The pre-publicity of this film is as low-key as its temperament.

Two months before its release, the film only announced its true face of Mount Lu.Under the disguise of, successfully avoided the sight of the public. It is this pretending to be mysterious marketing method that dangles everyone's curiosity, but brings good results to the box office.

As the sequel to "Clover Archives", this film almost only inherits the apocalyptic setting and name of the previous work. Producer JJ Abrams called this film the spiritual successor of the previous work, which is simply a 24K gold-plated bullshit. However, this is not to blame the film for the famous brand.

The greatest danger often lurks in the safest place, and facing the danger is the first step in the road to survival.
