Lilly witnessed a shocking sight, causing her to retreat instinctively. Now she was unable to understand what she saw and wanted to take another look, but the world she saw was nowhere to be found.

Zachary swiftly asked, “How was it, Lils? How was the pen?”

Lilly was confused and muttered, “I just saw a group of people clocking in… numerous people clocking in.”
