Arknights: I Became an NPC in an Online Game

Arknights is a new-generation MMORPG that reached a peak of eighty million players online worldwide. Its setting, Terra, is not Holy Terra, just Terra. It is thirty times the size of Blue Star, with vast lands and frequent Catastrophes.

After an accident, player Xia Yuan transmigrates to the time before the game launches, but his identity changes from player to NPC. He has all the functions of an NPC. In players' eyes, he's a mysterious merchant, a mentor who helps them pursue their dreams, and a man female players can't even dream of getting.

He's Terra's spiritual mentor, a fake priest, a dreamer, a thinker, a reformer, a philanthropist, a loner, a seeker, an explorer, a pioneer...

"Make the players happy while playing the game, and skim a little off the top." Jeston once said, "I dare take two or three punches from Saria, but I wouldn't dare take a single punch from Xia Yuan. Even if God ordered me to, I'd go to war with God."

Arturo once said, "Xia Yuan's desires make me want to perform in front of him for three days and three nights."

Patriot once said, "Your, ideal, is also, real."

MacArthur, a five-star American Operator, once remarked, "All it takes is a slight effort from him to take over the trending topics on the entire Terra Daily. When I saw Xia Yuan on the battlefield, I knew it was already too late to retreat."
