On the day "Eternal Brightness" was shut down, the number of people online in all servers was: 1.
That 1 is Chen Deng. He has been the tombkeeper of this game for six years - teaching during the day, maintaining it at night, and writing more than 4,000 inspection logs. The last line of it is: everything is normal.
At three o'clock in the morning, the lights overhead flickered. When he opened his eyes again, he was lying on the lighted well platform that he maintained with his own hands.
The hunger is real, the pain is real, and there is no resurrection after death. The one hundred and thirty-seven names he entered into the database back then are now all living people.
Then the old players fell from the sky. They call killing monsters, robbing and looting, and calling this world a "fat and oily picture".
Fortunately, every line of code for this server was written by Chen Deng. Which wall has no collision, which boss's value is filled in incorrectly, which merchant's purchase price has the wrong decimal point - he knows it all.
The bad news is: each vulnerability can only be used once. Once he uses it, the world will make up for it.
There was another thing he didn't understand - the sender of the email that brought these players in was called "Chang Ming".
That's his admin ID. But he never posted it.
