The weightless feeling of the elevator falling at a rapid speed was the last clear fragment of Xie Chen's consciousness. When he was on the verge of death, a vast, cold, and indescribable will came and forcibly pulled him back from the edge of death. As a price, he was branded with the mark of the evil god's favor and thrown into a horrifying world full of twisted monsters and death rules.
However, unlike other players who are struggling to survive, Xie Chen has acquired a strange talent-the Emotional Reaper. He can sense, guide and even manipulate the emotions of those terrible beings: nourish himself with fear, exchange despair for strength, use anger to light traps, and even use comfort... To steal a trace of false loyalty.
The ferocious resentful spirits became his "experience package" to improve his mental toughness, the roaring monsters were his "material library" for refining cursed weapons, and the weird scenes were his "testing ground" to test his talents. While others were screaming in fear in the dark, Xie Chen was calmly evaluating which part of the "harvest" had the highest emotional gain.
But this favor from the abyss is not free. As he continued to grow stronger, the connection between his soul and the evil god deepened, and whispers lingered in his ears. He must walk carefully on the edge of the blade: he must not only use this power to survive in the infinite nightmare, but also avoid being completely reduced to a puppet controlled by the evil god under the temptation of power, or even... Part of himself.
This is a dangerous journey that turns thriller gaming into a dark development. He is both prey and hunter; he is a shepherd and may also be the ultimate sacrifice.
