The Nonhuman God

(Top-tier mind games, no formulaic tropes, no System, no power fantasy, no female lead, ensemble cast)

Just as humanity was about to enter a new era, a black torrent came crashing down from the sky and shattered everything people had built.

Bai Ye loves humanity, but no individual person. He is a puppet walking a predetermined path, a futile scheme to save humanity. This is not his story, and he is not the protagonist of the world. The protagonists of this story are all the people struggling to survive in a world of despair.
