Cuttlefish That Loves Diving

In this latest work by Lord of the Mysteries author, Cuttlefish That Loves Diving, be prepared for a well-thought out and detailed apocalyptic, cyberpunk world with a setting superseding Lord of the Mysteries!
Our protagonist, Shang Jianyao, is crazy—literally crazy, at least that's what the doctors said. Living in a huge, underground building of Pangu Biology, one of the few remaining factions in this apocalyptic wasteland known as the Ashlands, he acts in unfathomable ways that's head-scratching, comical, and shrewd. So is he really crazy? Probably.
He has a grand dream: to save all of humanity.
Intricately tied to this dream is something everyone in the Ashlands believes in: Deep in a particular ruin buried away by danger and famine, a path leading to a new world awaits. To step into the new world, one only needs to find a special key and open that certain door.
There, the land is bountiful, as if milk and honey flows freely. 
The sunlight is dazzling, as if all coldness and darkness are washed away. 
The people will no longer have to face desolation, monsters, infections, mutations, and all kinds of dangers.
There, children are joyous, adults are happy, everything is fine as they are supposed to be.
Every Antiquarian, Ruin Hunter, and Historian roaming the Ashlands knows: That's the New World.

Three days later, the Old Task Force was in a safe house in the Red Wolf Zone.

Shang Jianyao stood up and walked to the cracked full-body mirror in the room. In the mirror, his hair was brown. His eye sockets had also been cleverly circled, making them appear rather deep.

His facial contours also became more three-dimensional under the makeup and other things. This made him look ethnically like a Red River person.

Under Jiang Baimian's skillful disguise, Shang Jianyao became less handsome. It was to prevent him from being noticed in the nobles' private rooms and attracting suspicion.

However, his tall figure and masculine bearing remained. In any case, this wasn't that obvious among First City's nobles—who appeared to advocate strength and force.

As far as Jiang Baimian knew, a large portion of the genetic enhancement liquid and drugs exported by Pangu Biology every year were delivered to First City and shared by the nobles.
