Starry Sky Railway: Starting with a furious outburst at Aha

Chapter 31 New Ranged Weapons

The Grizzly mechs drew closer and closer.

"Hahaha," Sambo suddenly burst out laughing at this critical moment, "I thought I could fool it."

"Huh? Are you testing its memory bank?" March 7th said, somewhat annoyed. "We really thought you knew it!"

"Hey everyone, now's not the time to think about these things. Let's deal with what's in front of us first," Sangbo said with a wry smile.

"That guy doesn't recognize anyone but Clara."

Everyone stood ready for battle, and Dan Heng also gripped the Cloud-Striking Spear in his hand.

Just then, Xing suddenly raised his top hat high and shouted, "I have a protective talisman, who dares to touch me!"

March 7th, who was standing to the side, was dumbfounded and quickly tugged at Xing's clothes: "What are you doing? Hurry up and grab the baseball bat!"

"Zhou Yuan was obviously joking!!"

However, to everyone's surprise, the grizzly bear mechs all stopped when they saw the top hat.

"Beep... Critical item detected, extremely high danger level. Response strategy: Wait in place."

The grizzly bear mechs changed their tactics, surrounding the group but not attacking, seemingly only trying to trap them.

"Hey! What are you doing? If you're going to fight, then fight. What's the meaning of this?" Seele asked, puzzled, as she banged her scythe on the ground.

The Grizzly mechs did not respond.

They didn't attack, and Oleg didn't want to break ties with Schwarz, so he had no choice but to stop Seele, who was eager to try.

The group remained locked in a stalemate with the Grizzly Mech.

Sambo walked over to Xing and examined the black top hat closely, but couldn't figure out what it was: "Isn't this just an ordinary top hat?"

“Yes, could it be because of Zhou Yuan?” March 7 was also quite puzzled. She was the one who gave the hat to Zhou Yuan, and she knew better than anyone that the hat was made of very ordinary material.

“Zhou Yuan is quite strong, and he may have met with Schwarzro before,” Dan Heng speculated. “Swarzro doesn’t want to provoke him, so these robots don’t dare to make a move.”

“This doesn’t make sense,” Xing buried his head in his hat, unable to see anything. “According to you, they should have left. What does it mean that they’re neither leaving nor making a move?”

"Could it be that there's something hidden in this top hat that we can't see, but the robots can detect?"

"Once they attack us, a sword aura will shoot out from them and pierce through them?!"

After discussing it for a while without any results, they contacted Zhou Yuan.

Upon receiving the message, Zhou Yuan put the Fool's Mask back on and quickened his pace.

When Zhou Yuan arrived, Xing and San Yueqi Sangbo were playing cards.

"...What are you guys doing?" Zhou Yuan glanced at the Grizzly Bear mechs waiting around and asked speechlessly.

They were rushing me so urgently, I thought something had happened...

“You’ve finally arrived,” Xing said as she saw Zhou Yuan, tossing her bad cards back into the deck. “They won’t let us leave.”

Zhou Yuan walked up to a Grizzly mech. This time, before he could even speak, the Grizzly mech made a sound.

"Beep...Face has been entered, transferring..."

Schwarz's voice quickly came through: "Zhou Yuan, you've arrived."

"Hey, I'm here again." Zhou Yuan suddenly felt a little embarrassed. After making a non-aggression pact with Schwarz, Schwarz hadn't done much, but he had troubled Schwarz many times.

What is your relationship with these people?

“They are my companions,” Zhou Yuan replied.

“So…” Schwarzlo thought, “Please change your companion’s mind. According to my calculations, staying in the lower zone is more conducive to survival.”

Hearing this, Zhou Yuan was deeply moved. Although Schwarzkopf acted domineeringly, it had indeed followed its initial orders and protected the lower classes, but...

"How could the calculations not be wrong?" Zhou Yuan said calmly. "Could you have predicted my appearance? Could you have predicted the appearance of my companions?"

"Furthermore, when external factors are involved, your calculations become inaccurate. How can you then be sure that your actions are helping the lower classes survive, or preventing them from moving towards a better future?"

Schwarzlo paused for a moment, then replied, "I will start the calculations again."

