The uncanny has descended across the world. Everyone is pulled into a dungeon, where they must follow the rules to survive.
While everyone else clings to the rules, Lin Chen can see the loopholes in them.
"Do not look back" is a lie. The "safe zone" is a trap. The taboos no one dares touch are precisely the path to survival.
The whole world watches the Chinese contestant on a livestream, expecting him to die, while Lin Chen exploits bugs to clear dungeon after dungeon.
His country's fortune rises, foreign prodigies fall apart, and every uncanny rule is full of loopholes before him.
This time, it's the uncanny that will fear humanity.
