Chapter 23

Natasha also noticed Xier's abnormality at this time: "She..."

Pei Guang: "Don't worry, this is a specialty of our hometown, relaxing coffee. After drinking it, the body will enter a completely relaxed state and sleep for ten minutes, and nothing will happen after ten minutes."

Natasha looked at the cup of coffee on the ground, and the temptation like an abyss made her look alert. She came to Xier and checked it. Just like Pei Guang said, she just fell into a deep sleep and there was no abnormality to her body.

"Excuse me, can I take some of this liquid away?"

Natasha noticed the full cup of coffee again. She remembered clearly that Xier drank a lot, but why was there so much? This is very problematic.

Pei Guang: "No problem, pour as much as you want. When the last sip or a certain amount of this thing is in the cup, you will fall asleep. I don't know how this was born, but every time I look carefully, I can see a black handsome man looking at me. It's very interesting. Oh! Please help me keep an eye on the silver-haired girl. She is the daughter of the Great Guardian. If she wants to wake up, feed her another cup. I tested it when I was resting before. Drinking ten cups in a row did not affect the body. On the contrary, the more you sleep, the more energetic you will be."

March Seven looked at the coffee curiously: "Black handsome man? What is that?"

Pei Guang: "It's a purple preserved egg with two eyes. I will draw it for you later."

March Seven looked at the coffee carefully. She stared at the ripples on it and said with some interest: "I didn't see the purple egg... but it looks quite appetizing."

As for taking another sip, March Seven didn't dare to do it. The three of them drank a lot when they were dying.

At this moment, Natasha showed a deep look. The daughter of the Great Guardian was caught by him and took the train down? There is a problem, a big problem. Although the guards on the train were not particularly strict, ordinary people could not think of getting off. Looking at the state of Pei Guang and his group, it seemed that they had not experienced any battle. Looking at these supplies, she was more certain of her thoughts.

Pei Guang and his group took the risk to break down, and there were iron guards above to cooperate. And this girl might have just happened to run into this incident and was caught by them together?

It's possible...

But... Natasha would not publicize such things, and even Oleg, who was standing by, sorted out the things that Pei Guang didn't want at this moment with an expression of knowing nothing.

One of the leaders of the underground fire in public, and one of the leaders behind the scenes, they can be said to be real people, and naturally know what to do. But no matter what, the two of them silently determined an idea, as long as Pei Guang and his group did not cause trouble underground. If someone from above was to be sent, they would be clueless.

Natasha and Oleg smiled at each other. The two had cooperated for so many years, so they naturally knew each other's thoughts.

On the other side, Bronya woke up again on the ground. She saw a gentle big sister again. This big sister was so gentle and so dazzling. And in her ears, a gentle voice full of care rang.

"Come on! It's time to drink coffee."

Chapter 48 Look! This is Hei Dashuai

Because of the help of reliable people, Pei Guang's classification progress was very fast. He kept three food boxes, a drink box and a clothing box for himself, and he was going to give away the others.

Because he didn't have enough boxes here, there were originally ten trash cans, one for Xing Ji's four for various materials and props, and the remaining five for these basic supplies.

Now, except for the task props in the backpack, Pei Guang's storage space was instantly emptied. With more than 80 vacancies, Pei Guang felt that it was easy to explore the new map.

Looking at the rest of the food, drinks and props, Pei Guang looked at Natasha and Oleg: "We don't need these things. If you want them, take them. If not, I'll throw them away."

These supplies are not many, but the problem is that these supplies are all high in sugar. There are also a lot of medical supplies, various anti-inflammatory drugs, alcohol, iodine and some unfamiliar medical tools. These are all picked up by Pei Guang when he was exploring the space station. This time, he cleaned them up and determined that they were useless, so he prepared to give them away or throw them away.

These are the supplies that Natasha is in short supply. She can only ask Sangbo to get some every time. She didn't expect Pei Guang to have so many, and they are all "unwanted".

Watching Natasha sorting out the supplies, bored Pei Guang got out paper and pen and started sitting on the ground to gesture.

Sanyueqi came over and asked curiously: "Aren't we going now?"

Pei Guang: "Where are we going? We have found the NPC to meet us, so of course we will go with her."

Xing instantly thought of Pei Guang's words in the afternoon: "Is this what they call an NPC will appear to lead the way when the map is changed? I see, so that means that when we entered the city, the Jeppard was our NPC who led the way?"

