Ding Ming, a programmer who had just experienced a breakup, ushered in the end of the world in a state of confusion. The zombie virus broke out, and the civilized order collapsed instantly. Just as he was about to die, a mysterious "doomsday survival system" bound him and digitized the world. Relying on the "manager privileges" granted by the system (high-rate experience acquisition, material scanning, and rapid skill learning), Ding Ming quickly grew from an ordinary person struggling to survive to a strong man who cleans up neighborhoods and builds shelters. He gathered the survivors and fought against the group of predators headed by Chen Biao, and his power began to take shape.
However, an in-depth exploration of the military's abandoned underground shelter changed everything. Ding Ming discovered the research log that had not been destroyed, revealing a desperate truth: the so-called "Doomsday" is a large-scale civilization experiment and screening conducted by a higher civilization called "Observer". All survivors are experimental subjects, and the system is the "observation and intervention tool" they put in. What's even more fatal is that Ding Ming's system has a special version, coming from the rebel AI within the "Observer".
At this moment, Ding Ming faces a double desperate situation: externally, Chen Biao and other survivor bases are encircling and suppressing his "monopoly of resources"; secretly, there is the "clearance of the experimental site" that may come at any time from the "observers". He must use BUG-level system authority before the "Day of the Blood Moon" to integrate the remaining power of mankind, crack the underlying rules of the experimental site, evolve from a "guinea pig" to a "chess player", and gain a glimmer of hope for human civilization. This is a race against time and a battle of life and death against advanced civilization.
