Features: Traditionally, the past is history, and yesterday is history. However, Isaac Asimov is different. His Foundation series writes "the history of the future," "the history of the distant future," and "the history of tomorrow!" As a "historian of the future" and America's "Shiji," Asimov uses an "epic" brushstroke and the grand chapters of the Foundation series to narrate the dramatic and stories from the "Galactic Empire," from Foundation (often referred to as "Foundation"), the Second Foundation, and from that "Mule," offering the "history of the future" to readers in a vivid and engaging way. Asimov's science fiction always introduces refreshing and fantastical elements, becoming a model for later science fiction. The reason a master is a master lies in their ability to transform the ordinary into the extraordinary with a single stroke. His three great series—the Robot, Empire, and Foundation—each have their own unique charm. Even now that we are very familiar with his works, we still cannot help but admire his creativity at the time. Back then, the psychohistorian Hari Seldon established the Foundation and predicted that humanity could rebuild the Galactic Empire in a thousand years. Now, 498 years have passed, and it seems that Seldon's plan has been executed perfectly. "Perfect, is it possible?" Gran Torvin, a member of the Foundation, expresses doubt. First, Seldon never predicted that the "Mule" would cause such a catastrophe. Additionally, strange forces continue to control people's minds. Torvin tries to warn everyone about the crisis but is instead exiled. He then embarks on a peculiar galactic journey of investigation. Meanwhile, Strode Pyrrhic of the Second Foundation also suspects that powerful manipulative forces lurk in interstellar space. He therefore sets sail into space, following Torvin's trail of investigation. Torvin finally discovers a planet with unimaginable powers. It seems that the course of history has already surpassed the blueprint of Seldon's plan. Now, only he can decide whether to save the plan or let it crumble to dust.
