Upon opening his eyes again, Chu Ge found himself in a dim alley, next to a dumpster that emanated a foul stench, and not far away lay two stray dogs on the ground, tongues lolling out as they looked towards him.
Seeing Chu Ge's imposing figure, the two stray dogs let out a whine and took off.
Chu Ge began to size up his surroundings.
There were no surveillance devices in the alley, and there weren't many people coming and going on the streets beyond either end.
By the light, it seemed to be morning.
The sunlight was bright but not blinding.
A sinking feeling settled in Chu Ge's heart, his teammates were not by his side.
At the same time, he had not received any notification that he had become the Heart of the City.
Meaning, he was not the Heart of the City.
"Special reminder: during the entire process, you cannot actively declare that you are not the Heart of the City. If discovered, 1000 Survival Points will be deducted."
