[Wasteland road novel + business-management System + human nature and ensemble cast + mobile safe house]
When gray fog devours civilization and order crumbles to dust, a truck becomes the Wasteland's only “Noah's Ark.”
Chen Mo inherits the old semi-truck his father left behind, then accidentally activates the [Mobile Supermarket System No. 404]. This seemingly ordinary modified truck is actually a subspace connected to a warehouse in the old world. Its shelves are stocked with clean water from before the apocalypse, uncontaminated canned food, scarce antibiotics, and even the “Old Era Key” coveted by every major faction.
The System's rules are simple: trade Wasteland junk for survival supplies, and information for travel permits. The price is that he must keep the supermarket on the move, surviving amid dust storms, mutated beasts, and marauders.
And so, a mysterious legend arose in the Wasteland: a coldhearted merchant driving a steel behemoth through death zones. He would set up temporary shelves outside a shelter, trading a bottle of purified water for a warlord's treasured nuclear battery. He would also rescue a dying scavenger in the wilderness, exchanging a single antibiotic for an old map marked “Safe Zone.”
Some called him a savior because he brought hope of survival. Others called him a devil because he never gave anything away for free, and every deal came with a hidden price.
