Rules-based ghost talk game

"What's going on with this world?"

As the sun set, Chen An wandered around the familiar city for a whole day, and gradually found the "boundary of the world."

Three kilometers.

A three-kilometer radius centered on your home.

Once you exceed this range, whether you are walking, running, cycling, taking a car, or taking a taxi, you will be like a ghost hitting a wall, and you will inexplicably return to the position about 2.5 kilometers away in a trance.

My stomach was so hungry that I didn't even bother to eat all day.

Returning to the gate of the community, there is a middle school here. Looking at the crowds of people and the energetic students chasing each other, Chen An should have felt calm.

The premise is to put aside the dirty words spoken by those people after they left his sight.

It's like the most vicious side of people's hearts is exposed behind their backs.

Chen An walked to the small stall in front of the school. The stall owner was an uncle who was nearly forty years old. His pancakes and fruits always tasted good.

After touching his stomach, which had been growling all day, Chen An shook his head.

No matter what, you have to eat.

“Boss, let’s have some pancakes with mixed noodles, add an egg, a sirloin steak, a chicken fillet, a grilled sausage, a spicy stick, and an extra pancake. Add black pepper sauce and tomato sauce.

Salad dressing, mayonnaise, mayonnaise, not spicy, everything else.”

"Okay, thirty-four dollars."

Looking at the tired boss, Chen An silently took out his mobile phone and scanned the QR code to pay.

He took another look at the small balance left...forget it, he missed the smell of the doorstep too much.

Who knows what will happen next? In Lao Shizi's story world, there is not even food.

starving!

Soon, the fragrant pancakes were ready. Chen An held the plastic bag with both hands. The pancakes were still very hot separated by a layer of oil paper.

Chen An blew it and looked at the pancakes that were full of condiments, steaming, and had a complex and delicious smell.

Suddenly I feel like life is still full of hope.

At least you can have a hot and delicious bite.

Chen An took a big bite and chewed it quickly!

However, his faint smile and warm mouth suddenly froze.

His pupils shrank slightly and his mouth stopped.

Then, chew again.

Chew again!

He swallowed it quickly and looked straight at the pancake.

Again, take a bite!

no taste!

Still no taste!

It has all the texture it should have, but there is no taste at all!

It's like eating wax, it tastes like chewing wax!

Some tears suddenly welled up in Chen An's eyes.

He couldn't hold himself any longer.

This game of Lao Shizi, this world of Lao Shizi!

Compared with the horror and depression of the story world...the despair and the will that is constantly being illuminated.

But why.

This familiar real world...makes him feel even more confused now?

Chen An sniffed and slowly looked at the building where his home was.

As the sun sets, an orange-red halo shines on the roof of the building, hanging on the closer trees, casting shadows. The warm atmosphere around and the noisy curses behind create a weird tone.

"It's like..." Chen An smiled bitterly.

His eyes were full of sadness and hesitation.

"The moment I violated the bar's rules, was I already in a state of eternal doom?"

Chen An's eyes and nose were a little sore. He felt a little dizzy and his body was a little unsteady.

Looking at the ground, the shadow of his figure slowly lengthened with the setting sun.

He slowly clenched his fists.

The muscles at the corners of his mouth stretched, revealing a smile that was uglier than crying.

His eyes flickered a little, and his tone of voice was strange.

"Then... let's play..."

...

...

Back inside the building, the corridor was full of messes. The shoe racks at the door of Xiao Hutou and Sister Yijia's houses were knocked down. There were glass shards and some fragments of porcelain vases and the like all around.

Chen An's shoes clicked on the broken glass.

On the whole, it was very quiet. I don't know if they all went out or if there was a truce.

Pushing open the door, I looked at the very familiar room, the house I had lived in for many years.

Chen An took a breath, stuffed the last pancake in his hand, which tasted like wax, into his mouth, then dragged off his coat and hung it on the hanger at the door.

He took off his backpack, carried it with one hand, and walked towards the bedroom.

"What a loss." Chen An said to himself while chewing.

"I should add less stuff, it all tastes the same anyway."

Chen An was sitting on the bed, with a laptop on the desk in front of him and a mechanical keyboard in front of him.

