The Empire's New Era: From Lumberjack to Creator God

After transmigrating into the Age of Empires as the lowest-ranking lumberjack in the empire, Lin Mu discovered that this world could actually be digitized. Resources had numerical values, buildings required blueprints, and even the outcome of wars followed hidden rules of code. Using the modification permissions he had awakened, he started by making a minor adjustment to his axe's sharpness, then built the first wooden wall amid a tide of cold steel.

When his farmers laid down their hoes and took up crossbows, and his arrow towers rose from places where they shouldn't have been possible, the thrones across the continent began to tremble. Yet unifying the land was not the end. The sky split open, revealing a path to higher dimensions. The flames of war on the Continent of Kings, the gods of the Mythic Era, the artillery fire of the interstellar frontier... Nine vast epochs unfolded one after another.

Gradually, he discovered that he wasn't the only "player." Amid his endless ascent, he went from fighting his nemesis to joining forces with them, and from exploiting the System to opposing it. When his modification permissions reached the very foundation of the world, he faced a final choice: become the omnipotent god of a new universe, or dismantle his authority and give civilization back its freedom?

This is an epic tale of a lumberjack's rise to creator god, as well as an endless trial of power, responsibility, and truth.
