The earth was torn apart by the "Abyss Rift", and 90% of the land became monster lairs. Blind boy Lu Ran lost his sight after witnessing Cthulhu's tentacles in the rift, and was imprisoned in a mental hospital. However, in a desperate situation, he awakened in the "Eternal Night Prison" - a bronze cage that can contain mythical beings4. The first prisoner [Egyptian God of Death Anubis] gave him the "Scale of Judgment", which allows him to peer into the weaknesses of all things. In order to fulfill the last wish of his mentor Chen Jiuge, Lu Ran holds an ancient rune sword and joins the seventh team of the "Fire Keepers", humanity's last line of defense. However, he gradually discovers a shocking conspiracy between the top management of the organization and the alien gods of the abyss7.
At the Qingcheng University in Sanctuary, Lu Ran took in the "Nordic God of Conspiracy, Loki" and used the "Mask of Deception" to outwit the human-faced plague; he domesticated the "General, the Forefather of Chinese Zombies" and controlled the zombie tide to reverse the crisis in the sanctuary. As the Prison of Eternal Night unlocks prisoners such as the Greek Titan and the Japanese Yamata no Orochi, he takes on the name of "Warden" and walks on the border between light and abyss. The abyssal hybrid identity of the cold captain Ye Wumian and the hunting of the seven deadly sin apostles of the Pale Parliament make the choice of trust and betrayal run through 38.
When Cthulhu's body awakens, only three of the nine sanctuaries remain. Lu Ran burns his life and activates the "Execution Ground of the Gods" to look directly at the truth of the abyss with his blind eyes. In the final battle, Ye Wumian transforms into a pale witch and sacrifices to restart the fire of civilization. Lu Ran combines the power of all the prisoners to slash out the "God-killing Sword", engulfing the gods with eternal night, and lighting up the world with fire. 5 When the smoke cleared, he lost his powers but regained his sight, and the whistles echoing in the streets hinted at the sleepless abyss and the everlasting hope.
