Thousands of years ago, Cen Zhi was the only true name mage of all elements in the world. He could hear the true names of all things and command the ten elements. But he happened to hear the ancient "hunger" deep in the foundation of the world, and because of this, the most trusted speaker tampered with the magic circle, was charged with destroying the world, and was thrown into the void. His sentence was one thousand years.
Thousands of years later, when he woke up, the world had already changed. Magic has become a taboo legend. The neon lights of the floating city stay on all night long. Human beings rely on prosthetic transformation and urban AI to survive. The once magical network has been transformed into a torrent of energy and data. And he is the only "living antique" mage in this cyber apocalypse.
