Introduction to the work "Under the Gray Dome"
When the eyes of deep space turned to the earth, humans were shocked to realize that they were never the only owners of this planet.
The starting point of the story is not the day when the doomsday comes, but a black meteor core with a diameter of two kilometers - the Esomis core. At the edge of Jupiter's orbit, it actively deviated from its billions of years of orbit and turned accurately towards the earth. It did not crash to the ground as predicted by the disaster, but exploded in an extremely unnatural manner at high altitude, spreading a primitive pathogen from deep space, the Helosporium fog virus, into every inch of the air that humans depend on for survival.
This is not a simple biochemical disaster. Helosporium fog virus is an "evolutionary key" from the depths of the universe.
It does not directly cause death, but like a program rewriter, it will crazily activate, distort, and fuse all the original viruses, fungi, and microorganisms on the earth with extremely high environmental adaptability. The sky turned from blue to gray within a few hours, and a thick "grey dome spore curtain" stitched the sky together like a living bandage; the earth was covered with gray snow, black dew, and spore dust wind; and 60% of the humans who once occupied the top of the food chain became irrational and extremely aggressive necromorphs within a week, becoming the bottom nourishment of the new ecological chain.
What's even more desperate is that the Helosporium Mist Virus will continue to spawn new monster lineages depending on the region, climate, and host: there are the Ash Eater system that can be crushed purely by numbers, the Parasitic Cavity system that parasitizes the abdominal cavity of the human body, the Bone Armor system that breaks through walls with heavy equipment, the Ringing Nest system that controls groups of corpses to carry out tactical sieges, and the Wing system that later tears apart the sky and completely rewrites the landscape...
