Chapter 49: What?! Did you bring Walter here?

Chase put aside the miscellaneous thoughts in his mind and stopped dwelling on those matters. The unknown always induces unnecessary anxiety.

Chase handed over the medical supplies he brought to Natasha as a gesture of gratitude for her previous free medical assistance. These supplies also happened to alleviate Natasha's urgent needs.

"Chase, where did you get these medical supplies?" Natasha asked with some confusion.

"I got them after a lot of effort from the wanderers," Chase replied.

Indeed, dealing with that group of wanderers required searching through their pockets one by one, which was quite troublesome.

"Thank you for your hard work," Natasha smiled and casually glanced at Bella next to Chase.

Although unsure if March 7th's story was true, if it was, then this seemingly harmless girl next to Chase was the dragon that intimidated all the wanderers and put an end to the riot.

Honestly, Natasha couldn't sense any dragon-like arrogance in Bella, contrary to what March 7th described. The young girl seemed more complex emotionally.

So, Natasha only half believed March 7th's words. Coupled with March 7th's storytelling style, Natasha's trust was halved again.

About 30% trust, still subject to observation.

Bronya stood not far from Chase, curiously observing the clinic's setup. However, her curiosity vanished when she saw the patients affected by the Honkai corruption on the beds.

Her small face tensed, and she fell silent, not knowing what to do, just standing there and listening to Chase and Natasha's conversation.

When Chase mentioned "a lot of effort," Bronya's mouth twitched slightly, but she quickly restrained it.

A lot of effort meant knocking out all the enemies and rummaging through their belongings, right? A lady couldn't engage in such uncouth behavior.

Seele had disappeared, leaving them here, and the train team members had also gone out. Only Bronya, Chase, and Bella remained in the clinic.

"Bronya, what's wrong?" Chase turned his head, seeming to sense a "someone is plotting against me" aura from Bronya.

"Nothing, nothing," Bronya smiled awkwardly.

"Ah, Chase, I brought the leader of 'Wildfire.' You guys want to meet him, right?" Seele pushed the door open and entered, followed by a man with a resolute face, slightly graying hair, and a stubble-covered face.

As Seele spoke while walking, she suddenly noticed that the three members of the train team were missing and asked Bronya, "Hey, where are those three?"

"They seem to have gone out," Bronya said.

"Ah, here they are." Seele's energetic voice came from behind, followed by the lively voice of March 7th.

Chase looked over and indeed saw March 7th, accompanied by Stella and Dan Heng. At this moment, they were looking at Chase and Bella. Although their vigilant expressions were well-hidden, they couldn't escape Chase's eyes.

Dan Heng managed to keep a calm expression, but March 7th and Stella couldn't conceal their emotions well.

At least, their enthusiasm toward Bella was not as strong as at the beginning.

"I have already heard what Seele said. So, if you waste so much effort to find Wildfire, do you want us to help you?" A man named Oleg asked when he saw that everyone had arrived.

The train team relayed the events in the upper district and their quest for the Stellaron to Oleg and Seele.

Chase found it quite interesting, deliberately finding a stool, pulling Bella along, and sitting down to listen to the train team's story.

Unfortunately, there was only the story and no drinks around him; otherwise, Chase might have raised his glass a few times.

After the story, things got even more interesting.

Oleg and Bronya got into an argument, and everyone was driven out by an angry Natasha.

Chase also had to leave his stool, holding Bella's hand to continue watching the show.

But then he lost his appetite.

During the conversation between Oleg and the train team, the focus shifted to a robot named "Svarog," suggesting that it might know something about the Stellaron.

At this moment, Chase's simulator panel also refreshed with a new task.

[Special Task: Help the members of the train team persuade Svarog to reveal information about the Stellaron.]

[Task Reward: One simulation attempt.]

Chase couldn't sit still. He stood up, pulled Bella along, and proposed to the train team:

"Bella and I will go with you!"

March 7th, Stella, and Dan Heng were silent for a moment, looking at each other. They seemed somewhat reserved toward Chase and Bella.

.........................

On the other side, in the upper district of Belobog.

Welt watched the Silver-Haired Iron Guards surrounding him fall into contemplation.

Why surrounded again...

He was just wandering around the city, gathering information. Even if his attire was indeed different from the norm, there was no reason to be pursued by the entire city so quickly.

Welt willfully ignored the main reason he was swiftly pursued...

Since entering the city, he hadn't been there for long before a new wanted poster appeared on the wall, similar to the abstract style of the three members of the train team. He estimated that the Iron Guards he spared reported it when they returned to the city.

So, he got recognized.

Welt looked at the Iron Guards surrounding him with a depressed expression. He hadn't figured out how to go to the lower district yet, and now he had encountered this.

If push came to shove, he could only use force to suppress them...

Thinking so, Welt's eyes narrowed, and his cane manifested in his hand. Just as he was about to exert force, an unknown black sphere passed through the crowd and landed in front of the Silver-Haired Iron Guards. Suddenly, it exploded, releasing a large cloud of black smoke that covered a considerable area.

Welt's expression turned serious, preparing to use his abilities. Suddenly, a person appeared in front of him, grabbed him, and ran outside. In passing, the person said:

"Follow me; I know where your companions are."

The voice belonged to a man, and Welt hesitated for a moment before choosing to temporarily trust him.

At the very least, it would be better than randomly wandering around like a headless fly...
