Genshin Impact: The Ultimate Victory of a Hardcore Grinder

Hardcore game developer Lin Mo'ao dies suddenly from overwork and transmigrates to the outskirts of Mondstadt in Teyvat, just as Dvalin rampages through the area. Killed instantly from the start, he unexpectedly unlocks a hardcore gamer interface that makes the data of everything in Teyvat visible. Monster health, attack windups, and NPC affinity levels are all clear at a glance, and he also gains the unique ability to save and reload through SL.

Using his professional game development skills, he exploits the game mechanics to speedrun everything. He clears every Mondstadt chest and achievement, outclasses the whole city in alchemy, and steals the show in a tavern contest. When the Abyss Order uses corruption to control Dvalin and the Knights of Favonius are powerless to stop them, Lin Mo repeatedly reloads to test the Dragon King for weaknesses, clears the Stormterror crisis without taking a hit, and becomes Mondstadt's wildly popular oddball.

Unknown to him, Celestia has already identified him as an external virus and is waiting for a chance to format and erase him. The Seven Gods both try to recruit him and remain on guard, while the Abyss Order wants to use his abilities to overthrow the established order. The mysterious player K makes a sudden appearance, and Paimon's buried secret about her lost memories comes to light, far more terrifying than the Abyssal calamity. A struggle involving gods, the Abyss, and players from beyond this world is set in motion by his SL exploits.
