Synopsis

In a remote Chinese village shrouded in mystery, every year, on the night of the lunar eclipse, strange and terrifying occurrences plague the area. Visitors vanish without a trace, and locals whisper of ancient spirits tied to a long-lost dynasty. A skeptical detective arrives in the village, determined to solve the case of the missing people. However, as supernatural events unfold, the detective’s disbelief is challenged, and they find themselves caught in the sinister web of the village’s curse. The deeper they dig, the closer they get to uncovering a forbidden ritual that could either break the curse or doom them all.

Chapter 1Chapter 2: The Arrival

The detective, Li Wei, arrives at the village on the evening of the lunar eclipse. The village, hidden amidst thick fog and dense forests, feels isolated from the rest of the world. Li Wei can sense the eeriness of the place from the moment they step off the bus, the air heavy with a strange tension. The villagers are all suspiciously quiet, and their eyes follow the detective with a mix of fear and distrust.

Li Wei visits the local inn, where the owner, an elderly man named Old Han, offers them a cold reception. It's clear that the villagers want nothing to do with strangers, and Li Wei soon learns that every year, visitors who come to investigate the disappearances never return. Despite the warnings, Li Wei is determined to uncover the truth.

As night falls, Li Wei ventures out to the village's old temple, the site where many of the disappearances are rumored to have occurred. The temple is surrounded by thick vines, and its eerie silence is only broken by the occasional creaking of the ancient wooden door. Inside, there are strange symbols etched into the stone walls, ones that Li Wei recognizes as part of an ancient ritual.

Suddenly, a cold gust of wind rushes through the temple, and the ground beneath their feet trembles. A whisper, barely audible, fills the air. "Leave… now… before it's too late…"

Li Wei is shaken but pushes forward, determined to uncover the truth behind the curse. As the night of the lunar eclipse approaches, they begin to feel the weight of the village's dark past pressing down on them.

"Better to have and not need than to need and not have." Sky Ishiyama is a nerd with Photographic Memory who after the bumps and turns in his life, turned to be a Doomsday Prepper. The story takes place in our world where our MC was diving through the Dark Web just for fun and discovered something that could only be found in books, movies, novels, manga, anime, or games. Zombies, Walkers, Freaks, Infected, Biters, or whatever you may call them. They're fucking real. Ever wondered what you could do in a zombie apocalypse where you actually know what you're doing? Actually surviving properly while preventing stupid deaths? Doing what is right and necessary? Or better yet, actually doing what you shout in the monitor when you're watching a film? Our MC is coupled with the knowledge of not just fighting z's but actually surviving by securing his home, finding allies, scavenging for supplies, building a community and so much more. If you could, kindly like the tags I've put up and it would be huge, huge help for me, thanks in advance! Also, a comment, a review, or even a vote of a single power stone would help me out a lot!
