In the 27th century, humans conquered the galaxy with the help of jump engines, but accidentally awakened the ancient existence sleeping in the abyss of the galaxy - the "Abyss Seed". This is not a physical monster, but an information virus that can silently rewrite physical constants, causing stars to extinguish, planets to disintegrate, and time to warp. Federation colonies fell one after another, leaving only the "Dawn Barrier" - the last bastion surrounded by nine artificial stars, barely maintaining the human fire.
Lin Lan, a survivor of the New Dawn Colony, witnessed his hometown turn to dust due to the erosion of the Abyss. He possesses the rare "zero-latency neural link" physique and was recruited as an "abyss probe" to perform suicide reconnaissance missions. In the barrier, he met the talented abyssal nucleologist Xia Yizhou, a paranoid researcher who believed that the abyssal seeds were the "natural laws" of the universe, and the legendary general Qi Xiao who had suffered from the trauma of the black domain.
The three formed a special operations team, drove the legendary "anti-entropy ship", and embarked on an expedition to the black area in the center of the galaxy. On the way, they discovered that Yuanzhong originated from the original immune mechanism of the universe: preventing any civilization from immortality and forcing a reset of the low-entropy order. Faced with internal betrayal, dissolution of reality and invasion of hallucinations, Lin Lan grew from a ruthless loner to a leader, Xia Yizhou struggled between reason and emotion, and Qi Xiao sacrificed in exchange for hope.
This is an epic about insignificance and tenacity: Can humans modify the rules of the universe and strive for the right to choose? Or is extinction just part of an eternal cycle? In the depths of the star abyss, the confrontation between fate and free will will determine whether the embers of the galaxy can be rekindled.
