It tells the story of the struggle and confrontation of former researcher Lin Xia after the gene editing experiment "Prometheus Project" went out of control and triggered the "Big Meltdown".
Three years after the disaster, the world was in ruins, filled with genetically aberrated monsters. Lin Xia carried a genetic sequencer to explore the ruins. When tracking the mutant "barnacles", he found that its genetic sequence contained the "Prometheus" mark and was highly consistent with the "Pandora" virus, the source of the disaster three years ago.
What shocked her even more was that the missing former colleague Chen Mo was "alive" in the form of uploading his consciousness to the global genetic database. It was he who was transforming the aberrations and accelerating the so-called "evolution." Chen Mo held a grudge against Lin Xia for pressing the inactivation button of the experimental subject, and the "antidote sample" Lin Xia carried was actually Chen Mo's "invitation letter." The genetic marker jointly designed by the two on the back of the sequencer hinted at a deeper entanglement.
As the confrontation between Lin Xia and Chen Mo escalates, she gradually realizes that the entire city has become a huge petri dish for Chen Mo, and a contest about the fate of mankind begins.
