After the nuclear war, the world became a wasteland. Mutated creatures are rampant, and survivors are lingering in the ruins. Xie Feng, a retired special forces soldier, accidentally activated the "War Evolution System" before the end of the world - a military experimental program he had forgotten, which actually allowed him to continuously evolve in battle, unlock gene locks, and gain superpowers.
While other survivors were killing each other for a mouthful of food, Xie Feng had already awakened abilities such as "thermal imaging vision", "bone armor" and "electromagnetic control" with the blessing of the system. He created the "Iron Wall Base" to take in refugees and fight against the tide of mutant beasts. However, what is more terrifying than the monsters in the apocalypse is the human heart. The mean-spirited elders of the base are restricting him at every turn, demanding that he hand over the secrets of evolution on the grounds that "the overall situation is the most important"; major forces covet his abilities, and conspiracies follow one after another; what is even more frightening is that those "evolvers" who have also awakened superpowers begin to appear, and a war for doomsday dominance quietly begins.
On the ruins, the strong are respected. When Xie Feng discovered that the truth of the system was a test for alien civilization to select warriors, he understood that the real war had just begun.
