My Endgame Game

When Cui Silong woke up, he was lying in a sealed gray-white room with nine equally bewildered strangers.

They had no memories and no way out. A voice told them only this: this was the "Land of the End." Every ten days, the world reset, and everyone was reduced to bloody pulp. Only those who awakened an "Echo" could carry their memories into the next cycle. To escape, they had to earn 3,600 "Dao" through the games.

There were death games overseen by the twelve zodiac signs, immortals who had survived thousands of cycles, gamblers who staked human lives, and despairing souls driven mad by endless repetition.

With the instincts of a career forged into his bones, Cui Silong, a former criminal police officer, became the only person in the first game, "The House of Lies," to see through the truth.

But he soon uncovered an even more terrifying secret:

In every cycle, one "Cui Silong" dies.

And he has already died ninety-nine times.

In each of his previous ninety-nine lives, he failed to awaken an Echo.

If he fails again this time, he will vanish from the Land of the End forever.

The ten-day countdown begins now.
