When Lin Mo awakens as “Mo Lin,” a newbie-village item merchant NPC, he finds a bright red data tag floating above his head, marking him for deletion
This isn't a game world at all. It's a carefully designed slaughterhouse for civilizations, built by a higher civilization.
The players think they're enjoying a thrilling transmigration game, but in truth, they're just being fed to the Gu.
The NPCs think they're simply doing their jobs, but the next moment, a Purge Protocol could erase them from existence.
With the accidentally bound [Paradox Engine], Lin Mo begins devouring player Systems like mad:
> ▸ Analyze sign-in rewards and piece together a counterfeit Ancient Saint Physique
> ▸ Fuse cultivation talismans with mech cores to create psionic pulse cannons
> ▸ Rewrite resurrection rules and graft dungeon boss stats onto newbie training dummies...
> As players around the world cheer on the first “story NPC” to become a god,
> the Creator's all-seeing system has already flagged him as the number-one virus.
> “Either I vanish in the Fourth Calamity's purge, or I corrupt the higher-dimensional code... I choose godhood!”
