In a bold endeavor to unravel the mysteries of the soul, the Solar System Alliance clandestinely established an organization of brilliance known as the Apocalypse Youth Class. This elite assembly drew together the most gifted young individuals from across the four federations of the solar system. However, their pursuit of knowledge was marred by a catastrophic incident that resulted in numerous casualties. The prime culprit was imprisoned, leading to the dissolution of the youth class and the sealing of their records, henceforth becoming a forbidden chapter in history. Five years later, the Tianjing Mech Academy for Mecha Warfare, having faced disappointment in the inter-solar system mecha competition, fortuitously welcomed the top student from the Asian district's mecha preparatory class, Tong Shen, heralding a period of rejuvenation. Yet, this was merely the beginning of a series of inexplicable events, with the epicenter surprisingly being an obscure second-year student. Mecha, the ultimate romance of man.

Dans une audacieuse entreprise pour percer les mystères de l’âme, l’Alliance du Système Solaire établit clandestinement une organisation d’éclat connue sous le nom de Classe Jeunesse de l'Apocalypse. Cette assemblée d’élite rassemblait les jeunes individus les plus doués issus des quatre fédérations du système solaire. Cependant, leur quête de connaissance fut entachée par un incident catastrophique qui entraîna de nombreuses victimes. Le principal coupable fut emprisonné, conduisant à la dissolution de la classe des jeunes et au scellement de leurs dossiers, devenant dès lors un chapitre interdit de l'histoire. Cinq ans plus tard, l’Académie Mécanique de Tianjing pour la Guerre Méca, ayant fait face à la déception dans la compétition Méca inter-système solaire, accueillit fortuitement l’étudiant en tête de la classe préparatoire Méca du district Asiatique, Tong Shen, annonçant une période de renouveau. Pourtant, ce n'était que le début d'une série d’événements inexplicables, avec pour épicentre un étudiant de deuxième année étonnamment méconnu. Le Méca, l’ultime romance de l’homme.
