Humanity transmigrates en masse to a perilous deserted island. Every survivor starts with just one bottle of mineral water and one loaf of bread.
The protagonist, Lin Ye, unexpectedly unlocks an exclusive Survival System. He gets one free lottery draw each day, with a chance to win rare supplies such as construction blueprints, weapon materials, and permanent Terracotta Army soldier tokens.
Every night, waves of zombies descend. Mutated giant crocodiles, prehistoric megalodon, and enormous Titan beasts lurk across the island. Slaying monsters earns Doomsday Coins, gems, and diamonds, which can be exchanged for all kinds of essential supplies in the System Shop.
The base can be upgraded level by level, starting from a crude shelter and progressing to walls, crossbow towers, and gun turrets, until it becomes a massive seaside castle with a harbor.
When a zombie horde strikes, he rescues Xu Qinghe, the nurse leading the group, then gathers eight female survivors, each with her own specialty, to cultivate farmland, prepare medicine, and train the defenses.
There is no resurrection on this deserted island. Death means the end, once and for all. Other players raid one another for resources, and those whose bases are destroyed can only become someone else’s slaves.
With the advantage of his System, Lin Ye stockpiles troops and builds a city, holding out against endless mutated beasts and human greed. In this barren, desperate land, he kindles the sole spark of civilization left to the survivors.
