Opening a Restaurant in the Wasteland

(Business management + food + farming + a touch of wasteland elements)

Xu Nuan thinks she's transmigrated into the world of a wasteland game.

She's bound to a food shop management System.

Xu Nuan, a human border collie with boundless energy: ? Who cares what kind of System it is? Let's go!

Faced with all kinds of wasteland disasters, Xu Nuan runs the food shop she's acquired day and night. Every so often, she farms monsters near the shop and collects their drops to use as decorations.

But after grinding away for so long, every shop under Xu Nuan's name is still Lv. 1.

A textbook level-one noob.

In the wasteland era, disasters have descended, and extreme calamities keep arising. Extreme cold and scorching heat alternate, radiation and pollution coexist, and mutated creatures roam the land. Humans awaken supernatural abilities, and the strongest ability users join forces to establish survival bases and fight back against the monster-infested "Fallen Zones."

One day, ability users out hunting monsters discover that a drink shop has opened in the Fallen Zone. The shop is decorated in pink, and its facilities are fully equipped. As soon as you walk in, you can smell the distinctive sweetness of maple syrup, coffee, and milk.

The shopkeeper greets everyone with a friendly smile, always enthusiastically inviting every ability user to have a drink.

After drinking the hot beverages, the ability users discover that the drinks have miraculous effects: boosting stamina, lifting curses, calming the mind... and even awakening supernatural abilities!

Countless people go wild for them, flocking to the shop.

At last, Xu Nuan can't resist her boundless curiosity and decides to go out for a look around.

But, considering her level-one-noob strength, Xu Nuan is extremely cautious, afraid she'll get killed in the game.

That is, until she sees countless people in the center of the base's main district with Lv. 0.00000...1 floating above their heads.

#I thought I was a noob#

#Turns out everyone else is even worse#

#Damn it! This world is a contest to see who's the worst#

Later, Xu Nuan finally realizes that this isn't some lifelike virtual game world, and the monsters she's been farming aren't NPCs that the System periodically respawns.

She's in a real wasteland disaster zone, a world full of killing, schemes, and death.

And through her reckless charging around, she's already become a max-level big shot admired by all, an indescribable "terrifying" presence.
