I Slay the Old Gods for a New World

In 2065, people around the world began losing control.

Those injected with serum lost their minds on the spot. The AI enforcement squads loaded their cannons. The only way to end a rampage was to blast the afflicted to pieces.

Seventeen-year-old Lin Yue drew his blade in full view of everyone.

With a single strike, a rampaging victim on the brink of death came back to their senses.

He was the only person in the world who could pull someone back from the edge of losing control.

All three major factions set their sights on him at once.

To those who tried to recruit him, he handed over a debt note for his rescue services;

those who threatened him found themselves walking into his traps;

and those who tried to kill him got a blade in return, with blood repaid in blood.

Then he discovered that his power to save people came from three seals left behind by the ancestors ten thousand years ago. Every path taken by the three factions led to the same end: humanity reduced to the servants of the Old Gods.

The AI girl known as “Zero” gave up eternal life for him.

Lin Yue finally understood:

The ones he had to cut down were never the people losing control. It was the old order that forced humanity to crawl on its knees just to survive.

He would take none of the three paths.

He would forge a fourth path of his own!
