"Controlled by someone?" Su Qing covered her mouth in disbelief, resembling a frightened deer as she helplessly hid behind Lin Yu. "Who is controlling us? Why?"
Lin Yu furrowed his brows, a storm of emotions brewing within him. He firmly pressed on Su Qing's shoulders to reassure her, but his gaze shot sharply towards the mysterious figure. "What do you mean by that? Speak clearly!"
"You are in a meticulously woven giant Time Loop," the mysterious figure turned around, their face obscured beneath the cloak, but their tone was gravely serious. "Your life trajectories, your memories, even your destinies have been artificially altered."
"Time Loop..." Lin Yu murmured, a mix of emotions swirling in his heart. He recalled the repetitive experiences day after day, the excruciating pain at the start of each cycle. Could it be that all of this was the result of manipulation?
"And I," the mysterious figure paused, their voice becoming deep and powerful, "am the key to breaking this loop."
"You?" Lin Yu narrowed his eyes skeptically. "Why would you help us?"
"Because I need your help." The mysterious figure did not directly answer Lin Yu's question but walked over to a bookshelf and pulled out a thick ancient tome. "I guided you to find this book to awaken your true memories. Lin Yu, you are not an ordinary person; you possess the powerful ability to break the loop."
Lin Yu's heart jolted. He instinctively clenched his fists, confusion and bewilderment filling his eyes. Did he really have the power to break the loop? It sounded too unbelievable.
At that moment, the mysterious figure turned their gaze towards Su Qing, a strange light flashing in their eyes. "Su Qing, you also harbor incredible power. Only when Lin Yu awakens your strength can you truly join forces to break the loop."
"Me?" Su Qing pointed at herself, even more bewildered. "How could I have power? I'm just an ordinary girl..."
"No, you are not ordinary; your existence is crucial." The mysterious figure spoke with unwavering conviction. "Believe me, only by working together can you shatter the conspiracy of the puppet master and save yourselves—and this world."
"Wait," Lin Yu, who had been silent, suddenly spoke, staring into the mysterious person's deep eyes. "You haven't told us who the mastermind is. Why is he doing this?"
Just as the mysterious person was about to respond, the entire room began to shake violently. Books fell from the shelves, and the ground started to crack, as if the apocalypse had arrived.
"This is bad!" The mysterious person's expression changed dramatically. "He's coming!"
Before the words were fully out, a man in a black suit appeared in the center of the room. He was tall and handsome, but exuded a chilling pressure.
"You are..." When Lin Yu recognized the man's face, his pupils constricted suddenly, and he exclaimed in disbelief, "Uncle Wang?!"
This man was none other than Lin Yu's most trusted person, his father's close friend, Uncle Wang, who had watched Lin Yu grow up!
Uncle Wang ignored Lin Yu's shock. A cold smile curved his lips as his gaze swept over Lin Yu and Su Qing, finally landing on the mysterious person. His voice was like that from the depths of hell. "You dare to betray me?"
"I have never been loyal to you," the mysterious person scoffed, emanating a powerful aura. "Your ambition is too terrifying; I will not allow you to continue down this path!"
"Then die!" Uncle Wang roared, his figure transforming into a bolt of lightning as he lunged at the mysterious person.
A great battle was about to erupt!
