National Fate Survival: Chinese-Standard Infrastructure Sweeps the World

After transmigrating into the global National Destiny death match, he found that every other country had been assigned a combat-focused contestant, while China alone was given Lin Ye, a construction manager.

Fog tides, flash floods and mudslides, frost heave, shifting dunes, low-pressure miasma, earthquake-dammed lakes... Ninety percent of deaths in the secret realm came from unexpected geological disasters.

The eight-nation alliance, including Jack, Otto, and Yamamoto, scorned every standard of geotechnical engineering. Relying on metal tools and brute strength, they tore apart ruins, and every clever stunt brought merciless retaliation in the form of cave-ins, raging floods, and avalanches.

Lin Ye sketched contour lines by hand, calculated the angle of repose on slopes, and used whatever rubble and clay he could find to build flood defenses, frost protection, and sand stabilization works that met national standards.

Five catchphrases echoed across global livestreams:

“Don’t panic. I’m just here to lay bricks.” “I’m brick rubble. You know the rubble argument, right?” “Honestly, I know a thing or two about undermining walls.” “Inspection? We build according to the plans.” “Which standard are you talking about, the national one or the nonstandard one?”

Ancient canals, cantilevered pavilions suspended in midair, and a comprehensive ground-grouting project to mend the heavens were completed one after another, uniting ancient and modern construction methods.

All the foreign contestants who looked down on civil engineering and ignored national standards were defeated. Drawing on their experience building in the secret realm, China updated its entire set of national standards for disaster prevention, ancient architecture, and soil and water management, permanently eliminating geological catastrophes.

When the balance of the entire ancient world was restored by a set of Chinese civil engineering standards, the eight-nation alliance finally understood: the mightiest force in this world had never been guns and cannons, but the thousand-year-old rules of construction carved into brick and soil!
