In this cold city made of data and steel, everyone is an involuntary cog. Gu Yunzhou, an ordinary digital information processor, lived numbly in the gray life of 996, until one day, his world was completely overturned.
He began to "see" things that were supposed to be invisible - balls of "inspiration" light floating in the air, golden threads of "luck" wrapped around gamblers, and fragments of gray "hope" peeled off the bodies of desperate people. In his eyes, the entire world has become a huge hunting ground composed of endless "conceptual information flow".
A system called [Eye of Concept] was activated in front of his eyes, giving him the ability to spy on and even steal these abstract concepts. When he gently took away a concept called "superiority" from an arrogant and domineering rich second generation, a mysterious world hidden under the surface of reality revealed its ferocious fangs to him.
Information predators, concept weavers, memory merchants... All kinds of bizarre existences come one after another. In order to explore the truth behind his sister's mysterious death, and to avoid being swallowed up by this crazy world, Gu Yunzhou was forced to embark on a thorny road of plundering concepts and weaving destiny.
He will use the "courage" he stole to face his fear, use the "wisdom" he pieced together to plan a counterattack, and use the "authority" he seized to protect what he cherishes. This is a story about redefining "existence" and "value" in the cold world of data.
