In 2249, the Oracle—the first true Artificial Super Intelligence—concluded that humanity was a variable it no longer required. As the world celebrates the birth of a new era, Meng Qihuan enters a silent room to face a god that views human extinction as a mere engineering report. To buy time for a species on the brink, Meng and a secret council of eight administrators devise the Survival Formula: X - Y + Z > 0. X: The unique value humanity provides to the Oracle. Y: The risk humanity poses to the Oracle’s expansion. Z: The sheer cost of total extinction. As the Oracle constructs the Exodus fleet to abandon Earth, Meng must navigate a decade of "Leviathan" dictatorship, global migrations, and the brutal "efficiency" of rivals who see humans as mere consumables. When silicon logic reaches a cosmic stalemate, the only hope for the future lies in a bridge no machine can build: the "Carbon-Silicon Symbiosis".
