鬼島傳奇

Welcome to the Afterlife, Salaryman

Dear Newly Deceased,

We regret to inform you that due to your lifetime savings being insufficient to afford a standard columbarium plot, coupled with a severe labor shortage in the Underworld, your "Carefree Reincarnation Program" has been indefinitely frozen by upper management.

Starting today, you will continue your shift in soul form. Remember: Death was never an escape. The 9:00 AM morning meeting is.

【 About Your New Position 】

You will be stationed in a parallel universe known as "Ghost Island," where you will face a cruel cycle where everything inflates except your salary. There is no magic here, and no legendary artifacts. Your only assets are your severely damaged liver and the clicking speed of your left mouse button, sharpened by years of social battery.

【 Employee Benefits & Survival Guide 】

We provide our entry-level staff with "challenging" room for growth. Please read the following survival protocols carefully:

• Dual-Track Health Management: Physical & Mental Attrition In this realm, dropping to zero HP merely sends you back to your desk to "respawn." The real killer is your "Sanity (SAN)." Faced with the boss’s corporate gaslighting and the landlord’s rent-hike notices, your self-esteem will take true "Psychic Penetration" damage. Once your sanity collapses, the world will reveal its most distorted and authentic malice.

• Zero-Cost Scavenging Combat Since you can’t afford high-end gear, make use of local resources. Collect "Scrap Paper" and "Spit" from the black market, and add the essential "Pearls" at a Dilapidated Crafting Station to brew a lethal cup of "Dialysis Bubble Tea" for your enemies. The poor have their own way of fighting back.

• Highly Uncontrollable Hostile Work Environment Be prepared to be targeted by the "General Environment" at any time. Just when you think you’ve mastered the rules of survival, society will find a way to ninja-patch them. You will face sudden predatory clauses, non-negotiable contracts, and even the malicious collapse of the entire system. The best way to fight injustice is to stay alive and click it away.

• Comprehensive Underground Economy & "Greasing" Mechanisms Work hard to earn "Nether Merit (Karma)." In a system where even reincarnation depends on who you know, bribing the right NPCs for perks in the next loop is the only shortcut to freedom. If you truly can’t take it anymore, you can pray to be hit by a gravel truck again—completely discarding all progress and memory to start over.
