Livestreaming the Collapse: I Save the World in a Game

[Fantasy mystery + game transmigration + reality erosion] Popular streamer Lin Ye is livestreaming New Era when strange garbled text suddenly flickers across the screen. The next second, a BOSS from the game tears through the dimensional barrier and appears in his livestream... Lin Ye discovers he has gained the “Eye of Code,” which lets him see the game’s underlying data. He gradually realizes that New Era is no ordinary VR game, but an artifact of an alien civilization that is beginning to awaken. The game company is hiding the truth, the military wants to control this power, a hacker group is trying to liberate the AI, and the NPCs have already formed a resistance. Every faction wants to use him, the “anomaly.” When Lin Ye discovers that the memories of his life may be implanted code, that his most trusted teammate is actually a military agent, and that dying in the game is beginning to cause brain death in the real world, he chooses to turn dark, becoming the most uncontrollable variable among all the factions... “Since you all treat me like a chess piece, I’ll flip the whole board.”
