Evolutionary Reverberation

The end of the world is not a natural disaster, but a carefully planned "gift". Creatures around the world instantly start to evolve wildly, and their abilities awaken. Some people cheer for the arrival of the era of divine selection, while others form forces to compete for hegemony. Only Lin An, a former emergency doctor, could smell the disease on a cosmic scale from the first variant. His awakened power [Death Return] can reverse time, but the cost is the random loss of a memory or emotion. As a lone wolf in the doomsday, he holds a scalpel that can reveal runes and walks alone among the crumbling ruins and strange ancient ruins. The military conducts inhumane forced awakening experiments; chaebols monopolize evolutionary resources to build new classes; fanatic believers regard mutation as the return of the divine. Lin An, on the other hand, only followed his cold rules of "doomsday medicine" and used a medical perspective to dissect this terminal illness that was spreading around the world. He discovered that supernatural powers were stolen powers, and every time he used them, he distorted reality and himself. The truth in the ruins whispers: Evolution is a cage, awakening is parasitism, and the entire earth is just a petri dish under the observation of an advanced civilization. When all forces tried to win over or eliminate his "key", Lin An had quietly given up happiness, memories, and even the perception of his own existence. He no longer seeks salvation, only to pursue the final answer - even if the cost is to become an "inhuman thing" more terrifying than the doomsday. This is the pilgrimage of the lonely, the madness of the rational, and a dark epic in which all humanity is exchanged for the ultimate truth.
