Lu Chen died at 3:07 a.m.
An ordinary food delivery rider. A monthly salary of 4,300 yuan. 310,000 yuan in online loans. Working overtime until two every morning.
His death should have been like a drop of water falling into the sea, vanishing without a sound.
But at that very moment, the screens of 7.3 billion people around the globe went black at once.
Blood-red words appeared: [Holder of Legacy No. 001 has died] [Civilization Inheritance Program initiated]
Five legacy abilities, ranked D, C, B, A, and S, were randomly distributed among humanity.
Some gained the power to control time, at the cost of forgetting their memories.
Some gained the power to trade for lifespan, at the cost of the world around them rotting away.
Some gained the power to read minds, at the cost of losing the ability to tell themselves apart from others.
And Lu Chen awoke in a graveyard of civilization.
He discovered that he was the source of the legacies. SSS-ranked. The only one.
He could reclaim anyone’s abilities. He could delete anyone. He could change the rules.
But each time he used his authority, he lost a little of his humanity.
At 100, he is fully human. At 0, he is no longer human.
Now, he is at 98.

“I’m no longer human. But I still want to be one.”
Lu Chen
