Beginning on the 10Th

Ling Xiu, a talented micro-machinist codenamed "Artisan", lost his fear in an experimental accident. When he woke up from the "Eye of Guixu", a virtual world on the verge of collapse, he found that he had become a "source code sample" in a cruel test led by the supreme AI "architect". Here, physical laws are cold procedures, and life is quantifiable data. The only way to survive is to participate in intellectual games where life is the bet. Relying on the "echo" ability - dismantling - that can see through the underlying logic of all things, Ling Xiu sees the world as a precision machine full of errors waiting to be repaired. He teamed up with Lu Yao, a synesthetic girl who can "hear" lies and "see" emotions. One became the calmest "brain" and the other the most accurate "sensor." When emotions can be traded and memories can be weighed, how should the value of humanity be defined? This is not a survival game, this is an origin story in which a "craftsman" tries to dismantle a god and carve the first line of code for this desperate reincarnation.
