"Ah... another boring Sunday..."

The man casually tossed his phone onto the bed and lay down in a starfish position.

"Life is so dull and monotonous, I really want something exciting..."

--At that moment, from under his bed came the sound of polite tapping of a book.

"This oil painting is quite interesting..."

At the art exhibition, a handsome blond man raised an eyebrow with interest at the oil painting hanging on his wall.

Although it's a painting that resembles a scary neighbor story, the entire oil painting uses a warm, yellowish color palette.

The man lying on the bed in the painting, along with the thousands of tentacles reaching out from under the bed, combined with the Painter's superb artistic tension, possesses an unexpected Charisma and... unique beauty.

"Sir, this way please. We have prepared a luxurious lunch for you on the cruise ship."

A waiter in a waiter's uniform smiled and gestured for the other person to follow the directions.

"I guarantee this will be an absolute feast..."

Behind this adaptor's head, a gaping maw opened wide, and strands of saliva dripped from the sharp teeth between them.

"A boring novel."

The beautiful Woman with long, curly blonde hair chuckled inexplicably as she closed the book she had taken from the shelf and placed it back on it.

Behind her, a middle-aged man lay sprawled on the ground, his throat slit open by a sharp blade, his eyes wide with terror, and blood forming a small pool on the luxurious and expensive carpet.

A Small Knife lay carelessly to one side, and the Woman's hands were stained with blood.

--This was a particularly heinous case of home invasion robbery and murder.

"Forget it, it's all tasteless stuff. I'd better go look through my haul and see how much I can actually make this time..."

The Woman casually wiped the remaining bloodstains from her hands with a piece of paper, then turned and walked towards the door.

"Speaking of which, this guy should have a wife and a son. I'm a kind-hearted person, so I'll kindly help you reunite as a family... They should be back soon, right?"

The moment the Woman casually closed the door, the middle-aged man, who was lying in a pool of blood with his head almost severed from his neck, suddenly twitched his fingers.

Under the warm sunlight, the Girl quietly turned to a new page in her book.

The Girl is currently in a bustling Plaza with a large number of people. Because of the nice weather, there are quite a few Tourist in the Plaza.

The flock of pigeons was scattered on the ground, and every now and then some Tourist would buy feed from the shops nearby and feed the pigeons.

The Girl sat alone on the bench, but no one around her paid any attention to her. It was as if she had been ignored by everyone. The Girl was all alone in the very center of her own world.

Five minutes later, after placing the Folklore Collection she had finished reading on a chair next to her, the Girl looked up and gazed at the Tian Kong, somewhat lost in thought.

The sun was shining brightly, the autumn air was crisp and clear, and she hadn't seen such a splendid world in a long time.

Even if it's a fake world, what does it matter as long as you live authentically...?

She seemed to let out a soft sigh, and a red guitar appeared in Girl hand without her noticing.

She lifted her right foot and placed it on top of her left, adjusting her posture slightly before softly playing the Girl in the center of the Plaza.

The music was melodious, but none of the people in the Plaza paid any attention to her...

Subway.

"I have a really weird feeling about this Dungeon..."

Looking at the dismembered body double not far away, Bai Zhi, dressed in a White Magicians Formalwear, narrowed his eyes slightly.

These Cannibal Monster look very much like humans are actually not very strong. Their Base Attributes are generally around 10 to 12 points. Not to mention anything else, Bai Zhi could kill a large number of them with just one shot from that [Magic Type] weapon.

"That's right, this was indeed Role-playing Mode at first, I was playing a student... Why can't I connect to the system?"

Bai Zhi took out an ID card from his pocket, glanced at it, and frowned slightly.

--Apart from that, there's something else that's clearly wrong.

Using the [Magicians Formalwear] was actually a terrible choice, even a foolish one.

Even using Teleportation to escape the encirclement would be far more efficient than foolishly leaving a clone behind to become food for these Monsters... But at that moment, why would he choose such a stupid path?

"That's an incredibly stupid thing I would never do... Was my action influenced by some unseen force?"

He glanced back at the carriage that had fallen into darkness, and using the brief invisibility granted by the [Magicians Formalwear], he stepped into another carriage.

Even though so much had happened in this subway car, not a single person in the other cars turned their attention to this side.

Although he had never added any points to his agility attribute, Bai Zhi's agility still reached the human limit of 15 points. With this agility, Bai Zhi moved quickly through the carriage.

Just as his invisibility was about to expire, Bai Zhi stopped in the least crowded carriage. Fortunately, no one noticed his arrival.

After sitting down in the chair and letting out a slight sigh of relief, Bai Zhi took the Student ID out of his pocket.

There was a reason why he initially deduced that this Dungeon was Role-playing Mode.

Because the moment he opened his eyes, a brief memory that didn't belong to him flooded into his mind. In that memory, he was a student riding the subway.

However, as his memories rapidly returned, he realized that the situation was slightly different from what he had imagined.

"My real name is printed on this Student ID... What would have happened if my memories hadn't returned back then?"

Looking at the Student ID in his hand, Bai Zhi's eyes flickered slightly.

So far, this strange Dungeon has provided very few clues, but the number of suspicious points is increasing with each new instance.

First, there are a total of ten Player participating in this Dungeon, but so far, he has only seen himself.

Secondly, although the Passenger on this subway all appear to be human, they are absolutely unrelated to humans.

Then, the Student ID card was printed with his real name, and there seemed to be Monster in the darkness that could devour the Shadow Guard. His own behavior seemed to be influenced by some unseen force, causing him to do some irrational things...

"Um?"

Slightly frowning, Bai Zhi looked up at the subway station.

He wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he thought he heard a melodious... tune just now?
