It's part of the game! *** This is a story about a game developer who hates horror, but has no choice but to develop games scary enough to traumatize people. You want to curse me for making you piss your pants? If that's the case, who do I curse? *** An SCP inspired story with its own twist! Discord : https://discord.gg/FK7ZQU3b9p

However, in the past, the six palaces had never stopped scheming against each other. Even if he was born noble, thousands of people respected him, and his power was comparable to that of the six palaces.

Her family was in decline. If she was a wise and foolish empress, what would she do? The infatuated and beautiful Consort Jing Yuan, how many more plans did she have?

Soul Game: I'm the Boss Behind the Scenes

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the old gods rose together. The Ji family used the First Flame to activate the eternal Zhou. The gods born from Pangu's blood were afraid of fire, so they controlled the supreme divine power to send down a flood that drowned everything. The chaos of war began to spread across the land like a plague. The fire of the royal family was the first to be extinguished… The Hundred Schools of Philosophy wandered in the darkness… The distant frontier had fallen into a breeding ground for foreign objects... This game, called Song of Nine, had become a global hit as soon as it was released. Chen Kui accidentally transmigrated into the game and became a witness to all of this. He was surprised to find that not only could he kill the monsters in the game, but he could also harvest the treasure rewards from the players. "Gou planning! Why did I lose my enhanced weapon after dying once?" Are you sure this isn't a plot kill?" "I'm paying a lot of money to fight for you! I've been stuck at this Elite monster for three days!" Chen Kui had become the most terrifying world boss in the eyes of countless players. Many years later, at the TGO annual festival, the designer of Song of Nine, who won the Best Game of the Year award, secretly nudged the planner beside him with his elbow. He looked at the game silhouette on the big screen and asked in a low voice, "Are you sure…? Is this really a character that we personally designed?“
