Anyway, Clara's clothes and the mobile phone she gave him are now in his storage magic weapon, so he is not worried that Swarovski will not be able to find him when the time comes. "..." The gathering place of the gold diggers was not particularly large. After Si Luo walked at a normal speed for more than ten minutes, he had already left the camp. Although there was no sign of anything wrong with him from the outside, Clara's physical strength was still being infinitely strengthened inside her robe. Fortunately, the crystals given by Si Luo could be transformed into energy without any side effects and integrated into the girls' bodies with his permission, healing their physical strength and enhancing their strength. Otherwise, with his unrestrained amount, Clara's body would probably not be able to bear it. At this time, it had been only about four hours since they left Panyan Town, so Si Luo was not particularly anxious. He just walked leisurely along the road, jogging from time to time or jumping a few times on the uneven road surface. In just half an hour, Clara's strength had increased by at least several times, and she was still constantly digesting the increasing sword marrow energy. Chapter 52: Ribbons and Music Boxes Because of Clara's company, Si Luo felt very comfortable on the way back and even began to pay attention to the situation around him. Because the lower area is sparsely populated, the number of rifts here is much less than that of the upper area, but correspondingly, there are no walls forged with the lives of the Silver Mane Iron Guards, so the degree of erosion is not necessarily much slower. In addition to a mining area between the mechanical settlement where Clara lives and Rock Town, there is actually another small town - but unlike Rock Town, this town has long been destroyed by the erosion of the Rift. Apart from the Rift creations that may appear at any time, there are only the [Echoes of the Rift] left by the people who lived before, repeating their tragic experiences day after day. This is the new world that Cocolia pursues, where everyone will be reborn under the influence of the rift - but what she doesn't know is that weak individual lives are not even qualified to be transformed into monsters.
"Clara came here when she was very young... there were many people here at that time..." Since there were no outsiders around at the moment, Clara poked her little head out from her robe. "Don't worry, everyone will be able to return to the upper area soon." Si Luo touched her head, then suddenly realized something and decisively pushed the little loli back. Fortunately, Clara's fate is destruction. The lower her health is, the stronger her recovery ability is. Otherwise, with her scabbard, which was originally small, being tossed around by Si Luo like this, it would have been completely broken long ago. Instead of being like this, she can not only practice sword skills with him all the time, but also absorb the sword essence he bestows on her all the time, constantly strengthening her own strength. Well, Clara and he are really a match made in heaven. "Hmm...what is this?" Soon, as Si Luo turned a corner, a strange black and white creature that looked like a pig came into view. In order to prevent any blind monsters from disturbing his and Clara's good time, Si Luo had actually been distracted by cleaning up the rift creatures approaching him. However, because the aura of this creature was a little different, he did not take action to deal with it immediately. "..." The pig seemed very alert. Although Si Luo's footsteps were light, it turned around and looked at him at the first moment. Then, under Si Luo's somewhat confused gaze, the little pig ran over and arched its back on his legs. At the same time, a dirty ribbon with a bell fell from its body. Obviously, Silona's cross-species charm came into play again. However, Clara was still in his arms at this time, and it was not convenient for him to squat down in this position, so he could only bend down slightly, reach out his hand and pick up the ribbon on the side of the pig. When the creature saw that Si Luo accepted its gift, it jumped happily, rubbed his legs, jumped up like a fox, and dived into the ground, disappearing in an instant. Unexpectedly, even a small creature he met on the road had this ability. After a little sigh, Si Luo quickly turned his attention back to Clara. While continuing to stroll and enjoy the cute little loli, he changed his direction with the ribbon in his hand and walked towards the other side of the town. He just confirmed the cause and effect of this ribbon. Although it has nothing to do with him, since the distance is very close, he naturally doesn't mind doing a good deed. Of course, the most important thing is to have Clara accompany me. A few minutes later, as Si Luo stopped in front of a dilapidated house, a soft sobbing sound suddenly came from behind a candle-lit window, adding a weird atmosphere to the dead silent street.
