As a veteran of open-world games, Jiang Jue had never met a boss he couldn't beat.
But his record of slaughtering everything in other games came at a price: Simulated Killer taught him a lesson, with its NPC godfather killing him a hundred times in a row.
One day, a post appeared at the top of the game's forum.
The godfather who's been tormenting every player has finally been taken down! The player who soloed the godfather, sin, gained countless fans.
Jiang Jue: There's actually someone who beat this trash game? Where'd they find this shill?
As it turned out, whether the other person was a shill didn't matter. What mattered was that when Jiang Jue opened his eyes, he'd transmigrated into the game world.
And he'd become a con man with enemies everywhere.

Most of the players were pulled into the game. Jiang Jue's childhood friend found two of them, and the three teamed up.
One handsome guy, one beautiful woman.
They were easy on the eyes, but Jiang Jue would rather gouge his own eyes out.
The handsome guy was like an NPC, and the beautiful woman was his ex-girlfriend, the one who'd given him the title of "turtle."
His childhood friend urged him, "Why not give it another try?"
Then Jiang Jue tried getting together with the NPC-like handsome guy.
His childhood friend: "Huh? Dude, I never knew you were into men!"
After entering the game world, the players searched everywhere for sin. At last they found the big shot, and were about to burst into tears and ingratiate themselves with him when they saw him pinning a pretty boy against a wall.
"Your current boyfriend or your ex-girlfriend. Which one do you choose?"
Everyone: "..." Great question. What a toxic serving of PDA.
The pretty boy, Jiang Jue, thought for a moment, changed the subject, and asked the question he'd been wondering about deep down: "Then answer me first. Are you really a shill, or are you actually cheating?"
P.S. The shou has had an ex-girlfriend, but they never even held hands. They just talked more often than he did with other girls! He still has his first kiss and everything (sob).
A fictional new world.
