This is

Password!

Upon hearing the number 6, Xin Xin understood its meaning almost immediately.

At this moment, viewers and fans in the live stream chat were saying that if they kept turning the knob on the eye, they would definitely hear the whole four-digit password.

That way, we can open the door to the living room where ' Mr. Jun ' is kept closed!

Seeing this, Xin Xin also recalled this scene from the original version.

She remembered that the four-digit password was spoken directly by the corpse on the Radio, not by the rotating eyes in the VR version.

Very good!

Now that you know what to do, just keep turning the eye knob!

The game continues in real-time calculation.

The protagonist continued turning the knob to the left without stopping.

Black, dirty blood immediately flowed from the woman's eye sockets.

It slid straight down my cheek and dripped onto the ground.

The mouth remained wide open, emitting a static sound like Radio, but the previous roar was gone.

[4]

The second number was uttered from the mouth.

[0]

A third number then appeared.

The pooling of blood in his eyes began to increase, trickling down.

[9]

After the last number was read out, there was a soft creaking sound.

The old door from where we came was now prominently displayed on the once cold wall.

At the same time, the two knob-shaped eyes suddenly popped out of their sockets and shook incessantly.

Then, a blood-stained spring pierced deep into the eye socket and embedded in the flesh.

At that moment, the tendons on the female corpse seemed to be torn off, and without support, she fell to the ground along with the body.

There were also specks of blood on the screen.

It looked as if it had splashed onto the protagonist's face.

However, because it happened so suddenly, neither the game's protagonist nor Xin Xin had time to react and were slightly startled by the scene.

Fortunately, she didn't scream, which allowed Xin Xin to pat her chest and calm her breathing.

"The mystery is solved! My little ones, I've solved it! The password is 6409, look! The door is out too! It was a close call, a close call indeed!"

Xin Xin finally breathed a sigh of relief, as if she had completed a stage of her mission.

I thought something really scary would happen here.

It turned out to be just a minor scare; thankfully, it wasn't a big problem.

The Prologue is just Prologue, like the original game. It's only for getting people familiar with the game; it won't start with anything too intense.

Having obtained the password, Xin Xin didn't linger and went straight past the female corpse to the door she had come from.

She wasn't feeling much joy at having solved the puzzle; on the contrary, she was a little nervous about the next steps.

In the original game, after obtaining the password, you were supposed to unlock Mr. Jun's door and kill him.

Then monsters will break down the door and attack, ending the Prologue.

Now, in the VR version, we'll soon be experiencing this from a first-person perspective.

Xin Xin swallowed hard, feeling somewhat nervous.

She reached out and slowly opened the door.

The next second, Xin Xin's eyes widened.

Outside the door, the original scene of blood and gore had disappeared, returning to its original cold and dark state.

There was no trace of crimson, nor any of the nauseating visual impact.

Everything has returned to normal.

Apart from the murmurs of ' Mr. Jun ' in the locked room.

Seeing this, Xin Xin breathed a sigh of relief again and walked out the door with confidence.

Then they rushed to the locked door.

At this moment, Mr. Jun kept whispering, "They're coming," which made Xin Xin frown.

Following the game's instructions, she pressed the button on the controller's joystick.

On the rusty, yellowed lock, the four-digit password 6409 was dialed.

Then

A soft click.

The lock is open.

The door opened.

At the same time, Mr. Jun's murmurs stopped.

Everything proceeded in an orderly manner.

Xin Xin stared at the half-closed door in front of her, the deep darkness inside making her tremble all over.

The ground was stained with blood and there were obvious drag marks.

She swallowed hard, pulled out a table leg, and with encouragement from the viewers in the live stream, reached out and pushed open the half-closed door, cautiously walking inside.

Thud—

With a loud bang, the door behind her slammed shut, startling Xin Xin so much that she trembled and screamed.

But then he realized it was a problem with the door, and he gasped for breath in panic, patting his chest.

The person inside the room fell silent.

"The door's closed, it's so dark. I'm going in. I hope there's no jump scaring."

Xin Xin mustered her courage, holding a flashlight in one hand and gripping the table leg with the other, and carefully made her way through the Pitch Black room.

The sound effects, which started slowly, suddenly became urgent.

This made Xin Xin's already tense mood even more flustered.

"I'm so scared, my little ones. I'm so scared."

The darkness in the room grew even more intense.

This made the Flashlight beam difficult to illuminate, as if it were being swallowed by an abyss, which was extremely eerie.

Before she knew it, cold sweat was streaming down Xin Xin's temples.

The eerie sound effects and oppressive environment made her almost drop the joystick.

Faced with the darkness in the room that seemed to swallow up all light, Xin Xin tried several times to escape from the room and gasped for breath in the living room.

But she held back, not for herself, but for the viewers and fans in the live stream!

until

[Help me]

A soft call echoed from the darkness of the room, lingering in Xin Xin's ears.

[Help me.]

The sound begins, and its echo lingers.

I don't want to die.

