Ling Mo accepted a high-priced commission from the mysterious woman Ye Tong: to extract a "root memory" that was tabooed by MAB from the brain of a vegetative person. During the extraction process, Ling Mo discovered that this memory was related to the establishment of Yi City and a huge conspiracy that had been covered up. What is even more shocking is that this memory seemed to be closely connected with some of his own lost childhood memories. As a result, he was hunted by both MAB and mysterious forces, and was forced to form an alliance with Nighteye. He traveled between the dark alleys of Shen Yuan and the floating towers of Sky Dome, uncovering shocking secrets about the city, himself, and the nature of memory.
