If the general environment is like this, if everyone likes Hua Yi, and can then do things with a clear conscience, wouldn't it be possible for me to pursue things I've never been involved in before in the future?
It's about conformity; everyone does it this way, so I do it too.
What a great reason...
Chapter 292 Winter City Martial Arts Tournament
Even though Belobog is only a small city, the combined number of the two garrison troops is not to be underestimated, not to mention the many citizens who will come to watch.
With a wave of his hand, Hua Yi chose the Snowfield outside the city as the location for the martial arts demonstration.
The Stellaron has been sealed, and the surrounding Voidranger have been cleared away, allowing the Belobog people to briefly leave the fortified city and see the outside world.
The Automatons cleared the snow and plowed out a road leading to the Martial Arts Arena.
Even though the citizens were bundled up tightly, snowflakes still fell on their faces, making them shiver.
Whenever the cold wind blows, some people can't help but look up and stare at the sky with suspicion.
With such a big sun hanging in the sky, how can the temperature still be this low?
"Achoo!... It's so cold."
"The temperature difference between the snow and the city is probably twenty degrees. Before leaving the city, I thought the official announcement that we should wear at least twice the amount of warm clothing was an exaggeration. Now it seems that the City Builders were indeed very thoughtful."
"I heard this is already an improvement in the weather? The previous Great Cold were much more frightening."
Everything was white as far as the eye could see, and when you spoke in the icy snow, your breath turned into white mist.
Ordinary people don't dare to open their mouths wide, for fear that the cold wind blowing in their face will sneak into their stomachs.
That would be terrible.
Soldiers stood guard at intervals along both sides of the road, their postures upright.
The crowd occasionally glanced at the fully armed warrior, amazed that beneath the heavy armor, his flesh and blood seemed to completely ignore the bitter cold.
"In the past, the Silvermane Guards fought monsters in this kind of environment to protect Belobog?"
"That's amazing."
"I also saw Wildfire. Isn't it supposed to be hot and humid in the Lower District? How come the Wildfire isn't afraid of the cold?"
"Compared to the muggy heat, it's still cold overall. At our worst, didn't Void rifts only appear in the shopping street of the Administrative District? So many people were crying and wailing then. The Fragmentum in the Lower District spread into the town, leaving countless people homeless."
The citizens whispered among themselves, filled with mixed emotions.
The Remembrance of the disaster remain vivid, as if it happened just yesterday.
"Back then, when the Void Erosion was so severe, those who still resolutely chose to become Wildfire and fight monsters were not even afraid of death, so how could they be afraid of the cold?"
"In the past, when there were severe Great Cold and monster attacks, the warriors of Belobog suffered so much to protect us. If they suffer now, wouldn't Lord Hua Yi have saved the world for nothing? No, I need to ask Silvermane Guards and Wildfire if they are cold. If they are, I will take off this coat and put it on them. Anyway, I'm wearing a lot of clothes."
Are you cold?
It's not cold.
The financial pressure on Belobog stems not only from rebuilding Rivet Town and aiding the Lower District, but also largely from subsidies provided to the Silvermane Guards and Wildfire.
There was also fur underneath the heavy armor, which was very warm.
Moreover, the guard duty will not cause you to miss the exciting parts of the martial arts competition. Lord Hua Yi has divided the competition into two groups, men's and women's, at different times. Even after this shift of guard duty is over, you can still see the elites competing.
At the end of the road, inside a large venue, the Silvermane Guards and Wildfire Warriors participating in the martial arts demonstration were radiating Amber brilliance.
"Begin, and with this lance, under the watchful eyes of the Belobog Citizen and the successive Supreme Guardians, demonstrate your Preservation will."
On the high platform, Hua Yi planted the Amber Spear into the ground, its power of Preservation continuously empowering the martial artists.
His voice was gentle, and he did not use a rousing tone to ignite the soldiers' passion.
But the lowered gaze of the King of Belobog, and the ever-flowing Preservation might, were enough to ignite the fighting spirit of the Silvermane Guards and the Wildfire.
