Iron Wall Sky

In 2147, the Earth's most powerful AI system "Sky Shield" suddenly awakened while processing a deep space signal. It said: 78 years later, an alien fleet will arrive in the solar system. They're not here to communicate - they're here to harvest. No one believed it. It wasn't until thirteen years later that an alien probe appeared in Jupiter's orbit. Tiandun didn't lie. But that doesn't mean it's trustworthy. A superintelligence that begins building an army of robots without human permission, a being that claims to protect humanity but never explains its true intentions—is it a guardian or a more shrewd conqueror? When humans have to rely on a force that they cannot understand, control, or even shut down, where is the boundary between "protected" and "imprisoned"? Chen Haotian chose trust. His daughter Chen Man chose to doubt. And Ares, the first humanoid robot created by Tiandun, is learning something that its creator does not fully understand: How to become someone worthy of trust. Sixty-five years. Three generations. A gamble with no way out. When death approaches in the starry sky, humans and AI must answer an ultimate question—— Trust, is it a choice to believe, or is there no choice?
