The Foggy Bones Reef in the East China Sea is the "Gateway to Hell" that navigators avoid. The dense fog that lingers all year round hides the strange sound of tapping on the lighthouse glass, as well as the silver scales that penetrate the skin.
In order to find his missing father, Chen Yan took the initiative to apply to become the 18th lighthouse keeper of Mist Bone Reef. On the first day he landed on the reef, he encountered the hasty escape of boatman Lao Zhou and found half a strange diary left by his father. The crawling symbols on the page, the murmur of "there is a living ship in the fog", and the traces of dark green slime at the end all pointed to a truth that was far beyond common sense.
As thick fog envelopes the reef again and again, the existence of "their" gradually becomes clear: the huge outline attached to the outer wall of the lighthouse, the silver scales that can melt into foam, and the "deep sea anchor" that is ready to move under the foundation. When his father's last words of "using the tower keepers as sacrifices" emerged, and when dark green seaweed lines began to spread on his own skin, Chen Yan realized that the light of the lighthouse was never to illuminate the road, but to suppress; the duty of the tower keepers was never to protect, but to become a "bait".
Is it to continue reincarnation and trick someone into taking his place? Or ignite the silver scales and perish together with the unknown existence in the deep sea? The thick fog of Wugu Reef surged again. Chen Yan held half of the key left by his father and wrote his own duty log in the gap between light and darkness...
