The long-silent combat frequency came alive with the excited voices of the Protectors: "Mr. Xi De!" An Yu looked up only to see a gallant figure cutting through the miasma, his wings spreading wide. Feathers of a flaming gold texture rustled loudly in the heat wave, pushing back the oncoming aberrant tide with powerful wingbeats and scorching the infected into ash. The firelight danced in those golden-red eyes, and Xi De smiled and said, "I’m here." Codename: Xi De ( omfg one of my favorite…-

"Among the Spire's high command, he’s actually the most childlike one," An Ning said, taking a sip of hot milk, his tone peaceful. The truth of things often contradicts their appearance.” Zhu Tao could only nod, kneading the dough in his hands over and over. He suddenly looked up, frowning. "Why are you talking like... this today?" An Ning raised his eyes. "Like what?" "Deep, comprehensive. Like someone," Zhu Tao pursed his lips. "Like Codex." An Ning laughed. "Probably because I lived with…

The aurora filled the sky once again. The halo poured down from the peak of the snow plains. Black feathers cut through the wind, gliding over the thousands of peaks and rivers of the Polar Region as the shifting aurora gathered within a pair of dark eyes. Bo stood on the mountainside with his wings folded, as solitary and lofty as a crane. He used to think the Polar Region was vast, but having flown over it so many times, he now felt it was narrow. It was too small; he had searched back and forth…

m1zushi: chapter title explanation: the novel's name can also be translated as the snowstorm awaits the returnee(s) bcs 人 can either mean person or people. the official english title (at least what's on the novel's official book cover is 'a hero lost in the snow' which is why i opted for the singular 'person' meaning (as in: the snowstorm awaits an yu's return). the same thing applies to this chapter but since we get more than one returnee i added the plural, but i also like the singular noun so i added…

That evening, the top floor of the Spire was lively for the first time in a long while. A snow-white tablecloth was spread over the long table, and An Ning smoothed out a table runner with golden patterns, placing classical and elegant candlesticks in a very ceremonial manner. The meal was simple: just bread and red wine. Zhao Ran, who had just finished a concert, curled up in his chair listlessly. "If I'd known we were eating this, I shouldn't have come at all." "The taste is very good," An Yu…

"Law is terrifyingly mild lately." "Tell me about it. His face and aura are the same as always, but the 'vibe' has shifted without a sound." The emergency "Post-Disaster New Life Group" occupied an entire floor of the former Black Tower office area. Former high-level officers had all become busy staff members, recording endless reports and making non-stop calls, only finding time to chat during coffee breaks. "My dorm mate says the shift is because he suddenly started doing a lot of 'ordinary…

"He cannot see the smallness of the ants. He fell by chance, shattered, slept, reunited, and departed. Never did He bestow a single glance upon the ants. Therefore, God does not love man. Only man will love man." As the final line of poetry fell, the church bells happened to toll. The sound sliced through the biting air of late winter and early spring, drifting over the human Main City and echoing long across the world. This was the first toll, the Bell of Farewell. Humankind drove a…

The time in the Winter Solstice of 2138 was too far back, so he looked further forward. When he opened his eyes again, An Yu was hit by a harsh glare from the sun overhead. A narrow, cramped courtyard, filled with the stench of rot. Even the bright sunlight overhead carried an air of being half-dead. The strange yet familiar slums. His arm was suddenly bumped into. He snapped out of it and realized Ling Qiu was sitting beside him behind the railing. "What are you dazing for? Didn't you just…

When he opened his eyes again, he was still in a corridor. This corridor looked like the outside of a Brain laboratory, thousands of miles away from the orphanage. The ability of spacetime travel was exceptionally difficult to master; he still struggled to accurately locate the place he wanted to go. An Yu was about to leave when his gaze suddenly caught the calendar on the wall. Winter Solstice, 2138. His consciousness, which was about to withdraw, suddenly paused. Winter Solstice 2138, Qin Zhilu…

Yellow sand shrouded everything. The silent wasteland looked as if it had been split down the middle by a giant axe, forming a narrow and deep gully. Dead creatures had turned into terra-cotta figures here, as the earth continuously churned corpses into itself. Tall human figures stood along both walls of the gully, stretching as far as the eye could see. Tang Feng stood at the edge of the cliff, saying somewhat apologetically, "Whenever someone intrudes, these figures fall one by one in succession.…
