Lin Qichi was originally just an ordinary NPC protecting the newbie village, albeit in the world of Infinite Flow.... more>>

But he was really ordinary! Although he witnessed the rise of many Infinite Flow big shots and fortunately befriended a few.

But he was truly ordinary! Even though he was unexpectedly extremely handsome, exuding an air of carefree, reclusive immortality that led countless Infinite Flow players to mistakenly assume he had some special identity. Consequently, he still managed to live quite comfortably in the perilous world of Infinite Flow.

However, this (mistakenly perceived) ordinary Lin Qichi was suddenly chosen by a half-finished Quick Transmigration system and forced to leave the Infinite Flow world where he could have roamed freely (mist), living a life of ease and contentment.

For the sake of a secret he couldn’t reveal, Lin Qichi was compelled to agree to the system’s demands and set out to win over villains with tender hearts.

Lin Qichi was prepared for either success or death.

As it turned out… Lin Qichi: “Villains? No big deal! Except for acting like kids and making a fuss, they’re not much different from the close friends I had in Infinite Flow.”

System: “Did I just hear something terrifying?”

Some Gong: “What? Did you get water in your brain? Which side? Quick, tilt your head and pour it out, or it’ll rust.” <<less

The Bubble Universe Theory became reality and the Earth collided with other earths, forming erosion areas.

While grocery shopping, Ji Qizhen and a few other customers were trapped in the erosion area formed over the department store. They could only pick up some mops and rolling pins for defense while exploring the surroundings. They even threw pork outside the door to check and watched it being shredded to pieces.

Once they headed to the second floor, they witnessed a bloodied ghost, the BOSS of the store, chasing after a man, screaming, “Thief! You eat the pork and not pay!”

The group of people with their hands full of unpaid items, who had also destroyed an unpaid pork, fell silent.

Then Ji Qizhen raised his money like a salvation. “We’re paying!”

(Original summary)

On February 22, 2020, our Earth collided with a planet in the parallel universe, and the Earth was in danger of being eroded.

When Jing Qizhen mistakenly entered the erosion area for the first time, he heard a strange voice in his mind, “Warriors from Earth, let’s fight desperately to save the planet!”

Jing Qizhen: …who are you?

The Earth: I am the planet! Huh??? Someone can hear me!!!

From then on, Jing Qizhen and his friends traveled all the way to the mysterious mountain village, dangerous amusement park, horror movie theater, blizzard castle and all kinds of dungeons.

Until one day…

Jing Qizhen: My friend turns out to be the big boss. What should I do?! QAQ

The friend who is waiting impatiently online: Actually, I don’t want to invade your planet, I just want to watch the drama and eat melons. 0.0

Whoops. Turns out, you’re a player too, and this is a hardcore horror world where everyone usually dies. And you’ve already pissed off the other players. Your options now are: A. Go nuts; B. Go nuts; C. Go nuts.

Wen Renxi, who just went from hard mode to hell mode: “Screw it, I’m going nuts.”

In 20XX, Earth got pulled into the Nightmare Realm. Then, one day, the high-level dungeon “Snow Wedding Gown” glitched and pulled in a level 1 noob who didn’t even know who she was.

By the end of the day, the Infinite Forum was blowing up with a hot post:

“What’s it like to get carried by a level 1 noob?”

Cue the laughing. Everyone’s saying the poster’s gotta be a level 2 at best.

Then, a few high-level pros chime in, saying they got carried too—through “Snow Wedding Gown,” no less, the dungeon famous for wiping teams.

Netizens: “Hit 1 if you lost a bet, 2 if you’re being held hostage.”

Later on, more people run into this newbie named Wen Renxi, and she’s just slicing through dungeons like butter. That’s when everyone figures out:

The real noob? It was us all along. <<less

Bai Yao became the vicious supporting female character in various horror worlds, a character who possessed beauty but was filled with the stench of money. After the system threw the word “conquer” at her, it lost contact due to poor signal.

Four days ago, the evil god left the 《Unlimited Ghost Game》 and became the first player to ever leave the system.... more>>

Four days later, Su Li woke up in the real world, from an evil god feared by all ghosts, to a miserable social animal with a crippling debt.

Su Li, whose goal in life is to be a rich salted fish who can eat and sleep like a fool: “…”

*

Su Li began working at the Supernatural Section of the Bureau of Investigations as a delicate, weak, and timid intern.

A colleague of the Supernatural Team: “Damn, you’re so weak. Rest assured, the task of catching ghosts will never fall on you.”

Su Li: “Thank you; I’ll be relying on you then.”

Su Li quickly slipped away from the scene, but when he turned around, all of his teammates were eaten up by ghosts.

