In 2432, the gaming industry had expanded dramatically and become a mainstream economic force.
The industry giant's newly developed full-dive game, Overlord, was about to enter its public beta.
Lin Chen had struggled to get a spot in the game.
But after logging in, he discovered that he'd activated the [Favorability System].
Every NPC had a favorability rating displayed above their head.
The System told him how to raise each NPC's favorability.
Once he maxed out an NPC's favorability, Lin Chen could take on that NPC's role for a day.
And so Lin Chen began living off other people's hard work.
A day as the weapons shop owner:
Lin Chen: “Our shop's new weapon mystery boxes might contain legendary gear!”
The players snatched up the boxes, only to find nothing but worthless white gear inside, while Lin Chen raked in a fortune.
A day as the Treant King boss:
The elite squad from the top guild showed up to raid him, decked out in all kinds of rare gear.
One slap from Lin Chen, and shiny golden equipment burst across the ground.
“Hand it over!”
As he took on more and more NPC roles, Lin Chen gradually realized that he might actually be invincible.
Really well written❤️ Young readers who maliciously report for updates make me heartbroken😭
It's really beautiful, but it's a pity it's broken
