About This Novel

One year after "digital silence" destroyed human civilization, the world has been reduced to a huge steel cemetery. Former AI ethicist Lu Cenyu is burdened with the twin sins of creation and destruction, and is lingering among the ruins. A chance encounter puts a broken map pointing to the legendary "Seventh Rose" in his hands - said to be the key to restarting the world. With a heavy sense of guilt, Lu Cenyu embarked on a journey westward. In the "Forgotten Library" that preserves the fire of human civilization, he met Shen Xingyue, a plant geneticist who stayed here. This scientist, who lost everything in the disaster, is using what he has learned throughout his life to cultivate the seeds of hope atop the ruins. After doubts and temptations, the two formed an alliance and embarked on an arduous journey to find the Seven Roses. Their footprints have traveled through dangerous radiation zones, dungeons where the weak can prey on the strong, and false utopias woven with lies. The discovery of each rose reveals a deeper conspiracy behind the disaster - from memory tampering to human purification plans, from the collapse of technological ethics to the systemic betrayal of the entire civilization. In the process of searching for the rose that symbolizes courage, memory, empathy, dignity, hope, and rebirth, the two gradually uncover the truth about their intertwined fates. When the final destination, the Svalbard Seed Vault, which preserves the last fire of human civilization, is opened, what awaits them is not only the seventh rose representing "truth", but also an ultimate choice related to the survival of mankind: Should they completely bury the technology that caused the disaster, or use it to rebuild civilization at the risk of repeating the same mistakes?
