All appearances in the world, all living beings wear faces
Lin Mo, a graduate of the Department of Archeology, received a broken Nuo noodle for 150 yuan at the most difficult time in his life. Little did he know that this token of the ancient "gatekeeper" opened the door between the inner and outer worlds for him. Under the intertwined laws of devouring and paying, he was forced to join the Night's Watch and deal with the Mask Council, the Faceless Organization and the dark side of the Ancient God.
Every time he uses the mask, he is paying the chips of life, emotion and memory; every victory is pushing him into the inhuman abyss. When Lin Mo discovered that the so-called "other world" was actually a dumping ground for negative emotions stripped away by ancient humans, and that all masks were prisons for ancient gods, he made the same but completely different choice as his father - not to become a god or a demon, but to fragment the universe and transform into the thirteenth mask, becoming the gatekeeper of eternity.
This is an epic about "seeing the truth clearly and still choosing to bear the burden and move forward". From being ignorant of survival to controlling the rules, from devouring others to taking on the world, Lin Mo uses his Nuo face to reveal not only the reality of everything, but also the final stubbornness of human nature in desperate situations.
