However, as the technology spreads, strange anomalies begin to surface—city lights flicker in cryptic patterns, people experience visions of an icy world, and unexplained energy discharges occur. Scientists soon uncover a terrifying truth: Coolithium is not just a power source but a gateway to another dimension. When the world's largest Coolithium storage facility is activated in 2145, it triggers an interdimensional invasion. Ethereal beings emerge, using the energy network as a conduit to enter our reality. As chaos ensues and energy systems collapse, humanity fights back with a reverse electromagnetic pulse device. But before the final strike, the entities deliver a chilling revelation: “You think you are using Coolithium, but it is using you.” The battle ends with the rift sealed, but at the cost of the global energy infrastructure. As civilization struggles to rebuild, one unanswered question lingers—should humanity risk unlocking Coolithium’s secrets again, or has it merely delayed the inevitable?
