The blood moon rises, and countless ghosts run rampant. In their despair, humanity discovers that objects imbued with pain and curses can mutate into “haunted artifacts” with supernatural powers. But using their power exacts a terrible price: lifespan, memories, even humanity itself. The world becomes a cruel balance, trading reason for power.
In this hopeless era, Lin Jin becomes a “haunted artifact hunter” walking the edge of madness. While every other hunter sinks beneath the price they pay, he discovers that he has a unique secret:
The “price” he pays to use haunted artifacts is reversed into a temporary boost!
A demonic blade that burns away lifespan fills him with surging vitality.
A pocket watch that takes his memories grants him the heightened senses of bullet time.
Cursed objects that bring endless pain become a source of power with which he crushes all others!
While everyone else slowly dies by their own hand in fear, he grows stronger with every descent into madness.
From then on, he becomes the only “player” in this desperate era. Faced with terrifying S-rank haunted monsters, human factions with their own hidden agendas, and the “blood moon” looming over the entire world, Lin Jin calmly declares, holding countless haunted artifacts:
“Your end is only my beginning. I’ll rewrite the rules of this apocalypse.”
