When archaeologist Lu Mingyuan was exploring prehistoric ruins, his consciousness was dragged into the mysterious "Temple of Roots" and his body fell into a coma. Deep in the temple, twelve giant doors seal the tampered truth of the fable, corresponding to familiar myths such as the Foolish Old Man who moved the mountains and the Jingwei who reclaimed the sea.
The fables he knew were all lies: Yu Gong was not persistent, but signed a blood contract for generations to mine jade that swallowed souls; Jing Wei was not seeking revenge, but a sacrificed soul, and his resentment became an eternal energy furnace. Lu Mingyuan must fuse the cores of these "dark rooms" one by one in order to regain his body and uncover a thousand-year conspiracy aimed at controlling human civilization.
In reality, his best friend, former special soldier Huo Zhenyun, protects his body and fights against the threat of the mysterious organization "Order"; the talented scientist Su Xiao becomes a bridge between science and metaphysics; and the newly joined archaeologist Shen Yi brings deeper historical secrets.
The virtual and the real are intertwined, and the two people fight simultaneously in the inner and outer worlds. From the "Heart of Moving Mountains" of being enslaved, to the "Grudge of Reclamation" with overwhelming resentment, to the "Sorrow of the Sun" in the hero's tragic song... Lu Mingyuan gradually approached the terrifying truth of the "Heavenly Web Weaving Plan" during the adventure, and every time they broke through, the "shepherd" behind the scenes got closer.
This is the ultimate decryption about the origin and future of human civilization. After the twelve dark rooms, what awaits them is a complete awakening or eternal silence?
