Synopsis

【Supernatural Horror + Urban Legends + Godslaying + Ancient Texts + High Martial Arts + Cthulhu】When urban neon conceals the bloody truth, the reality you see is nothing but a set of carefully crafted rules. Lin Wu, an intern at Containment Facility 404, is horrified to discover his name on a death list from 1953! From that moment on, anomalies that defy common sense begin appearing one after another: a Tang-dynasty bronze mirror that eats nightmares, a living filing cabinet that goes berserk, and a blood-red library that turns people into printed words... He unexpectedly awakens an ability to rewrite the rules, but the price is the gradual loss of his own body parts. Qin Se, a forensic pathologist, can bring the dead's memories to life from autopsy reports, while a web novelist can turn fictional plots into deadly traps. Together, the protagonists fight the horrors lurking behind the rules, only to discover that deep beneath the facility, on its ninth underground level, a typewriter tirelessly writing The New World Code is quietly distorting the entire world. More chilling still, the villain they are fighting, the “Author,” turns out to be the facility's first director. And Lin Wu, the protagonist, has been a “sacrifice pending” on the list all along. As the Outer Gods descend and the entire city folds into a Cthulhu-esque pocket dimension, can these gifted people, bound by their duty to contain anomalies, find a sliver of hope for humanity in the gaps between the rules?
