World background: After the “Great Extinction” disaster, Earth's civilization collapsed. The surface is controlled by radioactive dust, mutated creatures, and marauders. Unknown energy fluctuations are stirring in the planet's core, while prehistoric ruins and alien signals remain in deep space.
Protagonist: Lu Jin, a former mechanical engineer who lost his friends and family in the disaster. Calm, decisive, and ruthless, he lives by the rule “survival comes first.” There is no romance; he focuses on upgrading vehicles and rebuilding civilization.
Golden finger: [Starcore Creation System]. It can break down matter to obtain “Star Remnant Points” and unlock vehicle blueprints, technology modules, and ability enhancements. Its core functions unlock as vehicles are upgraded, and advancement requires absorbing special energy sources such as radioactive crystal cores, planetary core fragments, and stardust.
Vehicle progression: Starts with a modified van, then advances to a doomsday battle vehicle, an aerial fortress, an interstellar shuttle, and finally a stellar-class mothership. Each stage comes with its own weapons, power source, and life-support systems. The vehicles serve as the protagonist's mobile base and core combat assets.
