Useless Wood Ability in Doomsday? I Build Mechs and Bombs Out of Paper.

Zhuang Mo transmigrates into a desolate post-apocalyptic wasteland, a broken world where human civilization lies in ruins and survival becomes the only goal for every living person. In this harsh era filled with mutant beasts and resource scarcity, all awakened supernatural abilities determine one’s chance of living on. Holding a simple wish for stable survival, Zhuang Mo originally hoped to awaken a common wood-element ability, which would allow him to grow crops, plant vegetation, and settle down safely amid the barren ruins without taking reckless risks. Contrary to his expectation, the mutated power he awakened was extremely peculiar. Instead of the conventional ability to manipulate plants and greenery, he could only freely control various plant fibers extracted from wasteland vegetation. Yet this seemingly useless trivial power unlocked an unparalleled, one-of-a-kind paper-folding skill that defied all common sense. He leveraged local plant fiber resources in the ruins to manufacture all kinds of special functional paper, including numbing anesthetic paper, high-temperature fireproof paper, and exclusive energy-storing paper that accumulates spiritual power. With his extraordinary folding technique, he effortlessly crafted agile aircraft, sturdy defensive armor, and sharp lethal combat weapons purely from paper. The original owner of this body starved to death in the cruel wasteland, a tragic victim of excessive kindness and misplaced mercy that left him unable to fend for himself. Reborn with a completely new outlook, Zhuang Mo possesses a cold, resolute, and decisive mindset that fits the brutal doomsday rules. When a pair of mother and son deliberately faked miserable suffering to trick and steal his hard-earned supplies, he struck without the slightest hesitation to protect his survival gains, no longer tolerating parasitic greed in the chaotic wasteland. From then on, Zhuang Mo roams the endless ruins alone, hunting ferocious mutant beasts to gather resources and strengthen his unique paper-borne powers. As his strength grows rapidly, even terrifying Level 9 mutant overlords, the top-tier predators dominating the wasteland, dare not confront him. Faced with his unstoppable paper art prowess, these mighty beasts will voluntarily offer up their precious crystal cores, begging for mercy and surrender. Having cast aside naive kindness and mastered an unrivaled unique skill, Zhuang Mo gradually grows from a ordinary wasteland scavenger into an unshakable supreme ruler of the post-apocalyptic world.
