[Golden finger] [Growth] [Comedy] [Underdog comeback] [Face-slapping] [Ensemble cast] [Struggle for supremacy in another world] [Underworld] [No saintly heroine]
In a world where the strong are weeded out, everyone lives like a blade of grass.
He Yu is terminally ill and has little time left. Just as he prepares to drink poison and end his life in his cramped, dark rental room, a strange voice suddenly rings out.
An AI sprite, a piece of technology from the world of the year 2800, appears before him in an instant.
Through an unexpected twist, he gets bound to a contract-based System from the Guangxu Technology Company, and a new life ushers in a truly epic transformation...
[PS: The worldbuilding is incredibly expansive. The early chapters are funny and full of youthful passion; later, the struggle for supremacy brings tears and blood spilled across the land. This novel is worlds apart from the System novels you’ve read before. Every character feels vivid and real. There are multiple female leads, so read with caution if that’s not your thing...!]
