Cuttlefish That Loves Diving

In this latest work by Lord of the Mysteries author, Cuttlefish That Loves Diving, be prepared for a well-thought out and detailed apocalyptic, cyberpunk world with a setting superseding Lord of the Mysteries!
Our protagonist, Shang Jianyao, is crazy—literally crazy, at least that's what the doctors said. Living in a huge, underground building of Pangu Biology, one of the few remaining factions in this apocalyptic wasteland known as the Ashlands, he acts in unfathomable ways that's head-scratching, comical, and shrewd. So is he really crazy? Probably.
He has a grand dream: to save all of humanity.
Intricately tied to this dream is something everyone in the Ashlands believes in: Deep in a particular ruin buried away by danger and famine, a path leading to a new world awaits. To step into the new world, one only needs to find a special key and open that certain door.
There, the land is bountiful, as if milk and honey flows freely. 
The sunlight is dazzling, as if all coldness and darkness are washed away. 
The people will no longer have to face desolation, monsters, infections, mutations, and all kinds of dangers.
There, children are joyous, adults are happy, everything is fine as they are supposed to be.
Every Antiquarian, Ruin Hunter, and Historian roaming the Ashlands knows: That's the New World.

Mainframe… Jiang Baimian had specially learned about this, so she knew what it meant.

The 'mainframe' meant the city's brain, a brain in all senses of the word. This was an important goal for the Old World to have smart cities.

The City Intelligence Network Control Center they had previously seen in Swamp Ruin 1 was its embryonic form.

A complete smart city had all the networks, driverless cars, and non-private smart bots controlled by the 'mainframe.' Through complicated algorithms, the corresponding resources were allocated to calculate the best routes. All the latent problems that past cities suffered from were eliminated at the root.

At this moment, Jiang Baimian saw Shang Jianyao raise his right arm and wipe the corner of his mouth from the corner of her eye.

"…" She was momentarily speechless.

After a few seconds, she sighed with emotion. "I never expected a 'mainframe' to be in operation before the Old World was destroyed."
