I’m an NPC in a Paranormal Dungeon

[Feel-good power fantasy] + [a touch of horror] + [Superpowers] + [single heroine]

It is the year 2107, the twentieth year of global contamination. Strange creatures appear with alarming frequency, the System has arrived, and superpowered individuals have emerged in response. Cities overrun by infection have become “forbidden zones,” and everyone inside them possesses strange traits. The System calls these forbidden zones “dungeons.”

But people know this isn't just a game. The infection is spreading, and the space humanity has to survive is shrinking. To restore normal life, they must clear the dungeons.

One day, Lu Lin, who lives in Fanyang City, suddenly notices a lot of outsiders appearing. They call his hometown a “horror forbidden zone” and say he's an NPC... But his hometown is clearly a harmonious, loving, award-winning civilized city.

(PS: The male lead's stats are absurdly overpowered.)

Outside the forbidden zone, Jiang He, heiress to the Eternal Night Conglomerate in Whale Sea City, suddenly comes across a pirated novel-reading device with prophetic powers. It shows her a miserable future. Determined to change her fate and get close to the protagonist, she starts searching for someone with a protagonist's aura.

[Lu Lin, a model citizen with a villain's aura, passes by.]

His enormous aura shines so brightly it nearly blinds her.

The pirated reader's typos and garbled text show their power. Jiang He believes she's found hope for the future: “Boss, save me!”
