# "Embers of Doom: Stardust Fall" content focus of the first level "The Rising Red Tide"
In July 2147, an abnormal pulse signal was transmitted from the Orion spiral arm, accompanied by a high-energy particle flow that struck the earth, ushering in the end of the world.
Astronaut Lu Chengyu and intern Xia Xiaoyu of the "Tianyan-3" space station encountered signal anomalies for the first time, but were hit by particle flow and the space station was damaged. The two made an emergency return in the return capsule, deviated from the orbit and made an emergency landing in the Hengduan Mountains. They struggled to survive with key signal data. They encountered red mist and mutant biological threats along the way, and were later rescued by scouts from a secret military base.
In the Shanghai Quantum Computing Laboratory, top scientist Lin Mo (Lu Chengyu's fiancee) is debugging the "Fuxi" quantum system. A sudden flow of particles disrupts power supply and communications, and the city falls into chaos. She and her assistant Chen Yang urgently uploaded the experimental data to the underground database in an encrypted manner, but were trapped inside and found a strange warning code. They also faced a crisis of depleted food and water sources and intensified ground shaking.
In the underground military base, Commander Li Jianguo and Chief Scientist Professor Zhang received Lu Chengyu and confirmed the sad news that the ground control center was destroyed and Chief Engineer Zhou Ming died. After analyzing the data, it was discovered that the signal was an "early warning" sent by an alien man-made device, and the coordinates pointed directly to Lin Mo's laboratory. The base urgently debugged the "Beidou 7" satellite, tried to contact Lin Mo, and protected the "Fuxi" system - a technology related to controllable nuclear fusion that may be the key to mankind's fight against the doomsday. A doomsday struggle centered on data, technology and survival has officially begun.
