The dream seemed to be a continuation of the one before, in which she became Li Weize again, and through his perspective, endured eight years more terrifying than the apocalypse —

He was held captive for eight full years, all the muscles in his hands and feet completely atrophied, and both his mind and body were on the brink of collapse.

Nourished by fresh blood, the vine grew wildly, quickly encircling the entire base, and destroyed countless experimental specimens.
