Retrograde Gaming

Due to his failure to buy a gaming helmet needed to play virtual reality games, the malovent-looking Li Huailin steels his heart and DIYs a homemade gaming pod to play the new online game, Heart of Glory.

To his surprise, he ends up creating a bug with his in-game character.

Others kill monsters for experience, but he gets negative experience from killing monsters.

Others earn money and gain experience from completing missions, but he gets experience and money deducted from completing missions.

As he begins believing that there’s no point playing this game again, he dies—only to have a windfall of experience. He comes to a realization…

He will not die if he doesn’t court death!

To level up, Li Huailin begins a life of desperately courting death!
