Rusty Starburst

In the apocalyptic wasteland where the rust disaster engulfs civilization, the decadent mechanic Liam and the military robot "Bess (BST-001)" are forced to form a symbiosis. When the decaying metal plague erodes life and distorts the laws of time and space, the two go deep into the ruins of the taboo "Polaris Project" to find the legendary star source core that can reverse the increase in entropy. Liam fights against cold logic with his flesh and blood, while Beth struggles at the boundary between programming and awakening. They traveled through the collapsed laboratory and the rust-infested underground labyrinth, and uncovered the truth covered up by the military amid betrayal and sacrifice—Rust was an out-of-control god-making plan, and the core of the Star Source was both the fire of salvation and the seed of annihilation. When the final decision comes, the blue light of the machine ignites the fuse for mankind, and the flesh and blood turns into an annihilation pulse that tears apart the darkness. The rusty foundation collapsed in the collision of order and chaos, and the last starburied deep in the ruins pulsed again in absolute nothingness... This is a duet of annihilation and rebirth, an epic written by humanity and machinery in the ashes of civilization.
