Lin Zhou, an ordinary high school student, accidentally used a scrapped satellite receiver to capture a mysterious message from Mars——
"Save Mars, save the Earth."
At the same time, aerospace magnate Elias Vaughn is also constantly invaded by strange memory fragments: red wastes, underground cities, cracked domes, and an approaching war. He doesn't know who these memories belong to, let alone why the message chose him, but the coordinates, technical formulas and disaster warnings are being fulfilled one after another.
In order to find out the truth, Vaughan used "Mars can extend human life" as bait to attract the world's richest people, scientists, engineers and social elites to join the Mars project and start building rockets at any cost.
By chance, Lin Zhou entered this huge and mysterious project. Relying on his accumulated experience in repairing machines and his unique way of thinking, he has repeatedly found breakthroughs in rocket explosions, technological blockades, resource shortages and alien destruction.
However, when humans finally arrive on Mars, what awaits them is not a paradise of immortality, but strange alien creatures, an alien fleet covering the sky, and a planet that is about to be lost.
Only then did they understand: Vaughan had indeed deceived the whole world, but not to destroy the earth.
Mars has never been humanity's new home.
It is the earth's last line of defense.
