A mysterious cold wave suddenly engulfs the world, freezing human civilization in an instant and plunging Earth into a thousand-year ice age.
The brilliant scientist Lin Ting survives by using a time-stasis hibernation pod.
Two thousand years later, Lin Ting awakens to a frozen world, desolate and lifeless.
Relying on knowledge and reason, Lin Ting struggles to survive the bitter cold and successfully awakens Lu Wang, a childhood friend.
To rebuild civilization, Lin Ting leads a team in developing ice-melting agents and gunpowder, and in awakening doctors, engineers, and other skilled professionals.
But differences in their ideals drive Lin Ting to break with Shen Qingquan, whose forces are formidable, creating two opposing factions.
Through conflict and cooperation, they develop agriculture, energy, and mechanical technology, build settlements, and defend themselves against wild beasts and outside threats.
As their explorations deepen, Lin Ting discovers that the frozen world is connected to an extraterrestrial energy entity, and the threat of localized freezing draws near once more.
Lin Ting must unite the team and develop an energy-interference device to put an end to the frozen catastrophe.
Standing atop a snowy peak, Lin Ting gazes ahead with resolve. “Civilization isn’t about selection. It’s about inclusion and continuation. As long as humanity keeps thinking, civilization will never end.”
1. Protagonist's character: genius ≠ naivety, logical fragmentation
The protagonist is set to be a top scientist + doomsday prophet, but his behavior is often too idealistic, trusting others, and underestimating the evil of human nature, which is completely inconsistent with a "calm and high-IQ genius".
- Be soft-hearted when you should be cruel, and don't be defensive when you should be defensive.
- Decision-making is emotional and lacks the strategist's killing and planning
Conclusion: More like a "good ordinary person", not a top genius who can sustain civilization in the frozen two thousand years of apocalypse.
2. Gun bug: 2000 = completely scrapped, no room for lies
Frozen for two thousand years, modern firearms are absolutely unusable:
- Metal corrosion, barrel deformation, spring failure
- Gunpowder and primer expire early and cannot be fired.
- Plastic/wooden parts fully powdered
The author did not give a reasonable explanation for the sealed library, low-temperature storage, future repair technology, etc., But directly asked Shen Qingquan's men to take out the working guns, which is a hard logic flaw.
