In the neon city "New Victoria" of 2077, giant corporations are the sky, and mechanical prosthetics are part of humans. Ling Feng, a low-level data courier, accidentally glimpsed the ultimate secret of the world during a near-death mission - mortals are all codes, and gods... Are programmers.
A betrayal caused him "death", but it also made him awaken. A mysterious "system" comes online in his mind, giving him the authority to see into and tamper with the data flow of reality. From then on, he became a "bug" in the perfect chess game of the "Digital God".
Being hunted by the company he once worked for and being suspected by the mysterious "Number Weaver" resistance organization, Ling Feng had to learn how to use this god-like power on the edge of a knife. Accompanied by an AI partner who is sharp-tongued and a bit off-kilter, he survives among corporate cyborgs, network demons and various number-weavers. As he uncovered the conspiracy layer by layer, he discovered that his most unique ability was to plant "loopholes" in the gods' codes and rewrite their game rules.
He is no longer a chess piece, but a ghost that disrupts the chess game, a variable in the network, and a "code god" walking in the world. But when the tide of power pushes him to the top, a terrifying question also arises: In a world made of code, when the ultimate "bug" appears, will it cause the entire world to be... Deleted with one click?
