I changed the timeline with the game.

Chapter 679: A Piece of Truth: The Endless Tower at Dusk

that's it,
Along with the increase in trunk space, it serves as an induction transmitter for insect swarms.

The dark blue Margaret, which even had an extra-large passenger cabin, suddenly left the Greystone City of Clemens with the roar of its engine.

Su Wen controlled the steering wheel with one hand and sped across the yellow sand wilderness.

The wind blew up the dust.

But there was no damage to the body shell at all.

That was because the invisible psychic barrier formed by the [Legendary Relic: Branlit's Lantern] placed on his right hand side was constantly surrounding the car body.

That faint light barrier not only blocked the invasion of the endless swarm of insects.

even,

It also protects the chassis of the car from being sucked into quicksand.

This made Su Wen not worry about being trapped in this endless sea of sand.

Actually,
The protective measures he took were already perfect enough.

The modified motorcycles driven by the Antonio Alliance members who drove in from the tower during the day and then traded with the cultists.

The performance of the machine is far inferior to the enhanced racing car he is driving now.

however,
This quiet desert is not as peaceful as it appears.

Because Su Wen was gradually surrounded by a dense swarm of insects.

There were even many swarms of insects constantly gathering from all over the town, forming a huge black wave.

"The threat of the Black Tide is not a force that I cannot borrow."

He said casually,

even,

All this was in his plan.

These swarms of insects were so huge that they densely covered the entire sky and the ground.

Their eyes flashed with a dark green light and they made shrill hissing sounds, as if they were engaged in a terrifying hunt.

however,
Despite the large number and might of the swarm,
But they were unable to break through the psychic barrier set up by Mr. Scholar using legendary relics.

Looking at the densely packed scene that was already ready, he just smiled and lightly snapped his fingers:
【Transformation of World Influence: Scope Control】

[Presence reduced! ]

Since it's a gift.

Then,

How can we do without some surprises?

Su Wen could already imagine the expressions of "incredibly surprised" on the faces of Antonio's allies and the Blood Moon believers when they suddenly saw this great gift.

He was looking forward to it.

A calm smile also carries a lot of meaning.

After completing a series of work,

Because of the auxiliary navigation of the architecture program, he was not worried about deviation. Instead, he asked the three girls in the rest area behind him:

"how do you feel?"

“Very exciting!”

Joyce said happily.

The surrounding scenery was rapidly receding, and this feeling made her feel as if she was flying:
"Mr. Kevin, I also want to try the feeling of driving this car."

"not now."

Su Wen smiled gently.

"But there will be opportunities later, I promise."

"Ok!"

She nodded happily. After feeling a little hungry,
The miner girl instantly shifted her attention to the delicious food that the handsome scholar had just mentioned.

When Miss Joyce thought of her previous experience, she couldn't help herself.

The freezer door slowly opened.

A cool and fresh air blew towards me with colorful light and shadows.

There were all kinds of exquisite little cakes neatly arranged in the freezer. They were colorful and of various shapes. Some looked like blooming ice roses, while others looked like exquisite works of art.

Each layer of these cakes is spread with thick cream and decorated with fresh fruits and colorful sugar beads, which looks delicious and tempting.

They also have one common feature:
That is:
So delicious!
Waves of tempting aromas waft out of the freezer, including the sweet and sour taste of strawberries, the richness of chocolate, the fluffiness of cream, and a hint of vanilla... These aromas are intertwined together to form an irresistible temptation.

"I can't help it!"

The miner's daughter was the first to act.
She happily took out a small cake that looked delicious and took a big bite without hesitation.

The fluffiness of the cream and the sweet and sour taste of the fruit intertwined in her mouth, and she couldn't help but close her eyes and enjoy this sudden deliciousness.

Although the other two girls seemed a little shy, they were also deeply attracted by the fragrance.

They looked at each other, then carefully picked up the small cake they liked.

Although their actions were not as decisive as those of the miner girls, their eyes were also full of anticipation and desire for delicious food.

Under the temptation of the alluring fragrance,
They also began to taste these delicious little cakes.

And the moment they took the first bite, their pupils instantly dilated and they entered a state of trance.

Jean and Norma were unable to think anymore, they didn't know if they had arrived in heaven.

Su Wen, who saw this scene through the rearview mirror in the center of the car, also smiled gently.

Such a high threshold of happiness can be achieved through such simple things.
He had no feelings of compassion.
Just happy for them.

As they traveled at high speed through the sand river and the swarm of insects.

According to Su Wen's calculations, it should take less than two hours' drive for him to reach his destination.

at the same time,

On the other side of the world,
At their destination, the huge tower slowly revealed its true appearance:
It was an extremely huge mega-elevator.

The combined throughput can even reach nearly a thousand units each time, and each unit is a high-tech elevator magazine for transporting different items.

In fact, many elevators are completely empty, they just slowly bounce to a higher level.

The metamaterial honeycomb structure that wraps around the outside of the elevator is staggered, making each floor like an oppressive dome, gradually tightening the air and making it hard to breathe.

The next level down from the Graystone City of Clemens where Su Wen and his friends were,
As the elevator door opened heavily, it was an endless factory area.

A depressing and heavy steampunk atmosphere hit me in the face, and the air was filled with a mixed smell of metal and machine oil, mixed with an unsettling sense of dullness.

This factory area is no longer a production site in the traditional sense, but a huge cloning incubation center.

Tall metal racks support densely packed glassware, each of which is like a cage that imprisons life.

In these glass vessels, genetically modified human embryos float quietly in nutrient solution, their future ruthlessly manipulated and unable to choose their own destiny.

Even minus this huge cloning incubation center.

There are also countless steam-style buildings here, which have been arranged into an extremely dense city model.

In a building with nearly thirty floors.

A bearded man in a black jacket leaned against the window, looking at the huge tunnel elevator, with a cigarette in his mouth, and sighed:
"'Endless Tower at Dusk'.

It can even accommodate nearly a thousand interstellar elevators operating at the same time.

What a magnificent building.

Before the Age of Origin arrived,

perhaps,

It is simply impossible to imagine that such a huge megastructure really exists in this world."
