In the blink of an eye, a sudden twist in the flow of time takes Li Yi back ten years, to the afternoon the apocalypse began. Was it the universe showing mercy, or a new trial? He can’t help but wonder if it’s truly necessary to face that cruel, frigid world once again.
Li Yi stands on a desolate street, leaning against a crumbling wall, his eyes narrowed slightly as though trying to reach through time and touch memories long gone. He takes a deep breath, then steps forward with resolve, ready to face this unknown apocalypse once more.
He looks up at the sky. The sun hangs overhead just as it did before, but that tranquil blue is gone. The tangled clouds seem to speak of the ravages of time, and his resolve grows ever stronger. For the companions who once fought shoulder to shoulder with him, and for the lover who never left his side, he has decided that he must persevere.
Li Yi sets off along streets both familiar and strange. The once-prosperous city has become a wasteland. As he walks past the bustling markets of old, he remembers how everyone desperately searched for food and water in the early days of the apocalypse. The feeling of standing together through life and death wells up in him once more.
A glint of determination flashes in his eyes. Why did countless fate wheels appear out of nothing? Why did legions of warriors from deadly realms descend from the skies, tearing apart the peace of this beautiful planet and turning it into a death-filled wasteland?
And so he strides forward, continuing his journey. In this world shrouded in silence, his expression is resolute, his steps firm, and his eyes shine with a hunger to survive and a desire to explore the unknown. Among the ruins, he has become a beacon of hope, a force that will never die out.
