Modern young man Lin Shen accidentally traveled to a different world where "The Battle of the Golden Shovel" is the only rule of survival - here, the Golden Shovel is not a game, but a basic survival skill like eating and breathing. Social class, resource distribution, and power changes are all determined by the performance of the Golden Shovel. The protagonist brings the Earth version of the game understanding and tactical thinking, and in this world where the "natives" are still exploring the basic gameplay, he stages a dimensionality-reducing strike-style legend.
