Lin Ce transmigrated.
The Ember System activated. While everyone else in the apocalypse pulled weapons and divine beasts, he pulled water-purification towers, First Ancestor farms, and arcane workshops: nothing but farming and construction cards.
Across the Ashen Plains, lords were killing each other over a single acre of purified land.
Lin Ce didn’t fight over it. He pulled a water-purification tower, and the concentration of magic pollution plummeted as contaminated land became clean.
He pulled a First Ancestor farm, and stone wheat sealed away for a thousand years sprouted in the wasteland, producing more grain than the three great city-states combined.
He pulled an arcane workshop. Automated turrets formed ranks, airships took to the skies, and powered armor rolled off the production line.
Other people’s passive System skills boosted their attack or output. His only helped him survive better.
While the other lords were still fighting over a patch of land, Lin Ce had already built a water-purification tower beside an abyssal rift.
He wasn’t growing crops. He was growing civilization.
The wasteland has been rotting for a thousand years. It’s time for something new to grow.