Pei Guang denied: "Impossible, based on my experience, the guide is definitely a hidden boss, it is impossible for him to be the kind of person who looks very upright and normal at first glance. But it's normal that he doesn't have it, maybe there are some anti-routines here?"

Sanyueqi was curious: "Is there so much to say?"

Pei Guang nodded: "That's natural, no matter how things change, they still remain essentially the same. This experience cannot be said to be 100% successful, but based on my many years of gaming experience, there is still 70 to 80% success, but you can't be stubborn, you have to learn to adapt! Hey! Done!"

While chatting with Pei Guang, he drew a picture. Because there was no colored pencil, Pei Guang could only draw simple lines this time, but with Pei Guang's description, everyone could imagine what the complete form would look like at the first time when they saw this picture.

There was an egg on the picture, with a bright smile on the egg, and the two buck teeth in the middle of the smile were clearly visible. The eyes were two crescents, and with two crescent-like eyebrows, the picture looked more interesting.

"Yes! This is the black handsome I just mentioned. The body is purple with white, a bit like a purple star core, with a little starlight flashing on it. Looks interesting, right? It's actually a preserved egg. Ahem! Preserved eggs are a kind of food in my hometown, you can think of it as a black egg."

Although Pei Guang's painting ability is not strong, it is not difficult to draw a black handsome. Look, Sanyueqi, Xing and Danheng all looked at Pei Guang's painting.

This is a very ordinary simple drawing. You can see that it is an egg, and you can also see the smile on it. Simple lines and a cynical smile make people smile when they see it, especially this little expression that seems to be mocking. People who see it will think of the word "you are so mean."

March Seven: "Pfft! It seems... quite interesting."

Xing nodded: "Yes, is there such a thing in this world?"

Pei Guang: "Who knows? Who knows if a god in the game background setting will look like this?"

March Seven: "But your drawing is too abstract compared to what you said."

Pei Guang looked at it carefully: "It's okay? The universe is so big, who knows if there is something that looks so abstract. It's not a big problem. Let's take a photo when we meet in the future."

However, at this time, March Seven had already raised the camera: "Hehe~ Anyway, we are free, let's take a group photo?"

Pei Guang: "Okay!"

So the four people took a group photo on the spot, and March Seven looked at the various photos in the camera and smiled happily. There were photos of Pei Guang and Xing rummaging through the trash can, the moment they hid in the cabinet, and the moment they entered the trash can together. In addition to these funny pictures, there are many warm photos and group photos. Looking at these, she smiled brightly.

While they were playing, Natasha also summarized the supplies and asked Oleg to gather people to bring them back. She came to Pei Guang and his group and said, "Hello, I am Natasha, from the lower level of Beloberg..."

Before she finished her words, Pei Guang, who heard the key words, took out a letter from his backpack: "Are you Natasha?"

"Ah? Um... Yes, I am Natasha, what can I do for you?"

Natasha had a bad premonition, after all, the way Pei Guang and his group came down was really special. Look at Sambo, he could only sneak across, and then look at Pei Guang and his group, who came down on the train openly and didn't even experience a battle. From this, you can guess what's going on.

Even if you can't guess the details, the general experience is indeed similar to what Pei Guang and his group experienced.

Pei Guang handed the letter to Natasha and took out five large medicine boxes from his backpack: "If you were Natasha, these would be given to you by your family. Now that the mission is completed, please give me your reward."

"Ah? Reward... Mission? Wait? This is..."

Natasha opened the envelope and took out the letter. With the help of the platform light, she looked at the contents of the letter. As she looked, her eyes became moist. After taking a few deep breaths, she carefully put the letter away.

She could distinguish the priorities. The letter already knew the situation of her adoptive parents, the health of the old housekeeper, and her brother...

These were very important, very important to her. When she saw the description of Pei Guang and his group at the end of the letter, she could also be sure of one thing, that what Pei Guang was going to do was more important than she thought.

Because there was a sentence at the end of the letter: "If the letter is delivered to you, you must thank them well. They took great risks to help us and sent down our thoughts for you."

The letter did not describe the supplies. In the eyes of the old man, supplies were not important. What was important was that Natasha could receive the letter.

Natasha clenched her fists as she looked at the contents of the letter. Now was not the time to be sad, so she carefully put the letter away: "Sir, thank you for sending so many important things to me, and please follow me to my clinic..."

