In 2027, the voice virus wiped out human language ability and turned words into ashes. Geneticist Lin Mo discovered that he carried the ancient "silent gene" and became the only immune person to the virus. When he rescued Su Ying, a sign language teacher who escaped the catastrophe due to being deaf and mute, he was shocked to discover that her gestures could activate genetic potential - the last fire of human civilization, hidden in the forgotten silent world.
In order to prevent the Sonic Sect from using infrasonic waves to brainwash the remaining humans, the three formed a "Silent Alliance":
► Lin Mo uses genetic maps to fight against viral fission, at the cost of his memory fading with his abilities;
► Su Ying compiles the classics into sign language codes and endures the nerve pain caused by brain wave overload;
► Genius hacker Chen Yao uses AR technology to project civilized classics and resists the burning of texts with a torrent of data.
When the truth is revealed under the Antarctic ice - this disaster is a forbidden trial of interstellar civilization on mankind, and the "silent gene" is meant to be a protection rather than a shackles. The military launched a plan to burn the city, and the sect summoned the giant beast "Mother Skeleton" that swallowed sound waves. The survival of mankind entered a hundred-day countdown.
They choose the cruelest redemption:
Su Ying became the "living firewall" carrying the human corpus, and Lin Mo injected genetic medicine into the clouds. When survivors around the world used their 48-hour right of voice to collectively recite the Book of Songs, the Constitution, and the Three-Body Problem, the sound waves turned into a dazzling barrier. At the last dawn of the Hundred Days Agreement, a new civilizational agreement was born: "thinking reading" of 10,000 words per day is an oath for the continuation of civilization.
In a silent world, the most deafening thing is the unspoken protection.