The malicious spirit proudly said, “Don’t worry, you’re next.”

Su Li: “…”

There was no choice; he could only roll up his sleeves and fight back.

While fighting, Su Li noticed something wrong. Why were all these powerful ghosts his old acquaintances from the game?

Those ghostly acquaintances were angry. “That dogsh*t system! Is this what you mean by an ordinary person deprived of power? Look at him beating me up, my head has been ripped off wuwuwu!!!”

Su Li slowly tidied up his sleeves and raised the corners of his lips, revealing an extremely gentle smile: “Going back on one’s words, system, you’re really… looking for death.”

**

He Duo, the new head of the He family.

It’s said that this person was neither a human nor a ghost. Not only does he have a venomous personality, but he also acts extremely crazily. In front of him, people would respectfully refer to him as He-shao, but behind his back, they would refer to him as the mad dog.

Then one day, he found out that he had a fiancé named Su Li.

He Duo’s lips raised slightly as he smiled as lightly ordered his subordinates: “Then just peel off his skin.”

Afterwards——

Su Li sat on a soft sofa, stepping on He Duo’s knee as he spoke, “If you want to stay by my side, that’s fine. But, are you obedient enough?”

“I love you.”

“I love you too, little puppy.” <<less

Three years ago, “Stairway to Heaven” suddenly emerged, and batch after batch of people were drawn into the escape game and forced into a live broadcast, enduring the arbitrary manipulation and heinous criticism of the audience.... more>>

Yu Qing had soft long hair, a simple appearance, and big watery eyes. Facing the old woman ghost who grinned in front of him and asked him to enter the house, he nodded obediently: “Okay.”

Audience: […brainless, the host will die in the next second. He’s going to be poisoned to death by the old woman ghost.]

The number of people in the live broadcast dropped sharply, and then, poof –

Yu Qing pressed the old woman ghost’s head into the dinner plate and asked with a smile: “Do you want to watch a ghost mukbang?”

Audience: [???]

Yu Qing: “I work for everyone’s enjoyment and broadcast something different.”

Audience: [!!!]

Since then, things became strange.

System: [Host Yu Qing killed the NPC, violated the rules, and the health value returned to zero!]

The audience rewarded him life points crazily.

[My wife is right, there must be something wrong with the rules!]
[The system want him to die on the third broadcast, but I want him to live forever!]
Other hosts: “But our audience is not like this!!!”

Then, Yu Qing effortlessly survived. The points increased, and the clearance operations became easier for him, but…

What did the audience want to see?

Audience: [Baby, hug the BOSS and kiss him until he is stunned!] <<less

"Class A copy of Split Class has been opened, you will fall into the nightmare in ten seconds."... more>>

A claustrophobic school building, a bloody dusk, a thick fog, evil spirits hiding in every corner. The peerless man leaned against the wall coughing, the only one out of place among the well-prepared players, he didn't even have a dagger.

Just by looking at his pale, sickly appearance, he may not survive until dark. The innocent players wondered why the C-grade copy, which had a 50% clearance rate, suddenly became an A-grade with a clearance rate of less than 10%. Only Xie Qing hooked the corners of his mouth in the darkness.

Any copy that Xie Qing participated in, the plot always became twisted and bizarre, and the danger factor spiked.

In this regard, Xie Qing was ecstatic. He liked the excitement, the feeling of wandering on the edge of life and death. The more dangerous it was, the happier he was, and the trembling of the blade against his skin made him not want to stop. Players said that it was unfortunate and lucky to meet Xie Qing. As long as there was Xie Qing, even low-level copies could turn into death copies with a clearance rate close to zero, but as long as there was Xie Qing, death copies could also take players through with a full crew. The copy grading was invalidated in his case. There was only one thing particularly strange, no matter what the plot mutated into, they would always come as expected.

The copy monsters, NPCs, and players vied to send him through unhindered, greatly interfering with Xie Qing's game experience.

Xie Qing: "No way, I can only make the battle field a little more bloody!"

Today, he invited the evil spirit to visit the cemetery, and this next day, he invited the black hand behind the scenes to drink coffee. Let's fight. It would be easier for him to fight. The man affected his speed of customs clearance. Xie Qing thought he wouldn't play until one day, the game manager of Nightmare Game came to him. Cold fog covered him and his eyes were frozen like the dark night. "Everyone you have teased is me." <<less

Illustrator Ding Yi inexplicably found herself thrust into the New World on her birthday, all because of a wish she couldn't even recall making. Thus began her desperate struggle for survival across one perilous death instance after another.

As a newcomer, she didn't hesitate to backstab NPCs and even beat down other Wishers.

