At the beginning, the survivors were primarily preparing for the next round of natural disasters.

But when three months had passed and the new round of disasters still hadn’t struck, some survivors became somewhat aimless, while the officials seized this opportunity to quickly work on technological restoration.

After half a year, it seemed as if the survivors had grown accustomed to this peaceful life, although deep down there was still a hint of vigilance.

When the ninth month arrived and there were still no signs of any calamity, the officials began to restore the education system.

By the end of a year, except for the wilderness which remained complicated, most of the camps in China began to show signs of prosperity.

Just when the survivors thought the disasters were over and stable days were on the horizon,

suddenly numerous cracks appeared in the sky, with sharp objects at the forefront piercing through the fissures, and then like a pair of hands, they tore at the sky’s rifts, continuously pulling and expanding them.

When the cracks became significantly large, something like flowing water gushed incessantly from them.

Upon noticing the anomaly, everyone stopped what they were doing, as unpleasant memories flooded their minds and alarms once more resounded throughout the camp.

Dong Tianyu, who was in the midst of cultivation, felt a sudden increase in the concentration of Spirit Energy in the air and realized that a new round of disasters might have appeared.

Stepping out of his door, he looked up to see sights that resembled pillars stretching from the sky to the ground, seemingly connecting them.

Although Dong Tianyu’s senses were extremely sharp after his cultivation, the scenes were too far away from where he was, so he could only vaguely sense that those columns connecting the sky and the earth were not solid; they must be like water columns, continuously pouring from the sky down to the ground.

Driven by curiosity, Dong Tianyu controlled a flying sword to approach and investigate.

After a period of cultivation, Dong Tianyu’s cultivation level was nearing the completion of the Foundation Building Stage and not far from the Golden Core Stage.

The closer Dong Tianyu got to the scene, the stranger the expression on his face became.

Just as Dong Tianyu had guessed, those ’pillars’ connecting the sky and the earth were not solid, but countless Soldier Bugs, akin to those seen in the Starship Troopers, constantly falling from the cracks in the sky and creating this spectacle.

The closer he got to his destination, the uglier Dong Tianyu’s expression became. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

The crack that appeared in the sky was definitely hundreds of meters above the ground.

Yet, despite the height, the Soldier Bugs emerging from the crack still fell from the sky without any protection.

Perhaps because Dong Tianyu arrived late, he was unsure of the condition of the first Soldier Bugs that came through the crack.

By the time Dong Tianyu got close to his destination, the falling Soldier Bugs had already formed a small hill on the ground, and this hill’s height was still increasing.

Countless Soldier Bugs kept emerging through the crack onto Blue Star, and within just a few minutes, the hill made of Soldier Bugs had already grown over a hundred meters tall. At this rate, it wouldn’t be long before the peak of this hill of Soldier Bugs could reach the crack in the sky.

When Dong Tianyu finally got close to the crack in the sky, he discovered that there were eight bug legs, like expansion tools, supporting the edges of the crack.

The Soldier Bugs from the other end of the crack poured into Blue Star as if in a hurried march.

But since the crack was high in the sky, the Soldier Bugs just arriving on Blue Star experienced a bungee jump without a safety rope.

Seeing this, Dong Tianyu controlled the Flying Swords to directly stab at one of the bug claws supporting the crack’s edge.

However, to Dong Tianyu’s surprise, after a clear clashing sound, his Flying Sword was deflected to one side, and the attacked bug claw remained unharmed.

Seeing this, Dong Tianyu’s expression did not change. He’d been prepared for this outcome; after all, a bug claw capable of tearing through space was no surprise for defying the attack of a Foundation Building Stage Flying Sword.

Looking down at the increasingly high Bug Mountain, Dong Tianyu’s face grew grimmer.

Although the likelihood was that the Soldier Bugs forming the base of the Bug Mountain would not survive, the height of Bug Mountain was now not far from the crack in the sky. The Soldier Bugs emerging from the crack could now safely climb down to the ground via the Bug Mountain.

It had been a while since Dong Tianyu reached this place, but there was no sign that the crack in the sky was about to close.

Looking around, even within Dong Tianyu’s field of vision, he could see no fewer than five space cracks.

With this situation, it wasn’t just Blue Star at risk; in the China region alone, there was no telling how many members of the Bugs Clan would descend.

Unlike the previous disasters, this catastrophe seemed more like an invasion, although in many accounts, the Bug Race invasion is also referred to as a natural disaster.

Mechanoids (Mechano-protocols),

High-Dimensional Invasion (Myriad Heavenly Tribes),

Void Bug Disaster (Bug Race),

Undying Projections (Players),

These are the four great disasters in the novel, which are also four different types of invading enemies.

Leaving the other three aside for now, the Void Bug Race is not just a single type of bug race but a collective term for countless varieties of bug races.
