National Fate: Deserted Island, From the Start I’m Bound to a God-Tier Construction System

Lin Chuan has been on Blue Star for three years after transmigrating. He has just been laid off when, the next second, he is selected for the National Destiny deserted island challenge and sent into a death zone to represent the Dragon Kingdom.

From the start, he’s caught in a storm on a pitch-black night, armed with nothing but a rusty short knife and half a bottle of water.

In the global livestream, foreign viewers mock him mercilessly, while the people of the Dragon Kingdom watch with sinking hearts:

Other countries chose special forces soldiers, hunters, and mercenaries. Why did the Dragon Kingdom pick an ordinary young man?

Just as wolves begin howling in the woods, a notification rings out in Lin Chuan’s mind: [God-Tier Construction System activated.]

The System can rapidly build standardized structures from whatever materials are available.

Lin Chuan chops down trees, hauls stones, and cuts vines in the pouring rain. He’s nearly exhausted by the time he builds a low wooden shelter and three rings of spiked barricades before night fully falls.

When the beasts attack on the first night, contestants from other countries panic and flee. Lin Chuan, however, stays inside his drafty shack and uses barricades, nooses, and rockfall traps to wear down and kill the first wolf.

An announcement from the death zone rings out around the world: [The Dragon Kingdom’s contestant is the first to complete a shelter. All citizens of the Dragon Kingdom will receive a small increase in physical fitness.]

From that moment on, everyone realizes Lin Chuan isn’t trying to survive on a deserted island. He’s developing it.

The shack becomes a wooden house, the campsite grows into a fortified settlement, and everything from crossbow towers and rainwater reservoirs to farmland, furnaces, docks, and city walls appears one after another.

Contestants from other countries join forces to seize resources, but Lin Chuan lays traps in advance, leaving his enemies unable to take a single step.

Tsunamis, giant beasts, and a siege by all nations descend. While everyone else is still struggling to survive, Lin Chuan is already standing atop the fortress walls, looking down over the entire death zone.

He speaks calmly to the global livestream: “I didn’t come here to survive. I came to make sure the Dragon Kingdom wins in the end.”
