Civilization Fire

In 2157, humans discovered "alien ruins" hundreds of millions of years ago underground on Mars. After the ruins were activated, 108 "gravekeepers" randomly selected from around the world were involved in the "Civilization Tinder" game. The core rules of the game are cruel: every 72 hours, 108 people must complete a "civilization jump" - through puzzle solving, combat, and collaboration, to upgrade the civilization level by one level; if they fail, all members' memories will be cleared and they will start over. The protagonist Lu Zhao is the last "civilization restorer" on earth. He awakens the "civilization retrospection" ability in the game and can briefly read fragments of other people's past life civilizations. In the game, 108 people come from primitive tribes with different civilizations, the steam age, the civilization of cultivating immortals... They are forced to form a team and struggle in dungeons such as the "Maze of Ruins", "Corridor of Time" and "Battlefield of Faith". Every jump is the collision and integration of civilizations; every failure is the fragmentation and reorganization of memories. Lu Zhao must find a transition path that allows 108 people to truly "symbiosis" on the edge of the collapse of civilization - because the end of the game is not victory but for all the fires of civilization to bloom new flowers in despair.
