I changed the timeline with the game.

Chapter 686 Dancing with Insects
The brilliant and stunning cosmic influences were reflected in their eyes in a more expansive way.

Unfortunately,
Krosan probably couldn't see such a shocking scene.

She's probably still catching up on sleep.

now,

Under the boundless starry sky, there stood a twilight tower so huge that it could be called a city. It soared into the clouds, as if connecting the sky and the abyss.

And Su Wen finally appreciated the core supporting structure of the interstellar elevator from such a close distance.

Its surface is covered with an unknown metal material, which glows a faint twilight under the starlight, giving people a feeling of both mystery and solemnity.

Twilight Tower,

perhaps,

That’s what it really represents.

In fact, when Su Wen saw this scene, he truly realized that even Clemens' existence was not unique.

in the distance,
Even the sea of stars beyond,

There are many, many star towers with the same structure as the one they are currently in.

"No wonder such an important structure was so poorly defended by those cultists."

Su Wen finally understood the fear and despair felt by the deceased Night Watch pioneer.
"How many similar star towers do they have?"

even,

Even in this situation,

According to the advance team member, the crisis has not really arrived yet.

now,

The crisis is coming and the border war is truly about to begin.

Only left:

Twenty hours.

According to what Joyce added later, only by finding the three relics can he truly obtain the location where the advance team members had desperately hidden the group of cultists who secretly carried out the birth of the god.

The system prompt suddenly appeared:

[Congratulations, great chief player]

[You get a hidden mission of level A: The last words from the night watchman]

【mission target:】

[One Star: 'Buried in the Sea of Stars', find the remains of the Night Watch vanguard and bring them back to Lawrence Riel (3/3)]

[Two Stars: Find the way to the cultists to hatch the 'God']

[Samsung: Find the ultimate way to reduce the intensity of the border war]

"It's worthy of being an A-level hidden mission."

Su Wen looked at the three-star tasks with increasing difficulty, but he already had an idea in his mind.

He knew it very well in his heart.

It's not always that I happen to be involved in an event in such a short period of time.

Quite the opposite.

Those time limits that are gradually counting down are the real [difficulty limits] of time-travel games.

He said to the miner lady beside him:
"Joyce,

Sorry.

Because time is too tight.

Next, you may have to go to our destination alone.
You need to go to the depths of this huge star tower, to the cathedral that belongs to the real Greystone City, Clemens, and use your authority to win more companions."

Hear him say that.

The girl had no fear.

He just responded by giving Su Wen a big smile:

“Well, Mr. Kevin, although I don’t know anything, I will try my best.

I will definitely save them.”

"I believe you."

Su Wen gently rubbed her short hair.
"Don't worry,

I will help you fend off the strongest enemies, but you will have to rely on yourself for the smaller ones."

He took out several low-level border relics from the storage box. After all, they didn't have the psychic power to use the high-level ones.

He handed them to Joyce, Qin and Norma along with some consumables, and said to the remaining two girls:

“This is a rare opportunity for you.

Do not worry,
You all have the same potential as Joyce,

Star tower control station and log query work,

Once Joyce has rescued your people, head there immediately."

And hearing him say this,
Qin, holding the book, asked in a low voice:
"We just heard that gentleman's last words. He said he saw the nameless ones who were clones like us but were also resisting.
If we find those people,
Will it make the plan go more smoothly? "

Su Wen admired her intelligence very much and added:
"sure,
But remember to be a little cautious while trusting.
I have no doubt about their strong will.

But I'm worried that Antonio has left a secret door deep in their subconscious."

now,

As the girls carefully packed the relics and consumables he handed them into their small bags,
The boundless swarm of insects finally covered the sky and arrived at the next level of the Greystone City of Clemens before them.

even,

Reached a higher position.

Under the boundless starry sky, the Twilight Tower stands like a huge shadow. It rises high into the clouds, yet exudes an oppressive and terrifying atmosphere.

This tower may have originally been the crystallization of the technology and wisdom of the Twilight Star Cluster, but now it has become a passage for the bloodthirsty insect swarm.

They flew higher up along the elevator shaft of the dusk tower.
It's like the prelude to a nightmare.

The swarm of insects has distorted shapes, colorful yet ominous appearance. They flap their wings and fly high, making bursts of heart-pounding buzzing sounds.

Not only did they pour into the Dusk Tower, they also followed the elevator corridors and invaded the higher levels of the Clemens Space Station in Greystone City.

But this is also a rare opportunity for Su Wen.

They must have a larger disaster group to help them attract attention.

As the swarm of insects arrives,
The originally peaceful atmosphere in the upper floors of the Star Tower was completely broken.

Countless non-combatants and even just Antonio's joint research population were horrified to discover:
These bloodthirsty insect swarms seem to have an uncontrollable desire for flesh and blood. Their existence makes the entire space station shrouded in an atmosphere of death and despair.

The elevator door opened again and again.

Each time was accompanied by the eerie buzzing of the swarm.

Countless researchers hid in corners, holding their weapons tightly, their eyes filled with fear and despair. They knew that these bloodthirsty insect swarms were a real nightmare.

But I don’t know.

That nightmare,
In fact, they made it themselves.

With the crazy invasion of insect swarms,
The red alarm lights on the dusk tower began to flash wildly.
The flashing red light is particularly dazzling in the dim factory area and even in the human research laboratory filled with formalin.

Florence Morgan, who was visiting JPMorgan Chase, was also shocked by the sudden alarm.

The cigarette in his mouth fell instantly, rolled onto the sand, and emitted a faint blue smoke.

The bearded man widened his eyes and looked at everything in front of him in disbelief:
He never thought that in such a seemingly absolutely safe place, he would encounter such a horrible thing:

"The Swarm Scourge?"

He turned to look at the old man beside him, Old Bosen.
He even grabbed old Person by the collar and lifted him up:
"You're plotting against me?!"

"How could I dare to do such a thing?
If I don’t suppress the insect plague, I won’t be able to survive.”

Old Person showed a mouthful of rotten yellow teeth, and fine beads of cold sweat oozed out of his forehead.
