After the National Destiny Game System Surrendered Itself to the State

(I've been busy the last three updates. I'll start once things calm down.)

System T008 received a work assignment from the central office, back in its hometown, but unexpectedly discovered that the tasks back home were a complete mess. It had more than one Host's fate to change. There were a whole bunch of them.

The National Destiny apocalypse game is about to descend upon its homeland, Blue Star. As the game draws near, more and more people claiming to be protagonists have appeared. To deal with these unusual individuals, the Z Country government deliberately established Special Control Bureau Eight. A refined, well-spoken young clerk named He Yan was chosen over strong opposition to serve as its executive deputy director, responsible for personally recruiting the "protagonists" with special game skills.

He Yan (T008): Helping them one by one is too inefficient. Why not deal with the National Destiny game directly? Then all the Hosts can survive, can't they?

The love-struck heroine of a post-apocalyptic stockpiling story has a jade pendant that can identify relatives by blood, but all she can think is: I've been reborn! Now that I'm back, I'll make that scum man and woman pay, then marry a new love: the Zombie King!

He Yan: You're the heroine of the novel Reborn in the Apocalypse: Crushing the Scumbags and Marrying the Zombie King. Your jade pendant is useful, and you studied geography in college, right? I'll change your game's profession sequence skill to a geographic information system and turn your pendant into a miniature globe. Go detect the dungeon data.

And so the love-struck heroine became the eye of the apocalypse game, providing the Chinese government with countless dungeon datasets.

The dumb streamer protagonist of an infinite-flow story is so useless that his only strength is ridiculous luck: Heavenly spirits, earthly spirits, dear System, please answer my prayer! Help! Help! Help! Can you awaken my profession sequence skill?!

He Yan: You're the protagonist receiving in the novel The Foolish Beauty Is Hounded by an Evil God. Your shopping site's VIP membership has expired. I'll pull some strings and use points to change your skill to a collection of absurd reaction images.

Foolish Beauty: ??? Wait, 88! Big Bro System! What the heck is an absurd reaction-image collection?!

Later, the foolish beauty became the most popular streamer in the infinite apocalypse game through sheer absurdity, and even kicked out the evil god who forced himself on him.

"I said, let there be laughter! Smile, everyone! Don't sink into the void of despair!"

"Take this sweaty soy bean!"

The reborn senior brother of the mystic sect: Ever since that junior brother joined the sect, all my fellow disciples and even my master, and everyone in the mystic sect, have started acting strangely... How can I earn their trust and make them believe that my junior brother really isn't normal?

He Yan: The original protagonist of the eldritch male-oriented novel The Immortal King Is Here. The keywords are trust... That kind of charisma golden finger is hard to find, and the other guy's a hot-blooded, invincible protagonist type. But I borrowed a palace-intrigue System from a colleague next door. It should get the same results.

Senior Brother of the Mystic Sect: Absurd! My junior brother drove me out of the sect and wants to tear me limb from limb. Why would I try to please my enemy?

He Yan: Take a look at your System.

Senior Brother of the Mystic Sect: [Quest: Increase your own strength.

Meet the requirement to receive: Imperial strategy +10]

Senior Brother of the Mystic Sect: Wait, I... I'm going to unify the mystic sect and ascend the throne? So this is what palace intrigue means? Thank you, Ancestor who ascended to immortality!

Later, the senior brother of the mystic sect ascended to become one of the top three experts on the National Destiny game's leaderboard, becoming one of the Chinese nation's most steadfast pillars.

All the protagonists were grateful to Deputy Director He Yan and thanked him repeatedly.

He Yan: Don't thank me yet. Come to the bureau.

Protagonists: ??? What bureau?

He Yan: The Special Control Bureau Eight for Countering the National Destiny Game. Come join me in using the power of the state to fight the National Destiny game.

Protagonists: ...

Holy crap! I thought you were the main System handing out golden fingers, but you're a leader handing out government jobs!

The National Destiny game has arrived in the real world, but don't be afraid. The country has your back.

Dungeon: Death Railway Radio. Then we'll mobilize the national railway dispatch center, connect it to the infinite-flow dungeon, and reroute every death train that's about to collide.

Dungeon: Black Village. Then we'll send players who are poverty-alleviation workers and volunteer teachers to fulfill the villagers' wishes and guide the restless dead into an era of peace and prosperity.

Dungeon: City Skyline. In this barren land without roads, we'll build bridges! Build bridges! Launch infrastructure projects and put the machinery of the state into full gear! Make the mountains bow! Make the rivers yield!

Dungeon: Infinite Forum Traffic War. Faced with a chaotic culture of mindless entertainment, we'll promote new ideas and spread positive energy!

Dungeon: Battle to Defend Earth. On the real battlefield, we'll make full use of our initiative and never surrender! The people of the world will unite and protect our Earth!

"Report! Profession sequence volunteer teacher, requesting to join the organization."

"Report! Profession sequence traveling court, requesting to join the organization!"

"Report! Profession sequence delivery worker, requesting to join the organization!"

"Report! Profession sequence absurd streamer, requesting to join the organization!"

Dear comrade, welcome to the Alliance Against the National Destiny Game. We will keep fighting, and we will never perish.

Also known as How Can Anyone Have a Skill That Modifies Other People's Skills?, What Dungeon Can't Be Solved with the Country at Your Back?, and Hello, Comrade.

This is a nontraditional National Destiny story. At its heart, it's an ensemble infinite-flow story about countless people uniting like a shooting star. The people and the country join forces to fight the National Destiny game.

In the broad sense, everyone fighting to win the infinite-flow survival war is a protagonist. In the narrow sense, the protagonists are He Yan and Shi Suifeng.

This is an alternate world!!! Everything is made up! Don't connect it to reality! It's not a serious, realistic story! There are lots of jokes and memes! (Disclaimer.)

Theme: Put the machinery of the state into full gear. A mere infinite-flow game? Leave it to the country!
