Murong Qiushui remembered how she had become pregnant inside a Secret Realm, given birth to a child, and abandoned him in the World of Ice and Snow. After a Simulation World revealed that she herself had once survived by being born through another woman, she realized her child had likely used her womb in the same way and that he was truly her son.

• Murong Qiushui recalled entering a Secret Realm as a girl, becoming mysteriously pregnant, and giving birth to a child she abandoned in the World of Ice and Snow.

After Sequence Nine’s destruction, a powerful wave of kin races was expected to reach Ancient God Star in about a week, while Chu State University was left to defend its Star Chain without reinforcements.

• Wang Pan received secret knowledge from his Simulation Mark and learned the Star Chains’ purpose, the Main World’s falling energy level, and the history of its conflict with the kin races.

• Jiang Tao and Hua Qin explained that Chu Prefecture and several nearby prefectures had been abandoned, and that the university’s leaders had refused evacuation to protect their people.

Chu State University’s purge of the World Destruction Society in Chongshan City left the city devastated, but its leader suspected the society’s strongest members had escaped. In Tu City, four hidden World Destruction Society figures encountered patrolling students, and one student’s boast was followed by the surrounding space shattering.

• Chu State University and other Simulators killed more than a hundred thousand World Destruction Society Members in Chongshan City over three days, while more than a million ordinary people died and over a thousand Simulators were killed or injured.

Underground, Chu State University’s defenders activated their grand array against the kin, but an Eighth Tier Humanoid Kin overwhelmed Jiang Tao; aboveground, Wang Pan faced four people and a sheep approaching the university.
