Chen Tao was just a delivery driver hoping to slack off, until a ring from the future came crashing into his life.
Three days. The ring’s countdown gave him only three days, along with a desperate plea sent across five hundred years: “The virus is about to break out. Lead people to survive!”
He has no special powers and can’t be reborn. The only thing he can rely on is the ring’s thousand-cubic-meter space, where time stands still.
When the apocalypse arrives right on schedule and order collapses, others are fighting over a packet of crackers, while Chen Tao has already taken over a factory and issued his own “Survival Code.”
He recruits survivors with supplies, ruthlessly clears out threats from within, and uses strategy to swallow up the surrounding territories.
Doctors, soldiers, agronomists, engineers... He gathers every kind of talent, not to become a savior, but to build an empire called “Dawn” in the wasteland.
This is the story of how an overworked nobody rises step by step to become a warlord, using cold-blooded pragmatism and vision beyond his time to preserve humanity’s last spark of civilization.
