"Hehe..." Lan Che lazily turned a page of the book in his hand, raised his head, closed his eyes, faced the window, and smiled as if he were basking in the sunlight.
The outside world seemed to have frozen in time, with everything from the swimming mermaids to the rippling seawater appearing lifelike and still.
Without anyone noticing, one after another, sea monsters with tentacles, bluish-gray skin, bulging eyes, and heads that drooped down to the back of their necks, silently appeared. Each of them was two or three times the size of a mermaid, and the mermaids looked like little children in their presence. The sea monsters darted swiftly among the mermaids, but none of them noticed them.
The frozen mermaid and the still-moving sea monster create a stark and strange contrast.
Lan Che's already pale face turned even paler, even tinged with a bluish tinge, as he spoke softly.
"Revenge... it has already begun."

It's as if a portion of their lives has been stolen.
"Cough...cough..." Lan Che coughed lightly twice, and a little blood splattered out, which he wiped away without a care.
He sat quietly in the room, listening to the sounds of battle outside, a peaceful and harmless smile on his face. The soft light in the study illuminated his pure and innocent face, making him look like an angel.
The surviving mermaids took up arms, some with cold weapons and others with various modern weapons, and the sounds of gunfire and clashing metal echoed throughout the city.
In the eastern district, in the city where the headquarters was located, war suddenly broke out in an instant.
