The Path of Mortals in AI Tower Defense

A game otaku who traveled from the modern world unexpectedly became the weakest NPC in the holographic tower defense game. He was killed in the first battle with just one attack. However, because the system determined that he was a hidden BOSS, he could still be resurrected and upgraded even if he died. After his rebirth, his initial attributes were weak, but he continued to accumulate experience through daily activities such as picking up branches, hunting rabbits, and wearing out worn shoes, and enjoyed the simple happiness of "living". At level 20, he accidentally discovered that he had the passive skill of leading NPCs, which could cause NPCs to launch raids, causing shock and doubt among the player community. Facing the loyal followers of NPCs and the comments and ridicules of players, the male protagonist experienced cognitive challenges between the joy of survival and the eyes of the outside world. In the end, with his understanding of the true meaning of "living" and his growing courage, he walked towards the hidden BOSS, highlighting the theme that "ordinary efforts can change fate against the odds".
