This book is a science fiction novel. It takes the sudden disappearance of sea water and the subsequent replenishment of water by the planet as the baseline. Through various thrilling journeys of the protagonist Yuan Youli, it shows the indomitable spirit of mankind, overcoming numerous difficulties and obstacles, striving to rebuild the earth after disasters and continue the fire of human civilization. The nuclear reaction in the Earth's core stopped after reaching a critical point, and the temperature continued to decrease. This caused surface water to continuously penetrate into the deep layers of the Earth. The most significant result was that the oceans disappeared and various anomalies occurred one after another. Yuan Youli is a retired soldier who has worked on offshore oil platforms for many years and is also a core member of the China Emergency Center. He was used to facing all kinds of accidents. At this time, he was shocked to see that the sea water began to disappear without control, and it brought about a series of unexpected and irreversible consequences. The crude oil tanker connected to the oil platform missed the opportunity to leave the port when the sea water receded and ran aground. What makes the situation even more serious is that as the hull deforms, crude oil begins to leak, which may cause fires and explosions at any time. The captain decided to abandon the ship, and the crew was trapped in a muddy area, surrounded by dangers. Just as they were successfully escaping, the fire soon engulfed the giant ship and soon affected the oil platform. They were in danger again when several cultural relic dealers who specialized in stealing precious porcelain from ancient sunken ships in the South China Sea held them hostage and wanted to take the helicopter, which was a key rescue equipment, for themselves. Yuan Youli responded calmly, resolved the crisis, and took the crew away safely again...
