High above, dark clouds obscured the full moon.
The outskirts of Jianghai City!
WHOOOO—
A sharp, piercing horn blast echoed, growing closer and closer.
It rang out from the thick, ancient city walls, echoing past glass skyscrapers, through remote alleys and bustling streets, until it resounded in everyone's ears.
"The Beast Tide is here!!!"
At the sound of the horn,
countless people stopped dead in their tracks.
The tradition of this horn call was a century old.
Twenty years had passed since it was last blown. The moment the horn sounded, it was a sign: the Beast Tide was about to attack!
The older generation looked on in terror, their hands beginning to tremble as old fears resurfaced in their minds.
In an instant,
the Jianghai City District erupted into chaos!
Cries, shouts, and curses mingled as cars sped down the roads. People were desperate to escape the outskirts, struggling to drive toward the safety of the city center.
