Synopsis

The chapter dives into the motivations of the underground civilization, who claim they're acting in response to Earth's suffering and human overpopulation, positioning themselves as wronged aggressors instead of villains. This revelation escalates into a clash with Minghe, as well as another person whose identity is debated by the rest of the characters, where a character known as Lou is seemingly being controlled. The chapter emphasizes how those who survive this confrontation will control the prevailing narrative and truth.
