Survival in All Worlds: Starting from Being Laid Off

Lin Chen, twenty-eight years old, was an extremely ordinary worker. On the day he was laid off, he discovered a spiral dark red mark on his left wrist that couldn't be rubbed away, as if it had grown from the skin. The next day, he received news that his parents had died in a car accident—it was no accident. He walked into the tower that only he could see. The tower has hundreds of floors, and each floor is the remains of a destroyed world: in an abandoned hospital, corpses wander in the corridors, calling the names of their parents; in an isolated city at the end of the world, survivors survive by eating the memories of their companions; Qingyun Sect, Star Battlefield, Fog City... Countless worlds were "eaten" on the last night, solidified into layer-by-layer copies. There are no systems, no progress bars, no rules of kindness. Survive, or become part of the tower - the assimilated tower climbers will forget who they are and become the "boatman" and "tower guard" in the tower, like a shadow, accepting other people's wishes for the tower. Lin Chen climbed higher and higher, and fell deeper and deeper. He gathered the forgotten names one by one, lit the lamps that no one remembered, and gradually spelled out the truth about the tower: the tower owner was the first person to pass the level, he swallowed countless worlds, and lived for more than a thousand years by eating the names and wishes of living people. What Lin Chen collected along the way were the seven cores that could blow up the tower. He has no ambition to save the world, he just wants those names he remembers to go home. He also didn't know that at the end of this journey, there would be a decisive battle that he would have to fight for with his own life. The darkness of the tower has no end, and so does Lin Chen's road. He won and he lost. The last thing that remembered him was the tower.
