A global wave of randomly selected Rules of Horror descends. The Seven Deadly Sins are the key, and the Golden Shackles Prison is where it begins. Only those who survive can touch the chips that buy them another chance at life.
Yun Qi, an orphaned outlier from Imperial University, has an innate gift for feeling nothing, etched into his very bones. He cherishes his life, yet is ruthlessly ferocious. In a hell that tests human nature, he dissects the rules, using others as pieces and loopholes as his path forward.
When the leaderboard appears, Su Qingyan is unexpectedly drawn into the game. The coolheadedness and wild streak of the Su family's heiress make her a dangerously perfect match for him.
Nations clash, human greed is laid bare, and rewards from E to S rank are unlocked one tier at a time. Every contest for points is fraught with peril.
They wager their lives, probing recklessly at the edges of the rules and using the power of the Seven Sins to break through one terrifying mystery after another.
The way to survive has always been forged by forcing a path through fear and corpses.
