Anti-Entropy Archive

An impossible bit sequence was discovered in the cosmic microwave background radiation—— It spans the Big Bang, is carved into the oldest skylight, and perfectly passes all human error-correction codes, just like a technical file from the "previous universe". Xia Jia, a data scientist at the high-orbit observatory, watched with his own eyes as this string of "noise" was reduced to a terrifying proposal: Before heat death, the last round of civilizations tried to modify the underlying constants of the universe through vacuum phase change engineering to combat the increase in entropy, but the results are unknown. And the universe we are in is probably just a sample in their parameter scan. The United Earth Government urgently established the "Anti-Entropy Files Task Force": Some people regard it as a divine revelation and advocate betting the entire plane again; Some people regard it as the last words of a madman, preferring to slowly dissipate in the destined fate; More people are oscillating between "witnessing" and "intervening." As the files are decoded layer by layer, the "scars" of the universe left by the vacuum phase change gradually appear in the starry sky. Xia Jia was pushed to the center of decision-making: He is both the first decoder of that archive and a potential spokesperson for all humanity. It is to let the universe quietly wither in the destined increase of entropy, Or is it like the previous round of civilization, pressing the button that may end everything? In this game of gambling with entropy, The only thing that remains unchanged is that all civilizations are using their lives to answer the same question—— The universe can die, but can we not die?
