In a parallel world, two nations share a continent: the Machinery Kingdom in the north, which develops mechanical technology, and the Sheng Kingdom in the south, which develops biotechnology. The two nations are enemies, locked in bitter conflict, and their border has been ablaze with war for years.
At the Machinery Kingdom's national research institute, a newly developed robot unexpectedly gains a "human soul" in an accident.
Is our protagonist, former researcher Qin Bailiu, a "former" human granted a second life in an iron body, or an artificial intelligence robot that merely believes itself to be human? This may not be a question with an easy answer. But at least one thing is clear to Qin Bailiu: he longs for freedom, hopes to be treated as a human being, and wants to live a peaceful, happy life.
