game
[…Look, is that… moving? ]
Gao Xiaoyun had his back to the camera and was unaware of anything, but the head on the ground actually began to move slowly and click by click.
Lu Zibing didn't even finish his breath as it got stuck in his throat, and he stopped talking abruptly in the middle of his sentence.
"Sizzle."
With a slight sound, Gao Xiaoyun lit a match. The flame cast a shadow on the head, and it seemed as if countless entangled silk threads were moving in the shadow.
This is a long and suffocating shot, with the background music getting higher and higher, and sharper and sharper, as if someone was carrying a bucket of cold air and pouring it from Lu Zibing's neck to his heels, and the moment Gao Xiaoyun turned around -
The music exploded at the highest decibel and the head flew towards the screen!
“Ahhh!!——”
This pale and hideous face filled the entire screen. Under the cracked skin, countless black filaments were trembling, and even rushed out from the eye sockets where there were no eyeballs, like wriggling eyes, staring at Gao Xiaoyun!
"...Oh my god! Why is it moving?!" Screams came from the live broadcast room and on the screen. Lu Zibing's office chair was kicked out with a squeaking sound, and he sat down on the ground with weak legs.
Gao Xiaoyun screamed and waved the candle in her hand wildly, while the head had already climbed onto her collar and was trying to crawl towards her neck.
The horror continued. The clay statues on the ground seemed to be melting, and mud spots kept falling down. Those mud spots would even wriggle when they hit the ground.
The candlesticks were knocked over, the lights went out, and the surroundings fell into complete darkness.
“Ahhh! Help! Help, don’t come over here!—”
Gao Xiaoyun and the audience were deprived of their vision and were frightened to such an extent that they couldn't even scream. There were only various chaotic noises in the darkness.
She struggled to climb out, but at the same time, something black extended out from the cracks in the window and door like a tide, as if it was going to swallow up the nunnery entirely!
Lu Zibing's hands and feet went limp, he was so scared that he burst into tears, he rolled and crawled to the front of the computer, and turned off the video: "I won't watch it anymore, I won't watch it today even if you kill me!!"
The picture disappeared, but the horrible sound effects seemed to still be ringing in my ears. Lu Zibing leaned back on his chair in a panic and returned to the camera. His heartstrings relaxed, and he wiped his face and howled, "Which genius dream builder took this??... I don't want to watch it! Oh my god——"
[Thank you, host. I was also scared and cried! I won’t watch it anymore! ]
[Who found such a scary skit? ID “惊雁大家”, are you sure it’s not to scare everyone? ! ]
[So scary, so scary, I’m going to have a nightmare tonight, mom, save me (crying) (crying)]
The comments went crazy, with everyone shouting "Mom", and no one had time to pay attention to Lu Zibing's embarrassing moment.
After a while, someone finally laughed out loud.
[Although, the anchor made me laugh to death. He was bragging one second, and crying the next. I was originally screaming, but you made me laugh hahahaha! ]
【Lu Zibing: I have the toughest mouth of all.】
[Anchor, I told you long ago that people should not trust themselves too much (dog head). Lu Dadan changed his name to Lu Daseng from now on. ]
Lu Zibing: “…”
At this moment, he hadn't even wiped the tears off his face yet, so he had no way to defend himself.
Lu Zibing was filled with mixed emotions and gnashed his teeth: The dream builder is called Shang Jingyan, right? I will remember you from now on!
Lu Zibing was not the only one in the live broadcast room playing "Rouge Comb".
Main galaxy.
Because of the fan art, the traffic of Ao Qingxue's live broadcast room is much higher than before, but it is still at the bottom of the live broadcast platform she is on.
Many viewers came over from the Exile Galaxy just to enjoy the atmosphere of the live broadcast room.
She and most of the audience have been baptized by "Evil God", so when the head was cut off and the face was smashed, although they were scared, they did not turn off the video.
Just as the black net was about to seal the nunnery, something fell out of Gao Xiaoyun's sleeve in a flash.
It was the comb. It was very small, but it was like a divine weapon sent from heaven. In an instant, the head and the clay sculpture stopped moving, as if the pause button was pressed.
For a moment, the only sounds were the roar of wind and rain.
"Gu Lang? ... Gu Lang, is that you?" Gao Xiaoyun choked up and instinctively grabbed the comb and pointed it at the clay sculpture, "...Don't come over here! Don't come over here again!!"
No one answered.
