The story centers on William Garin (Matt Damon), a European mercenary who, along with his companion Pero Tovar (Pedro Pascal), journeys to China in search of black powder. They are captured by the Chinese army stationed at the Great Wall, only to discover that the Wall is not just a defensive structure against human invaders but also a fortress protecting against monstrous creatures known as the Taotie.
