"'Abyss Walker'... 'Walker'..."
Lin Yi's gaze fell on the final signature. He studied the crossed-out, distorted words "Abyss Walker," lost in thought...
"August, Year X000..."
In Lin Yi's memory, this was a sensitive point in time. The millennium held great significance... and the contents of this book were set at precisely that point in time.
The collision of these two periods gave him an unprecedented sense of absurdity and conflict.
That intense sense of conflict was like sitting down to a candlelit dinner behind a restaurant window and seeing a homeless man curled up on a dark street corner through the glass. Two utterly different worlds played out their stories simultaneously on opposite sides of the transparent glass...
"Either I've gone mad, or this world has..."
Lin Yi gritted his teeth, a faint doubt beginning to creep into his view of the world he inhabited.
Why did no one around me remember that "normal" world-except Liangzi and my roommates?
Why did the Boss, Li Huiyuan, and even these books all hint at a world connected to the supernatural?
Could my faulty memories have something to do with this?
'99...
That was it... '99!
The turning point for everything seemed to be '99!
After that incident in '99, everything changed!
As far as Lin Yi remembered, his understanding of the world seemed to have begun diverging from what the books recorded in '99!
Thinking about it carefully, why did it feel as though I'd stepped onto an abnormal timeline starting in '99?
No, that wasn't right. It should be the exact opposite!
Why did the entire world seem to have stepped onto an abnormal timeline after '99? And why was I like a remnant soul entangled in some timeline that no one else even knew about?
What was going on?
