The Gray-灰体

After humans had lived and multiplied for thousands of years on the fertile land south of the "River of Life", they finally formed a unified kingdom. After four dynasties, the human kingdom at the top of the steam civilization had become extremely powerful: due to the invention of "high combustibility coal crystals", biological brains, robots, steam guns, steam vehicles and even heavy armor with steam assisted power appeared one after another. The limited territory could no longer satisfy human desires, and the exhaustion of resources became a constraint on further development. The vast land in the north naturally became the direction of expansion. However, the animals in the north ate the "fruit of wisdom" at some point, gave birth to wisdom, and called themselves "spirits". The human expedition team that ventured deep into the north once mentioned in the report: "Ten thousand miles of land, one billion spirits". In the eyes of the "spirits", humans who did not even know what the "fruit of wisdom" was did not have "real" wisdom at all, and could only be "pseudo spirits" at most. The northern "spirits" quickly suppressed the expansion of humans with their powerful strength, and the war gradually entered a stalemate. The continuous conflict almost ran through the history of both sides. In GD0113, the cruel "Red River War" was dragging the continent into another thousand year war. The mysterious force that suddenly descended on the battlefield and massacred all the participating troops on both sides with its despairingly powerful strength. "A mountain of corpses and a sea of blood" is not enough to describe the horror of the doomsday on the battlefield. The human army had to retreat to the south of the "Abyss of Sighs". Any cross line action would lead to the ruthless massacre of the mysterious force. The continent has since entered a strange period of peace. On October 15, GD0137, a large number of residents died in the small town "Yorktown" on the eastern coast of the human kingdom, and black flowers grew on the corpses. The few survivors were killed by a monster made of blood. The young Neil and the robot G escaped from Yorktown and went to the nearby port city of St. Vendice for help. On the 16th, a large number of refugees who suddenly appeared were driven by fear and poured into St. Vendice for refuge, but they grew black flowers and died suddenly. Within a few hours, the black flowers spread in the city like a plague, the death toll continued to increase, and all escape routes were blocked by mysterious forces. The young Neil was also caught in the vortex of terror and had to face the cruelty and reality of this world...
