[Solo Leveling] + [Game Invasion] + [Fusion] + [Divine Pets]
One day, the game Elysium suddenly descended upon reality.
Lin Huai, a professional game booster, chose the Summoner class, which even the game System advised against. He gained the SSS-rank talent [Soulbind All Beings], which lets him turn monsters' souls into spirit skeletons for battle. The more spirit skeletons he transforms, the more his talent can evolve, unlocking new skills.
Summoners have few contract slots, and raising pets is extremely costly?
Lin Huai: "Not a problem. As long as I have enough mental energy, theoretically I can have an unlimited number of spirit skeletons."
The evolution paths of contracted beasts are unknown, evolution is difficult, and a failed evolution can kill the beast?
Lin Huai: "Nothing to worry about. I have unlimited spirit skeletons, so I can fuse them however I like."
And so, Lin Huai led his spirit skeleton army through the game world, claiming first kills, clearing dungeons first, and earning cash.
Then one day, a game update brought monsters into the real world.
All of humanity had to project their in-game equipment, items, and skills into reality to fight off the invading monsters.
Items projected into reality vanished from the game, leaving all players at a loss. Should they keep developing in the game, or focus on protecting themselves in the real world first?
Lin Huai alone didn't care in the slightest.
"I'll develop in both the game and the real world. I want it all!"
