The Wandering Earth: I Have a Plunder System

On the eve of Earth's braking maneuver

The United Government organized a lottery. Those who drew a winning ticket would be sent to an underground city. The rest could only wish themselves luck.

The rules were simple: everyone had an equal chance to draw, regardless of age, gender, or status. A pass could not be inherited, transferred, or given away.

“Half the population of Earth is going to die. The United Government can only take half of us. Who do you think you are, Thanos? Fuck your mother!”

“People with money and connections will build their own shelters, of course.”

“What, you went to one of those top universities? Get lost. I only want graduates from Lanxiang Technical School.”

“Anyone know how to operate an excavator? Three meals a day, room and board included. You can even bring your wife and kids.”

“Haha, son, we’re saved! Your dad graduated from Lanxiang, and excavator operation was my major. The Meng family promised they’d let our family of three into the shelter once it’s built.”
