When the bronze gears of Sanxingdui bite the golden foil of the Sun God Bird, the prehistoric era beyond the twenty-four histories suddenly restarts.
What archaeologist Chu Zhaonan woke up during his exploration was not only the ancient Shu mechanical civilization that had been sleeping for three thousand years. The bronze hexagrams under X-rays decoded the true coordinates of the Nine Tripods cast by Dayu; the thirteen seconds of the quantum clock running backwards revealed the Mayan crystal skull floating in the silvery river of Qin Shihuang's mausoleum; and the infrasound waves of the Liangzhu jade cong were awakening the particle collider in the underwater city of Atlantis.
In this escape across five mythical eras:
- A priest who can decipher the Oracle virus code, with the Sumerian star map flowing in his blood
- A descendant of a family of cultural relics from the Republic of China, holding a fragment of "Shui Jing Zhu" that records cosmic string theory.
- An agent implanted with the Shang Dynasty Yu Chan bionic eye, whose retina reflects the dynamic password of the Gate to the Ruins
From the wormhole at the top of the bronze sacred tree to the dark matter reactor under the Yin Ruins; from the four-dimensional folding point predicted by the Mayan calendar to the anti-gravity soil recorded in the "Book of Mountains and Seas" - when modern quantum physics and ancient sacrificial rituals collide at the 30° north latitude, mankind finally sees clearly the countdown to doomsday engraved in the genes of civilization.
At this moment, the time and space ripples of Jiuding have arrived in 2023, and there are still seven rings left in the final growth rings of the bronze sacred tree. Choose to restart Nuwa's genetic coding, or start Hou Yi's annihilation program? In this game that was set up five thousand years ago, the stakes are the survival of the entire human history.
