The Ashes of Gods and Demons: Candle and Ruyi

After the collapse of human civilization, the only remaining fortress of Apocalypse was besieged by the four major camps of gray-green bone-eroding fog and gods, demons and ghosts, becoming the last line of defense for mankind. The "alien" Tsuen Nan Zhu, who was rejected by the fortress, can sense the movements of monsters in the fog because of the mysterious inhuman blood flowing in his body; while Queen Ruyi, a middle-level officer in the fortress who adheres to the belief in human survival, is struggling to repair the defensive wall that is on the verge of collapse. During a bone-eroding fog raid, the two unexpectedly met. Tsuennan Zhu accurately pointed out the location of the fog core, and was forcibly included in the exploration team led by Wang Ruyi, becoming a "special consultant" to search for the fog core. In this team, there is Lin Ye, a mechanical craftsman who joined because his sister was infected by the fog, and Zhao Chengying, an old member of Wang Ruyi's father and actually an informant for the conservative faction. On the way deep into the Skeleton Forest, they encountered Qing Li, the young master of the fox demon tribe who was coerced by the ghost tribe. They were involved in the dispute in the buffer zone between gods and demons, and were detained by Xuan Zhen, the captain of the divine patrol team. They also faced the pursuit of Hei Wuchang, the messenger of the ghost tribe, many times. As the exploration progresses, the truth about the rupture of the ancient "human-god contract", the secrets under the fortress, and the connection between the two people's lives gradually come to light. What they are looking for is not only the fog core, but also the "rift key" that can reshape the camp structure. Behind this key, lies the root of the end of mankind and the possibility of breaking the cycle of reincarnation. The factional strife within the fortress, the cruel game between camps, and the collision of inhuman blood and human beliefs pushed the two of them to the forefront of their destiny. From mutual exclusion to mutual trust, Tsuen Nam Zhu and Wang Ruyi must choose between perseverance and doubt: to protect the shaky people
