War Paradise

Before the start of the action, he was given an hour of "free activities". Lin Chi walked forward along the streets of the 15th district, looking for the trial experience area he was interested in.

As a veteran player extensively involved in various games, here is a popular masterpiece that provides a trial experience. Naturally, Lin Chi has played it a long time ago. What he is looking for is not the familiar names, but the new ones that have just been released.

With the continuous expansion of the brain imaging game market, there are more and more new games of this type, although most of them are garbage to follow the trend, and even the door to making brain imaging games has not been touched. , But occasionally there will be reliable works like "War Paradise".

Lin Chi naturally didn’t want to miss the possible good works. He passed the experience zone of "New GT Racing" and "Half-Life 9", and then saw an unfamiliar name:

The devil's secret room.

"Horror game?"

Standing in front of the dilapidated wooden building, looking at the light from the second-floor window and the shaky shadows, Lin Chi stopped and opened the introduction page of this demo area to take a look:

Welcome to experience the suspense game "Devil's Chamber of Secrets" created by PULSE-STUDIO! Here is a trial play of the first half of the game, get ready and experience the most realistic dark adventure!

...

"PULSE-STUDIO?"

Seeing this name, Lin Chi always felt something was wrong. Did the name of the production team simply collide with the "Pulse Entertainment Company", or did the Pulse Entertainment Company hang up the game made by the vest?

"Ok……"

Looking up at the dilapidated house, the "joker" in yellow went to the wooden door with the red seal, Lin Chi put his hand on the virtual door, the scene in front of him suddenly went dark, and the original virtual body disappeared. , Appearing in the line of sight, is the bulletin board and some options:

"This game contains **** and violent content and is only available to users over 18 years of age. People with heart disease or epilepsy should not use it. The company is not responsible for the user's illness or other accidents during the game.

"The demo version does not provide custom character services for the time being. Now you can choose one of the two roles we have set, a man and a woman, and operate the preset characters to experience the plot of the trial part."

"Now, please enter your name and choose your own default role."

"Is there no gender restriction in this game?" Lin Chi narrowed his eyes.

Because the "sense of substitution" of brain imaging games is more than one grade higher than that of old-fashioned VR games. Generally speaking, in order to avoid the player's perception of himself in the real world after playing the game, it affects real life. In most brain imaging games, players can only choose characters with the same gender as their own, and things like **** numbers will not appear at all.

However, this "Devil's Chamber" does not seem to have such restrictions, that is to say...

"Of course, horror stories have to be experienced from a female perspective."

Thinking of this, Lin Chi did not hesitate to directly choose a female virtual character. The picture in front of him dimmed again, and then it turned completely black.

...

"what……"

When Lin Chi opened his eyes again, the dim picture still greeted him.

Underneath the body is a cold wooden bed, the ceiling above the head is illuminated by candlelight, showing a strange dark red. A candlestick is placed on the wooden table beside the bed, and also on the table, there is also a white notebook. .

"Ha...is it the standard routine of puzzle-solving games."

There was a slender female voice in Lin Chi's throat, she slowly got up from the bed, lifted the white cloth covering her body, and looked down at her body.

What catches the eye is the dirty white long skirt, with suspected blood stains hanging on the skirt, bruised ankles, and a pair of purple high heels on the feet.

"Are you going to sleep without taking off your shoes?"

Lin Chi used a female voice to complain, stood up and walked to the wooden table. Before opening the notebook, he used the light of the candlestick to observe the surroundings.

This small square room has no windows, only a red wooden door, and some weird patterns are engraved on the wooden wall. Upon closer inspection, it seems that they are all execution scenes.

On the wall on the left hand side, there is a picture of a man lying on the guillotine and beheaded, on the right is a woman walking on the gallows, and the wall facing the door is painted with two The man knelt on the ground, waiting for the execution of the shooting scene.

--What does it mean?

Lin Chi walked to the only door of the hut, tried to open that door, and immediately found that the door was locked. It seems that the clue that can make oneself leave this room should be in that notebook...

Thinking of this, Lin Chi also immediately picked up the notebook and sat on the bedside, turned to the first page by the flickering candlelight, and began to read the contents:

"My job is to collect corpses."

"To be honest, this job is very boring. Faced with these silent corpses every day, I also need to help those who look ugly to dress up, so that the family members will not feel too uncomfortable when they see their corpses... boring."

"But work is work after all, and I will work hard to complete it, at least before the contract expires."

"Recently, many people have died due to the plague. A large number of corpses have been transported here. The morgue is almost too much to fit. Many corpses are piled up in the passage, and even many corpses are placed in the restaurant. , Can’t you leave me some personal space?"

"But speaking of this, I heard that in the corpses of several death row prisoners recently sent, there are innocents. Wouldn't it be too pitiful? I hope the innocents can rest in peace..."

The content of the first page of the notes is over here.

Lin Chi wanted to try to read the content below, but found that the back pages were glued together with plasma and couldn't be opened at all. Even if they were to be torn apart by force, they would probably be torn apart several pages together, and the back pages would not be visible at all. content.

——So, the clue to the puzzle of the first room is the mural on the wall?

Realizing this, Lin Chi suddenly became interested. While observing the murals on the three walls of the house, he looked for other clues in the house.

The pictures on the wall only show the way these prisoners were executed, and did not write what crimes they committed. If you want to find the innocent, you obviously have to start elsewhere.

As expected, Lin Chi soon noticed that a yellowed letter paper had fallen on the floor by the door. He walked over to pick up the paper and saw it read:

"I'm going to die soon... why did it happen like this? I just peddled the antidote to the plague by the side of the road... because of this, they were going to kill me?"

