Shen Baixu always thought he was an ordinary person living in an ordinary world. But lately, strange and inexplicable things kept happening around him:
The stray black cat he "kidnapped" and brought home grew until it was half the height of a building. Its eyes glowed green in the dark as it toyed with people who came out of nowhere like they were mice. It wouldn't settle down unless he petted and kissed it.
The new CEO parachuted into the company sprouted tentacles. Eight of them whipped through the air, keeping the entire company frantically busy. If they didn't work, they'd die. The only time they got a brief break was when he fed the CEO.
On a luxury cruise vacation, his boss, his boss's sworn enemy, and even the celebrity invited aboard all felt a deep connection with him. Even the deep-sea merfolk who climbed up from beneath the ship in the middle of the night wanted to drag him back to their nest.
Countless bizarre things happened around him. Fortunately, there was always a group of kind people calling themselves players, willing to go to any lengths to deal with them for him.

The endless-instance game began, sucking countless players into the game. They were thrown into a desperate situation from the start and struggled to survive, until they met a gentle young man in one of the instances: Shen Baixu.
Whether it was a supernatural instance plagued by strange events or a horror-story instance with devastating casualties, as long as they earned enough of the young man's favor, they could make it through safely.
Shen Baixu became the only light in the players' hearts in that dark world. With him around, there was hope.
But one day, the abyss split open. Thick black mist billowed as massive tentacles reached out and swept the young man into the depths of the fissure. He was the final boss of the endless game. The light vanished from the eyes of the players who witnessed it.
They gathered all their strength and stormed into the depths of the fissure. There, in a monster's lair woven from eerie nebulae, they saw the young man wrapped in slowly writhing tentacles at its center, his cheeks flushed red.
It didn't look like he'd been having a good time.
At the sight, the players' eyes nearly popped out of their heads. They were about to rescue him when the young man patted the tentacle coiled around him. "Good boy. They're my friends."
The tentacles swayed away in a wavy line. A tall man emerged from the dazzling nebula and wrapped an intensely possessive arm around the young man. "Congratulations on clearing the game. Are you here to attend my wedding to Xuxu?"
The players: #@&*%&$...
Who wants to attend your wedding! Damn game boss, give our light of hope back!!!
