NPC's Poverty Story

Chapter 117 Take You Home
Half of the silver-white void insect nest is immersed in the sea, and the other half is also exposed to the sky. From a distance, it looks like a huge iceberg floating on the sea.

The honeycomb-like structure on the surface of the insect nest is completely hidden. If you haven't seen its true appearance before, no one will connect this thing with the void insect nest just by looking at the front.

However, there is another scene on the other side of the worm nest, which is the wound left by the worm nest, filled with hazy mist, revealing the atmosphere of chaos from the inside out, giving people a dark and Distorted feeling.

This dark and twisted side is not static. In fact, it is shrinking at a slow speed. This is the result of what An Miao and the others have observed in the past three days. The insect nest has closed itself and is slowly repairing itself.

At this rate, it won't take long for the insect nest to recover. Even though it has lost half of its body, it still cannot be underestimated.

To ordinary people, these bugs are like locusts. No grass grows wherever they pass. Some people even speculate that these bugs can even eat the void after they are hungry.Although their individual combat power cannot be said to be strong, there are too many of them. The speed at which a complete brood can create a swarm is unimaginable.

But the good news is that Rowling will soon come to Cangzhou with new weapons from the equipment department to deal with the insect nest.

As night fell, the tide flooded the coast, and the huge insect nest shone with a faint silver glow under the starlight. Mio, who was changing shifts to monitor the insect nest, looked at this big guy from afar.

She didn't find anything unusual, and she didn't hear the strange sounds that Gan Wei and the others heard when they were on duty. Before An Mio came over, they specifically reminded her that there were occasional strange sounds in the insect nest.

This kind of shift change has lasted for three days, and everyone has been watching this big guy outside for twelve hours. As a newcomer, An Mio was taken care of, until today it was her turn to be on duty.

Although it seems that there should be no changes in the nest for a while, they dare not relax their vigilance. According to the information from the General Administration, there is another exile hidden in Cangzhou. They take turns monitoring the nest while monitoring the nest. Also preventing the unknown exile from causing trouble.

Being on duty is a very boring thing, An Mio has always thought so, and it is true, she is not alone, there are some soldiers on guard besides her, but she doesn't think there is any common topic with these people .

I don't know what new weapons Luo Lin will bring over. An Miao thought of this when she was bored, but according to the philosophy of the Equipment Department, the so-called new weapons must be inseparable from their "art".

At this moment, a strange sound came from the seaside, like whimpering wind, and also like some kind of murmur with unknown meaning. An Mio turned his head and glanced, those soldiers had obviously heard the sound, their faces were Revealed the tension and uneasiness that cannot be concealed.

The sound only lasted for a moment and then disappeared. An Miao took a deep look at the huge silver insect nest. This sound was exactly the strange sound coming from the insect nest that Gan Wei and the others had mentioned before.

"Hello there!"

Suddenly, an erratic but slightly immature voice came from Mio's mind. It was the voice of a little girl, but it did not belong to Erika, because Erika did not come with her.

There were no children around, and the soldiers were still in a nervous state after the strange sound disappeared, but that was all, they didn't seem to hear the sound.

In other words, only she can hear this voice, this voice of unknown origin.

"As expected, you can understand me!" The immature voice came again, even though he didn't know where the voice came from, An Mio could feel a bit of surprise in the words.

"Who are you?" An Mio tried to talk to this mysterious voice in her mind.

"I'm right in front of you! You can see me when you look up." said the voice.

An Mio subconsciously raised her head and looked forward, the coast under the starlight was surging with tides, and further ahead was the silver insect nest...

"Are you a bug nest?" An Mio almost blurted out, but she quickly covered her mouth halfway through the sentence.

"West nest? Is that what you all call me?" The voice seemed curious and puzzled, "What time is it now?"

"One o'clock in the morning." An Mio suppressed the astonishment in her heart, and talked to a worm nest. This feeling is really... so exciting.

"I mean the specific date." That voice seemed a little speechless to An Mio's answer.

"The exact date?" An Mio didn't understand what the other party's intention was, but there was no need to hide something that a three-year-old child knew: "The star calendar is 8862! You void creatures also study the calendar?"

An Mio was a little uneasy at first, but after talking for a few words, she found that the situation seemed a bit strange. The voice from the worm nest did not contain any malice, and it seemed to have forgotten that the person she was talking to had been blown up with a grenade a few days ago she.

