Chapter 2: The Infinite City

The Legend had been walking for hours, following a paved road that wound through verdant hills. The perfect landscape seemed to stretch endlessly, always harmonious, always artificial. Despite his growing unease, he pressed on with one certainty: he had to understand where he was, and why.

Rounding a bend, he saw something in the distance. A massive shadow sliced through the tranquil horizon—a titanic silhouette that seemed to devour the sky. Intrigued, he quickened his pace, feeling a mixture of fascination and apprehension grow within him.

What he discovered left him speechless.

Before him lay a colossal city, a true sea of steel, glass, and concrete. Skyscrapers of unimaginable proportions soared into the sky, their peaks lost in a dense mist, as if the world itself refused to reveal their end. The towers were so numerous and closely packed that they formed a vertical labyrinth. At their bases, sprawling streets teemed with life: billions of inhabitants moved in an orderly yet eerily mechanical ballet.

Pedestrian pathways sprawled across multiple levels, connected by countless walkways and elevators. Flying vehicles zipped between buildings, leaving luminous trails like urban comets. Everything seemed perfectly organized, yet suffocatingly so.

As he stepped into the city, The Legend felt an invisible weight settle upon him. Here, the air was heavier, saturated with noise and relentless activity. The faces of the passersby were more unsettling than those in the pastoral landscape: smooth, flawless features but empty eyes, like perfectly trained puppets.

He stopped in front of a massive screen affixed to the facade of a building. A monotone voice recited a series of slogans, accompanied by mesmerizing images of a world without conflict, pain, or chaos.

“Welcome to the Eternal City. Here, perfection is our goal. Here, you will find everything you desire.”

But The Legend didn’t believe it for a second. The more he observed, the more imperfections emerged behind the facade. In a shadowy corner, he saw groups of people standing immobile, frozen like statues, their eyes fixed on glowing panels, their expressions devoid of life. Further on, an entire building seemed to emit a faint crackling noise, like an old holographic image flickering on the verge of collapse.

He tried questioning the passersby.

“Where am I?” he asked a woman impeccably dressed.

She looked at him with a fixed smile.

“You are home, sir. The Eternal City provides everything you need.”

But with each attempt, he received the same mechanical response, as if no one here could think for themselves.

Continuing his exploration, he arrived at a gigantic suspended market—a floating plaza surrounded by walkways. The stalls overflowed with extravagant goods: fruits of unreal colors, clothing shimmering like stars, advanced gadgets beyond imagination. But when he picked up a piece of fruit, he felt cold, smooth material beneath his fingers: plastic, painted to mimic natural skin. Everything here was just a facade.

He kept climbing the city’s upper levels, taking a glass elevator that ascended at a dizzying speed. As he rose, the panorama unfolded before him: an endless urban jungle. But what drew his attention was a massive structure at its heart. A building even more colossal than the others, surrounded by halos of golden light, as if the entire city revolved around it.

The Legend felt this place was important, perhaps even the key to this strange world. But before he could think further, the elevator abruptly stopped, and a voice crackled through the intercom:

“Perfection does not tolerate anomalies.”

Red lights flared around him, and a low hum filled the air. Something was hunting him.

He clenched his fists and muttered to himself:
“Then this perfection will have to catch me first.”

He pushed open the ceiling hatch of the elevator, ready to face whatever this infinite city had in store for him.

Chapitre 2 : La Cité infinie

La Légende marchait depuis des heures, suivant une route pavée qui serpentait à travers des collines verdoyantes. Le paysage parfait semblait s’étendre à l’infini, toujours aussi harmonieux, toujours aussi factice. Malgré son malaise croissant, il avançait avec une seule certitude : il devait comprendre où il se trouvait, et pourquoi.

Au détour d’un chemin, il aperçut quelque chose au loin. Une ombre massive tranchait l’horizon paisible, une silhouette titanesque qui semblait dévorer le ciel. Intrigué, il accéléra le pas, sentant un mélange de fascination et d’appréhension grandir en lui.

