Cyber Life: Struggling to Survive

Someone traveled back to the Cretaceous in a time machine to see dinosaurs, only to discover on the way back that the machine had run out of power and they were stranded.

Chao Baitao entered a transmigration grand prix and transmigrated to a cyberpunk world. Then she discovered that the time-traveling bracelet responsible for her trip was low on power, so she couldn't get back either.

Fortunately, Chao Baitao had Xuanshen, a real god pretending to be an AI, who could help her obtain energy.

The only catch was that Xuanshen didn't answer every call. She preferred to sit back and watch the show.

When she first arrived in the cyberpunk world, Chao Baitao got a new identity: an interrogation officer trainee who had just been hired by a shady company.

Her next assignment was to go to an interrogation room and torture a "traitor"?

Chao Baitao: "Are you kidding me? Am I going to get eliminated as soon as I arrive?"

Xuanshen: "An interrogation? Easy. Just do as I say."

Chao Baitao: "No way, no way. I'm not listening."

After a series of astonishing maneuvers, the interrogation room was left drenched in blood. Chao Baitao passed her hiring test, then promptly quit and took a confidential letter of recommendation to work for the opposing company.

Chao Baitao: "???"

After joining the patrol squad:

Captain: Don't go to the neighboring district.

Chao Baitao: Got it.

Captain: Don't stray too far from your teammates.

Chao Baitao: Understood.

Captain: Don't feed the drifters.

Chao Baitao: ??? (Did she hear that wrong? He must mean stray animals, right?)

One day off, Chao Baitao gave half a ration bar to some poor soul.

Chao Baitao: ???

She navigates the steel jungle and struggles to survive among its eerie monsters.

Dawn will eventually pierce the darkness, and the truth will eventually come to light.

The transmigration grand prix turns out to have been a conspiracy from the very beginning.

Chao Baitao makes a deal with Xuanshen, trading the energy that brought her across.

She will sever the "bond" and shatter this vast conspiracy once and for all.

The male lead's perspective:

When he was young, rebellious, and full of ambition, he entered the transmigration grand prix with grand dreams.

Reality taught him a lesson.

Ten years of living through all the ups and downs had worn him down.

He had long since forgotten the recklessness of his youth.

He met plenty of people who had come through the transmigration grand prix.

One claimed to be a champion fighter, yet became a corporate consortium's hyena in the steel jungle.

Another claimed to be a genius, yet couldn't resist the lure of the uncanny and became a puppet of evil.

Chao Baitao was the most ordinary, most innocent person he had ever met.

"Here, have some." Chao Baitao's smile was as bright as sunshine.

Inside the shabby plastic wrapper was half a ration bar. Watching Chao Baitao walk away with her innocent smile, he took a bite.

"...It's wasabi flavor!"

He thought he probably wouldn't see Chao Baitao again.

One day, two days, three days...N days later.

"Have you decided? Bitter melon flavor or wasabi?" Chao Baitao's smile hadn't changed at all. She waved a hand in front of him, bringing him back to the present.
