Game Maker

Have you ever wondered who wrote those rules in horror stories: don't look back, don't look in the mirror at midnight, and never eat the seventh course? Lu Ci knew. Because he is the one who wrote the rules. His occupation is called "game maker". There is an abnormal space in the world called the "Fierce Domain" that will swallow all living creatures without warning. Lu Ci's job is to enter the evil domain before it gets out of control, survey the threats, and then personally design a set of rules, which doors can be opened, what words cannot be said, and what things must not be touched. After the design is completed, a group of "trialers" will be sent in. Those who survive gain the ability to fight against the evil realm. People who die are just dead. And Lu Ci had to watch all this happen in the dark. Can't intervene, can't prompt, can't reach out. He could only watch the traps he designed himself kill people one after another. He could have made the rules simpler. But the survival rate required by the organization is 30%. If ten people enter, three will survive. One more would be considered a dereliction of duty. Lu Ci couldn't bear it. Because he has selfish motives. Three years ago, his sister disappeared in the Fierce Domain, and he joined the organization just to find her. As long as he continues to take on higher-level tasks, he will have access to deeper files and get closer to the truth. Until one day, a trialist named Shen Yebai broke into the game he designed. This man didn't follow any clear rules. He bypassed all the superficial paths and accurately stepped on the hidden line buried deepest in Lu Ci's mind. The hidden thread that only the creator of the game knew about.
