Lan He managed to squeeze into the entertainment circle, but wavered constantly around the 38th tier because of his lack of background.

At first, knowing that he has to work part-time as an Impermanent and live off of the Nether World, he rejected it, until he realised... Why did working part time in the Nether World help him become famous in the Over World?

Lan He: “It’s me, the darkest rogue in the Nether World, the hottest star in the Over World.” <<less

The first time Ling Jiangye laid eyes on Xia Bai, all he could see was the captivating absence of his cerebrum. He couldn’t fathom how this man had managed to survive through the horrifying games.... more>>

It wasn’t until he got injured in a game, looking like he was about to kick the bucket, that Xia Bai unexpectedly emerged. His beautiful eyes gazed sincerely at Ling Jiangye and his tiny Adam’s apple quivered as he discreetly swallowed some saliva.

“May I have your corpse?”

Ling Jiangye: “?”

Xia Bai tilted his head, and behind him, a group of corpses materialized, staring at them with eager eyes. He asked politely once more, “May I have your corpse?”

Ling Jiangye fell silent.

———

Xia Bai and his companions found themselves locked in the morgue by other players. A ghastly wind rustled the white shrouds covering the room full of corpses.

Companion: “My heart is racing.”

Xia Bai: “Mine too.”

They exchanged a knowing glance. Companion: “On the count of three!—Run!”

“Ahhhh!” The companion sprinted towards the exit, eyes wide with fear.

“Ahhhh!” Xia Bai excitedly dashed towards the corpses, his face flushed with excitement.

“……?”

———

Xia Bai was thrust into a terrifying game.

System: [Scanning completed. Player’s soul skill is related to corpses.]

Xia Bai, who frequently dug up corpses and treated them as family, shifted his eyes guiltily.

System: [Player shall be known in-game as the Corpse Collector. Your skill is ‘The Living Dead’. We hope you can become a responsible corpse owner.]

As time passed, the number of corpses trailing behind Xia Bai grew. Most were players who had perished in the game. They entrusted their skills and bodies to him, protecting him, accompanying him, unconditionally believing in him. It was then that he truly understood the original intentions and lifelong responsibility of being a corpse driver.

As his grandfather had once told him, “Miles I shall roam, to send all home.” <<less

How to successfully catch a timid and cute ghost?

Step One: Never draw the curtains of the room.

Step Two: Always stay alone in the corner.

Step Three: Accept all the gifts he brings.

Looking at the severed tail of a house lizard at his feet, Lian Yi picked it up without flinching, placing it in his room’s drawer. There were many such things — dilapidated toys, a bottle filled with some unknown viscous liquid, broken pens, a sparrow feather and so on…

Lian Yi closed the drawer and went to knock on the wardrobe door: “Are you there?”

A moment later, the door creaked open a crack from inside, revealing several slender, pale fingers, then a delicately beautiful face, shyly looking at him.

After spending some time with the human who had kept him, Nan Deng’s days had become more comfortable and nourishing.

This person, although always icy cold, neither laughing nor talking, treated the ghost Nan Deng quite well. He would protect him, indulge him, and feed him. Nan Deng liked him very much and wanted to always be with him.

Until later, Nan Deng accidentally discovered the real identity of this person was an exorcist\\*.

A ruthless, cruel, blink to slay ghosts exorcist.

——The natural enemy of ghosts.

Nan Deng trembled in fear and fled in the night.

However, he wasn’t able to get far before he was found by Lian Yi.

Lian Yi was no longer pretending. With a gloomy countenance, surrounded by ruins filled with corpses and overwhelmed with menacing energy, his voice was soft and low, urging, “Nan Deng, come here.”

***

Lately, a piece of news had been circulating among the ghosts.

Yezhang Tower had suddenly collapsed, and the Ghost King imprisoned inside had escaped.

The ghosts cheered and were ecstatic, preparing to pay respects to the supposedly ruthless, fierce Ghost King.

“The Ghost King shall lead us to conquer the three realms!”

