“When the nine outfits become one, the Gate of Heaven will open, but what lies beyond may be hell.”
Lin Chen, the lowest-ranked “skinless adapter” on Alliance Star, had been treated as a good-for-nothing for eighteen years. On the night the demon tide struck, a nightmare demon drove him to the brink. His ancestral pendant shattered, and silver-gray nanothreads frantically burrowed into his skin. A languid woman’s voice exploded in his mind:
“Little thing, I’ve slept for five hundred years, and the first thing I see when I wake up is you about to die. Fine, guess it’s my bad luck...”
The first forbidden skin awakened.
The price of its power was “personality erosion.” Every time he used it, the skin’s consciousness took another step toward his soul. When the erosion reached 100%, he would lose himself forever.
On the run, he met Lina, the demon princess imprisoned for four hundred years; Aileen, the cold-faced heir to K/DA Akali; and a chubby, talkative tech geek.
They broke into the Weaver’s ruins and uncovered a shocking secret from five hundred years ago:
Of the first nine adapters, eight had been chained to the Throne of the Starry Sky. Only one had survived, barely. That person looked exactly like Lin Chen.
“The first generation has been sealed away. The ninth is about to awaken. Be careful, stay vigilant, and do not repeat the mistakes of the past.”
The Council was hunting him, the demons were watching hungrily, and an eye deep in the Void slowly opened. Lin Chen only wanted to survive, but he was dragged into a game that had been unfolding for five hundred years.
Watch as a useless boy dons nine battle skins and fights the malice of the entire universe.
