On the surface, it is a bustling and noisy modern metropolis, with GDP ranking among the top in the country all year round. There are many high-rise buildings, flashing neon lights, and complete urban supporting facilities. But beneath the glamorous appearance, what's special about Linyuan City is that it has two overlapping spaces, the "realistic layer" and the "weird layer." Most ordinary people can only perceive the reality layer, while a selected few (the creators), the weirdness itself, and a very small number of people with special physiques can glimpse or enter the weird layer. The layer of weirdness will erode the layer of reality as the strength and influence of the weirdness expands. When the influence of a certain weirdness reaches a threshold, it will become an "urban ghost story" and be permanently imprinted in Linyuan City's urban memory. At this time, the weirdness itself will undergo a qualitative transformation, and the creator who facilitated this process will receive corresponding "rewards."
Lin Mo is a reporter at a newspaper in Linyuan City. He is 28 years old. He was retaliated for reporting a school bullying incident and lost his job. He later joined a small newspaper and has a strong interest in urban legends and the dark side.
Lin Mo's sister Lin Yue suffers from a rare "soul failure syndrome". Doctors are helpless and can only rely on expensive drugs to stay alive. Just when Lin Mo was in despair, he received a text message from the Alien Chaser Game. The rule maker told him that as long as he cultivated Kaitan-level monsters, he could make a wish to cure his sister. In order to save his sister, Lin Mo was forced to become a creator and embarked on the path of "creating strange stories".
