Your World Is About to Be Destroyed

I opened the note and took a look.

Sure enough, that line of text was written above.

The arts and literature committee member wanted to invite him out for dinner after school.

Lin Tan yawned but did not respond.

Finally, get out of class ended.

Lin Tan put his hands in his pockets and swaggered toward the back door.

The arts and literature committee member didn't even have time to catch up before he quickly went downstairs and out of the school gate.

"What should I do today? Let's go earn some money; the money I won yesterday is all gone again."

Lin Tan slowly walked out of the school.

Across the street stood a man with a distinctive air about him. He wore a black mask, and the wide hood of his mask covered the upper half of his face.

He was dressed very casually, just ordinary clothes.

But for some reason, this person had a special aura that set him apart from the other pedestrians. Even though he was standing in the crowd, he couldn't blend in at all.

Lin Tan walked towards him, because he had to cross the road, but the closer he got to the person, the slower Lin Tan's pace gradually slowed down.

What happened?

That person is so strange.

Is he waiting for someone? Who is he waiting for?

Why do I feel like that person is looking at me?

Lin Tan had a strange premonition that the person was definitely not an ordinary person.

However, this premonition came too strangely.

Finally, relying on his special ability to Time Stop, Lin Tan quickened his pace again, moving towards the other side at a moderate pace.

He crossed the road.

I'm getting closer and closer to that person.

Lin Tan clenched his fists in his pockets, then brushed past the man.

Nothing happened.

Lin Tan's tense body slowly relaxed. What? Was it just his imagination?

Just as the two were back to back, about a meter apart.

Lin Tan suddenly heard a voice behind him. "Stop using that ability."

What?

Lin Tan's body stiffened.

He turned around abruptly, but the person behind him had already disappeared; only a car slowly drove by.

Lin Tan felt that everything was inexplicable—the strange person who suddenly appeared, the strange words he suddenly said to him.

What do you mean by "stop using his abilities"?

Did the other party know that he possessed special abilities?

When Lin Tan stepped into an underground casino, the staff at the entrance greeted him respectfully.

He's been here a few times, and everyone here knows him.

"Young Master Lin, what are you planning to do today?"

Lin Tan had originally planned to earn some pocket money, but after standing in front of the card table, that sentence flashed through his mind again.

He had originally planned to use his ability, but suddenly gave up.

"Forget it, I'm not playing today, I'll just watch."

"Alright, Young Master Lin, this way please, have a seat."

What's the deal with that strange guy?

Lin Tan was still thinking about the man she had met earlier.

Forget it, let him try and see. Why can't he use his abilities?

Lin Tan chose to Time Rewind; he planned to go back to the time when he met that mysterious man and ask him directly.

The person who was playing tricks probably didn't expect him to have this up his sleeve, right?

Ha ha...

Hmm? That's strange...

Lin Tan used the Time Rewind again.

The casino employee who had been standing guard next to him gave him a fawning smile.

Why is he still here?

I'm going back!

I'll go back!

His special abilities seemed to be nonexistent, showing no reaction whatsoever. He remained seated in the casino, not only did time not rewind, but it didn't even go back a few tens of minutes.

His pupils began to dilate.

What happened? Why did his ability stop working?

He immediately summoned the system he had acquired, but no matter how much he called out to it in his mind, the system remained silent and did not respond to him at all.

"System! What's going on? Why can't I use Time Rewind? Talk to me, system!"

Lin Tan's face turned anxious and uneasy.

His life changed after he acquired this system, and he relied on these two special abilities.

Now, he can't imagine what would happen to him if he lost these two abilities.

He couldn't accept this possibility.

"Young Master Lin? What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell? Should we call a doctor...?"

Lin Tan clutched his heart, breathing rapidly. No, he couldn't lose this strength.

Otherwise... he would return to that dark and Hopeless daily life of the past, and those he violently suppressed would only retaliate against him tenfold once they discovered that he had lost that power.

No... absolutely not...

Lin Tan suddenly stood up and shoved the waiter next to him. He ran out of the casino and headed towards the street where he had encountered the man.

That man... his abilities have been malfunctioning ever since he met that man.

It must be that person's problem.

He must find the other person and get the truth out of them.

Where is that person?!

Lin Tan ran to that intersection.

But the place was deserted.

Lin Tan could only stop and catch his breath. He must have been too nervous just now. Besides, if there was no Time Rewind, wasn't there at least Time Stop?

Time Stop, and you lose the ability to Time Rewind, at most you can't go back in time, and you lose the possibility of further trial and error.

He still possesses power.

Lin Tan summoned the system again, attempting to use the Time Stop ability.

Is this your power?

A familiar voice suddenly came from behind Lin Tan.

It's that man...

He turned around abruptly and saw the person standing behind him, looking at him curiously.

"It's no use, you can't use those powers anymore."

Lin Tan tried again and found that, just as the other party had said, he couldn't use either Time Rewind or Time Stop.

He was terrified. "Was it you? What did you do to me?! Why can't I use these abilities?"

Shen Yu observed the strange creature inside Lin Tan's body.

It is lurking in Lin Tan's brain, constantly drawing upon the essence of this world through Lin Tan's body.

The so-called "Time Stop and Time Rewind" is nothing more than a means by which this strange creature devours the energy of this world.

"The ability to control time is bizarre? This level of power has already reached the Doomfate Class."

"What strangeness? What Doomfate Class? What are you talking about?" Lin Tan was terrified.

This unfamiliar person, whose voice sounded very young, was speaking words he couldn't understand at all.

But Lin Tan instinctively felt that these words were related to him. "What exactly are you talking about?"

"Alright, I have a question for you: how long ago did you obtain this power?" Shen Yu asked.

Lin Tan replied, "One month ago."

"One month? It devoured almost all of a world's essence in just one month. That's quite impressive."

Shen Yu then uttered some chilling words that he couldn't understand.

Before Lin Tan could ask another question...

Shen Yu then said to him, "I regret to inform you that your world is about to be destroyed."
