A hundred years after the nuclear war, Chen Qi is treated with contempt by the survivors living in rusted steel strongholds in the wasteland.
The moment he awakens the ability to “retrace objects”, triggered by touching any relic from the old world, the gears of fate begin to turn in reverse.
The merchant houses that monopolize the steel strongholds also control the old world’s technology, buying at low prices the relics scavengers risk their lives to retrieve. With his ability to retrace objects, Chen Qi breaks through their information monopoly and strikes at the very foundations of their rule.
