When the world goes silent, Chris doesn’t panic—he diagnoses the problem. Power grids fail. Cities go dark. And something new begins to hum beneath reality itself. The Lei-line System has awakened. Chris, a maintenance technician who’s spent his life balancing pressure, flow, and failure, is given a power that follows one absolute rule: Energy cannot be created or destroyed—only exchanged. Water for heat. Force for fracture. Life for growth. Every ability builds pressure. Every mistake risks collapse. As monsters crawl out of myth and the System reshapes the world into something far more dangerous, Chris and his found family are forced to adapt—or be consumed by it. What begins as survival quickly becomes something else. Dungeons emerge. Power evolves. And the System starts watching. Together, they’ll learn to fight, to build, and to control the forces inside them… before those forces tear them apart. Because in this world, power isn’t given. It’s managed.
