No Heartbeat: I Staked My Life in a Gamble

Shen Jian has no heartbeat, but he is still alive.

The moment his younger sister catches the eye of a powerful man’s son, he awakens the “Predator Sequence”:

Anything he can see, he can conquer; anything he can feel, he can plunder.

The revolver he steals from the “Vitality Casino” misfires on all five shots;

The metal heart-core cut from his chest is half divine fire, half vitality;

The ability he inherits from a corpse makes him the “Godslayer,” beyond the Seven Gods.

Li Yuan wants his heart-core. Tian Liang wants his vitality. The God of Life wants nothing to do with him.

Behind him, the whole network of District D23 is hunting him;

Before him, the leader of the Ruin Nest says, “The thing in your heart is my teacher’s.”

Shen Jian grips the gun in his hand. “I don’t believe in gods. I only believe in the game of chance in my hands.”
