A Zen Goddess Among Ghosts in a Horror Game

In 2085, a strange game descended upon the world. Everyone, from the elderly to three-year-old children, had to complete regular missions in the game to survive.

In less than three years, order collapsed and the world descended into chaos. To preserve humanity, the United Government secretly launched the [God of Humanity Project], livestreaming the creation of a god to bring a glimmer of hope to everyone struggling in the darkness.

The criteria for candidates in this round:

1. Good looks

2. Great strength

3. A distinctive enough persona

4. Never falling in love with anyone

Jiang Ning, a red-clad vengeful ghost, thought, This is perfect for me! She joined the selection contest without hesitation.

Zhou Siyu sat expressionlessly in the bright red bridal sedan, lifted the red veil from his head, and thought he'd like to see which blind ghost was trying to marry him.

The swaying sedan came to a stop. A hand as fair as white jade slowly lifted the blood-red curtain. A string of small-leaf rosewood prayer beads dangled from its wrist.

Zhou Siyu froze for a moment. Before he could lower his brows and strike, a voice as cool as moonlight over the mountains rang softly from outside.

"If you follow me, will you ever feel wronged?"

Zhou Siyu: ?

In the corridor, Yun Weiyi smiled and adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses, nodding to the student ghosts sneaking glances at him. He felt he was better suited to be a teacher in this campus instance than a student.

As he passed the stairwell, a tremendous force shoved him against the wall.

Yun Weiyi frowned at the person who had slammed into him. It was the student council president, the legendary student in this instance. Word was that she came from a powerful family, was cool and otherworldly, and devoted herself to Buddhism. No one dared mess with her.

"Why?" The girl's voice was cool and hoarse.

For some reason, this girl seemed to want to grab his crotch. Yun Weiyi casually blocked her while trying to smile. "What do you mean?"

"Why did you take those fifty million? Is the heir to the Jiang family worth no more than that paltry fifty million?" She calmly moved closer, a dark glint flashing in her eyes. "Run again, and I'll smash your bones, strip out your marrow, and eat you piece by piece."

Yun Weiyi: "..."

Later, all the players in the strange game knew that a Buddhist maiden had arrived. She killed anyone who stood in her way, human or ghost, and recited "Amitabha" after every fight. She was great in every way except that she liked to play a role in the instances. She made her teammates feel especially safe.

A crowd of victims: "..."

Yeah, she did make them feel pretty safe, as long as they weren't the "female lead."

[Reading Guide]:

1. The evil-ghost heroine will disguise herself as the perfect celebrity.

2. Many supporting characters will have one-sided crushes on her, but the heroine stays single.

3. More details will be added if I think of any.

Theme: Even in the most desperate circumstances, stay positive and strive forward.
