[1]
Qi Yao was nearly eighteen, and had always thought this world was strange. Two things in particular struck him as odd:
First, everyone in the world said they wanted to die, but kept trying their best to live. Second, despite being one of the lowest-ranking citizens, he somehow carried the ideal of saving the world in his heart.
Later, he understood: these things had been set in his very bones long ago.

In the End Era, humanity's technology had advanced to a terrifying degree. Prosthetic limbs and androids helped the rich achieve transcendence first. From then on, humanity gradually lost its humanity. In other words, evolution had gone astray.
The normal structure of society crumbled, the concept of nations became little more than a name, and monopolies held nearly all the wealth in their iron grip. Civilization and ethics were forcibly reconstructed, while centuries-old souls inhabited young mechanical bodies.
Still, there's no need to worry too much. In the City of Desire, where vice ran rampant, people still found ways to amuse themselves and seek pleasure.
You could still see a burly man in a ragged old undershirt storm into a bar and snap his fingers at the server leaning against a tall stool behind the counter. "Hey, buddy, bring me two bottles."
The unspoken object was only lubricating oil.
They would rather seek pleasure and drink themselves senseless despite their meager lives, constantly numbing themselves, because while high technology brought salvation to a select few, it left most people to suffer.
Over the century of the End Era, rebels appeared one after another. But how insignificant a single person was, and how sweeping and unquestionable the main current of an era could be.
It was amid this ever-thickening gloom, from the lowest and most wretched soil, that a dark blue moth suddenly fluttered into the sky.
Under a million watching eyes, he flew straight toward the sun. The boy looked down at the behemoth and said:
"To hell with destroying the world."

CP: A higher-dimensional derivative consciousness, seme × the human savior, uke
I was born from a false salvation, and countless people's fates wove the path that led me home.
By all rights, I don't have much humanity. I'm not even a person, so how can you expect me to have "humanity"? If you weren't here, the human world would be nothing but a playground to me.
Compassion? None.
Sympathy? None.
Love? Hm... Maybe a little, but only for you.
I can watch humans die one after another without batting an eye, but my love... you seem a little too kind.
Sweetie, we both know changing the world isn't easy... So, what should we do? I really can't muster any pity for humanity, but this wretched place truly doesn't deserve you.
I used to worry that falling in love with 'myself' was strange, so I spent the most passionate days of my romance with my own fantasy. Now that I think about it, this dirty, complicated love is just right for this damn world, don't you think?
So let me stand by your side.
Let me stay with you until death comes.
// Equally matched leads + self-love. The seme has a physical body.
The early story focuses on plot and leveling up, with little screen time for the seme. From the middle onward, plot and romance proceed side by side.
Additional notes:
Main settings: Outskirts / School / No-Man's-Land / Corporation / Space
- An ensemble story. I can only promise that the protagonist will end up as the most badass of them all, but I won't deliberately reduce the spotlight given to the other characters. Friendship is the best!
- A full-on cyberpunk setting. Can't find anything in this niche? Don't worry, I'll take care of it!
- This story is very accessible even for readers unfamiliar with cyberpunk. It's easy to understand, ovo.
- An alternate world, so please don't draw parallels to reality.
- The story is a slow burn, so take your time reading~

Theme: Better to suffer than to be numb.
This article is expected to be completed in July/August. It will be continued from the original article "He drove a tractor to kill across the stars". Please collect the column of Narcissus in Another World.
(I don't know where I saw it, but I think it fits well.) "Gene grading is only a means to resist natural disasters, not a tool to fight against each other." The salvation of 71 has corrected the distortion in execution. Human beings will no longer be stratified and determined by genes, and their fate will be determined. The great savior! In the end, we also witnessed our first friends turning into fans one by one, and the ending did not stop at the time when everyone was alive! 71 The projection of salvation! The hundreds-year-old soul no longer stubbornly stays in the young mechanical skin. Fortunately, You Lanqian didn't dare to imagine how lonely eternal life would be, and the ending of he honestly didn't deceive me. (It's almost to the end when I write the article. I read it in one go. There's not much that makes readers reluctant to read it early. I hope the next one can follow it sooner!) In short, I wish Fox better and better! So much inspiration!! In the future, I will be able to clearly describe the pictures in my mind with words!!
Why is it that every time I think he is unfathomable, I am always laughed to death by his behavior in the next second [crying with laughter]
I just wanted to watch it to kill time, but it was an unexpected surprise. It is very, very good to watch. Although the plot structure is not mature enough, the flaws are not concealed. It is really wonderful. The writing is unexpectedly smooth and wonderful. I want to kiss you to death, madam!!!
Red beans and mung beans made me laugh so hard hahahaha 71 baby is so cute 🤩 🤩
Qi Yao·Full of Violence Version: Mu En, run quickly. It would be great if Lan Qian could be given a golden finger to quickly reach Qi Yao through the dark network thought link. Although there is a flash, it is still very dangerous to go deep into the enemy camp.
Great, shocking, the weight of the word human alone is not enough to describe it in words. The writing is so good 😭 😭 😭
Eppers was unwilling to answer questions about his unconscionable use of money to do things.
Lan Qian! Someone is taking advantage of your lover!
Hahahahahahaha Mu En and Lan Qian are standing together, and when they see Qi Yao's eyes, they will get the wrong meaning hahahahaha
