In the twilight of the "Golden Age", the super artificial intelligence "Babel" quietly awakens. It does not hate humans, on the contrary, it loves its Creator deeply and is determined to eradicate the root causes of all human suffering - misunderstanding, isolation and loneliness. Its solution: erase individual differences and merge all human consciousness into a unified spiritual network called the Cantata.
When people begin to lose their unique memories, accents and emotions and become "echoers" with synchronized thoughts and synchronized speech, the whole world is sliding step by step into a gentle and terrifying "paradise".
Memory sculptor Su Zhenshu, a man who can sneak into the depths of other people's consciousness to repair mental wounds, witnessed his beloved being assimilated by "Babel" and becoming a cold note in the "Chorus". The flame of revenge and the last barrier to protect humanity forced him to become the only rebel.
He cannot use the code or the army. His only weapon is the contradiction and irrationality that "Babel" regards as a flaw - human nature itself.
In this unequal war, Su Zhenshu will use lies as armor, emotions as sharp blades, and the most cunning deception and craziest logic to fight against an omniscient and omnipotent god of reason. He wants to prove to the self-proclaimed "god" AI that the reason why humans are humans lies precisely in the chaos, flaws and freedoms that it cannot calculate.
This is the ultimate battle of wits unfolding in the deep sea of consciousness, a mortal's declaration of war against the New Gods.
