Li Na is a Chinese crawler, sister of Li Jun, teammate of Zhang, and one of the most powerful surviving contestants of the Earth season. Her Changbi race and chain-centered combat build allow her to mark and destroy enormous groups of enemies. Grief, repeated mass killing, and an incurable poison strip away much of her restraint. In Book 8 she voluntarily enters the Pineapple Cabaret exit gambit rather than remain a danger to herself and the remaining crawlers. Li Na enters the broader allied network with Li Jun and Zhang after Carl's intervention in the Maestro's program. The siblings and Zhang share information, rescue support, and combat responsibility across the Iron Tangle and Fifth Floor. Li Na's directness and power complement Li Jun's discipline and Zhang's steadier presence. Her Changbi race is incompatible with ordinary deity worship and supports a highly specialized supernatural body. Li Na uses chains, marks, and large-area attacks that can claim thousands of enemies. During Faction Wars she marks a massed force before Carl can use the Ring of Divine Suffering, then destroys it and reaches level 100. Li Jun dies defending Donut's tower. Li Na directs grief and anger at Donut, whose plan placed him there, even though he chose to fight. The loss damages her relationship with the Princess Posse and accelerates a retreat from ordinary social contact. Zhang remains with her but cannot fully reach her. Li Na selects a biological route with Zhang and kills most opposing teams in an early heat. She acquires the Left to Fester poison, which cannot be cured and worsens when health is restored. Her combat mindset and emotional collapse make continued participation dangerous to allies as well as enemies. Carl proposes the Pineapple Cabaret method after learning it may remove a crawler from the active game without a standard deal. Li Na is informed of the risks and agrees rather than being forced. The gambit takes her off the playing field before the Eleventh Floor. Her exact external location and long-term recovery are not publicly resolved, but she is not reported dead.
