章 501: Chapter 494. Behind the Curtain of Stars

[True. We simply introduce them to a better way of living]

[How far is the progress?] The 'wings' asked. Or at least, it sounded from that direction. For all Zein knew, it might come from the one made of twinkling stars beside it.

[About sixty percent of the tunnel had been deployed] someone replied. [The gatestones are still being spread in other patronless planets. Once we activate the system, we can open the portal simultaneously]
