Chen Zhenghao finally felt fear. He grabbed his phone and dialed 120, but the line gave him the same mocking busy tone. Two minutes, three—nothing. His chest tightened. Outside was a frozen grave; many hospitals had shut down. Even if one remained open, no ambulance could claw through the snow mountains to reach him. He stared at his leg and decided—if no help would come, he'd have to help himself. He staggered back to his apartment, hands slick with cold and panic. He rummaged drawers for a…-

The call connected and a flood of curses came down the line like a thunderclap. "You're courting death, kid. Who gave you the right to mention me?" Chen Zhenghao barked. "You want trouble? I'll make sure you can't set foot in this city again." Chen's voice was all menace and grease—threat as ritual. Word of him had always bent the block's spine: gangs, blunt force, rumors no one dared check. Mention his name and people went quiet. Zhang Yi smiled into the empty room and let the insult land. He'd…-

Zhang Yi was bored. The chat was a theater; he decided to be the playwright. Aunt Lin barked orders again. Zhang rolled his eyes and typed: "Aunt Lin, if this is really for everyone, why didn't you tag the people who can actually move snow? Where's Chen Zhenghao of 601? Where's Xu Hao of 802?" He named them bluntly. No flourish. No mercy. Chen Zhenghao—Brother Hao—was the sort of name that made people look down the hall. Everyone knew him: broad shoulders, broader reputation, the man who'd…-

Ten minutes.Twenty minutes.One hour.Two.Five. Finally, Horse-Face sauntered into the arena. "Hehehehe.""What are you waiting for? Kill him!" His voice was a deafening, guttural roar. Chen Xiao offered a lazy smile. "My foot's tired. Can't do it." The flimsy excuse made Horse-Face clench his bulging fists as he closed the distance. "Five seconds," Horse-Face hissed, the words icy. "Kill him, or I kill you.""Five!" He began the countdown, a verdict, not a request. His insistence only…-

Chen Xiao stood motionless, hands clasped behind his back, chewing on Liu Chang'an's words. Jiangbei? Huaxia? Those were bold claims."You think I'm exaggerating?" Liu Chang'an asked suddenly, as if reading Chen Xiao's thoughts. "Have you heard of the ancient martial tradition?"Chen Xiao only frowned. Liu Chang'an shook his head. "You couldn't have… What I mean is—""You mean that boy is an inheritor of the ancient tradition?" Chen Xiao cut in. Liu Chang'an nodded. "Yes. He's the legitimate heir of an…-

Zhang Yi yawned and lounged deeper into the couch. Outside, the block fought the cold; inside, his thermostat smiled back. His safe room held a perfect twenty degrees, endless fuel, and a silence that smelled like privilege. The world could freeze; he'd booked himself a sunset. No good shows on TV. Live streams were dead—ice had killed the bandwidth and the dancers who once flung themselves into cameras for likes. If any streamer tried to dance in −70°C in a camisole, Zhang would only give a slow,…-

Fang Yuqing trembled under two quilts in her rented apartment. The AC was cranked to its highest setting, but the room barely nudged above freezing. Every breath tasted of cold; every limb felt like a block of ice. Then her phone buzzed: Zhang's photo. She stared. He sat in thin pajamas, a thick steak steaming on his plate, a glass of red wine in hand. They lived in the same building — how could they be in two different worlds? The steak looked like top-tier wagyu; the bottle like something from a…-

Ten minutes later.Jiang YunHan and Zhao Kui Jiang returned."Two doors," Jiang YunHan reported, his voice low and grim. "One leads to a fight against a New Human. The other… forces the two participants to fight each other. To the death. And if just one person chooses the PvP door, it overrides everything. The other person's choice becomes irrelevant."This made everyone grasp the game's essence.It seemed one of the first two had chosen the PvP door, leading to a death.So the game wasn't hard—just a pity…-
