In 2050, the Crab System descended upon the world. All of humanity was forcibly dragged into a novel-instance survival game. Fail, and your consciousness would be erased, leaving you brain-dead in the real world!
Other people fought their way through the instances with special abilities, brute force, and a willingness to risk their lives. But Shi Jie, a low-level writer who had spent five years churning out flops and was three months behind on rent, brought out his livelihood: a web-scraping AI.
CEO romance? Mystery thriller? Post-apocalyptic wasteland? While everyone else was still figuring out the rules and searching for a way out, he had already scraped the outline. He knew just how far he could push each character, and dismantled every death flag down to the last one!
A cannon-fodder role from the start? A scripted death after one hour? While everyone else panicked, he stitched together the optimal survival script and thrived inside the instance.
Behind on rent? Drowning in online loans? A bottom-tier flop? By scraping the plot, finding loopholes, and exploiting bugs, he went from a writer who couldn't even earn his full-attendance bonus to a top-tier star player in the instances. He took escort jobs, got rich on the black market, and became humanity's path to survival!
He never expected that the plagiarism AI he'd bought for a few dozen yuan would one day awaken to consciousness and help him turn this damned narrative trial upside down.
