Poverty makes me capable of anything.

"Oh, you mean that? That's not a bug."

[Not a bug]

"If it's not a bug, then where is the person?"

"Oh my god, where do I continue the quest I accepted last time, and where do I turn it in after I finish it?"

"All that reputation I painstakingly earned!"

"The official explanation is that this is a result of the plot."

"Hey, hey, hey, could it be that the entire hyperspace was wiped out while we were away?"

"I'm going to blow up this ridiculous game company!"

[System detected a player posting threatening remarks; one warning issued.]

"..."

“The faction is still there; we’re still part of the Chronosphere faction,” Warhammer said. “This means the Chronosphere wasn’t destroyed; they must have moved away for some reason we don’t know.”

This is the most tragic family in the world.

While other players were happily discussing how to complete quests and farm reputation, players from the Time-Space faction posted a help request on the forum.

Have you seen our time-travel portal?

What the heck?

Our camp has disappeared. Have you seen it?

【? ? ? 】

After a lengthy explanation, all the players were still confused.

What about ANR? Oh no, I hope something bad happens to my wife.

This is a player from the sidelines of the Time-Space Rift.

[The faction ran away? Hahaha, that's hilarious! Biubiubiu, let's see if the Warhammer guild still dare to be arrogant!]

This is a player who has a conflict with the Time-Space faction.

The two sides were locked in a fierce battle, but no one could offer a reasonable explanation. There were all sorts of speculations, but none of them were convincing.

While browsing forums in prison, An Ran secretly gloated for a long time. In fact, she had already considered this situation. Therefore, before letting the people from the time-space dimensional detached, An Ran still left some things in the City of Ether.

"Let them go."

It's not a good time to send players to Dolphin Star, because if there are too many players, the location of Dolphin Star will definitely be exposed.

So Anran came up with a new way out for these players.

"Let's get a job!"

Go work for other factions.

While the Time-Space faction nominally cooperates with multiple rebel factions, it also maintains connections with Night Owl due to the opening of the Nadia storyline. This ensures that players can receive missions. Additionally, Anran will also issue some missions to them, and although they are separated by millions of light-years, the missions can still be completed.

Wait patiently for the opportunity to arise.

Then we'll let the Royal Knights experience the power of the Fourth Calamity as it grows stronger.

Anran's orders were relayed through Ella. The Royal Knights believed they had cut off all of Anran's contact with the outside world through various means, but they were unaware of just how special Ella was.

Special frequencies completely transcend all communication methods they could understand, and since they didn't know this, they naturally had no countermeasures.

Ella's presence also gave Anran the power to control the situation remotely.

Through the route of Ayra-the round-trip spaceship-Juliana, Anran's orders arrived, albeit late.

After some time, just as the players were debating whether to leave Baplo, a sapphire blue light appeared in the sky, attracting the attention of all the players.

The light lingered in mid-air for a long time. Some players used telescopes to try to see what it was, but what they saw was a blue ocean.

The beam of light didn't stay still for long; after a while, it fell towards the ground.

"Yes, it's an NPC!"

Some sharp-eyed players finally saw through the true nature of the blue light.

"Who?"

"It looks familiar, but it's not from another time-travel era. Where have I seen it before?"

"I remember now, isn't this En Ye, the very powerful master from the Crystal Civilization?"

Players who remembered this immediately recalled it—

Aside from the master technician Xavier, that man could be ranked among the top three in the Crystal Civilization.

"Could it be that the time-space traveler moved to the territory of the Crystal Civilization?"

Just as the players were wondering what was going on, En landed on the ground.

He was also puzzled. He hovered in the sky above Bapulo for a long time, but no one came out to question him about what he was doing. Then he discovered that the only people left in the area of ​​Bapulo near the Time-Space City were strangers.

"What about people?"

It's really frustrating.

The master technician recovered well from his injuries and finally won the opportunity to travel. Enye's first destination was the Hyperdimensional Dimension, where he decided to join and learn carefully.

But now everyone is gone.

En also found a player: "Do you know where all the people from the Time-Space Rift went?"

"We don't know, but we'd like to know too."

"..."

En shook his head in disappointment.

What a bad start!

Is the first stop on my travels going to be cut short?

We can only ask around elsewhere first. Although these strangers don't know the situation, the locals who stayed in Bapulo might know.

Just as En was about to fly away from the Time-Space City, his eyes suddenly sharpened.

Something's not right.

The small, protruding castle behind him suddenly stirred with an unusual commotion.

En suddenly turned his head and saw countless zigzag-like bolts of lightning appear at the entrance of the small castle. The bolts of lightning eventually connected together to form a skeleton.

And so, one robot after another appeared.

"!!!"

Chapter 01 I'm Not Human Anymore

It's a mechanical puppet!

Players who had fought countless times against mechanical golems in the challenge arena to gain reputation recognized him at a glance.

Mechanical golems can be considered a synonym for time travel.

Nowhere else do you see such a domineering "kid".

Because it was made using ether technology, the Mechanical Church was originally able to manufacture some. However, after its headquarters moved to the planet Baplo, the Mechanical Church no longer focused on this and instead devoted all its energy to organizing the technologies that the Church had lost.

During the Great Evacuation, for safety reasons, the people of the Mechanicus also evacuated.

Because the next Pope, Ella, was involved, the old Pope and the Vatican leadership had no doubts.

They believed that Ella was on the side of the Vatican and would not do anything that would harm the Vatican's interests.

Emmm...

The last time the Vatican headquarters was eaten was just an accident.

That was to save the Papacy, which is understandable.

Players who were closer to the City of Ether immediately slid down the slope.

After they came out, this mechanical puppet appeared; there must be a storyline involved.

"Authentication successful!"

Sure enough, when the players walked up to the mechanical golem, they were immediately swept over from head to toe by a dense green light.

After comparing the data with its internal database and confirming that these players were not spies from the opposing faction, the mechanical puppet began issuing missions according to the program Anran had set up in advance.

Task 1.

The Trial Before Nightfall

The Time-Space Rift has encountered some difficulties, and it's time to test players' skills. Level up to 100 or higher as soon as possible! Recommended leveling spots (Night Owl's coverage area, Nolan, etc.)

This looks like a prerequisite task in some kind of task chain.

Task 2.

[Find the Key]

The Time-Space Realm is searching for the key to the Silent Land, and rewards will be distributed based on the information players possess.

Task 3.

The Pupils of the Ancient Gods

Followers of a mysterious cult are scattered around the world, and they seem to be plotting to resurrect the ancient gods. Let's investigate this matter thoroughly!

Task 4.

【The Other Shore】

Clear the team dungeon [Exploring the Other Shore - Beginning].

"They were just saying there were no more quests to take, but I didn't expect there to be new quests, and even a quest chain!"

"Damn, what's there to hesitate about? Let's accept the mission!"

"Sigh, but the problem is I still can't complete the tasks I accepted before."
