The Boss Behind The Game

There is a large world in the extreme north of the sky world called Tianyu.

This place was once extremely prosperous. Relying on the local forces who were constantly searching for resources outside the territory, this world had a huge resource inventory. Later, with the joint cooperation of various major forces, the Tianyu world was built and promoted to the spiritual world. It is one of the few special worlds in the extraterrestrial world that can upgrade the spiritual energy level of the entire world.

But with the invasion of an extraterrestrial creature, the place completely changed.

The arriving creatures are called "fear species" in a special way. They like to feed on fearful emotions and grow accordingly. Especially the fear of the strong is their favorite food.

They sealed off the Tianyu world, imprisoned all creatures living in the Tianyu world, and began to spread fear.

In terms of strength, although the fear species are not as powerful as the Zerg, they are also a well-known predatory force in the outside world.

Their desire for resources is not strong. What they really desire is to enjoy the energy brought by fear.

With the invasion of the fear species, the major forces in this world also joined forces to resist, but there was an obvious gap in strength. In the end, the world fell and was ruled by the fear species.

At that time, all creatures in the world of Tianyu were like cattle and sheep in captivity, and their life and death were not decided by themselves at all.

In order to create a steady stream of fear in the creatures in the world of heaven, the fear species may not necessarily carry out large-scale killings when they rule this world.

This also causes the creatures in the Tianyu world to always be dominated by fear, because they don't know when they will die, and it may be in the next large-scale massacre.

In order to allow fear to spread better, the horror species has transformed the aura of this world, turning it into a special negative aura that can continuously expand the inner fear of creatures.

In such an atmosphere, the world of Tianyu completely fell and was ruled by the fear species for five hundred years.

And the creatures in this world were also transformed by the special fear aura, and lost the belief in resistance, and spent their days in hesitation.

This transformation is undoubtedly successful.

Just like colonization, invasion is the first step, and the transformation of the spiritual level of the native indigenous people is the key.

Under the skilled operation of fear creatures, this world has been completely transformed into their "fear farm", continuously providing them with food (fear emotions).

Without that person's appearance, there would be no possibility for this world to turn around...

…

Before the era, in the world of Tianyu, it was the 876th year when the world was ruled by the fear species.

In a vast forest in the north of the world, a new member was born in the "Nether Copper" tribe of about a thousand people.

The birth of the baby eased the tense nerves and fears of the tribe members.

At this moment, all the members were gathered in the tribal square, waiting for the high priest to pray for the new-born baby.

When the high priest picked up the baby from the "spiritual spring water", the eyes of the tribe members immediately focused on the baby's tender face.

Different from the haggard and hesitant expressions on their faces, the baby showed a smile and kept pulling at the high priest with his hands.

Seeing this scene, the tribe members also had smiles on their faces.

This was the child of their high priest. For his birth, the clan members knelt on one knee and sent their blessings along with the prayers.

When the prayer ended, the high priest looked at the baby with kind eyes and stroked his forehead:

"May you always smile and never be tortured by fear!"

The baby kicked its little feet,

His eyes smiled into two crescent moons.

…

His name is "Ming Xiao". He was born ordinary. He has no outstanding fighting talent or special blood blessing. His only characteristic is that he loves to laugh.

In this world dominated by fear, he is an alternative, because he always smiles, as if he is not affected by the fear of this world at all.

Since Mingxiao was born, the smile on his face has been a source of comfort for the tribe members in their repressed lives and is full of contagion.

Although Ming Xiao is very naughty and mischievous, as long as they see him, the mood of the members will improve.

Soon Ming Xiao reached the age of 15 in such an environment.

This year, his mother sent him to a main city outside the forest to start his training.

This stage is also a process that every member of the Nether Copper Tribe must go through.

Due to the scarcity of resources in the forest, especially the extreme shortage of spiritual stones, the only way to earn the necessary spiritual stones is by relying on places like the main city.

For more than 800 years, the value of spiritual stones has increased rapidly, and it has become an indispensable necessity for all living things.

Because the aura of this world has been polluted into a special negative aura, if you take in too much, you will fall into madness uncontrollably and die in extreme fear. Only by ingesting some pure spiritual energy from time to time can we have a chance to continue living.

And those spiritual stones that have been mined have become a means for most creatures to fight against special negative spiritual energy. They must regularly absorb the spiritual energy in the spiritual stones to maintain their mental state.

Every household in the Mingtong Tribe has someone working in the main city to earn spiritual stones to support their family.

The 15-year-old Ming Xiao also joined them at that time and became a blacksmith who forged weapons in the main city.

This kind of life is undoubtedly boring. Compared with the carefree life in the past, Ming Xiao's face lacks a lot of smiles.

Because he had to work at the "forging furnace" every day, and the wages (spiritual stones) paid regularly every month would be collected by his mother, leaving only a small amount of money for him to meet his daily consumption.

Sometimes because Ming Xiao was slow at work and received less monthly wages, his mother would send him letters scolding and blaming him.

What made Ming Xiao the most angry was that once because he bought some play props for fun, part of the salary he sent home that month was reduced. The letter from his mother made Ming Xiao feel chilled.

