[Owen Bryant](/core/contents/element/characters/bryant.md), the Chairman of the [Multi-Metaverse Council (MMC)](/core/contents/element/organizations/mmc.md), possessed formidable influence and abundant resources, enabling him to master the art of manipulating others. However, he remained unaware of the ironic fact that he himself was being exploited by [Saariyah Ayyad](/core/contents/element/characters/saariyah.md), considered his right-hand.

Since the disappearance of [Yichen](/core/contents/element/characters/yichen.md) and his sister [Chunyan's](/core/contents/element/characters/chunyan.md) parents, who were members of the council, Bryant regarded them as special individuals. In reality, during his early childhood, Yichen successfully deciphered and unlocked the ancient code of a material digitizer, authored by a mysterious figure named [Sho](/core/contents/element/characters/sho.md). This achievement made the practical implementation of the material digitizer possible.

Normally, Bryant and Yichen held regular meetings, but one day, when Yichen was scheduled to visit Bryant's office, he failed to show up on time. This raised suspicions that Saariyah, Bryant's close aide, might have abducted him.

On the other hand, Chunyan, Yichen's sister, and Maya learned about Yichen's disappearance. They realized that Bryant might have sent Yichen to Saariyah and become unwittingly entangled in her manipulations. Confronted with this shocking truth, they made a resolute decision to join forces with the [Unchained](/core/contents/element/organizations/unchained.md) movement to unravel the mysteries of [BIIO](/core/contents/element/organizations/biio.md) and Sho and rescue Yichen.

When the destinies of Bryant, Saariyah, Chunyan, [Maya](/core/contents/element/characters/maya.md), and [Kent](/core/contents/element/characters/kent.md) converge, a new story begins. Each of them pursues their own objectives, engaging in a new battle under the colossal shadow of BIIO. This conflict revolves around the contest for the Metaverse and will significantly impact their individual fates.
