Sequence Reconstruction: Starting by Mending the Land

Shen Qingzhou is a low-ranking repairer in a frontier city. Because of an old injury to his right hand and rejection by his sequence, he is judged to be “incapable of ever advancing.” While repairing a chipped blue-and-white porcelain bowl, he unexpectedly awakens the ability known as “Flawed Resonance”: he can sense the emotions of antiques.

This ability lets him restore antiques to a quality far beyond that of other repairers in his sequence, but it also brings severe emotional backlash. Meanwhile, he discovers that his adoptive father, Shen Huaigu, has been quietly protecting him all along, and the truth about his old hand injury gradually comes to light: it is not an injury, but a mark showing that he has been “chosen by an antique.”

When a data abyss invades the frontier city, Shen Qingzhou enters a restricted zone for the first time. Using Flawed Resonance, he awakens a spiritual-grade antique and successfully protects the city. At last, he breaks through the bottleneck of the Second Sequence and sets out on the true path of a repairer.
