In the rule-bound world of the Divine Abyss, paranormal horrors run rampant and danger lurks everywhere.
Tens of thousands of people struggle to survive here.
Among them is one man who entered the Divine Abyss from the lowest depths of a chaotic slum. While everyone else risked their lives to level up, he spent four whole years in E-rank, the so-called beginner village.
Qi Lan could have scraped by in E-rank until the end of time, if not for a bloody massacre that shocked every survivor and forced him into a death countdown of less than fourteen days.
If he doesn't reach A-rank within fourteen days, he can't accept the mission [Nine Kills], and he'll die.
If he accepts it but can't kill the target [Day], or another mission-taker gets there first, he'll die too.
As he grinds points and levels up in the rule-bound world, he must also fend off other mission-takers hunting him for the bounty on his head, as well as the Black Soul in his mind, which is constantly trying to devour him.
Worse still, the Black Soul seems to be the target of [Nine Kills]: the legendary number one on the points leaderboard, the long-missing First Judge, [Day].
One is an easygoing orphan from the lowest rung of society, focused solely on staying alive.
The other is an elegant, well-bred scion of a fallen noble house, burdened with a blood feud.
Their ideals are worlds apart, and their positions are clearly opposed.
They scheme against each other, turn their blades on one another, and sincerely wish the other would hurry up and die. Yet, for the sake of their own goals, they have no choice but to save each other again and again when the other is on the brink of death.
Much later, when the sky above the Divine Abyss no longer lights up and night shrouds humanity's future,
survivors calmly give up their chance to live and head toward their fated deaths,
while the players behind the scenes willingly enter the game, becoming pawns in someone else's hands.
Only then does Qi Lan understand.
Their fates were already sealed from the moment they first met.
Bound together without end, sharing life and death.

Theme: Walking the line between light and darkness, courage is the only compass
Hahaha, this group has obviously become more lively after arriving at the union. Everyone seems to have a lot of stories, [Astronomy hurts me a lot] Classmate, don't you think so? Lan and Zhou, in terms of love and hatred between two people who have no talent and unlimited talent strength, but in this case, where will Brother Lan's later improvement go? It feels like his physical strength has indeed reached the upper limit.
The world of Evil City has finally come to an end~ I will probably take a break for a week or two to revise my writing (there is a chance of a fake corpse update in the meantime), I love you all ❤️❤️❤️
I feel that the leaders of each force should have turned into a form similar to that of the Clockmaker. The scalpel's form depends on a large amount of living blood... But it seems not so obvious on the Clockmaker's side. Could it be that the scalpel is more infected 🍉
Brother Lan: If you can't kill me, then there is a second level [Sunglasses] Day:... A lunatic 💔
Hahaha, if you put in someone else's perspective, it's an old man in a suit (if I remember correctly, it's the character's face, right) riding a motorcycle and racing in the city. The inner OS of the infected person: Provocation, naked provocation!
I've hit the mark – I love to think wildly [bushi] and I really love conspiracy theories (bushi). Just kidding, don't do this 🐶 In fact, I feel that Sister Fan should have some contact with the Taboo Referee. As for whether it is day or not, I don't know. And the dawn of day may not be in contact with Fanji's Red Mansion. In my eyes, there are only two intelligence networks [Caidog]
It's time to enter the next dungeon [continue] I feel like the name of the new dungeon is a bit abstract, not like a place name [question mark]
I climbed back to the second floor of the Abyss of Calamity and took a look. So it was at this time that the Forbidden Inquisition discovered that Qi Lan was not simple?
It's almost forcing our Brother Lan from a passive type to a proactive type.
Happy National Day🎉 Brother Lan's credibility is quite high. When he promised, I felt that his personality was very charming. I really liked him🐰Although I don't mind a few deaths, I also hope that everyone will survive until the end [Caigou]
