   I recommend this suspenseful mystery novel. It features a deep plot and is a favorite among readers of works like *Edge of Tomorrow*, *The Butterfly Effect*, *Inception*, *The Mist*, and *Source Code*. The novel is full of suspense, twists, and turns, with interconnected events and intricate plots. Foreshadowing is plentiful, and plot holes are cleverly filled and resolved. Many details are only apparent later in the story, making for a truly exhilarating read. The protagonist, Zhang Haoran, is incredibly funny. He often solves problems with ingenuity, and the plot is cleverly conceived. The time-travel elements are significant enough to rewrite the future, and the protagonist grows with each experience, making him a truly relatable and evolving character.

    "Impossible! You're delusional!" "As long as I live, I will never allow such a thing to happen." With that, the city lord immediately raised the great seal in his hand and shouted, "In the name of the city lord of Anlan City, I proclaim to the heavens..." "Ah..." Before the city lord could finish speaking, the hand holding the great seal was suddenly bitten by the gaping maw of the little boy in his arms, who had already transformed into a beastman. A scream rang out, and the seal slipped from his hand, falling to the ground. The six-year-old boy, who originally didn't possess much strength, had become incredibly powerful after transforming into a beastman, with an astonishing bite force. He had bitten off a large chunk of flesh from the city lord's arm. Despite the excruciating pain, the city lord still couldn't bring himself to kill the little boy. He simply used his other hand to grab the little boy's neck and pinned him to the ground. Seeing that the time was ripe, the Black Cult orc on the rooftop vanished instantly. The massive, bucket-sized lightning bolt that had been about to solidify in the sky disappeared swiftly because the seal had slipped from the city lord's hand, and because the city lord hadn't finished reciting his judgment. Just as the city lord was stepping on the body of the boy who had transformed into a thin man, trying to pick up the fallen seal, the Black Cult orc suddenly appeared beside him, swiftly reaching out and grabbing the seal. He even kicked the city lord away. The boy, now thin and frail, became even more brutal and bloodthirsty without the city lord's restraint. The Black Cult orc glanced at the city lord, who had been kicked and was now on the ground, completely incapacitated and unable to get up. Seeing this, the Black Cult orc sneered and, controlling the boy, charged towards the city lord in the distance. Seeing the little boy charging towards him, the city lord struggled to his feet and run, but the boy was incredibly fast, reaching him in an instant. With a powerful leap, the boy pounced on the city lord, opening his blood-red maw to tear at his flesh. Unable to escape, the city lord fought back, using his other intact arm to precisely grab the boy's neck again, slamming him to the ground. He tightened his grip on the boy's neck. The boy, now a beastman, had lost all consciousness, driven only by instinctive bloodlust. Knowing there was no escape, the city lord twisted his hand forcefully, snapping the boy's neck instantly. However, the Black Cult beastman was already beside him. Exhausted from killing the beastman, the city lord was powerless to resist. Lying on the ground, panting heavily, he allowed the Black Cult beastman to stomp on his chest. The city lord could clearly feel the poison spreading to his heart, especially after being bitten by the beastman. He would likely die of poisoning in a few minutes. The Black Cult orc, holding the seal, looked at the dying city lord and laughed wildly, "Hahaha…" "You, surnamed Zhao, I've let you be the city lord for thirty years. Tonight, I'll make you pay back everything, with interest!" "I know you have a son. Don't worry, I'll reunite your family. Now the city lord's seal is in my hands; my long-cherished wish can finally be fulfilled." "It's just a pity you'll die soon, never to see the demonic beast army storm into the city, devouring all the people who have turned into orcs, and the others who haven't." "However, don't worry, I'll let your son see it with his own eyes. Perhaps he'll tell you clearly from below how the Anlan City and its people, which you've protected for thirty years, were trampled and devoured by the demonic beast army." "Hahaha… uh!" However, just as the Black Cult orc was laughing wildly, a bloody gash suddenly appeared on his neck, his laughter abruptly stopped, and his head fell to the ground. Seeing the black-robed orc's head severed by his