They called him trash. For three years, Chase Lu lived as the most humiliated son-in-law in North City—mocked by his in-laws, scorned by elites, and treated as less than a servant in his own marriage.

The city rejected him, his girlfriend broke the relationship, humiliated him, and dragged his face in front of her new lover in the public because he was poor.

"Mr. Volkov, this is a call from the world Bank," said the voice. "Your mother left you a message in her Safe."

To save his family, he had to stop being human. Twenty-four-year-old Jid has spent his life in the dirt, breathing the rust of the Bulwark slums. As the sole guardian of his younger sister, Sommy, his world is measured in scraps of bread and the hours of backbreaking labor he sells to the powerful guilds. He doesn’t dream of glory; he dreams of a roof that doesn't leak and a meal that doesn't taste like ash. But the world outside the walls is changing. The "Infected" are evolving, and the shadows are growing teeth. When a high-stakes raid into the forbidden zones turns into a bloody execution, Jid is the one left behind. Betrayed and gutted by the monsters in the dark, he should have died in the mud. Instead, something ancient and hungry found him first. Jid wakes up to a world he no longer recognizes. The pain is gone, replaced by a cold, mechanical pulse in his mind and a shimmering gold light in his eyes. A strange, haunting interface now dictates his every move, granting him powers that defy the laws of time and biology—powers that the ruling corporations would kill to own. But the "System" isn't a gift. It’s a tether to an outer-world threat that views humanity as nothing more than ink on a page, ready to be erased. Now, Jid must return to the city that abandoned him, hiding the monster he is becoming while using his new abilities to protect the only person he has left. He survived the death of his old life, but as the hunger grows and the "System" begins to rewrite his soul, Jid realizes the hardest part isn't surviving the dead—it’s surviving the thing he’s turning into. And whatever is coming for him.

The sky cracked, gravity started charging rent, and Dax Calloway woke up in the wreckage of his own city with a class nobody wants: Attrition Tank, a build that gets stronger only after it nearly dies. Six months later, survival isn't measured in food or fuel — it's measured in a number stamped over every living head, and the man sitting at #1 on that number is Marcus Reyes, the soldier Dax bled to keep alive in two different wars. Marcus doesn't purge the weak because the System told him to. He does it because he's convinced it's mercy. And Dax — still just trying to keep people breathing — is now the highest-profile liability on his old friend's ledger. To save what's left of his people, Dax has to climb a leaderboard he never wanted to be on, fast enough to reach the man at the top before the man at the top decides to erase him. But the deeper Dax fights into the Grid, the clearer it becomes: the Leaderboard was never the game. It's a harvest list — and the countdown is almost at zero.