It just asked An Miao some things that it seemed to be very interested in. Of course, it was not ruled out that this intelligent insect nest wanted to use this method to confuse her. An Miao was still wary of this strange voice, and even whether it was true. The origin of the insect nest has yet to be verified.

After hearing An Mio's answer, the voice was silent for a long time, and just when An Mio thought it would never appear again, the voice came again: "Do you know Usufral?"

Usufral...An Mio froze for a moment after hearing this name, and then found information related to it in the memory belonging to the Pirate Queen.

That is the name of an ancient galaxy, which is said to be the ruins left after the destruction of a powerful cosmic level force, but now it has become a place for space pirates and mercenary adventurers to explore.

"I've heard of that galaxy." An Mio replied, she wanted to know what the purpose of this voice was, if it was really a worm's nest, as an aborigine of the void, it shouldn't know so much about the outside world.

"Then can you take me there?" The voice suddenly became excited, as if seeing a glimmer of hope in despair, a little pleasantly surprised and a little scared.

"Why should I help you? Besides, you're not a worm's nest at all, are you?" An Mio asked, and now she probably understood why the voice was so pleasantly surprised before.

Regardless of whether the voice came from the worm's nest or not, it definitely wanted to go to Usufral, and the only person who could understand what it said was Mio.

This is because An Miao's system can translate its voice into the universal language, but others cannot, so these words become strange sounds and unknown whispers in the ears of others.

"I am indeed the worm's nest you call me, at least for now." The voice seemed to realize that it was a bit sudden to directly ask others for help: "It was hard for someone to understand what I said, and I was a little excited. I didn't even have time to introduce myself. .”

An Mio was a little stunned after hearing these words, a worm nest wants to introduce itself to you, and it means that it is a worm nest now, what about before?Could it be that the insect nest evolved from other species?

Then An Miao heard the voice and continued: "About a long, long time ago, people called me Princess Elstina. For some reasons, I wandered into the void, but I did not die. Instead, I merged with a spirit that was about to dry up. The void insect nest has become what it is now."

"..."

Putting aside the truth and falsehood, An Miao felt that this story alone could make for a wonderful adventure novel. The human princess wandered into the void and turned into an insect nest, and then shouldn't the next story be about seeking revenge on the enemies who caused her to enter the void?

Congrats on triggering:
【Hidden Mission: Take You Home】

[Mission description: After escaping from the void, the princess who wanders in the void just wants to go back to her hometown for a look (take Elstina back to her hometown of Usuflar). 】

[Task Rewards: Experience Points × 1500000, Void Bug Nest × 1, Elstina Favorability + 500. 】

【Task Level: S】

【Whether to accept? 】

Can this also trigger hidden quests?An Mio is a little confused, this mission is the real hidden mission!Whoever has nothing to do will come here to talk to a worm nest... and even if they come, they may not be able to understand.

But since all the missions appeared, it meant that the worm nest really didn't lie to her.

"Since you still maintain a human soul, why do you still attack humans?" An Mio asked, and Elstina's answer would determine whether she would accept this mission.

"Attacking humans? I've never attacked humans!" Elstina seemed to have finally remembered what had happened before, her tone revealing grievances: "I just wanted to call the swarm to come over to see the situation here, but I was attacked. Your firepower bombing..."

"..." To be honest, An Mio didn't know whether Elstina's words were true or not, but as far as the result was concerned, she really didn't hurt anyone.

"That's all I can tell you," Elstina said.

"I have one last question!" An Miao asked desperately, "How did you escape from the void?"

As the natives of the Void, it is impossible for the Void Insect Nest to leave a medium for building a gateway here, so An Miao is very confused about this issue.

"I just borrowed the passage built by others!" Elstina thought for a while and replied, "I have been wandering in the void until not long ago when I felt the familiar atmosphere of this world, and then I discovered I entered that door and an outsider, which is an exile according to this world. Then I borrowed that door to escape."

Sure enough, An Mio showed a clear expression after hearing this, which was similar to what she had guessed. As for the exile who was supposed to return from the gate of guidance, although Elstina didn't say anything, she could still guess To that exile's fate.

Therefore, the emergence of the Void Insect Hive was a complete accident, something that even the builders of the Connecting Gate could not have imagined.

Then An Miao heard Elstina's complaining voice again: "If that damn light hadn't shattered the door, I could have flown back to Usufral."

"I'll take you back."

An Mio finally accepted the mission. She refused at first, but the mission reward was too fragrant.
