Name: Tomb Raiding: I Turned the Whole Chessboard Upside Down
Author: Crispy-Skin Life Preserver

Synopsis

Dual couples, a timeline that keeps jumping back and forth, and an unfriendly portrayal of the Old Nine Gates generation.

“Defying the gods” + “Black Glasses and the Flower” fun + healing old regrets

Cheng Yanqiu is a lone wolf living in a “dark” world, with no ties to hold him back. Yet he looks up to a “deity” who was never his to have, feels for the “young prince” who should have lived freely, and cares for the “begonia flower” that has weathered so much hardship.

On the brink of death, he meets a System called [89757] that claims it can grant his wish.

He endures nine lifetimes in exchange for one complete and happy life.

The protagonist is an ordinary man, yet even an ordinary man can become a “deity.” His long-cherished wish becomes a predetermined task in the System. In the end, will he become the “deity” he once looked up to, or remain himself?

When they gather from different points in time and the pawns become the players, if they return to the moment before the gears turn, will they still reach the destined ending?

The Kid: “I've completed my mission. From now on, I'm your little officer.”

Black Glasses: “Well, well. The boss has stopped being a ‘deity’ and decided to return to the mortal world?”

Xiaohua: “So, we won this game of chess.”

Wu the Puppy: “Huh? Huh?”

(This blurb is hopeless. Please just read the story.)
