À propos de cet audio
To Hal Riley, the apocalypse is just another problem to solve—all he needs to do is build the right tools.
It's rush hour in Chicago when a system integration ends the world as Hal Riley knows it. Forced into its hardcore tutorial, Hal adapts, thrives, and emerges with the perfect class for an auto mechanic: [Voltsmith].
His new class promises to teach him the very secrets of the Universal Order. All he needs to do is understand the underlying principles of magical engineering, use them to build bigger weapons and greater tools, and perhaps even uncover the inner workings of the system itself.
But as Hal builds his creations and grows in power, his enemies grow stronger, too—and not just the ones in the dungeons across Chicago. Gangs looking to rule, rogue tutorial survivors, and powerful world bosses roam the city, and beyond its borders, there’s smoke on the horizon.
Hal’s ready, though. The apocalypse is just a bunch of nails, and he’s making hammers. It’s time to engineer his way through the apocalypse.
©2025 Aest Belequa (P)2025 Royal Guard Publishing LLC* narrator very good at female voices
* system only has 3 stats numbers, without any of those "Int" that doesn't make you smarter nonsense
* MC is a real mechanic i.e. he actually jerryrig equipments and consumables from parts, as oppose to using it as a plot device to summon techs out of thin air
* MC doesn't have any overpowered cheat - he gave up magic in order to craft
* MC is very competent i.e. will make plans to solve problems/win fights intead of relying on luck
What I don't like:
* narration pacing is very slow (have to listen at 1.2x speed)
* frequent PoV switches among allies, enemies, and even monsters, but I only like 2 characters out of all the cast
* signiciant amount of politics i.e. dealing with people (both friendly and enemies)
* MC occationally make dumb decisions such as going soft on enemies
* fight scenes are lacking due to MC being a crafter -> have to rely on his crafted tech instead of martial techniques or magic
