Qin's Moon: The Emperor Under Heaven

Synopsis

Continues the story of Qin's Moon: The Great Wall

Following the destruction of the Mechanical City and the Mohists' near-total defeat, the Qin Empire pursues peace and prosperity by undertaking massive construction efforts, including the building of the Great Wall and other large-scale initiatives. Tensions rise in the city when a mysterious giant vessel, the Mirage, appears off the coastline. Rebels from Shanghai band together to thwart the Emperor's ambitions. The Emperor's forces—comprising the Quicksand group, the Yin-Yang School, the Net Trap Organization, and the swordsman Shengqi—face off against a rebel alliance made up of Mohists, Confucianists, and Taoists. Tianming, the leader of the Mohists, continues to encounter mounting obstacles as he advances in his studies and training.
