Bai Nuan was bound to an anti-porn... no, a sabotage system!
System: "You've been transported into a horror game. Your task is to fail the team, commonly known as sabotaging things, to add dramatic effect and serve as a foil to the male and female leads. You can go home once you rack up enough 'sabotage points.' Got it?"
Bai Nuan: What kind of amazing deal is this?! Succeeding is hard, but failing? That couldn't be easier.
So Bai Nuan was the first to charge at poisonous items, provoke NPCs, and tear the final boss apart with her bare hands. She did whatever it took to fail the game!
The NPCs trembled: Stay back!
The final bosses collectively questioned their existence: I-I'll tell you how to beat the level! Help!
The audience: This newbie's brave! She doesn't play by the rules! Tips for you! Let's cheer her on!
According to the rules of the game, audience approval was directly converted into points and deposited into Bai Nuan's pocket.
Bai Nuan: Huh, I can exchange points for clues? Then I'll get one. Wait, why does this NPC kneel whenever they see me?
Bai Nuan devoted herself to sabotaging things, and somehow became the first person to clear the game.
Bai Nuan: You can do that? Then I'll fail even more spectacularly!
And the more spectacular result was...
Bai Nuan's popularity kept rising. She overtook the popular streamer, trampled the male and female leads, and became the game's new top-tier star. She even personally dragged the Supreme God off his throne.
The System was so terrified that it constantly teetered on the brink of a garbled mess: Y-you need to take it easy!
Bai Nuan: What's the fun in just going home? Blowing up the game is way more fun!
