The flickering light of the flames froze at this moment, even the sound and heat wave that should have rapidly spread throughout disappeared.
He...
Was this a dream?
If he hadn't witnessed this scene with his own eyes, he would find it hard to believe that such an image could appear in real life.
Yes, the scene before his eyes was like a film being paused, as if someone had used a force outside of the movie world to pause the impending disaster at a specific instant.
Yet, time was still ticking away, minute by minute.
He was acutely aware of this. He could still control his own limbs and took a reflexive step back at the sound of the explosion.
Clearly, the epicenter of the explosion was only tens of meters away, but what he felt on his face was a cool breeze.
For some reason, he felt as if time was flowing unusually fast. Under the illumination of the flames, his senses became extraordinarily clear.
