The Secret Identity I Tore Off Was a Beautiful, Tragic Wreck

A game NPC discovers the players' identities and begins slaughtering anyone whose identity seems suspicious. Xu Li, whose supernatural ability lets her create secret identities, is put on the wanted list throughout the game. After enduring severe torture, her patience finally reaches its limit. Just as Xu Li manages to escape from her prison after countless hardships, she throws her head back and laughs. The others watch her warily, wondering how she will take her revenge. But Xu Li only sneers. "Looking for Bai Li, are you?" Expressionless, she holds up a bloodied hand and crushes it with a smile as they look on in fury. In a soft voice, she says, "Here. Take it back." ** Her secret identity ability has been exposed, and all the identities she created have become weaknesses that can be exploited against her. To survive, Xu Li has no choice but to kill them one by one and free herself from the entity's control, all while plotting revenge for herself and her identities. But she never expected that after her identities died, the people who hunted the players would regret it. Xu Li sneers. "Then you can go to your graves with my identities!" From her teammates' perspective: More and more tenants are invading our world. They call themselves players. How laughable. The place where we live isn't a game world for them to wander around in. They tried every trick in the book to mislead us into killing one another, but we didn't fall for it. We still did a good job protecting our little sister, our captain, and Doctor Xu. But one day, all the players suddenly disappeared. The always-smiling female mercenary spoke with a haughty air, as if tossing out trash. "Is this what you were looking for?" She sneered and threw away their belongings. "Here. Take them back." She was taking revenge. But they didn't dare lay a hand on her, because they didn't know how many more teammates she had in her grasp. ** A half-cyberpunk setting. Half-mad female mercenary (her true self) x a mercenary captain who can't tell right from wrong and has a vivid imagination The heroine doesn't work as part of a group. She was tortured badly, and she really is taking revenge. It's just that her way of doing it is different from what the NPCs imagine (?). Warnings: Limb severing, though things will turn out well, as the blurb says. The heroine isn't normal and has no sympathy for her secret identities (herself), so many of her actions will seem crazy. A no-brains groveling arc, where the supporting characters blindly believe the secret identities have their reasons. Some secret identities really do die, and the heroine's true identity won't be exposed. Male lead warning. The number of secret identities isn't fixed. I'll see how it goes. I can't wait to tear off some secret identities (not really). A recommendation for my new upcoming novel: How to Build a Legendary University (Secret Identity) Help! The original poster transmigrated and got lucky enough to unlock a way to save the world, but can only do so by running the dilapidated school she inherited well enough to make it legendary. 1L: Easy. What's your golden finger? Just make the most of it. Shi Ying read the reply and fell into deep thought. Would creating secret identities work too? ** A receives a flyer and enrolls at a strange university. Most areas of the school are off limits. That's one thing. But the elusive mecha instructor is a little girl who doesn't even reach his knees when she jumps! The aloof instructor guarding the academy's restricted grounds has an ability that still takes the form of an ancient spirit. He can turn into a white lion, and there's often a voice calling him Chief of Staff! The voice demon who only ever shows them PowerPoint presentations turns out to have been asleep in a recovery pod for a hundred years, which is why he can't come teach them in person! Even the ordinary teaching assistant who lives on campus is a weirdo who can be seen reading in the middle of the night. A: Help! Is there even one normal person at this academy?! But after enrolling, he learns the truth: The mecha instructor never grows up because she is a divine child born to kill, whose time is forever frozen on the "last day" her family sacrificed her. So every day, she gains new memories and a new "Day 1,333." The instructor guarding the restricted grounds is the most gifted mecha commander. After watching all his comrades die, he willingly traded everything so they could live another life, then watched them forget him in this one. The professor who loves to lie in a recovery pod is actually a ruthless fighter with a one-hundred-percent win rate against the insect queens. After years of battle, he was nearly at death's door. Each time, he had to sleep for years in a recovery pod until he recovered enough to unleash his ultimate power and turn the tide, despite his failing health. And the teaching assistant who has always stayed here to answer their questions has a home she can never return to. There's also the seemingly carefree, obnoxious upperclassman who laughed as he died, taking three thousand enemies down with him; the self-important, boastful Imperial Rose who really did grow into humanity's beacon and refused to yield even at the cost of her life; and the useless queen, as insignificant and timid as a mascot, who ultimately sacrificed herself and blessed the stars. They are all souls hired by a principal who has never shown her face. They slowly faded into obscurity in the river of history, their "supposed futures" buried with them. ** A student who learns the truth can't take it anymore. He rushes to the principal's office to ask how much tuition it would take for the teachers to be free to leave this inferno. But the mysterious part-time student who keeps handing out flyers turns around. "Sorry." She smiles sweetly. "They've already paid me the price of staying at the academy." No refunds. So if you want them to have a better life... Shi Ying, principal, fake final boss, mastermind behind a cast of characters and a one-woman DM, fake tragic beauty, whispers like a devil: "Then come study here." That's right. She made all of this up to lure in students! If you don't want to be put through hell, keep boosting her secret identities' stats! Rating: 5.8. Screenshot saved. Happy ending. Theme: Cherish the present.
