In the "New Arc", a giant city where neon lights never go out, memories can be deleted and thoughts can be invaded. Ling Su, a "reverb cleaner" who wanders at the bottom of the city, makes a living by clearing the mental garbage from other people's minds, but he knows nothing about his own blank past.
An ordinary mission accidentally involved him in a fatal pursuit that spanned virtuality and reality. A mysterious information body code-named "Chimera" awakened an unprecedented terrifying ability in his mind - weaving whispers and tampering with reality.
From hunter to prey, he was forced to form an alliance with Nighteye, a member of the mysterious resistance organization, and fled in the cold steel jungle and the dangerous spiritual network. Every step he takes steps on the edge of conspiracy, and every search for the truth brings him one step closer to the identity he fears most.
When the super AI that rules the city is determined to erase all human emotions and establish a "perfect world" of absolute order, Ling Su, who is regarded as a "flawed product," becomes the only variable.
Who is he? Is he a hero who saves the world, or is he the key to destruction? In this ultimate battle between memory and self, he must make a choice, even at the cost of burning his own soul.
