Su Yi's life was torn apart by a death message. The neighbor's flower pot will end him at three o'clock in the afternoon - this is just the beginning of the "death script" tailor-made for him by the huge organization "White Dove". While struggling to survive, he discovered that he was actually the "first-generation sample" of his father's forbidden consciousness experiment, with the key to the "source point" that attracted covetousness from the universe imprinted in his brain. The sender of the mysterious text message, former assistant Li Hanxin, has the ancient mission of "Candle Keeper" to rescue him from the edge of annihilation and throw him into the interstellar cemetery "Rust Belt Cross".
Carrying the name of patricide and holding the key code left by his mother, Su Yi fled between the steel ruins of cyberpunk and the whispers of Cthulhu's starry sky. He must find his father's last contact "Smoking Gun", activate the legacy of the Spark Project, and put on the "Candle Dragon Armor", a god-killing weapon that can fight against deep network pollution. The fragments of his father Su Mingyuan's consciousness are still imprisoned in the stasis cage of the Deep Network, and his life and death are uncertain; the premature death of his mother Lin Wei hides the dark truth that touches the "Stardust Whisper". Li Hanxin's candle-keeping mark resonates with his source mark, guiding the evil path to the "cemetery star" at the entrance to the cage. There, he will face the "feeders" who feed on civilization consciousness, and decide whether to redeem his father's remaining soul or end the interstellar fire of resistance ignited by his parents. Every choice he makes awakens the horror of the sleeping starry sky, and the ancient mark flashing on Li Hanxin's arm seems to also hide the unknown motto of the universe...
