Shadow Trigger

In the year 2047 AD, space-time passages called "rifts" appeared randomly around the world. Some cracks lead to dead ruins, where "aberrant bodies" condensed with chaotic energy are entrenched; some lead to the "near boundary" - an alien civilization with technology that far exceeds that of the earth. People near the border called the rift the "Gate" and regarded the earth as a resource point. The invasion never stopped in the past four years. To defend against the dual threat, cities around the world have formed defense organizations. The "Border" headquartered in Yunling City is the most powerful among them, gathering tens of thousands of ability users, divided into two categories: "Explorers" who go deep into the rift to eliminate aberrations, and "Combatants" who use near-field technology "triggers" to fight against invasions. There is also a third category of people who cannot even meet the minimum standards. They are called "scavengers" - they make a living by wandering around the edges of the shallowest cracks and picking up scraps of crystals that others don't want. There are no triggers, no team, and can't even afford decent equipment. Ji Lingyuan is such a scavenger. This novel and its characters are purely fictitious.
