In the wake of the first wave of shadow creatures, the world was plunged into ruin, a desolate yet enchanted wasteland. Humanity, driven underground, clung to survival while desperately plotting to reclaim their shattered world.But from the abyss of darkness, something miraculous stirred—a mysterious tree, shimmering with ancient power, appeared overnight. It chose only the strongest of heart, those with unbreakable will, gifting them extraordinary abilities. With these powers, humanity rose from the depths, waging war against the shadows.Yet beneath the surface of their heroic deeds lay a hidden rot. Corruption seeped into their ranks, and arrogance clouded their judgment. As their powers grew, so did the whispers of betrayal. The true battle may not be against the creatures lurking in the shadows—but against the darkness festering within their own hearts.A question lingers: When heroes fall, who will rise to take their place?

The Republic of San Magnolia.

Having traveled to the Otherworld game for ten years, Li Ang, without any cheats or a wise mentor, fought his way to become the core support of the world's strongest Adventurer's Guild as an ordinary person, earning outstanding merit and being considered the cornerstone of the guild.However, after the team introduced a brand-new merit algorithm, he was defined as consuming resources without contributing and was directly 'optimized'.Ten years of effort went down the drain, and it was only then that the game system appeared in front of him.He decided to reorganize a highly professional and efficient Adventurer's Guild to return to the peak.“Yes, you're a founding member, but if veterans loaf off openly, how can we lead the group?”“The recent key tactics all revolve around my Support Magic—”“Yeah, which made everyone exhausted to death,” a member interrupted Li Ang's words.
