    Reader note

    The Blazing Sun Starfield comprises sixteen star systems, with only four rocky planets barely habitable for humans. Only four human starships escaped, mostly consisting of logistical support personnel from engineering expeditions—essentially a group of elderly, weak, women, and children. From that point on, humanity's entire technological and cultural system was lost. Fortunately, they still remembered some terms and concepts, such as pi, quadratic functions, calculus, quantum mechanics, supercomputing, and breaking through barriers. In literature, most accounts came from oral tradition, but these were largely recounted in the form of sentimental soap operas. Our ancestors compiled all the terms into a book, leaving their descendants "worse than those in a vegetative state!" An Xin said, "A vegetative state is simply the loss of intelligence, thought, will, emotion, and other purposeful activities; it's a special human condition similar to that of a plant. The standard term for the living dead is zombies; their consciousness is completely controlled by the alien insect queen, reducing them to puppets and vassals of the alien race, and they will indiscriminately attack their fellow humans. The living dead are characterized by white eyes, deathly pale skin, festering bodies, unrecognizable faces, and blood-stained, rotten clothes—truly a gruesome sight."
