Werewolf Storyline

This scream caused Xin Xin's live stream to see a surge in viewership.

The audience showered the screen with gifts of all sizes to express their delight.

After all, their real purpose in watching Horror Games live streams was to see Xin Xin scream in fear.

Therefore, once the goal was achieved, they naturally stopped being stingy with gifts and showered them with presents.

This wasn't just the case for Xin Xin; it was the same for other streamers who had secured pre-broadcast qualifications.

At this moment, the popularity of Dark Forest VR is unparalleled.

But while some people play poorly, others play well.

For example, Zai Zong is one.

As time passed, he has now reached the Chapter 1 and has endured the difficult first night's events.

During this time, he experienced evil spirits Knock, monster attacks, and eerie calls and gnawing sounds.

He was so frightened that he braced himself against the door with the cabinet, a truly terrifying experience.

He didn't take off the VR device until the sun rose in the game, gasping for breath and wiping away the cold sweat with a tissue.

"Holy crap, this VR version is absolutely terrifying compared to the original. I almost peed myself playing it."

"This nighttime event is so damn depressing. The original was already scary enough, but the VR version is several levels worse."

In response to Zai Zong's complaints, a big spender in the live stream immediately left a prominent comment worth 50 yuan.

The text above reads, "Can't you just die once? I came here to see you suffer, not to see you miraculously survive!"

Many viewers and fans in the bullet screen agreed with this comment.

Zai Zong pursed his lips and first thanked the big brother for the 50 yuan. He said, "Big brother is awesome. Big brother has 108 babies in one pregnancy."

Then he said, "You're such a busybody, shut up."

After saying that, ignoring the eye-catching comment "You son of a bitch" that his older brother had left, he put on the VR device and continued playing the game.

He successfully survived the first night, and now it was time to explore the vast forest.

Back to the game.

Having experienced a nighttime event, the protagonist now finds himself in Safe House house as dawn breaks.

And it was already 8 a. m.

According to the game's settings, nighttime is defined as the period from 8 PM to 8 AM, and any strange occurrences in the Safe House during this time are considered nighttime events.

As for the so-called Safe House, it was actually just a dilapidated wooden hut that leaked air and water.

On the first night Zai Zong hid in a room with four walls, and even dragged a wardrobe in to block the door to get through it.

Now, he is ready to continue his exploration.

At that moment, Zai Zong controlled the protagonist to walk out of the Safe House and into the corridor.

The protagonist pauses before a visibly broken window, and the game enters real-time rendering.

He stepped forward slightly, picked up a piece of broken wood from the ground, and rubbed it in his hand.

He then looked at the broken window, his tone tense.

[I sealed this window up yesterday.]

Those forest monsters all broke through here and broke in.

If I want to live a little longer, it would be best to seal off the rest as well.

As he spoke, the protagonist glanced out the window at the Dark Forest devoid of sunlight.

Looking at those trees that, despite being 8 a. m., gave off the atmosphere of a forest at 7 p. m., he dropped the wood shavings in his hand and spoke cautiously.

[Wood, I need more wood]

I must cut down trees to make planks to seal the doors and windows.

I... I will definitely leave this place... leave this damned forest!

After speaking, the perspective narrows.

The Zai Zong discovered that he could control things again.

but

The next second.

A hoarse male voice, accompanied by heavy breathing, came from the dilapidated hall outside the corridor.

[You skinny little thing, I can smell your stench from a mile away. Come on over here.]

The Zai Zong a moment, looking puzzled.

But he quickly realized what was happening, hurriedly pressed the remote control button, and strode out of the wooden cabin passageway to the dilapidated living room, which was in a mess.

At a glance, he spotted the NPC by the gate, hands in his pockets, wearing an old hooded cotton-padded jacket, carrying a hunting rifle, and leaning against the wall.

Werewolf!

Upon seeing this, Zai Zong's memories began to surface.

In the Chapter 1 of the original version, the werewolf is one of the most important NPCs.

It involves the main storyline of the game and is also related to important side quests.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, you should never attack it.

but

The Only Game's extremely high degree of freedom will not stop players from doing so.

After all, can gamers really be restricted while playing a game?

Therefore, many players will impulsively attack the werewolf, only to get beaten up by the werewolf.

However, some players have used the "scraping" technique to slowly wear down the werewolf to death.

The consequence of doing so is losing the werewolf questline and being forced into the questline of another important NPC, the Violinist.

This Only Game is something players truly appreciate, and it also leads some players who are prone to impulsive actions to choose to start a new game.

The Zai Zong was thrilled.

