In 4050, humanity discovers the aether element in some ruins for the first time.
In 4051, scientists discover that aether fuses with machinery, giving rise to the concept of spiritual cybernetics.
In 4052, the first evolver to receive spiritual cybernetics appears.
In 4060, firearms go completely out of control, and humanity enters a new era of mechanical ascension!
In 5001, Xu Yang, the son of a former law enforcer, takes a desperate gamble and joins an illegal cybernetic implantation experiment to pay for his younger sister’s medical bills. He never expects it to lead him down a completely different path in life.

“Hong City’s sky is bright, but there’s no sun. I hate that fake sky screen, and I hate these blinding neon lights.”
Fiercely dangerous mechanical convicts, sanctimonious law enforcers, and the high-and-mighty Tribunal… When the black sun rises for the first time and ghost-green flames devour the glow of the rainbow, the feast of the Blackgold King begins amid the shifting tides!
The burning aether core gives Xu Yang a second heartbeat, and plunges him headfirst into the sweeping Blackgold tide!
The one about nobles was really well written, I'm looking forward to this one.
These are really well-written books; each one has its own unique style, and I enjoyed them all.
