The main story is complete! I'm doing a major overhaul of the whole novel, so it will differ quite a bit from pirated copies!!
The entire novel costs only as much as a cup of milk tea made with non-dairy creamer and no toppings. It's so cold out, and I'm hoping my generous readers will buy this little author a cup of hot milk tea. Please~ (sincere face)
Blurb:
In trials where contestants fight for survival resources in the City of Mirror Walls, if they had to name the craziest contestant, Bai Ziyuan, leader of the Dawn Expedition, would come in second. No one would dare claim first place.
The villagers of [Longevity Village] build a temple for the God of Years and capture contestants to serve as soul vessels for the wealthy.
Other contestants: hiding, swallowing their pride, and sacrificing teammates.
Bai Ziyuan sets everything ablaze: Burn, God of Years!
The townspeople of [Town No. 14] build a statue for the God of Love and force all contestants to assimilate into the town and become part of its bizarre rules.
Other contestants: trembling with fear, obeying the rules, and beating up their teammates.
Bai Ziyuan swings a club: Shatter, God of Love!
The employees of [Red Heart Incubator Media Company] offer their hearts to the God of Pleasure, turning the contestants into nourishment for the god.
Other contestants: being skinned and having their hearts ripped out, slowly transforming, and falling into endless despair.
Bai Ziyuan strikes with his crutch: Explode, God of Pleasure!
Everyone in the city can't take it anymore. "What the hell? Is he a contestant or a criminal?"
Bai Ziyuan holds a fragment of a god. "I'm only looking for my mother, really."
Later, everyone watches this dutiful young man fight his way to the highest level of the city, straight toward the gods' dwelling, and point his sword at the lofty old gods.
Only then do they realize that an old god had long ago personally offered him a heart.
That day, an announcement appeared before every resident of the City of Mirror Walls.
[The new god of the City of Mirror Walls has ascended the throne.]
[The dawn of all humanity has arrived. Darkness retreats, and a new era begins!]
Reader's Guide:
A highly intelligent, outwardly cold but inwardly warm bottom, determined to rise from exploited peasant to triumphant songbird (Bai Ziyuan) x a top who finds all sorts of ways to help his beloved destroy his own divine nature (Zou Yu)
1. Slow burn, 1v1. The top makes brief appearances at the beginning and end of the first instance, and starts to have more of a presence in the second.
2. The top is a god in every instance. Though he isn't the original body, he isn't a fragment either.
---- A sneak peek at the upcoming novel, The Cannon Fodder Employee, but the Chosen Client ----
Su Nian, the most difficult client in the business world, is selected by the "Doomed Cannon Fodder" System and dragged into a melodramatic tragedy to slave away.
His role is to keep doing things that get himself killed, helping the main couple fall in love, and then be driven to a miserable death by the main top's older cousin.
On the first day after transmigrating into a book, he's told that every day he must randomly draw a client quote to use to stop the main couple from getting their happy ending.
The System gives an example: "You're lazy and greedy, and love saying, 'It's missing a little something.' This makes the ambitious main bottom work overtime until he collapses outside the office. But you secretly copy his presentation and take it to your manager. When he misses an important meeting, you're appointed as the client... &*%...?!"

Su Nian: Tsk, so many bidders?
No matter. Being the client is all there is to it, right?
He's the best at being a client. -w-

[It's Missing a Little Something]
The "Everyone's Darling" System's clueless pretty boy causes a misunderstanding, bringing the main couple's contractual marriage to the brink of collapse.
Su Nian: "This version of the divorce plan, v18.1.0, isn't bad, exactly. It's just... well, it's missing a little something. You know what I mean, right? Go back and revise it."
The main couple stare at each other in despair. "We're not getting divorced. We won't get divorced, okay?!"
[How Many More Versions Can You Submit Today?]
The "White Lotus" System's seemingly vulnerable but scheming man smears the main bottom, leaving him unable to defend himself at the top's family banquet.
Su Nian: "There's something odd about the evidence case you submitted, but I can't put my finger on it. How many more versions can you submit today? We'll go over them in a meeting later."
The scheming man confesses on the spot. "I made it all up! I was lying! I don't want to work overtime!"
[I Had Such High Hopes for You]
The "Overachiever" System's hard-working try-hard pushes himself to the limit, dragging Su Nian into pointless overtime too.
Su Nian: "This isn't the level of efficiency I expect from someone at your level. I had such high hopes for you, but now I'll have to reconsider."
The try-hard bursts into tears. "Please, no! Don't be disappointed in me!"
[Are You Free? Come to My Office]
Now a newly appointed director, Su Nian takes a liking to a new employee and plans to use a few little tricks to pursue him.
After sending the text, the employee obediently comes to his office, just as expected.
Su Nian, scheming version: Heh heh.
-
After winning and completing his run in the infinite-flow world, Shen Siming finds a peaceful server and settles into the quiet life of a powerful big shot.
Who could have guessed that a crowd of weirdos would suddenly show up? They can't affect him, but they do disturb his peace and quiet.
One day, while discreetly inspecting a grassroots department, he receives a text from the company's new director, Su Nian.
[Are you free? Come to my office]
The "Big Shot Retirement Services" System: "Well, I'll be! Which little nobody is trying to disrespect my boss now? Boss, want me to take him down?"
Shen Siming narrows his eyes dangerously. "Go down and take him... I mean, check him out."
--
A year later, the "Doomed Cannon Fodder" System finally manages to log in again, only to be reported by all the other Systems as soon as it comes online.
The other Systems grit their teeth. "Why did you give him such an overpowered golden finger?!"
The System opens its eyes and sees that all the chosen ones have become obedient little subcontractors trailing behind Su Nian!
Even more terrifying, the notorious older cousin, Shen Siming, crawls out from under the desk. His gaze is burning as he looks at Su Nian, and the movements of his hands make a suggestive splashing sound.
"Baby, did I get what you were looking for today?"
The System: ...No, seriously, man, is this right?
Su Nian: Heh. You don't understand the power of the client.
