Han Shuo, as usual, got up, washed, and picked up his unsharpened Tang sword to go out for his morning practice. He didn't know that this day would be the last twilight of human civilization. **A zombie virus outbreak, the world instantly falls.** As he swung his sword through the morning mist, the first scream rang out in the distance.

The once prosperous city has become hell, the zombie horde floods the streets, and behind every closed door lies death. Han Shuo gripped his Tang sword tightly, the blade finally stained with real blood—not practice, but a life-or-death struggle! **"Don't want to die? Then fight your way out!"** From the apartment complex to the supermarket, from the underground parking garage to the abandoned hospital, every breath could attract zombies, every choice is a matter of life and death.
