The Lord of Glimmer plants the sun in the eternal night.

That day, the sun set and never rose again. Waking up in a bizarre, lightless world where monstrous horrors ravage what remains of humanity, Jiang Chuan finds himself locked in a desperate struggle for survival. Fortunately, he awakens the "Glimmer Research Manual"—a cheat-like system that allows him to research, upgrade, and fundamentally modify anything in existence by gathering energy. From agriculture and architecture to tools and livestock, no creation is bound by ordinary rules anymore. Soon, his sunflowers are glowing with blinding radiance, his modest cabin is sprouting legs to crush terrifying beasts, and his bred creatures are taking on absurdly unique forms. While the rest of the world cowers in the endless dark, a quiet revolution takes root. When the next great catastrophe strikes and countless crazed monstrosities swarm the remnants of humanity, a new legend echoes through the shadows. The eternal night is about to learn the warmth of a man-made dawn.