Ce qu’il découvrit le laissa sans voix.

Devant lui, s’étendait une cité colossale, une véritable mer d’acier, de verre et de béton. Des immeubles aux proportions inimaginables s’élançaient vers le ciel, leurs sommets se perdant dans une brume dense, comme si le monde refusait de lui en révéler la fin. Les tours étaient si nombreuses et si rapprochées qu’elles formaient un labyrinthe vertical. À leurs bases, des rues tentaculaires grouillaient de vie : des milliards d’habitants semblaient se déplacer dans un ballet ordonné mais étrangement mécanique.

Les voies piétonnes s’étalaient sur plusieurs niveaux, reliées par d’innombrables passerelles et ascenseurs. Des véhicules volants filaient entre les immeubles, laissant derrière eux des traînées lumineuses semblables à des comètes urbaines. Tout semblait parfaitement organisé, mais aussi oppressant.

En pénétrant dans la cité, La Légende sentit un poids invisible s’abattre sur lui. Ici, l’air était plus lourd, saturé de bruit et d’une activité incessante. Les visages des passants étaient encore plus inquiétants que ceux des habitants du paysage bucolique : des traits lisses, sans imperfection, mais des yeux vides, comme des pantins parfaitement dressés.

Il s’arrêta devant un écran géant accroché à la façade d’un immeuble. Une voix monocorde récitait une série de slogans, accompagnée d’images enivrantes d’un monde sans conflit, sans douleur, sans chaos.

“Bienvenue dans la Cité Éternelle. Ici, la perfection est notre but. Ici, vous trouverez tout ce que vous désirez.”

Mais la Légende n’y croyait pas une seconde. Plus il observait, plus les imperfections émergeaient derrière la façade. Dans un recoin sombre, il vit des groupes de personnes immobiles, figées comme des statues, les yeux rivés sur des panneaux lumineux, leur expression dénuée de vie. Plus loin, un immeuble entier semblait émettre un léger grésillement, comme une vieille image holographique qui vacille.

Il tenta de questionner des passants.

— Où suis-je ? demanda-t-il à une femme impeccablement habillée.

Elle le regarda avec un sourire figé.

— Vous êtes chez vous, monsieur. La Cité Éternelle vous offre tout ce dont vous avez besoin.

Mais à chaque tentative, il recevait la même réponse mécanique, comme si personne ici n’était capable de penser par soi-même.

Poursuivant son exploration, il atteignit un gigantesque marché suspendu, une place flottante entourée de passerelles. Les étals regorgeaient de produits extravagants : fruits aux couleurs irréelles, vêtements scintillants comme des étoiles, gadgets avancés dépassant l’imagination. Mais lorsqu’il prit un fruit en main, il sentit un matériau froid et lisse sous ses doigts : du plastique, peint pour ressembler à une peau naturelle. Tout ici n’était qu’une façade.

Il continua de grimper dans les niveaux supérieurs de la ville, prenant un ascenseur vitré qui montait à une vitesse vertigineuse. À mesure qu’il s’élevait, le panorama se déployait devant lui : une jungle urbaine sans fin. Mais ce qui attira son attention, c’était une structure massive en son cœur. Un immeuble encore plus colossal que les autres, entouré de halos de lumière dorée, comme si toute la cité était organisée autour de lui.

La Légende sentit que ce lieu était important, peut-être même la clé de ce monde étrange. Mais avant qu’il puisse réfléchir davantage, l’ascenseur s’arrêta brutalement, et une voix retentit dans l’interphone :

“La perfection ne tolère pas les anomalies.”

Des lumières rouges s’allumèrent autour de lui, et il entendit un bourdonnement. Quelque chose le traquait.

Il serra les poings et murmura pour lui-même :
— Alors, cette perfection va devoir me rattraper.

Il ouvrit la trappe du plafond de l’ascenseur, prêt à affronter ce que cette cité infinie avait à lui offrir.
