In the thirty-fifth year of Qin Shi Huang’s reign, snow and wind swept across the northern frontier.
Lu Yan, a state-level chief engineer of major infrastructure projects, transmigrated into a convict laborer on the Great Wall. Just yesterday, he had been overseeing the foundation of a space elevator. Today, he was due to be executed at noon!
At the brink of death, the “Infrastructure Marvel System” bonded with him!
Build a five-zhang-long section of wall foundation in 72 hours? No problem. In a single night, he raised a one-zhang-high wall of tightly rammed earth, reinforced with grass ropes. Swords couldn’t pierce it, and charging horses couldn’t bring it down!
The commanders were skeptical, and the garrison soldiers came under attack. Using construction methods centuries ahead of their time, he fought back and made a name for himself. The condemned convict became a key figure on the frontier!
Unlocking blast furnaces, cement, prestressed rammed earth, and a primitive theodolite, he laid the foundations for the Qin Great Wall stretching thousands of miles. By unlocking materials science and improving tools, he created infrastructure marvels beyond his era!
Watch as Lu Yan turns infrastructure into a weapon, building defenses and securing his footing amid the chaos of the Qin dynasty. He takes on the alchemists and fights the Xiongnu, transforming the Great Wall of Qin into an impregnable steel fortress against the apocalypse!
