Transmigrating to the 19th century, Lin Jie embarks on a desperate quest for survival aboard a coolie ship. Lin Jie's only recourse is his modern-day knowledge and the "Echoing Touch," which reveals fragments of the past when he touches old objects. In this low-magic world, where magic comes at a price and power stems from knowledge, he uses his mortal body to hunt anomalous creatures, transforming them into unique "grotesque weapons." From a humble individual struggling on the fringes of order, he rises step by step to the pinnacle of the Hunter Rankings. Welcome to 1888, a time when SAN is as precious as bullets.

Tomorrow, you will receive your pay at the parade grounds, but do not wear armor. This

This world is in the latter half of the Age of Exploration, with vast swathes of the New World being explored, plundered, and colonized by Europeans, ultimately achieving European dominance.

Can Yun Tianyang catch this last train? And lead this ancient nation to once again the pinnacle of the world?
