Winter of Computing Power

Daoistp0naJB
In a world where labor is obsolete, "Compute" is the ultimate currency. Humanity is divided into three species: the pure-blooded Sapiens, the cyber-enhanced Augmentus, and the god-like Digitalis. Zhou Xing, a low-level data scavenger living in the shadows of the NCR-Halo, is sentenced to death by the corporate elite for being an "evolutionary dead end." But in his final moments, he awakens a forbidden, ancient virus that allows him to hijack the very laws of the system. As the physical world crumbles under the weight of "Compute Entropy," Zhou Xing rises from the ruins, armed with humanity's last remaining "Intent." He must navigate the treacherous power struggle between man, machine, and ghost to save a civilization that has already forgotten what it means to be alive. In this winter of cold calculation, he is the only fire left burning. Warning: Survival is not guaranteed. Evolution is the only path.

The Dragons and their allies waged war against the Eldan empire, leading to the third galactic war. The Eldans were defeated, and spared from extinction by being exiled to the continent of Helleny in their birth planet of Depheron. They were forbidden from ever appearing in the galaxy again. Thousands of years have passed since then, and an Eldan has risen to defy the order of the Dragons and their endorsed rulers of the Galaxy. But to stand against the might of the new galactic empire and the more powerful Dragons would require more than mere determination or a large army. It would also require the even more difficult and mythically impossible breakthrough to the unknown realm of Supreme Overlord which the Primordial Luminary attained countless eras past...
