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…
After some hassle, Duanmu Wan changed into Lu Sheng's clothes. They both sat down in the study and Lu Sheng brought her some food and tea.
They started to talk as they ate.
"I'm so lucky to have met you. Honestly, I didn't think I would be able to stay alive." Duanmu Wan was holding a cup of fruit tea, letting the warm liquid soothe her throat.
"I'm not going to ask you what happened. What plans do you have for the future?" Lu Sheng looked at her calmly.
"I owe you the Devil Gold. I'll pay you back. But there's no way to get rid of the matrix in my head. They took out part of my brain and substituted it with the matrix. If you take away the Mind-Controlling Needle, my life will be in danger," Duanmu Wan spoke calmly.
"You don't seem worried at all," Lu Sheng observed strangely.
