When the world turns into a deadly game governed by gods, a massive abyss known as the Hollow emerges. Powerful guilds quickly monopolize leveling resources while top-tier users become privileged elites, leaving the global player base to watch every descent into the lower floors in hopes of uncovering the ultimate truth.

Lin Du, the legendary first player to conquer the 100th floor, is pushed into the abyss by his most trusted deputy right as he is about to claim his reward. At death’s door, a mysterious entity calling itself a god forces him into a contract.

A century later, Lin Du awakens on the upper levels of the Hollow, trapped in a reconstructed body that registers as a mere level zero weakling. He returns to find that the tactics he originally invented are now textbook law, the teammates who betrayed him are revered as world saviors, and the true history has been completely buried.
