The protagonist, Lin Jin, is a corporate grunt at Xingchen Heavy Industries.
After a workplace accident, he unexpectedly gains the ability to control atoms.
He plans to use his power to quietly take under-the-table jobs and save enough to pay off his loans.
But when a black-clad squad kicks down his apartment door, Lin Jin realizes the company has had its eye on him all along.
That night, he wipes out the entire squad with just three atoms.
On the run for three years, he joins a nomadic bounty-hunting crew, earning rewards and growing stronger while lying low beneath Yongye City. Step by step, he monopolizes the black market, brings the gangs under his control, and takes command of the cybernetic arms trade, becoming the uncrowned king of the underworld.
When he returns to Xingchen Heavy Industries and fights his way from the tower’s base to its summit, he stumbles upon an even more terrifying truth.
