[A bizarre arrival + a convoy's survival + humanity's counterattack]
An eerie event suddenly occurs, and the city falls. The still-weak Chosen Ones are powerless to resist and lead humanity to escape the city. The protagonist is one of them, living a life of hiding and fleeing with the caravan.
Until the Holy City was established, the caravan arrived there, and the protagonist joined the Night's Watch, becoming the commander of the First Legion. From then on, humanity began to gain a foothold and start fighting back against the supernatural...
I am just an ordinary businessman. My job is to facilitate the buying and selling of goods between two different time periods.
In the apocalypse, food is as precious as gold; we can't let that slip by. Metals scarce in the modern world? In the apocalypse, you can scavenge and loot them until you cramp up. What? A passenger plane for a ton of food? Get a fighter jet, a bomber, or something. An aircraft carrier? Oh… where am I supposed to find people to operate one? No way!
Are you a fighter jet designer? Of course! Would you take it? Three meals a day and six loaves of bread?
I'm running a post-apocalyptic talent factory here. All skilled professionals from various industries are welcome to join us. Room and board are provided, but there's no salary…

Under the extreme test of a post-apocalyptic environment, the survival of human civilization and the choices of humanity—when survival instincts collide with moral bottom lines, when individual strength intertwines with collective destiny, is the apocalypse the end of civilization or the beginning of reconstruction? This novel will explore the survival and transformation of civilization in extreme environments through the intertwining of genetic technology, the struggle for survival, and the struggle of humanity.
II. Worldview Setting
2.1 Doomsday Triggers: Triple Screening
Genetic Virus Outbreak: In 2077, a genetically modified virus called "Crimson Dawn" escapes control, capable of rewriting the genes of almost all organisms, causing terrifying mutations in all life forms worldwide. This virus can infect all life on Earth, including humans, becoming the first screening factor in the collapse of civilization.
A red fog descends: After the virus outbreak, a mysterious red fog appeared in the sky. This fog is actually a "gene filter" from an alien civilization, capable of activating hidden potential in biological gene chains and accelerating biological evolution. However, it also leads to instability in biological genes, causing uncontrolled mutations.
Remnants of nuclear winter: In an effort to control the spread of genetic viruses, governments worldwide launched "Project Ice," using biotechnology-based "freezing bombs" to turn low-lying areas of the world into ice ages, triggering a global nuclear winter. Residual radiation caused some areas to become "dead zones," but it also gave rise to the rare resource "radioactive nuclei."
