Bai Qiuye has been trapped for thirteen years.... more>>

Thirteen years ago, she was caught up in the Infinite Game along with the others.

There was a bug in the system that prevented her from upgrading, and she was constantly cycling through newbie missions.

After thirteen years of horrific missions, Bai Qiuye finally escaped her copy.

She found out that time flowed differently between the copy and reality, and only half a year had passed outside.

The system told her that the lowest levelled people were already level 20.

She, on the other hand, had being doing tasks day and night for thirteen years longer than the others was still a level 1 rookie.

*　　

After the infinite game was made mandatory, countless copies appeared in the city.

The ghosts of the duplicates would not come down to reality, with the exception of one duplicate - the code name "Purgatory".

The code name "Purgatory".

Prying, approaching, and entering are forbidden.

Just next to the entrance, countless strange things have gathered, turning it into a dead city.

Even the strongest of men can never enter or leave alive.

There were rumours that it would be everyone's nightmare, and possibly everyone's hope.

Until one day, a loud noise pierced the sky and the entire city began to tremble.

The darkness that poured from it raged fast.

Countless ghosts and monsters wailed and crept and fled.

People in the distance were bewildered and terrified.

No one knew that a person had come out of the "Purgatory".

Bai Qiuye looked at the empty city with a level 1 icon, as cautious as a small animal.

"Where is everyone? Is there any big brother can take me ah!"

*

Later, Bai Qiuye returned to her hometown.

It was only then that she realised that back then, in her rookie copy, Every NPC she encountered was a full level boss.

Every piece of junk she picked up was a full-level prop.

And she, long ago, was already a full-level boss. <<less

Chu Xie transmigrates into a novel as a venomous, fragile beauty who torments the protagonist to the brink of death. The system tells him he must complete the storyline to return.

Chu Xie looks at the script: Frame the male lead, torture the male lead, and ultimately be killed by the male lead.

Heh, easy.

Rolling up his sleeves, he just starts tormenting the protagonist.

System: Host!! Another host has transmigrated to the wrong world, and now you must take on two people’s storylines by yourself.

Chu Xie: …?!

System: That guy had a white lotus script, which means you must protect the male lead, accompany the male lead, and ultimately die for the male lead.

Chu Xie: (╯°Д°)╯︵ ┻━┻

2.

Chu Xie has no choice but to play two roles.

During the day, he frames the young male lead.

At night, he saves the young male lead.

Finally, when he reaches the “death (retirement)” stage, he falls off his horse at a critical moment.

Seeing the male lead angrily and nervously knock over the poison wine in his hand, Chu Xie hears the system’s deafening scream.

“Host!!! Both character settings are about to collapse; you need to think of a solution!!”

That’s why I was saying, why did you give me two completely opposite character settings at that time!!!

Chu Xie touches his forehead and goes into acting mode: “Let me die, Your Highness. Only if I die can Chu Xie die… and he can no longer harm you.” Then, he performs a personality switch in front of the crown prince, and finally stabs a small knife into his heart, smoothly ending this life.

“…Host, you’re amazing!”

3.

Later, he didn’t die.

The little emperor who had sworn to cut him to pieces and avenge himself didn’t do anything.

He administered medicine to him every day and guarded him twenty-four hours a day.

“Zhen didn’t let you die, so you’re not allowed to die!”

Chu Xie: QAQ~

Qi Jiu was killed on his eighteenth birthday. After his death, he entered the resurrection game "Rule Illustrated Handbook".... more>>

Other players struggled to survive, and corpses and bones were everywhere in the instance world.

While newcomer Qi Jiu was trying to survive, he realized that things were becoming more and more out of place......

Former Employee of the Alienation Factory: "Boss, you blew up the factory. Can I get unemployment benefits?"

Millennium Zombie in the Mass Grave: "Boss, you smashed my original coffin. Does this count as a work-related injury?"

Ghost Bride of the Midnight Wedding: "Boss, you killed the ghost groom. Can I still get my 15 days of wedding leave granted? Or should I replace it with bereavement leave?"

Qi Jiu: ?????
Why do you guys look so familiar with me?

He seemed to possess some special ability, causing the monsters in the instances to address him as "Boss."

Until one day, he encountered the god-level boss 079 and discovered that this dangerous man had the exact same face as him...

Qi Jiu panicked: Oh my. Turns out I'm pirated.

*

079 was a legendary boss in the infinite world. With the strongest combat power and near-perfect face, players called him the unbeatable god of death.

Many years ago, 079's character data was stolen. The thief disappeared back to the real world and used 079's data to clone an artificial human.

Eighteen years later, in the terrifying world of infinite cycles, 079 met a special new player ——

This person used a face that looked exactly like his to play his subordinates around and crashed all the instances.

What should he do?

It doesn't matter, he's super, super narcissistic anyway.

