[Apocalyptic Survival] [Management] [Highly Rewarding Progress]
The world undergoes a global mutation, and the official operators of the apocalypse game deploy wave after wave of monsters. Humanity struggles to survive by upgrading shelters and vehicles and awakening professions.
After the mutations, existing species gradually disappear. Weapons, food, and even water must be bought from the official shop or alien shops. The officials buy materials and supplies dropped by players for low prices, then lightly process them and sell them at a premium, pocketing the difference.
Gu Zhou had once participated in designing the game, and awakened the Behind-the-Scenes Partner profession. He gets a 90% discount when purchasing supplies from the official shop, and as long as he stays alive, he receives survival points every day.
With this identity, he lies low in his shelter, quietly leveling up and buying low and selling high. He seizes rare items such as the Mechanical Heart, Space Crystal, and Fusion Divine Crystal, and incorporates RVs, shelters, plantations, forests, islands, and more into his territory.
He builds a faction and recruits powerful professionals, including chefs, mechanics, planters, architects, and engineers. Within his territory, he develops industry and agriculture, manufactures goods, and competes with the officials for business.
When severe cold descends, all players are trapped inside shelters and vehicles. Food runs short, leaving them dependent on supplies from the official shop to survive.
The officials sell pepper steak for 3 survival points. Gu Zhou sells it for just 1, then uses the survival points he earns to buy rare items from the official shop at a 90% discount, growing stronger without end.
As his partner rank rises higher and higher, he finally takes a seat at the game officials' boardroom table and becomes one of the people who divides up the spoils in this world…
