"The cycle of Yan'an time... do you know what's going on?"
Lann's surprise was written all over his face.
He had envisioned many scenarios, such as flipping through ancient tomes filled with tales of Ancient Gods, ultimately finding a clue about an Ancient God of 'time'.
Or perhaps, while he searched for the truth about the time loop, human worshippers of this Ancient God would come to him, urging him to stop this blasphemous act, then a bloody confrontation would ensue...
The one thing he never expected was—the answer would appear so easily!
"Ah, I know, I know, you are somewhat surprised now."
The old man spoke softly, calmly, without a ripple in his tone.
"The entity causing the time loop is a 'spider', and the web woven by the 'spider' can trap time, even making it flow backward. My student—Rom, he trusted me wholeheartedly, so I was able to help him become the 'spider' capable of trapping time."