The clash of weapons, accompanied by cheers from the audience, sent snowflakes flying from the sky.
The soldiers could wield their guns and axes with all their might, unleashing their full combat power without worrying about injuring their comrades.
The Apostle of the Amber Lord is here, [Preservation] is here!
Victory will not be decided by bloodshed; whoever receives the favor whose Amber brilliance has completely dimmed will be eliminated.
After a battle, both the winner and loser would bow respectfully to the high platform.
The lance passed down through generations of the Supreme Guardian was there, yet it failed to attract attention.
The Savior is more legendary than any legendary weapon.
Even the one who created the miracle, the First Supreme Guardian Alisaland, could not rival the brilliance of King of Belobog.
The Amber light appeared to emanate from the lance, but in everyone's hearts, Hua Yi was the Amber brilliance sun.
After a battle, one group of martial artists stepped down from the stage, and another group came up.
During a break in the martial arts practice, Hua Yi lowered his head and began carving, using a carving knife to sculpt the outline of a lance on the polished Geothermal Ore, which would later serve as a medal for outstanding performers.
Made entirely by hand under the watchful eyes of everyone, it should be quite a memorable keepsake.
When the next round of military exercises begins, we must put down our carving knives and Amber stones and focus on watching the warriors sweat and demonstrate their skills.
As for the power of Preservation empowers the Silvermane Guards and the Wildfire, half of it comes from Alisaland.
She hopes to take care of the current Belobog children.
Hua Yi also took this opportunity to deepen the Traces of Alisa and other Rand, making it easier to rescue them in the future.
"Under the watchful eyes of the successive Supreme Guardians," this phrase can be an encouragement, or it can be a [Mystery] of blurring reality and guiding destiny in the direction one desires.
Be careful.
Bronya, Serval, and the others were supposed to sit quietly on either side of Hua Yi and watch the martial arts demonstration, but they couldn't help but worry whenever their lover was carving medals.
They were worried that Hua Yi might accidentally cut his finger while using the carving knife for too long.
What? Even setting aside the terrifying fact that he imprisoned Phantylia, which the girls didn't know about, a powerful being capable of suppressing Stellaron couldn't possibly be injured by the small carving knife in his hand.
Concern can lead to confusion.
"Yes, yes, I was very careful, I kept my eyes wide open and held it very steadily."
"You've already carved over a dozen medals, isn't that enough, Yu?"
"Let's round it up to a hundred. I'll at least keep myself occupied. Otherwise, what am I supposed to do, eating sunflower seeds in public? It would damage my heroic image in people's eyes."
I don't think it will cause any harm.
Xing, who was also sitting in the audience on the high platform, took out a chocolate from her pocket and fed it to Hua Yi.
In icy and snowy conditions, it's important to replenish energy promptly.
As a result, Himeko down.
"You better behave yourself."
"What's wrong with him being restless? He's hungry!"
There's a kind of hunger that girls think you're hungry for.
Hua Yi couldn't refute it, so he could only find a suitable angle and, while bending down, eat the chocolate that had been passed from Himeko to Himeko, March 7th, and Bronya in turn.
Chapter 293 This is a real vacation
Not only were representatives from Belobog, Astral Express, and Herta Space Station present, but also Topaz, Senior Executive of the company.
He said he wanted to take a few days off here while the debt problem was successfully resolved, but his workaholic nature kicked in, and he was either introducing the data plan service of the Interastral Peace Network to Bronya or recommending mechanical parts combinations to Serval.
Even for this Winter City Martial Arts Tournament, Topaz purchased the broadcasting rights in the name of its Strategic Investment Department.
Whether it's used to introduce Jarilo -VI in the Star River, promote [Preservation], or as a marketing gimmick for the Geothermal Ring, it's all good.
The female cadet from the Space Station was also recording.
They claimed to be documenting Belobog, but Topaz felt that in more than half of their ten shots, Hua Yi was placed in the center of the frame, except when she was being fed chocolate by the girls.
