Shanhai Reboot: Raising Ferocious Beasts in the Modern World

The ancient world of the Classic of Mountains and Seas did not vanish. It was sealed away by the great formation known as the Severance of Earth and Heaven. On New Year’s Eve in 2026, the Year of the Fire Horse, cracks appear in the seal due to the excessive “energy of desire” generated by modern cities. Mythical creatures and fragments of ancient gods begin seeping into modern civilization. A graduate student of folklore unexpectedly inherits the bloodline of a “Gatekeeper” and, while posing as a courier, is forced to contain rampaging beasts, unravel mythological mysteries, and become entangled in a struggle over the survival of two worlds.
