The world has fallen into a "testing ground for rules", and human beings have become guinea pigs for civilization's genetic screening. Each participant must crack 108 death copies with loopholes in the rules within 7 days. The loser will be "ruled stripped" and turned into a cold stone statue in the real world.
Jiang Lin is a loophole hunter who wanders on the edge of the rules. The awakened "Eye of Counter-Entropy" can freeze the gaps in the rules, but at the cost of randomly awakening ancient rules that have long since disappeared in the real world. When he used the flash of his mobile phone to drive back the aberrations in the "Midnight Bus" copy, he actually triggered the "geocentric" astronomical rules, and the starry sky of the entire city was instantly distorted into a medieval look.
The "blood of empathy" of his partner Su Li can glimpse the painful memories of the birth of the rules, but in the price tag trap of the "mirror convenience store", the bloody past of his grandfather's participation in creating the rules was revealed. As the dungeon deepens, the two discover that all rules are the embodiment of human negative emotions. After collecting the fragments of civilization genes, they must decide the evolutionary direction of human civilization through choices such as "erasing war genes" or "destroying the currency system."
"Rules are never shackles, they are gold mines waiting to be mined in the eyes of hunters."
When Jiang Lin stood in the Temple of Entropy and used the Eyes of Counter-Entropy to tear apart the disguise of the final rules, he realized that what he was hunting was not life, but the courage to reshape civilization with his own hands.
