商品簡介
In the dwindling light of what was once a bustling metropolis, Alex Mercer stood atop the remnants of a shattered skyscraper, eyes fixed on the horizon. The sky, painted in hues of fiery orange and blood-red, bore silent testimony to the madness that had unfolded. Three distinct trails, like the fingers of a wrathful god, stretched upwards from distant lands, marking the ascent of nuclear warheads launched by the world's superpowers: America, Russia, and China.
Alex, a former urban explorer turned reluctant survivor, had always had a fascination with the skeletons of civilization. Now, the world itself was becoming one large, desolate ruin. The blasts were distant, but the message was clear-humanity's hubris had finally culminated in its ultimate folly. As the initial shockwave of the launches reverberated through the hollow canyons of concrete and steel, Alex could feel the tremors of a new era beginning.
Panic had erupted in the streets below. People scrambled in a frenzied dance of survival, looting stores, hijacking cars, and trampling over one another in a desperate attempt to find shelter. The thin veneer of society, so long maintained by the promise of order, had been scorched away in mere moments. In the chaos, Alex remained an island of eerie calm, not out of indifference but from a deep-seated resignation that the world they once knew was irrevocably lost.
As the night sky was set ablaze with the aftermath of humanity's wrath, Alex descended from their perch, determined to navigate the chaos. They knew that the real struggle lay ahead-not just the fight against the inevitable fallout and the collapse of the environment, but the battle for humanity's soul, as the remnants of the world turned on each other to survive.
And so, with a heavy heart and a will steeled against the coming darkness, Alex set out into the ruins. The story of their survival was yet to be written, but it would be a tale not just of endurance, but of the search for hope amidst the ashes of the world.
Alex: "Hello? Is anyone hurt?"
Survivor 1: (Cautiously) "Who are you? You're not one of them, are you?"
Alex: "No, I'm not. My name's Alex. I'm just looking for supplies and trying to make sense of all this."
Survivor 2: (Interjecting) "Make sense? The world's gone, man. There's nothing left to make sense of."
Alex: "There's always something left. We can rebuild, start over. What's your name?"
Survivor 3: (Weakly) "Rebuild? With what? Everything's destroyed, everyone's gone..."
Alex: "Not everyone. You're still here. I'm still here. There's hope in that. My group and I, we're gathering survivors, trying to find a safe place."
Survivor 1: "A safe place? Does such a place exist now?"
Alex: "It has to. We've heard rumors of a settlement up north. It's supposed to be secure, with resources and a chance for a new beginning."
Survivor 2: "Rumors, huh? And what if it's just that, rumors?"
Alex: "Then we'll find somewhere else, or make one. We can't give up. That's not how humanity has survived this long."
Survivor 3: "And what if we don't want to come with you? What if we want to stay here?"
Alex: "That's your choice. But I don't think staying here will do you any good. It's only a matter of time before the raiders or the radiation sickness..."
Survivor 1: (Interrupting) "Okay, okay. We get it. How do we know we can trust you, Alex?"
Alex: "You don't. But right now, I'm the only one offering a way out of this place. I can't force you to come, but I won't leave you behind if you want to join us."
