Don’t look up at noon. The daylight will recognize you! The mirror lags by half a beat, and the door cracks open!
As an eerie nursery rhyme spreads through the city, a rules-based horror apocalypse known as the [Noon Fiend] quietly descends. Shadows turn traitor, mirrors become prisons, and every common-sense rule is overturned. The entire city becomes a hunting ground for gods and demons.
Lin Yuan is reborn from the blood-red ruins of ten years in the future. He is the only person in the world who knows all the rules for survival.
From the start of the apocalypse, his beloved girlfriend Su Qing is cursed by the “Corpse Blossom” and left on the brink of death. To save her and make up for every regret from his previous life, Lin Yuan resolutely plunges into the abyss.
Using his foreknowledge to seize the initiative, he claims the heaven-defying treasure that should have belonged to someone else, the Netherworld Treasure Mirror. He ventures alone into forbidden zones, recruits the “Corpse Collectors” who roam the city’s shadows and the government’s “Hound” squad, and establishes an order of his own in the darkness. He even dares to storm the “Ghost Market” in a mortal’s body and trade with indescribable entities, fighting to carve out a path through the blood and ruin to the realm of gods and demons for himself and his girlfriend!
Half human, half demon. As he becomes the new king who commands all ghosts, she awakens from despair and becomes the only deity in the mortal world.
In this catastrophe that no one can escape, they will be each other’s only salvation, and also... the ultimate nightmare of every enemy.
