The opening work of the Chinese superhero universe! Chen Dun, former member of the Jiaolong Commando, awakens from an ice coffin with a Dragon Spine Reactor embedded in his spine and nanometal surging through his blood. He is the nation’s ultimate weapon, Xuanjia, and the first target in the Entropy Organization’s plan to destroy the world! As Shanghai Tower trembles beneath the feet of a rampaging mech, Chen Dun uses his own body as a shield to save thousands, only to find wanted posters bearing his face plastered across the country. A Qi-core explosion rocks the Dunhuang desert, where he wields a condensed spear to cleave the mutated monster Hanba amid a sandstorm. In Chongqing, a data plague and a zombie horde lay siege to the city, and Xuanjia forms a defensive line like the Great Wall, holding the nation’s gates. Then the capital’s smart power grid rebels, his best friend Ling Han’s ice claws pierce his chest, and quantum physicist Su Wan vanishes into a stream of data. “You ask how tough Xuanjia is?” Chen Dun rips open the wreckage of his armor and thrusts his iron arm into a fissure in the earth. “A little softer than Shanghai’s load-bearing pillars, but tough enough to stop bullets meant for my countrymen!”
