The Player Doesn't Want to End Up in Miserable Qin

Mad Qin is a full-dive simulation game released in the future. It claims to be the most realistic, diverse, complex game of its kind, and the best at exploring human nature. Once players enter the game, they can choose their own mode: romance, city-building, farming, and more. It is all about variety, inclusivity, and freedom. [Romance Mode] You are the daughter of a minor noble in Zhao, beautiful enough to make fish sink and the moon hide. Next door lives a mother and son from Qin. You grew up together as childhood sweethearts... Because of his status, he is bullied. You save him. You know this story by heart. Decades later, he conquers your homeland. Bad ending. [City-Building Mode] Choose from Zhao, Yan, Qi, Chu, Han, Wei... or Qin. Choose one of the first six states: Years later, your country is conquered, and you end up working in Qin. Choose Qin: Years later, thanks to your diligence, you become a workhorse. [Farming Mode] Because cooking techniques have been lost to the ages, you start by buying seeds, planting crops, and raising pigs. Thanks to your hard work and sweat, ten years later, you finally get to eat a somewhat authentic plate of braised pork. You: "..." You: "…" You go mad! You are an ordinary, penniless college student. The game System comes looking for you, promising a hundred million in prize money if you complete a task that will make you famous in history. Your heart stirred, you immediately sign the contract selling yourself into servitude. The next moment, you land face-first in the soil of Qin. After being put through the wringer by multiple modes, including [Romance Mode], [City-Building Mode], and [Farming Mode], and failing spectacularly, you finally understand a great truth about life. All those fancy gimmicks are pointless. There is no way this damn game is going to let its players succeed easily. Being too honest will only lead to failure! Fortunately, the game System sees how hard a time you are having and gives you a little compensation. [Customize Appearance] Looks don't matter. Let's randomize. [Choose Clothes] Clothes don't matter. Dressing too well might even get you arrested. [Choose Abilities] Brains are important. Put all the bonus points into intelligence, max out the stat, and get top-notch learning ability! [After 208 resets, the player learned to speak the local Qin dialect fluently.] [After 2,080 resets, the player made a homemade bomb.] [After 3,042 resets, the player extracted a little allicin.] The player began a journey of madness. #I die, I reload. You die, you go to heaven.# #Give you all the chances you want, you still can't kill me!# #I've got a bomb, so you'd better listen to me.# #As long as I go mad enough, I'll make history.# In 258 BCE, Qin Shi Huang, Ying Zheng, is born. In 250 BCE, the nine-year-old future emperor, Ying Zheng, encounters a mysterious person on his way home one night. The stranger is cryptic, speaks in riddles, and acts like a lunatic... The future emperor falls victim to a mini version of an old-age scam: a childhood scam. He is then forced to make his debut on the spot, becoming one half of a missionary duo for the Cult of Science. They call themselves the Golden Boy and Jade Girl. A thousand coins, and you and our sect are fated to meet; Five thousand coins, and our sect is fated to meet you; Ten thousand coins, and I'll find a way to make us fated to meet! From this point onward, the kings of Yan, Zhao, Qi, Chu, Han, Wei, and Qin all fall prey to their very own old-age scam (terror and intimidation). Well, of course, all of the above happened in unofficial histories. The future Qin Shi Huang, Ying Zheng, who hates all feudal superstition and believes only in science, and his state preceptor, Zhao Ning, would never admit to scamming or threatening people. Thank science. Records of the First Emperor: Unofficial History, by Sima, who would rather not give his full name Blurb to be decided January 20, 2022 Theme: The Ancestral Dragon is the best!!