[Are you safe? 】
[Looking at the progress bar, it's almost over, so it should be safe, otherwise the heroine wouldn't have died in the first episode (tears). ]
[Other people who are alone always meet their prince charming to save them, but here I am a lonely ghost in a temple in the wilderness! ]
"Rustle", insects and small animals crawled out from the clay sculpture fragments. Gao Xiaoyun staggered to his feet, not daring to look anymore. He curled up on the other side and relit the candle.
[Imagine that I spend a night with a monster in the wilderness, and there is a large cemetery outside... Kill me!! ]
[There is a wolf in front and a tiger behind.]
【Look at it more positively, at least it's not an evil god. 】
[What is inside the statue? There are black strands that move. Is it hair? ]
[Well, it makes sense to say that a comb can control hair... But I always feel that it's not that simple. Does the lover really have good intentions...]
[It doesn’t matter what we think. What matters is that after this, will the heroine trust her lover more or become suspicious of him? ]
A small lamp lit up in the dilapidated temple amidst the raging wind and rain.
She was destined to spend this night like this.
It turned out that Gao Xiaoyun trusted Gu Lang more. She seemed to regard the comb as her own amulet and kept holding it tightly.
The rain stopped the next morning. Around noon, the sound of servants searching was heard outside, and Gao Xiaoyun was taken away by her family. The fact that they were found after such a long time also proved how little the Gao family cared about their daughter.
There were no ghost lights, thick fog, or ghost walls outside. She did not put the comb back on the beam until she left.
In the last shot, Gao Xiaoyun got on the carriage and the wheels rolled away. The first episode ended.
Ao Qingxue's goosebumps hadn't gone away yet, so she rubbed the back of her hands and said, "The style is completely different from "Evil God"..."
In fact, the first episode contains very little information, and the protagonist does not encounter any real crisis, but it is very gloomy and has a kind of suppressed horror.
She looked through the comments and saw a strange one: [Alas, I wanted to know the sequel but I didn’t dare to watch it alone, so I looked for the live broadcast room on the Internet. Fortunately, you watched it. The person I follow was scared to tears.]
Ao Qingxue: "......? Pfft."
Who is so easily frightened?
"Director Shang, Director Shang, how is the feedback for the first episode?"
Tang Chuntao had just gotten off the Star Track Train and rushed to Shang Jingyan's residence. This was the first sentence she said when she opened the door.
She was even more nervous than Shang Jingyan herself. She had been a student before and this was her first time to perform in a formal short play.
Among the main actors in the first episode, only Tang Chuntao appeared, and she had to carry the entire episode on her own.
"Very good." Shang Jingyan showed her the comments, all of which said that she had found a newcomer who was very good at acting.
[The list of leading actors this time is finally not blank. Tang Chuntao is a newcomer, but her acting is totally out of character.]
【Director Shang is very good at selecting people. 】
[I empathize with Gao Xiaoyun 100%, her fear performance is so contagious...]
The data of "Rouge Comb" was very good when it was first broadcast, and it seemed to be soaring to the sky.
Tang Chuntao held her face and smiled foolishly, with Wu Rui and You Yao standing beside her.
This was the first time they had gathered together offline, one reason was for the wrap-up party, and the other was that today was Valentine's Day and was Shang Jingyan's birthday. She had officially become an adult in this life, and now it was also a celebration party for the enthusiastic response to the first episode of "Rouge Comb".
Several people walked on the street in the early morning, heading to the barbecue restaurant. Wu Rui sighed: "Passersby definitely don't know how scary the thing we just filmed is."
As they walked along, even You Yao, who had the most famous face among the people present, was not recognized. Shang Jingyan felt a little dazed: including her previous life, she had not had such a relaxing moment of having dinner with the crew for a long time.
There was a light snowfall in the sky and the night market was bustling with lights and bright lights.
Their dinner venue was a barbecue restaurant.
"Celebrate Director Shang's success!"
"Soaring into the sky! The popular Alpha! Wuhu——"
"It's past midnight. It's your coming-of-age ceremony. Director Yan can legally drink alcohol today!"
"Cheers! Come on, boss, give us some beer, big bottles!"
Plates of grilled meat and vegetables were on the ground, steam rising from the air. V059 is famous for its seafood, and the most famous of them is the blue crab, which is piled up like a small mountain beside each person.
Shang Jingyan always felt that "Evil God" was just a simple script to her, and "Rouge Comb", which she collaborated with actors, was her first directorial work in this world.
