In the interstellar era, human civilization is at the bottom of the cosmic food chain and struggling to survive. Xia Anyu, a waste recycler, accidentally awakened the "devouring core" from an ancient super civilization during a job. This core is fused with his dilapidated recycling ship, the Snail, giving it the ability to devour everything and evolve infinitely. From a shabby spaceship that everyone disliked, to a starry behemoth that roams the universe. Xia Anyu relied on his constantly evolving battleships to search for advanced materials, analyze alien technology, and step on the enemy's wreckage to lead mankind to the top of the stars step by step.
