In 2149 AD, the earth's resources were exhausted, the ecosystem collapsed, and yellow-brown sand covered the sky. Human civilization was forced to huddle in underground "cooling warehouses" to survive. In order to escape the despair of reality, people rely on "immersion helmets" to upload their consciousness to a virtual world called "New Realm" to maintain "daily life" in a utopia woven by data.
However, the beauty of the "New Territory" is like a fragile bubble: in reality, the shadows of alien creatures and unknown high-level civilizations are quietly approaching, and the strange energy signals captured by deep space probes have plunged the underground scientific research team into panic - the crisis of mankind goes far beyond resource depletion; at the same time, the computing power and energy that maintain the "New Territory" are also crumbling in the reality of depletion.
Lin Mo, a liaison officer who shuttles between the "new realm" and reality, protects the "daily fantasies" of "neighbor Xiao Ai" and other people in the virtual world, while facing the harsh alarm about alien invasion in the real scientific research area. When the boundaries between the corroded reality sky and the data utopia gradually blur, and when the "daily life" of the "New Realm" has ripples of alien civilization, should humans indulge in the virtual hotbed, or should they burn their boats and find a real way out for civilization on the ruins of reality?
The two-line narrative is intertwined, and the real crisis struggle resonates with the virtual daily undercurrent, composing a future epic about survival, escape and resistance.
