Wu Zhe had received nineteen rejection letters and was so broke he had nothing but his worthless life. A loner who had cut himself off from society, he was on the verge of starving to death when he impulsively clicked on a shady pop-up glowing with the same RGB colors as “Macau’s First Online Casino.”
He thought the worst that could happen was getting sent to northern Myanmar to have a kidney stolen. Instead, the “Arcade” forced him into a job as a “Clause Creator (Temporary Blame-Taking Contractor Edition),” a position where he could drop dead at any moment!
From the start, it was hell mode: he landed in a world where language itself was law, an infernal universe where even saying hello had to comply with the “Universal Greeting Standards.”
All he had was a ballpoint pen with side effects.
Playing by the rules? I’ve read every kind of predatory fine print, spent years baiting people into breaking the rules on online forums, and am a top-tier troublemaker whose mental state is ten versions ahead of humanity!
“Rules can be broken, right? Then today I’ll teach you what ‘the final interpretation belongs to me’ means!”
Watch as this mentally unstable “commoner” uses a lousy pen and outrageous bug exploits to put worlds on the brink of destruction back on track, and match wits with the beings who toy with everything.
Ready for a cross-departmental team-building exercise involving a whole lot of physical violence?
