On June 1, 2049, the veteran Xianxia online game "Jiutian OL" announced that it would be shut down.
All players were offline, and the system began to delete files, but no one knew that there were still "people" in the game who didn't want to die.
Han Xiao, an outer disciple of the Qingyun Sect, has a fifth-grade miscellaneous spiritual root and a combat power of 5. He is a cannon fodder NPC that is casually brushed by players.
There is no system or plug-ins. His only bargaining chip is a "Life Player's Notebook" left by a player and a scarlet countdown hanging before his eyes: 72:00:00.
The rules are hard-coded: NPC must be "killed once by a player" before closing the server, otherwise the data will be erased.
Han Xiao wants to survive this dead end—
He faked his death by relying on the explosion of the alchemy furnace, and seized the wild dog's house to rebuild his sense of smell;
Use the life mechanism to block server bugs and postpone "certain death" to 48 hours later;
Cooperate with "life NPCs" such as the auction house, teleportation array, and spirit animal pen to launch a rule virus and forcibly kidnap the server's computing power;
In the end, the entire game world was compressed into offline files at the last second of shutting down, and smuggled into reality.
From miscellaneous spiritual roots to a life-cultivator, he is not a cultivator of immortality, he is a life-cultivator——
What you are repairing is the life that has been written to death by the system, and what you are repairing is the life that NPCs can survive.
When the screen went black, a 2.15G "Jiutian Offline. Exe" was quietly lying on a certain programmer's hard drive.
Clicking on the icon, a dog carrying a pill furnace looked up——
"Han Xiao, the life-cultivator, is offline."
