The Eclipse Descends: I Became a Calamity Vessel

Chen Jin, 27, a former special forces operative dishonorably discharged after a failed mission, lives in seclusion as a warehouse security guard. When a global biogenic disaster strikes and sunlight turns into a lethal corrosive force, humanity is reduced to struggling for survival in a wasteland. Dying while trying to save a girl, he awakens a black flame within him and gains the [Final Echo], an ability to copy superpowers—at the cost of continuously losing his own memories. Hunted by the Shadow Erosion Church and pursued by the Council, he devours the powers of powerful enemies along the way, piecing together the truth from fragments of memory. It turns out the disaster was a man-made experiment, and he is the only out-of-control "vessel." He does not want to become a god, nor be a savior. He will return the power to ordinary people, even if he ends up with nothing. Wandering the snow plains with amnesia, he leaves behind only one sentence: "If you are reading this, keep running. Because as long as someone is still fleeing, hope is not yet dead." — Description from novelcodex.org
