[Higher-dimensional war + ensemble cast + lighthearted + System-driven + infinite worlds + subversion of tropes + Cthulhu + containment]
My name is Wei Poxiao. I’m a senior majoring in topology in the mathematics department at Jinling University.
Until I was recruited by the Primordial Archives, I thought the world was materialistic and governed by strict rules.
Here, there are Scroll Cultivators who can rewrite the rules once they reach the Ninth Realm, colleagues who use logical erasers to clean up dead loops, and bizarre scroll creatures kept as pets behind the cafeteria.
My partners are the Chief, who can rescue a heroine from a novel abandoned before its ending, and the Deputy Chief, who’s always trying to drag the world down with him.
My daily routine is working with my teammates to shove anomalies that try to crawl out of their pages back onto the shelves.
A power-scaling disaster? That’s the Aleph Gate at work.
A missing foreshadowing? That’s a worldbuilding editor slacking off.
Then one day, I discover a reference book called The Primordial Archives. It says: Ninth Realm, Sacred Descent into the Primordial Beginning, ultimate state: Transcending Divine Scrolls. You yourself are the greatest anomaly, as well as the ultimate containment measure.
I put down the book and look at my colleagues fighting over meat buns in the cafeteria, lost in thought...
So the company I work for is the most outrageous bug in the universe.
