Reverberant Scavenger

In AD 2147, human experiments to extract imaginary energy went out of control. Gray entropy fog covers the surface, corroding metal, distorting genes, and polluting memories. The survivors retreated into the underground hive city. From the core level to the abandoned tunnels, the layers were as cold as alloy. If people from the poor want to survive, they can only risk their lives to scavenge on the surface of the earth - searching for "reverberant relics" mutated by the entropy fog of the old era. A chip, a weapon, a piece of data, may be sold at a high price, or it may cause mental breakdown and genetic fragmentation. Lin Mo is twenty-four years old, a D-level scavenger, and his parents have long since died on the surface. He is silent and pragmatic, with scars on his hands and light in his eyes. He has an ability that no one knows about: when he touches a relic, he can trace back the entire process of its creation, use, and destruction, and even slowly purify the entropy pollution in it. But he didn't know that this ability was not innate. The "consciousness anchoring" experiment that his parents participated in turned him into the last living relic - a "master key" that can interpret all the legacies of the old era. The consortium is looking for him, the rebels are chasing him, and the deepest secrets of the dungeon are waiting for him to uncover. And every time he looked back, he was devouring his own memory. When forgetting becomes the price of evolution, will you still remember who you are?
