Game loading (fix)
Chapter 1
Woohoo…
The rustling wind made strange noises.
In the dark, enclosed space, there lay a woman in a thin black veil. Her long pink hair was scattered all over the floor, and seemed to merge with the veil. She looked like a fallen angel, peaceful, gentle, yet dangerous.
She stood up slowly, and the wind from somewhere lifted up her black dress and long hair, making them flutter in the air.
In an instant, a light source appeared right in front of her, and the white light attracted her subconsciously to walk towards it.
As I got closer, the light source suddenly disappeared and something like a projection appeared.
[It has been detected that the life signs of the service object have been restored. The system binding process is now started. 】
【Binding Successfully】
The emotionless, cold mechanical sound rang in Ruan Jiyan's ears.
Where is this place, why is she here, what is she talking about? For a moment, Ruan Jiyan's mind was full of questions one after another. She was clearly sleeping in her soft bed and enjoying her life.
For a moment, she had the illusion that she had gone to heaven, but her intuition told her that this was not the way to heaven at all, but perhaps to hell.
[The program has been opened and is loading the basic information of the service object...]
【Name of service recipient: Ruan Jiyan】
[Identity: Real person NPC in "Fast and Furious Loading"]
[Previous identity: Player who completed the dungeon]
…
【Loading completed】
[Congratulations on being chosen by the Lord God to become the only real NPC in the dungeon. ]
Ruan Jiyan stood there in a daze, with the cold expression on his face still on.
【Welcome to the "Death Loading" game instance. The instance has now become a death game due to the horror resurrection. In order to protect more players from successfully completing the instance, we have arbitrarily bound the game system with you to jointly fight against game bugs and maintain the instance environment and player gaming experience.】
She stared at the projected identity column in a trance, with a look of surprise frozen on her face. If she guessed correctly, she should be back in this game again.
She still remembered that just a few months ago, she had just cleared the Abyss Festival dungeon and returned to the real world, starting her salted fish life with the one million US dollars rewarded for clearing the dungeon. She lived a boring but happy life every day, and in the blink of an eye, she came to this space.
A beam of white light was projected from above where she was standing. It was bright within a one-meter radius, and the rest was just endless darkness.
Why bring her into this horror game again? Hasn't she already successfully completed it and returned to the real world?
What kind of cheating operation is this?
"No need to congratulate me. This blessing is for you. Please send me back quickly." There was no joy in her tone.
The last time Ruan Jiyan entered a dungeon, he was like sweeping for mines in a minefield, taking every step carefully. After leaving the dungeon, he used the idle time to observe other players' cloud broadcast rooms and various strategies, writing down every dangerous part of the dungeon and where he could find rewards.
I managed to clear the dungeon with the help of the experience summarized in the cloud broadcast rooms of various players. Even if I didn't lose a life, I almost lost half of it.
After finally getting rid of that horrible nightmare, I pulled her back when she was happiest and let her experience it again.
Ruan Jiyan: "I now understand why so few people return to the real world."
System: “?”
I have come back alive, but I have to be caught and experience it again. If I don’t go to hell, who will?
"Whoever wants to go to this hell can go there, just let me go back." Ruan Jiyan didn't have any thoughts and just wanted to return to the real world.
This time the system simply pretended to be deaf, not being able to hear her voice and not giving any answer.
It looks like there is no room for negotiation.
"What's in it for me?" Ruan Jiyan didn't want to hear what he said about helping other players. She was a selfish person and would not do any deal that had no benefits.
The system prefers hosts with conditions, and does not need to worry about other problems with clearly marked transactions. The system happily said: [Of course, after the host completes the task, there will be a chance to realize any wish of the host. ]
[Not only that, every time the host completes a dungeon mission, there will be a great reward, which can upgrade the level and also issue special dungeon items. ]
Ruan Jiyan knew that he could not return to the real world, so he could only pretend to be reluctant and agreed.
Then, the system mechanical sound sounded again.
[We have detected strong emotional fluctuations in the service recipient and are about to initiate a mission]
[The mission has been started. The service object will enter the dungeon in eighty seconds. After the mission is completed, the service object can return to the real world and continue living. All the game reward data obtained by the service object can be exchanged for anything the service object wants.]
How could it be that good? Ruan Jiyan didn't believe it and asked the projection-like thing in front of her suspiciously, "Really, I can still return to the real world and won't be taken back to the game?"
[Absolutely true! Also, please upgrade and enable live streaming as soon as possible. The protection period for newbies is two days. If the service object cannot enable live streaming after two days, it will face death.]
…
Live streaming? She remembered that there was no mandatory requirement to enable the live streaming setting in the game, so why did she die if she didn't enable it?
