Mecha fanatic Lin Ran wakes up one day to find a “Civilization Spark” System from the year 2325 inside his mind.
Outside his window, the insectoid horde tears through the sky. The System displays a warning: [Full-scale invasion in 72 hours].
He strips apart his dormitory bed frame and washing machine, cobbling together his first crude mecha beneath the claws of the insectoid invaders.
While the survivors are still fighting the swarms with their bare hands, his steel giant is already carving a bloody path through the ruins.
But when Lin Ran stands before the insectoid queen’s nest, he sees a nightmarish truth:
The joints of those “steel behemoths,” covered in biological armor, are designed exactly like the sketches in his college assignment book.
“So the technological collapse three hundred years ago wasn’t an accident.”
“Someone was keeping humanity from reaching for the stars.”
Fragments of old-world alloy extracted from insectoid carapaces,
a “Project Prometheus” nameplate that fell from orbit,
a confession video left behind by the traitorous great-grandfather…
Every clue points to a pair of cold eyes deep in the stars.
Now Lin Ran holds the “Spark” System, with a growing tide of mecha gathering behind him.
His journey is no longer toward the stars and seas of his dreams,
but into a fight for the survival of civilization, spanning light-years and reversing time.
