Plot of Solo Max-Level Newbie

Jinhyuk, a professional gaming Nutuber, was the only person to reach the ending of the game Tower of Trials. However, as the game’s popularity declined, his career began to falter. Just when he was about to give up, the game’s world suddenly became reality, and the Tower of Trials appeared in the real world.
Armed with his extensive knowledge of the game’s mechanics and hidden strategies, Jinhyuk quickly adapted to the dangerous new reality. His unmatched understanding of the tower’s challenges gave him an immediate edge, allowing him to climb the ranks faster than anyone else. He outsmarts both the tower’s deadly monsters and other players with calculated precision.
As Jinhyuk rises through the floors, he encounters powerful adversaries and potential allies. However, not everyone in the tower can be trusted. While navigating political schemes and forming strategic alliances, Jinhyuk also searches for the truth behind the tower’s manifestation. With each level conquered, the mystery deepens, and the stakes grow higher as Jinhyuk inches closer to unraveling the tower’s ultimate purpose.
