Scavenging in a City Besieged by Monsters

A strange red rain sweeps across the globe, and civilization collapses within days. The dead rise again as monsters hungry for flesh, while survivors struggle to stay alive amid the ruins. After the apocalypse arrives, Gu Yuanshanzhou, an ordinary young city dweller, unexpectedly activates a System called the Wasteland Survival Rulebook. Only he can see this rulebook, which assigns a series of survival missions. Completing them earns him supplies, attribute points, and even special skills. There are no world-shattering superpowers or inexhaustible treasure troves. Gu Yuanshanzhou’s System is more like a strict survival textbook for the apocalypse. It teaches him how to get his first clean drink of water and gather supplies in a city crawling with monsters, how to reinforce a safe shelter and tell apart human hearts that are more dangerous than monsters. Relying on this rulebook, Gu Yuanshanzhou takes one step at a time, struggling, growing stronger, and doing his best to stay alive in the collapsing wasteland. He will witness humanity’s loss of decency, but he will also find glimmers of hope. This is not merely one man’s story of survival; it is a record of searching for the rules of survival amid despair.
