In a universe where capital is truth, the fate of civilization is determined by market value.
Countless worlds are packaged into "assets" and listed for trading in the cold "cosmic market". Traders travel through bizarre "trading copies" such as immortality, magic, wasteland, and cyberpunk, using their wisdom and courage to engage in life-and-death "acquisition wars."
Ling Xiu, once the most dazzling genius trader in earth civilization, fell from the clouds into the abyss due to a well-planned betrayal. He was burdened with an astronomical trillions of debts left after the bankruptcy of his company "Helios Group", and was judged by the market as an "inferior asset".
When everyone thought that he would be completely liquidated as cosmic dust, he smelled a slight opportunity to leverage the capital structure of the entire universe from a "garbage world" that no one cared about.
This time, he not only wants to regain everything he lost, but also uses the bones of all betrayers to build a ladder for himself to the throne of capital.
"The market is ruthless, but I am more ruthless than the market."
——Ling Xiu
