The Green Tide swept across Linjiang. This seemingly sudden apocalyptic disaster was actually the 37th cycle of a selection process set in motion by an extraterrestrial Creator.
Shen Yan watched his brother die with his own eyes. As he searched for the truth amid endless despair, he discovered that the disaster before him had never been a natural calamity. K, the player who ruled over countless cycles, was merely a program-controlled puppet in the selection plan.
Relying on calm deduction and the power of reverse adaptation, he personally killed K and shattered the Green Tide beta test. The old simulator collapsed, and the **National Fortune Livestream System suddenly descended upon the entire world**.
Every sovereign nation selected its own chosen one. They would all enter identical eerie instances and face rule-based horror stories riddled with hidden traps. In the instances, a single violation meant being devoured by an eerie creature, and the chosen ones' lives and deaths directly affected their nation's fortune.
Shen Yan earned China's only SSS rating and unlocked the legendary ultimate resurrection ability. To bring back those who had died, he entered mysterious instances and competed against chosen ones from around the world, fighting to the death against endless eerie creatures amid rules where truth and falsehood intertwined.
The road ahead was fraught with danger, and a vast deception hidden behind the National Fortune System quietly awaited exposure.
