The Hope of Your World Is a Bug

Lu Zhiheng is the only person in the entire city who doesn't suffer from tinnitus. During the oath ceremony nine years ago, every child's anchor point hummed. His alone was blank. The upper-level System marked him as an "anomalous individual," a bug that should never have existed. But this bug has an ability that even the upper-level System cannot calculate: when his blank anchor point activates, every electronic device within a hundred meters fails. Surveillance goes dark, EMP cannons become scrap metal, and even the anchor network can be devoured and disrupted. A mysterious voice from beyond the world also speaks inside his mind, always showing him a way to survive when all seems lost. Trouble closes in from every side: the Cleaners surround his home, and the photo on an SSS-level wanted poster is that of his younger sister, Lu Zhiwei, an ordinary schoolgirl who is somehow worth deploying an entire extermination squad and three EMP cannons to capture. He escapes underground with his sister and joins the Alliance of Anomalies. Their base is besieged, their allies are cut down, and the anchor network of the entire world hunts them. Then the truth is laid bare: this world was created, and human civilization is merely an "will-data farm" for the upper world. The voice says, "The hope of your world is a bug." And he will make that bug tear open the prison of the entire upper-level System.