Chi Nan was the young man in one of the Top 10 forbidden paintings, the Crying Boy. It was said that he would bring disaster, so his memories were sealed and his soul was locked in the painting.... more>>

One day, Chi Nan entered the body of a blind young master who died accidentally. The young master was the owner of this forbidden painting. However, Chi Nan had stayed in the painting for a long time. He lost the happiness and sadness of human beings. The only emotion he could show on his face was: tears.

Chi Nan made three wishes to the gods: regain his vision, stop crying and get his memories back.

Thus, he was invited into the world of terror, the Nightmare Cycle. Break the nightmares to gain points and grant his wishes.

Ordinary players: Ahhh, it is terrible! I want to wake up!

Meanwhile, Chi Nan moved through the nightmares, grabbing small skeletons at the crane machine in the amus**ent park at midnight, building ice sculptures with corpses in a snowy country’s mass grave and dancing with a fierce ghost in a life-threatening waltz until dawn.

The dreams were really good. There were endless games, ghosts who tried to amuse him and a mysterious boss who sent him good medicine every day.

Chi Nan cried happily but when he cried, the ghosts of the world trembled.

***

The owner of the body was called You Yu and he suspected that he didn’t die accidentally. In order to understand the truth behind his death and be reborn in his body, he sold his soul to the world called the ‘Nightmare Cycle.’ He became the dream maker behind the scenes, conscientiously creating dreams of terror.

He didn’t expect that he would meet his body in the infinite nightmare he created with his own hands. The user of the body was a bigshot who loved to shed tears. This person was diligent in going through the instances to earn points and restore vision for him.

Thus, You Yu secretly added the sweetest honey to medicine and sent it to Chi Nan at midnight every day. So why did the little crybaby cry again after drinking it? <<less

Bai Lixin was caught in a strange game.... more>>

[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

The world always has those protagonist-like individuals—escaping from horror games, bearing the responsibility to save the world from monsters alongside their companions. Due to such and such reasons, they have no choice but to live in ordinary citizens’ homes, outwardly portraying themselves as typical high school students while secretly battling monsters and leveling up. ... more>>

And the ordinary citizens are ordinary but kind, always tolerant of the protagonist’s late returns, providing a gentle sanctuary.

Jiang Yujin, however, is the antithesis of that ordinary citizen. Running a struggling business, living an unkempt life, the protagonist attends school by day, fights monsters after school, and even returns home to do his laundry and cook for Jiang Yujin.

Yet even a laid-back person needs to turn things around. Despite financial deficits, Jiang Yujin briefly stands tall.

While the protagonist battles monsters, he helps someone find their lost cat. While the protagonist tirelessly protects the school from monsters, Jiang Yujin is involved in romantic escapades with the Special Investigation Unit for Strange Species (?!). While the protagonist hunts for clues behind the scenes, Jiang Yujin, with a small skirt in hand, pretends to be a rich lady in an online romance scam.

When the protagonist and allies face a major monster, Jiang Yujin… well, he stays up all night playing mahjong and ends up lying dead drunk at his doorstep.

When the protagonist finds themselves in a precarious situation…

The dead lying at the doorstep vanished.

——

Beside the massive monster’s corpse, in front of the protagonist’s group, a man with snow-white hair blowing backward, holding a blade stained with threads of blood.

Amidst the silence, Jiang Yujin, the ordinary citizen, lowers his eyes, bending slowly with the blade’s support:

“Urgh—”

Surely shouldn’t have had those two drinks after playing mahjong.

Protagonist’s group: “…”

Xu Tonggui, captain of the Special Investigation Unit, known as the living Yama in everyone’s eyes, a workaholic whose life revolves only around his job. Everyone thought he would remain a lifelong bachelor. Even the members of the Special Investigation Unit believed so.

Until one day, they saw their captain pinning down someone whose hair was so disheveled it covered their face, gritting his teeth as he asked in a low voice, “Drinking again?”

The hair covering half the face was lifted by a large palm, and the person pinned down on the car glanced sideways—

That day, the members of the Special Investigation Unit understood two things:

Never underestimate someone who seems unkempt.

The captain has a damn good eye.

Zhao Yelan was born as a criminal s*ave and was rescued by the Third Prince. After years of painstaking efforts to put him on the throne, Zhao Yelan became a sycophantic minister whom everyone detested, but he was actually given a marriage by that person to general Yan Mingting, the lone star of Tiansha.... more>>

The general caused the death of his own father, his mother, his wife, and his dog. Everyone hoped that the curse would also kill Zhao Yelan as soon as possible.

On the wedding night, Zhao Yelan, who was dressed in red, took out a dagger, his eyes sharp: “What do you want?”

Yan Mingting held his hand tightly, and borrowed his dagger to carve a large character on the head of the bed – – Early.

“You’re weak and frail, get up early every day and practice horse stance with me!”

“?”

