MTL - Lie Huo Jiao Chou - Chapter 16

Ancient existences wake up in the abyss, demons whisper in people’s ears, unknown horrors erode the spirit, and madness breeds in the darkness of people’s hearts.

But it is not only darkness that descends on this world.

There are heavily armed dark knights walking in the dark to judge crimes; tight-fitting supernatural beings wandering between buildings to act as friendly neighbors; The impossible god on earth, the “S” symbolizing hope shines like the sun on his chest…

No one could have imagined that behind all of them, there was just a player sitting in front of a computer screen holding a keyboard and punching hard.

- Description from novelbuddy

The World God of Terra was devoured by the Outer God, and eldritch creatures enslaved all of humanity. Humanity was reduced to mere livestock, wearing collars with their names and barcodes, labeling them as the property of the Outer God.However, hope wasn’t entirely lost. The World Will of Terra blessed some chosen humans who rose up against the lackeys of the Outer God.Female humans became magical girls, while the males could summon mecha armors and become mecha drivers.Unfortunately, despite being a transmigrator, Linsley Sinclair hadn’t obtained a special ability or blessing from the World Will.As Linsley wallowed in depression, thinking about how messed up the world was, he was snapped back to reality by a sound.-Ding![The God Simulator has been integrated into your soul!]-Ding![It has been detected that the host’s soul has been marked by the Outer God.]-Ding![The system has successfully eradicated the Outer God’s slave mark without alerting the Outer God.]-Ding![It has been detected that the host’s mind has been polluted by the Outer God’s insanity.]-Ding![The host’s mind has been purified and the host is now immune to the Outer God’s mental pollution.][The God Simulator was created by the Will of the Infinite Realities to save this multiverse from the Outer Gods’ corruption.][The main feature of the God Simulator is to create a simulated body and let it transmigrate into another world. The simulated body will enter the simulation, creating an alternate timeline influenced by the host’s actions.][The God Simulator’s goal is for the host to become a god in every simulated world. The host must complete the normal simulation and become a god before entering the full-dive simulation.][If the host dies in the normal simulation, it won’t cause true death since it’s only a simulated body. However, if the host dies during a full-dive simulation, it results in true death.]With the God Simulator, Linsley entered the simulation. In his journey to save the world and become a god, he met beautiful goddesses.However…“You’re telling me that those beautiful goddesses in the simulation are all real?”“And now, they are coming to get me? Fuck!”