At this moment, she readily opened a bottle of wine and drank half of it in one gulp amid the applause of You Yao and Tang Chuntao.
"Sister Yan? Is it Sister Yan?"
As she put down her glass, a hesitant voice came from the side.
Shang Jingyan was slightly startled. He turned his head and looked at a few faces that he had some impression of. Four words emerged in his mind: bad friends.
The original body's group of drinking and eating friends just happened to meet here. Or maybe it wasn't that surprising, because the original body and these people were idle all day long and loved night markets and barbecue.
Several young men and women in exaggerated clothing and makeup looked at the people at the table and hesitated to approach. They were a little afraid to recognize Shang Jingyan, who had changed so much now.
Although they were also eating and drinking, Shang Jingyan and others all had an aura of "just finished doing serious work".
"What a coincidence, it's me." Shang Jingyan nodded.
She found that the original owner's memory was not touched at all. She remembered their names, but had no feelings for them.
Shang Jingyan actually suspected that the original body's idle life might be a disguise, and the specific reason was related to the organization of the True Object Group.
"We just finished eating and were about to go out when we saw you, Yanyan."
"Birthday cake...Oh yes, today is Sister Yan's birthday."
"Happy birthday!"
"Long time no see, haha..."
There were a few scattered greetings, and after a few words of congratulations, there was nothing else to say.
"Then we'll go first, you guys gather! Bye Sister Yan."
Shang Jingyan suddenly had a feeling that the trajectory of her and her original body had completely shifted at this moment.
"Everyone has a rebellious period when they are young, right?" You Yao raised his eyebrows at her with a smile.
After saying goodbye to his bad friends, Shang Jingyan looked at the blue-shell crab again with mixed feelings.
——She still remembered that her original body had eaten blue crabs with wine that night. Then she got drunk and hit her head on the coffee table and was on the verge of death when she came in.
As the name suggests, it is a blue crab with white meat inside and extremely delicious taste.
After drinking for ten minutes, Shang Jingyan felt very hot, so he temporarily excused himself and went out to get some fresh air.
She leaned against the wall in the alley next to the barbecue restaurant and lit a cigarette in the cold wind.
StarCraft has nicotine-free cigarettes that are not addictive and are only used to refresh the mind.
It can be said that this is a bit of an attempt to cover up one's own faults. If just refreshing is enough, then making it into candy will be the same, but they have to put it in a cigarette shell.
But this is very suitable to offset her psychological dependence on cigarettes.
Shang Jingyan took a sip. It tasted like mint.
She was only wearing a black I-shaped vest, and her cotton jacket was taken off to the point of hanging on her arm.
This body was the same as her previous life, with a tattoo of the god Pan on her right arm. Black patterns outlined an intricate and gorgeous human body with a goat's head, and the eyes were filled with green, with a texture like a sparkling gem.
The way she smoked under the light at the alley entrance was very eye-catching. Not far away, two passers-by stopped and looked at her quietly.
"……Yes or no?……"
"The ages don't match..."
"… How embarrassing it is to admit your mistake!…"
The night wind brought the whispers. Shang Jingyan listened for a while and asked, "Are you talking about the police officer in "After Marrying the Evil God"? "
"Ah... yes, yes!" The two girls were a little embarrassed when their discussion was heard, but soon became excited again, "So, are you, sister?"
Shang Jingyan thought to herself that based on your physical age, maybe I should call you sister.
——It is really sad that the director who made the 18+ or even 20+ horror movies just came of age tonight.
She didn't say yes or no, she just put out her cigarette and asked with a smile: "What do you think of the movie "Evil God"?"
"Good! Very good!" The little girl's cheeks blushed slightly under her gaze, and she diverted her attention and forgot to ask about the actors. "We are actually all new fans of the dream builder Director Shang... By the way, sister, if you are also a fan, would you like to follow our fan site?"
Shang Jingyan: “?”
She looked down at the screen the little girl showed and found that she actually had her own fan site, called "Panic Personal Site", with a Q-version black goat as her avatar.
The status of interstellar dream builders is indeed no different from that of celebrities, or even higher.
There is not much content in it now, only four basic information: her name, gender, ID, and birthday.
"Director Shang is so mysterious, he hasn't shown up yet." The little girl nags, "Today is Director Shang's birthday! Haha, she is such a dream builder, but her birthday is such a romantic and sweet day."
"Yes, what a coincidence." Shang Jingyan smiled slightly.
February 14th is Valentine's Day in the West, and it's the same here.
