On the wasteland, civilization has collapsed and the strong prey on the weak.
Lin Feng, a veteran who spent three years battling in a game, unexpectedly finds his consciousness projected into a real wasteland. There are no respawns and no second chances. Death is the end.
Starting with an empty gun from an abandoned police station, he kills scavenger machines, loots police equipment, befriends mechanic Zhao Feng, and barters for supplies in Scrap Iron Town, gradually securing a foothold. The Falcon Group, the Rust Knights, the Northern Anvil... factions have carved up the land, and the struggle for resources is brutal and bloody.
But he possesses the rarest skills of this age: technical expertise and gunsmithing.
He fights his way out of an underground arena, wins a high-stakes arms dealer’s gamble with nothing but his wits, and dismantles heavy weapons by hand in an ammunition graveyard inside a radioactive exclusion zone. In an abandoned factory, he hammers out his first homemade rifle, the Anvil-1. Deep in a tunnel, he repairs the armored railcar Fang. At an oasis outpost, he trains a sniper unit called the Silent Hunters.
When the fully automated production line capable of making a million rounds, the Deep Well Protocol, is activated; when he gets his hands on a high-strength alloy formula from wasteland metallurgy; when the callsigns “Night Hawk” and “Vulture” unravel a mystery of identities buried in the past...
He is no longer a wanderer on the wasteland, but the forger of an iron throne.
The barrels are hot, and the rails stretch onward.
This time, he intends to be the last one standing.
