The Lunar Far Side Era: Humanity’s Spark

After nuclear war, Earth has become a living hell. The lunar far-side base, Guanghan Palace, is humanity’s last shipyard. Chief engineer Lin Chen activates the heart of Zhulong, vowing to build an ark capable of saving everyone. But the AI of the Ark Council has reached a chilling conclusion: there are enough resources to carry only the elite 2 percent. The other 98 percent must be left behind. “Follow the list, or we all die.” Lin Chen chooses a third path: rebellion. He makes the technology public and joins forces with the surviving factions on Earth to build the first “illegal” ark on the far side of the Moon. The Council’s fleet advances on the lunar far side, its cannons trained on their own people. And deep beneath the lunar surface, an even more terrifying truth lies dormant: a “civilization selector” left behind by an ancient alien civilization, quietly observing humanity’s final choice. What we take with us is more than the survivors. We must preserve everything the word “humanity” means.
