1. Alien forces: "Reaper" civilization, non-carbon-based life, with diverse forms (from energy bodies to biomechanical complexes), technology far beyond that of humans, and its core capabilities are related to "microscopic material manipulation" and "energy absorption". Their goal is to completely "format" the Earth, converting it into their energy and material reservoir.
2. Ancient clues: There once existed a highly developed civilization (or received help from aliens) in the ancient times of the earth. They foresaw the threat of the "Reapers" and left behind a "legacy" of confrontation. These legacies were mostly spread across the land of China in the form of various "Chinese jewelry" (such as jade congs, bronze mirrors, silverware with specific patterns, etc.). Chen Mo's expertise became the key to deciphering these clues.
3. Level of struggle:
· Individual struggle: Chen Mo's team encounters, infiltrates, and cracks traps with various alien units.
·Technological struggle: Human scientists (such as Su Rui) try to analyze alien technology and silver substances to find weaknesses; Chen Mo is responsible for interpreting ancient technology and looking for joint points.
· Global game: events escalate, governments, militaries, and secret organizations of various countries get involved, cooperation and suspicion coexist, and political struggles and existential crises are intertwined.
· The mystery of time and space: The grudges between ancient civilizations and the "Reapers", and why they chose "jewelry" as the inheritance method, will become one of the biggest mysteries throughout the entire text.
