[Hardcore History × Cyberpunk × Technology Flow Romance]
Chen Mo, an Internet operation and maintenance engineer in 202X, traveled through time and became a disciple of the alchemist Xu Fu. He discovered that the Great Qin Empire was actually an "ancient system" that had been running for five hundred years - the First Emperor of Qin was a semi-mechanical life form, the Terracotta Warriors and Horses were "mass production machines" equipped with psychic cores, the burning of books and Confucianism was "formatting the C drive" and "anti-virus cleaning", and Xu Fu's eastward journey was actually to deploy a "distributed server" in Penglai.
Facing the countdown to "system shutdown" in 210 BC, Chen Mo must join forces with the female medical officer Xia Wujie to "replace the system core without restarting." And his opponent is Zhao Gao, the former time traveler who tried to "patch" twenty years ago and eventually turned into an "extraterritorial corrosive body".
"Maintaining the system is not a worship system. The prerequisite for fixing bugs is to admit that bugs exist."
When technical ideals encountered the torrent of history, when the "hot repair" plan ran into the conspiracy of "formatted restart", Chen Mo and Xia Wuqi wrote a romance between technicians among the bronze gears of Longmian Palace - "You are my only compatible interface", "My failover plan can't work without you", "Until you stop waiting".
——This is a story about system and humanity, efficiency and fairness, immortality and death. It is also a hard-core love letter to all technical people.