Xiao Ming: "Sis, what line of work are you in?"

Ding Yi: "I'm an illustrator."

Everyone was utterly shocked. When did someone in the arts become this formidable?

Ding Yi fiercely declared that whether it was an NPC or a Wisher, crossing her would be like kicking a steel plate—until she unexpectedly collided with an even more formidable obstacle: a man utterly devoid of sanity, yet brimming with a captivating charm and an undercurrent of pure chaos.

Qin Yuan: "Just how unhinged do I need to be to share a room with you?"

Bai Jin, a seemingly unremarkable name belonging to a quintessential otaku, harbored a deep fascination for infinite flow novels. Among the myriad authors in this genre, one particular writer stood out, captivating Bai Jin's attention to the point of obsession. He voraciously consumed the author's entire published works, a collection of four grand tales within the infinite flow universe.... more>>

The first of these literary adventures chronicled the journey of an ordinary player steadily climbing the ranks to ultimately claim the coveted number one position. Bai Jin found himself thoroughly enjoying this narrative of growth and triumph, his enthusiasm succinctly captured in the words.

"Like it, continue."

The second book offered a different flavor, immersing the reader in the exhilarating experience of a max-level player effortlessly crushing dungeon bosses. This power fantasy resonated deeply with Bai Jin, eliciting a simple yet emphatic declaration of adoration.

"Love it to death"

The third installment ventured into darker territory, depicting a max-level boss unleashing destruction upon the world and mercilessly crushing weaker beings. While acknowledging the increased gore, Bai Jin's fascination remained undiminished, his response being.

"A bit bloody, still love it to death."

Finally, the fourth book presented a stark contrast, focusing on the trials of a seemingly delicate and pitiful character, a master of 'green tea' tactics, navigating their way to victory. This unusual premise piqued Bai Jin's curiosity, prompting him to think.

"How strange, let's take a look."

However, before he could even finish the latest update of this intriguing new book, reality took an unexpected turn. Bai Jin awoke one morning to the unsettling realization that he had somehow been thrust into the very fictional worlds he so avidly read, destined to play the role of a minor character within the author's infinite flow narratives.

A disembodied voice, identifying itself as the System, delivered a stark and unambiguous directive.

"Your mission is to play a minor role. When you are told to die, you die; when you are told to live, you live. You need to go to four filming locations."

And just like that, Bai Jin's life transformed into an endless cycle of fleeting appearances and predetermined fates.

In one moment, he might find himself as a malevolent and dim-witted villain, his purpose solely to be trampled underfoot by the protagonist.

In the next, he could be a beautiful madam, tragically ensnared by the allure of a monster.

One instant he was a formidable dungeon boss, designed to torment protagonist number three.

And the next he was an irritating and troublesome teammate for protagonist number four.

As Bai Jin was repeatedly subjected to the cycle of life and death, death and life, a sense of numbness began to creep in. Yet, amidst this bewildering existence, strange occurrences began to unfold. He witnessed protagonist number one inexplicably engaging in combat with protagonist number two.

He found himself inexplicably nestled in the embrace of protagonist number four. And to his utter astonishment, protagonist number three, a figure of immense power, was shedding tears.

It was at that moment that the perplexing truth finally struck Bai Jin: the four separate worlds from the novels had somehow merged, their borders indistinct and their stories interwoven. This sudden understanding sent a wave of unease through him as he clearly remembered his own past antics within these now-combined realities – a series of rather unconventional and often chaotic shenanigans.

With a dawning sense of impending doom, Bai Jin could only utter a resigned sigh: "Oh no, it's over." <<less

To cure his legs, Zhuo Yu willingly participated in a mu*derous RPG with hidden dangers.... more>>

However, unlike other ordinary players, who were being chased and hacked down by the BOSS, there seems to be something wrong with his settings.

In the American plasma film, he is the lover that the masked butcher wants to protect.

In the Japanese supernatural film, he is a lovesick who wants to resurrect his ghostly boyfriend.

In the Chinese Tantric film, he is the black-handed arch-priest who is in love with an evil god.

Zhuo Yu found that no matter what role he was assigned to, he seemed to be on the same team as the copy’s BOSS ……

Players: Is there a possibility that we have a traitor among us?

Zhuo Yu: It’s bad, I’ve become a villain

Yes, she liked it here.

In September of the seventh year of the Great Li era, the crown princess Li Yundan disappeared from the Eastern Palace. At that time, she was only three hours away from reaching the pinnacle of power.

The voice of divine inspiration told her: "Do you want to be an emperor imprisoned by the Dragon Throne, or do you want to be the master who steps over the Dragon Throne?"

