In 2047, the world is in the post-AI era of unified governance. Humanity coexists with a superintelligence known as the E.D.E.N. System, but people are gradually losing their power to make decisions. Technology has brought stability, but it has also erased the freedom to choose.
Beneath this orderly facade, a young nuclear engineer named Lin Shichuan discovers an “Echo Algorithm” hidden beneath a quantum-core reactor: code that works only on “living” consciousness. At the same time, he begins receiving fragments of messages from the future: someone is calling for help, someone keeps dying over and over, and one mysterious name appears: Jewel.
He must trace the messages to their source and make a choice between science, consciousness, and fate.
