On the day the nuclear bomb fell, Chen Xu was repairing a scrapped military truck.
Ten years later, he crawled out from the dead, holding half a compressed biscuit and a rusty screw in his hand. While others were waiting for death in the wasteland, he found ways to survive in the ruins - taking apart bomb casings to make kettles, smashing batteries to make power banks, and welding iron sewer pipes into shotguns. He can identify valuable parts at a glance in the garbage, he can hear the direction of the water flow in the collapsed mine, and he can use a piece of wire to pry open the strongest door in the apocalypse.
Until he walked into the "maze" for the first time.
It was a group of supernatural buildings that randomly appeared in the ruins, containing deadly mechanisms, mutated monsters, and "survival points" that could change reality. The chosen person must pass the level, otherwise the physical body in reality will die.
Chen Xu didn't want to go in. But in the maze, he picked up a complete aircraft engine bolt.
From then on, the stingiest survivalist in the wasteland became the most terrifying scavenger in the maze. Others rely on IQ to solve puzzles, he relies on "how many survival points can be sold if this thing is dismantled"; others rely on luck to escape, he relies on "there are three more screws on this road than that road, which means someone has passed by, follow".
He took a fat man who was afraid of ghosts, a female sniper who had killed people, and a kid who admired him to build a base in the maze, tame monsters, and trap enemies. Say "Don't drag me down", but your body will always be the first to block the knife.
Until they discovered that the maze is not a disaster, but a screening. Screen those who are worthy of the "new world."
