Under the impact of the energy nova emitted from the planetary engine, the insect characteristics on the Blade Queen's body are also disappearing, the original purple skin gradually turns back to fair skin, the hideous bone wings are rapidly degrading, and the armor-like shell covering the body is also constantly falling off.

"No ——!!!"

A hoarse male voice came from the Blade Queen's mouth, not at all like the Blade Queen's own voice, but the evil will that Emon had been acting on the swarm for a long time that had been lurking in her body, and was letting out a final scream.

As waves of new energy stars washed through her body, the Queen of Blades was finally purified into a human again, reverting to Sarah Kerrigan.

It's just that her hair still retains a nerve bundle like a gorgon, as if to indicate that she will have a chance to become the Queen of Blades again.

But that's the story of the Swarm Heart, at least not yet.

After the Queen of Blades turned back into a human, Renault, who survived the impact of the endless insect tide, dragged his tired body over.

He didn't say much, just silently picked up Kerrigan, who had turned back into a human on the ground, gazed at her affectionately, and then led her away.

Handing over Kerrigan to Renault is the best outcome, so Qiao Lu didn't stop it, just watched the two leave, maybe their story would continue.

It's just that the mission of the Wandering Earth in the StarCraft plane has come to an end for the time being, and the Keystone has been successfully reassembled and activated, and then you can use the energy of the Keystone to travel to the next plane.

But there is no need to leave in such a hurry, there are actually two months before the mission deadline, during which the wandering earth can recuperate, and Qiao Lu also has work to complete before going to the next place.

In short, we can breathe a sigh of relief now and be glad that the Wandering Earth has once again survived the difficulties.

After Renault took away the Blade Queen Kerrigan, who had turned back into a human, Jolu received 8,000 civilization points as a reward for the agreed mission, and the keystones collected with the rangers were all owned by the Wandering Earth according to the agreement.

The only pity is that since all the insects have been reduced to dust by the power of the planetary engine: Nova Impact, leaving no wreckage behind, there is no loot left in this war to collect.

All the insects have been eradicated, the blockade of the dungeon has been lifted, and the people are back on the surface, rushing to rescue the wounded and start cleaning up the battlefield.

Most of the casualties occurred in the melee after the final barrier force field was breached, so most of the wounded were rescued, and many lives were saved by the medics on the battlefield.

It's just that sacrifice is inevitable, from time to time someone carries the remains of soldiers past Qiao Lu, some of them don't even leave their names, and they don't leave a complete corpse, and in the end they can only verify their identity through DNA testing.

The dead are like the dead, and the living must move on.

After paying homage to these unsung heroes, Qiao Lu set off for Shanghai Engine No. 1, no doubt to confirm Keystone's condition.

As the wandering earth began to rotate again, the light of dawn slowly shone on the vicissitudes of the earth, illuminating the scarred planetary engines on it.

Despite being scarred by the catastrophe, these massive planetary engines continued to operate, the result of the efforts of millions of rescue teams, not to mention the number of soldiers who shed their blood to protect them.

Qiao Lu came to the top of the Shanghai No. 1 engine, and saw the assembled and reactivated keystone in the morning light, suspended high on the top of the planetary engine, as if it had been integrated with it, and the flow of energy also changed from the original planetary engine to the keystone, and the energy that turned into the keystone was constantly injected into the planetary engine.

Ding Yi and the staff of the Central Academy of Sciences are meticulously maintaining this Sarnagar artifact, their work is far from over, the role of the keystone is not only to release a nova shock, there are more uses than yet to be discovered.

Qiao Lu stepped forward and asked, "Dr. Ding Yi, how is the condition of the Keystone?" ”

"It's good, everything is as we expected, the Keystone is fully synchronized with the Wandering Earth Quantum State, and then we can use its energy to travel to the next plane."

Hearing this answer, Qiao Lu was much more relieved, at least he didn't have to worry about the quantum crisis that would come in two months, and the wandering earth could recuperate.

Ding Yi continued, "In addition to this, we have also discovered other uses for keystones. For example, it is possible to open a door to other planes, enough for a space fleet or even the entire Earth to pass through, provided that we have the coordinates of those planes. ”

"You mean, we can teleport the Wandering Earth back to the plane we once visited?"

Qiao Lu immediately realized the value of this ability, and so far, the direction in which the Wandering Earth has kept in touch with the world it has experienced in the past is the embassy based on the planetary engine teleportation tower, which cannot allow a large number of troops to pass through at once, and only a frigate like the 10,000-year-old Blizzard can be teleported through the planetary engine.

Now with the interstellar gate opened by the Keystone, the Wandering Earth can freely travel back and forth to the plane it has been to, not only limited to the carrying capacity of the planetary engine transmission tower, but can drive the Wandering Earth back directly, which is quite a big difference.

For example, if you encounter an insect invasion like this time, if you encounter it again next time, you can make the Wandering Earth hide directly in other planes with the keystone. Unless the Queen of Blades still has the strength to break the dimensional wall, she won't be able to catch up at all.

"In addition, we also found a mysterious coordinate on the keystone, according to the information of the Mobius Foundation, it seems to lead to a place called Ulna, but the specific information is not even known to them."

Ulna, when he heard this name, Qiao Lu couldn't help but be startled.

Because this is the origin of life in the universe in the StarCraft plane, the temple that connects the void and the universe, and the burial place of those Salnagar who were killed by Aemon.

In the last part of the StarCraft trilogy, the Void Relic, the Astrals, the Insects, and the Humans used the Keystone to open the door to Urna and begin the final showdown with Aemon.

For the Wandering Earth, it is obviously not the time to go to the Void, let alone prepare for a decisive battle with Aemon.

Qiao Lu also told Ding Yi: "Regarding this place, let's not delve into it first. I'll find a way to figure out what this Urna is from the Star Spirits, and don't act rashly until then. ”

The story of the StarCraft plane is obviously not completely over, as long as the keystone is in the hands of the Wandering Earth, then the final decisive battle with Emon will inevitably involve the Wandering Earth, and it is probably impossible to stay out of it completely.

But that's also for the future, at least for now, Qiao Lu doesn't need to worry about it.
