After losing his job, Liam White is swept into a never-ending live-streamed game, filled with all sorts of monsters and murderous players.
At first, everyone thought Liam White was just an ordinary person who accidentally entered the game.
Later, they realized it was the game itself that welcomed its god with victory and laurels, saying to Liam White, welcome home.
Terrifying non-human godly top * money-obsessed, explosive, a little crazy bottom
Inspired by tabletop RPGs, Lovecraftian and other sci-fi supernatural worldviews, this is a completely fictional world, all settings are original
Reading Notes:
Male lead, infinite flow, slow-burn, power-up, feel-good novel
Warnings: Main focus is on plot, very little romance, top is fragmented, extremely long novel, bottom is a dramatic Mary Sue and a total heartthrob, potential triggers are quite dense, readers who mind these should proceed with caution. If you’re worried about triggers, you can wait until it’s finished and check other readers’ reviews before starting.
This story is set in a fictional game world, with no relation to reality. Please do not project real life onto it.
Everyone is welcome to comment and review, any score is fine, but if you really find yourself not enjoying it halfway through, I suggest you stop reading and move on—just leave a few complaints and drop the book, don’t believe recommendations like “it gets really good later” and force yourself to keep going. The quality is about the same throughout, so if you’re not enjoying the beginning, I sincerely suggest you run.jpg. Readers paying for the novel shouldn’t have to suffer.
However, I will apply to delete comments that are intense personal attacks, incite conflict, or violate Jinjiang’s rules. Please don’t mention my novel under other people’s works; if I see it, I’ll report it, same for videos.
Anti-theft ratio is 50%. If you can’t read new chapters after purchasing, try clearing your cache or contacting customer service. Updates are usually at night, and after V, there should be frequent extra updates.
I hope everyone discusses harmoniously and enjoys reading.
Chapter 1 Siren Town
Liam White woke up to find himself sitting in the back seat of a car. The interior was cramped and narrow, the worn seatbacks reeked of realistic cigarette smoke, and water trickled down the car windows in uneven streams. Through the glass, he could vaguely see the fine drizzle outside. The sky was gloomy, making it impossible to tell if it was dusk or night. A faint, unpleasant smell of salted fish lingered in his nose.
Floating in front of him was a panel, on which was written—[Game Instructions].
Liam White frowned.
Where was this? Why was he here? And what was this panel?
The panel seemed to sense the questions in his mind, and answers appeared on it one by one.
[You are in a deadly game, and the reason you are here is because we detected that after losing your job, you developed an intense desire for money—so strong that it meets the conditions for the game to begin.]
As the words appeared on the panel, Liam White finally recalled a few things.
Yes, that’s right, he had lost his job.
And he was someone with an intense craving for money. He had loved money to an abnormal degree since childhood, to the point that a psychologist diagnosed him with [money hoarding disorder], warning him that if he didn’t control his desire for money, he would eventually risk his life for it.
When he had a job, Liam White still had a fixed monthly income to barely restrain his craving for money. But after losing his job, Liam White fell into an uncontrollable, burning urge to hoard money at any cost. His psychologist said this was a normal mental state for a laid-off office worker and told him to adjust, relax, and see the world.
Liam White just wanted to sneer at that. Without money, all you can see is hell, not the world.
Liam White mocked the psychologist: “If I go out and see the world, will I become rich?”
The psychologist exclaimed, “Of course not, you’ll just get even poorer.”
Liam White: “……” Are you fucking kidding me? You know exactly what’s going to happen, don’t you?
