Chapter 429 - 287: Before the End of the Competition (Part 3)
Malin felt a headache coming on—he had just been chatting with Faye when abruptly, a wave of sleepiness overcame him, and the next thing he knew, he woke up sitting on a bench by this street.
A strange city in ruins, twilight, deserted.
Standing up, Malin walked down the street, and in areas where buildings were relatively intact, he keenly observed—these areas formed an arc, and he was inside the arc.
Malin carefully walked a few dozen meters further inside and saw the melted streets, the twisted, deformed rubble... This must have been the world after a nuclear war, the era of the Great Destruction, where the creators of this planet finally annihilated each other.
How pitiful for the innocents of this entire planet.
Looking at the tiny shadow on the wall, Malin sighed inwardly.
Then, he heard the sound of pebbles rolling. Turning his head, Malin saw a naked, emaciated yet potbellied... humanoid creature.
It could no longer be called human; its body had no hair, its hideous shell was covered with broken skin, revealing the flesh underneath.
Malin stood right in front of it, but the pitiable creature carried on as if it hadn’t noticed Malin at all, sniffing around and gradually moving further away from him, using its hands and feet.
Malin reached out his hand and found it passed through the twisted streetlamp.