I wonder how the werewolf's storyline will change in the VR version.

Full of anticipation, Zai Zong stepped over the stones and trash to talk to him.

As soon as you enter, the game starts real-time rendering.

He knew that the storyline performance unique to the VR version had begun.

In the game, noticing the protagonist's approach, the werewolf wearing an old cotton-padded coat slowly straightened his legs, kept his hands in his pockets, and began to carefully examine the protagonist.

The thick hood couldn't hide his prominent long nose and wolf-like mouth.

The hunting rifle slung over his shoulder swayed gently with each step.

The twitching nose kept sniffing the smells in the dilapidated house.

I could smell a stench of decay from a great distance.

[So it was you. You skinny bastard, I still remember you.]

Upon seeing this, Zai Zong was stunned.

Wait, is this the original dialogue?

Wait, the werewolf knows the protagonist?

The Zai Zong in a mess, and so is the protagonist.

At this moment, the screen pauses, and four options appear below.

1. Do you know me?

2. Who exactly are you?

3. Why are you here?

4. (Remaining silent)

Zai Zong chose the first option, and immediately the protagonist spoke to the werewolf.

[You know me? What exactly are you? Is that wolf head Mask?]

Upon hearing this, the werewolf chuckled sinisterly.

Of course I know you.

You know me too.

The werewolf pointed to the wolf-shaped face under the hood, grinning as sticky saliva dripped from his mouth.

[Me before I knew this version of myself, hehehehehe.]

The werewolf continued to observe the protagonist.

[Based on what you've done, I should have eaten your pathetic, lean meat.]

[But look at you now, like a walking corpse. It's pathetic. I have absolutely no appetite.]

[You should be grateful. Those bastards from the government.]

The protagonist was shocked and blurted out, "Who are you?"

But the werewolf just smirked and didn't answer.

But the Zai Zong was extremely surprised.

Oh my god!

What the heck is this plot?

This is completely different from the original!

He remembered that in the original version, the werewolf and the protagonist did not know each other.

Furthermore, when the werewolf appears at the Safe House during the day on the second day, he is there to give the protagonist a mission.

Its existence is closely related to the village, the Pretty Madam, the Violinist.

Only later in the story do we learn that the werewolf's true identity is the Pretty Madam's husband.

But why does the werewolf in the VR version recognize the protagonist?

Does this mean the plot has changed so much that it can no longer be referenced from the original game?

With a mixture of doubt and curiosity, Zai Zong continued to watch the real-time calculations in front of him.

In the game, the werewolf talks as he walks up to the protagonist.

It reached into its pocket, adjusted the hunting rifle on its back, grinned, and exhaled a cloud of saliva, letting out a sinister laugh.

I know your task.

I know what you've done.

Look at you, you truly deserve it!

[But don't worry. I'm tight-lipped, and I know what you're looking for.]

[If you do me a favor, I'll help you find that thing. How about a deal, you skinny lump of meat?]

Upon hearing this, the game's protagonist seemed to pause for a moment, and four more options reappeared below.

1. My task?

2. What kind of transaction?

3. Do you know where that Village Doctor is?

4. (Remaining silent)

After thinking about the four options for a moment, Zai Zong chose the third one.

There's no other reason than that there are too many words.

After making his choice, the protagonist spoke in a deep voice.

[What did you say? You know the whereabouts of that Village Doctor?]

Now it was the werewolf's turn to be puzzled, but it quickly responded with a reply.

[The Village Doctor? Haha. Of course you don't remember him. Hehehe.]

The protagonist shook his head and spoke again in a deep voice, offering no dialogue options.

[I've lost part of my memory; I don't know what happened, but that bastard beat me up and took my things. I have to find him.]

[If you know his whereabouts, I need you to tell me immediately.]

Upon hearing this, the werewolf revealed an indescribable, eerie smile.

Why not? But that's not how transactions are done.

[What will you give me in return for telling me where that guy is, you skinny little guy?]

The protagonist paused for a moment before replying.

What do you want me to do?

It's here!

A side quest is coming!

Those Zai Zong have played the original version know what tasks the werewolf will give out.

First, they went to the village to steal the key to ' Granny Chicken's ' house, so that the werewolf could sneak in and eat ' Pretty Madam '.

Then, they electrocuted the giant mutated sow that the villagers depended on for survival, causing the villagers to lose hope and forcing them to leave the village, ultimately leading to their deaths in the forest.

But the next second, he froze.

Because what the werewolf said was completely different from what he had guessed.

This is actually a brand new side quest.

The next chapter begins the Special Task Force side quest.
