All Song Yintao did was win first prize in a mall raffle, and she was forced to become a beta tester for a game.
Word has it that the game Beyond took years to develop before finally making its debut.
Its selling point is offering players the most realistic experience.
A mysterious village from the 1960s
A dead city from an unknown era
An asylum no one dares go near
The first level of the game is to find the culprit behind the headless corpse in the village.
Instead, the players all end up as headless corpses.
Song Yintao, a half-trained young Taoist, suddenly realizes that she's the only one who entered the game through a different route.
In other words, she's playing a pirated copy.
Pirated games are full of bugs. She can raise the affection levels that other players can't, kill the monsters they can't clear, and get ten times the gold for them.
Every now and then, she even gets a piece of top-tier gear.
And so she begins her cheat-fueled gaming career.
[You killed the legless ghost and obtained a special pill that makes you three centimeters taller.]
[You killed the disguised seductress ghost and obtained acting skills worthy of an Oscar-winning actress.]
Song Yintao says: That's it?
Why bother killing monsters?
Facing the many terrifying NPCs, she puts down her peachwood sword and begins her performance.
"Sob, sob, Brother Qiao Nan, did my sister misunderstand us? I only wanted to be nice to you, that's all. Why is she angry?"
"Brother Wei Jian, I don't want to see you suffer because of me. There's no room for three in a relationship, so I'll leave."
"If I had a girlfriend as beautiful as your sister, I wouldn't have the heart to make her cry."
Theme: Hard work brings wealth, even if you get rich off someone else's hard work.
