Shen Ye is a top surgeon who is silenced after reporting the hospital’s underground organ-trafficking network. On the verge of death, he is chosen by a judicial organization spanning the multiverse, the Fivefold Tribunal, and becomes the Red Court’s most dangerous class: the Hunter.
From a zombie train in Train to Busan to a world overrun by demons in Demon Slayer, from the monster-hunting grounds of The Witcher to a mad Cthulhu-haunted town, he must complete one near-fatal instance after another to earn his survival. His weapons are neither swords nor guns, but poisoned scalpels and a surgeon’s precise command of the structure of life.
Poisonous infiltration, strikes to vital points, anatomy-level critical hits: he carries out the Hunter’s ruthless killings with a doctor’s cool composure. After killing his enemies, he can “plunder” life essence or skill fragments from their corpses, gradually transforming himself through slaughter.
The truth about the Tribunal, the mystery of the protagonist’s origins, the laws that keep the multiverse in balance: when the poison doctor’s blade finally reaches the heart of the truth, Shen Ye must answer one deadly question:
Is the Tribunal truly maintaining order, or creating an even greater disaster?
And he himself, with his scalpel stained with blood, can he still be called a doctor?
