Chapter 364

~5 min read 995 words

Hearing this, Bronya's shoulders tremble slightly.

Silence for a long time.

Only then does she whisper a thank you.

She knows very well that Lu Shu is just comforting her.

At age 7, she was chosen by Cocolia and raised as a 'Supreme Guardian candidate'.

Ten years ago, she officially joined the Silvermane Guards, taught personally by Gepard Landau.

In the same year, she tried to stop Cocolia from blocking the lower district to no avail, and every year since then, her proposals to unblock it have been to no avail.

……

Actually, Lu Shu is not entirely comforting Duck.

Blocking the lower district was ten years ago.

The reason given to Bronya was that the upper district was under high pressure and needed the lower district guards to go up.

The reason given to the outside world was that they wanted to launch a counter-attack against the Stellaron and block it after transferring the underground troops.

At that time, the troop deployment was probably to open a path and truly contact the Stellaron.

The timing corresponds to Serval being expelled.

As for whether it was 'conversation' or 'attack', it is unknown.

As for the 'master of micromanagement' sending troops to their deaths later, it should be something from recent years.

The report was written when Pela had already taken her current position.

By this time, Cocolia had already fallen to the Stellaron and only wanted to accelerate the rift invasion!

Therefore, six years ago, the "Head-Sending Plan" should not have been implemented yet.

……

Don't know how long it took, Cocolia finally recovered her sanity from extreme grief and collapse.

Or maybe she cried her tears dry.

Sitting blankly on the ground.

It took a while before she climbed up from the ground and sat back in the chair.

Glancing at her daughter lying in Lu Shu's arms.

"Sorry!"

"You shouldn't be apologizing to me!!"

Big Duck scolds angrily.

"I will give everyone an explanation, but before that, I want to know how Mr. Lv is going to save Belobog."

Cocolia's eyes burn.

For hundreds of years, the people of Belobog have had no way to deal with the expansion of the cold wave.

Simply put, everyone is waiting to die together.

For her, the 'Stellaron' might be deceiving her, but maintaining the status quo will definitely lead to death, so it's better to just gamble.

It seems this is another 'choice of two'.

If he can't give her a reassuring answer, I'm afraid she will transform into an SP form and become 'Stellaron Cocolia' when she goes back.

"In the seven hundred years after the Architect Era, the people of Jarilo united under the banner of 【Preservation】, huddled in this small snail shell of Belobog, just to survive in the increasingly severe cold wave."

"Here, nothing is more important than survival."

"But for the people here, the world inside the city walls is their entire world."

"Like the frog in the well in the ancient fable."

"Does Ms. Cocolia know about the 'Star Rail'?"

Lu Shu says.

"What is that?"

Cocolia shakes her head blankly.

Sure enough.

Judging from Bronya and Svarog's understanding of the universe, Cocolia probably doesn't know about the existence of the Star Rail either.

Perhaps she only knows that with the arrival of the Stellaron, the 'aliens' left.

Hmm?

Maybe she doesn't even know that.

After all, too much has been submerged by the cold wave in 700 years, and the former history has also been sealed in the snow-covered snowfields.

"The 'Interastral Peace Corporation', as an existence that practices the will of Preservation of the 'King Qliphoth'."

"The 'Humanoid Form of Entangled Fate', 'Iron Rod Gray Peony', 'Cold-Faced Little Green Worm' mentioned just now are Nameless who practice the will of 'Trailblaze'."

"They ride the Astral Express, constantly trailblazing between the stars, with the goal of eradicating the 'Stellaron' on every planet."

Cocolia and Bronya raise their eyebrows.

You damn liar, you said you didn't know them.

Big liar!

"And now, the Astral Express is parked in the starry sky outside Jarilo."

"However, because of the existence of the 'Stellaron', the 'Star Rail' is affected, and the train enters an indefinite suspension state until the Stellaron danger is lifted."

"And as long as the 'Stellaron' is destroyed, the Star Rail will be connected; do you know what this means?"

Lu Shu doesn't care about the two women's gazes.

Hmph!

You just asked, did they come together?

They really didn't 'come together'.

"What does it mean?"

Cocolia's breathing quickens.

She always thought Belobog was an independent individual, but now it seems not?

Introducing external forces might also be a way to save Belobog.

"Normal Star Rail means Jarilo-VI is lit up again by the 'Interastral Peace Corporation'."

"In 700 years, the IPC didn't appear because the Star Rail was faulty, and they thought you had been destroyed."

"And now, as long as the Stellaron is eradicated and the Star Rail is connected, the Interastral Peace Corporation will arrive."

Lu Shu says.

"Arrive…… what will happen?"

"The IPC sounds like a righteous organization."

Bronya's breathing quickens.

Cocolia also frowns; she has always calculated Jarilo-VI as a closed and isolated system.

And now, Lu Shu tells her that as long as the Stellaron is eradicated, the 'IPC' will arrive?

Then, ……

"IPC? Hehe, guess what happened to those planets that didn't want peace and didn't follow their philosophy?"

Lu Shu curls his lips and laughs sinisterly.

"Uh……"

Bronya feels a chill for no reason!

Cocolia also frowns; people have two sides, the IPC may not be peaceful.

"But don't worry, Jarilo-VI itself is a follower of 'Preservation', and the philosophy is the same."

Lu Shu comforts.

"So, will the IPC help reshape Jarilo's ecology?"

Bronya becomes excited, her breathing burning.

Only Cocolia shakes her head; it's not that simple.

Otherwise, what is Lu Shu here for?

Listening to this, Lu Shu is not from that 'Interastral Peace Corporation'.

"Yes, they will!"

"Yeah!!"
