I Got Sucked into a Cyberpunk Game: A Guide to Climbing the Ranks as an Undercover Agent

[Cyberpunk Game] [Undercover Agent Climbs the Ranks] [Max-Level Expert Laying Low in the Beginner Village] [Forum Posts in the Mid-to-Late Game]

Yan Xihe awakened one day to discover that the world she lived in was just a cyberpunk game called Slay the Heavens.

With her memories intact, she watched the game restart again and again as cosplay players ran wild everywhere.

In the first cycle, she was the most notorious arms dealer in the Ground City, with a business spanning the entire game world.

In the third cycle, she was the most mysterious information broker, known for the motto, "Pay enough, and I can get you any piece of information."

In the fifth cycle, she founded the Mechanical Sequence single-handedly. She had countless followers, and every student she took on was a rare talent.

The good news: This girl is ambitious. Whatever she does, she has to reach the very top, and she has several max-level accounts.

The bad news: She stood out too much and attracted the attention of the game's administrators, who chased her down to ban her accounts.

After faking her death, she bound herself to the game System once again. This time, she became the only daughter of the Eternal Day Marshal of Sky City and the sole heir to the founding tycoon family.

The next second, the System coldly announced:

Faction: Ground City

Identity: Undercover agent

Mission: Help Ground City win the War of Slaying the Heavens

After confirming the details with the System, Yan Xihe was thrilled. Thanks to all her hard work, she had finally hit the guaranteed top-tier reward. Giving a schemer a top-notch background was like putting a mouse in a rice jar.

She thought about her "alternate accounts" and decided to go big.

Later, the System was dumbfounded. [Are you an undercover agent, or are you trying to take over the entire game world?!]

Yan Xihe smiled. [I wanted to be a quiet little undercover agent, but they insisted on making me the boss.]

The War of Slaying the Heavens began. The real world was on the brink of disaster, the game world was about to collapse, and the parallel worlds were gripped by fear.

Yan Xihe looked at the first rule in her handbook: [Don't focus only on the game world. The real world and the parallel worlds are also fair game.] She fell into deep thought.

When the game world completely collapses, the real game has only just begun.

Coming soon: How to Imitate Humans [Nonhuman]

Emotionally detached human vs. shameless nonhuman

Wen Ran was born emotionally detached and had trouble empathizing with others. To avoid being treated like a freak, she pretended to be normal.

When her parents threatened her with their lives, she found a fellow patient and entered a whirlwind marriage.

She was only emotionally detached, not mentally ill, and she soon realized there was something wrong with her new husband.

His body temperature never changed, he never got sick, and he barely needed to sleep. He worked from home every day and made an absurdly high salary.

Most importantly, he had no moral restraints, and no sense of shame.

Sheffield came from planet Z062 and landed on Earth by accident. Because he was different, he was sent to a psychiatric hospital, where he met a doctor of his own kind.

The doctor told him that if he didn't want to be treated like a freak, he had to learn to imitate humans.

Wen Ran was the human they chose.

She needed a husband, and he needed someone to imitate.

Every week, Sheffield went to see the doctor under the pretense of psychological counseling, but in reality, he was there to discuss what he had learned.

Week One: His expression was flat as he said, [Humans are boring. The most trivial things can affect their emotions.]

[Humans can't separate love from sex. I don't understand it, and I can't derive pleasure from it.]

[Humans say one thing and mean another. They have a strong sense of morality.]

Week Two: He began to wonder, [What is shame? Why does she refuse to be intimate with me in front of other people?]

[Humans seem to be very enthusiastic about sex.]

[She cries during sex. When I stop, she cries even harder.]

[She slapped me, but I didn't cry. She did. I had to kneel and beg for her forgiveness.]

Week Three: He was a little confused. [Her honeymoon leave is over. The house has become quiet and large.]

[I still don't feel pleasure during sex, but the expression on her face makes me work harder without realizing it.]

[I think I could keep her all to myself. She could stop working, going out, and socializing, and just stay with me.]

Week Four: He didn't come to the hospital. He only sent a text to express his anger. [A human has appeared by her side. That human is provoking me.]

[She has grown cold. She has guessed who I am.]

[She refuses to have sex with me. She wants to leave me.]

[That human must have coerced her with some despicable trick. He has to die.]

Week Five: He smiled, though it was a little stiff. [She says she won't fall in love with anyone. Good. I'm not human.]

[We were made for each other. She is destined to belong to me.]

[My wife is adorable. If you know that, you're dead.]

[I won't be coming back. My wife and I are the same kind.]
