Sequence: Puppeteer, My Puppets Can Summon the Gods!

[Not a power fantasy] [Everyone will die]

In this apocalyptic upheaval, where [Gods] have fallen, [Otherworldly Races] have declined, and [Calamities] run rampant, everyone can awaken extraordinary powers to resist the great waves of calamity.

The sun goddess Xihe's divine gift, [First Light], and the first appearance of Sequence 01, [Harbinger of Dawn], successfully wiped out the first Calamity.

It became the hope in everyone's hearts, and people came to call those with such powers [Divine Gift Bearers].

At the divine-gift ceremony, Xin Yu unexpectedly received the rare divine gift [Invoke the Gods], with the Sequence [Puppeteer].

By invoking the gods, he could imbue lifeless puppets with divine powers.

[Bag Puppet] + [Golden Aura] = [Qingshiyi Puppet of Yan Art]

[String Puppet] + [Nature] = [Druid Painted-Face Puppet]

[Water Puppet] + [Ocean] = [Sea King Warrior Puppet]

[Roller Puppet] + [Fire] = [Hellfire Clown Puppet]

[Iron-Branch Puppet / Sunlit Paper-Silhouette Theater] + [Earth] = [Hill Clown Puppet]

[Firework Puppet] + [Lightning] = [Thousand-Bird Monster Puppet]

And that's not all: the puppets can invoke the gods directly.

[Great God of the Three Altars and the Sea Assembly] [Great Sage Equal to Heaven] [Mechanical God] [Willow God] [Sea God] [Fire God] [Earth Goddess] [Thunder God]

From that moment on, the curtain rose on a divine-invocation show.

With a worn shoulder pole carrying two puppet-theater trunks, Xin Yu set up his puppet stage and traveled the world.

Posterity honored him as “God of Shoulder-Pole Theater” and “Patriarch of Puppet Theater.”
