The tremor effect dissipated, and the gray fog rolled back in, swiftly veiling that mechanical zombie army as though nothing had happened.
But at that moment, a Stellar Imprint suddenly manifested of its own accord. The mission that Zhang Yang, as an Apprentice Time Guardian, had to carry out once every ten thousand years had been activated.
The mission was random, and the guardian closest to the activation area would complete it. Of course, the mission was not mandatory, but once he chose to refuse, anywhere from one minute to one hour would be deducted from his time.
At that moment, Zhang Yang could only suffer inwardly, yet he had to inspect the mission details immediately. After all, he had already spent twenty-four minutes and twenty-four seconds. How could he dare refuse now?
Within the Stellar Imprint, a speck of starlight sank into Zhang Yang's brow, and countless pieces of information unfolded.
"Nature: Meteor-Level Guardian Mission."
"Mission Issuer: The River of Time and the fundamental rules forming the framework of the Six Great Sequences."
"Mission Details: One second ago, an unknown target used the forbidden technique of Time Reversal within the world of the Thousand-Handed Race, creating the criminal fact of five minutes of Time Reversal at the coordinates below. Please repair the consequences caused by this Time Reversal as fully as possible and punish the criminal who damaged the River of Time."
"Requirements for Accepting the Mission: Time Guardians and Apprentice Time Guardians may accept it."
"Please decide whether to accept this mission within sixty minutes. Otherwise, the mission will automatically be passed to another Time Guardian nearest to the mission's activation site."
"Basic Mission Reward: 30 seconds. Standard: Repair the consequences caused by the Time Reversal."
"Special Mission Reward: Destroy everything belonging to the criminal. Reward undetermined."
