After My Senses Were Removed, I Became a God’s Host

In a neuroscience research institute cut off from the outside world, seven test subjects agree to undergo a "sensory deprivation experiment" in exchange for an astronomical payment. The experiment involves removing every sense: sight, hearing, touch, taste, and smell, allowing the mind to enter a pure state. But after they gradually lose their senses, they discover that their consciousnesses are beginning to connect in strange ways. In the darkness, they can "see" one another and hear each other's thoughts. Even more terrifying, people begin to die, but the consciousnesses of the dead do not disappear. Instead, they invade the perceptions of the others, devouring their Hosts like parasites. They gradually discover that this experiment is not meant to explore consciousness, but to create "consciousness vessels" for ancient parasitic entities to occupy human brains. The last person left alive will become a certain "god's" permanent Host.