sword, Wuming walked to the still-standing headless corpse and took the seal from its hand. Wuming hadn't found this place before, but the orc's laughter was too loud and unpleasant, so he used his lightness skill to quickly arrive. Seeing that even the city lord had been defeated by the black-robed orc, Wuming knew he couldn't fight him head-on; a direct confrontation was too risky, and if the orc escaped, the revenge would be even more fierce. Therefore, he expended a sliver of his source power to conceal his aura so the orc wouldn't detect him. Just as the black-robed orc burst into laughter, Wuming silently appeared behind him and beheaded him with a single sword stroke. Holding the seal, Wuming hurriedly knelt beside the barely alive city lord and asked, "City Lord, how are you?" Seeing Wuming retrieve the seal, the city lord was deeply gratified. He had hoped to witness Wuming's wedding to his daughter, but now it seemed that wouldn't be possible. So he reached out and grabbed Wuming's arm, saying, "Wuming, I'm poisoned and won't live much longer." "Since you have the ability to kill this Black Cult orc, it means you can also protect Anlan City. I entrust Anlan City and my precious daughter to you." "Promise me, you must... Protect all the people of the city well, and never let the Black Cult orc's plot succeed. Also... Take good care of my daughter, please!" Saying this, the city lord relaxed his body, his head touching the ground, gazing at the starry sky as if he saw Wuming and his daughter's wedding scene. But just as he smiled, wanting to close his eyes and leave peacefully, *slap!* Wuming slapped him hard across the face. The city lord was instantly jolted awake, staring blankly at Wuming. Wuming said, "What are you doing?" "I didn't say I couldn't save you. Want to die and end it all by leaving everything to me? Keep dreaming." Saying this, Wuming expended a portion of his primordial power, transforming it into pure life force and injecting it into the city lord's heart. A palm strike landed on the city lord's heart, and as if a spring had been installed in his back, the city lord's body instantly sprang more than two meters into the air, only to stop abruptly mid-air. Wuming also rose, leaping onto the city lord's back and infusing his heart with pure life force. With this pure life force, the poison that had already eroded half the heart suddenly seemed to encounter something terrifying, rapidly retreating. The pure life force, like a fearless army, charged towards the receding poison, forcing it all the way to the city lord's hands and feet. Due to the excessive amount of poison, the city lord's hands and feet immediately swelled to sizes larger than bear paws, even bursting his shoes. His original skin color quickly turned black. Hearing the sound of his shoes bursting, Wuming turned around and saw the swollen feet, realizing the poison had been forced from his body to his feet. Looking at the city lord's hands, he saw the same swelling. He then flipped down and landed on the ground, pulling out the sword stuck in the ground and slashing the city lord's swollen hands and feet. Instantly, it was as if a major artery had been severed. Gushes of black, poisonous blood gushed from the wounds, a truly spectacular sight. The black, poisonous blood that landed on the ground corroded a half-meter-wide pit in the blink of an eye. This pit continued to corrode deeper into the ground. Wuming then expended a sliver of his primal power, aiming a seven-colored beam of light from his palm at the corroded pit. Gradually, at a speed visible to the naked eye, the black, poisonous blood in the pit was evaporated by his primal power. After all the black, poisonous blood had gushed out of the city lord's hands and feet, he landed the city lord on the ground. By this time, the black, poisonous blood had been completely evaporated by his primal power, and the original black pit had returned to its normal color. Having expended a great deal of his primal power, Wuming felt extremely weak, but he still managed to call out to the still-shocked city lord. "Stop playing dead, get up!" He handed the seal back to the city lord, placing it on his chest, and said, "The crisis in Anlan City is not over yet. All the people are waiting for you to save them. Get up!" He then collapsed to the ground, weakly seeing a group of soldiers rushing towards them. By the moonlight, he could see that Elder Liu and Zhao Ying were running at the front. Since the main force had arrived, there was nothing more for him to do.

When the law is silent, schools cover up wrongdoing, and the world is indifferent, he, in the name of God, judges all sins.
