On the night Longdu fell, a blood-red altar stained the thousand-year-old capital. An elite human squad was wiped out, and the sole “key” fled through a rift in space, becoming an unforeseen variable that escaped the Dragon Clan’s plan to awaken its kin through sacrifice.
Eight years later, Lin Haoze lives an ordinary life in a southern town, unaware that he is the surviving “Key of Longdu” from that catastrophe. Bearing Dragon Clan blood capable of tearing through the barriers of space, he is humanity’s last hope against the dragons, and the greatest obstacle to their dominion over the world.
A secret search by Rhine Academy shatters the town’s peace. The conspiracy behind the “New God Project” lurks in the shadows, while the ambitions of the four great academies, the secret society’s boundless hatred, and the Dragon Clan’s ancient curse all become entangled anew with his arrival. As the dragon’s breath deep within his blood quietly awakens, and his adoptive parents’ sacrifice reveals long-buried secrets, Lin Haoze stands at the crossroads of fate: will he become a “key” controlled by his bloodline, or break free of destiny and find a path to redemption amid the thousand-year hatred between humans and dragons?
The ancient dragons’ cries once again resound across heaven and earth, and the banners of war between the races rise anew. In this game woven by fate, the “key” will make the final move with his own hands: destruction, or rebirth?