Her tone was tinged with tears, as if she was having some unbearable emotional distress.

I really don't want to die.

His voice began to tremble.

Xin Xin wiped the cold sweat from her forehead, turned on her unlit Flashlight, and followed the sound into the darkness.

[At the nearest point]

I don't want to die.

I want to go home.

They're coming.

Xin Xin followed the sound and walked on.

The Flashlight beam began to flicker.

The sound effects also became increasingly eerie.

The darkness grew ever deeper.

Xin Xin looked at the flashing Flashlight and started to panic.

But because it was a game, no matter how much she patted, it had no effect.

Soon, she arrived in front of a wall.

This indicates that she has reached the end of the room.

"No way out? What's going on? Which boss is it?"

Xin Xin looked around, but because of the darkness, she couldn't see anything.

If there's no road ahead, then you have no choice but to turn back.

"Did we take the wrong path? Or should we follow the sound again?"

Xin Xin frowned in thought, and just as she was about to turn around to look for the sound again, a loud bang came from behind her, startling Xin Xin into a scream.

She immediately turned around in a panic, only to see a scene that made her face change drastically.

because

That doctor

He appeared behind her without her noticing.

At the same time, he was squatting on the ground, holding a large machete, and was viciously chopping at a man.

That "clang" was the crisp sound of the cleaver, along with pieces of meat, striking the ground.

He slashed again and again, blood splattering everywhere, flesh flying everywhere.

He laughed maniacally, his face and body covered in crimson, and dark red pools of blood flowed on the ground.

The man, at his mercy, trembled slightly with each swing of the knife.

His eyes had long lost their luster, leaving only terror and a gaping mouth.

Xin Xin was stunned.

VR's ultra-realistic effects bring the slaughter performance before your eyes to life.

The scene was so realistic that she couldn't tell it was a game at all; she subconsciously felt that she was witnessing a murder!

Even the viewers and fans in the live stream were startled, causing the chat to stop scrolling.

until

The doctor's hand, which was wielding the scalpel, suddenly paused. He slowly turned his head, revealing a chilling smile on his blood-stained face.

At the same time, the mangled corpse beneath him suddenly turned its head, its mouth wide open, blood flowing from it, revealing an indescribable, eerie smile.

[Hehehe.]

[So how are you going to escape from here?]

Do you think you can manage this forest on your own?

You will be punished.

You will pay the price.

The screams and shrieks rang out again.

Immediately afterwards, the noise of Radio came from outside the door.

The doctor, holding a cleaver, suddenly stood up.

His glasses and face were covered in black blood.

He still wore that eerie smile, and slowly spoke.

[Did you hear that noise outside?]

They're here.

This is all your fault.

[Stay]

[Stay]

[Stay]

It was only then that Xin Xin realized what was happening.

She heard two light bulbs shatter the moment the protagonist switched roles and slammed the door to leave the room.

The entire house contained only two floor lamps. One was in the living room, and the other was in the room where the woman's body was hanging.

If the sound of those two light bulbs breaking came from those two desk lamps, then what was the light she turned on when she was filling the generator with oil?

Thud—

BOOM!

BOOM!

BOOM!

Before Xin Xin react, a loud banging came from outside the room.

The commotion was intense and forceful, as if they were about to tear the door apart.

Xin Xin's expression changed.

Something's not right.

In the original Prologue, after opening the door with the Code Lock, you are supposed to fight ' Mr. Jun '.

In the VR version, however, ' Mr. Jun ' appeared in this unexpected way.

And this doctor

In the original Prologue, they had already taken the key and escaped.

But why is it here in the VR version?

What changes did this actually make to the game's storyline?

The strange screams and cries rang out again.

The door to the room in the darkness was being repeatedly pounded on.

The doctor continued to smile strangely.

The corpse also stared at her with its mouth wide open.

Everything seemed to be preparing for what was to come.

until

They're coming.

Bang!

In the darkness, the sound of the room door crashing to the ground was clearly audible.

At the same time, the loud noise from the Radio rang out, stimulating people's nerves along with the sound effects.

"That thing outside has come in."

Xin Xin had just finished saying that.

From the darkness came the sound of hurried footsteps.

"I'm knocking! I'm knocking! What's that?! What the hell is coming in?!"

Xin Xin was extremely nervous and looked very panicked.

She kept looking around, trying to figure out which direction the ghostly thing outside the door would rush in from.

The Flashlight beam went out completely.

Only the faint gamma value of the game itself remains visible.

The doctor and Mr. Jun suddenly disappeared, as if they had never existed.

The next second...

Dirt outside the door

It burst forth from the Pitch Black.

The sudden sudden appearance of her face terrified Xin Xin so much that she let out a blood- Xin Xin scream in the live stream!

Because of that thing.

It was the same hanging female corpse they had encountered earlier.

It straightened its arms, opened its mouth wide, and, accompanied by Radio noise, revealed its wobbly, spring-like eyes as it roared and charged toward Xin Xin in the darkness.
