(Pacing and character growth. Feel free to comment anytime if something seems off. I’ll reply as soon as I see it.)
Eighty years ago, a global arms race spiraled out of control. In a single night, nuclear warheads blanketed every major city. Nuclear fallout spread alongside the explosions, dragging the entire world into hell.
In just a few short days, human civilization was thrown back centuries, and the population shrank by more than eighty percent.
As time passed, the radioactive dust slowly settled. The surviving humans rebuilt settlements among the ruins.
The protagonist is Song Zhong. His name means “the bell that sends the dead on their way,” and he must ring the bell in the Drum Tower.
He must sound the dead on their way.
He must sound the end for this man-eating wasteland.
He must sound the end for this lawless age that treats human lives as worthless as weeds.
I give myself a score first. No matter what, this is a work that came out of my hands.
I wanted to write a story in the wasteland world where the protagonist established himself in a gang and grew up along the way. He is a young man who grew up under crises and opportunities. With the expectations of his adoptive father Song Wushu, he guarded the Bell and Drum Towers. To this rotten rules after the Great Nirvana, to this troubled world that regards human life as nothing, give it an end. To the demons and monsters who hide in the dark and want to drag mankind completely into hell, let him die.
So, he has to reach the top step by step, and I have to write the story to the end step by step.
