The dune city was hidden beneath layers of endless sand.
When Yue Yue first arrived in this place, she clearly remembered the spaceship had disappeared deep beneath the desert surface. Yet now, before her eyes, stretched a vast golden horizon glowing under a setting sun.
She still did not understand it.
Was this an underground world built with advanced interstellar technology? Or some kind of shifting illusion that projected sky and sunset above them?
Whatever it was…
It was breathtaking.
Golden sand rolled in soft waves like a quiet sea. Above, the sky shimmered faintly, almost too perfect, as if it were made from artificial light panels instead of clouds. Far away, tall structures blended subtly with the dunes.
The air was clean and warm.
This small city had barely a few hundred residents. Pollution was almost nonexistent. The wind carried only the faint scent of sand and dried flowers planted near the pathways.
And females were even fewer.
