Surrounded by Brooding Ghostly Tops [Full Dive]

New Novel: Nonzero Test [Game]

Chao Tu is broke and has just been stabbed in the back at work. After he voluntarily laid off his former company, he stepped into the world of full-dive gaming as a complete newcomer.

He thought his gaming career would be no different from that of any other pro player.

But then...

Dungeon Boss 1 (watching him intently on a snowy night): You belong to me. You will be mine.

Dungeon Boss 2 (tilting his head in front of the human teammates who betrayed him): Kill them. Will that make you feel a little better?

Dungeon Boss 3 (taking his hand and whispering in his ear): Good boy, this is how you hold a gun~

Dungeon Boss N (cradling his heart, obsessed): I love you. I really do love you.

Chao Tu, surrounded by a horde of increasingly creepy male ghost bosses: ...Hello, 110? There are so many perverts in this game. Are you seriously not going to do anything about them?!

[MOD transmigration-into-a-book System loading... Loading complete.]

[MOD is deploying players in order, one by one.]

[MOD] to the players: Win over that protagonist, and I'll grant you one wish.

The players (satisfied): Sounds good.

But once they really transmigrated into the book, they discovered that their opponent was not only the protagonist, Chao Tu, who was impervious to persuasion, but also...

D.S. (casually twirling the knife handle, smirking): You dared lay a hand on my wife... Then you can all die.

A few notes before reading:

[Dear reviewers, please understand that this is a virtual game novel. Please don't lock my blurb!]

1. CP: Chao Tu x the increasingly creepy game D.S. The game is the gong. Yes, the game is the gong. All the dungeon bosses are him, but they have different personalities and are all equally creepy toward the protagonist. The players trying to win him over are just passing through.

2. There are two games in this novel: the MOD transmigration-into-a-book game and the original D.S. game. The D.S. game is the gong; the MOD transmigration-into-a-book game is foreshadowing. A slow-paced story. The D.S. game isn't a traditional game, and its gameplay is described. It follows a dungeon-upgrading progression and can be read as an infinite-flow novel. You can still read it even if you don't play games. This is my first time writing this kind of story, and I wanted to try something new.

3. The protagonist makes the occasional sarcastic remark. He isn't aloof, and his personality contrasts with his appearance.

Blurb for Nonzero Test [Game]

"Everything you feel is a game."

"The game is reality."

--From Nonzero Test

Wen Yixing (after thinking it over): "So I'm not a zero?"

Nonzero (after a moment of silence, affirming): "No, you are. You very much are."

Wen Yixing (sneering): "...Then tell me what you are [ ... ]."

This world is one enormous void.

So we fill it with zeroes and ones.

Zero and one... What's the difference between the world and a game?

The first page of Declaration for Another Day: [So I want you to admit that there are gods in this world.]

[And you are a god.]

[Gods are born above the highest mountains, at the pinnacle of humanity.]

A few notes before reading:

1. This novel is also known as #Level-One God# and #Why Did All the Skills I Chose Go Wrong?#

2. CP: the thoroughly awful Wen Yixing as the shou x Nonzero as the gong. Nonzero is that Nonzero. Yes, Nonzero is the game, the game is the gong, the System is the gong, and [ ... ] (can't be revealed yet) is also the gong. It's one person! One person! One-on-one! (screaming)!

3. The game is the main focus, but you can still read it even if you don't play games. It leans toward exploration, puzzle-solving, and adventure, with descriptions of gameplay that I personally think are really interesting. Come play!
