[Welcome, vegetative people from low-dimensional planets, to the virtual reality game Lost!]
Song Lan, a vegetative patient, was sold by her own parents.
She became a real-person NPC in Lost, also known as a lab rat. She had only one life and could wake up only when the game shut down.
After living two lifetimes, Song Lan had never felt so speechless.
In the game, you die if you take the wrong path, if you don't eat, or even if you don't have a place to live! And food, clothing, housing, and transportation all cost money!!
Song Lan, fashion master, stares at the 10 gold coins in her bag and falls into deep thought.
How is she supposed to survive on that?

The Interstellar Alliance issues a mandatory order requiring everyone to play games for two hours a day.
But people in the Alliance have long grown tired of the fighting games on the market.
So when the new role-playing game Lost appears, countless people start playing.
Unfortunately, the good times don't last.
Players with no talent for magic or cultivation can only struggle through training.
Just as players hover on the verge of quitting, exquisite outfits suddenly appear in a clothing shop in the starter village.
Want to become a magician? Buy one!
Want to cultivate faster? Buy one!!
Want to run across rooftops or pluck flowers and leaves from a distance? Buy one!!!
The players of the Alliance finally see new hope.

Later, more and more shops open, selling all kinds of food, hairpins, wood carvings, oil paintings, and other items with special effects…
Some settings may be inspired by various games, but they have all been altered.
The blurb has been revised after the author's mentor's earnest guidance~
------------ Upcoming novels ------------
Upcoming novel 1: I Become a God Through Technology on a Dating Show
Blurb:
After transmigrating into a book, interstellar engineer Kong Fan becomes a cannon-fodder character who puts all her faith in her best friend, only to be pushed into the abyss by her.
Her parents are dragged into the mess and forced to repay her debts, and the company they spent most of their lives building is destroyed.
In the end, her family is torn apart and everyone dies.
When Kong Fan arrives, the plot has just reached the point where the original owner has been tricked into signing three disastrous contracts.
To avoid paying a massive penalty, she has no choice but to appear on a thoroughly ordinary dating show.
Each contestant has their own agenda.
Some want fame, some want profit, and some want to trip Kong Fan up…
The production team has also been bribed, and keeps targeting Kong Fan during filming.
During the contestants' introductions, the director deliberately brings up the junk materials the original owner was tricked into buying.
Kong Fan, who has already discovered that the junk materials are top-grade interstellar materials: ???
You might not believe it, but I've already made those materials into virtual reality headsets!
The show's malicious editing turns Kong Fan into a target of online abuse.
One female contestant who benefits from it even pretends to apologize, stirring up her fans.
Kong Fan, who hasn't read the online comments at all, knows nothing about this. She accepts the apology and encourages the woman to work hard,
leaving the viewers, who were ready to make a few more attacks, collectively speechless.
The director tries every way to reduce Kong Fan's screen time, believing he can quietly lower her popularity.
As a result, he misses the entire process of Kong Fan building a "flying mountain-climbing sedan chair,"
and is mocked and cursed by countless viewers.
Only then do netizens finally realize that Kong Fan's technology seems to be pretty incredible.
The supposedly ordinary dating show becomes a breakout hit as a result.
Later, when they discover that Kong Fan is the real person in control of a virtual reality company, the whole world is shaken!
For the first time, the comments are unanimous: [Kong Fan, you are my god!]

2. The author won't read comments while the novel is serializing. If anything seems wrong, the author's logic must have been eaten by a dog.

Upcoming novel 2: After Transmigrating into a Starter Village Blacksmith Shop NPC
Blurb:
Liang Shi dies after staying up all night checking data.
After death, she transmigrates into a game that hasn't been released yet and becomes a blacksmith shop NPC in the starter village, complete with an NPC interface.
Liang Shi doesn't want to work herself to death again. All she wants is to sleep peacefully, eat, drink, and live in a house with no drafts or leaks, without monsters bothering her.
Ideally, she would just move between the blacksmith shop and the tavern.
She can put in some effort ahead of time to make that happen.
Clear the monsters nearby, gather materials, build a house, make bedding, dishes, and drinking vessels!
Once everything is finished, Liang Shi finally gets the comfortable, peaceful life she wanted.
Then the game launches.
On launch day, the players blow up Liang Shi's house.
Liang Shi: ...

The virtual reality game Through the Ages, which promises that "anything is possible" and "players can change the world," becomes an instant online sensation.
That's because players can increase their mental strength and improve their martial arts skills in the game.
They can even extract items from the game once they meet certain requirements.
The open beta begins, and players flood into the game.
The first thing they do is head straight to the blacksmith shop to get weapons.
Then, in a moment of "excitement," they blow up the entire shop.
The blacksmith shop NPC Liang Shi's approval of them drops to -100.
At first, players look at the frail Liang Shi and can't imagine her working a forge. They treat her as nothing more than a functional NPC who sells weapons, and don't care about her approval rating.
But there are plenty of oddballs among the players, and the shortage of weapons keeps getting worse.
The resulting commotion reaches the blacksmith shop's entrance.
Woken up by the noise, Liang Shi gets out of bed in a foul mood, takes out her giant hammer, and brings it down hard.
The iron pillar on the ground turns into a pile of sharp blades.
The players are so shocked their jaws hit the floor.
From then on, players arrive in an endless stream, bringing fine wine, delicious food, and premium materials just to raise Liang Shi's approval and beg her to hammer something for them. They can't get away from it.
[Note]
1. A laid-back, food-loving heroine who wants to lie flat x a taciturn, wealthy male lead who pampers her (he isn't literally a caretaker; it just means he keeps feeding her)
2. This should be a casual novel in the fourth disaster genre
3. The heroine is the strongest from the start
4. The story is entirely fictional, with a mountain of original settings. Everything serves the plot, so please don't nitpick historical details.
5. The author won't read comments while the novel is serializing. If anything seems wrong, the author's logic must have been eaten by a dog orz
6. This blurb was revised on 2023.9.6
Theme: Strive tirelessly
It is better to completely sever ties with this kind of family members, in a legal sense. But could the company directly sell the heroine who was in a vegetative state at that time? Also, Lan Lan's designs from the previous company should be copyrighted, right? If the company sells Lan Lan, can she take them with her? I hope that I will only give the person named Fu an empty shell. I don't know if it's feasible if I'm not a law student... Then anyway, Lan Lan can cooperate with the game company, and the clothes made in the game can be reproduced 1:1 in reality, and develop her own career! If there is a player base on the interstellar side, let's develop there first. Anyway, the family on the earth side has severed ties and the company has been sold. It doesn't matter. When will the game be promoted to the earth and then developed back?
But I think the writing is pretty good. What I want to read... There is no (lying down) an empty head and no ideas ()
It feels like the male protagonist is surrounded by a bunch of stupid friends and his vision is not very good. The female protagonist feels uncomfortable when she is with him (it is good to treat the male protagonist as a tool, he has status and ability)
It's just... Wasn't there a rule before that said real NPCs should not harm their own kind... Although there would be no punishment if not discovered, wasn't that situation and Song Lan made public? Or do all players need to know it?
Is this newbie's surname Zhang?
I want to see the misfortune of the heroine's family. I want to see the little robot come to life. I want to see the heroine and the hero go to the interstellar.
Can you make the little robot come to life?
It's too dangerous for the heroine to go on missions with them. No matter what, there will be clues about real NPCs pretending to be players. Moreover, the heroine doesn't have the props to change her appearance. A certain one is in the team again.
"Misleading" is a big bug for the author~ dance
I don't have any affection for this man. Was he the one responsible for the announcement of the real NPC? Opinionated
