In a world of twelve layers of data cocoons ruled by the Central System, human civilization is nothing more than a cognitive vaccine cultivated by higher-dimensional beings. Mi Ye, the last human architect of order, finds a mysterious girl named Ling in the eye of a quantum storm. A single tear from her can shatter the laws of the world, yet she is also an apocalypse program buried by the Central System for ten thousand years. The two set out on a dangerous journey through data graveyards in search of the key to restarting civilization, only to gradually discover that Ling is the original error-correction program Mi Ye created from his late mother’s neural chip, and that every time they meet is a fated cycle following the reset of the worldline.
“You want me to forget you through billions of cycles, but your name has already been carved into my code.”
