Reboot: Mechanic

In the year 2139, the world changed. Fundamentally and irrevocably. Everything happened too quickly. The sky cracked like an egg and armored dinosaur-like monsters lurched out of the fissure. The split, though small at first, quickly widened. Within a few short hours, these beasts had overrun the world. Countries, even those who had been enemies for centuries, sounded a global alarm. Political differences were cast aside as humans scrambled to find a solution—any solution—to what became known as the Great Disaster 1.0. Human experimentations began, first in reluctance, then in earnest. As days turned into weeks and weeks into months, failure rates remained high. Desperate for results, global authorities started turning a blind eye to how experimental subjects were sourced. Countless victims were kidnapped and trafficked to state-run laboratories. Shi Tian was but one of them. But unlike those who died nameless, in pain, and unrecognizable, he had the fortune of surviving after being injected with humanity’s last hope—an integrated chip. Except… the chip remained dormant. It seemed that certain circumstances must be met before the chip could be activated. What those circumstances were, even the scientists in charge could not answer.

Clash of Heirs

Olivia Harrett and her subordinate soon went to the highest floor that Horology Restaurant had to offer. Today was a rare meeting where each of the heirs of the five families gathered to discuss an important matter. 

"Which room are they in?" Olivia Harrett turned her head at Robert Cook and asked informally. 

"Replying to the young lady, they are at-"

Before Robert Cook could continue his words, Olivia Harrett waved her hands and clicked her tongue. 

"Forget it, wasting so much time when I ask a simple question." She coldly said and walked around each room, opening them up one by one.

Interrupting each person that is situated in their room, it was clear that some of them were irritated and furious. 

After all, this was the highest floor that only certain people with enough influence and qualification can reserve.
