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.

48 Hours a Day

If Zhang Heng had encountered this huge wave before his trip to the island, he probably wouldn't have had any other choice but to retreat. However, now that he had grasped the basics of controlling the water flow, he could still handle this small situation, although he might not be as powerful as the deepwater overlords like Jemengard.

Zhang Heng used his ability to control water to split the wave into two, brushing past his body and hitting the trees and plants behind him. In the end, the flowers that had been blooming were all destroyed by the oncoming wave. However, Zhang Heng, who was standing in front, was safe and sound.

The black python was obviously surprised as well. Although it didn't seem to understand how the human before it could separate the wave, that didn't stop it from doing what it was about to do next.