“Decapitate those damn exorcists!”

“Brothers, charge!”

However, when the ghosts, led by the grievous energy, finally found the fabled Ghost King, they saw him trembling behind the most powerful human and Chief Exorcist, Lian Yi, saying, “They’re so scary…” <<less

At first, Xia Chenxi didn't want to play, but this game really gave too much!

Somehow, in the depths of the world, without a name, he wanted to destroy the world, but he was touched by an invisible hand and given countless care.

He strived to maintain his seemingly obedient and harmless demeanor, but behind the scenes, he went crazy trying to find that person!

Xia Chenxi never expected that one day, when he woke up, food appeared on his table, the furniture in his room was neatly arranged, and invisible hands were always caring for him.

Xia Chenxi: There must be something staring at me!

My new husband has gone to work.

But I know he actually hasn’t.

He is outside the door, looking through the peephole at me. He has been standing there all day long.

At 5:25 in the afternoon, he will open the door and pretend to have just gotten off a long day at work, saying: “A-Zhen, I worked very hard today. I missed you so much.”

I have to run away, because not only is “he” pretending to be my husband, but “he”…..isn’t a human being!

Wen Shi unexpectedly got pulled into an infinite game.

【Congratulations to the player for awakening the ‘I Am Who I Am’ skill.”

I Am Who I Am: Spend one hundred points to summon another ‘me’ from a parallel world once.】

Wen Shi replied indifferently, “Summoning someone to their death?”

Until——

On the night of the horror castle, the castle owner insisted on finding the most perfect bride, eliminating one player every night until then.

The once unremarkable story took a drastic turn when Wen Shi summoned a girl with a long sword.

The girl affectionately called Wen Shi “Little Brother” while holding the sword’s tip to the castle owner’s forehead.

On that day, the castle owner became completely terrified of marriage. In the bloody dormitory, Wen Shi accidentally summoned a sickly heartthrob.

The sickly heartthrob knocked on every door with a smile at the indescribable residents. “Would you take care of me?”

On the night of Ghost Festival, when the gates of the netherworld were opened and the night was filled with spirits, Wen Shi and the summoned zombie stared at each other.

Wen Shi: “Come, follow my lead. The night of the hundred ghosts is dangerous. We should be cautious.”

Zombie: “H-hundred households’ meals smell delicious.”

Wen Shi: “Survive!”

Angry Zombie: “H-hungry, f-food, not picky!”

The retired tianshi was pulled into the first level of a horror game. He found a thigh that was thick enough to deal with ghosts and raise the family to higher levels. Meanwhile, his responsibilities will be to care about the flowers and watch the sea in peace.

Actually, he could kill a ghost with only a single punch on its back. The audience in the live broadcast just wanted to shake his shoulders and shout: please stop pretending to be a cute newcomer!

Later, under the eyes of the audience, Shen Qingcheng impatiently took out a peach sword [1] and a yellow paper.

[Infinite Knowledge Quiz]
Question: When you return home and find a ghost resting on your bed, you rush to the door, only to hear eerie noises outside. You look out through the peephole and see another ghost preparing to open your front door. What should you do in this situation?... more>>

Among various answers like “hide in the shoe cabinet” or “hide in the kitchen,” Jie Fangcheng chooses to slowly draw his sword: first, kill the one on the bed, and then kill the one in the elevator.

***
After working diligently for 1,500 years in the underworld, Jie Fangcheng finally retired as an outstanding employee.
His kind-hearted boss asked him, “Would you like to return to the mortal world? That way, you can continue your work as a 007 agent in the underworld after a hundred and eighty years.”
Jie Fangcheng nodded in agreement.

When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in an infinite game.
The game, “Do Not Respond,” was renowned for its horror, bloodshed, and cruelty. The survival rate in its dungeons did not exceed thirty percent, and death in the game meant real-life death.
Mysterious mountain villages.
Terrifying fairy tale towns.
Apocalyptic Battle Royales…

As players contemplated how to survive in the dungeons, Jie Fangcheng diligently guided and redeemed each NPC.
Jie Fangcheng: “Hello, I’m a recently retired department manager… and now I’m back on the job!”

