Growing up with eccentric materialistic parents who left him in the care of his grandfather for a job overseas, Zhang Heng had learned to adapt and be unfettered by the oddities and challenges in life. But he would soon learn the baffling truth about the world he thought he knew when one day at midnight time froze and he found himself in a world so quiet and still it was deafening. That night, he discovered that he had 24 hours more than everybody else and thus, marked the beginning of his adventures. The mysteries surrounding his newfound ability only deepened when a strange old man claimed to have given Zhang Heng that ‘gift of time’ and recruited the young man to participate in a cryptic ‘life-changing’ game on his behalf. Little did Zhang Heng know that accepting those terms meant embroiling himself in many versions of reality and exposing himself to the hidden secrets of the world—a decision he could never undo.

Zhang Heng's two shots impacted them somewhat. At least it slowed their advance. They were clearly not used to losing their commanders, and although they were still charging at Zhang Heng, they could not help but slow down.

This was a logical thing for them to do. Although monsters, these were no brainless zombies. They witnessed the way Zhang Heng had massacred their companions. With the bodies of the sacrifices lying beside them, hearing the farmers wailing on the ground, they would naturally worry about their safety.

As for the monsters led by the third sacrifice, Zhang Heng was not too bothered because they were still far away. After firing at his target, he put the rifle back into his backpack and left the two farmhouses.

Zhang Heng did not rendezvous with Fabericotte immediately. Instead, he went around the area to make sure that he had gotten rid of all the monsters behind him before heading off.
