Chen Qin opened his eyes and found himself lying in a rancid house filled with rancid smell. Outside the window was the dark red skylight that never faded. This was not the world he was familiar with. This is an apocalypse that is slowly and completely decaying. The rules of physics and cognition have been distorted. Abnormal creatures are wandering among the ruins. The air is filled with the sweet smell of death.
He soon discovered his only connection with the world: a dark red "blood mark" parasitic under the collarbone. This mark is both a curse and the only way he can survive. It can passively sense danger, and it can also actively "deduce" the target's weaknesses and information fragments at the critical moment of life and death. The price is severe spiritual emptiness, loss of vitality, and even cognitive pollution.
Under the control of the controller named "Old Man", Chen Qin became a "stone", and together with his numb companion "Wooden", he performed a near-death collection mission in the polluted ruins: collecting "rotten eyes" that emitted mental pollution, scraping poisonous "grey moss", and avoiding the swift and cruel "scavengers"...
In this cage of despair, Chen Qin must learn to coexist and fight with the "parasites" in his body. He wants to use this dangerous power that is constantly eroding himself to find a glimmer of hope in the ruins of murder, to identify the direction among lies and betrayal, and to explore the origin of the blood mark and the truth of the end of the world in a world that is slowly collapsing.
