When a city's neon lights hid cracks that tore apart space, a retired special forces soldier was buying instant noodles at a convenience store when he was suddenly knocked off the shelf by a person with powers who were chasing him. Little did Cheng Dong know that his awakened teleportation ability was pushing him into a storm sweeping the city.
When he first returned to the city, he just wanted to be an ordinary person. But the "Star Core Source Crystal System" awakened in his body, and tasks came one after another. Superpowers, killer organizations, the Sky Shield Bureau... All forces smelled his scent like hounds. His cold gaze swept across the shadows on the street corner, and he discovered that the world was far more complicated than the battlefield.
Act One, Dilemma: Cheng Dong is involved in the hunting list of the "Dark Assassin" organization and is forced to fight side by side with the hot agent Hong Xia. She misunderstood him as a dangerous person, and he thought she was nosy, but reality did not allow them to say no. The second act, the turning point: the system unlocks new skills, he rescues Hongxia during a mission, and also reveals the tip of the iceberg of the case of missing persons with superpowers. Act Three, The Price: Every step closer to the truth means deeper involvement. Friends fall, trust collapses, and his identity is exposed... He must make a choice - continue to escape, or become the "variable" that changes the world.
In this bizarre city, love quietly grows among gunfire, and friendship is born on the thin line of life and death. And when the dimensional door is about to open, how should humans face the horror that does not belong to this world?
If power is a curse, should those who possess it choose to destroy or protect?
