I Turned a Fantasy World Into an Online Game!

[Behind the Scenes + Fourth Calamity! I Turned a Fantasy World into an Online Game!] On his eighteenth birthday, poor student Ling Chen received an extraordinary gift: a fantasy world on the brink of destruction and a broken Heavenly Dao! The Heavenly Dao was shattered, its source exhausted, dark creatures ran rampant, and the apocalypse had arrived! Save the world the conventional way? Not a chance! As an experienced game tester, Ling Chen came up with a crazy plan: turn this real fantasy world into a 100% realistic virtual online game called Fantasy, and lure Earth’s players in to work for free! When the game launched, there was no advertising. Instead, beta access was quietly sent to a hundred of the internet’s top-tier stars! “Holy crap! These CG effects must have cost at least a hundred million!” “100% realism? You can feel pain, smell, and touch things? This is basically another world!” “Help! Why are the spiders in the starting village stronger than the final boss? I got killed in one hit!” “You have to wait an hour to revive? And there’s no way to spend money? Is this game’s designer a demon?” While players everywhere went crazy over this mysterious masterpiece and celebrated wildly over getting a single common piece of gear, Ling Chen watched from behind the scenes as his Heavenly Dao source surged at an astonishing rate. The players painstakingly farmed monsters, while he siphoned off 95% of the source rewards! The players thought they were playing a game. Little did they know that they had long since become pawns in Ling Chen’s plan to save the world: the “Fourth Calamity” sweeping across another realm! Watching the top-tier star streamers he had duped into working themselves to the bone, Ling Chen smiled. “Keep grinding, wage slaves! All your hard work is making money for me!”
