Upon seeing the bizarre situation before them, the players in front of the screen changed their expressions.

It's not because the scene was particularly terrifying or frightening.

Instead

Too real!

So much so that it's hard to look at!

The film uses real-time recording throughout, which subconsciously immerses players in the experience.

Even if they knew in their hearts that it was fake, the realistic visual experience created an illusion in their brains at that moment.

Although I quickly realized it was a fake video, I still felt a strange sense of relief.

When the green-painted door in the video was knocked on.

The players' feelings, which were somewhere between reality and illusion, were instantly ignited.

Therefore, his face turned deathly pale.

real.

So realistic!

In a regular video, if a Knock scene appeared, players would just grin and scoff.

The third-person shooting technique allows them to view the characters in the film from the perspective of onlookers.

Even knowing how dangerous it was, it was just a close call.

But the format of this live recording is different.

It amplifies the 'danger,' making the players watching the video feel just as vulnerable and insecure as the protagonists in the recording.

This makes them no longer just narrowly escape danger, but rather show them facing fear alongside the protagonist, experiencing both thrills and dangers!

In the film, the Knock Knock came suddenly, and there were no sound effects to enhance the atmosphere.

Some players were caught off guard and startled.

The more timid ones screamed "Holy crap!"

In the video, the man in the orange shirt was startled, just like the player in front of the screen.

[Someone's inside?!?]

Almost immediately after he finished speaking, the armed soldiers who had been on guard on both sides rushed over and squeezed into the camera's view.

A snapping sound followed.

Several submachine guns were all aimed at the green-painted door.

They seemed poised to open fire without hesitation the moment the door was opened.

This also demonstrates the skill level of these armed soldiers.

They formed ranks instinctively without even needing their captain's command.

Although players can only see their formation through that small area of the screen.

But in my mind, the tense, crowded, and fraught situation at the scene had already been automatically filled in.

The Orange-Clad Man was stunned, then he seemed to understand something and reacted.

[Shit! Shit! Are you hiding something from me?! What was that Knock just now?!]

[The way you're acting proves there's absolutely no human inside! Or even a normal human! Damn it! ■ Doctor!? Say something! What exactly are you researching!? An unknown anomaly!? I knew I was right! ■ Doctor! I'm not one of those useless D-Class Personnel! I'm a scientist too! I need to know its characteristics! ■ Doctor, did you hear me!? Tell me! Tell me now!!]

The Orange-Clad Man screamed in terror, but all he got in return was violence from the armed men!

[Shut up!]

Pu——

A loud bang.

In the footage, the Orange-Clad Man is struck hard with the butt of a rifle by a fully armed soldier, causing him to lose his balance and fall backward to the ground.

It also bumped into the table where the camera was placed, causing the lens to shake violently.

Soon, amidst the static of the Walkie-Talkie, another deep male voice rang out from outside the player's view.

[Command Room! This is Special Task Force Zeta-9 Mole! 3 seconds ago, a strange Knock Knock was heard inside W-FBC-0087! It lasted approximately 3 seconds and consisted of 6 knocks! The area is now on alert. Please provide further instructions!]

[No, everything is normal on site. The Knock Knock has stopped, and there's no sign that the door has been opened from the inside. All team members are on high alert, but if necessary, the Digging Plan will be executed!]

[Clear!]

This conversation left the players a little confused.

Isn't that a bit too technical?

I initially thought these gunmen were just background figures who would be killed off.

Surprisingly, it's actually quite well-made, and even has lines!

The report was presented in a very formal and professional manner, making it seem quite convincing!

Moreover, their movements and postures were perfectly synchronized, from assembling to pulling the safety to raising their guns, all done in one smooth motion with almost no unnecessary movements.

As a result, what players see is a well-trained military discipline!

At this moment, the same voice that had given the report earlier sounded again.

[Thermal imaging scan! Quick! Immediately confirm if there is life behind the door!]

Immediately, a subordinate soldier stepped forward.

In the footage, players see him holding an unidentifiable device against the door.

A few seconds later, I took it off and examined it.

Then, stand up straight and report loudly.

[Report! No heat source behind the door indicating maximum power!]

[Switch to acoustic scan, quick!]

[Receive!]

The agent immediately retreated out of the players' view and began searching for something.

The clanging and clattering sounds indicated that they had many of these tools.

Soon, the agent returned to the camera with another oddly shaped device.

Then he carefully scanned the four corners of the door and the area in the very center before he began his report.

[Report! According to the wavelength display, there are no obstructions behind the door. However, the returned signal doesn't show much fluctuation; a large amount of sound waves are still propagating without feedback, consistent with the report regarding the Staircase.]

[Excellent! Flashbang ready!]

After he finished speaking, the leader, who appeared to be the captain, immediately appeared in the camera's view.

Immediately, two team members stepped forward.

One person held a flashbang, while the other placed their hand on the doorknob.

then

[2]

[1!]

The green-painted door was suddenly pulled open a crack!

Almost immediately, another soldier pulled the pin on his flashbang and threw it in!

Then, they slammed the door shut, and the two of them pressed it against the door, as if to prevent something from happening.

The whole process was completed in the blink of an eye.

The players watching on the screen were stunned.

this.

That's way too much!

It's just knocking on the door, is it really necessary to go to such lengths?

It involved both thermal imaging scanning and acoustic detection.

Is it not enough that it's all over? Do you have to throw a flashbang in too?

this.

Okay, that's professional enough!

The scene before them showed the players what true training looks like.

The soldiers' cautious demeanor made it impossible to imagine what they would do next.

For players watching the video, all they can think of is opening the green door, then spraying bullets everywhere, and that's it.

There's absolutely no need for all that trouble!

However, upon reflection, the players realized that the group's actions were actually quite reasonable.

For the people in the film, what is happening before their eyes is an unknown and bizarre event.

They are not like the people in front of the screen, fearless of the consequences.

For them, one wrong move could mean death.

Moreover, this is something that is beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.

Naturally, they were extremely cautious and proceeded step by step.

Upon seeing this, players, besides exclaiming "Amazing!", were mostly filled with fear of the immense power of the Control Bureau.

If even a team like this is so cautious, then the tank and helicopter team that was wiped out in the game Dark Forest must be even more so.

At the same time, it was unexpected that such a strange thing would happen from an anomaly.

What other anomalies might there be?

Players haven't forgotten the message that was presented at the beginning of this video.

Dr. XX, who was in charge of the W-FBC-0087 anomaly, died 40 years later during an experiment on the W-FBC-0178 anomaly!

Therefore, players can hardly imagine what kind of bizarre abilities these mysterious anomalies possess!

In the video, the green-painted door closes.

The world fell silent once again.

The flashbang exploded without making a sound.

Or rather, there wasn't the slightest sound.

The green-painted door in front of me seemed to isolate me from everything, which was chilling.

Soon, the agents repeated the thermal imaging scan and acoustic detection.

The result obtained is consistent with the previous one.

This means there is no life behind the door.

Or rather, whatever was Knock earlier has now left.

So now

The experiment should continue.

In the footage, the soldier, presumably the team leader, turned his head away.

His eyes revealed a cold gaze as he looked at the camera.

His gaze was fixed on the player, as if he were looking at a dead man!

I got off work late, I've been working overtime every day lately. I haven't been able to update much, and I'm really anxious! But there's nothing I can do, I'm working hard so my boss can get me a Maserati next year! Anyway! Getting back into the swing of things, there'll be another chapter later. A friend taught me how to create a group today, it's below, hope you guys join!
