In this strange world shrouded in fog, every inch of land hides deadly rules. The protagonist Lin Ye holds a mysterious candle that will cause death when extinguished, and is trapped in an infinite cycle of life and death. Reality and the world of ghost stories intersect in a strange way. The monitoring equipment on the hospital bed overlaps with the altar of rules in the foggy town. Mechanical prosthetics intertwine with mirror afterimages. Memory fragments resonate with space-time gears.
The confrontation between the anti-rulers organization and the Mist Alliance never ends. The mechanical heart of Lao Ji, Ah Li's glass body, A Wu's out-of-control golden perception, and Xiao You's mysterious golden light spot, each of them is burdened with unique secrets and abilities. They avoid mirror image assimilation in the mirror corridor maze, fight against the erosion of gear insects in the gap between time and space, crack the contradictory rules in the wax town, and face the manifestation of fear in the abyss of dreams.
In the darkness, the dark side of the first-generation candle wick and the children wearing white gloves control everything. The embryos of rules are constantly hatching in resentment, and the giant eyes of the ancient existence stare at all those who resist. Caught between hope and despair, Lin Ye must use loopholes in the rules to survive and solve the ultimate mystery of the twin candles, otherwise both worlds will become sacrifices to the rules. In this life-and-death game, who can break the cycle and reshape order?
