Farming in a Survival Game

[Novel Blurb]

After nurturing countless lives and civilizations for billions of years, Blue Star finally reached its limit.

The atmosphere ruptured, the oceans evaporated, the surface cracked, and radiation spread everywhere. Not a single living thing could be seen on the planet's surface.

Ye Luo, a former programmer barely surviving deep underground, pondered the future of humanity in his sleep.

A whisper came to his ears.

"Welcome to the Gaia Survival Game..."

Destruction or salvation?

"First rule of the game: Never put yourself in complete darkness."

"Second rule of the game: Your only goal is to survive."

"Third rule of the game: Explore the space around you. It may help you survive, or bring all of this to an end."

The other players trembled with fear at the unknown behind the doors.

But Ye Luo could use his golden finger to see a map of the space in advance.

The other players treated their starting space as a warehouse, a shelter from the storm.

But when Ye Luo saw the fertile black soil covering the space's floor, the blood of Yan and Huang in his veins surged!

Farm! Farm! Farm!

The golden finger is the gong.

A self-restrained, unwell shou × a developing mechanical lifeform gong (a tsundere young master's syndrome × a silly, sweet but increasingly scheming and calculating butler)

The gong is a tool, quite literally~

The essence of humanity as intelligent life is human nature and creation.

The essence of mechanical life as intelligent life is thought and rules. My rule is to never leave.

Contains a small amount of Lovecraftian elements and original settings.

Inspired by the Steam games Don't Starve, "a certain foundation," and ancient myths and legends from China and abroad.

Theme: Protecting the Earth is everyone's responsibility
