"Based on our investigation, we have come to a terrifying conclusion: He is hijacking the Strange Game! So far, all instances of the Strange Game have shown signs of His involvement, whether it's vending machines, wishing wells, or anything else... Now, all we can do is submit."

Su Cheng originally just wanted to play a game to pass the time, but he didn't expect that after completing the game, he would get the opportunity to become a "mysterious merchant" in the bizarre game.
The Mysterious Merchant
Elegance is the essence of mystery. As the most enigmatic person, how could you allow attacks from others to harm you? As long as the attacker feels fear, uncertainty, or respect for you, you will disregard any attack they may launch.
[Beautiful Ghost Coins are what you pursue; you can rely on absorbing Ghost Coins to increase your strength without limit.]

Looking at his countless entries, aliases, and organizations, Su Cheng smiled slightly:
"Welcome to the eerie game... This is my eerie game!"
"Hello, my name is Borogo Lazarus, a debtor."
The wounds on Boluogo's face were healing at a speed visible to the naked eye. The blood remaining on the face flowed back, and the skin was rejoined, as if going back in time.
Facing the demon who was dying of fear, he whispered.
"This is my 'gift' and my 'debt'."

The Bureau of Order, the King's Secret Sword, the Monks of Truth, the Orangutan Sect, the Secret Groups...the entities lurking in the shadows of history are trying to join this grand carnival.
Under the curtain, the devils enjoy the pain of mortals, taste the value of sacrifice, play with fate, and grant curses and blessings.

In her previous life, Jiang Ran had a cheating father, a hypocritical stepmother, a vicious brother, and was sold out while helping count the money

Entering the game, she takes down her family and acquires an S-level skill card: Annihilation
Annihilation: The most complete disappearance is substitution. After using this skill, you may strip the identity of players who die at your hands
With endless supplies and countless alternate identities, Jiang Ran goes solo and builds an empire
Eventually, people realize in shock—the richest merchant, the most brilliant crafter, the most aloof mercenary, and the luckiest lottery winner
All those big names are actually Jiang Ran’s sock puppets
And her goal never changed: she’ll survive until the train reaches the final station
As for those who stand in her way… Jiang Ran sips red wine in the first-class carriage and smiles slightly: I can only invite you to die

One day, when he was five years old, a strange Fate Trickster appeared in his dreams. Ten years later, he dreams of becoming a lord. To do so, he takes a chance to trade his fate!
That day, Wang Zhong once again stood at the gates of the Tianjing Heroic Soul Academy. He was about to start a brand new life.
Jiang Yan was reborn as a jerk in the world of supernatural resurrection, and awakened the system of choosing a heavenly master. From then on, there was a crazy and despicable heavenly master in this world, carrying a sledgehammer to spread love and peace with evil spirits everywhere.
Tomorrow's headline: "The world is dangerous! The sound of ghosts knocking on the door late at night was too loud, and they even attracted a beating from the neighbor's gangster brother!"
Enthusiastic Junyangzhong: "Uncle police, I saw a gangster brother robbing a headless female ghost with my own eyes. Damn, he also wanted to rob?!"
Humble ghost kings: "Wuwuwu, big brother, don't dig, forced demolition is illegal, there is really no mine under our graves!!!"
Jiuzhou Supernatural Investigation Team: "The leaders may not believe it, but now the evil ghosts in China are rushing to do good things all day long, for fear of being found by Jiang Yan, the gangster brother. At this rate, we may be unemployed..."
On the day of the Awakening of Insects in 2046, twelve stone pillars rose from the ground. With a snap of the fingers, the first unnatural flame flickered on the thumb, marking the beginning of a new era for humanity—the Age of Awakening.
I am a university student. I got lost, and everyone here calls me “Young Master Ji” and advises me to mourn and accept fate. Before I could even react, the county magistrate's daughter—just selected into an immortal sect—came to break off our engagement. Hah, what an interesting start.
I began to understand this strange world and saw that beneath the flourishing immortal cultivation and the rising dynasty lay thousands of miles of corpses and a people in misery. These cultivators feast on the fat of the land, drain the world’s spiritual veins dry with their alchemy and cultivation, and in the end, ascend to the heavens with loud laughter—how are they any different from corrupt officials who embezzle funds and flee abroad?
At first, I truly didn’t intend to get involved in this conflict; I just quietly did what little I could.
But when Ji You stood atop the mountain peaks and watched the immortal path collapse beneath the boundless sky, he felt truly innocent.

"This is the Eternal Night Continent."
"My territory."
"Doctor, it seems that the game I made has become a reality."
"Isn't this great? Nowadays, people are under so much work pressure, but you can get rid of it, play in the world, and live the life of your dreams."

"Then...do you think I look familiar?"
"Why am I a god?"
"Before I talk about it, I want to confess my sins."
On the high platform, An Lelang, who was wearing a black robe, spoke loudly.
"First of all, I who committed the crime of gluttony."
"Because the hunger in his belly snatched his body for food."
"And then, me who committed the crime of laziness."
"Extensively recruit believers, give them blessings, and provide them with the opportunity to discover the meaning of life from work."