At least Si Luo could conclude that Clara must have been frightened. After all, the girl's instinctive tenseness just now gave him an extremely obvious intuitive feeling. However, judging from the energy today, once Clara completely absorbs and masters it, it will probably be her turn to protect Swarovski. "Little sister, what's wrong?" Si Luo didn't feel anything. He continued to output energy while knocking on the window. The sound in the house suddenly stopped, and soon a weak voice was heard accompanied by the flickering candlelight. "Sister...sister said she was going to buy some food, but she never came back...did she abandon me..." The childish voice was probably not even older than Clara's. Si Luo ignored the window and looked at the blue-haired loli sitting by the window in the room. He was silent for a while, then passed the ribbon in his hand through the gap in the window. "Look at this, isn't it your sister's?" "..." There was silence in the room again. The loli stared at the ribbon blankly, as if she had thought of something. The girl placed a music box by the window, then covered her face with her hands and began to sob again. Her already illusory body gradually disappeared, leaving only the sobbing sound lingering in the alley for a long time. "Big brother…" Si Luo's robe only isolated the outside world from the inside, so Clara could also hear the sounds outside. As he moved again, the girl couldn't help but stick her head out again. "They are..." "For those who cannot be transformed into Rift Creatures, the spirits of the past within the Rift Echo will only freeze time at a certain moment forever, repeating the same thing day after day." Si Luo chuckled in response, seemingly unaffected by the obviously tragic story. “How pitiful…” "Ah." Si Luo just stroked the girl's head without saying much, and Clara enjoyed the head pat for a while, then retreated into her robe to enjoy it again. But unfortunately, Si Luo has never liked tragedy. He once again returned to the place where he had picked up the ribbon, and on the originally empty street, a panicked blue-haired woman now appeared. "My sister...she ran away from home! I can't find her. Excuse me, have you seen her?!" "She is very weak, she can't walk very far!" "Does this impress you?" Si Luo stopped and handed her the music box in his hand. "This... this is my sister's favorite music box... she..." The woman's expression paused slightly, as if she remembered something, and she lowered her head in confusion. "It seems that you have remembered it. Well, I have a suggestion that can allow you and your sister to meet again." Chapter 53 Double Puff
"But...my sister and I have already..." The woman raised her head slightly, and her gradually illusory figure stopped dissipating, and she looked at Si Luo's handsome face. "None of that matters." Si Luo interrupted her words. His confident yet reassuring smile made the woman, who was only a fragment of herself left, slightly dazed. "I am a lazy person, so I want a few maids to help me clean my room and take care of my daily life~" Although the woman in front of him could not be compared with beauties like Heita and the others, she was also a great beauty who far exceeded the passing line. Moreover, under Si Luo's prying eyes, he could confirm that she had not yet had any contact with the opposite sex. What's more, she had an equally cute loli sister. With this added point, she had barely reached the standard of Si Luo's maid. "I am willing!" Si Luo's confident smile made the woman make the decision without hesitation. Anyway, she had already died, so she had nothing to lose even if she was cheated. She was willing to give everything as long as she could hold her sister's hand again. "Then the contract is established." The corner of Si Luo's mouth slightly raised, and a wisp of spiritual energy slowly emerged from the sealed divine nature in his body, and finally fell on the music box and the ribbon. The power far exceeded that of the Star God and even fooled time. The soul that had been shattered as life faded away was condensed again, and even restored the human body, regaining life once again. "elder sister?" The sickly little girl stared blankly at the woman in front of her, and the next moment, the two of them hugged each other tightly. "I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I won't abandon you again!" A woman who lost her parents and had no source of income came to the lower area to participate in mining development in order to treat her congenitally weak sister. However, the harsh environment in the lower area made her sister even weaker. Until one day on the way to the clinic to get medicine, the erosion of the rift spread to the town, and her life was forever stopped on the way home. Si Luo, who was standing by, took the opportunity to take two photos and sent them to Estelle. Since they are maids, they naturally have to learn some relevant knowledge. There are currently no seniors on the Starry Sky Train who can guide them, so Si Luo plans to temporarily hand them over to his lovely girlfriend, and after they have learned from her maid, they will come to the train to serve as maids. Clara, who was strung in the air by the companion sword, suddenly twisted her slender waist gently as if to reward him, and her two small hands actively stretched down and pinched the round pendant on the hilt. Outside, the woman and her sister expressed endless gratitude to him. Si Luo, who had already received the reward from Clara, comforted them for a while. Then, after a brief reminder, the woman agreed to his proposal without hesitation and was transferred directly to the Black Tower Space Station. Together with her sister, she served as Esta's temporary maid. "Big brother is awesome..." Clara had just recovered from her trance at this time, and poked her head out with a double entendre. "Isn't it amazing? Does Clara like me more now?" "Well...Clara likes big brother more now!" Although Si Luo acted very casually, Clara, who listened to the whole thing, knew very well how great a thing he had done. Moreover, the tenderness he showed towards the two sisters made her even more obsessed with them. "Well, about that incident before..." An expectant look suddenly appeared on Si Luo's face. "Well…"
