"So, you want to take me to the upper area?"

Yao Luo sat on the steps in front of the orphanage, and the cold wind blew by, ruffling the hem of his clothes.

A woman named Cocolia was sitting next to her. She gently combed her hair behind her ears and looked at Yao Luo quietly, her tone of voice affirmative and strong.

"Of course. Talents like you shouldn't be buried in the lower area. If I could have known about your existence earlier, I should have tied you to the upper area."

Yao Luo played with the hair on his forehead and said casually: Putting aside whether you have this ability, if we go to the upper area, what will happen to the people in the lower area?

"You don't need to worry about this matter. The people in the lower area are not hamsters, automatic soldiers, and silver-maned iron guards without the ability to stand on their own. No matter how tight the front line is in the upper area, I have no intention of giving up on the lower area." Cocolia sounded confident, as if she had everything under control.

"It's okay to deceive the ordinary people in the lower areas. We are both people who have penetrated into the depths of the rift world," Yao Luo's eyes narrowed.

He didn't like the way she was in control of everything in front of him. She was clearly nervous when she was in the world before, as if she saw some life-saving straw.

"The erosion of the Rift has not relaxed for a moment, and the situation in the Lower City is not as good as you think."

"I know." Cocolia stared at Yaoluo closely, "If you don't go to the upper area, the people in the lower area will never get the salvation they deserve."

"Then why should I go to the upper-class district first? Do the people in the upper-class and lower-class districts differ in your eyes?"

Cocolia's tone paused, "Don't quibble. I've said it before. Without the upper zone, the people in the lower zone would not have the appropriate survival resources, and Beloberg would not be able to live up to its existence."

"Then let me ask you." Yao Luo looked equally serious, "If there is no earth marrow supply in the lower area, who will provide the energy for the weapons, equipment, and heating facilities in the upper area?"

"I... of course I know..." Cocolia gritted her teeth and clenched her fists, "But this will never solve the erosion of the world. That's why I want to ask you to solve this matter. With the ability you have shown before... "

Yao Luo held his forehead and shook his head, "My seal can only be used for temporary emergencies. My power is not eternal. Even if I seal it now, it will inevitably be unsealed at some point in the future."

"Then we can't just let it go!" Cocolia's voice rose, and she slapped her hands hard on the guardrail in front of her, leaving a fingerprint on it, which showed how powerful she was.

"I didn't care!" Yao Luo retorted rudely. He hated such moral kidnapping the most. It was true that he wanted to rescue Belloberg, but under the current situation, he would not let such an unconventional young lady Make irresponsible remarks.

"Let me give you an overview of the situation. First," Yao Luo stretched out a finger.

"What you see is my first attempt to seal the world. It's not that I haven't done it before."

"Second, Belloberg is very big. It used to be just a small town's world-splitting seal. I can't even stop the whole world of Belloberg, let alone this planet! Then, you have to let it go again. Where is it being wantonly encroached upon by the Split World!"

"Third, the rift is a symptom of the disaster on this planet. If we want to truly eliminate the disaster on this planet for thousands of years, we can only..."

Yao Luo stopped talking and saw a familiar figure in his eyes.

"Natasha?"

Cocolia also followed Yaoluo's gaze back and saw a gray-haired woman with a tired look on her face walking softly from the stairs. She seemed to have been listening there for a while.

Cocolia's eyes suddenly became sharp. Yaoluo's ability to seal the world was considered confidential to her. If the woman in front of her found out about it, she would at least sign a confidentiality agreement, not to mention controlling it.

"She is the owner of this orphanage." Yao Luo waved his hand and blocked the woman's eyes.

In his perception, Natasha had indeed just arrived here. In the previous conversation, Yaoluo actually consciously used gravity to restrain the flow of sound to prevent any naughty kid from eavesdropping in the middle of the night. Judging from Natasha's reaction, this was indeed the case. Compared to Yao Luo, the first thing she noticed was the person next to her.

Natasha gathered her mood, walked a few steps quickly, came to the stairs, stretched out her hand to Cocolia, and greeted her in a friendly way: "Hello, the little girl Natasha, as Yaoluo said, does run this orphanage. The home has adopted several homeless children.”

Cocolia first looked at Natasha's body up and down, and then took Natasha's hand slowly.

"Nice to meet you, Ms. Natasha. I have heard about your deeds here, and I also fully approve of your behavior of adopting children. There are not many people like you in the lower class." Cocolia spoke in a kind tone. When it comes to the child, the tone seems to be much softer.

The two shook hands very politely, and separated after a brief contact. Then, the three people's eyes intertwined, and there was some silence in the air.

"I'm going to see the children." Natasha could tell that there were still unfinished words between the two of them, glanced at Yao Luo, and left wisely.

Yaoluo and Cocolia looked at each other. Both of them had unfinished words, but they both felt that the current situation was not suitable for continuing the conversation.

In Cocolia's eyes, the man in front of her is her only hope at the moment, and she will take him to the upper area no matter what.

Yao Luo knew that the woman in front of him was determined to take him to the upper area. However, Yao Luo knew that the most important thing at the moment was to find the star core on the planet. He did not know the location of the star core. The one-star core is buried in a corner of the lower area, and going to the upper area will only delay time.

He must race against time.

The rift he had previously sealed slowed down its threat to Rivet Town to a certain extent.

"If we don't do this, there is no future for this planet."

Yao Luo pondered, if finding the star core quickly is his most important goal at the moment, then his power to search alone is limited.

Although he couldn't guarantee whether the lower area would be eroded by the cracks elsewhere when he left, he could only take a gamble.

I bet that before I completely solve the star core problem, there will be no new boundary erosion in the lower area.

At least, not anytime soon.

Yao Luo felt the gravity suppression maintained in his body. He could at least maintain it for several more times like the previous town's cracked boundary erosion.

Yao Luo looked directly at Cocolia, "I can promise you to go to the upper area, but I have a condition."

Facing the happy-looking Cocolia, Yaoluo looked at the orphanage.
