No one knows how the sea monsters discovered us.

All we know is that they came swiftly, plundered, and then were attracted away by mutated squids.

More than half of the entire underground shelter collapsed, and the number of dead humans reached over fifty.

But those who survived, including the severely injured, were less than fifty.

I pounded Li Nuo with all my strength, finally letting him breathe and his heartbeat recover, but he still didn't wake up.

I took him, along with other survivors, hiding together in a secluded and dark room.

Groans, cries, and continuous cries of despair filled our ears.

The smell of blood, the stench of sea monsters, and the decay underground filled our nostrils.

Li Nuo was hanging on by a thread, his body burning hot.

I exchanged two years of my lifespan with the system for a wound-healing medicine, but it couldn't provide me with anything else anymore.

It said I didn't have much life left!

And my last hope lies with Xu Fu.

As long as he changes the past, the future will change along with it!

I can continue to live.

Li Nuo and the others can continue to live as well.

The live broadcast prompt from Xu Fu finally rang out in the late night.

I entrusted Li Nuo to our neighbor, a kind and uninjured aunt.

Then I wiped the blood off my face, found a quiet room, and tried to calm down before answering the call.

Xu Fu changed into a bright outfit made of an indescribable material, still accompanied by the two child attendants.

He looked at me with some doubt and fear, even taking a step back: "Immortal Lord?"

Only then did I realize that I wasn't wearing a hood.

My face, which had mutated due to nuclear contamination, bald and mostly rotten, was completely exposed.

It formed a stark contrast with their smooth and silky appearance.

Fortunately, Xu Fu realized it and bowed to me:

"Immortal Lord, I have reported to His Majesty about your proposal to declare war on the island nation. However, His Majesty still wishes to... to gaze upon the appearance of the Immortal Lord..."

I understood that Xu Fu was saying that Qin Shi Huang wanted to see me.

I suddenly burst into laughter, for some reason. After just experiencing life and death, broadcasting to Xu Fu at this moment, there was suddenly an instinctive sense of absurdity.

And when I thought about meeting Qin Shi Huang, it felt even more ridiculous!

Perhaps living underground in an apocalyptic world for too long, I haven't seen vitality since the day I was born.

Once vitality is presented before my eyes, I instinctively feel lost!

"Immortal Lord?" Xu Fu urged me.

I grabbed the hood that had fallen nearby, covered my broken face, and tightly held the two damaged playing cards in my pocket:

"Alright!"
