One minute, two minutes, three minutes…
Time passed second by second, yet the scenery before the citizens' eyes didn't change at all. It was just like before; there was no sign of a passage to a Different Space, not even a shadow.

Number 38 felt unusually perplexed. He often opened this valve to the Black Hole Clan's settlement. As long as the equipment was fully charged, once the valve opened, the passage would appear in less than ten seconds.
But now, five minutes had passed, and there was still no sign of the passage opening. This was way too unreasonable, wasn't it?
However, even if he found it strange, Number 38 couldn't reveal this to the citizens of South City. There were simply too many people, and even a slight commotion could cause unrest. With so many people, if chaos erupted, the casualties would be incalculable!
