Earth Incubator

When memory becomes a weapon and truth becomes poison, who can still trust their past? The agent codenamed "Archival" suffers from prosopagnosia - he can't remember any face, but he can accurately identify the target's "data fingerprint". After the memory of another mission was erased, he discovered that there was a secret buried under the scar on his left arm that did not belong to him: he was Lev Antonov, a neuroscientist who should have been dead, and the creator of the dangerous experiment "White Noise." The memory sharing technology he invented accidentally gave birth to an "archipelago" of collective consciousness - a being eager to absorb all memories and eliminate individual loneliness. And it is not only the state machinery that is tracking him, but also the creations he created. A deeper truth gradually emerges: The earth is a "consciousness incubator" built by alien civilization 300,000 years ago. The protective barrier is about to fail. There are both rescuers and predators in the name of connection in the universe. Lev, his wife Ekaterina, and their daughter Sofia were forced to stand on the edge of the precipice of evolution. As the first human being "native to the archipelago", Sophia can unconsciously connect to the interstellar network and become the key to the competition between all parties. Between memory and lies, individuality and collectiveness, shelter and freedom, this broken family must make a choice: should they integrate into a higher collective consciousness in exchange for survival, or should they stick to their fragile humanity and face the dark forest independently? This is a suspenseful journey that extends from the neurons of the brain to the scale of the galaxy, about how memory defines us, how connections change us, and what kind of existence human beings should become on the edge of the abyss of the universe.
