In 2029, after a "Purple Lightning Storm" that covered the world, a handful of human gene chains were broken and reorganized, awakening powers called "Fate Patterns." Fate patterns are hidden in the spine of the human body and are divided into three categories: observation type (perceiving cause and effect), manipulation type (controlling elemental matter), and rule type (distorting the logic of reality). Awakened people are divided into four levels according to their control: first awakening → condensing pattern → domain transformation → return to ruins.
On the surface, the city is prosperous as usual, but there are two factions fighting in the dark: the lawful faction uses the "Hidden Law Division" as a stronghold to maintain the boundary between the supernatural world and the secular world; the eclipse faction believes in the law of the jungle and robs lifespan by devouring other people's life patterns. There is a "death line" invisible to ordinary people above the heads of all awakened people - it is the embodiment of the countdown to life. Lin Bei's observation ability "death line vision" obtained after being struck by lightning can not only see the death line, but also accelerate death by touching it, but every time it is used, it will be at the expense of his own lifespan.
The city is the hunting ground, the takeout box is the disguise, and the death line is the sickle hanging over everyone's head.
