This is a game novel world that is both fictional and real.
The story revolves around the protagonist, Su Zheng, who transmigrates into a game world he once played, awakens a cheat system, and grows from a nobody to conquer dungeons and levels.
Finally, the protagonist maxes out his level and experience, absorbs all the energy of the small world, breaks through the world barrier, and leaves.
The protagonist changes maps and expands into new territories.
The small world collapsed.
The original owner of this body, Yu Shuang, was an NPC in the Hundred Herbs Hall instance of this world.
Its function is to issue tasks and contribute the unique treasures of Baicaotang to outsiders.
Apart from the protagonist, who is a time traveler, no native inhabitant knows that the world they depend on for survival is just a game to outsiders.
They are flesh and blood, with their own thoughts and feelings, their own storylines…
They are all living, breathing people.
The original owner was no exception.
Although her activities were limited to Baicaotang.
That's because Baicaotang has had a rule since its inception that the heirs are not allowed to leave the premises, and this has been the rule for generations.
Although she didn't know why she was issuing those meaningless tasks?
Isn't this blatantly giving away their territory's treasures for free?
But what can you do when there are rules at Baicaotang?
All the unreasonable aspects can be attributed to the rules of Baicaotang.
That makes sense.
He was the head of Baicaotang for countless generations.
She never even considered breaking the rules.
Let's not even talk about the terrible karmic curses that come with breaking the rules.
She has a deep reverence for her ancestors and respects all the rules they established.
I genuinely believe that every seemingly absurd rule has its own reason for existing.
She simply hadn't yet grasped the profound intentions of her ancestors...
Whether it was passive or active, the original owner had no reason to violate the rules.
Until a young man who didn't follow the rules came to Baicaotang.
At first, I accepted tasks from her in the normal way and exchanged them for benefits. Who knew that she secretly stumbled upon the treasure vault of Baicaotang and stole it all without any sense of martial ethics.
They successfully aroused the original owner's hatred, and the original owner led all his disciples to besiege and kill him.
The protagonist, who was cheating, easily wiped out the entire team, leaving behind a pile of experience points and equipment.
The protagonist indifferently glanced at the corpses scattered on the ground and casually uttered a sentence:
"It's just a game, why take it so seriously?"
He then sprinkled the corpse-dissolving powder, turned around, and left gracefully.
Call him ruthless or cold-hearted, he's not a saint. He has ambitions and wants to build a career, so of course he has to be ruthless.
He tries his best not to sympathize with the figures composed of these data.
It's just a string of data; once it's dead, it's dead.
He has been convincing himself of this all along the way.
There are many NPCs like the original owner who are used to gain experience points. They are either indirectly or passively hostile to the protagonist, and none of them are spared. They all contribute to the protagonist's growth path.
...
"Master Yu, I have completed the task you entrusted to me. This is a token from Yunjian Manor to you."
When Yu Shuang came to her senses, she saw a sleazy-looking martial arts figure standing in front of her, his shifty eyes looking at her expectantly.
You don't need to guess to know what he's thinking.
They must be feeling lucky to have gotten another small advantage.
According to the original owner's memories, these so-called martial arts figures had taken advantage of Baicaotang a lot over the years.
If it weren't for the limitations of the mission, Baicaotang would have been ripped off by these people sooner or later.
Seeing the other person's ugly face so close, Yu Shuang retaliated with a powerful backhand thrust.
"Smack!" The sleazy street thug was sent flying.
At the same time, some eerie light also appeared on Yu Shuang's body, which was the so-called curse of evil deeds for breaking the rules.
It was quickly overshadowed by the golden light emanating from her body.
The sleazy street urchin stood frozen on the ground, covering his face, staring at Yu Shuang with a mixture of grievance and shock.
"Master Yu, what are you doing?!"
Yu Shuang walked slowly over, her powerful aura making it hard to breathe with every step she took. As she got closer, someone began to tremble.
What happened? He didn't break any taboos...
What did I do to offend this person?
Yu Shuang looked down at him and said in a contemptuous tone:
"My Baicaotang has plenty of disciples. Why would I need an outsider like you to run errands?"
The sleazy street thug stared wide-eyed: "...!!"
No... to be honest, you posted this task yourself!