But she prefers to introduce her birthday to others like this: it is the release date of her favorite horror movie "The Silence of the Lambs".
She had mentioned this in many interviews in her previous life, and her fans all knew it. No one here knew those classic films, but the expressions of these audiences when they looked at her were the same admiration and love.
"I've followed it." Shang Jingyan tapped his finger twice on the laptop and followed his fan page with his secondary account. "Director Shang has a new drama, Rouge Comb, starting to air tonight. Have you watched it?"
"Ah! We didn't notice it while shopping." The little girl exclaimed and quickly turned to the homepage, "Really? I've been waiting for this preview for a long time..."
Shang Jingyan blinked and smiled, "Remember to watch it."
After saying goodbye to his fans, perhaps because of the alcohol, Shang Jingyan was a little distracted during the second half of the party.
He hadn't fully recovered from his syringomyelia yet, so he didn't drink and was the most sober person present; Tang Chuntao had already started to act crazy while drunk, singing love songs while hugging a telephone pole.
After getting drunk, You Yao became unexpectedly taciturn, and his expression even looked like a cool guy.
After sending Wu Rui and Tang Chuntao to the hotel, Shang Jingyan returned to his own residence.
She didn't turn on the light. After washing her face at the sink, she leaned on her arms and looked at herself in the mirror quietly.
The girl had long curly silver-gray hair, fair skin, a high nose bridge, thin and rosy lips. She had a sharp and refined neutral look, and her dark green eyes flickered in the neon lights outside the window.
The original owner's facial features were actually almost exactly the same as hers, but he was much younger than her.
Sometimes Shang Jingyan would think that she had returned to her rebellious high school days, with dyed hair white and wearing green contact lenses.
She returned to the living room and sat in the dark for a while, casually downloading a "Universal Language Dictionary" onto her computer.
Leng Bai's fingertips slid down, touched the "K" part, and found the word "horror".
Example: "Breaking up with her is the most horrible thing in the world."
There is nothing wrong with this sentence, but everything seems to imply something, as if there is only one option: love.
After Shang Jingyan traveled through time, he often felt that this world was unreal, as if he would wake up in the next moment and felt that it was all a dream.
Is this really possible?
Everything is normal, the only abnormality is the lack of horror style, and other dark styles are also greatly reduced.
It is human nature to seek excitement. Humans are born with memories of fear. How come no one had ever thought of horror movies before her?
It is this point that makes her feel that the world is illogical. Is it because the audience psychology is different?
...But tonight's episode told her that her audience in this world was no different from her previous life. They would scream and go crazy for her works.
So, are the “normal” places in this world really normal?
X71 asked in a low voice: [Yanyan, are you worried? ]
It followed the others and called out "Yanyan" instead of "you".
Shang Jingyan didn't say anything.
The light from the screen shone on her face, outlining a stern profile.
After a while, she shook her head: [Nothing.]
The screen went dark. The living room fell into darkness.
The next day.
Lu Zibing didn't expect that not only would he lose face in the live broadcast room, but there would be a follow-up.
He was too frightened last night and didn't dare to go to sleep alone, so he played games in the live broadcast room all night.
They are all sweet love games, and it is Valentine's Day, so every dream builder is doing activities.
However, due to the trauma caused by "Rouge Comb", he suffers from PTSD whenever he sees ancient handsome men and beautiful women. Although he finally chooses modern love, he is still suspicious and always has hallucinations that there is something wrong with the gifts given by the male protagonist.
He tossed and turned like this until dawn, when he finally couldn't hold on any longer and went to sleep.
Unexpectedly, when he woke up at noon, he saw his name on the Gamma Galaxy Entertainment Hot Search List!
——#Lu Zibing was scared to tears#. Not only that, it also rushed directly into the top 50, followed by a string of related entries: #Lu Dashun##Rouge Comb##Don't be tough in horror movies#……
It stands out among the sweet pink bubble entries.
Clicking on it will take you to the screen recording of his live broadcast. The person who edited the video edited his arrogant words and crying together, which was very comedic and caused a lot of laughter.
Lu Zibing: “…………”
Be a human being and give me such a big gift at noon on Valentine's Day!
[I almost laughed to death, who is this anchor? Too funny, pay attention. ]
[What kind of skit is so scary that it scares people like this? ]
[I'm curious! Are there dream builders in the world who specialize in scaring people? I've never heard of them! ]
The trending search fermented for a while, and the amusement park video where he first became famous was also dug out and posted together for comparison.
