In a future city where technology is highly developed and classes are solidified, Chen Xinghe, an ordinary boy living in the "downtown area" at the bottom, has to engage in the most dangerous job of "garbage gold digger" in order to treat his dependent sister.
By accident, he obtained a mysterious black cube in the wreckage of an ancient starship that crashed. This cube merged with his spirit, giving him an incredible ability to swallow and analyze all matter and energy, and convert it into his own evolutionary data.
Starting from devouring a discarded chip, to analyzing complex mechanical creations, and then to controlling military-grade war weapons. Chen Xinghe's life trajectory completely changed. He repairs the most sophisticated instruments and earns huge wealth; he builds the most powerful weapons to fight against the evil forces that oppress him; he analyzes the genes of life and seeks the ultimate method to cure his sister.
However, the awakening of this ability also involved him in the huge whirlpool between interstellar civilization, super enterprises and the federal government. Enemies lurking in the darkness, threats from ancient times, all surfaced because of his evolution.
Facing many crises, Chen Xinghe took devouring as the cornerstone and evolution as the ladder, step by step from the dust at the bottom of society to the top of the sea of stars, vowing to trample all enemies under his feet.
