My coworkers and I are forcibly dragged into a bizarre game with the initial title displayed as "War of the Plants". Everyone crowds around to choose camps or safe houses with abundant water resources. I am the only one who picks a plastic apartment in the desert with no water or electricity. My female supervisor mocks me in front of everyone, saying I must be out of my mind. No one is willing to team up with me, and they even bet I won't last three days. When choosing abilities, everyone rushes for practical powers like spatial storage or metal control. I, however, choose reverse photosynthesis that allows me to gain energy from air humidity. Everyone immediately mutes me in the game. Clearly, no one wants to hear my desperate cries for help later. But when the system revokes team permissions and administrator functions, everyone is stunned. The game's name is reset to "Magnet Apocalypse".

26 years ago, Don Colonna of the Las Vegas Colonna crime family was murdered by his underboss, Stefano. The Don's infant daughter was stolen from her crib and dumped in the casino slums, while a false heir, Giulia, was installed in her place. The real heir, Rosa, was raised like a cleaning woman—scrubbing casino floors for twenty years, never even knowing her own surname. Then Marco, an old loyalist of the family, recognizes the crow-shaped birthmark on her neck and arranges for her to slip into the Don's funeral rites. When Rosa's fingers touch the coffin, her pupils contract, her nose bleeds, and she sees how everyone present will die. She also sees that Dante, the new Don of the rival family, will die in her arms—and that she herself will be his killer.

Eight years ago, ECLIPSE—the world's first neural-immersion connection game—launched. But the moment it booted up, it swallowed reality whole. Its rules overwrote the world, and humanity went from being players to being survivors in a genuine fight for their lives. Death was no longer a respawn button you could press after logging off; it meant permanent deletion once your resurrection count ran dry. Ethan led the survivors through eight years of brutal combat, and finally slew the world-tier boss, Nidhogg the Void Dragon. The kill dropped a mythic-tier item capable of rewriting the world's very rules—the Dragon Core. Yet just as humanity's hope seemed within reach, the two comrades he trusted most, Marcus and Rachel, chose betrayal. To seize control of the Dragon Core, Marcus drove a blade through Ethan's chest himself. In his final moment, Ethan finally understood: everything he'd fought so hard to protect had long been manipulated by a conspiracy hidden in the shadows. But the Dragon Core never acknowledged Marcus. The instant Ethan died, it triggered an unknown power—and rolled the entire world back eight years. When Ethan opened his eyes again, he was back in the final few hours before ECLIPSE's launch. Having lived through the apocalypse once, he knew exactly how the world would change that night, and precisely which resources, which people, which opportunities would decide the future. He claimed the legendary Founder's Chip ahead of everyone else, awakened a power he had never possessed in his previous life, and discovered that the Dragon Core—returned to him across time—was already bending the game's rules.
