On July 15, 2029, the global 【Collapse and Reset of the Rules】 struck without warning. The physical laws, natural laws, and social order on which humanity depended all ceased to function.
The world no longer obeyed science. Instead, hundreds of random disaster rules emerged:
Daylight vanished at random, gravity became erratic at intervals, water periodically corroded flesh, metal rusted and fell apart on its own, bizarre aberrations appeared whenever night fell, and anyone who slept for more than three hours suffered permanent amnesia…
There were no apocalyptic zombies, no spiritual qi revival, and no alien invasion.
Humanity was never killed by monsters. It was the world’s rules, constantly changing and impossible to decipher.
Every seven days, a new round of 【Global Rule Announcements】 appeared. Old rules remained in effect and stacked with the new ones, while the number of rules increased without limit and the difficulty of surviving in the world skyrocketed exponentially.
99.9% of humanity died from ignorance, wishful thinking, and violating unknown rules.