For Natasha, today is a day worth celebrating, and for all those who have studied the Star God in this universe, today is also a day worth celebrating, because someone has observed the true appearance of the Void Star God, but just looking at this appearance, the observer fell into doubt. He didn't know if there was something wrong with his equipment, or if this Star God was really like this.

Looking at the laughing purple preserved egg, he always felt that there seemed to be something wrong with his observation?

Chapter 49 Iron Guard: "The assassin looks like the wanted poster!"

Underground, Natasha led Pei Guang and his party to the clinic, while on the ground, in Kriber Castle, Cocolia was already furious after listening to Pera's report.

"According to the Iron Guards' report, these assassins kidnapped Commander Bronya in the early morning and knocked out the Iron Guards and stole the train to escape to the lower city. Should we send someone..."

Cocolia: "No, we have to focus all our energy on it. Let the injured Iron Guards have a good rest, and give some material compensation to the looted families. You can leave."

Pera: "Yes!"

Pera left, and when she left, Cocolia sat on the chair.

"My daughter..."

Pera agreed, but in fact she had been observing Cocolia's expression.

As an intelligence officer, Pera's IQ is considered top-notch in this city. The Iron Guards and the masses are very strange when reporting information.

Iron Guard: "I found something unusual when I was on duty. That group of assassins attacked here. Appearance? I don't know? Oh! I remember his expression. He always had a smile on his face, as if he was laughing at me. Yes! Just like the wanted poster."

An Iron Guard captain: "Yes, I found one of them, but he is very cunning. Appearance? Exactly the same as the one drawn by Chief Jeppard, but the hair is blue, and the rest is the same as the wanted poster."

A dizzy Iron Guard: "I... don't know. I was on duty and felt someone approaching, and then I fainted. By the way, before I fainted, I seemed to hear the senior fighting. Woo woo woo, where is the senior? Is the senior..."

An Iron Guard senior: "Yes! Exactly the same as the person on the wanted poster, very evil, with a strange darkness in his eyes. I'm sorry, sir, I failed to complete the task, please punish me."

The Iron Guard senior heard the captain say that the assassin's hair color was blue, so he said it. The Iron Guards described Pei Guang and his group in the opposite state. Anyway, the wanted poster was quite abstract, so they just described it in an abstract way.

In addition, some families were robbed by assassins.

A middle-aged man: "Yes! They are very hateful. They took away all the food stored in my house as soon as they entered my house. My rice and flour are all gone. Sir, I am starving to death."

An elderly woman: "I didn't expect that our family would suffer such a disaster. Appearance? Male, I can't remember the hair color, but he was wearing very strange clothes, yes! His eyes were full of playfulness, and his cunning eyes were like the worst bandit. Is his hair color blue? Eh? It seems so."

An old housekeeper: "Yes, it is exactly the same as the wanted order issued by Chief Jeppard. The sinister and cunning expression was reproduced very perfectly. Well! All the medicines in my house were robbed. Some are about to expire, and some are just bought in these days. Alas, repurchasing is another large amount. Please be flexible in terms of procedures."

A young man: "What do you Iron Guards do? My house was robbed! It was robbed, and the medicines, food, and clothes were all gone!"

These evidences look normal, but Pera felt a strong sense of disobedience. The stolen items were varied, including food, clothing, housing, and transportation. Even a lady's doll was stolen. Compared with the Iron Guards, these people are very good at acting.

The Iron Guards on duty at the time looked listless, but their voices were full of energy and obviously something was wrong. So they found the best doctor to check them, and the doctor had the same attitude.

Don't ask, if you ask, it's a concussion, if you ask, it's an internal injury. When I asked him in detail, he said he had a headache. When someone was sent to check, the doctor who checked clearly stated: "Well, the brain was attacked, thinking will cause headaches, let them rest."

When investigating their identity background, Pera found a clue. That is, these people either came from the lower city, or they had relatives and friends in the lower area when it was blocked.

A large number of them had jointly applied to Cocolia to restore a certain degree of correspondence, and combined with some of the requests made by Bronya and Cocolia these days, they were also related to the lower city.

Pera suddenly had a terrifying idea: "Could it be... that they sent people to the lower city in the name of assassins? Miss Bronya was not kidnapped, but... took the initiative to go there? But it's not right, very wrong, why did the Great Guardian prohibit even the most basic correspondence? Even if you want to concentrate your strength... you shouldn't completely prohibit correspondence, right?"

