Lin Feng, a former member of the special forces unit “Shield of Yanhuang” and a young Chinese archaeologist and adventurer, has lost heart after a failed overseas recovery mission and withdrawn from the world in Panjiayuan, Beijing. But a mysterious notebook left behind by his grandfather points to a set of golden chime bells from the Yongle era of the Ming dynasty, which vanished mysteriously with Zheng He’s fleet and conceal a tremendous secret. Meanwhile, the international antiquities-smuggling kingpin known as “Dark Web” and a multinational mining company with murky connections have also caught wind of the bells. To stop the national treasure from falling into enemy hands and uncover the shocking truth behind history, Lin Feng has no choice but to don his armor once more and join forces with Su Zijin, his beautiful partner whose past is shrouded in mystery. Following scattered clues, they travel from Macau’s black market to Cambodia’s dense jungles, then beyond the snowline of the Himalayas, tracing their ancestors’ footsteps on a perilous adventure spanning the globe. What awaits them is not only a treasure buried deep underground, but also a fierce struggle that will decide the fate of civilization.
