At 1:45 a.m. on April 8, 2024, an invisible force tore open the eastern sky, creating a chaotic black hole wreathed in dark energy. Long, slender, jointed claws and tentacles covered in octopus-like suckers writhed as they crowded through the opening...
At the same time, in a dorm room at Jinhua Normal University in Jinhua City, Xiao Yin woke from a nightmare, cold sweat soaking his back as an inexplicable chill ran from head to toe.
"Beep."
An emotionless electronic voice sounded in the pitch-black dormitory, startling Xiao Yin so badly he wondered if he had encountered a ghost.
"Greetings, Host. The 'Doomsday Escort System' has been activated. The apocalypse has arrived. The first wave of mutants will reach your dorm building in five seconds. Prepare yourself. Countdown begins: 5, 4, 3, 2, 1!"
