Rule-based horror descends, and chosen ones enter a living hell.
While everyone else cautiously tests which rules are real, Lin Que awakens the only hidden talent: [Rule Alteration].
Restriction one: Only one rule can be changed at a time.
Restriction two: The more words he changes, the faster his sanity drains.
Warning: When sanity reaches zero, he will immediately mutate into a supernatural entity!
In the face of the S-rank instance, The Flesh Cathedral, and its inescapable rule:
[Those who gaze upon the idol will have their souls tormented forever.]
Lin Que has only 15% sanity left, and his vision is filled with hallucinations.
With a trembling hand, he deletes the word “tormented” and replaces it with “bliss.”
[Those who gaze upon the idol will have their souls forever... bliss.]
He expends 80% of his sanity! Lin Que teeters on the brink of madness, yet leaves the evil spirits filling the cathedral utterly dumbfounded.
“He’s insane! He actually dared to change it?” The global livestream chat erupts.
And as Lin Que laughs maniacally, he swallows his only sanity potion. His eyes gradually clear.
“Next, I’ll change the way you die.”
…
This is a story about using words to reshape the fate of a nation while teetering on the edge between madness and clarity.
