In 2099, a global virus broke out and 90% of humans mutated into bloodthirsty monsters. The survivors are lingering in the ruins, and the darkness of human nature is exposed in the doomsday.
Su Luo, an ordinary courier, accidentally awakened the "causal reversal" golden finger - he could see the "cause" of an event and forcibly change its "effect". But this ability consumes his life energy every time he uses it, forcing him to make a cruel choice between helping others and protecting himself.
On the first day of the apocalypse, Su Luo rescued a girl who was besieged by zombies, but thus exposed the fact that he had special abilities. Forces from all sides took action upon hearing the news. Some wanted to use him, some wanted to kill him, and some even wanted to seize his ability.
Faced with the greed and betrayal of human nature, Su Luo chose the most difficult path - traveling through the apocalypse alone in search of the legendary "Hope Base." He thought that as long as he was strong enough and cautious enough, he could survive in this wasteland.
But he was wrong.
When he finally arrived at the Hope Base after going through untold hardships, he found that it was not a safe haven at all, but a huge trap. The ruler of the base, a mysterious man who calls himself the "Savior", is conducting taboo experiments on the lives of survivors, trying to crack the secret of the "causality reversal" ability.
What shocked Su Luo even more was that this "savior" turned out to be his brother Su Ran who had been separated for five years.
Brothers kill each other, life and death are on the line. Su Luo discovered that the abilities he was proud of were just pawns in a larger chess game. And his brother Su Ran is the real chess player. How should Su Luo choose?
