NecroHarbinger：Melbourne‘s Codex of the Damned
When the Gamma Scarlet Moon tears open the sky, Melbourne becomes a blood-soaked chessboard for the superpowered and the grotesque. **Chen Mu**, a mortician with a shattered past, awakens the *Soulforged Hand*—a cursed gift that lets him steal abilities from the dead, at the cost of his own memories. But after discovering the *Spore Primordial*, a cosmic bioweapon buried beneath the city that rewrites the rules of power, he forms the *Funerary Syndicate* to survive a war waged by five factions:
- **The Crimson Cross**: Vampiric remnants of the Third Reich, distilling immortality from blood-crystal chalices.
- **The Lunar Brotherhood**: Gene-cursed werewolves devouring kin to stave off metamorphic collapse.
- **Rust Gospel**: Cyborg zealots seeding their brains with self-replicating nanite swarms.
- **Celestial Watchers**: Silicon-based parasites puppeteering city AI to bend reality’s probabilities.
- **The Jester’s Carnival**: Chaos artists weaponizing quantum humor viruses into living tragedies.
As Chen battles through a maelstrom of cybernetic Taoist exorcisms, Qing-dynasty zombies ripping through dimensional rifts, and whispers of a cosmic horror stirring beneath his feet, he uncovers brutal truths:
- Every stolen ability carries its creator’s anguished final moments.
- The hospital morgue hides an alien *Civilization Filtering Lab*.
- The woman he loves is a living vessel for the Spore Primordial.
When the mad philosopher **The Jester** transforms Melbourne into a flesh-and-steel theater of nightmares, Chen Mu must choose: become the deity of a new epoch, or remain the tombstone of a dying world.
