He was once a genius in the eyes of the world, but also a madman who was tricked by fate.
Gu Xiaobei, a 19-year-old young man with extraordinary wisdom and imagination, should have been the most dazzling light on the university campus. However, due to an irreparable tragedy and the loss of his beloved, he fell into the abyss of self-isolation, and was eventually imprisoned within the walls of a mental hospital.
A sudden fire devoured everything and ended his short and painful life. However, death is not eternal silence, but the starting point of a more bizarre journey.
When Gu Xiaobei opened his eyes again, he was already in a mysterious "ascension room" of nothingness. Having forgotten all his past events, he was told that he had become an "upgraded person" - only by challenging countless dangerous and abnormal copies in a supernatural space where ghosts and strange objects are constantly emerging, and completing the weird tasks set by "bystanders", could he grab a slim hope of rebirth.
Here, death follows you everywhere, and weird "ghosts" and unpredictable "rules" are the only realities. The geniuses of the past had to rely on their remaining wisdom and imagination that surpassed ordinary people, struggling in despair, exploring in the fog, and searching for the buried truth in forgetfulness.
"Death is not the end, but being forgotten by the people in the world." - Does this lingering motto hint at his final direction?
The road to rebirth is full of thorns, and his first step on this road is to completely forget the name that made him obsessed...
Intention: Death is not the end, but being forgotten by the people in the world
