Global Zero: Rule Raiders

In a supernatural cataclysm called "The Great Reckoning," humans around the world were forcibly thrown onto the original island in the endless sea. There is no order here, only a "zero storm" that occurs every seven days. Islands that fail to pass the system value assessment will be completely wiped out. The protagonist Lin Xiu, who was once the top anonymous trader and chain hunter in the real world, awakened the only core talent when he arrived - [Premium of All Things]. He can gain real-time insight into the "intrinsic value" and "risk of collapse to zero" of all materials, land and even player lives. While other players were still struggling to survive and forming fragile mutual aid groups, Lin Xiu had become acutely aware that this doomsday survival was essentially an extremely cruel resource allocation game. Lin Xiu emerged as an absolutely rational "hero". He does not engage in charity, but uses the information gap to create a "liquidity trap". By hedging fresh water and asylum rights, he turns all players in the surrounding sea areas into his debtors. He issued credit tokens based on survival supplies, induced strong people to work for him, and used the panic before the storm to carry out "asset restructuring" at low prices. The core excitement of this book lies in **"wisdom harvesting" and "hard-core management"**. Lin Xiu built the isolated island into the only "centralized exchange" in the sea, coldly liquidated defaulters in the storm, and turned other people's territories into the cornerstone of his own expansion. This is a minimalist violent aesthetic story about how predators play with the rules and ultimately override them. In this world, survival is not the goal, becoming the only "banker" is.
