Black Tide Apocalypse: I Built a Shelter with Plants

Farming + shelter construction + magical plants + apocalyptic struggle for supremacy. Anyone exposed to areas tainted by darkness for seven days will turn into a bloodthirsty ghoul! Ye Fei was framed and exiled deep into a contaminated zone, without a single resource. Everyone thought he was doomed. But then he discovered that the plants he sowed could evolve. Plant a man-eating flower: it devours monsters in one bite and spits out black crystals after digesting them. Upgrade it, and it can spit acid, leaving nothing alive within thirty meters. Plant a breadfruit tree: its fruit fills your stomach, and its trunk stores water. A single tree can sustain an entire shelter. Plant a wisdom tree: it bears fruit that grants abilities. Eat one, and your reactions grow faster and your strength increases. Plant a root wall: it can ensnare, crush, and repair itself. Monsters that charge inside are simply delivering themselves as a meal. While everyone else struggles to survive the apocalypse, Ye Fei becomes a farmer. Farm, upgrade, build walls, expand your territory. The more ferocious the dark tide, the more verdant his shelter becomes! Years later, as the empire’s defenses crumble one after another, routed soldiers cross the contaminated zone and suddenly freeze in despair: In the darkness, a man-eating flower is chewing on a monster’s head. Behind it, towering walls stand beneath brightly lit lamps. A vast expanse of lush, verdant plant structures has risen from the silent, contaminated wasteland, forming an impregnable shelter.
