Lu Ping'an originally thought that with the onset of the Extraordinary Era, the nature of war would change.

"The essence of war has never changed, whether weapons are blades, firearms, or drones; the exchange ultimately centers on resources and life...."
Rule-level is dubbed a human-shaped nuclear warhead, but try detonating them on the battlefield.
Before you can kill many, an enemy's nuclear warhead will crash directly into you.
