In 2036, the cyberpunk city "Xinhai City". Lin Ci, a third-rate programmer whose coding style was ridiculed as "outdated" and was ruthlessly laid off, is worried about next month's rent. At the same time, a global wanted order worth tens of billions swept the city - to hunt down the legendary father of AI, "Prometheus", who caused the global network collapse ten years ago and has now reappeared.
In the cold steel jungle, Lin Ci was forced to embark on the road to escape. Not only does he have to evade the double pursuit of humans and AI, but he also has to unlock his dusty memory. Is he a hero who saves the world, or a demon who destroys civilization? When he discovered that the "Destruction Lock" he had personally set to protect mankind was counting down, there was not much time left for him. While he must regain his identity, he must find a way to coexist in the future for two species that are about to break out into a full-scale war.
