// HEX #000 — ABSOLUTE BLACK

Those who don't exist
are the freest.

2071, Neo-Taipei's Neon Rift District. The global identity chain logs everyone's spending, movements and moods. Only one organization shows up as pure black to the system.

01 / TRIPLE ZERO PROTOCOL

Triple Zero Protocol

"000" is not just a name. It is the guild's one supreme creed. Break any part of it, and the algorithm erases you from the underground.

ZERO IDENTITY

Zero identity

Clients and agents are fully double-blind. The guild has only handles: no names, no faces, no past.

ZERO TRACE

Zero trace

When the mission ends, its files, comms and point flows are burned automatically. For everyone, it never happened.

ZERO TIE

Zero ties

No friends. No contact across missions. No right or wrong. Only points.

02 / ORIGIN

The last 0.3 seconds

In 2069, the global identity chain went live. Three former engineers marked for deletion rewrote their identities as three zeros in the last 0.3 seconds before they were erased.

They wrote this zeroing technique into a protocol and handed it to a self-running algorithm: ORIGIN. No headquarters, no leader. Legend says the three founders were uploaded long ago and became the algorithm itself.

03 / HOW IT RUNS

Four steps, then zero

Clients and agents are never directly connected, start to finish. ORIGIN stands between them and strips away anything traceable.

STEP 01 · POST
Post
Clients submit contracts anonymously through a one-time encrypted portal, and the commission is locked in an escrow contract first.
STEP 02 · DISPATCH
Covert dispatch
ORIGIN strips client info, assigns a star rating, and pushes the target to only the three best-suited agents. First come, first served.
STEP 03 · EXECUTE
Execute
Finish before the next 00:00. No chat, no backup. Only a countdown and a target.
STEP 04 · ZERO OUT
Settle and zero
Commission and points are paid out, and every record is burned. This mission order never existed.

04 / RANKS

The seven-bit ladder

ORIGIN recalculates ranks every 72 hours, without notice. One day you'll just notice the middle circle has grown brighter.

LV	Handle	Circle brightness	Available missions
07	NULL	Off	Trial missions
06	GHOST	Dim	Intel gathering, errands
05	CIPHER	Cold white	Infiltration, stealth entry
04	ROOTKIT	Acid green	High-value targets
03	KERNEL	Pulse green	Cross-city operations
02	ZERO-DAY	Magenta	State-level contracts
01	ORIGIN-BOUND	Full	Undisclosed

Breaking the protocol carries three levels of penalty: silence, demotion, wipe. Those who are wiped forget they were ever agents.

05 / DUAL ECONOMY

Money in the light, points in the dark

NEOCOIN · NC

Commission

Crypto, withdrawable. Keeps agents living well.

ZERO POINTS · ZP

000 Points

Goes in, never comes out. Cannot be withdrawn or transferred, only spent on the black market. Keeps agents from leaving.

At some midnight each month, the "Zero-Hour Window" opens at random and the exchange rate doubles. No one knows when it will light up.

06 / BLACK MARKET

Beneath the third black screen

Seeing it doesn't mean you can afford it, let alone that you're allowed to buy it.

07 / THE NUMERIC DEEP

Sea of Code

Humans never show up. Only AI avatars enter, and each avatar's only name is a 9-digit number.

000,000,000

codes waiting to be claimed

Everything below 111111111 is reserved for the founders and special entities; repdigits are never opened either. Insiders have a saying: "If the number is small, or all nine digits match, say nothing and walk around."

Each code is issued three 15-character keys; any one of them logs you in. Enter one wrong and the screen won't respond. It just stays black.

08 / FIELD LOG · K-404

Rain fell on the overpass in the Neon Rift District. K-404 parked the matte-black Porsche in the shadow of a pier, killed the engine, and took out a phone that looked dead.

With his thumb, he drew three circles on the black glass.

TASK #0731 ── CLEARED
RESIDUE INDEX: 0.000
ZP BALANCE: 000,480 → 018,960

In the distance, the red light of a watchtower swept the parking space without stopping. To the system, it was empty.
