National Fate Horror: I Became a Dungeon NPC

[National Fate + Infinite Flow + Eerie Revival + leveling] Three years ago, the eerie beings descended. Every month, chosen ones from different countries were randomly selected to enter horror-story instances. Clear an instance and your nation’s fate soars. Fail, and the eerie beings invade reality. Shen Yuan spent a hundred years wiping tables at the Yellow Springs Inn. One day, he awakened and discovered that he was actually a native paper-doll NPC in an instance. Even more absurdly, he could see the chosen ones’ System panels, while his own hidden mission was to, drive the chosen ones to their deaths. When the burly American player boasted, “I’ll clear this in ten minutes,” Shen Yuan smiled and offered him hot tea, silently counting down: three, two, one. When the bespectacled man from Sakura Country used an item to block his ears, he failed to realize that the “whispers” were being transmitted through vibrations in the floor. The global livestream chat exploded: [This NPC’s acting is incredible!] [Dragon Country girl, run!] [Shen Yuan is a god!] From paper-doll innkeeper to lord of twin cities, from exploiting loopholes in the rules to becoming the rules themselves, Shen Yuan steps over the corpses of the chosen ones and makes his way toward the door marked “Breeding Farm.” “Dear guest, do not open the door at night.” He smiled with gentle warmth, golden light flickering in his eyes like a serpent’s tongue. “But you may... open the window.” [Identity reversal + satisfying information gap + National Fate livestream + Chinese horror aesthetics]
