightly curled ends perfectly outlined her delicate and captivating face. Her features were like those of a celestial being descended to earth; her skin was as white as snow, as smooth as jade, radiating a mesmerizing glow.
Eve's beauty was perfectly captured on paper, even the finest strands of her hair were rendered with remarkable detail. March 7th was utterly dumbfounded.
Huh? No, are we sure these wanted posters were drawn by the same artist?
Why is mine a 2D cartoon character while yours is a 3D realistic version?
Even more shockingly, the bounty on Eve's wanted poster was a staggering 300,000, three times higher than theirs.
Eve looked at the wanted poster and shook her head slightly. "It's just that the details are a bit lacking. The fine strands of hair are drawn a bit too lightly."
March 7th was speechless for a moment. How could the difference between people be so great?
............................................................
"There's no time left, Cocolia..."
"I felt it, my kind..."
Cocolia looked somewhat bewildered as she listened to the words echoing in her mind.
"The same kind? You mean, there's another star core?"
"Yes." The Star Core's voice rang in Cocolia's mind once again.
"Where is it?" Cocolia jumped up from her chair.
"I don't know, all I know is that it seems to be a warning to me."
"Cocolia, our time is running out."
“I know, so what should I do?” Cocolia calmed herself down and sat back down in her chair.
"Integrate with me as soon as possible and forge a new world."
After Xingnu finished speaking, the voice completely disappeared from my mind.
Cocolia looked at the empty office and muttered to herself, "A new world, huh? I'm really looking forward to it."
"At that time, I will be the Mother of Creation."
...........................
On the other side, the Star Train is parked in the outer space of the Arillow 6.
Himeko entered the archives room, where Dan Heng was still searching through documents.
Walter Young, still searching for a way to remove the mental cage from his cane, said, "Just give him a little more time."
"How's Eve and the others' exploration trip going?" Himeko asked.
Dan Heng looked up and glanced at the data on the panel.
"It should... have gone fairly smoothly," Dan Heng said after thinking for a moment.
"So where are they at now? Are they in contact with the locals, or are they preparing to deal with the star core?" Himeko continued to ask.
Dan Heng shook his head. "No, they've progressed to the point where they're wanted by the police."
"Wanted..." Himeko was immediately embarrassed.
Why is this step always necessary on every exploration journey?
Even in a small place like Yalilo No. 6, it's the same.
"Sigh, whatever, let them be. Anyway, with Miss Eve around, they can't cause any trouble." Himeko sighed and then prepared to leave the archives.
"By the way, Himeko, I've discovered some problems here." Dan Heng suddenly called out to Himeko.
"What's the problem?" Himeko asked, puzzled.
"The train just detected that the fluctuations in the core of Yalilo 6 have become stronger, seemingly indicating a state of resonance," Dan Heng said.
"Moreover, the stability rate of star trails has dropped to 6%."
"Resonance at the same frequency?" Himeko's face showed a puzzled expression. "Could it be the star core inside the star?"
"No, it shouldn't be. Miss Eve has already shut down the star core inside the star. Under normal circumstances, it won't be activated on its own without external force."
Dan Heng paused for a moment, then continued, "It should be the star core inside Miss Eve's body."
"The star core inside Miss Eve's body?" Himeko frowned. "That star core is indeed activated, but its energy should have been completely absorbed by Miss Eve. The energy of the star core shouldn't be able to dissipate at all."
“That’s right, so I think it’s possible that the core of Yalilo 6 has developed its own consciousness. It sensed the existence of another core and actively initiated resonance.”
"This..." Himeko looked somewhat embarrassed.
"So, we don't have much time left, right?"
"They're coming?"
Danheng nodded, and was about to speak when the train suddenly sounded a loud alarm.
"Warning, warning! A large number of target units have been detected outside the main system of Yalilo 6 and are approaching the train."
"What's wrong? What's wrong?"
Pam, with her short little legs, quickly ran into the archives.
Meanwhile, Walter Young, who had already broken free from the prison of intellect, also arrived.
"A large number of unit targets are approaching the train? What happened?" Walter Young asked worriedly.
Dan Heng immediately stood up and started working on the computer: "They've arrived."
"Them?" Walter Young asked, puzzled.
“It’s very likely that they are an antimatter legion attracted by the high-frequency reaction of the star core,” Himeko explained from the side.
"Antimatter Legion?" Walter Young's face fell instantly.
Upon hearing the name, Pam also hid behind Himeko's legs in fear.
"Danheng, how much time do we have left?" Ji Zi walked to Danheng's side.
While operating the computer, Dan Heng said, "They are about 0.2 light-years away from Yalilo 6. At the speed of the Legion, we only have less than a day left."
Himeko pondered, "We must resolve the core crisis of Yalilo 6 as soon as possible."
"Contact Eve and the others, and tell them to hurry," Himeko said immediately.
"We're already trying to make contact." Dan Heng's hands didn't stop moving.
Himeko walked out of the archives, looked at the endless starry sky outside, and sighed.
"Hopefully, the Legion that has come this time does not include the Great Lord of Annihilation."