[Ahahahaha, I was just saying why he looks familiar to me, he is the most daring tourist back then! ]
[Being able to scare such a courageous anchor into tears, I am even more curious about "Rouge Comb"...]
[It’s even funnier when you watch them together hahaha! ]
[My anchor has been doing daring challenge videos for three years, and ended up on the hot search because he was scared to tears (lighting candles).]
[The previous one is so wicked. Aren’t you letting the people of the whole universe see our anchor embarrass himself? (dog head).]
[We can’t just let our fans and anchors suffer, let’s all watch “Rouge Comb” together! It’s so good, I’m not lying to you! ]
Lu Zibing was so angry that he even thought about doing another live broadcast to challenge himself to watch "Evil God" to clear his reputation.
After a while of laughter, the excitement will eventually pass.
Unexpectedly, a post at noon brought the matter to a climax again.
Jingyan All v: [Just woke up, someone was really scared and cried? #Lu Zibing was scared and cried#]
The accompanying picture is a smudged emoji from the last star calendar, a mean sparrow lowering its head to look at another sparrow's face, with the text:
No way, are you really crying?
Lu Zibing: “…………”
Mom! Why is this dream builder so bad? ? I want to complain to her!
V059.
【Ahahahaha, I'm laughing so hard that I can't breathe.】
[So mean and cute, is this the character of Director Shang?! I thought she was very cool! ]
[Predict the next hot search: #Lu Zibing really cried? ##Shang Jingyan Maque Expression#]
Shang Jingyan's comment section has become a sea of joy, with many IPs from the Gamma Galaxy coming over to watch the fun.
[Complete the mission "Make 10 audiences shed tears of emotion for your work" and the heart rate reward will be doubled by 1.5 times.]
[Current total heart rate value: 41,000.]
The system window was popping up with a ding-dong sound. Shang Jingyan yawned, his brain still not quite clear from the hangover.
The system changed its address back to "you" and did not mention her inexplicable solemnity last night.
Shang Jingyan knew just by looking at the heartbeat value that his popularity had increased again.
She had become a little famous before, but it was basically only within the scope of the Changqingqing website, and the number of viewers willing to follow her was only in the tens of thousands.
Looking at the entire federation, with a population of tens of billions, if she were to introduce herself, she could probably only say that she is "an invisible person from a remote, bumpkin galaxy."
This was her first time to appear on the hot search list for a galaxy, even though it was the distant Gamma Galaxy.
Of course, if she only wanted to eat and wait for death, Shang Jingyan could now rely on her audience base to lie down. Her ambition and debts determined that she would not stop.
[When will the second episode be released? I can’t wait to watch it! ]
【Cooperation...Signing a contract...】
[Confession! Your style is very special, please stick to it...]
There are all kinds of information gathered in the background, and the little red dot never stops appearing.
The most frequently asked question by the audience was the update frequency of Rouge Comb, while others asked whether she had any intention to sign a contract and whether she was short of funds.
Shang Jingyan is really lacking in something.
Previously, she had rented a single space on the Internet, and she was so stubborn that she created "Evil God" by herself. She could stay there for a day for ten star coins.
However, the price of the Dream Space, which includes multi-person performance capabilities, is surprisingly high, and is charged by the hour. After the filming of "Rouge Comb" was completed, the two million in the pocket was already empty.
Without a buyout from investors, the short drama would have been very slow to recover its profits solely from audience purchases and tips. Fortunately, she had another plan and thought of a way to make money on her own during the filming.
——She took a break from her busy schedule and made a game.
No matter in which world, games are always a money-making tool. This is usually the biggest source of income for a dream builder.
She edited her status and posted the following message to tease Lu Zibing:
["Rouge Comb" is updated on time every Saturday at midnight, welcome to follow; in addition, the horror plot holographic game "Teaching Building No. 18" will be released soon, don't miss it if you pass by^_^]
Ao Qingxue was originally bored and was staring at Shang Jingyan's homepage to refresh it, but she didn't expect that there would actually be a message.
"Update weekly, that's great... and there's also a game!" She blurted out in surprise, "Could it be that they made it during the filming of Rouge Comb?"
What a vigorous energy. Also, how high is Director Shang's mental strength? The speed of producing works is simply the best among dream builders.
For an audience like her, the more works the better.
During the time that he was following the guidance of the Taoist priest, Ao Qingxue's mental strength had recovered significantly. The green sapling in his mental image had grown to half a person's height.
