A rain of red plunged the world into madness.
Some awakened supernatural powers: longevity, regeneration, fire control... They rose to the top overnight and became gods in this new world.
Others paid a price: twisted limbs, rotting skin, uncontrollable mutations... They gained power, but completely lost their human form.
And some were utterly corrupted, reduced to mutated creatures that knew nothing but killing.
The whole world was gripped by terror and chaos, struggling to adapt from scratch to this new age of mutation.
But Ruan Bo was an exception.
Three years ago, before the red rain and without warning, his body began its first mutation in secret.
He endured agony and lost control. Countless times, he woke in the middle of the night, convinced he was turning into a monster.
He lived alone with this secret for three years, until he saw the red rain in the sky and watched the whole world relive the nightmare he'd faced three years earlier.
Then he realized something.
He wasn't some poor soul struck by bad luck.
He was this world's pioneer.
While everyone else was still figuring out how their mutations worked, he had already undergone several transformations and learned to maintain a normal human appearance.
While everyone else still feared losing control, he had learned to coexist with the power inside him.
As so-called chosen ones congratulated themselves on their newly acquired abilities, Ruan Bo quietly looked at his fully evolved, perfectly controlled final form and smiled knowingly.
“Welcome to my world.”
“I am a walking natural disaster!”
