Double Star Fire

The stars of the sun and Vega were about to explode, and the civilizations of Earth and Vega had to sign an agreement to protect each other. The two sides exchanged population and technology: humans gave the cultural gene pool, and Vega gave the mysterious energy "fire element". During the cooperation, Li Wei, the chief scientist of mankind, discovered that what the Vega civilization really wanted was the "chaotic" creativity of mankind, and the fire element was not an ordinary energy source. It could read consciousness and hide ancient secrets. An experimental accident caused the consciousness of all participants to be shared, and the deepest secrets of both parties were exposed - Vega concealed a more recent crisis of destruction, and planned to upload its consciousness to humans when it failed; Levi's selfish intention was to save his sick daughter Xiaoyu. The naked truth made them trust each other even more. Then, a cruel truth on a cosmic scale was revealed: the simultaneous decay of two stars proved that they were actually in a designed experimental field. "Fire" is an experimental tool, stars are timers, and an ancient civilization is observing and regularly "harvesting" their consciousness data. Faced with the fate of being used as experimental subjects, the two civilizations decided to resist. In the end, their "imperfect reality" won respect, gained civilized autonomy, and was invited to become new connectors and witnesses in the universe.
