Way of the Devil
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…
All these long-time friends and relatives couldn't even compare to a stranger whom he had only just met. In that moment, Li Shunxi felt a myriad of complicated emotions.
"Brother Lu… I have this map that you seek. However, it’s no longer of any use now. The raging war between the two main factions of the North have wreaked dreadful havoc outside the city… I’m not sure what actually happened, but this map from before is no longer of any use. The Noble Families have made their move…"
His words did, however, remind Lu Sheng that the current state of chaos from the battle between the Zhen Family and the Scarlet District would naturally have resulted in confusion among the demons, devils, ghosts, and the like.
"That’s troublesome…" in that case, he couldn't even find himself a suitable target for testing. It was rather bothersome.
