After entering the game world, Bai Yi realizes something is wrong: the timeline has shifted back to *Dawn Rising*’s pre-beta era, years before the version he remembers.
Just as he’s puzzling over this twist, he gets a shocking notification:
*“The Dawn Rising BOSS template has been bound. Testing confirms that the original BOSS, Blood Prison Greedy Wolf, is dead. A new BOSS template is being generated…”*
Bai Yi: Wait, what?
Before he can process it, another message pops up:
*“You’ve crafted an exoskeleton mechanical device. Experience points +10,000. Alchemy proficiency +100. Skill point +1. Bonus experience +10,000.”*
Bai Yi: … Wait, the BOSS can earn experience?
When players finally arrive, they’re astonished to find the infamous BOSS is now their city lord. Bewildered, they stare as Bai Yi, in his new mechanical armor, strategizes their city’s defenses.
Is this game *too* real? How did the BOSS end up running the city and—wait—is he piloting a mech?