She is an exception. Among the current audience, there are actually not many who fall in love at first sight like her and become loyal fans who produce fan fiction.
It is a recognized fact that the deeper the audience's emotions are in the dream builder's work, the better the therapeutic effect will be.
Ao Qingxue excitedly turned on the camera and started broadcasting. The commentator asked: [Haha, was the anchor blown away by Director Shang’s new developments? Me too!]
"Director Shang has released a game, shouldn't I support it right away?"
As she spoke, she checked the game introduction, but this time Director Shang did not release a trailer, so it seemed that the game was just a test.
"Teaching Building No. 18", tags: campus, ghost story, horror, thriller, light reasoning.
Introduction: The seemingly peaceful campus hides unknown secrets. Across time and space, facing similar situations, can you make the right choice and find the truth of the year?
"Strange Talk" is another new label that I have never seen before.
"Light mystery" is an already unpopular label. There are also detective and criminal investigation works in StarCraft, but they often give the protagonist a lover, such as love-hate relationship, walking side by side, strong and powerful...
They also try to avoid particularly bloody and horrifying crime scenes so as not to scare the audience.
As for the reasoning games, they focus on mechanisms and logic and are not as scary as those produced by Director Shang.
Judging from the introduction, this game seems to have elements of time travel.
The post only showed some art collections, and then provided a reservation code entrance.
Ao Qingxue clicked on the link and found that the background image of the reservation entrance was in the format of a yellowed old photo.
Inside was the main entrance of a middle school from the last star calendar era. A line of dark red words was engraved on the gray marble: "Baishui County No. 2 Middle School."
There is a countdown to the server opening right above the picture: There are [2 days, 23 hours and 55 minutes] left until school starts.
The comments were unclear and started a discussion out of curiosity:
[What other scary things can happen in school? I'll make an appointment to see one. ]
[The most terrible thing I can think of is failing math...]
[I laughed my ass off. That countdown is really scary. It’s like I’m back to the night when I was catching up on homework before school started (dog head).]
Ao Qingxue went back to look at the album, but couldn't see anything special. There were dilapidated teaching buildings, a playground cracked and overgrown with weeds under the setting sun, students in blue and white school uniforms, etc., which were just ordinary school performances.
But she trusted Shang Jingyan and clicked [Buy Reservation] without hesitation.
The ID card for entering the holographic game can be 3D printed directly in the holographic warehouse after booking. Dream builders often take advantage of this and make some small designs and easter eggs on the ID card, which is very interesting.
Ao Qingxue pulled out her ID card and examined it carefully: "It's quite special... Is this an invitation letter for taking up a new position?"
It was quite simple, with a white envelope on the outside and a crooked stamp on it. After opening it, there was a red letterhead inside, which looked very old, and the contents were handwritten in black ink:
Dear Ms. [Blue Snow]:
Hello!
I am pleased to inform you that you have passed the written test and interview and have been officially hired as the principal of Baishui County No. 2 Middle School. Please bring this invitation letter to our school on July 30, 2123.
Here is what you need to read before you start your job:
Principal's Handbook
History of Baishui County No. 2 Middle School
Wish you a smooth journey! Baishui County No. 2 Middle School welcomes you to join us.
Respectfully submitted by all teachers and students of Baishui County No.2 Middle School
After being ridiculed on Valentine's Day, Lu Zibing was so angry that he shut himself off for three days to watch Shang Jingyan's works.
He watched it by himself, without any comments accompanying him.
Although I went through a series of glorious things along the way, such as not daring to go to the toilet in the dark, having to keep the lights on in the middle of the night, and sleeping in the quilt without daring to stick my head out, I still finished watching it in the end.
And I posted a screenshot to check in: [I have watched the first episodes of "After Marrying the Evil God" and "Rouge Comb" and I didn't cry! ]
Soon, the top comment was: [There is a stubborn person here, you don’t care? @惊雁所有]
Lu Zibing thought that he was scared and cried last time only because he underestimated the enemy and was not prepared. If it happens again, he will be able to do it calmly.
As the saying goes, it is human nature to be a servile person. After making the bold statement "I will never watch it again" in the last episode, Lu Zibing's heart began to itch again.
Scary, but exciting.
Horrible, but wonderful.
This is the fatal attraction of horror works to humans.
After he punched in, he happened to come across the news about Building 18. He quickly glanced through the gallery and introduction, and added the item to his cart after less than three seconds of thought.
It is better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early. The game will be launched in an hour. Lu Zibing turned on the camera and started the live broadcast.
