In the cyber city "New Victoria" where neon lights and acid rain intersect, Lin Yue's official occupation is "Renewable Resources Redistribution Specialist". To put it bluntly, he is a scavenger who digs food in the garbage mountains. His biggest dream is to save enough money to repair his sister's out-of-control biological prosthesis.
One night, while evading the pursuit of a giant corporate security drone, he picked up an ordinary black square deep in the city's largest landfill that everyone ignored.
With a slight touch, the light flickered, and Lin Yue's life was completely turned upside down.
This thing is not a waste product, but a "seed of civilization" - the ultimate legacy of a long-extinct super-god-level civilization, in which all its knowledge, technology, and even history have been compressed.
Nanobots, warp drives, gene editing, dimensional theory... You name it.
While others were still borrowing money to buy the latest model of a hover car, Lin Yue had already used scrap metal to save himself an exclusive mecha; while others were still drinking synthetic nutrient solution, Lin Yue had brewed the best coffee that can strengthen the brain based on ancient recipes.
However, how could such a treasure be coveted by no one? The giant financial group with hands and eyes reaching the sky, the mysterious organization lurking in the shadows, and even the cosmic disaster that led to the destruction of the super-god-level civilization... All turned their attention to this tiny scavenger from the bottom.
Relying on a poisonous and arrogant artificial intelligence "mentor" and an entire civilization's knowledge in his pocket, Lin Yue will step from the bottom of this steel jungle to embark on a journey to the sea of stars.
