New Life in the Ashen Wasteland: I Travel It with an AI

[Growth-Focused Story · Multiple Factions · Ensemble Cast · No System · No Mindless Power Fantasy]

Don't panic in the Wasteland. My AI will help me roam the eight corners of the world.

A wave of immortality sparked an apocalyptic catastrophe. Genes spiraled completely out of control, nuclear radiation devoured the land, and rampaging mutant beasts terrorized the world. In a single day, humanity's dazzling civilization crumbled, leaving behind a desolate wasteland of endless ashes.

In this chaotic age, survivors struggled to stay alive, and supernatural powers became their only source of support. But was this power defying the heavens a gift from the gods, or a curse from the devil?

The Dawn Alliance wielded its swords to uphold order, defending the last embers of civilization;

The Resistance rose up in revolt, fighting for freedom for all;

The Church of Redemption raised its banner of faith, claiming to offer salvation to the world.

Three factions carved up the land and fought for power, while undercurrents surged through the chaotic Wasteland.

Chen Yiyan, a slacker office worker, suddenly awoke after a hundred years of slumber. His cancer had vanished without treatment, and he had also awakened a mysterious, formidable ability. The AI “Zero,” implanted in his brain before the catastrophe, awoke alongside him, becoming his sharp-tongued, perfectly in-sync partner and strongest support.

With mutated beasts all around, factions at war, and radiation everywhere, there was nowhere left to run. This ordinary office worker would break through the Wasteland's impossible odds, gather companions, shelter refugees, and build a home of his own, carving out an astonishing new path to survival in the boundless wasteland of ashes!
