Although she had known it for some time, An Xi still found it hard to comprehend when Captain Hui once again described the extent and size of this world.
Calling this world small did not seem right. The Southern Wasteland alone was unimaginably vast. Even with the help of technology, an ordinary person traveling at a normal speed would need countless generations to cross it.
