Sample No. 48

[Infinite trials, dungeons, horror, wild imagination, friendship-focused]

After waking from a high fever, I discovered that I was "Daishan No. 48."

My parents before me had a constant body temperature of 36.5 degrees, and the clock at home was forever stuck at 3:17. In the photo album, the "me" in the pictures had a mole on the left earlobe that I didn’t have.

I calmly observed and calculated, then tore this cozy illusion apart with my own hands, until the System told me that the people I had killed were the consciousnesses of my biological parents, imprisoned for ten years.

I became Subject 7749 and was thrown into the [Closed-Loop Society]. Everyone here kills their parents, emotions are an energy source with a clearly marked price, and I am an "anomaly" the System cannot understand: a perfect specimen with zero emotional fluctuation.

It matched me with a teammate, Lin Jin, hoping to use her abundant emotions to "complete" me. We were forced to enter one dungeon after another, each built on twisted family bonds, and unearth the truth in data graveyards and memory corridors: the System feeds on suffering, yet fears the "predators" beyond the stars.

All the clues point to a legendary name: Jiang Che, the Godslayer. They say he knows the ultimate loophole in the closed loop, but he has long since become the System's number-one taboo.

When cold reason meets burning truth, and a specimen decides to break free of its petri dish.

Lin Jin and I stand back to back, facing the System's final question:

"Become the new gods and take charge of this eternal cycle?"

"Slay the old gods and free everyone from suffering?"

We raise our eyes and choose an answer beyond those choices.

This time, the rules of the game between hunter and prey are about to change.
