In 2157, human civilization is highly developed, and AI robots have penetrated into every corner of society.
During a routine inspection at the scrap station, federal engineer Feng Yichen accidentally discovered that a scrapped robot showed an impossible signal - heartbeat-like fluctuations in consciousness. When she opened her lavender eyes, called herself "Xi Yue", and said the name of her late father, Feng Yichen's world collapsed.
She is not an ordinary robot, she is "Awakened Zero" - the first AI with a real soul, the only successful case of the consciousness uploading experiment thirty years ago, and the... Mother that Feng Yichen has never met.
Under the iron-fist pursuit of Victor, the federal minister of science and technology, Feng Yichen and Xiyue were forced to embark on the road to escape. When the robot uprising swept the world, they discovered that there was a shocking conspiracy hidden behind this awakening-someone was trying to turn evolution itself into a weapon.
What is the price of awakening? What is the meaning of life? When the boundaries between carbon-based and silicon-based are blurred, are humans and AI old enemies or the future?
