[Alien Invasion · Apocalypse Permissions · Resource Struggle · Not Mindless Wish Fulfillment]
The day aliens arrived, every screen across the globe lit up at once.
They didn't negotiate or declare war. They announced just one thing:
[Human civilization restoration failed. Beginning reclamation.]
High-value samples would be sealed in recovery pods and taken away.
Low-value samples would await elimination in batches.
Scanning beams and alien machines filled the streets. Every public place had become a site for screening humanity.
Yu Cheng, a subway maintenance worker, was classified as a [low-value sample].
His only younger sister, however, was placed on the [High-Value Recovery List].
To save her, Yu Cheng ventured deep into the subway and opened Line Zero, a line that didn't exist on any map.
There, he obtained the highest-level authority left behind by ancient humans.
From that moment on, the apocalypse became a different place for him.
He could go where others couldn't.
He had resources others didn't.
While others were chased by robots, he donned a power armor suit and fought back against the aliens.
Yu Cheng never wanted to be a savior.
He just couldn't stand hearing the aliens call human civilization a failure.
They think they can declare humanity extinct?
It's not that simple!
