In 2045, the world is on Version 5.0. Algorithms render a life of ultimate luxury, and all of humanity is lost in an artificial happiness built through brain-computer interfaces.
Lu Yuan, a low-level systems operator, is forcibly purged as “redundant data.” Burdened by debt and left to wander the streets, he salvages a black, scrapped server from a garbage dump, and the hidden side of the world explodes before his eyes.
To Lu Yuan’s astonishment, the inside of his battle vehicle is inexplicably 3.2 centimeters larger than its exterior. Within this “physical overflow point,” System rules, laws, and even the constants of the universe all cease to apply!
“If reality is made of code, then I have the highest authority to interpret it.”
The Public Security Bureau’s mechs surround the city? Lu Yuan taps Enter: [Friction coefficient: zero]. The heavy mechs skid like they’re on soap and crash in an instant.
A top assassin launches an ambush? Lu Yuan gives a cold laugh: [Air viscosity: increased by 1,000 times]. The air turns into thick amber, and the assassin is trapped and crushed to death in midair.
From matter to space, from dominion to time. When Lu Yuan reaches the top of the Seven-Tiered Tower of Truth, a global announcement rings out across the world.
He isn’t trying to save the world. His professional instincts have simply kicked in
As a top systems operator, he can’t stand a bug. And this world is the biggest bug of all!
