Earth.
Such a familiar yet distant term. During his first two months in the wasteland, Su Mo had dreamed several times of returning to Mystic City and his cozy little apartment. Prosperity. Safety. People yearned most for what they lacked. When it came to things easily obtained on Earth but impossibly out of reach in the wasteland, he was no different from any ordinary person.
Holding the flyer, his thoughts gradually drifted. They traveled across the boundless expanse of the wasteland, traversed the vast starry sky, and arrived in the dark at a pale blue planet.
