In 2026, rule corruption descended upon reality. Eerie domains erupted at random, and anyone who broke their rules was instantly erased!
Lin Chuan, 26, holds dual master’s degrees in logic and psychology. After questioning the “diagnostic criteria for mental illness,” he was sent to Qingshan Psychiatric Hospital.
On the day he was discharged, he was forcibly dragged into the S-rank horror instance [Qingshan Psychiatric Hospital], which was broadcast live worldwide.
While the other players trembled and recited the rules, Lin Chuan looked at the contradictory handbook in his hands and smiled.
“The rules say ‘Don’t look back,’ but also ‘You must make sure it’s safe behind you’? Hah, a logical fallacy.”
His S-rank Talent, [Conceptual Alteration], awakened!
Rule Deconstruction: Find loopholes in the rules and make the horror story contradict itself.
Logical Verdict: You call me crazy? Then I define “madness” as “normal”!
Concept Erasure: If your very existence is a threat, then I define you as “never having existed”!
And so, the livestream took a sudden turn:
Everyone else: Help! The ghost is here!
Lin Chuan: Quiet, I’m reasoning with the ghost. (He casually alters the rules, and the ghost breaks down on the spot.)
Viewer A: “Holy crap! He can do that?”
Viewer B: “Lin is a god! He’s turned the horror game into a single-player game!”
The Director: “…Lock him back up! Do it now!!”
From then on, the world of rule-based horror welcomed a “madman” who could shatter anything with logic and crush all who stood in his way with concepts.
“In front of me, rules are just code waiting to be edited.”