In the letter, her mother said that she needed a lot of spiritual stones for her cultivation, so she asked him to send back most of the spiritual stones he earned and not buy any other entertainment items.

Ming Xiao felt extremely aggrieved by her mother's request.

He also became rebellious because of this, wondering why children from other families in the tribe could live happily in the main city. Why should I feel so wronged to myself?

From then on, Ming Xiao would deliberately send less wages to her mother, and follow the example of other children in the tribe, using her monthly wages for consumption and fun.

This was his protest against his mother's behavior.

Faced with the subsequent scolding letters sent by her mother, Ming Xiao didn't even pay attention to them.

He wants to live his own life and no longer wants to be restricted by his mother.

But Ming Xiao still underestimated his mother. After a few months of living freely, the blacksmith shop suddenly began to deduct his wages, leaving only a small part for his food, clothing, housing and transportation.

Ming Xiao angrily asked the old blacksmith why, and the old blacksmith also told him the answer.

Because this was his mother's request. She was the high priest of the Nether Copper Tribe and had business dealings with the blacksmith. The blacksmith chose to support her decision. As for the missing wages, it was not a deduction, but was sent back to her mother.

At that moment Ming Xiao was completely angry.

For such a mother, Ming Xiao even had the urge to abandon her.

You need spiritual stones, don’t I?

Practice! Practice! Why do you only care about yourself? Am I not your child?

At that time, Ming Xiao completely stopped laughing. He chose to leave the blacksmith shop and find a new job. He no longer wanted to be controlled by his mother.

At this point, Mingxiao stood on the opposite side of her mother.

Time goes by, ten years pass in the blink of an eye, and the experience is over.

But Ming Xiao had no intention of returning to the tribe, because his mother there made him feel chilled.

Even though his mother sent him a letter asking him to go back, he didn't have the slightest idea.

Because he no longer wants to be controlled by his mother.

At that time, Ming Xiao thought that he would spend his whole life in the main city and never return to the tribe.

But variables still emerged.

Although the location of this main city is very remote, located at the extreme north of the world, the terrifying crisis sweeping the land has quietly arrived.

That day, dark shadows appeared in the sky along with the bloody light, and a dark red cloud quietly approached the main city from the horizon.

As this huge cloud approaches, fear spreads...

Their killing seems to be an art. They will not be fatal instantly, but will slowly torture the target creature's senses, causing it to die in extreme pain and fear.

Most of the creatures in the main city were lying on the ground at this moment, struggling wildly, fear had choked their throats, their mental defenses collapsed instantly, and they were completely trapped in a prison of fear and could not escape.

Countless black shadows were hovering and flying over the main city, swallowing up the fear overflowing in the main city.

At this moment, no one thought about resisting. Courage had already been shattered by fear.

The remaining creatures rely entirely on ingesting the spiritual energy in the spirit stones and survive in a trembling state. As soon as the spirit stones are exhausted, they will die like the distorted-looking companions around them.

Before the crisis completely arrived, a large number of creatures escaped from the main city and began to flee for their lives.

At that time, Ming Xiao also escaped from the main city among the crowd and ran towards the forest.

The dark red clouds also slowly advanced at this time, covering the main city and constantly devouring the lives of the creatures in the main city.

That was the first time Ming Xiao felt the emotion of fear. It was like a devil's claw clinging to his back, ready to break his neck and take away his life at any time.

After running away day and night, Ming Xiao exhausted all his energy, and people kept falling around him. So he didn't dare to neglect, and could only continue to grit his teeth and run wildly.

The main city fell and he had nowhere to go. Now it seemed that his only option was to return to the tribe.

Although that was a place he didn't want to go back to, but now he had no choice.

After three days and three nights of traveling, he returned to the tribe, but what he saw shocked him.

The tribe has long since fallen, and there are corpses with distorted faces everywhere. The members of the tribe were all killed in extreme panic.

Ming Xiao thought of his mother at that moment. Although he hated her, he still ran to the house where his mother was.

When he opened the door, he saw his horrified mother lying beside the bed. Her body was already stiff. You can imagine what a painful struggle she went through to die.

At that moment, Ming Xiao felt very complicated.

But at this moment, he found two letters in his mother's hand.

After opening it, Ming Xiao was shocked by the contents inside.

[My son, I know that you are naughty by nature. Mother is afraid that you will have no one to rely on after your death. I have stored all the spiritual stones you earned under the bed. Including those earned by my mother, there are a total of seven thousand three hundred and twenty-six stones. This will be your last resort in this world dominated by fear. Disasters may come at any time, so protect yourself. 】

Seeing this letter, Ming Xiao's eyes widened and he couldn't suppress the trembling in his heart.

Taking a deep breath and holding back his emotions, he opened the second letter.

【My son, may you smile forever!】

This sentence was the blessing given to him by his mother when he was born.

It was also the last words his mother left for him.

Looking at his dead mother, Ming Xiao shed tears:.

"I spent ten years competing with you, but in the end I lost everything, hahahaha!"

The first turning point in Ming Xiao's life came from his mother's selfless love.
