When a Thousand Demons Descend, She Arrives to Restore Order

[Apocalyptic horrors, sequence-based power progression, formidable female lead and mind games, close-knit team, struggles over human nature, fated corruption, self-redemption, defying heaven in dire straits] Five years after the Great Horror descended, the world had become a wasteland. Rule-bound horrors roamed the land, while mutated sequences devoured all living things. Everyone knew that the stronger a sequence bearer became, the sooner they would succumb, until they eventually turned into a deranged horror. Nineteen-year-old Qin Tian was the only anomaly in the apocalypse, burdened with two forbidden sequences. Silent Night Hunt made her unmatched in battle, able to kill horrors above her level. Ember Sequence Core could rewrite the rules, using her sequence to suppress evil. The two sequences repelled each other, and the price was immense: every time she unleashed their full power, she sacrificed her own life force. Every battle against a stronger foe brought her closer to corruption. She was the sharpest blade in the human world, and also the horror most likely to fall into darkness. In the wasteland, survival meant facing wolves at every turn, and the people in the bases were far more treacherous than the horrors. Hypocritical leaders schemed and plundered, mad scientists sought to create a world by destroying all life, and the source of the natural disasters watched over humanity from above. Qin Tian, a lone hunter, gathered three teammates with wildly different personalities to form the Ember Hunt Squad. They used reason to unravel plots, bonds to hold back inner demons, and mortal flesh and blood to stand against the endless tide of horrors and the abyss of human nature. As they grew stronger step by step and tore apart schemes and sinister conspiracies, they also fought off mutation and held fast to the limits of their humanity. When the whole world tried to force her to succumb and become a horror, Qin Tian used her battered body as a formation, her true heart as her sequence, and herself to hold back the heavens, bringing humanity a future of life reborn from the ashes and peace for generations to come.