In front, there is a dirty, very worn-out fat rabbit stuffed doll, and an ugly rabbit with an ape face. Although it looks like a Q-version cartoon style, it is also very ugly.

In the middle is the mountaineer's diary, which Brother Scar showed him before leaving, so he took it easily.

"Hello."

Chen An leaned down, put his elbows on his knees, and looked at the two rabbit dolls.

"What do you think I should do now?"

"Huh? You want me to see the mobile app?"

"You're right, I never dared to look at it before."

Chen An bared his teeth and smiled.

I'm really crazy.

However, I really haven’t bothered to look at that [rules-based ghost talk app].

Before, I was also confused and wanted to know what was going on in the real world.

Chen An turned on his phone, clicked on the app, and a message immediately popped up on it.

[Dear player, hello, congratulations on completing your first game. 】

[For your safety in the second game, please go to the highlight post within 7 days to browse helpful information. And claim the physical rewards you received after completing the first game.]

Chen An's eyes narrowed.

"Go to the essence post?"

He quickly turned on his computer and searched for "rules-based ghost story games".

The content inside is the same as before, only the rules exist.

The place below where the post should be is completely blank.

"How to get there?"

With a raised eyebrow, Chen An closed the prompt page on his phone.

On the home page, your own information comes into view.

[Player name: Chen An]

[Strange level: ordinary]

[Game cleared: 1 time]

[Story fragments: 0 pieces (1 piece to be collected)]

[Mutation enhancement: None.]

Achievements earned:

[The Nightmare of Dalin Mountain: Congratulations, in the story world of Dalin Mountain, you have successfully become the nightmare of the mountain god. Although I don’t know how you did it, you have left a fatal shadow on the entire mountain forest. 】

Achievement rewards: Foolish Clown, Trickster, Despair Singer, Wheel of Darkness, Black Tower (choose one medium from five mutation paths) (to be received)

...

"Wait?"

Chen An stared blankly at the content written in the achievement reward, with the corner of his mouth twitching.

Everything!

This amount of information is a bit large, right?

The path of mutation is the path of mutation and strengthening?

You know how to choose one of the five, just choose one of these five mutation paths.

But what is the medium?

With a medium, can I obtain mutation enhancement?

There is still something to be collected, where should I go to collect it?

"Chen Sheng, Chen Sheng..." Chen An looked at the path name and felt a little dumbfounded.

What on earth did you do after I was corrupted by the Smiling Rabbit!

The achievement "Dalin Mountain's Nightmare" has been unlocked.

He shook his head and continued to browse the information in the app.

However, apart from this main page, there is only one task page.

It says [Lost Climber] on it, and it's red, which probably means the level has been cleared.

The one below is gray: [It will be unlocked after 6:4:53:12.]

"It probably means six days, four hours, fifty-three minutes, twelve, eleven, seconds."

Well, simple and easy to understand.

Is it done once a week?

Chen An was stunned.

So...how should I go to the essence post to receive rewards?

I feel like there are a lot of things I don’t know in the highlights.

"Maybe there is something in this world that I haven't explored?"

I looked out the window and saw that it was already slightly dark.

The high tension in the previous story world and the bright inner world of this day made him mentally and physically exhausted.

"There are still more than six days, so go to bed first."

Chen An yawned and touched the heads of the fat rabbit and ugly rabbit puppets.

"Good night."

...

...

"Ya'er, I can't sleep."

Chen An had a depressed face. When he closed his eyes, all that came to his mind were the things in the story world, where are the essence posts, what are the mutation enhancements, etc.

never mind.

The corners of Chen An's mouth suddenly slowly rose.

"I can't sleep anyway...if...I write a novel based on my personal experience, will it be popular?"

Chen An has never forgotten that he is a writer of suspense, mystery and suspense novels (eighteen lines).

With a playful smile on his lips, Chen An turned on the computer and tapped his fingers crazily on the keyboard.

Even if you close your eyes, from breaking the bar rules, to entering the story world, to now...these memories are so profound!

Book title...

Well, let's just call it "Rules-based Monster Game".

"No matter how desperate life is, you have to learn to find fun for yourself..."

"You have to...live with a smile."
