In an era when human civilization spread across the sea of stars, the glory of the past has long been reduced to cold cosmic dust and huge star debris. Ling Xi, a scavenger who made a living by scavenging in the "Xingke Cemetery", lived a life of drinking now and getting drunk the next. He drove his dilapidated spaceship "Rust Eater" through dangerous debris zones, just to find forgotten ancient technologies in exchange for a few pitiful credits.
By chance, he obtained the coordinates of the legendary ghost ship-the top exploration ship "Odyssey" that mysteriously disappeared a hundred years ago. Huge risks came with unimaginable gains, and Ling Xi decided to risk everything. On the bridge of the "Odyssey", he discovered a strange AI core that was completely beyond the understanding of current technology.
When he returned with the core, he accidentally activated it. A fragmented artificial intelligence calling itself "Echo" wakes up in his cabin. This ancient AI carries the truth about a period of human history that was completely erased and a huge disaster that led to the collapse of that glorious civilization.
The activation signal of the core is like a beacon in the darkness, instantly attracting some of the most greedy and dangerous forces in the universe. Both the "Creation Group", a giant enterprise that wants to monopolize ancient technology, and the "Sons of Singularity", a fanatical sect that worships ancient AI as a god, regard Ling Xi as their prey.
A scavenger who just wants to get rich and run away, an ancient AI with incomplete memory, and a broken ship that may fall apart at any time. Ling Xi was forced to embark on a desperate journey. He must hide in Tibet among the stars to piece together the memory fragments of "Echo"
