The world was reconstructed overnight. There was no extreme cold or heat, no zombies or floods. After a violent earthquake, twelve vastly different ruins emerged from underground and occupied the entire planet in separate zones.
They turned in sequence at set times, like clockwork.
Humans could no longer make a permanent home by repairing their houses, because each rotation of the ruins destroyed everything on the surface.
They appeared so suddenly that they nearly destroyed all order, and the established rules fell apart.
Yan Qingmo felt something was very wrong, because these twelve ruins seemed to have come straight from the latest apocalyptic-themed blind-box series released by a certain blind-box company.
The blind boxes had gone on sale the day before the ruins appeared.
And she was the chief designer who had created them.
