III. Map Settings:

Hengshan Pass

The map only marks major cities or cities reported by the Phoenix Society; the route also includes various small towns, minor cities, mountains, swamps, and other terrains.

IV. Additional Notes:

Strength and other attributes are not primarily for combat; they represent the protagonist's baseline physical conditioning required to survive the harsh post-apocalyptic environment. Everyone else is evolving, and these attributes ensure the protagonist isn't too weak in combat, coordination, or mechanical crafting — just as a mage in a game still needs basic stats.

After acquiring the Manufacturing Plant, material conversion is no longer explicitly described; in reality, material conversion is always ongoing, including R&D progress, which continuously drains the protagonist's stamina. The Manufacturing Plant cannot directly convert any new material not previously encountered.

Finally, only after acquiring the powered armor does the Mechanical Heart begin to function properly; thus, the early phase of slashing with a blade is not meant to suppress power — it is this very process.

Thank you all for your support. The next setting update will be synchronized in the free chapters.
