Zhang Rui is an utterly ordinary college student, with a chuunibyou look in his eyes and a clear, unmistakable air of foolishness. When the apocalypse strikes, every species on Blue Star gets a chance to hatch anew. In his previous life, Zhang Rui awakened the power to transform into Ultraman. But the boy who believed in the light, the boy who slew dragons, was eventually branded a monster himself. His enemies conspired against him, his ex-girlfriend stabbed him in the back, and as he lay on the verge of death, Zhang Rui unleashed the dark side of light and returned to the time before the apocalyptic hatching. To see through the world's falsehoods and people's hypocrisy, his will resonated with Blue Star's mysterious will. He awakened the Heavenly Eye and was bound to the Heavenly Eye Search System.

Humans who hatch successfully become Transcendents, while beasts become mutated beasts.

There were also a mutated zombie dormitory supervisor and security guard, his ex-girlfriend, a campus beauty and cosplayer from the neighboring Media University, a rich second-generation classmate who roared like a dragon, and the brother who slept in the bunk above him.
