After waking up, Bai Yuxing found himself inside the mobile game Tower at the End, which he had quit three years ago.
Bad news: He had become an ordinary person with no mental strength.
Good news: His gacha system had come with him.
[Obtained: Basic Mental Guidance]
Relying on the only Guide skill he had drawn, Bai Yuxing successfully passed himself off as a Guide and got into Central Academy.
He thought he just had to keep his head down until graduation, then lie flat, until the internship assignments were announced.
Black Tower Prison.
It held the most dangerous Sentinels in the entire Federation.
Their mental seas were collapsing, their contamination was out of control, and they were extremely aggressive.
Bai Yuxing looked at the list and suddenly felt it seemed familiar.
Wait.
Weren't these names...
all characters he'd maxed out in both potential and affection in the game?
[“Silver Tyrant”: Mental sea collapsed. Confined to Black Tower.]
[“Zero Seat Executor”: Threat level SSS. Confined to Black Tower.]
[“Blade of the Tribunal”: Killed thirteen Guides in a row. Confined to Black Tower.]
[“Wasteland Hunter King”: Long-term loss of control. Confined to Black Tower.]
Bai Yuxing: “Why did they all end up in there?”
The System hesitated: [Because you quit the game.]
Bai Yuxing: “...”
--
Everyone in the Federation knew that Black Tower Prison was full of mad dogs.
They were dangerous, violent, and out of control. No Guide dared go near them.
And Bai Yuxing, an intern ranked at the bottom of his academy class, was assigned to Black Tower.
Everyone thought he wouldn't last three days.
The System promptly issued a warning:
[High-risk character's current emotional state: hatred.]
[Hate level: 100%.]
[Estimated probability of death after the player's identity is exposed: 99.9%.]
On the first day, the most dangerous prisoner stared at him all night.
On the second day, an SSS-class Sentinel voluntarily accepted mental guidance.
By day N, the entire cell block was fighting for his attention.
Later, everyone in Black Tower Prison knew.
That unremarkable intern Guide was the cause of all the madmen's troubles.
And their only cure.

[Short Scene]
Their first meeting.
The Sentinel, bound from head to toe in black restraints, leaned back in the interrogation chair, not even bothering to spare him a glance.
“Get out.”
“Don't let me smell you.”
“Disgusting.”
Bai Yuxing let out a breath of relief.
Thank goodness, he hadn't recognized him.
The next second, the monitor suddenly blared an alarm.
The Sentinel broke free of the Black Tower's specially designed restraints, and his mental power instantly enveloped the entire interrogation room.
Everyone thought he was about to lose control.
But he only walked toward Bai Yuxing, one step at a time.
“Why...”
“Is your mental frequency the same as his?”
“Tell me.”
“What is your relationship with my Guide...?”
Bai Yuxing: “...”
This is bad.
I can't keep my secret identity hidden.
