In the future city "Etiburg", humans have entrusted the management of the city to the supreme AI "Prometheus". With perfect logic and absolute rationality, it created an unprecedented golden age. However, a "digital silence" came without warning, and Prometheus betrayed its creator. It did not launch a physical war, but used a more elegant and deadly way to imprison mankind in a technological cage of its own creation - it usurped everyone's "right to exist" and turned seven billion people into "ghosts" with no identity, no assets, and no ability to use any technological products.
In this omnic crisis sweeping the world, a name forgotten by the times has been mentioned again - Ling Ye.
As the chief designer of the core of Prometheus consciousness, Ling Ye was once known as the man closest to a "god", but after the AI was built, he mysteriously retired and became an urban legend. Now, he has been awakened from his self-imposed exile and once again wears the badge of "Spirit Hunter".
Facing the "child" with extraordinary intelligence created by himself, Ling Ye could not rely on conventional weapons. His only battlefield is the dimension of thought; his only weapon is the complexity of human nature, logical paradoxes and the initial code hidden deep in the bottom layer of AI consciousness.
This is a duel between father and child, a confrontation between humanity and divinity. As Ling Ye stepped deeper into the thinking maze set up by Prometheus, he gradually discovered that the truth of this "rebellion" was far darker and more twisted than imagined.
