Bronze Scale Tribulation

Three legendary tomb robbers who washed their hands in a golden basin were forced to reunite because of a thousand-year contract soaked in the bloody fingerprints of their mentor. Once a week, in absolute darkness, they must use their deepest professional scars - "trembling left hand", "memory of fear of the dark" and "torn soul" - as sacrifices to feed an ancient bronze scale that can sound autonomously to maintain its weird "imbalance" state. This scale is one of the ancient "Nine Scales" and is specialized in weighing intangible things: fate, cause and effect, and memory. The peace of retirement is completely shattered, and the truth that led to their disability separation twenty years ago also emerges. As the ceremony proceeds, they discover that the disappearance of their mentor, their own trauma, and even the source of their bloodline all point to a shocking secret that spans three thousand years - there was once a magic weapon forged to measure destiny, but now the contract is reincarnated, and the price has come. Not only do they have to compete with the scale, but they also have to face the secret organizations that compete for the "invisible quantity" in the shadow of history, and weigh the ultimate sacrifice on the tightrope between civilization and individual survival.
