Poverty makes me capable of anything.

The mechanical golem, transformed into a turret, began firing.

Endless energy was poured into the body of the Chongwang Worm one after another, and the woven fire net dealt 200% critical damage with each strike.

With the interference of the mechanical swarm, the ferocious Queen was unable to exert any real power.

"One round, two rounds, three rounds..."

The players who were counting lost count; all they knew was that the King Worm had been bombarded many times.

The impact pinned it to the ground, and it was unable to put up even the slightest resistance.

This creature is so powerful!

clap clap.

The final burning dried up the remaining four thousand-odd points of health of the king insect, and with a mournful cry, the [Wrathful Insect] storyline quest was completed.

An Ran gained a large amount of experience, a bracelet that increases fog resistance, a Queen Insect Heart that summons a level 70 Queen Insect, and many high-level materials, all of which were excellent.

Unlike summoning cards, that heart summons enemies instead of creatures, making it a perfect challenge for players.

Once they reach a higher level, just bring them out and let them fight.

【mighty!】

[Incredibly powerful, truly worthy of ANR.]

So this is the ultimate form of the Mechanic? It takes violent aesthetics to the extreme.

The players' minds were filled with the dazzling scene that made it hard to see clearly. The only thing that looked good was the King Worm lying on the ground, howling incessantly, and bleeding profusely.

This boss, who is invincible in the eyes of players, is as weak as a master in front of An Ran.

"Sigh, if only there were king insects like these lining up to get beaten up every day."

Players are also expressing their feelings—

Ah, if only ANR could help me level up every day.

Ah, if ANR were my wife, that would be even better. We could grind monsters together during the day and wash up together at night.

Washing dishes?

Shut up, you shameless old thief!

"shallow!"

The trio huddled in the crowd chuckled.

The goddess you all love really did help us level up every day!

Are you envious or jealous?

Our relationship is very deep!

Warhammer frowned, realizing that things were not so simple.

Based on his recent observations, these three suspicious female players seem to have had direct contact with ANR. Could it be that they have found some special way to get around this?

Yes, we need to keep a close eye on it.

ANR is the top support in the Time-Space Rift; if you stick close to them, you can gain far more than just a hidden class.

The elimination of the queen insect indicates that there is no longer any danger around the outpost.

Afterwards, the players went down into the underground cave and swept through the King's nest, which also signified that this irregular celestial body had officially become the territory of the hyperspace and had been recognized by the game.

The Time-Space Dimension has barely managed to gain a foothold in the Hidden Sands.

The next thing to consider is to use the outposts as bases to search for various mineral resources. Once we can achieve self-sufficiency, nothing in Nagria will be able to stop Anran.

However, a small accident occurred when the plan was being executed.

A spaceship traveling through a galaxy in search of minerals encountered another spaceship.

The uniquely designed twin-hulled spaceship is about 217 meters long and has a purple H-shaped symbol.

"..."

Both sides raised their alert levels, and after a ten-minute standoff, they finally made contact.

Fortunately, they encountered other players, which allowed the conversation to proceed smoothly.

"We are a mining ship from the Dust Realm. Who are you?"

"We are a mining ship from the Republic of Novalu."

ha?

Dust Realm?

The Republic of Novalu?

What the hell are these?

Countless faces were dumbfounded.

Chapter 02 Ah, the people from the neighboring star system are so strong!

When encountering a spaceship of unknown origin, the astute player did not reveal that they were from the Nagria border region.

They were veterans who had played several games and had been playing for more than five years. Even though they knew that the opponent was just an NPC, they still held back.

They would be so surprised if they knew they were from Nagoria, which spans more than an entire Covenant.

The players had considered everything thoroughly, but suddenly realized that the "Dust Territory" the other side mentioned could not be found on the map at all!

Not to mention their player maps, it can't be found even in those star maps that roughly record the territories of various major powers.

"Dust Territory? There's no such place. I checked the Royal Library but couldn't find it."

ha?

The bewildered player first informed Anran of the news.

A place name whose location cannot be found!

Where is this?

This is the Hidden Sandbar, the boundary of this star system.

It's called a boundary, but as long as you cross this boundary, which is of unknown width, you can reach another star system on the other side!

According to records on the official forum, the star system where the Empire is located has no actual contact with the surrounding star systems. It is a remote star system suitable for players to play in, and its combat strength is not particularly impressive.

If this dust territory isn't just something made up, then it must be a region from the neighboring star system.

And that's exactly what Anran guessed.

Although she was still in Hidden Sands, the place Zhou Jieyu had arrived at was already close to another star field.

This mining ship belongs to a faction within the Dust Territory.

There is no such thing as the Republic of Novalu in the Dust Territory.

"Could they have just randomly chosen this place name?"

The people in charge on the mining ship gathered together and talked.

This group has a very peculiar ethnicity.

Although they have human-shaped bodies, they also retain many "animal characteristics".

They are the rabbit-eared tribe!

It has long, rabbit-like ears that usually droop down but stand up when excited. However, this master of emotional control can now control his ears very well.

They like to wear black bodysuits, I don't know what material they're made of, but they really accentuate their figures.

"I'll try again."

A female "rabbit-eared tribe" member glanced at the others and then approached the sound-emitting device.

“Our records do not include a place like the Republic of Novalu, and your spaceship does not look like a mining vessel…”

“If you’re asking whether it looks like one,” An Ran suddenly interrupted the conversation, directly cutting off the other person’s words, “in our eyes, your spaceship doesn’t look like a mining ship at all.”

"?"

What the hell? This is a standard mining ship, okay? What the hell are you talking about?

"To tell you the truth, I think we should be from different star systems."

An Ran never intended to hide the news at all.

She wasn't afraid of getting into trouble, so she deployed a bunch of advanced mechanical puppets to grind monsters and help with quests, while she hid herself well in Nagria, so no one could catch her.

As for the flight path map, it is stored in Tantang's database. It is docked once every time the spacecraft sets off, and the data can be cleared and withdrawn at any time, so the risk of leakage is extremely low.

What An Ran said was quite shocking.

The rabbit-eared people exchanged glances.

People from different star systems.

They thought this was nonsense because the Hidden Sands was too dangerous. Near the edge (actually the middle area), there would be super-strong galactic storms that no spaceship could withstand. The distorted space also prevented the warp drive from starting.

A spaceship coming from the other side of Hidden Sands, that sounds too far-fetched.

"Given the strength of this spaceship, is it impossible for it to pass through a galactic storm unscathed?" The expert on the spaceship shook his head.

Another expert nodded in agreement.

The woman with rabbit ears who was talking to An Ran made a gesture to indicate that she understood.

"We mean no harm. Once you see the markings on our spaceship, you'll know we are..."

"I'm sorry, I really don't know. If you don't believe me, there's nothing I can do."

"I……"

The rabbit was speechless after being rebuked by An Ran.

"Alright, I'll assume you came from another star system. But how did you get through the galactic storm?"

A galactic storm?
