In 2025, "strange fog" appears in the city, and the consciousness of evil gods sleeping in ancient artifacts awakens (such as the Bronze Taotie and the Lord of the Flying Corpse Buddha in Dunhuang), causing cognitive pollution. Humanity uses intangible cultural heritage skills to fight against the strange, forming a new class system of "cultural relic restorers + intangible cultural heritage inheritors". The protagonist Chen Zhen, as a restorer of the Forbidden City, suffered from changes in his right eye due to contact with the Sanxingdui gold mask (the body of the monster can be seen). His left hand was covered with gold foil and became a "container for swallowing monsters", and was bound to the [Intangible Cultural Heritage Guardian System] - repairing cultural relics can unlock corresponding skills (such as ancient sword-making skills, flying dance steps), but it requires "humanity points", and the deepening of the alienation will trigger divine backlash.