The common people thought this marriage was truly wonderful!

They heard that this big minister was beaten every day. He had to repair the roof tiles when the house leaked and also work in the kitchen. He served his husband and was very obedient, and from then on, he didn’t dare condemn people.

Hey, the general was truly mighty!

Zhao Yelan sat lazily by the bed, playing with the dagger, and raised the ends of his eyes slightly: “Where did these rumors come from?”

“From my dog mouth.” Yan Mingting, who was in horse stance, patted his thigh. “Madam, please take the seat of honor. You don’t have to get up early tomorrow.” <<less

Wu Su was a demon born from chaos. Due to her low magical powers, she was often mistaken for an ordinary mortal. Nonetheless, she was content living as an average person, hidden in the bustling capital of the mortal world, working three jobs a day to support herself.... more>>

Later, due to an unexpected event, a night of revelry, she coincidentally ended up with a mortal husband.

Although he was just a mortal and their social statuses were vastly different, he was persistently attached to Wu Su. She didn't understand romantic love and thought that she would wait for him to tire of her before leaving.

But one day, a celestial being came from the Immortal Island and spoke of her husband's extraordinary talent for cultivation.

Wu Su thought, "Now he must be leaving, going to his world beyond the mortal realm, to cultivate his heartless path." However, unexpectedly, her husband drove the celestial being away.

Wu Su was stunned for three days.

One night, he kissed Wu Su's lips. His lips were cold, but his eyes burned with determination. Wu Su tilted her head, embraced him, and following the celestial being's instructions, severed the emotional bond with her husband.

He forgot about her, and Wu Su left, continuing to live as an ordinary little monster, working three jobs a day.

Later on, Wu Su became involved in a big demon's disturbance, wrongly accused as the instigator, and was captured by the cultivators from the Immortal Island.

Wu Su was brought before the ruler of the Immortal Island, the number one Sword Supreme in the world. She lowered her head and saw someone walking slowly towards her, wearing a simple and old sachet at his waist.

On the sachet were intertwined mandarin ducks, a gift that Wu Su had personally sewn for her husband a long time ago. <<less

For Rong Qian, every time she travelled to the past, it was only a few days apart, but for Shen Yi, if he wanted to see her, he had to wait for several years.

Later, during the long years of waiting for her, the noble, gentle, and elegant young master Shen always held his chin in private and counted the days when he would meet her with his fingers.

What would happen if you put together a thick-skinned bailiff who concealed his true self deeply with the cold and sharp beloved daughter of the Prime Minister’s manor who was currently ‘running away’ from home?

Originally, one was merely going along with an arranged bet and picked a country which one was a bit interested in – Liao Yue. One had planned to go on a scenic tour while looking for a rare treasure on the side for the “One Year Agreement”.

Unexpectedly, one had just arrived at the border of Liao Yue when one encountered a mu*der case and in passing, also came across an interesting person who looked roguish, but was actually an incisive bailiff.

What surprised her even more was that this bailiff’s history was so secretive and bizarre, and unexpectedly still had a connection to her pliable sword “Cang Feng” which had accompanied her for so many years.

Ming Huashang, whose biggest dream was to live a long life before dying, was terrified. Seeing that there was only one year left before the return of the real daughter, Ming Huashang tucked her tail between her legs, got her act together, and tried her best to please her elder twin brother in name, Ming Huazhang.

But her aloof and excellent elder brother couldn’t be fooled. Ming Huashang failed to please her big thigh, so she gave up decisively and set her sights on her real elder brother – the top scholar Su Xingzhi, the future prime minister from humble beginnings.

After the third time Ming Huashang sneaked out to meet the newly minted top scholar, Ming Huazhang appeared in her room late at night and said to her in disappointment, “Younger sister, why is your patience still so poor.” <<less

I got trapped in a horror game where a maniacal mu*derer is on the loose. The only way to escape the game is to collect evidence about the mu*derer and identify them.

The setting of this horror game is the luxurious mansion of Duke Albert.

And I have possessed Duke Albert’s second child, Leah Albert, struggling to find the mu*derer.

But the three family members, who are suspects, are acting strangely.

I was just following the ‘system’ to clear the horror game by completing missions…

‘What do you want me to teach you?’

‘Just like you used to teach me letters when I was young, one by one…’

‘Lionel.’

‘Please control my d*ck, sister.’

Suddenly, my younger brother Lionel rubs his genit@ls against me, choking back tears.

As if the younger brother wasn’t enough trouble, Leah’s twin brother Lycan goes even further.

‘I know you slept with father, Leah.’

‘It’s a misunderstanding! I can explain everything.’

‘With you, I was finally perfect. But now that you’ve abandoned me, I am just a defective product that should be discarded.’

He’s a headache who would easily commit su*cide if he doesn’t get my attention, causing me to game out.

‘I should check how my daughter has been doing in my absence.’
