In a desolate wasteland at the end of the world, bones litter the land and every step is a struggle to survive.
Mo Zheng is a down-and-out weapons engineer, scraping by at the bottom of society. She runs a shabby workshop and has been driven to the end of her rope.
Then, on an impulse, she rescues Yun Jin, who is badly wounded and hiding a secret.
He makes a solemn promise to give her a life free of worry:
Your kindness is on me. I’ll fund your dreams.
From then on, she can focus on research without worrying about what lies ahead.
She develops an acid-eruption gun that can kill ferocious beasts and shore up defenses,
while he opens every channel available and gets one into the hands of everyone in the wasteland.
She develops luminous spirit-energy components that light up barren lands and improve people’s lives,
while he distributes them across the entire region, turning them into indispensable treasures for every household.
Their once-rickety little workshop grows into a top arms city that commands fear and respect far and wide.
Together, they fight the enemy, holding back the surging beast tide from the forbidden mountains,
then turn their full force against the entrenched, corrupt regime deep within the mountain range and bring it down.
She came from the wilderness and rose to such prominence that the nobles of the Upper City, once so high above the people below, are now terrified and in a complete panic at the mere mention of her name!
