Explosions echoed incessantly from afar, and the camp outside the Sea City Alliance finally became shrouded in a deathly "emptiness." Meanwhile, Yu Liang had also ceased to give the Strange Story Humans any opportunities to gather intelligence, choosing to retrospect time to three minutes earlier.
For him, the worst news about this retrospection was the realization that the Strange Story "Humans" equally retained their memories from before and after the rewind. This meant that the value of the experience he accumulated with each cycle was greatly diminished.
Yu Liang himself was able to retain memories because they were temporarily stored with the Moon Butler. At the instant Yu Liang completed the retrospection, the Moon Butler refilled his memories from before the rewind, seamlessly bridging the gap, which made Yu Liang feel as if his body had undergone retrospection but his consciousness had not directly rewound.
