   Reader note

   The world-building in this book is superb; the construction of the world system clearly shows careful thought. It effectively portrays the insignificance of civilization in the face of the infinite unknown, the internal conflicts of individuals, and the significance of civilization's existence, continuation, and inheritance. The fusion of Cthulhu and futuristic elements is a relatively novel point. Although the author's writing style is not refined enough, and the handling of details is not entirely smooth, causing some fluctuations in reading flow, overall, this book is definitely worth praising. If you enjoy Cthulhu stories, I personally recommend this book. [Laughs]

   Let's give this one a try. The world-building is quite extensive. It's a female-oriented, post-apocalyptic story with some elements of a male-oriented urban martial arts novel. The genre is niche, though. There's no hoarding, no zombies, and some characters possess superpowers (called "prints" in the book). There's no romantic pairing.
