Demons, devils, ghosts and monsters Plunge the mortals weak in horrors; Arms of gods and blades of devils, Shroud the world in untold evils. Lu Sheng was an ordinary civil servant in the modern world. After waking from a drunken stupor one day, he found himself trapped in a dangerous world where demons, ghosts and supernatural monsters terrorize the land. In this world, ordinary mortals live in dark fear and helplessness, without any means to fight against the supernatural. As Lu Sheng struggles desperately for survival, he stumbles upon a game mod he had designed for a mobile phone app in his previous life. It unexpectedly becomes his special ability, which enables him to instantly level up any skill he learns, albeit at a cost. Thus, Lu Sheng begins his journey, striving for power beyond the reach of a mortal as he treads the way of the Devil…
When Lu Sheng returned home, he found the house deserted. Nobody else was there. Zhuo Siqing sat alone on the couch, puffing on his cigarette. This did not seem to be his first cigarette.
Even when Lu Sheng closed the door, he ignored the sound.
"You seemed to be burning with anxiety when you called me. What's the matter?" Lu Sheng walked up to the couch and sat down.
Zhuo Siqing glanced at him.
"It's nothing. I missed you, that is all."
"Hehe, I'll be leaving, then," Lu Sheng said. He felt speechless.
"You don't have to know too much about this matter for now. I'll take care of it. You should work hard in your university studies," Zhuo Siqing added.
"Mm-hm, I know. The Marine University recruited a huge batch of students again. The numbers are almost twice compared to last year. That's how universities are these days. They're not as valuable as you thought," Lu Sheng remarked casually.
