When he wakes up, overworked office worker Lin Mo finds himself in a living hell.
Torrential rain, shattered limbs and ruins, bones strewn across the wilderness, not a chicken heard for a thousand miles. This is the bloody, chaotic Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, where all order has collapsed.
Before he can come to terms with reality, deadly rebel troops sweep toward him like locusts.
In this desperate situation, a mysterious screen called the Grand Infrastructure Lord Assistance System (G.I.A.S.) activates in his mind.
It grants neither divine weapons nor immortal arts, but it can see through all things:
Scan the ruins to mark hidden food and water that could save lives;
Read people's hearts to uncover their potential and loyalty;
Plan every inch of land and optimize it into an impregnable fortress;
Analyze chaotic intelligence and predict trouble before it strikes.
This is the ultimate tool for seeing through troubled times and building order.
From the start, he has only himself and a heap of ruins.
Clutching his plans, Lin Mo leads desperate refugees as they carve out a foothold among the broken walls and rubble.
He has no kingly aura, only scientific planning, blueprints far ahead of their time, and resource management precise enough to be cold-blooded.
Improved plows break new ground, optimized canals bring fresh water, and simple fortifications keep enemies at bay.
From families forced to eat their own children to granaries gradually filling;
From collapsing at the first blow to building the first fortified settlement.
The "Dragon Abyss" he establishes becomes the only haven and beacon of hope in a world littered with corpses.
But the light of order is bound to draw an even deeper darkness:
Greedy warlords intend to swallow this juicy prize;
Bloodthirsty Khitan cavalry covet the rising stronghold;
And outlaws and ambitious schemers stir restlessly in the shadows...
Within, the rapid expansion also breeds human complexity and suspicion.
Infrastructure Reigns Supreme
