In the future, Earth is no longer habitable due to thermonuclear war, world-ending earthquakes, tectonic plate shifts, species extinction, and psionic awakenings...
Qin Che, an ordinary perso...
[At 32, Dune Fortress suffered repeated defeats on the battlefield. Surrounding organizations breached the fortress, engaging in arson, murder, and looting. You paid a heavy price, even dividing the entire fortress among yourself. Through negotiations and transactions with various organizations, you ultimately preserved all your power and forcefully participated in the mining and oil resource extraction. During this time, among your many lovers, you chose to marry the woman you loved most, Chen Xiwu. You were deeply in love, and she even bore you a son.]
At 40, you wield immense power, managing Dune Fortress for various organizations and sharing their profits. In effect, you've become their front man, but you feel no security and begin to grow suspicious.
At 45, you suspect Chen Xiwu of cheating on you and send people to monitor her. Chen Xiwu, due to your drastic personality change over the years, has become increasingly cold towards you. She has found a lover outside the marriage. In a fit of rage, you kill her. Chen Xiwu deeply hates you, but you choose to forgive her.
At 49, your increasingly suspicious nature led you to kill many of the veterans who had helped you build your empire. You became more calculating and autocratic, but your organization remained incredibly strong. With each new generation replacing the old, you regained the loyalty of many who were willing to die for you.
At 51, many of your actions over the years have made various organizations distrust you. They believe your suspicious and stubborn nature is not conducive to building their fortresses. Your position in their eyes is becoming increasingly unstable, but you have fallen into a state of self-inflation and a desire for control, and no one's advice will be heeded anymore.
[A 55-year-old key member of the Southwest Old City organization, you shot and killed Chen Xiwu after getting drunk and harassing her at a reception. You tried to cover it up, but more and more restless people wanted to stir up trouble. Eventually, the truth came out, and the Old City, upon learning of the incident, immediately submitted an application to the Oasis Alliance to replace you. After several days of discussion, all the major organizations agreed that you were no longer suitable to be their front man. The army will once again crush the dunes. But before that, you had already moved your assets with Chen Xiwu and the organization's core members. Your insecurity led you to search for new land and settlements years ago. You escaped there safely with your family, but you were still caught. The ones who caught you were not the Oasis Alliance's army, but an organization from Lingbi City. They extended an invitation to you.]
Two months later, you arrived in Lingbi City with them and your family. Only now do you learn that Lingbi City was the mastermind behind the war against Sand Dune Fortress. Lingbi controls the entire old city of Jinling, but in recent years, the Oasis Alliance's activity and strength have made it increasingly difficult for Lingbi to control its subordinate organizations. Therefore, they instigated the war. Soon, Lingbi will declare war on the Oasis Alliance for illegal plunder. As a front man for various organizations, you possess countless pieces of information and intelligence about the enemy. Lingbi agreed to your request, guaranteeing your safety and granting you and your family first-class citizen status in Lingbi City. You handed over all the intelligence to the Lingbi organization, and after that, you never followed the matter further.
[At 59, your grandson was born.]
At 64, while playing with your grandchildren, an old injury flared up, and you passed away in the small garden in your backyard. You died with a smile on your face.
Upon completion of the simulation, you can choose one of the following rewards:
1. Choose a skill you possess.
2. All the wealth you have accumulated in your lifetime.
3. Your physique and physical condition at your peak.
Qin Che watched as the last line of text gradually disappeared.
He couldn't help but sigh.
It was truly a glorious life, even though it was just an ordinary person's challenge to this chaotic apocalypse.
Of course, in the end, the version of yourself in the simulator is also a pawn in the hands of various forces and organizations.
But that was already a success enough. In the simulator, he not only survived, but also eventually retired to the countryside and returned to a simple life.
Qin Che sighed for a moment, then chose option two without hesitation.
He wants to acquire all the wealth he has accumulated in his lifetime within this simulation.
