In the third year after the disaster struck, Linyuan, one of the last cities of mankind, ushered in a real collapse.
Outside the city is an infected wasteland that devours everything; inside the city is depleting resources, out-of-control order, and a rebellion that determines the lives and deaths of 120,000 people.
Nine people called "Night Watchers" were forced to stand at the front of everyone.
Some people want to die, but they live to the end.
Some people desperately tried to live, but fell before dawn.
Some people are always optimistic, but they face the most painful death.
There are people who are so strong that they never fail, but die without honor.
Some people value dignity above life, but end up kneeling at the feet of the enemy.
There are also people who once believed in light, sincerity, kindness and self, but in the end of the world they personally destroyed everything they cherished most.
They think the real fear is death.
Only later did I discover——
What is more cruel than death is fate that makes you live in a way that is most unacceptable to you.
When the names of heroes are engraved on monuments, when history whitewashes all wounds into glory, those buried truths are telling those who come after:
They didn't lose to the monster.
Nor did he lose the war.
They just couldn't escape themselves.
This is a post-apocalyptic group story about survival, humanity, faith and betrayal.
Some people die at dawn, some live in the long night.
And in the end, no one survived.
