Online Game: I Stole the Rules of the World

In 2079, the world’s first fully neural-immersive online game, The Lost Realm, officially opens. There are no fixed storylines, no cities that are safe forever, and no NPCs who are truly immune to death. Hoping to make money, Lu Chen chooses the relatively unpopular Thief class, only to unexpectedly acquire a special talent of unknown quality: [Steal].

At first, he can only steal gold, equipment, and quest items from his targets. Then, after an accident, he discovers that “holding” something does not mean “owning” it, and that his ability truly touches the “ownership” hidden behind the world.

Things begin to get more and more outrageous.

Skills can be stolen, attributes can be stolen, names can be stolen, identities can be stolen. Even a person’s class, territory, and fate, along with the authority held by the gods, can potentially be taken away.

While other players are still studying equipment, levels, and dungeon guides, Lu Chen has already started wondering:

**Is there anything in this world that can’t be stolen?**

However, as NPCs whose names have been erased, mysterious Thief ruins, and lost faiths keep appearing, he gradually realizes that The Lost Realm may not be just a game.

Then, one day after logging out, a line of text that should have existed only in the game appears in the real world for the first time:

[Current Owner: Lu Chen]

At that moment, he finally realizes that perhaps it isn’t the game invading reality.

Rather, The Lost Realm is teaching him to see again

**the true rules of this world.**
