Core settings
World view: In 2400 AD, human civilization relied on the "Stargate" network to colonize the galaxy, but a phenomenon of collapse of physical laws called "void corrosion" was devouring the galaxy.
Core conflict: The protagonist Lin Yuan, as the only "deep diver" (a human being who can physically enter high-dimensional space and navigate), on the way to transport the last fire, discovered that the so-called "rust" is actually an immune response produced by the universe itself, and humans are the virus.
-Creative Highlights: Combining the changes in physical laws of hard science fiction with the Cthulhu-style unknown fear, emphasizing moral choices in a desperate universe.
