Li Yingxue wakes up to a nightmare: the world has fallen into an apocalypse, and he learns that he is merely a cannon-fodder character destined to die as a minor obstacle in an overpowered protagonist’s rise to fame. Frail, chronically ill, and nearly blind, he has little hope of surviving on his own. Just when he is ready to give up, a man claiming to be his boyfriend appears and offers him a lifeline.

As they face dangerous monsters, survival challenges, dungeon-like instances, and the chaos of the apocalypse, Li Yingxue gradually becomes dependent on his seemingly devoted boyfriend. However, when his eyesight eventually recovers, he makes a shocking discovery: the overpowered protagonist he has been searching for all along is none other than Lu Jun himself.

The novel combines apocalypse survival, supernatural abilities, livestreaming elements, and romance with a healthy dose of drama and comedy. At its heart is the relationship between a beloved, vulnerable protagonist and an obsessively protective top-tier player who will do anything to keep his partner safe—even if it means eliminating every rival who gets too close.
