The story takes place in the not-so-distant future world. With the rapid development of technology, the structure of human society has undergone tremendous changes. Cities are becoming more and more advanced due to the development of technology, but at the same time, there are more and more dark corners that are unknown. A large number of high-tech robots have been put into use, which not only provide convenience for humans, but also replace a large number of labor. Soon the number of robots was comparable to that of humans, and the world became a symbiosis of machines and humans. The protagonist Tulop (Vin Diesel) is a retired veteran. His retirement career is obviously not rich or happy. He has nothing to do with his martial arts. As a last resort, he switched jobs and became a paid mercenary, specializing in various escort missions.
One day, as usual, Tullop took over a newest task. There seems to be nothing special about this mission, but it is accompanied by another female escort, escorting a mysterious woman across Eurasia. When Tulop first saw this woman at the gate of the monastery, he knew that this was by no means an ordinary woman, and her beautiful face and sad eyes were full of deep sorrow. His hunch was right, the escort route was unusual, and trouble soon followed. Not only did the official police start looking for trouble with them, but as he got to know her step by step, he found out that there was a cult organization that was also eyeing her with bad intentions, because this organization believed that the legendary savior Messiah would Come to the world, and bring great changes to the world. And they believe that this woman is the gestation of the Messiah, but it is necessary to create a new human race through genetic improvement to promote the coming of the Messiah! Along the way, Tulop and Sister Rebecca (played by Michelle Yeoh), who is also highly skilled in martial arts, passed the test and saved them several times, but in the end he learned that there is a terrifying virus on this woman, and its power is enough to destroy all human beings! All of this made Tullop begin to doubt the background of this woman and the looming powerful group behind her. Although the mercenary collects money and acts as a matter of course, and although the mercenary's reputation is above everything else, in the face of a business that threatens his own life, Tullop still wants to quit several times. But Tullop persevered, because he developed a delicate feeling with the mysterious woman. When the final truth comes, all people will face a huge test...
