Entering Bell Tower Town for the thirty-first time, Zhou Chi didn't even pack his luggage.
The first thirty times, he died on the seventh day. Drowning, falling, being disemboweled, having his throat stabbed by his own people - the method of death is never repeated, and the effect is exactly the same: his body will leave a key clue, allowing the man named Gu Changming to survive to the end, pass the level, and receive the prize.
On the thirtieth settlement interface, there was only one line that belonged to him:
[Functional role·Sacrifice position·Completion degree 100%, no reward this round]
It turns out he was never a player. He is the commentator on this book.
For the thirty-first time, when the bell tower struck the first bell, Zhou Chi did not rush into the basement to save anyone. He was sitting on the church bench with a black leather book in his hand. Six words were written on the first page: Narration permission·Activated.
There are only three rules: the narration written must be **possibly true**; for every narration written, his sense of existence decreases by one; once the narration is taken seriously and acted upon, it solidifies into fact.
He can't kill people, he can't change settings, he can only decide who sees what.
So the five people in the team heard a girl calling for help in the basement, saw the hands of the clock tower pointing to eleven o'clock, and read an extra line of blood writing on the wall. They believed, they moved, and the world came to be as he wrote.
It's just that with every stroke he writes, he looks lighter in the mirror.
What he wants is not to pass the level. He will be written as "Zhou Chi" on the settlement interface.
The price is: when he writes that line, there will be no one left in the world who remembers him.
