Chapter 460: Secrecy Power
In the hotel, Ashe opened his eyes, feeling a chill down his back and an icy sensation on his arm—the dampness of the underground floor was indeed heavy.

“Of course, the main city didn’t crash directly, or they would have been pulverized as well. The main city eventually hovered tens of meters above ground, and when we looked up, we could see this astonishing inverted city, filled with shining orange sunflowers; the Garden was aptly named.
