Under the wind-sanded beacons of the Han Dynasty, adventure blogger Lu Yu accidentally dug up a strange bronze compass. It is neither gold nor jade. It ignores the magnetic field and rotates on its own in the darkness, pointing to the unknown southeast. What's even more disturbing is that all electronic records about it have been erased by invisible forces. There is only a regular buzzing like a sleeping heartbeat, and a pair of coldly scrutinizing bronze eyes that broke into his dream, accompanying it like a shadow.
Following clues, he came to Jinshaxu Museum. When the compass resonated across the glass with the treasure of the museum, the bronze longitudinal mask, Lu Yu realized that what he had touched was by no means an ordinary history. All the guidance, together with the sporadic records in ancient books and the legend of "Dragon Roar" passed down orally by fishermen, point to a mysterious body of water: the Glazed Sea, and the "City of Guixu" sleeping beneath it.
To this end, he formed a special team: Zhai Abu, an electrician with superior skills and a believer in codes, and Su Han, a knowledgeable semiotics expert with a mysterious background. The three of them drove the boat and broke into the core of the Glazed Sea. However, what awaits them is not a silent ruin, but an ancient trap with autonomous consciousness. The ship was instantly paralyzed and dragged into the abyss by the irresistible undercurrent. In a desperate situation, the compass projects a three-dimensional light map that guides the way forward. The only way to survive is to voluntarily fall into the all-devouring darkness.
Under the deep water, the magnificent Guixu City slowly unveiled its veil.
