Name: The Frost-Gas Era
Author: Steel Afterglow

Synopsis

Set in the world of Frostpunk, with a frozen, steampunk aesthetic.

When Li Nian was reborn into a world where the technological tree had gone terribly awry, he awakened a suspicious System. What sparks would fly when modern technology collided with steampunk in the apocalypse?

He builds an army, establishes an administrative system, and transforms the social order.

What lies behind the mysteries of history? Is there more to the coming catastrophe than meets the eye?

Years later, the name Father Li Nian is renowned across the land.

Apocalypse – steampunk – farming – war – sci-fi – the protagonist isn’t a self-sacrificing saint, and his values aren’t warped.