No one has ever doubted the decision of the Great Guardian. Because the Great Guardian has guarded this city for seven hundred years, generation after generation. They are willing to trust the Great Guardian, not to mention that there is no one else to trust except the Great Guardian.

In the absence of any variables, even if Cocolia issues some strange orders, no one will doubt it.

In addition, there is a lot of work, so many people have no time to think about some things, and even if they think about it, they don't have the energy to explore more deeply. Because everyone is working hard to stay alive, how can they have time to pay attention to these?

But because the Great Guardian was assassinated, Pera got time to rest when looking for the assassin, and also had more time to collect more evidence, collect and summarize various evidence, and then analyze it in combination with the behavior, purpose, and attitude of different people.

Finally, after some wild guesses, Pera came up with a terrifying and impossible scenario.

"No, I need to put myself in the perspective of the Great Guardian. Based on the existing intelligence and the changes in the rift, combined with the data of more than ten years, let me try to put myself in the perspective of the Great Guardian..."

Pella rejected her own guess, but she decided to put herself in the perspective of the Great Guardian to simulate how the Great Guardian guessed. But in the next moment, she felt fear, boundless fear.

The rift was expanding, and the world was on the verge of destruction. What should I do at this time? Resist or give up? If it is resistance, the best choice is to unite the upper and lower levels and resist together. Even if it is destroyed in the end, Pella believes that she will choose to fight and die in order to survive.

But if you think from another angle, think from the perspective of giving up?

"Ugh!!!"

At this moment, Pella only felt retching. Her brain was running at high speed, cooperating with all the policies issued by Cocolia after taking office, combined with the idea of ​​giving up resistance, she got a result that was more terrible than what she had just guessed.

The world has never lacked smart people, but when smart people are busy surviving or unwilling to think about a certain idea, they naturally don't think of some things. But when smart people completely let go of their thoughts, combined with existing evidence and events, there will always be someone who can guess something.

Pera's body was trembling, she didn't know who to tell her guess to. If she didn't tell anyone, she would only feel the endless darkness eroding her.

Chapter 50 Xi'er: "Nothing is wrong"

Is she afraid of death? Yes. Who is not afraid of death? But if she was asked to choose the way to die, she wanted to sacrifice her last drop of blood to protect Beloberg. Although her body was weak, she used her brain to help the Iron Guards fight, protect the city, and protect the people.

If the guess is false, everyone is happy. Maybe the Great Guardian is leading humans to make the last resistance. The Great Guardian is awesome. I want to shed my last drop of blood with the Great Guardian.

But what if it is true? She dared not think about it or believe it, but as a "wise man", she thought she should be wary of such things.

"But who should I find?"

She was thinking, but soon thought of a very suitable candidate, Xiluwa. This is one of the few people she can trust and who may know the truth about Cocolia, because the others either died in battle or died of illness, and only Xiluwa is alive.

What? Jeppard? He can't do that. If someone with his brain guesses these, I'm afraid the city will really be destroyed.

So Pera found Xiluwa, one of the two people in the upper city who knew the identity and purpose of Pei Guang and his group in the middle of the night.

What? Who is the other person? Cocolia! She herself is the biggest troublemaker, who can find her?

Pera would go to Xiluwa's mechanical house when she has nothing to do, so her coming here will not make people feel abnormal.

In the mechanical house, Xiluwa was ready to go out to do what she could after resting for a night. But before she went out, she saw Pera walking in with a haggard face.

"Pera? What's wrong with you?"

Pera looked around and asked directly after making sure that there was no one: "Do you know some truth? Please tell me! Tell me my guess is wrong."

Looking at Pera's expression, Xiluwa was silent. With such a big incident in the city, it is normal for some smart people to guess some ideas based on what happened. She was wondering whether to tell the truth. Looking at Pera's expression and combining her understanding of her, Xiluwa decided to tell the truth.

After hesitating for a long time, Xiluwa spoke.

"Pera, I will tell you what I know, but it is not true, and I dare not guarantee it. I just want to try and see if this city can live for another 700 years."

Xiluwa told what she knew, and at this moment, Pera's expression relaxed.

"Hey, seeing you like this, I thought you would collapse?"

Pera shook her head: "For me, the most uncomfortable thing is the unknown. If I am still afraid after knowing these things, it will only make me perish in fear."
