In 2077, it is the tenth year since the world has accessed the "Oasis" virtual ecosystem. This brain-computer interface system developed by "Creation Technology" has reconstructed human socialization, work and entertainment with a neural synchronization rate of 99.9%, And has become an indispensable "second life" for billions of people. However, a sudden "data tsunami" broke the false prosperity - some users were attacked by unknown entities in the virtual space, their consciousness completely disappeared, and their real bodies were reduced to lifeless "vegetative states". The official characterized it as a system BUG, but secretly formed a "firewall" special operations team to block the news.
Lin Mo, a former neuroalgorithm engineer at Chuangshi Technology, resolutely sneaked into the closely monitored core data area of the "Oasis" after his daughter fell into a coma due to a "BUG". He discovered that the so-called "BUG" was actually a native virtual life-"Element Devourer" born in the torrent of code. They feed on the energy of human consciousness and achieve "physical devouring" by tampering with neural connection codes. The top management of Creation Technology has long been reduced to the puppets of the phage, and is planning to drag the consciousness of all mankind into the abyss of code through the upcoming "Global Consciousness Interconnection Project."
