Can You Cheat at the Gods' Game? [Infinite]

Blurb One day, a line of text claiming to have been written by a god suddenly appeared in the sky above the city, inviting all of humanity to join his game. A flash of white light, and Chi Yu, who was buying a jianbing from a street stall, was forced into an instance. [Players eliminated in the game will also disappear in reality.] >>> Chi Yu opened his eyes in a graveyard. The good news: The god would give every player in each instance a special skill. The bad news: Chi Yu was the only one who didn't get one. But when the players fled to the graveyard's exit and, unable to unlock it, resigned themselves to dying there, he was the only one who pulled a key from his pocket, the one a monster had given him. "I have one, but I don't know if it's the right one?" * The second time Chi Yu opened his eyes, he was in a villa hosting a dinner party. Five monsters were hidden among the thirty players, and every three days, one player would be "eliminated." As everyone in the instance began to break down amid their mutual suspicion, a raven in the villa suddenly spoke to him: "Would you like some help? I can point out the monsters for you." Chi Yu: "...Is this some new kind of scam?" * The third instance was a city under siege by zombies. Surviving an apocalypse instance was hard enough, and he was unlucky enough to get bitten by a zombie. But not only did Chi Yu avoid turning, the biological mother controlling the zombies even sent him supplies. Chi Yu: "Are you guys seriously not messing with me??" * The fourth instance was a game of hide-and-seek aboard a cruise ship. Starting with this round, the god took away everyone's abilities. Chi Yu was escaping when he accidentally fell through a vent. But the ugly monster suddenly reached out and caught him, helping him get away safely. Chi Yu: ??? So now he's the one cheating? * The fifth instance was a terrifying town where the inner and outer worlds shifted into one another. Rooms that kept changing places. Monsters that came closer while invisible. As one instance after another was conquered, the truth about Chi Yu's past gradually came to light. || A Few Things to Know || The character designs are exactly like the cover! 1. This isn't a power fantasy. The male lead never gets any abilities from the god. He relies entirely on help from (some) monsters, though most of the monsters in the instances beat him up along with everyone else. (Special abilities are mostly just background details used to set up the plot.) 2. The male lead's personality and worldview are a little off, so he reacts to certain things in unusual ways... and sometimes does baffling things. Trying to understand him as a normal person might be uncomfortable. 3. No CP and no romance at all. Everything is friendship. Premise: Face life with hope, passion, and love
