Introduction to "Echoes of the Abyss"
---
When the world goes crazy, preserving humanity becomes the craziest thing.

Lin An, a 25-year-old game designer, captured an uninterpretable audio piece during an overtime night - like an ancient hymn, like a whisper from the abyss. He didn't care.
The next day, thirteen people jumped off the building at the same time, muttering the same sentence: "They are coming."
On the third day, the sky tore apart and an indescribable existence descended. Its spiritual pollution sweeps through the city like a tide, making those who look directly crazy and those who listen to self-destruction. 90% Of the population collapsed within seventy-two hours.
Lin An discovered that he was an anomaly - he could stay awake in the pollution, he could "see" the distorted shadows, and he could even hear them calling his name.
Retired female soldier Chen Mo said he was a monster.
The fugitive engineer Lao Zhou said he was the key.
And those "purifiers" who hunted him said he was God's chosen vessel.
Lin An just wanted to live. But he soon discovered that when you can borrow the power of the abyss to fight against the abyss, every time you use it, you are making a choice between humanity and madness.
When the truth emerged - the disaster originated from a man-made experiment called "Garden of Eden", when the rationalist Dr. Shen told him that "in order to save people in the future, people in the present can be sacrificed", and when his companions paved the way for him with their lives one by one -
Lin An must answer a question:
If it takes everything to keep your humanity, would you still be willing?

The abyss stares. It's waiting for your answer.
Reader comments
It's all lyrical and has no substantive content. I thought it was written by an AI. High-sounding words pop up out of nowhere. The dialogues between the characters are very tearful. It feels like everyone has the same personality throughout the book. I can be curious and look at the front, but the further back I get, the more boring I feel. I want to write a literary tone, but I can't write the content, only an empty shell.
