In 2070, the fully immersive game The Forge of Myriad Gods sparked a worldwide frenzy of human evolution with its “Life Resonance” System, which fed 15% of players’ stats back into reality. The three regions of the continent of Calradia, the Exiled Lands, and the Isle of Siptah formed an adventure map where the virtual and real worlds intertwined. Lu Chen, owner of a gym on the verge of bankruptcy, was accidentally dropped into the unreleased Exiled Lands due to equipment failure, where pain was set to 100%. Guided by the creed “Strength is truth,” he began his comeback by doing whatever it took to survive and plunder.
He turned his experience managing a gym into expertise in running an army. Starting with taming savages and raising pets, he gradually built a force of twenty thousand troops, comprising the Silent Legion for stealth and assassination, the Godshatter Legion for frontal assaults, and the Divine Artifact Legion as his ultimate fighting force. Paired with a beast army whose members evolved from ordinary animals into divine beasts, his forces achieved overwhelming strength through human-beast cooperation. He rebuilt the Nameless City in the Exiled Lands, cracked the teleportation array to raid Calradia for supplies, struck a resource-trading deal with Yaoguang, leader of the Star River Merchant Alliance, and monopolized the divine race’s ruins on the Isle of Siptah. He took real-world business strategies like “low-price customer acquisition” and “KPI assessments” and used them to build a cross-world empire.
