[Reborn in the Apocalypse | A Contest to Build an Empire | Humans and Eerie Beings Coexist | Overwhelming Victories, No Suffering for the Protagonist]
Eerie dungeons sweep across the globe. Pollution spreads everywhere, eerie creatures run rampant, and humanity retreats to crumbling cities, barely surviving from one day to the next.
Xu Duoyu is reborn and binds himself to the Paper Money System. He burns paper money to exchange for ghost coins, trade for military supplies, recruit ghost soldiers, and unlock futuristic infrastructure technology.
While others fight over food and struggle to survive against the eerie creatures, he builds high-speed railways linking four regions and steel mills to boost production, filling his warehouses with grain and cloth. While others see the Polluted Mother Tree as an inescapable apocalypse, he purifies it, turning a thousand miles of wasteland into fertile fields as refugees flock to join him.
He gathers wandering spirits to open workshops and build cities, subdues Shadow Divine Kin to serve as his personal guards, and blazes a new path where humans and eerie beings coexist. Step by step, he builds an empire spanning thousands of miles, shared by humans and eerie beings.
