Apocalypse Rebirth: I Am the Mastermind

[Apocalypse Rebirth + Spatial Gear + Decisive and Ruthless + Play the Pig to Eat the Tiger + Plot-Focused]

The protagonist is weak, just an ordinary person. The villains all have special abilities, but the protagonist never does. He mostly operates behind the scenes as a big shot who supplies resources.

Spoiler: It gets a little dark, and since he’s an ordinary person, there’s a bit of angst when he plays the pig to eat the tiger. Go away if you’re a do-gooder or an impatient reader!

In the fifth year of the apocalypse, ordinary man Liu Ye enters the arena to earn money for his family’s medicine. Just as he wins, he’s accidentally killed by a spectator. He falls with a heart full of resentment, only to find himself reborn one hour before the apocalypse begins!

The first thing Liu Ye does after coming to is search for an item hailed as “the greatest artifact of the apocalypse”: a spatial ring!

A few “minor” complications crop up, but he still manages to get the ring.

At this time, the Blue Star Federation is controlled by thousands of families large and small, while awakened ability users are rapidly rising to prominence. Can Liu Ye use the spatial ring to survive in this deadly apocalypse?
