Sparkling Earth: Echoes from Deep Space

In the year 12200, the People's Federation was in a period of overall prosperity. Chen Mo, the duty officer at the deep space monitoring station, took another look at the screen at 3:47 in the morning - the two waveforms judged as "noise" by the AI ​​completely overlapped. This discovery involved him in a secret that spanned eight hundred years: there was some kind of existence in the void beyond the boundaries of the star field that was devouring the energy of the void sea. It's not a natural disaster, it's not an alien invasion - it's the immune response produced by the virtual sea system against overexploitation by humans. The civilization of the last era perished as a result. From Yin Xu to Shen Wang to Yin Buhui, three generations of scientists spent their entire lives tracking signals, understanding threats, and creating deterrent weapons. But when the weapon is finally completed, they discover that the real answer isn't a stronger weapon, but learning to live in peace with the void. Eight hundred years later, the same signal reappeared, three times stronger. Can humans make different choices this time?
