The western desert corridor of the Yanzhou Federation is engulfed in war. The Northern Coalition is secretly building “Permafrost Base Two” and developing a “water-corroding agent” capable of destroying water supplies. It hopes to seize the strategically vital Oasis Resource Belt, putting the drinking water of a million civilians at risk. In response to the crisis, a new special forces unit is born: the Warwolf Squad.
Haunted by the failure of a mission three years ago, squad leader Lu Chen assembles a team with sniper prodigy Su Qing, who has come to uncover the truth behind her father’s “accident”; fiery assault specialist Zhao Ye, a native of the western desert whose tribe was attacked by the Northern Coalition; taciturn technical genius Chen Mo; and gentle yet resilient medic Lin Wan. Together, the five form a Warwolf team just beginning to show its fangs.
From the clashes and growing pains at Rock Base to undercover reconnaissance in a western desert town and a desperate escape from Permafrost Base, they lie in wait through sandstorms, fight to survive in the wilderness, and face off by the shores of Green Lake. They must not only uncover the formula for the water-corroding agent and destroy the Northern Coalition’s plot, but also resolve the knots in their own hearts. Amid flashing blades, they forge bonds of trust that could mean life or death; amid thunderous gunfire, they defend their homeland and peace with unyielding courage. This is the epic coming-of-age story of a pack of lone wolves, and a borderland anthem written in blood and loyalty.
