“If the ending is already set in stone, are you defying fate or bringing it to pass?”
When Lu Yan opened his eyes, he was clutching a bloodstained note, his fingernails dug deep into his palm. It bore just one sentence, written in his own hand:
“Stay away from the person named Qi Xia until you kill ‘Cause and Effect.’”
A “precision analyst” accustomed to spotting tiny certainties amid chaotic market fluctuations, Lu Yan found himself trapped in a desperate prison known as the “Land of the End.” Here, everyone’s “Echo” is a bargaining chip for survival, but Lu Yan’s ability is a taboo that the System cannot classify: [Causal Collapse].
The world in his eyes isn’t made of solid things, but of countless chains of cause and effect. He can see the logical flaws behind every death game and predict the inevitable course of every slaughter. But he soon discovers, to his horror, that this isn’t his first time here. Every seemingly thrilling “solution” is actually a “foreshadowing” he planted himself during the 3,600 failed loops before this one.
With logic as a weapon and time as a closed loop, Lu Yan must pull off an astonishing con spanning thousands of cycles under the watchful eyes of “Heaven” and the “Zodiac.”
In these ten days at the end of the world, he doesn’t intend to escape hell. He intends to rewrite its algorithm.
