Earth shatters under a cosmic System. Prisons collapse. Monsters claw through broken streets. Charles, once a CIA analyst and now a branded fugitive, drags himself free with a battered baton he took off a dead guard.The System never drops loot for him. It only spits out Shards he can spend in a shop that reshuffles at every sunrise.Each dungeon he seals buys humanity one more dawn and pulls him closer to the mafia that killed his family. From swamp ruins to frostbitten peaks, he swings, climbs levels, and forges his own Dao one fight at a time.
