Synopsis

Sen Salazar is attending university in Dubai when the sun erupts, plunging Earth into chaos. Monsters emerge from the ruins, resources vanish, and humanity teeters on extinction. Then the System arrives—an alien force granting survivors supernatural abilities, but at a cost. Sen scrambles to adapt, harnessing his newfound powers to navigate a world where trust is scarce and every choice carries lethal consequences. But the System’s gifts come with a creeping corruption, twisting its users into the very horrors they fight. As the line between man and monster blurs, Sen must master his abilities before the transformation claims him—or the wasteland does.
