Crimson Mist, Ashen Earth

At dusk, with a red fog sealing off the city, Lin Mo, owner of a convenience store in Jiangcheng, witnessed the arrival of a bizarre cataclysm. The once-bustling city became a living hell in the scarlet mist, as humans mutated, savage beasts ran rampant, and order collapsed completely.

He unexpectedly crossed paths with Su Qing, an office worker he had never met, and the family of Zhao Lei, a laborer. They formed a team in the depths of despair, struggling to survive each step of the way, from a desperate escape from the convenience store’s warehouse to a deadly counterattack in a hardware store, caught between the twin threats of mutated creatures and human greed.

As the red fog continued to spread, Lin Mo discovered that infection had not made him lose control. Instead, he had awakened strength beyond that of ordinary people. When he tried to uncover the source of the cataclysm, he found a conspiracy far more shocking than he could have imagined lurking behind the disaster.

On this scorched earth of civilization, survivors turn on one another for food, medicine, and shelter, while unknown threats in the depths of the red fog steadily drag them into an even greater darkness. Lin Mo must lead his team through blood and fire to fight their way to survival, and preserve the last warmth of humanity amid the ruins of the apocalypse.
