A long time has passed since the nuclear war ended, a long time since medical resurrection was invented, and on Earth, populated by hundreds of billions of resurrected people, the last days have been officially announced. The ruins of former cities are adorned with portraits of the holy pig Gertrude, to whom Elon Musk first implanted a chip back in 2020. Now all of humanity is chipped – however, the word 'human' is banned by Democracy, just like the word 'God.' Billions of humanoids are ruled by the 'Artificial I.' Thus, the last days pass in anticipation of the end of the world. Young scientist Alpha Omega and his assistant are searching for a way to save humanity, but they realize that this can only be achieved by challenging the omnipotent AI. Margarita Simonyan wrote a novel about how the Apocalypse will actually happen — in strict accordance with biblical prophecies. In an interview, the author reveals that this book has become the main work of her life: 'God exists, and there is no death. But only for those who hurry to earn paradise and immortality, for there is almost no time left.'
