Lu Li overlooked the swamp below.
The elliptical, deep yellow world buried in the black earth was like an embryo, as if nurturing life.
Exploring along the eggshell-like edge of the swamp, it enveloped the Midnight City above and the Midnight City Main Station below. Gazing at the swamp, it seemed possible to glimpse the trapped beings within the dim eggshell.
What do these trapped lives represent, the nutrients within the embryo?
Regardless, those who once refused to ally must now face the swamp.
The thin membrane outside the swamp obstructs communication and prevents escape; Lu Li didn't check if entering was still possible, because he couldn't do it yet.
The power left outside is greater than recklessly rushing in.
"Only the strange can fight the strange."
The whispering of the Eternal Dreamer sitting by the window echoed in his ears.
"Go to Dark Star City; you will find the answer there."
A subterranean city built by the bizarre and connected to the old sewer mainline.
