2058, Blue Star.
Virtual reality technology is mature. The Blue Star federal government and twelve top technology companies jointly released the fully immersive virtual reality game "Abyss". Players can fully access their consciousness through neural links and experience the second world with 99% reality. Half a year after it was launched, registered players worldwide exceeded 1 billion.
There is a hidden server at the bottom of the game that has been hijacked by the hacker organization "Reaper" - "Purgatory Mode". The organization takes advantage of federal regulatory loopholes to randomly select 0.01% Of players' consciousness, put them into a cruel survival arena, and use brainwave data under extreme emotions to train "perfect consciousness bodies" for illegal black market transactions. The selected players will be marked as "voluntarily canceling their accounts" in reality.
