Synopsis

[Invincible] [No Female Lead]

After practicing for two and a half years, Jiang Zhe cleared a game called Rule-Based Horror.

After clearing it, he transmigrated into the world of Rule-Based Horror.

Every country in the world selects one chosen player.

Winners bring their nation prosperity.

Losers have a monster randomly descend upon one of their cities, where it wreaks havoc for 48 hours.

Jiang Zhe is selected and awakens an SSS-rank talent: “Unscientific Summoning,” which lets him summon powerful allies from various planes.

His first instance is the nine-star Purgatory: [The Chaotic Courtroom]

[Players will act as lawyers, gathering evidence of criminals' murders for the judge and putting the prisoners to death.]

[Rule One: All the following rules are false!]

[Rule Two: Under no circumstances should you trust the judge, the police, the coroner...]

[Rule Four: At midnight, your physical abilities increase tenfold.]

[Rule Seven: Your memories will be confused during the day. You may no longer be yourself...]

[Rule Eleven: All the above rules are true!]

Faced with rules in total chaos, the other chosen players tread carefully, yet still meet their deaths.

“I died 797 times at this stage in my previous life!” Jiang Zhe smiles knowingly. “Now, a mere nine-star Purgatory!”

“On top of that, I have an SSS-rank talent: Unscientific Summoning.”

“Summon: Edogawa Conan!”

“Now, rules, how do you want me to die?”

I think it's exceptionally well-written; finally, the ghost stories aren't just notes from moms anymore. And the second ghost story is particularly mind-bending and very engaging! I hope the author updates soon, more often; there's simply not enough!

It's clear the author put a lot of effort into thinking about the plot and making the logic sound. I really enjoyed this novel. I don't expect every arc to reach the level of "Space Cube," but I strive for each one to be original and engaging.

Super mind-bending! Although there are a few minor plot holes, it surpasses 99% of the mind-bending books I've read (leaving the remaining 1% for future interpretation). I don't understand why the rating is so low, but it truly is incredibly challenging. Most of the plot holes and foreshadowing are resolved, and the story is beyond imagination.

The book features clear logic and quick thinking, excellent adaptability, and perfect planning. It's rich in philosophical insights, has strong moral values, and combines thrills with a willingness to go all out for what's planned. If you enjoy books with strong logic and philosophical depth, this is a great read.

Well, some of the comments weren't very well written, but his brain was really sharp. The plot twists and turns were simply perfect. Because of some rather mindless comments, I'm giving it four stars.

It's quite mind-bending, especially the first ghost story world, which I really enjoyed. The second world is a bit more challenging, with many details needing polishing, but the author handled it well, showing a strong foundation of knowledge. Keep it up! I'm rooting for you!

It's not bad. The story is decent, quite unique among a bunch of repetitive and meaningless novels. It's the kind of story you can actually deduce with a pen. However, the details are poorly polished; many parts are not done well enough. It feels like the puzzles are being solved just for the sake of puzzle-solving.

It's entertaining, and at least it's a logically-driven supernatural story that requires some thought. I think it's perfect for people who aren't particularly suited to logical thinking but still want to read this kind of story—people who really want to engage their minds. I've actually read *Ten Days to the End*, which is well-written, but a bit too mentally taxing.

Although I only finished one episode, it was really good and well-made. The ending had so many twists and turns that my brain was almost completely overwhelmed. The only downside is that it's a bit short; there's just not enough time to watch it all, hahaha.
