Forever City basked under a cloudless sky, as if peace still reigned.
But the air was heavy with an eerie tension. It felt as though the city had been severed from the rest of Infinite Dimensions.
No birds chirped. No insects buzzed. Even the monsters that usually roamed the maps had vanished without a trace.
Dozens of players on flying beasts circled the outskirts, broadcasting live as on-the-scene war correspondents, risking everything.
"What's going on? The full-scale assault timer's done. Where's the action?"
"Strange. That guy who got insta-killed said he saw Archangel Jenonis and Snow Dream... so where'd they go?"
The reporters passed information between one another, but the silence remained deafening.
Everyone knew—unnatural quiet was the sign of something very wrong.
Viewers in front of their holoscreens broke into cold sweats. The complete stillness within Forever City made it feel more like a tomb than a city.
Was the battle still happening or not?
