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 didn't avoid the old man deliberately, opening the bag in front of him and taking out the Lego instead.

The thing he was trying to piece together this time wasn't complicated, so it didn't take long. Very quickly, he reached the final step and inserted the Infinite Building Block into it.

The next moment, a brand new drone appeared in his hand.

The drone took off under Zhang Heng's control, and under the old man's stunned gaze, he flew to the top of the maze. From there, he could clearly see the entire maze and see the changes in there. Zhang Heng silently calculated the time of each change, trying to plan a path from the middle to the center while factoring in his own speed into the maze.
