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.

Loannes was very confused by Shang Jianyao's reaction. "What's wrong? Don't you find it very cold at night?"

"I do." Shang Jianyao nodded honestly. Without waiting for Loannes to ask again, he muttered to himself, "When all the passengers boarded the cruise ship in the evening, a cold draft blew south and plummeted the temperatures. The cycle began from that moment…

"It's fine during the day, but the night's cold is bone-chilling… It's normal during the day and chaotic at night… On the last day, we relied on hiding in the dark and cold storage to escape the fate of being infected with the Heartless disease…"

Loannes was stunned. "What are you talking about?"

As his father was an Ashlandic culture enthusiast, he had grasped Ashlandic when he was young. With this skill, he barely managed to survive around Iron Mountain City—which was mainly Ashlandic. Finally, he entered the Second Food Company and had a 'fortuitous encounter.'
