Light Fortress

The Spirit Network, known as【Deep Sea】 connected five continents as human civilization surged forward; yet, they were oblivious to the impending eternal night. With the Extraordinary Awakening, the edifice was about to collapse. Flesh is weak and pitiful, how could one ascend? The story began when Gu Shen, an ordinary youth, received a ruler that bore the truth. He peeled back the corner of this extraordinary world, becoming the largest moth among the thousands that dashed into the flames. If winter is coming, I will climb against the steps, overturn the thrones of kings, shatter the crowns of falsehood, destroy the scepters of injustice. I will become humanity's last, Bright Barrier.

"You're too kind," Gu Shen quickly shook his head: "I've always wanted to come here to read, so it didn't feel like a long time at all."

Cui Zhongcheng glanced at the books beside Gu Shen.

His own reading pace was slow, whereas Gu Shen was the exact opposite; he had already finished two books since sitting down across from him.
