Wolff, a professor of history at Cambridge, was ostracized by the academic community for his insistence on the "Antarctic Nazi" hypothesis and was forced to retire early. He chose to make a desperate decision and accepted the invitation from the bizarre variety show "The Ultimate Reveal" to join the Antarctic expedition as a "conspiracy theorist". This became his only chance to verify his lifelong theory. This scientific expedition team made up of climatologists, freelance journalists, and UFO enthusiasts suddenly encountered a storm. After the ship crashed, they were forced to go deep into the Antarctic. Then an entrance hidden under the ice quietly appeared. His academic hypothesis has finally been verified: humans have established a "rational utopia" under the ice sheet, and this group is plotting a research plan that can change the course of civilization... When rationality is pushed to extremes, where will human nature go? The most secret truth in human history is buried under the ice sheet.

"Civilization is a lie we are willing to die for." Science fiction writer Liu Mo accidentally entered a "science fiction variety show" and suddenly found that he was already at the decision-making center, personally promoting a contact plan that would determine the fate of civilization. When the "messenger" embarks on a long journey of 380,000 kilometers, when all scientific language loses its effect, civilization must find a way to prove itself. Humanity's first bet finally opened the door to communication, but then encountered the devastating sentence of extraterrestrial civilization-- Humanity has no right to exist and must choose between self-destruction and destruction. As a result, civilization is forced to participate in a blind bet, and everything on the gambling table is a bargaining chip. The only thing we can add is an ultimate secret that has been buried until now. It's not a sure-win trick, it's just a bet that may lead to a chance of survival or even greater destruction. When all winning rates are impossible to predict, when all options are exhausted, human beings will finally have to answer the only question: How much should we pay to survive?