Clara was stunned for a moment, then she reacted and her cheeks instantly blushed. Before in the room, Si Luo had tried to check scabbard No. 2. After all, although scabbard No. 1 had completely become his shape, he actually still accommodated Clara and shortened the blade a bit to fit the scabbard. But scabbard No. 2 is different. Its capacity is much larger than that of No. 1, and it may even be able to completely accommodate the sword. Moreover, for Clara, whose fate was destroyed, this level of injury was not a big deal, and she could absorb the energy of the sword marrow to heal her body at any time. It’s a pity that Clara was too shy about this. Si Luo just took a peek before and didn’t even have the time to enjoy it before he was driven out by the girl's coquettish behavior. "How about it, Clara, you see how hard I worked just now, aren't you going to give big brother a reward~" Hard work meant that he carried Clara for ten minutes and contributed a lot of pure energy. "Um... Clara knows..." "Anyway... Clara is also my big brother's lover..." Clara's character was destined to be controlled by Si Luo. No matter whether the approach was soft or hard, she would find it difficult to refuse. She could only lower her head obediently and give a weak affirmative response. "Yes, we are lovers who will never be separated~" Having obtained permission, Si Luo showed an excited look. He slightly loosened the invisible ropes on Clara's body, then put his hands back into his robe, hugged the petite loli and began to teach her a new style of sword moves. "..." The sword that had been stained with the blood of countless gods, demons, and even evil gods finally returned to its original state, while Clara in his arms bit her lips hard, trying to suppress all sounds. Fortunately, the recovery power of Destruction Fate and its pure energy quickly healed her body, so she soon adapted completely. It has to be said that with Clara's petite body, if it were an ordinary person, no one would be able to survive Si Luo's sword. Only a girl with amazing recovery ability could heal in time after suffering trauma until she is fully adapted. ... Si Luo walked more happily on the rest of the journey. Both mentally and physically, he was in an extremely high state at all times, which brought him an extremely pleasant experience. More than an hour later, Si Luo finally returned slowly to Panyan Town. Looking at the town streets which had not changed much from before he left, he slightly quickened his pace and went straight back to the Gothic Hotel. Although the time in the lower area seems extremely chaotic because there is no distinction between day and night, the long period of life has allowed most people to have a fixed biological clock. Compared to the silence before leaving, there are already many miners and businessmen eating and chatting in the lobby of the Gothic Hotel. As for Si Luo's unfamiliar face that was out of place in the lower class, no one paid much attention. After all, they had almost exhausted all their energy just to survive and had no time to think about other things. After looking around the hall, he soon found the small vacuum area in the corner of the second floor. Taking Clara up the stairs, Si Luo noticed the girl's body was tense due to nervousness. The smile on his face became more and more unrestrained. He walked in front of Xier and sat down opposite her. Clara in her robe became noticeably more nervous as he moved, but there was no sign of anything unusual from the outside, and Si Luo also maintained that rather happy smile. "What on earth did you do to find that big robot to help you..." Because the elevator was within the warning range of the Underground Fire Organization, when Swarovski came to repair it, he naturally negotiated with them and passed the news to Xier. The members of the Earth Fire Organization naturally knew something about Swarovski, and had even wanted to establish a good cooperative relationship with him. However, the other party had always refused to negotiate with them. So in addition to knowing that he was very powerful, it was the first time that Xier knew that he could actually repair sophisticated equipment such as the operating table. Of course, what made her most curious was why Swarovski, who had negotiated for many years without receiving a response, would reach a cooperative relationship with Si Luo, a stranger whom she had only met once.
“The process is not important, what is important is the result.” Looking at Xier's face, which looked a little tired because she hadn't rested for a long time, Si Luo responded with a chuckle. "Now you should be able to trust us." "Um…" In any case, since the elevator has been repaired, it means that the people in the lower area have a way to return to the ground, so Si Luo has become the undoubted benefactor of the lower area. So when faced with his inquiries, Xier was a little embarrassed, but she no longer had the previous hostility.
