Shen Mo traveled through time in the Machiavellian tragedy novel "Elegy of the Great Cause" and became an executioner in the capital's prison. When he killed the prisoner on death row at the beginning, he discovered that this man was actually the mastermind behind all the tragedies in the book - the ultimate boss.
At the moment of execution, he awakens the golden finger [Book of Cause and Effect], which can reveal the original "destined script" of the world. By changing the tragic fate of others, he can obtain "karma points" to strengthen himself. Shen Mo made a decisive decision and killed the ultimate boss at the beginning of the chapter, which instantly subverted the original plot and triggered the backlash of "Destiny" and the spying of unknown forces.
He used plot prophecies and causal points to hide himself while saving beauties and heroes who should have died in tragedy. He gradually became a chess player in the court, the rivers and lakes, and even the world from the executioner, and finally revealed the ultimate truth of the "book world" - an extraterrestrial existence that feeds on the misery of all living beings.
