After transmigrating into a cybernetic Great Qin, Li Xin becomes an elite soldier, only to be framed by his sworn brother and thrown into the deepest underwater prison, ten thousand meters below the sea: the Black Hell known as the City of No Return!
From the start, he’s about to be beaten to death by the prison boss!
With death just a breath away, Li Xin strikes back and kills a man!
[Ding! Host detected in a ‘prison’ environment. First kill of a ‘criminal’ confirmed. The God-Tier Prison Sign-in System has officially activated!]
[Sign in beside a death-row inmate’s corpse. Congratulations, Host! You have obtained the one and only God-Tier Talent: Soul Devourer!]
What? Devouring a soul lets him inherit everything the dead person had?!
[Ding! Devoured the criminal ‘Scarface.’ Obtained ‘Street Fighting (Proficient),’ miscellaneous memories x1, and +10 Sin Points!]
[Ding! Signed in at the morgue. Obtained 3 ‘Constitution-Enhancement Serums’!]
[Ding! Devoured an Imperial Mechanist. Obtained ‘Cybernetic Augmentation (Master-Level)’!]
[Ding! Devoured a fragment of the God of War Bai Qi’s soul. Obtained ‘Killing God Domain’ and ‘Art of War (God-Tier)’!]
While the outside world believes Li Xin has long since rotted away in prison, he has already devoured a million imprisoned souls and become the sole king of the City of No Return!
The First Emperor: What? A riot in the Black Hell? Send the Black Ice Guard to suppress it at once!
Li Xin: No, it’s time for my million-strong army of soul-steel mechs to break out of prison!
