The year is 2070 and the world is very different from what it used to be.  During a technological splurge between 2020 and 2030, the world advanced into a new age of high-tech.

Wi-Fi is seen as ancient technology, and devices are powered through solar energy, magnets, or dirt.  Transportation has advanced from cars and airplanes, to city-wide teleportation devices and the beginning framework for hovering vehicles.

The United Continent of America (now one country), are in the midst of an intense twenty year war with the African-Arabian Alliance over God-knows-what anymore.

Best friend trio, Lu Han, Kim Minseok, and Lee Ara couldn’t care less about the American-African war.  They were citizens of the currently peaceful China, province of forty year old country Benitar (made up of what used to be Korea, China, Japan, Taiwan, and Mongolia).

Life for the three is simply about surviving high school.

The nerds of the school, the friends banned together after being dumped in the same waste unit on their first day of freshman year.  Now, as seniors the three are inseparable.

They spend entire nights, building “inventions” and “innovations” in Ara’s basement, none of which have worked.

Until somehow one of their failed projects decides to begin functioning (and a bad one too), and the tech heads find themselves stuck in Ancient Egypt 1500 BC.
