The Rust-Bone Feast of Godslaying

Flesh is weak? Mechanical ascension? No! In this cyberpunk hell, I choose to become a god through flesh and blood! Fang Cheng is a worthless guttersnipe from the wasteland district, scavenging for food in the trash. When the scum from the Electronic Tower crushes his only family member, they crush the last shred of his humanity, too. As he teeters on the brink of death, a cold voice explodes in his mind: [Godhood System activated! Mission one: Cast off the shackles of your mortal body!] Tear off every cheap prosthetic on his body? Be reborn amid the agony of flesh ripped apart? This System has to be insane! But Fang Cheng takes the gamble! He tears off the battered prosthetics that symbolize his humiliation, enduring the agonizing pain of having his flesh and bones carved away, all to seize this one chance to turn his life around! When his flesh begins to scream and his bones burn! A hellish mass of tentacles rips steel apart! A violet-gold sword beam cuts through neon! He crawls out of a mountain of corpses, dragging his newly reborn body, brimming with terrifying power, and delivers his ultimatum to the scum from the Electronic Tower: “You took my prosthetics? I’ll rip out your spines!” “You killed my family? I’ll wipe out every last one of you!” But revenge is only the beginning. Klein, a mysterious information broker, approaches him with a bizarre prophecy: “Brother, want to pull off something big? Like… killing William Atlas, the guy at the company called Icefield who thinks he’s a god?” Zhao Fengting, a girl whose origins are shrouded in mystery, can soothe the rampaging abyssal power within him with her singing, but it also draws the attention of something far more ancient. And then there is the cold will lurking deep in the flood of data, the entity known as the “System.” It promises power, but whispers of blasphemous madness, too…