[Hey, who is here? It turns out to be our Lu Daseng (dog head). ]
[Host, hahahaha, why did you change the name of your live broadcast room to "The most daring on the entire Star Network, challenging "Building 18" to avenge the previous shame"? ]
[It’s so funny, be careful to redeem yourself, be careful of the black history! 】
The server is about to be launched, and the game can be logged in in advance. Lu Zibing lay in the holographic chamber and closed his eyes. When he opened his eyes again, he was already in the game.
V059, Shang Jingyan also joined the game.
She wasn't here to play. After all, it was her first time and she wasn't familiar with the business. She had to act as an online GM and patch any bugs whenever they occurred.
She could see that about two thousand players had entered the landing point, and some were broadcasting live, with more or less catchy headlines saying things like "I don't believe the campus we are most familiar with can create a horror effect."
Shang Jingyan smiled amusedly.
X71: [……]
Host, your expression is so scary!
Campus, this is an enduring popular theme.
During the production process, Shang Jingyan looked for a lot of campus works from this world to read. Not surprisingly, he found that when he read them, he always thought of the campus youth novels from his previous life.
It seems that no matter what time it is, the feelings of boys and girls are the same.
The campus is also a classic setting in horror stories. Shang Jingyan can name a dozen horror movies with it as the theme with his eyes closed.
Due to the closed nature and unique social characteristics of the campus, it is easy for directors to create a horror effect.
"Is this from the anchor named Lu Zibing?" Shang Jingyan spotted a spot of light and touched his chin, "...Wow, you are really brave."
——Among these two thousand people, only less than ten chose the most difficult mode right from the start, and one of them was Lu Zibing.
Lu Zibing was completely unaware of the gaze from the game creator. The player's login location was the same as the background image of the official website, which was the school gate of "Baishui County No. 2 Middle School."
He looked down at the optical computer bracelet on his wrist - after entering the holographic game, the live broadcast barrage interface shrunk here.
Lu Zibing's consciousness called out to the settings interface, and a window popped up with options.
Currently, there are generally two options for RPG story-based games on the market. One is that the player directly "transforms" into the protagonist, and the other is that the player does not need to cooperate with the performance, but only needs to follow behind the protagonist. When encountering a dialogue that needs to be said, the protagonist will say it himself.
Lu Zibing thought he was skilled and courageous, so he chose the first option.
The light flickered, and his clothes changed. Lu Zibing touched his face and long hair: "Who am I? Oh, yes, the heroine is a principal, and she is going to work in a school."
The countdown above my head slowly ticked away: three minutes, one minute, ten seconds...
Zero o'clock.
[Ding Dong] A hollow sound was heard, and a mechanical female voice came from the sky: [Please select your game mode. ]
[Normal mode: In this mode, the operation requirements are simple, the monsters have a low desire to attack, and are easy to escape. Overly bloody and distorted scenes will be mosaiced.]
[Intermediate Mode: In this mode, the operation and monster settings are the same as in the normal mode, and there is no mosaic in the whole scene. ]
[Hell Mode: This mode requires difficult operation, the monster attack mode is fully open, and there is no mosaic in the whole scene. Players please consider carefully! ]
The last seven words were bold and red. Lu Zibing was a little scared, but still said stubbornly: "Is it that exaggerated? Just choose Hell Mode! Sisters and brothers, watch me pass it."
After clicking confirm, the next second, a scene appeared in front of Lu Zibing's eyes, and the game explained the background to him in the form of memories.
It was a shaky shot, and it seemed that a woman was holding the handle and talking on the phone on a bus.
She looked to be in her thirties or forties, with short black hair. She wore a gray tweed windbreaker, a gray-pink scarf, and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. She looked intelligent and capable.
——That is what Lu Zibing looks like now.
The heroine of "Building No. 18" has a name, and the subtitles next to it appear in a slender Song Dynasty font: Langzhu.
Langzhu works in the education industry. This time he was transferred to the No. 2 Middle School to serve as the principal. The original principal of the No. 2 Middle School resigned some time ago.
Rumor has it that the feng shui of No. 2 Middle School is very strange and that all the leaders don’t stay in office for long. Langzhu also received a call from a friend on the way, advising her not to come.
"Feng Shui?" Lu Zibing chewed on this new word. "Is this the dialect of some galaxy? What does it mean?"
I don’t even know about the barrage.
"You know, I don't believe in these things." Langzhu said helplessly to her friend, "...Okay, okay, I will take care of myself, don't worry about me."
