Hunting is recovery, fighting is surgery.
The urban outskirts are progressively restricted areas, and human beings are trying to survive in the cracks.
The protagonist Lu Chen started out as a "gopher", and his life soul "Reverse Thorn" evolved with every life and death battle - the bone spurs spread from the shoulder blades to the whole body, and eventually turned into domains and even concepts.
The battle is not a numerical battle, but a precise dismemberment of monsters using terrain and teamwork.
With every kill, the human territory lights up an inch.
The core of the story is conquest: from the degraded beasts in the gray area to the disaster beasts in the black area, the protagonist grows up simultaneously with the human city-state, using bone spurs to regain the lost ground inch by inch.
The best ending is not to become a god, but to always stand on the edge of the next hunting ground.
