“Stop playing! Log off, now! This game... is alive!”
My name is Lu Pao, a “special NPC” who can see player panels.
I thought the peak of my life would be using these “undying ones” as free labor, turning my little teahouse into the world’s greatest merchant guild, hiring a cool and aloof female general as my bodyguard, and roping in a little fox spirit to keep the books.
Then one day, a BOSS from the game burst through the screen, and a pile of game coins appeared in my bank account.
The worlds are merging, and the game is about to descend!
The players are an unwitting vanguard, the natives are lambs to the slaughter, and I, the only one who knows the truth, have turned my shady business into the one variable in this apocalyptic game.
Will I ascend and become a god, or watch reality fall?
My choice will decide the fate of two worlds!
