I've finished revising the original 11 chapters. Rubbing my hands together.
In the 23rd century, no one imagined that the tired old plots from horror, sci-fi, and thriller movies would really come true.
Aliens, biological disasters, extraterrestrials invading Earth...
It was as if, overnight, the entire planet had become an absurd play.
And the hardest thing to imagine was that these "uninvited guests" had once been nothing more than strings of virtual code designed by humans themselves.
Zhao, a aloof heartthrob who never plays games, is shoved into a full-dive gaming pod by a friend. There, he meets a cheat-level kid who calls himself Hao, and from then on his whole persona changes.
A message pops up: "Put us together and we make a lucky Zhao. What a perfect couple! Zhao, marry me!"
The friend, who wishes to remain anonymous, says: "Why was I so greedy for that thirty thousand yuan? I gave my childhood friend to some guy who just showed up!"
A famous actor says ominously: "Because we're the real childhood-friend duo."
In four words: Team up to fight monsters; defend early on, counterattack later, and use cheats the whole way through.
A seemingly aloof, untouchable heartthrob who is actually good-natured and even a little soft top × a bottom who lives to use cheats and show off, but definitely won't turn the tables
There is a secondary couple.
Theme: My world only began to turn when I said, "I love you."