One moment, Yu Zhi was half-heartedly listening to his friend rant about the protagonist of a certain novel—a bloodthirsty lunatic psychopath. The next moment, the novel’s plot became reality.... more>>

The apocalypse arrived, bringing global pollution and mutations.

Some were polluted, growing mouths on the tops of their heads; others awakened, gaining superpowers.

Yu Zhi: What the heck?!

Bad news: He had never paid serious attention to his friend’s rants about the plot.

Good news: He awakened a superpower—a bizarre one called "JJ Literature City."

[Ability One: You Are Just a Random Bystander.]

[Note: You used to be an ordinary, insignificant extra in the novel. But from now on, you will...]

Yu Zhi took a deep breath, eagerly turned to the next page, and then froze as his smile vanished:

[...be without pee, poop, or fart.]

???

This counts as a superpower?

Soon, Yu Zhi had the misfortune of running into the protagonist, Fu Suxi, who was drenched in blood and looked like a vengeful ghost straight out of hell.

The good news: Yu Zhi had just acquired a second superpower.

The bad news: His new power seemed equally unreliable.

[Ability Two: Mouth, mouth.]

[Effect: Ten steps, one smooch. A thousand miles, no survivors.]

The moment Fu Suxi approached Yu Zhi, the killing intent in his heart inexplicably dissipated entirely.

He pressed his blade against Yu Zhi’s throat and asked with interest, “What did you do to me?”

Yu Zhi: “...”

If I said I “mouth” you, would you believe me?

Teammates received lunch boxes one after another. Tang Ning fell into a pool of blood and fell into a dream of death. A handsome man gracefully appeared from the darkness, picked up his sleeping lover, and opened the dungeon for him——

There is a prince who always exists in the copy and is the only life-saving driftwood Tang Ning can hold on to.

Tang Ning, who had drawn a card with the inability to speak setting, once tremblingly wrote “Don’t go” on the opponent’s palm. His prince kissed the back of his hand and smiled affectionately and tenderly at him.

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 Changye and his tiny Adam’s apple quivered as he discreetly swallowed some saliva.

“May I have your corpse?”

Ling Changye: “?”

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 Changye 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.”

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

Faced with his younger sister’s obsessive recommendations for “infinite flow” novels, Ji Mo’an expressed disbelief, firmly holding high the banner of materialism.... more>>

However, one day as he prepared for work, he looked up to see a small black snake coiled around his car’s emblem, flicking its tongue at him.

Cute. I want to keep it.

Unfortunately, the terrarium was bought in the morning, and the snake was gone by the afternoon.

Forced to pull an all-nighter searching for the snake, Ji Mo’an was surprised the next day when the little black snake emerged from his water cup as if nothing had happened, even holding a red goji berry in its mouth.

On the third day, Ji Mo’an felt a snake tail inside a confidential file folder.

On the fourth day, Ji Mo’an entered his office to find a long black snake sprawled on the carpet, chewing on his money tree.

“Let go of my money tree!” He quickly slapped a talisman, obtained from a roadside Daoist hawker, onto the black snake’s head.

“Hungry. Give me food.” Through the yellow paper with red ink, Ji Mo’an heard a deep voice emanating from the snake.

“That charlatan priest lied to me.” Without hesitation, Ji Mo’an grabbed a copy of ‘Dialectical Materialism’ from his desk and struck the snake’s vital point (the ‘seven-inch spot’) with swift, precise force.

…

By the seventh day, Ji Mo’an entered the elevator under the watchful eyes of countless employees, with a tiny black snake perched on his head.

Despite his frantic blinking, silently pleading for help, his secretary offered dryly.

“Your pet is looking rather fetching today.”

“…Thank you.” The hint failed. You don’t get it. Ji Mo’an replied just as dryly, “Its name is Bai Erhua.”

“My name is Xuan Bai.”

The moment they entered the office, his wrist was instantly coiled tightly by a black snake tail, and a cool, serpentine tongue lightly touched his neck.

The partially transformed snake-man tilted his head, the black scales on his cheek appearing dangerously alluring.

“Mr. CEO wouldn’t want to be seen like this, would he?”

“So… don’t expose me. Or I’ll eat you.”

Day N

Late one night, a dark snake tail slithered over the sleeping man’s ankle. A pair of golden eyes glowed faintly in the darkness.

Hiss… A scarlet tongue darted from thin lips, repeatedly tracing the fine shape of the lips belonging to the man beneath him.

Mine… He’s mine…

His vertical pupils contracted with excitement. Xuan Bai used every ounce of strength to control his muscles, ensuring his scales slid gently over his lover, leaving no trace.
