BioForge: Ascendant System Echo

They called it an accident.



Dr. Wei Cheng, a 24-year-old neurosurgeon and the youngest lead systems engineer in the Hive’s Quantum Interface Division, watched the love of his life die during what should have been a routine procedure. A containment surge. A malfunction. A tragedy.

Only, the protocols Wei wrote himself don’t fail. Not like that.

Grief-stricken and hunted, Wei becomes the unwilling host of a prototype QSI—Echo, a sentient neural interface originally designed to support brain-damaged cultivators. But this one is different. It absorbs traits from other users. It evolves. It whispers.

To survive, Wei must do what he swore he never would: steal what makes others strong and burn it into his own flesh.



As the Hive closes in and buried truths claw their way to the surface, Wei uncovers a conspiracy that stretches back decades. Now, guided by his genius and driven by guilt, Wei treads a bloody path through a fractured world of bioengineered warriors, corrupt syndicates, and forbidden cultivator sciences.



In a city where power is bought in flesh and silence is law, he will forge a new kind of strength—one built from broken systems, fractured souls, and the fire of a mind that refuses to die.
