Prince: My Borderland Players Have Brain-Computer Interfaces

[The Fourth Calamity + Players Descend + System + Farming and Development + Wild Ideas + Advancing Technology + Comedy + Ensemble Cast + Western Fantasy]

My name is Lane. I transmigrated into a prince, only to be banished to the border and the “blessed land” of White Stone Village.

The place is besieged on all sides: monsters from the cursed land ahead show up every day, bandits on the left are getting ready to form a rebel gang, and cultists on the right are constantly plotting some earth-shaking scheme to overthrow the kingdom. As for the kingdom’s only fortress behind me? Its garrison is busy figuring out how to tie me up and deliver me to my elder brother for a reward.

The village’s residents are quite the “dream team”: a nun who loves drinking and preaches with her fists, a druid who looks completely unreliable, and…

Just as I’m despairing, the System finally arrives! But when I check it out, there’s no strength, no shop, no items… It’s basically just a “human resources delivery device for another world,” and its only function is to summon players.

Fortunately, it can use a brain-computer interface to implant knowledge directly into both the players and me. Even a total novice with no academic knowledge can draw up an aircraft carrier blueprint or design a nuclear bomb in an instant.

But here’s the catch: I have to boost the game’s popularity myself to summon players!

Fine. If I don’t have cheats, I’ll make my own. It’s just a matter of using modern knowledge to upgrade magic in another world and leading a horde of immortal, wildly imaginative members of The Fourth Calamity to bring about a little “civilizational upgrade” in this medieval fantasy world, right?

Heh, when I put it that way, things are about to get a whole lot more interesting.
