The Key of Light silently observes everything from behind the scenes, separating itself from its own past and manipulating its memories. One 'person' after another appears in the world, puppets of fate chasing each other, weaving together the final curtain. Are they human or god? Is it illusion or reality? The long river of fate is interconnected, and the narrator beyond dimensions has entered the dream.
"Two months..." He whispered to himself, his breath instantly shredded by the cold wind. He had been thrown into this familiar yet unfamiliar world a full sixty days later than his "kindred," Klein Moretti. It felt familiar because he had read the thick epic that depicted this world; it felt unfamiliar because when the words transformed into icy reality, and every breath carried the frantic whispers of Beyonder characteristics, the experience was completely different.
When Zhou Ming woke up, he had become Zhou Ming Everett, a third-rate novelist in Backlund. He thought he had simply transmigrated into the world of the famous novel "Lord of Mysteries" and only wanted to rely on his "original work fan" advantage to survive in this dangerous world.
However, he soon discovered that his transmigration was not accidental. Deep within his soul slumbered a terrifying essence incompatible with this world—he was a fallen Outer God, the largest fragment of consciousness of the "Serpent of Narrative and End." Those seemingly coincidental inspirations and the words that flowed from his pen were not a cheat code, but rather the unconscious resurgence of his own authority.
A man who died in an accident is brought to this fantastical and eerie steampunk world by the influence of an Outer God. He embarks on a journey to uncover the truth and secrets: "Darkness and isolation are humanity's protection; ignorance and delusion are the future of human survival. As exploration deepens and knowledge increases, humanity will gradually march towards extinction." Explore this world filled with darkness and danger, reveal the secrets hidden beneath the veil of history, and experience a world of imaginative mystery together.

This book focuses on the pure mysterious core; all side plots will logically become self-consistent at the appropriate time, so please read with confidence.
[Mysterious style + high-tech doctor + invincible scalpel + decisive killing + mechanical pet]
Having traversed a mysterious world, Arthur Beria landed in the peaceful and simple city of Dilis. He discovered that his mind wasn't filled with those maddening ramblings, but only with lines of cold, hard data.
To others, it was the indescribable whisper of an evil god, a runaway mutation that meant certain death. To Arthur, it was merely a series of medical records awaiting processing: "A lurking vengeful spirit? Hmm, a neurological parasite, electroconvulsive therapy recommended." "An out-of-control Extraordinary? This is malignant proliferation caused by genetic mutation, cut it off." "Contamination by an ancient god? Oh, this is a high-risk virus, requiring planetary-level isolation surgery."
Thus, in this mad world where steam and mist intertwine, a black market doctor emerged, inspiring fear in all who beheld him. He wielded a scalpel, accompanied by a vicious mechanical dog that fed on corpses. Even a god descending to earth would be forced onto the operating table to sign an informed consent form if they dared to display their health bar before him.
Arthur adjusted his monocle and looked at the trembling evil god: "Don't move, it's just a minor surgery, it'll be over soon."

A fanfiction about Lord of Mysteries. "Mr. A, look over there, there's a living Extraordinary Ability. Let's capture him and offer him to the Lord." "Hey, Mr. Beastmaster about to be promoted, this is excellent promotion material. You'll definitely need it at Sequence 7. How about a discount, 700 gold pounds?" "Mr. Fool, don't be so stingy. Drink this Faceless Man Potion and put on your half-high silk hat." "The 'Grim Reaper' of the Tarot Society, Mr. M of the Aurora Society, one of the thirty-two mentors of the Morse Penitentiary, and a special bishop of the Steam Church—these are all nicknames I often use. Call me whatever you like," Tzel said very politely.
A soul from another world arrives in the world of the Lord of Mysteries, but he's transported to the wrong place—the moon… PS: Two male protagonists [Klein and the main character], no female lead, the protagonist's mother is a fallen goddess, he arrives via a portal to the moon, he has built-in cheat codes, is in a state of chaotic neutrality, suffers from schizophrenia, and is a hypocrite. The main character's personality is similar to early versions of Nvidia, treating the world as a virtual game and characters as NPCs, perceiving the world's good and bad qualities from his own perspective.
