Not praying for ten strings

In a world dominated by seven super-corporations, the Longevity Species that always occupied the pinnacle of power didn't allow for the enactment of written laws. The Floating Islands of prisons delimited by lines on the map, where resources would inevitably run out in the future...
People yearned for the birth of a true "Hero," yet they cynically awaited the fall of a Hero from grace.
As long as one was hailed by the media as a Hero, even murder could be forgiven, and every word they said would be adored. Even high and mighty Elves dared not provoke the edge of a Hero.
But if a Hero of the past committed even a minor offense, the moment their image crumbled, the forgiven sins would flare up like an inextinguishable furnace, and the stars of yesterday would instantly become unforgivable criminals...
"—Come become a Hero, Russell."
The most vicious criminal in the world thrust a knife into the boy's hand, whispering a low enticement.

Russell was already a world-class prosthetic engineer.


Upon hearing this, he immediately grasped the line of thinking of Mental Heavy Industry.


Other parts of the body could be exchanged at will because only the brain was the center of thought. After other parts were replaced, as long as they could deceive the brain, compatibility could be maintained. Their self always resided in the brain, still in its original place.


But what about transplanting a "prosthetic brain"? How could the consciousness in the brain be transferred to a mechanical prosthetic brain?


This was the greatest difficulty and the limiting challenge faced by the technology of "cyber eternity" envisioned by the cyber church.


—And the Monkey-faced Eagle was a breaking point.


He had completed the consciousness upload. With technical support from the Elf, he had mimicked this lost "Giant Dragon Technology"... although the success rate was still unknown.
