Half-Open Door

"I don't recall the original Prologue being this scary."

Xin Xin in her throat, hesitated on the spot, and dared not step forward.

She stared nervously at the half-open door and the eerie female voice making noises.

At this point, we can only seek help from our audience and fans.

"My dear readers, I've forgotten what the original Prologue was like. Does anyone remember? Does anyone recall this situation in the original?"

Xin Xin held up her Flashlight and shone it directly at the half-closed door, not daring to move it even slightly.

She was terrified that a pale face or a figure whose features she couldn't make out would emerge from the Pitch Black crack in the door.

Next to this door is the doctor's office, which is the room in the game menu.

But now, there was no door, only a cold wall.

Strange events!

Xin Xin didn't dare to think about why the room in the game menu was gone, but in the dark and oppressive environment, she chickened out and didn't dare to go forward.

Soon, viewers and fans in the live stream started sending comments.

"Did the original version have this? It's been over a year, I've completely forgotten about it."

"I just watched the process video. The original version didn't have this door opening sound; it's a new addition in the VR version."

"Good grief, at least the original Prologue wasn't that scary. The VR version goes this far right from the start? What's behind that door? Don't players' lives matter anymore?"

"The original room was just a makeshift bed, Radio, a storage cabinet, and that was it. Xin Xin explored it with the doctor's help before, and now there's a woman's voice inside. I'm afraid it might be a Female Ghost."

"Why did the production team use such a horror element in the Prologue? Isn't that off-putting? The door was half-open, and there were noises and a woman's voice inside."

Xin Xin glanced at the various speculations from the audience and fans, and shook her head.

Faced with various opinions, she decided to go in and find out for herself.

Although I'm feeling a bit panicked right now, it's just a game, and no matter how scary it is, it's still just a game.

Surely a game can't scare people to death, right?

With this thought in mind, Xin Xin took a deep breath, looked straight ahead, and slowly walked towards the half-closed door.

However, the first step had barely been taken when a sudden change occurred!

The wall, which was originally just covered with spores, suddenly turned moldy and black at a visible speed, as if it were old, decayed and dilapidated.

The dense clusters of spores on top began to fall one by one, rapidly growing larger on the ground and producing sticky filaments that resembled fleshy organs.

Xin Xin's eyes widened. She hadn't expected that in just a few breaths, the house would be completely transformed, from a fairly normal house into something resembling the flesh and blood inside a human body, making her feel nauseous and uncomfortable.

Especially those spores that have been stretched out, they seem to be alive, swelling continuously and undulating evenly.

This scene not only surprised Xin Xin, but even Governor Fu, who claimed to have seen it all in the live stream, exclaimed "My God!" on the spot.

The sound effects in the game "The House Transformation" change accordingly, from eerie to urgent, keeping the player's nerves constantly on edge.

Xin Xin shook her head, trying her best to ignore the bloody scene, and then carefully walked towards the half-open door.

She nudged him gently with a remote sensor, her steps cautious.

The surrounding flesh and blood throbbed violently, a truly horrifying sight.

The woman's voice kept calling out from inside the house, echoing in my ears.

The wooden planks underfoot creaked clearly with each step, a testament to their age and decay.

The Radio was making noise.

The man continued repeating the same thing.

Everything indicates that something extraordinary is about to happen.

The next second, just as Xin Xin was about to reach out and push open the door.

A terrifying, sharp shriek suddenly pierced the air.

Because it was so sudden, Xin Xin, who was already under a lot of tension, was so frightened that she screamed loudly and shouted, "I'm knocking!"

"What's that sound?! What is that sound?!"

Xin Xin quickly looked around, extremely vigilant.

He kept shining the light in his hand, trying to find the source of the strange sound.

But everything was normal, and nothing happened.

The room was still filled with blood and flesh, dark red and rotten.

The woman's voice disappeared inexplicably from the half-closed door beside her, leaving only the noise of Radio.

After the initial panic subsided, Xin Xin stood there, somewhat at a loss.

I breathed a sigh of relief only after a few seconds when I gradually calmed down.

"Sorry, everyone. I've always been vulnerable to scary indoor atmospheres, so I embarrassed myself. Please forgive me."

"But I can't do this anymore. I have to go in, otherwise the game won't progress."

Xin Xin spoke, she looked again at the half-open door in front of her.

He then took a deep breath, reached out, and slowly pushed the door open.

Squeak—yah—

The old, rustling sound slowly rose up.

The Flashlight shone in, illuminating the furnishings inside.

this.

It was a spacious room, and everything inside was normal.

There were no walls of flesh and blood outside, nor any creepy spores or mushrooms.

There wasn't even any furniture.

The room contained nothing but a floor lamp, a bookcase, and a Radio lying on the floor that kept making noise.

It's like an empty house that no one lives in.

After Xin Xin pushed open the door, she remained vigilant.

Although she had already manipulated the doctor to come in before, there were lights and illumination at that time, so she wasn't afraid.

But now, it looks incredibly strange no matter how you look at it.

Especially since this door opened by itself before, I always felt there was something wrong, it just hadn't come to light yet.

Xin Xin hesitated for a moment, and after confirming that there was nothing wrong with the room, she went in with Flashlight.

Thud—

With a loud bang, the door behind Xin Xin slammed shut, the noise so loud that it made her tremble instantly.

Something closed the door.

"What's going on!"

Xin Xin quickly turned around, shone the light in her hand, and the next second, her expression changed.

because

There was no door behind me.

It was just a cold wall.

Xin Xin was completely stunned.

Where's the door?

Was it made by a ghost?

Is this Ghost Wall?

Xin Xin panicked a little because she never expected that she would be trapped in this room.

So how do we get out now?

She didn't know, but her years of gaming experience told her that a puzzle needed to be solved.

With that in mind, Xin Xin decided to explore the empty room thoroughly.

However, the next second, a hoarse female voice, as if coming from Radio, came from behind.

[Open the door. Magnetic sound]

[Open the door. Magnetic sound]

[Open the door. Magnetic sound]

Xin Xin felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar, and was terrified.

She was now so scared that her whole body felt cold.

She didn't know what was behind her, and she dared not move, not even a single step.

The VR's realistic 3D surround sound effects brought out the hoarse bass behind her in an unparalleled way, giving Xin Xin the illusion that she was really in a game world, causing her legs to tremble slightly in reality.

Fortunately, the comments from the viewers in the live stream made her realize that it was all a game, and it was all fake.

The audience was also shocked.

"Holy crap, what's that thing behind me?!"

"Damn, it's new content that wasn't in the original version."

"It's just a Prologue's tutorial, why make such a fuss?"

"The voice is female, and it has Radio- like noise. Could it be Female Ghost?"

"I've played the original version, okay? The original version doesn't have ghosts, okay? It only has monsters."

"Hey upstairs, are you still comparing the original to the VR version? The new content in just the Prologue is already far superior to what the original can offer, okay?"

As Xin Xin watched the comments from her fans in the live stream, she swallowed hard.

Finally, she mustered her courage, closed her eyes, and quickly turned around.

At the same time, I was mentally prepared to be hit in the face by a Jump Scare.

However.

No loud, startling sound effect appeared.

It was precisely because there were no abnormalities for a long time that she couldn't help but open her eyes slightly.

The next second, she froze.
