The apocalypse arrived. Zombies ran rampant, and supernatural powers awakened. Chen Ye, a discharged soldier, struggled to survive amid the ruins with his younger sister's hand in his. He unexpectedly awakened a rare lightning ability, only to discover that he could also control electromagnetic fields. Dual awakening was the stuff of legend among survivors, and it made him a target for hunters. During a mission, he rescued Tang Ke'er, a biological researcher, who discovered that the frequency of Chen Ye's powers matched that of an undisclosed source of zombie mutations. The two joined forces to form a squad, bringing in Captain He, who had military connections; Zheng Xiaodong, a geeky tech expert who seemed a little ditzy but proved crucial; Zhao Tiezhu, a construction worker with incredible stamina; and Doctor Su, who harbored a secret. They set out to cross the dead zone and find a military stronghold, but were drawn deeper and deeper into a hell of gifted people slaughtering one another and humanity sinking into depravity. Chen Ye was determined to uncover the source of his dual abilities, while Tang Ke'er fought desperately to keep everyone alive, including Chen Ye, who could destroy himself at any moment if his powers ran wild. In the wasteland, simply staying alive is a gamble.
