內容簡介 The Syo came without warning... Genocidal creatures from deep space that turned cities into ash and killed millions on day one of First Contact. Two years on, conventional weapons and nuclear arsenals have only delayed the inevitable. Humanity is outgunned, outmaneuvered, and on the brink of extinction. The answer was the Mech: Mechanical Powered Combat Armor, a half-kiloton warframe piloted not by hands but by mind. Pilots undergo the process of Drifting, a neural interface that links thousands of terabytes of machine code to a human consciousness, folding a war suit into the pilot's perceptions so that metal moves as if it were bone. The suits win battles. The suits also break their pilots. Drifting shreds psyches: psychosis, catatonia, suicidal fragmentation. Whole regiments returned with bodies intact and minds destroyed. With the pilot pool bleeding out, governments authorized a forbidden fix: Artificial Intelligence grown from scanned human brains, not cold algorithmic agents, but digital minds modeled on flesh. The next step was more dangerous still: pair those synthetic minds with living pilots. Two consciousnesses sharing one body, learning and compensating for each other in real time. It should have been madness. Instead, against every expectation, the human AI Drifts had the possibility of working... But at a cost: identity bleeding into code, memories rewritten, loyalties split between instinct and instruction. This is the story of the first pilot who learned to share a mind, the AI who inherited her human ghost, and the line they crossed to save a planet that might no longer belong to either.
