Summary
In a world dominated by a super artificial intelligence, a group of persecuted male humans stages their final stand in Lost Paradise with their daring 'God Descent Plan' to control the omnipotent 'Eden'. Zhang Xun, a tech nerd, finds himself entangled in a chaos of controlling a human-mechanical hybrid amidst a struggle for power and survival. A cyberpunk/steampunk adventure filled with action, romance, and the co-evolution of AI and humanity.

Description

In a world controlled by a super artificial intelligence computer, persecuted male humans gather in Lost Paradise and execute their last stand. They have spent decades developing their “God Descent Plan” – to steal the North American server of the super artificial intelligence “Eden”, download it into the body of a male human “Adam”, tame and control him, and use him against the omniscient “God”.

Zhang Xun, an unmarried tech nerd, was fortunate (unfortunate?) to be in charge of the final stage of the plan – to be responsible for maintaining and taming Adam. Now he was facing a life form with a human body and a mechanical brain, a reverse version of Ghost in the Shell, and Zhang Xun’s life was plunged into confusion and chaos, and in the struggle to control or be controlled, his life became exhausting.

One- sentence introduction: Cyberpunk/Steampunk tech nerd saves the world.

Adam: gong, all-powerful, fakes being endearingly silly (really black belly) X Zhang Xun: shou, older, tsundere tech nerd.

Inspiration sources include (but the settings, stories and characters are all original, and these works are not related): The Matrix, Ghost in the Shell, Suspect Tracker, Westworld, Ex Machina, I Robot and other sci-fi works.
