This world has no gods…
"Or rather, it's not the kind of god we imagine."

"We just like to think that by offering sacrifices to the gods and praying to them, we can get what we want."
Gao Heyann nodded, "You're right."
"What might not exist are the omnipotent gods, who are also compassionate towards humanity, that people long to be real."
However... if there really were gods... would they actually care about human life and death?

Dai Lin suddenly remembered "Lu Pan" from "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio"...
Could it be…
"You guys..."