Zhou Yuan shook his head helplessly and charged into the encirclement of the Grizzly Bear mechs:

"There are some things I can't say right now. My companions will come to see you tomorrow. Although it might break my promise, I'm sorry, I have to leave with them now."

"You can go now," Schwarz said, and the Grizzly mechs immediately parted to make way for everyone, allowing them to leave.

Halfway there, Oleg said to Seele:

"Seele, am I dreaming? Schwarz is negotiating with that young man? And he let us go?"

As the nominal leader of the Earthfire, he repeatedly attempted to negotiate with Schwarzro after conflicts broke out between the two sides, but each time the negotiations ended before they even began.

From this, he came to a conclusion: Schwarzlo disdained communicating with anyone! Except for Clara, whom it considered family, it wouldn't listen to anyone else!

But now, the ironclad rule has been broken. Not only can Schwarzlo communicate normally with Zhou Yuan, but he has even agreed to Zhou Yuan's requests.

It's safe to say that no one understands the true value of this better than Oleg.

Seele looked around and handed over the scythe: "See for yourself if it hurts?"

"..."

The group hurried back to Rocky Town. Oleg, with a smile on his face, said to the pioneering team:

"It's getting late. How about we discuss this again tomorrow? I'll arrange accommodations for you all first. How about the Goethe Hotel?"

"Then I'll have to trouble you," Dan Heng nodded.

Before following Oleg to the hotel, Zhou Yuan approached Sambo.

"Oh, my good friend, what's the matter?" Sambo smiled, bowed, and rubbed his hands together. "Sambo is happy to help you."

"I need a deck of cards."

"Friend, do you want to play cards? Here you go," Sambo said, taking the playing cards out of his pocket.

Zhou Yuan shook his head: "I want it to be made of pure steel, preferably with polished edges."

Zhou Yuan had this idea as soon as he saw Xing and the others playing cards.

Since his sharp suit wasn't suitable for close-quarters combat, he naturally had to choose an attack method that suited his temperament.

Moreover, Zhou Yuan's emotional light cone is also shaped like a card, so it might create a wonderful synergy with it.

“The cards need to be this size,” Zhou Yuan gestured, “and the colors need to be solid colors, two of each color.”

"Here's 200,000 credits for you."

"Hey, why would I ask you for money? Good friend." Sambo smiled and nodded to accept it. "I'll go find some for you right away."

After saying that, he set off in a flurry of activity.

Zhou Yuan followed the group to the Goethe Hotel, found a room to stay in, and finally lay down on the bed.

"I'm so tired," Zhou Yuan couldn't help but sigh.

Have you been too busy on this trip?

They haven't stopped since they arrived. What's going on? They haven't even finished one of the space station side stories yet, while they've already completed half of the main Beloberg storyline. Don't they even have a moment to relax?

Just then, Xing suddenly burst in.

Zhou Yuan had already taken off his suit jacket, making no attempt to appear elegant, and calmly raised his head from the bed.

What are you doing here? Aren't you going to sleep?

"I can't sleep, so I'm just taking a walk." Xing's eyes were bright.

“As expected of Star Core Driven,” Zhou Yuan praised. “It’s perfect that you’re here. Tomorrow you can go find Schwarz and talk to it about Star Cores. I think it should know something about them.”

"Remember to turn off the lights for me when we go out later."

After saying that, Zhou Yuan lay back down on his pillow and fell asleep.

The next day, Zhou Yuan was woken up by room service. He set off in high spirits and went to Dr. Juejue's door.

Dr. Juejue looked like he had been waiting for a long time; Zhou Yuan deduced from his reddened eyes that he hadn't slept all night.

"Ready? Is this all?" Zhou Yuan looked at it and saw that Dr. Digger was only carrying a backpack that was about the height of a person, which was much smaller than he had imagined.

"Enough! Enough!" Dr. Digger replied excitedly, "Half of it is energy drinks, I'm afraid I'll fall asleep."

Seeing his posture as if he were about to fight the creation engine to the death, Zhou Yuan sighed.

"Bring plenty of warm clothes, and then we'll set off."
