Because of the various evil deeds of mankind, it finally caused a huge catastrophe across the world. The light instantly became an unreachable beacon in people's memory, and the world plunged into a desperate darkness. In order to survive, people had to build huge underground cities so that the last fire of mankind could multiply. This gigantic miraculous city is like the dreamy chicken eggs that gave birth to all things at the beginning of its creation. It is huge and magical. It is buried deep underground and relies on a huge generator to maintain the lighting in the dark. There are countless light bulbs all over the city. In every corner of the city, people are pleasantly surprised by this shining man-made wonderland like the Milky Way. They named their last home after City of Ember, and there is a thriving scene everywhere.
But just like the rise and fall of history, nothing is eternal in the universe. As the city has been in operation for nearly 200 years, the huge generators that maintain the city's electricity are gradually depleted. There are power outages in the city gradually, and the frequency is getting more and more frequent, and the panic about the darkness inevitably begins to spread. As the lights gradually weaken, the flames in people's hearts are gradually extinguished. But no matter how imminent the depletion of energy is, life in the city will continue. Students who graduated from the City of Ember have to adopt a strange way to decide their careers. On the day they graduated at the age of twelve, they will gather in the square and the mayorplayed bywill decide their careers through lottery. From that moment on, no matter what you are assigned to, you All will contribute their lives to the city in this post.
Lenaand Du Enare friends, and it's finally their turn to graduate. Although these two have been childhood sweethearts, they have different ambitions. Lena hopes to be a postman so that she can travel around the city at will, while Dunn hopes to stay underground, intending to research and repair the generator, and solve the crisis of the glimmer city once again bring them to the city. bright. When the two were praying for their ideals, God made a huge joke with them. Lena found out that she had been assigned to the "Pipeline Engineering Group", and Du En was actually drawn to the postman.
Although the pipeline engineering team cannot directly access the generator, it is still responsible for the huge pipeline operations in this underground city, and the scope of work is very similar. So Du En proposed to exchange work with Lena. Out of the desire for work, Lena quickly agreed, and the relationship between the two has been further developed. One day, Lena found an old metal box in the storage room at home. The elderly grandmother at home told her that there was an ultimate secret about the city hidden in the box. Lena and Dunn opened the box together. They were horrified to discover that this was an old drawing, and the content of the drawing turned out to be a road map out of the City of Ember. For a while, both people’s worldviews collapsed. Facing the City of Ember where they lived since birth, They questioned the existence and meaning of this world for the first time. What is the ground world that only exists in the legend, in this gloomy depths of the ground, are we the only city? After the initial shock, Lena and Duen immediately found that they shouldered the heavy responsibility of saving the city. They have to exhaust their wisdom and courage to uncover the secrets in these drawings, save the City of Ember, and find a way out for their people, but time is lost every minute. Due to the professional characteristics of Lena postman, she runs Went through the streets of the City of Ember, delivering even more important letters to important people, including the mayor himself, so she fully demonstrated her wisdom, dealt with politicians, and bought time for Dunn’s research, I don’t know. Is there a new lighthouse in the darkness
