"Fishing for Souls in the Fog City"
——When reason becomes currency, fishing becomes the abyss
A steel cage shrouded in steam and mist, madness whispering among the gears.
Lin Mo, a modern social animal who suddenly died of overtime work, opened his eyes and became a textile worker at the bottom of the foggy city who was squeezed to death.
In this twisted world where the industrial revolution is intertwined with unspeakable forces, he was accidentally bound to the [Sane Angler System] - consuming sanity points to fish for everything from the "sea of concepts": from a piece of moldy bread to a rusty dagger; from a taboo cult manual to a silver spear that kills gods.
But every lapse of reason brings him one step closer to madness.
He soon discovered that under this fog-filled city, undercurrents were already surging:
The senior leaders of the "Gear Church" who control order are secretly cooperating with the cult that worships the deep divers, using the sanity of living people as sacrifices in exchange for the forbidden power from the stars and the deep sea.
Missing children, whispers in the sewers in the middle of the night, bloody wooden boxes in the factory warehouse... All clues point to an advent ceremony that will be completed on the night of the full moon.
His status is humble, his sanity is in danger, and powerful enemies are around him.
Lin Mo had to walk on the edge of survival and madness, using the knowledge and weapons fished out of the system to deal with the church, the black market, the tribunal and the cult.
From rusty baits to forbidden fishing lines, every hook he throws may bring out hope or deeper despair.
This is a fishing with soul as bait.
And it wasn't just the fish that were watching him from the depths of the ocean.