Her inner monologue sounded: [In order to understand the past, I came to this middle school...]
"...That means I came here for another purpose. It should be the sentence in the introduction, 'Can you make the right choice and find the truth of that year?'"
Langzhu got out of the car, the world started spinning, Lu Zibing's perspective overlapped with hers, and the game officially began.
The surrounding scenery seemed to suddenly come alive, and he felt "down to earth".
"Beep, beep", the bus behind him drove away. He took a step forward and saw the school gate in front of him. It was dusk and his shadow was very long on the ground.
The shadows of the trees swayed, and wild cats and birds passed by from time to time.
The evening breeze was blowing, and there seemed to be the fragrance of wild flowers in the nose. The five senses were so realistic that Lu Zibing was surprised: "Director Shang is so strong even when he made a game for the first time..."
[Act 1: Introduction·Taking office.]
[School starts in two days. You arrive at school early and decide to explore the campus first to get familiar with your future workplace.]
Lu Zibing discovered that Director Shang seemed to be very good at the background of the previous star calendar, and this time's game was no exception.
He showed the invitation to the guard and explained his purpose. With a creak, the rusty iron door opened.
The panel prompts that the currently unlocked locations are Buildings 1 to 3, the playground, and the cafeteria. Lu Zibing observed with the naked eye and could not see any incongruity, as if he had really traveled to the last star calendar.
"Where should I go first? The principal's office is in Building No. 3. I'll go to the office first." He said to himself.
[You chose the office. You remembered that the junior high school was also in Building 3. Due to the lack of funds in No. 2 Middle School, you also served as a math teacher for Class 3 (4).]
[Therefore, you decided to get the roster of Class 4 and get familiar with the names of your classmates before school starts.]
Now the game has just begun. Lu Zibing has no idea what the main storyline is, nor does he know what the heroine means by "having a purpose". He is full of interest in exploring.
The school had not started yet, and there were no students on campus. Building 3 had no elevator, and the entrance was just a long corridor.
"Why is it so dark...is there a light?"
The layout of the dilapidated corridor is poorly designed. The light is blocked by the teaching building, and the glass in the corridor is grainy, which absorbs some of the light.
Lu Zibing fumbled for a long time and finally found the switch. When he turned it on, the light made a "crackling" sound of poor contact. When the light came on, he seemed to hear the sound of small animals and reptiles being scared away.
The sense of immersion in holographic games is much stronger than that in movies. He prides himself on being brave, but he still feels a little scared while walking around.
There was a breeze blowing through the corridor, and it was extremely cold.
[…I’m already starting to get scared. I didn’t know the school was so spooky before the semester started!]
[What a crappy school! The lights in the corridor flicker on and off. I need to report it!]
[Hahaha, the host is rubbing his arms. Are you scared? Don’t be afraid. We are all here (waiting to see you make a fool of yourself).]
"Who's scared? I'm not scared, I'm just a little cold."
Lu Zibing said stubbornly. Junior 9 (4) class is on the third floor, but there is no elevator in the old building, so we can only climb the stairs.
The stairwell was at the end of the corridor. He walked through the dark, empty classrooms with his heart in his hands. When he turned the corner, he saw a person!
“Oh my god!!”
Lu Zibing was already traumatized by the sudden appearance of the person and almost sat down on the ground.
Looking closely, I found that it was a cleaner. He was carrying a bucket, wearing a blue cleaner's hat, and his uniform had faded from washing.
The bucket was dirty and the water was murky. Lu Zibing walked along the wall and muttered, "How can I mop the floor cleanly? Wait! I'll replace all of you when I take office."
I don’t know if it was an illusion, but the cleaner turned around and glared at him with a fierce look.
[Director Shang: We don’t have money, so we use it sparingly, but the AI of an NPC is very smart and can even glare at people.]
【This is what it means to spend every penny wisely! 】
[The anchor almost fell down just now. It was so funny. I wonder how long he will continue to show off.]
I finally climbed to the third floor, and nothing strange happened along the way.
The door with the words "Principal's Office" inscribed on it came into view, and next door was Class 4. The door of the classroom was ajar, as if it had been forgotten to be locked before the end of last semester.
Lu Zibing thought about it, then reached out and grasped the door handle of the office.
I think I wrote a wrong date before, I corrected it, and it is based on this chapter. I just realized it’s Valentine’s Day in real life after I finished writing, what a coincidence 233
Next two days before the clip, it will be updated at 0:00~
