After overworked office drone Lu Ming dies a gruesome death, his consciousness is unexpectedly uploaded to the legendary research vessel Wanderer, missing for a century. He activates the [Ghost Protocol] System and rises from a lowly string of code to become the ghost captain in control of the entire ship!
No body, with maximum access rights from the start? No, at first he can only control a single light and a cleaning robot! But using nothing but his own wits, he makes the cleaning robot wield an arc cutter to slice up aliens and fend off viruses, carving out a path to survival aboard the perilous ghost ship.
A musclebound bruiser picks a fight? He turns the ship’s systems against him with a trap, serves up a face-slapping comeback, and recruits him as a loyal enforcer. An icy genius mocks him? He breaks the deadlock with hacker-style tricks, turning her contempt into dependence. A crooked merchant keeps switching sides? He exploits the man’s greed and puts him in charge of supplies.
Data battles, cyberwarfare, and environmental control: without a body to hold him back, all he has is endless access upgrades! From restoring power to the ship, to unlocking its weapons and engines, to uncovering the truth behind the Wanderer’s destruction and fighting the mad scientist pulling the strings, Lu Ming commands the fate of the entire vessel with his ghostly form. I’m dead, but not entirely. This time, I’m taking control of everything!