Ruan Ji Yan nodded hesitantly, not caring about anything else. He decided to enter the game first and think about it slowly.
[When the game is turned on, the system will send the player to a dungeon. If the live broadcast is not turned on within the time limit, the service object will face death...]
The mechanical sound gradually faded away, the only light disappeared, and the surroundings fell into darkness again. Only the wind came from nowhere, blowing Ruan Ji Yan to the ground.
Magnetic...Magnetic...
Gradually, a bright light appeared in front of Ruan Jiyan's eyes, and the surrounding scenery began to become clear. There was a cross necklace hanging in front of his chest, and the sound of magnetic current from the system came out.
The system needs to keep an eye on Ruan Jiyan's actions at all times to judge whether she has completed her tasks, so it turned into a cross necklace that accompanies her at all times.
But even so, when the system becomes a cross, it is a normal cross, and the communication between one person and one system is all in Ruan Jiyan's mind.
Finally, she saw clearly where she was. She was in a forest, with tall trees in disarray, and it was impossible to find the direction at a glance. The lush branches intertwined, blocking the sky, and only a little moonlight could shine in.
All Ruan Jiyan saw was trees and more trees. Just by looking at the scene in front of her, she found it difficult to guess which copy this was from.
[The instance you are currently in is a horror werewolf killing instance. Players are killing werewolves in the werewolf fortress. The host is needed to guide and rescue the players so that the mission of this instance can be completed faster. System prompt: The first bug has been hidden in this instance. Players are requested to find and eliminate the bug. ]
The sound of electric current dripping could be heard.
[Game copy: Horror Werewolf Kill]
[Difficulty level: C (lower difficulty, lower mortality rate)]
[Player/NPC name: Ruan Jiyan]
【Level: Level 1】
【Mission: Hide your true strength, find and solve the bug. 】
[Mission Rewards: To be explored (the more players you help clear the level, the richer the rewards)]
[Player's initial life points: After 100 life points are consumed, the player will face death. The current san value is 100. If the san value continues to decrease, the player will face death. ]
【Loading for you... Loading successfully. 】
A progress bar appeared in front of her, then went dark once all the information was loaded.
Then she heard a mechanical sound: Welcome to "Loading"
After the mechanical sound stopped, she called out "system" softly. She remembered that the projection mentioned that she had bound a system, although she didn't know if she could summon it now.
【I am here.】
"Is there any tool that can provide lighting, or can you point me in a direction?" In this pitch-black environment, it was difficult for her to take even two steps, let alone find the werewolf castle.
[15 points redemption, do you need it? ]
"want."
Although she only had 100 points, she did not hesitate to change it. Now that she had just started, there were many ways to gain life points, and she would not be stingy with this.
[Redemption successful] In an instant, Ruan Jiyan had a candle with a candlestick and a box of matches in his hand.
She lit the candle with a match, and the surroundings suddenly became much brighter. She strode forward in the light.
The dry leaves rustled as he stepped on the ground, which was very pervasive in this deserted place. Ruan Jiyan rubbed his hands, slowly hugged his arms, and a trace of fear rose in his heart.
Gradually, her vision became brighter and clearer, and she walked out of the forest.
The environment of this copy is slowly changing, and the distribution of the forest is also very strange. It seems that there is no end in the forest, but when there is a boundary line in the field of vision, it quickly reaches the edge of the forest, and the forest seems to disappear suddenly.
After Ruan Jiyan walked out of the forest, he found that he was surrounded by mist with a faint green color, and there was an indescribable terrifying aura blowing on his face.
Even so, she would not be scared. After all, she had experienced this game environment once and was not scared before, so how could she be scared this time?
The fog was not very thick, so she could still find the basic direction. Seeing the lighted building not far away, Ruan Ji Yan walked over without hesitation.
When you approach the Werewolf Castle, an animation is triggered. A terrifying scream is heard from the Werewolf Castle, and then the crows and bats hiding on the building are scared away. Finally, it ends with two weird laughs.
Ruan Jiyan walked slowly forward and arrived in front of the Black Castle. She stood in front of the door and slowly pushed it open a crack, then observed from the outside before going in.
The solid wooden door was pushed open heavily, quietly without making any creaking sound. Ruan walked in quietly and closed the door.
The first floor was large and dark, and empty. Apart from the flickering flames next to the stove, Ruan Jiyan could not see a single moving object. There were a few spider webs hanging in the corners of the walls, and there were footprints on the ground. It really didn't look like anyone lived there.
She walked towards the stairs and gradually heard some sounds, as if someone was talking and a woman was crying.
