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.

Shang Jianyao jumped up and down, proceeded to check the ventilation duct, and attempted to break open the door, but it was futile.

The entire room seemed to be cast from steel.

"Am I locked up?" The rash Shang Jianyao was a little dumbfounded.

The ruthless Shang Jianyao was raging. As he struck the wall, he laughed loudly. "Is there a need to ask? I knew that something would definitely go wrong with the body when a single-celled creature like you and a few low-IQ fellows are in the lead, but I didn't expect it to happen so quickly! How dare you enter a room that's clearly odd!?"

"In theory, everyone is a New World powerhouse. Nobody can lock us up easily. Besides, what's the point of locking us up? Even if they want to absorb our consciousness and mind, won't they still have to fight us?" the honest Shang Jianyao muttered.

The ruthless Shang Jianyao scoffed. "Don't you know how deep the waters of the New World are?"
