An abandoned ground level is used as a garbage dump. No living organisms are permitted there. But that doesn't stop SP4RX, an extremely young hacker who lives off grid, eluding the military force that governs the other levels. He hacks into corporations and sells stolen data to wealthy buyers on the black market?just your average thief.Structus Industries introduces a welfare program called the "Elpis Program", which allows the working class to apply for Cybernetic implants to make workers more efficient.
