Synopsis of The War of Cards
Centuries ago, a catastrophic meteor shower reshaped the world, splitting it into two isolated continents where life exists yet remains completely disconnected. The event plunged humanity into chaos, threatening the collapse of civilization. In response, scientists from the original continent, led by the visionary Rosenberg, collaborated across nations to create a revolutionary energy device: the Card System. This innovation not only became a lifeline for survival but also a source of power, strategy, and conflict in the divided world.
Amid this backdrop, Chen Mu, a frail and impoverished young boy, finds himself thrust into a harsh and unforgiving reality. Despite his humble beginnings and countless struggles, Chen Mu embodies resilience and an unwavering spirit. His journey is one of self-discovery, perseverance, and transformation.
Through his unyielding determination, kindness, and the support of friends and family, Chen Mu navigates the complexities of the card-powered society. Overcoming adversity and facing formidable foes, he gradually rises as a figure of strength and leadership. Along the way, he uncovers hidden truths about the cataclysm, the nature of the cards, and the mysterious forces driving the two continents toward conflict.
