[Reverse Causality Narrative | Explosive from the Start | Nonstop Thrills]
⚠️ Read at your own risk! Once you open this, everything you know about "cause and effect" will be turned upside down!
Everyone else: First comes the cause, then the effect. The protagonist fights monsters and levels up, one step at a time.
My story: The globally recognized, mind-blowing ending is fixed from the start. The protagonist has to complete the causal loop before the time limit, or be erased on the spot!
Wen Ye, an overworked office drone, had just been told by his boss to get lost when the global livestream suddenly lit up with a breaking alert:
[Congratulations to Chinese citizen Wen Ye! Acting alone and barehanded, he disabled three of Country M's overseas military bases and claimed the top spot on the global combat ranking!]
The internet erupted. Wen Ye was dumbfounded.
He had never even been in a fight, and he was still clutching his unfinished resignation letter!
[Rule Notice: Complete a plausible causal chain for this outcome within 24 hours. Failure to meet the deadline will result in complete erasure.]
From then on, Wen Ye embarked on a path of using his wits to make up stories and his logic to achieve godlike status.
You say I'm the world's top hacker? Fine, I'll fill in a complete record of hacking the entire world within 24 hours.
You say I stopped a war between two countries with a single sentence? Fine, I'll come up with the underlying logic that explains how I hold the world's lifeline in my hands.
The whole world was guessing what Wen Ye had up his sleeve. Only Wen Ye knew:
If I don't make up a story fast, I'm dead!
Very well written! I like the heroine very much
