Omen Pouch

The so-called candy bag is a small black cloth bag with an octopus face pattern printed on the surface, which can be carried and hung on the waist.

As Han Dong reached out to touch it, he heard the system notification again:

The important item for this event has been picked up - the [Bag of Omens]

Whenever the ' Mythical Stage ' arrives, you need to draw a Omen Card from the bag and roll the dice.

The "Ominous Sign" judgment fails only when the value marked on the Omen Card is equal to the value of the dice... Otherwise, the event corresponding to the Omen Card will occur immediately.

After successfully escaping, resolving, or avoiding an ominous event, you will receive "Omen Points" equivalent to that on the Omen Card.

When the ominous sign fails to be detected, the probability of drawing the card "Desperate Moment" will be increased (eventually reaching 100%).

If you draw "Desperate Moment", you need to draw two more Omen Card from the bag. This will trigger immediately without needing to roll the dice.

※ The Desperate Moment" setting is intended for participants with exceptionally good luck.

Note: ① The Bag of Omens cannot be spied on, burned, or lost.

②. The process of rolling dice cannot be interfered with by external forces and is related to individual luck.

③. The so-called Mythical Stage will appear as the plot progresses, and participants will receive a notification at that time.

"Ominous signs... So that's how it's set up, meaning that various dangerous events are unavoidable."

Even with the best of luck, something bad can still happen.

There are just too many rules and settings in single-player mode, aren't there? I have a feeling that this Destiny Event is particularly dangerous, but there will also be unexpected opportunities.

I originally planned to train Togu and Chen Li, but it turned out like this.

There will be half an hour of free time at the beginning.

Han Dong immediately set off to search the villa he had temporarily rented.

The "Mist" incident gave Han Dong the identity of a writer, but it did not forcibly implant corresponding memories like in "It".

Han Dong needs to understand his own identity.

Upon arriving at the second floor of the villa.

Due to yesterday's storm, a large tree in the yard crashed into the villa, completely destroying the study.

Using the strength of his G-arm, Han Dong forcibly tore open the blocked study door to check the situation inside.

(It should be noted that the town is located on an island in the center of a giant lake. Most of the residential buildings are situated on the edge of the island, offering stunning views of the lake and the distant mountains.)

Through the gap created by the falling tree, Han Dong could see the mountains on the other side of the lake shrouded in thick white mist.

The fog seemed to be slowly moving toward the town.

The opening of the movie "The Mist" is also like this.

In the study that had been damaged by the falling tree, various books were scattered all over the floor, along with some manuscripts belonging to the writer Han Dong.

"Hmm... only a title? The rest is all blank? Could it be... I'm suffering from severe writer's block, so I came here to gather material? That's a bit strange."

The manuscripts scattered all over the floor were all blank sheets of paper.

The only blank sheet of paper bore the title in capital letters: "MI"

Han Dong continued searching for clues in the study that might be useful.

"Judging from the scattered books, I seem to belong to the horror writer category... Why come to this kind of small town to gather material? Are there any horror legends in the area? At least it wasn't mentioned in the movie."

Without obtaining any useful clues, the half-hour preparation time came to an end.

Story Guide: Heading to the Supermarket

Requirement: Please arrive at the supermarket in the town center within 20 minutes.

Note: This wizard has no extra options and must be executed.

"In the early stages, I will be required to follow the original plot of the movie... So far, I have not experienced any bad omens. Following the movie plot that I am familiar with in the early stages can be considered a stable start."

When Han Dong went to the dressing room to change his clothes, he found that the clothes placed in the wardrobe all looked rather middle-aged, monotonous and outdated.

Finally, Han Dong changed into a white shirt, put on a pair of loose-fitting trousers and leather shoes, and set off immediately.

It is consistent with the plot of the movie.

During the drive, they encountered a large number of military vehicles heading in the opposite direction, and the original movie also briefly mentioned the military's plans at this point.

A short while later, Han Dong drove to the important area where 80% of the movie's story takes place - the supermarket.

Han Dong tried to avoid everyone's sight and entered the supermarket from the side, without contacting anyone for the time being.

Story Guide: You have entered the supermarket. Please wait quietly for the fog to appear.

Han Dong, who was sitting in the corner, soon spotted the important characters and supporting roles in the movie in the supermarket, as well as a female character that Han Dong found very repulsive.

In exploring the issues of human nature, the film "The Mist" portrays a fanatical religious figure who is extremely repulsive.

During this time when everyone was trapped in the supermarket for a long time, enveloped in despair.

This fanatic kept making statements about 'Judgment Day'. In the United States, where people have religious beliefs, coupled with this desperate environment, 80% of the civilians in the supermarket believed that he was God's chosen one and advocated sacrificing some people to appease God's wrath.

"Such fanatics may eventually affect my operations and make things more complicated... Let's try to get rid of this person before the fog rolls in."

There's no need to kill her. Just find a reason to lure her out of the supermarket and let her fend for herself.

Just as Han Dong tried to approach the woman who had not yet made her Judgment Day remarks, the guide's prompt came again:

Contact with the important figure, Mrs. Carmody, and maliciously killing her may result in a "Speed Change".

Please select the dialogue below to develop your relationship with this character.

('Conversation guidance' only appears during the first meeting with an important person.)

1. "Hello Mrs. Carmody, I encountered some problems while reading the Book of Revelation recently. Could I ask you some questions about the book?"

2. "Mrs. Carmody, you look beautiful today."

3. "You're blocking my way, get out of my way!"

4. "In a little while, Satan will come and take away your foul-smelling body."

"This... the first conversation even has a guide? No wonder it's a single-player mode. But then again... I haven't had any memories of this author implanted, so talking randomly might arouse suspicion."

In Han Dong's view, the first dialogue option was actually more suitable for inducing conversation.

However, Han Dong had never read the Bible and didn't know how to continue the conversation. He might offend the fanatic and cause him to stop contacting Han Dong altogether.

Finally, a choice was made.

While most people in the supermarket were grumbling about the power outage and signal disruption, they took advantage of the situation.

Han Dong brought his lips close to Mrs. Carmody's ear and whispered:

"In a little while, Satan will come and take away your foul-smelling body."

After saying this, Han Dong appeared at the end of the shelf, waved to the fanatic with a strange expression, and then walked towards the Warehouse Area at the back of the supermarket.

As expected.

"A messenger of Satan!!"

Mrs. Carmody was furious and immediately chased after Han Dong, wanting to demand an explanation.
