Chapter 44 Natasha in Rocky Town, Lower City
"Hometown?" Bronya asked in surprise.
Chen Feng nodded: "You're Cocolia's adopted child, right? Do you remember your original home?"
Upon hearing this, Bronya frowned slightly. After thinking for a while, she realized that her childhood memories were completely blank, and she couldn't recall anything at all.
"Sir, you know?!" Bronya looked at Chen Feng with some surprise, not expecting that Chen Feng would know about such a thing.
"Hmm." Chen Feng said with a smile, "I know quite a bit about your world, including where your hometown is. How about going back for a visit? You might be surprised by what you find."
After a pause, Chen Feng suddenly added, "Don't worry, with me here, it won't take long to go back and take a look."
Hearing this, Bronya couldn't help but feel curious. Where exactly was her hometown? What kind of place was it? How could she have forgotten?
"Since Mr. Chen Feng has already made his decision, I wish you both a safe journey. The matter of the Star Core still needs to be resolved, so I cannot stay any longer." Seeing that Chen Feng had made his decision, Ji Zi also prepared to leave.
"Okay." Chen Feng nodded, then looked at Bronya after watching Himeko leave. "Leaving now?"
Bronya felt inexplicably uneasy upon hearing this, but still nodded: "Yes, I'd like to go and see too."
Chen Feng took out his phone and was talking to someone, then turned it off and said to Bronya, "Wait a moment, someone will come to take us there soon."
About two or three hours later, Bronya looked at the man standing in front of them with some surprise. "Sir, is the person you mentioned who can take us there?"
"Oh dear, to be so affirmed by Mr. Chen Feng, I, Old Sangbo, am truly flattered." Sangbo looked at the two of them with an embarrassed expression, rubbing his palms.
Heaven knows how bewildered he was when Xing suddenly approached him and asked him to go to the Upper City to find Chen Feng. But there was nothing he could do. The envoy had already spoken, and besides, Xing had done so much for Belloberg. What could he, a mere native, say? He could only do his utmost and die for the cause.
"Enough with the small talk. I know you have a way to get down there. I'm planning to take Bronya back to see what's going on. There's no problem with that, is there? I don't think you were unaware of this."
Chen Feng stepped forward, patted Sang Bo on the shoulder, and said with a smile.
"Haha~" Sang Boqian laughed a few times, but he was also surprised. He didn't expect Chen Feng to know so much about Bronya's past. However, it wasn't anything special.
"Although I don't know what you mean by what you said next, if you want to go to the lower city, then you've come to the right person."
"Leave it to Old Sambo, you can rest assured, he will make you feel right at home."
"Do a good job, I believe in you." Chen Feng nodded affirmatively.
"I didn't expect there to be a way to the lower city from here." Following Sangbo, the three of them soon arrived at a secret passage leading down to the lower city.
"Lady Bronya, please don't make a big deal out of this. This is just to make a living. Supplies are scarce in the lower city. If we don't find another way, we're afraid there will be a lot of problems."
When it came to serious matters, Sambo became unusually serious. Knowing that Bronya would succeed as the High Warden, and although he knew that with Chen Feng around, the past situation wouldn't repeat itself, he still had to say what needed to be said.
Bronya didn't refute it. It was indeed inhumane of Cocolia to do this, so she just silently followed Sambo to a small town in the lower city.
Panyan Town is the only town in the Lower City that has not been invaded by the Rift, and it is also where the vast majority of people in the Lower City live.
"Where do we go next?" Looking around, Bronya could tell just by looking at her how dire the situation in the lower city was, and he couldn't help but frown.
"Even a powerful dragon can't suppress a local snake, so naturally we should greet the local snake first, right?" Sangbo was embarrassed as soon as he finished speaking, it seemed that this powerful dragon really could suppress the local snake.
Having gotten used to being a tour guide, I almost forgot that neither of these two were exactly easy to deal with.
Bronya was also a little angry when she heard this. Local bully is not a good word. It is easy to associate it with rebel forces.
"Ahem, Lady Bronya, please don't misunderstand. I was just giving a symbolic explanation of how the local gangs are perceived by the locals."
Sambo quickly added, "Currently, the largest gang in the lower city is called [Earthfire]. With the blockade of the passage between the upper and lower cities, [Earthfire] came into being and took on the task of protecting the lower city and providing rescue. It was formed spontaneously by good people."
"We have never done anything to oppress the people, and we are a righteous force in the hearts of the people of the Lower City."
Bronya's expression softened considerably upon hearing this, but she still felt a pang of sadness. Had the situation in the lower city become this dire?
"Without being able to exchange goods with the upper city, the lower city can't sell its ores, nor can it purchase supplies from the upper city. Naturally, the situation in the lower city will become extremely serious." Chen Feng added a reason, as this was something Bronya had to consider, and he certainly wouldn't interfere.
As the saying goes, practice makes perfect, and methods that haven't been personally investigated are untenable. This is one of the reasons why Chen Feng wanted to bring Bronya down to see for herself.
"Sambo, don't do anything foolish at a time like this. If you're going to see someone, go see the real boss." Chen Feng smiled at Sambo, ignoring Bronya's thoughts.
"How could this be?" Upon hearing this, Sangbo broke out in a cold sweat. He had actually intended to take Chen Feng and the others to meet the nominal leader, but he hadn't expected Chen Feng to know about this. It seemed that he couldn't fool him anymore.
"I knew you wouldn't lie to me." After knocking once, the three of them arrived at a fairly clean house.
"This is... a hospital?" Bronya recognized where she was by the smell of her surroundings.
"Yes." Sambo nodded. "It's also the place where the true leader of [Earthfire] resides."
After saying that, Sambo stepped forward and pushed open the door.
"Squeak~"
Natasha, who was struggling with the shortage of medical supplies inside the house, instinctively looked over when she heard the sound.
"Sambo, you're back. And who are these two?" Natasha was a little surprised to see Sambo bring two strangers over again, but she didn't say anything. After all, she couldn't see through Sambo, and if it wasn't going to be good for her, she would just let him be.