***
It is said that a newcomer has entered the game, and the dungeon they entered has never been reset.

***
It is also said that someone witnessed NPCs panicking and running around.
Player: How is that possible…

Jie Fangcheng stabbed the ghost leader with his sword, completing the redemption, and wiped his blade: “Who’s next?!”

#What kind of lousy game is this? ［Do Not Respond］but I’ll respond!

#Trying to steal people from the underworld? Did you ask us, the official personnel of the underworld?

Consumption Notes:
1. Not a leveling-focused story, starting at maximum level.
2. Attack and defense mechanics deviate from the traditional rules. The game allows for forced storyline alterations and NPC manipulation.
3. Features a significant number of supporting character perspectives, god-like viewpoint, but not a large ensemble cast. Main focus is on the protagonist and their romantic interest.

[Ding! Welcome players to the immersive escape game.]
[Ding! Let’s begin the luck detection. The luck will be linked to the player’s copy selection.]
As the other players’ tests were A,B,B..the detection system slowly pulsed on Bai liXin’s head.

[Ding! Congratulations player; your luck is F-, and the universe deems you unlucky!]
[Ding! Congratulations to the player. You have obtained the special title – “God of Bad Luck” (unique).]
Bai Lixin: “???”

Congratulations? Where’s the joy in that?

Soon after, the players trapped in the escape game found that there was an incredibly beautiful but tragic player in the game.

The face is unbelievable, the strength is unbeatable, but the luck is so bad that the copy he gets either has a bug or is a horror S level.

Just when everyone thought that the little beauty would certainly die, he broke through countless levels and embarked on the road to immortality.

Bai Lixin, the full-level boss, mistakenly strayed into a strange game to find his husband.

Later, he found that his old attacker had become all kinds of bosses in the copy and these big bosses were most often not human.

A water body, the true ancestor of the vampire clan, an undead knight, a dragon….

Well, he had to admit that each had its own advantages <<less

If selected as a player in a horror game, it’s either clear the game or die.... more>>

Ruan Qing had it worse. He directly became a special player who played the role of an NPC in the horror game, essentially living in the opening credits.

What’s even more unfortunate for him is that his physique is extremely peculiar, attracting the attention of sadists and psychopaths no matter where he goes.

Game 1: [Horror Livestream Room] – A gloomy and delicate victim who can’t bear the slightest grievance – Completed.

Those who owe debts always have to repay them, and once you owe a debt, you will be selected by the horror livestream.

Ruan Qing was the first to be chosen: “…”

After Ruan Qing was chosen, various ways of his death flooded the invisible barrage in the livestream room.

However, when the camera focused on Ruan Qing’s face, the barrage froze, and the previously cruel and heartless comments instantly changed.

[I don’t think he deserves to die. Isn’t it just an insult? He didn’t lose any flesh. Why make a big deal out of it?]

[I agree, I don’t think he’s a bad person.]
Initially, everyone said, [Someone so malicious should just die!]

But later, everyone flocked to the Weibo accounts of the people Ruan Qing had insulted: [You can’t even afford grapes, but you dare to eat steak. Do you still have any humanity?]

People who were inexplicably insulted: “??? Are you crazy?”

If you discover a serial killer knocking on your door, about to break in within a few minutes, what would you do? If it were any other host, the audience would probably be excited and want to see various ways they would die.

But if it were Ruan Qing…

[Don’t open the door, Ruan Qing! Please don’t open the door! Run away quickly!!!]
Ruan Qing took out his phone and dialed the number of the neighbor across the hall (another serial killer), “Hello, your food delivery has arrived. Can you please open the door and pick it up?” <<less

Huang Quan, the underworld boss, suddenly found herself reincarnated as the young lady of a declining aristocratic family in the Phoenix Empire.

She was widely regarded as a useless person in the capital city.
