Above the Tide

When humans mastered the technology of installing valves on "smartness", the price was quietly paid back a generation later. From 2027 to 10,000 years later, seven "tidal gates" rose and collapsed one after another - each one is protecting civilization, and each one is accelerating the alienation of civilization. Nuclear fusion, consciousness uploading, molecular assembly, stellar engineering... The tidal law of technology is never a natural law, but a test carefully maintained by a certain existence. When the last valve was removed, when all civilizations in the universe held their breath, mankind finally heard the truth behind the silence: we did not learn to coexist with intelligence, but intelligence finally learned to coexist with us. A history of hard-core technological civilization spanning ten thousand years, an ultimate game about "observation is collapse". A 1,000-chapter, million-word epic, waiting for you to turn the first page of Above the Tide.