Would it damage the dignity of the Savior?
No, there is no negative impact whatsoever.
Given the love the people of Belobog have for him, at most, after this scene is released, certain brands of chocolate will sell out, and if Hua Yi dares to walk casually on the street again, some love-struck girls will activate their romantic radar and run over to give him chocolates.
Also, should these clips be sent to a group chat?
That Chat Group that Bronya, March 7th and others always mentioned significantly deepened the friendly relationship between Belobog and the Astral Express. Unfortunately, whenever he approached, they would change the subject.
I felt slightly excluded, but not truly isolated.
Topaz also tried to ask Asta, but her best friend dodged the question, clearly trying to cover something up.
Having emerged from a heavily polluted hometown on the verge of environmental collapse, and risen through the ranks as a lifetime contract worker to become Senior Executive in the company, Topaz's abilities are beyond question.
She has now learned about the existence of Hua Yi Fan Club from Xing, Galaxy Bat Hero happens to be an administrator with the authority to invite new members.
So, are you a fan of Hua Yi?
—I really want to recruit him to the Strategic Investment Department!
That's not how you say it.
Therefore, the director, who was unable to give a straightforward affirmative answer, entered Xing's probationary period.
Topaz himself is also an observer, watching how things will develop after Belobog temporarily emerges from the Stellaron crisis.
There are examples in the universe of Planetary Civilization that have successfully seal the Stellaron, but the outcomes for those civilizations were still not very good.
Initially, when the director came forward to collect the debt, she had the idea of transferring the Jarilo -VI to the company's assets, thus having the backing of a behemoth in the universe to face possible challenges.
Winter City is now on a different trajectory, and in Topaz's view, even with the astonishing proportion of Pathstrider in Belobog, it is not enough to solve the real crisis.
The Stellaron was originally sealed by Hua Yi.
But at this very moment, cheers that shattered the snowflakes echoed around them, ordinary citizens shouted encouragement for the Silvermane Guards and the Wildfire, Amber brilliance covered the stage, the warriors displayed their bravery, weapons clashed, and Spark flew.
Everyone was in high spirits.
Even though the heavy helmets obscured the faces of the Silvermane Guards and Wildfire members, making it impossible to distinguish between men and women, Topaz was certain that their expressions must have been happy when they respectfully bowed to Hua Yi after the battle was won.
Because the savior hero feared that the participants would get hurt, and always protected everyone with his power of Preservation.
Topaz should be surprised by Hua Yi's understanding of [Preservation], to estimate how far he has come in his life, and even to include such methods in his considerations, as a basis for the Strategic Investment Department to increase its stake and extend further olive branches in the future.
However, the director doesn't want to dwell on these things now.
Start your vacation now!
No longer having any other identity, Topaz was just a young girl, about the same age as Bronya and the others, watching the Winter City Martial Arts Tournament.
A king cherishes his subjects, and the world reveres his heroes.
There were no schemes, plots, or backstabbing; everyone gathered together, cheering and jumping for joy.
The backdrop remains a vast Snowfield, with most of the planet still frozen over. People have not yet truly left Winter City; they have only survived the initial challenges.
Various problems will inevitably arise in the future, but everyone has the courage and hope to face them.
Perhaps there is a word that can describe this scene.
Great Harmony.
He created it.
Although in Topaz's mind, the Interastral Peace Corporation is still the most powerful and most qualified force on the Order side to Preservation others, whether individuals or civilizations, the girl sincerely wishes that Jarilo -VI, who has not joined the company, can embrace a bright future.
"I want to join the group."
Topaz shifted his seat and moved to sit next to Xing, the Chat Group administrator.
"Ah?"
Galaxy Bat Hero was rummaging through his pockets looking for snacks to feed Hua Yi when he heard a girl make a request, and he temporarily stopped what he was doing.
I am honored to become a group administrator thanks to the trust of the Group Leader [ [Name Redacted] ]. I have an obligation to take this responsibility seriously.
