Traveling to the magical world and becoming the most noble princess of the empire sounds like a sweet dream.
But the first thing Du Yuan Xiangyan did when he opened his eyes was to smell whether he was rotten.
Rusty Territory, the most barren fiefdom in the empire, is known as the "cemetery of the living." There is no magic academy here, no knight corps, just 30,000 acres of wilderness, 5,000 old and weak soldiers, and a group of untouchables who have been abandoned by mainstream society.
And she, with zero magic power, was treated as a shame by the royal family and thrown here to "wait for death".
The good news is: she is bound to the "National Technology Tree System".
The bad news is: the system requires civilization points to unlock, and she is now completely broke.
The Empire thought she would die silently.
The church thought she would get down on her knees and beg for mercy.
Neighboring countries thought they could divide her territory at will.
But Du Yuan Xiangyan is no ordinary princess. In her previous life, she was an assistant researcher in the field of missile guidance at the Military Industrial Research Institute, and the violent aesthetics of industrial civilization were engraved in her bones.
In the first year, she built a blast furnace and let the iron flow into a river.
The next year, she built artillery and blasted incoming enemy troops into smithereens.
In the third year, she laid a railroad and connected the entire territory with steel.
When the empire finally realized how dangerous this "waste" was, Du Yuan Xiangyan was already standing in front of their city gate.
"Your Majesty," she looked at the man at the top of the city who had abandoned her and smiled, "I have come to take back what belongs to me."
This is a passionate epic about how industrial civilization crushed magical civilization. It is also the story of how a woman abandoned by the world created a new world with her own hands.
