Japan has fallen to chaos. What began as a single outbreak quickly spiraled into a global catastrophe-zombies, mutations, and monsters born from science gone wrong.
Hunter Rhodes, along with Takashi, Rei, Saeko, Saya, Kohta, and others, are survivors trying to navigate the collapse of civilization. With a borrowed military truck, scavenged weapons, and their will to live, they carve a bloody path through the dead. But this is no ordinary outbreak-the origins are tangled in something far darker.
The BSAA struggles to contain bioterror across the globe. Umbrella's shadowy hand manipulates events from the dark. And in Manhattan, a deadly experiment known as Redlight has unleashed horrors that even the undead fear.
Caught between the walking dead, bioweapons, and conspiracies, Hunter and his friends must fight, adapt, and survive. The choices they make will decide not just their fate, but whether humanity has any future left.

Six high school students. One impossible mission. And a power they never asked for... Kidnapped by the ruthless bio-terrorist group NEMESIS, the teens are exposed to a new element called Primonium-unlocking abilities only the rarest of humans, known as Primes, could possess. NEMESIS plans to unleash Primonium into the atmosphere, creating thousands of superhumans and reshaping society on their own twisted terms. Rescued by Atlas Corp., a private military organization dedicated to stopping NEMESIS, the six teens are thrust into a world of danger, espionage, and powers beyond their imagination.

May the Dead Lie Still
The world ended quietly. No meteor, no war, no warning. Just a pulse of red light-and then silence. In the ruins of Japan, the Hive spread like wildfire, a biomechanical virus that didn't just kill-it rewrote. Minds, bodies, cities. Everything it touched became part of a greater, terrifying whole. Iris Vale was supposed to die. Infected during the outbreak, she was taken by Nyx researchers and altered with a prototype serum. She lived-but she wasn't the same. Now faster, stronger, and still linked to the Hive through whispers in her mind, she walks the line between human and something else. But her purpose is clear: Yori, the man she loved and lost, is still alive-imprisoned inside the Hive's central structure, the Citadel. Once a brilliant tech entrepreneur, Yori has become the blueprint for the Hive's future, its chosen host for global domination. If he is consumed, the world won't just be lost-it will belong. With a fractured team of survivors, including Reina-the unstable Listener haunted by voices of the infected-and the determined Dr. Hoshino, Iris launches a desperate mission into the living nightmare of the Citadel. Facing shapeshifting horrors, psychic traps, and twisted versions of her past, Iris must use every weapon she has-her body, her mind, and her memories-to reach Yori before the Hive completes its final overwrite. But deep within the Hive's mental realm, Iris finds that love is not only memory-it is resistance. And the strongest virus of all may be the one that reminds us who we are.Complete
