In the Tianqiong Space Station, Chenxi District Algorithm Engineer Gu Yuan lived a regular but numb life until an abnormal data flow triggered an alarm, allowing him to discover the secret behind his father Gu Changfeng's "experimental accident" ten years ago. The code words of poems, biological keys and experimental notes left by his father revealed the terrifying truth of the Prometheus project - the space station was actually a giant social experiment site, where residents were implanted with neuromodulators from the embryonic stage, and their memory, personality and even destiny were all controlled by algorithms. With the help of Lin Wan, a female worker at the Twilight Zone Recycling Station, Gu Yuan sneaked into the abandoned old port area and encountered imprisoned experimental subjects and memory reconstruction cabins. He also discovered that the promotion of elites in Genting District was actually a profound personality transformation. Facing the system pursuit and the complicated position of technical director Shen Bing, the two passed through dangerous pipelines and blockades, and rushed to the core of the main control column with the key. They must make a decision within seventy-two hours: expose all data, or eliminate the intervening modules and exchange chaos for real human choice.