"These disgusting executioners are still laughing. They said that I can choose my own way of death. This is the only free option for death row prisoners before they are executed. Should they be cut off by the guillotine, hanged on the gallows, or executed by a firearm? "

"My medicine is absolutely fine, although I haven't used it myself... after all, it has been tested on seriously ill patients. Two of them died, but more people survived! It was because those two people died. , That’s why I was framed by them as a murderer. But even if I don’t use the antidote on them, they cannot survive..."

"After using this drug, there will indeed be sequelae of continuous drooling, but the patient can get rid of the plague and usher in a new life!"

"There are two tomb robbers who chose to be shot. Now there are only two bullets on the firing squad, so I simply choose... well, even if I die here, I won't confess my guilt!"

The text in the key "selection" position was blurred by blood and could not be read. After reading the contents of the note, Lin Chi frowned slightly and fell into contemplation.

Judging from the content of the note, the guy who wrote the note should be an "innocent person", but the question is, is this person a man or a woman?

Now, the possibility that the two people shot to be innocent can be ruled out. The innocent should be one of the hanged woman and the beheaded man, but which one is it?

While thinking, Lin Chi stood in front of the wall on the left hand side and carefully observed the picture painted on the wooden wall. The man was lying on the guillotine and clenched his fists. The two beside him wore black caps, only two were exposed. The executioner of the eye is preparing to put down the guillotine.

The picture on the right side of the wall shows a woman being **** with a big five flowers and pushed onto the gallows. Her eyes have been covered by the cloth strips. The two executioners standing behind are preparing to put ropes on her. Those who are watching near the gallows The men showed excitement on their faces, as if they were expecting the execution of the death penalty.

——Which guy is the innocent?

Lin Chi glanced down at the note, carefully observed the two murals, and then suddenly noticed a detail:

"She's drooling?"

The woman who was about to be hanged on the wall on the right hand drooled from the corner of her mouth. Although it may also be caused by fear, combined with the description on the note that "the use of drugs will leave the sequelae of continuous drooling", the matter It becomes a little different.

——The person who wrote the note clearly stated that he has not used the antidote to the plague. In this way, it is naturally impossible for this person to suffer from the sequelae caused by the antidote, that is to say...

The innocent drug dealer is the man on the wall on the left who is about to be beheaded!

Thinking of this, Lin Chi also immediately stood in front of the left wall and reached out to stroke the wall. The moment his hand touched the man's head, there was a clear click in front of the wooden door.

"Ha, it seems that the novice tutorial is right."

Lin Chi laughed and opened the unlocked wooden door of the hut.

According to his many years of game experience, the difficulty of this kind of puzzle-solving game is naturally to be gradual. The puzzles at the beginning are very simple and allow players to practice their hands, while the more difficult content will be left behind.

Opening the wooden door and entering a gloomy corridor, the cold moonlight came in from the window, reflecting the walls of the house and the "people" sitting against the wall.

"this is……"

The corridor was filled with the pungent smell of antiseptic, and Lin Chi, with frowning brows, turned his eyes to those people who were still leaning against the wall with black bags on their heads.

There is no doubt that those guys are not living people, but already stiff corpses!

The corpse neatly leaning against the wall, with pale hands on the ground, looks like a frustrated person sitting on the street, but in any case, these poor guys who have been dead for some time are absolutely impossible. Stand up again...

——This is what the corpse collector calls "there is no place to store the corpse"?

Lin Chi returned to the house where he was "born" and started to read the following content by candlelight. After the door of the house was unlocked, the second page of this note could finally be opened, but the content going forward, Still "sealed" by blood:

"These corpses are all over the place, and I almost have no place to sleep! Fortunately, the **** who transported the corpses didn't throw the dead people into my bedroom..."

"However, it is no way to continue like this. It is said that there is no open space on the cemetery. A large number of the dead waiting to be buried cannot enter the soil, and their relatives have sent their bodies back here. If this continues, this building is fundamental. Unbearable! I can't put so many dead bodies here..."

"So, maybe we should think of other ways?"

"When I was traveling in the Crusader Castle, I heard some interesting rumors. It is said that there is a way to solve the troubles of these corpses. The book seems to be forgotten in the restaurant. I will read it if I have time. watch."

...

After reading the second page of the text, Lin Chi didn't say much, holding the notes left by the corpse collector, strode into the corridor full of corpses.

According to the prompts in the notes, now my "task goal" should be to go to the restaurant and find the book inside. Although the location of the restaurant is not known yet, in order to avoid being too complicated and difficult to develop, it is very likely that this kind of puzzle game will be made into an online game.

So now, as long as you walk along this passage, you may be able to reach the restaurant directly.

Mindful of this, Lin Chi speeded up his pace through the gloomy passage and passed the stiff corpses leaning against the wall. There was a whining wind outside the window, sounding like someone was wailing.

With high heels stepping on the wooden floor, making a crisp sound, Lin Chi strode across the corner of the corridor, into the other side of the L-shaped passage, and then suddenly stopped.

"..."

He saw a humanoid shadow flashing away from the end of the corridor, blocking the incoming moonlight for a short time.

Although the time is short, Lin Chi can be sure that he is not mistaken. Someone, or some "thing", passed by the end of the corridor just now.

"Is it possible that this game still has combat content?"

Thinking of this, Lin Chi looked down at his thin, bloodless hands. Under the moonlight, the hands of this character seemed to be translucent, and the blood vessels under the skin were all clearly visible.

Just looking at the thin appearance of this character, this game should be a pure puzzle game, not to mention that I didn't find any weapons. But... it might not be that simple.

When Lin Chi was thinking about it, a crisp sound suddenly came from behind him:

Snapped!
