My Empress Keeps Disappearing [Interstellar Livestream]

[The title is from the pursuer's point of view] Also known as The Empress Who Only Wants to Escape [Interstellar] After winning the Grand Slam, esports star Chu Shiqing retires in glory and goes back to college. To kill time, he joins the beta livestream of the first full-dive interstellar online game, For the Throne. Each player chooses an orc cub to raise, with the goal of putting him on the imperial throne. At first sight, Chu Shiqing takes a liking to a seven-year-old cub with a dragon as his phantom beast form and an S2 mental strength rating. Just as he smiles and reaches out, a dark, furry paw grabs his wrist. The cub says, "Choose me. I'll be loyal to you for all eternity, become your dog, and put the empire at your feet." Chu Shiqing looks down and sees a pair of eyes full of yearning and ambition, like those of a hungry wolf. He immediately finds it amusing. This full-dive game really is different. Even the NPCs' emotions seem so lifelike. Once the game begins, other players' cubs are fierce beasts like dinosaurs, lions, and tigers. Chu Shiqing's cub, by contrast, is a skinny little animal with no mental powers, so frail he looks like he could drop dead at any moment. Just as everyone assumes Chu Shiqing is going to lose, the cub starts school, joins the military, ascends the throne, and the Emperor of the Empire wants to marry Chu Shiqing... Players: ??? Is your company having a bug? Programmers, frantic: What do we do? The System has been hacked, and the players are trapped in the game! In the game, on their wedding night: Chu Shiqing clutches his aching back and roars, "This was supposed to be a cub-raising game! How did it turn into a romance game? Give me back my innocence!" The beta test of the full-dive interstellar game For the Throne ends. Just as players are waiting for the public launch, a hundred alien starships descend upon Earth. In an instant, everyone has the same thought: "It's over. Aliens have invaded Earth. We're going to become their slaves." A reporter shakily holds out a microphone to the solemn, imposing man and asks, "Are you here to occupy Earth?" The man, dressed in a black military uniform, answers sincerely, "I have come to bring my empress home." The whole world erupts. * Zongzheng Ye was born on a garbage planet. At seven years old, he thought he would die there and rot into filthy mud. Then one day, a young man appeared before him like a deity, and from then on, his world had light. But his god kept disappearing. At first, he would be gone for a day, then a few days. After their wedding, he disappeared for good. He thought, I have to find my god. Even if I have to destroy every star system, I will find my empress. Theme: Good people are rewarded.
