Synopsis

Wen Jianyan was a fraudster that was best at deceiving people.
One day, he was suddenly forced to become a novice anchor in the Nightmare live broadcast room.
Wen Jianyan: “…..”
A newcomer became the most-watched anchor because he was too good at deceiving people.
He lied to his teammates to deceive the audience and NPCs. He could deceive people as well as ghosts.
Sooner or later this guy will overturn!
There were more and more spectators who were gloating with schadenfreude, looking forward for that day.
But…why was the mission in this live room getting more and more strange?
【Senior anchor’s side quest: Kiss the evil spirit for 30 seconds】
【Reward: Unknown】
【Top anchor’s main quest: Undress the evil god for three minutes】
【Reward: Unknown】
Audience: Oh, the streamer has mastered a new wealth code? Hurry up, there’s something our paying viewers can’t watch!
The top boss approached step by step, whispering temptations:
“How is it? Frying CP*? We can make the fake thing real.”
Wen Jianyan: “…..”
I’m sorry, I’m very principled, thank you for not deceiving yourself.
— Don’t come here!
*Frying CP means pretending to be a couple.

Editor's Note

💡 The "Liar’s Paradox" Insight

The Anti-OP Protagonist: What makes this aspect interesting is that Wen Jianyan is not a combat powerhouse. He is a "weak constitution" lead who survives by breaking the game’s rules, finding loopholes, and gaslighting NPCs. If a sign says "Do Not Enter," he lockpicks it; if a ghost wants to kill him, he tries to "scam" it.

The Horror is Real: Honestly, despite the comedic synopsis, the instances are genuinely terrifying. From the Fukang Hospital (body horror/corpses) to the Antai Community (creepy paper dolls), the thriller elements are top-tier. The comedy only provides brief respite after the tension peaks.

Romantic Ambiguity: Personally, the romance is the ultimate slow burn. Because the ML is truly inhuman, the MC’s usual emotional manipulation fails, forcing his "real self" to emerge. It takes nearly 400 chapters for the plot to fully "set sail," making this a marathon for patient readers.

WebNovelDB Analysis

Experience Curve

The Nightmare Log

Ch. 1–100 (The Newbie Fraudster): ⭐⭐⭐⭐ — Focuses on the Decai Middle School and Fukang Hospital. Great introduction to the MC's acting and the "Live" mechanic, but the overarching plot is still hidden.

Ch. 101–350 (The Breaking of Rules): ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ — The Fantasy Amusement Park arc. This is where the novel hits its stride. The "logic chain" and rule-solving are incredible, and the ML becomes more consistent.

Ch. 351–600 (The Ambiguous Allies): ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ — Relationships "heat up" (Prosperity Building arc). The truth about the system begins to leak, and the stakes shift from "survival" to "changing the game."

Ch. 601–729 (The Final Scam): ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ — The Yuying University and Lucky Cruise arcs. Heart-wrenching farewells, massive plot twists, and a highly satisfactory finale that connects every single foreshadowed clue.

Reading Journey Analysis

WebNovelDB Review

9 /10
An impeccable Infinite Flow masterpiece that balances bone-chilling horror with the most charismatic, unreliable narrator in the genre.

Polish: 9.5/10. The world-building is intricate, with every instance interconnected. The "Live Stream" comments add a layer of meta-commentary that reflects the reader's own excitement and schadenfreude.

Pacing: 7/10. It is a massive 4-million-word journey. The start is slow, focusing on character introductions, and the overarching mystery of the "Nightmare System" only starts revealing itself in the late 300s.

Character Depth: 9/10. Wen Jianyan is multifaceted—scared yet brave, ruthless yet fond of children (becoming the "Best Ghost Mom"). The side characters are equally distinct, with their own growth arcs and satisfying conclusions.

Originality: 9/10. The "Fruit of Lies" mechanic and the dynamic of a fraudster vs. a literal god create a unique "psychological thriller" vibe that stands out in a sea of generic horror novels.

The Good:
The "Rule-Breaking" logic. Watching the MC go "yolo" and make the system go "bonkers" because he found a loophole is the highlight of every arc. The "Fantasy Amusement Park" arc is widely considered a masterpiece of logic and action.

The Bad:
The "Audience" can be polarizing. Some readers find the constant stream of comments from useless side characters and the audience to be "intrusive filler" that breaks the flow of the horror.

The Archetype:
The Desperate Gambler — A man who treats his life as the ultimate stake, betting on his own lies to win against a rigged system.

Verdict:
Welcome to the Nightmare Live is a top-3 Infinite Flow novel. It’s for readers who love Thriller Trainee but want a lead who is a bit more of a "human wuss" underneath the brilliance. Stick with it until Chapter 350+—that’s when the "scam" truly turns into a masterpiece.

Key Information

Main Characters: Wen Jianyan (The Fruit of Lies) — A world-class fraudster who was s**ked into the Nightmare Live stream just as he hit a one-billion-dollar score. He is a "principled" liar: shrewd, thick-skinned, and a master of human psychology. Despite being a literal "wuss" who is genuinely terrified of ghosts and throws up from fear, his poker face is unbreakable. His talent, [Fruit of Lies], allows him to turn a lie into reality for 60 seconds based on a dice roll—though his luck is notoriously abysmal. Alongside the Male Lead (The Evil God/Witch's Candle), an inhuman, mirror-based entity with eyes all over his body and shadow tentacles. He is a "wild beast" that selectively ignores what he doesn't want to hear and serves as the only being Wen Jianyan cannot manipulate.
Power System: Nightmare Live Anchor System. Progress is measured through 10 major "instances" (dungeons). Anchors utilize "Talents" and "Items," but talent usage carries a heavy price, slowly destroying the user from within. The stream thrives on "Integrity Points" and audience engagement, where viewers range from "strategy fans" to "simps" calling the MC "My Liar Wife."
Themes: Survival through Deception & Human vs. Inhuman Logic. The novel explores the "Wealth Code" of fan service while maintaining a high-stakes horror atmosphere. It’s a slow-burn journey from "enemies" to "ambiguous allies" to "lovers."
