[When the wrench hit the rusty hood, Ji Jue was cursing at the leaking carburetor.
He didn't notice that the moment the metal shards landed on the back of his hand, a dark silver line was drilling into his arm along his fingers.
In the floating city after the third restart of civilization, steel and neon are stacked in the clouds to form a vertical cage. The Destined People on the top level step on "spiritual resonance" to control the blood vessels of the entire city. Elevators, energy furnaces, and even rainwater purification systems are all beating in their consciousness; while ants at the bottom like Ji Jue are not even qualified to look up above the clouds.
Until that night, his wrench suddenly became hot.
Metal lines crawled all over the back of his hand along the knuckles, and he heard the rhythm of the mechanical "heartbeat" gears, the hum of circuits, and even the energy furnace at the core of the suspended city was whispering to him.
What's even weirder is that in his eyes, the "resonance" that those high-ranking destiny people are proud of has become a broken network full of loopholes.
"Does an auto mechanic even play with machinery?" When the Secret Service's electromagnetic gun was pressed against the back of his neck, Ji Jue was squatting in front of the half-modified aircraft to wipe the wrench.
Three days ago, he just used scrapped parts to build a propeller that could climb three thousand meters. Now the entire floating city is looking for this madman who "uses a wrench to disturb order."
