On the third day after Lin Ci is diagnosed with schizophrenia, he destroys a city.
Then three black SUVs pull onto the school grounds, and a group of men in Zhongshan suits salute him.
“Comrade, the country needs you.”
It turns out he isn’t sick. He has a gift.
He is a Corrector, the only person on the path of human evolution capable of “correcting” the collective consciousness.
Over the past thirty years, 47,000 battles of consciousness have been fought in silence.
Some try to make an entire city believe the apocalypse is coming. Others want an entire nation to forget its history.
And Lin Ci’s ability is China’s sharpest weapon in the war for consciousness.
“From today on, your battlefield is no longer the classroom.”
“It is the sea of human consciousness itself.”
As the West uses cognitive memes to erode national borders, and dark web hackers try to rewrite the memories of entire peoples,
Lin Ci stands before the colossal stone of Guixu, his fingertip touching the collective subconscious of billions.
He says, “I decree that China will never forget.”
That day, the nation’s fortune takes form, and a dragon’s roar shakes the world.
The Global Consciousness Monitoring Center sounds the alarm all at once:
“Unique ‘Corrector’ awakening detected. China has secured the right to define civilization.”
“You’re going to send me to a psychiatric hospital?”
“No. I’m going to become the last bastion of human consciousness.”
Welcome to the Era of Consciousness Warfare.
