Chapter 77

Back in the real world, Bai Yan remained standing, lost in thought.

The seventh level of the game was difficult, more difficult than the first six levels he had experienced. In difficult difficulty, being bold and careful is no longer enough, it also depends on luck.

If you are unlucky, your ability to find a way out will be useless.

Moreover, NPCs on hard difficulty are not easy to mess with either.

This was the first time he saw an NPC with a harder life than the player.

"Speaking of how we cleared the level, why did Liu Xiyu suddenly wake up?"

Bai Yan sorted through all the memories of this game. At the end of the game, Liu Xiyu successfully walked out of the horror cellar. According to what the little girl said, she could wake up as long as she cleared the game.

However, in the last room, they didn't have time to do anything. Liu Xiyu took one look at the photo and started crying in front of the photo of her mother's death.

If the gringo hadn't been so mean as to touch the photo, all four of them might have survived.

"There is no need for players to do anything. The last room is not so much a test for us as it is specifically for Liu Xiyu." Bai Yan murmured to himself: "I always feel that the purpose of this nightmare is to tailor Liu Xiyu The creation and testing of players are just incidental. If it is speculated that Liu Xiyu can pass the level after seeing the photo, it makes sense to us, but knowing that her mother has passed away is a blow to a fourteen-year-old girl. Big enough."

Thinking of this, Bai Yan had new doubts: "The purpose of the nightmare is to stimulate Liu Xiyu and scare her, but what's the use of stimulating her?"

Bai Yan couldn't understand, but remembering how Ye Shangyu stayed away from Liu Xiyu from the beginning, he felt that she must know something.

In fact, he had a vague guess in his heart, maybe, this little girl is a ghost? A ghost that looks a lot like an NPC?

Regardless of whether Liu Xiyu is a ghost or not, her lethality in mini-games is quite astonishing.

This level of the game taught Bai Yan a lesson. When he sees NPCs in the future, he should be more wary of them. NPCs in difficult difficulty levels already have the ability to cheat players.

After reflecting on the gains and losses of this level of the game, Bai Yan opened the forum, browsed the posts for a while, and pondered over it.

After reading the forum for a while, he opened the browser and searched for some imaginative things on his mobile phone to develop his own ideas.

Time passes while reading...

At twelve o'clock in the morning, Bai Yan was a little sleepy and planned to turn off his phone and take a rest.

However, after he closed all the apps, he keenly discovered that there was one more thing on his phone——

Next to the 'Hell Front' app, there was another app he had never seen before.

This app has no name, just a dark mess.

If it hadn't been for the fact that it was right next to the 'Hell Front', and because of the app, Bai Yan would have been wary of all similar gadgets. Among the mess of apps, he might not have been able to find that there were too many things on his phone.

Seeing this unfamiliar App, Bai Yan's sleepiness disappeared and he began to look at it with interest.

what's the situation?

Could it be that the App is no longer satisfied with having only one self and has begun to undergo mitosis?

No, the new App cover is completely different from the App, and it doesn’t have the magic of the App that makes you eye-catching at first glance. It is not so much a copy of the App as it is a degraded version of the App.

Therefore, this may be a small app born from an old app, or it may be that the two apps have no connection at all, and they may be competitors.

Bai Yan held the phone and his eyes moved between the two apps. He was really interested in this new product that suddenly appeared.

However, when he first opened the app, the pain of being chopped into ribs by a demon was still fresh in his memory. If you open this new one, will it be the same as the App?

Bai Yan's claws were ready to move.

Just like when I knew there was a ghost but couldn't help but open the app. After rubbing it for a long time, he couldn't help it, so he pressed it and opened this new thing.

one two three……

Bai Yan counted the seconds in his mind, wondering what functions the new app would have, and whether it would also bring him into a horror game and make him struggle to survive.

However, after three seconds, nothing happened.

Bai Yan looked around. He was still sitting in the chair. He was alive, his body didn't hurt, his head was still on his head, and there was no ghost behind him.

Except, his phone screen suddenly went black.

"..."

Isn't this a supernatural incident? Is there a virus in his phone?

Bai Yan was a little sluggish.

Can a phone loaded with an App still be infected with a virus? It wasn’t mentioned on the forum!

Does this phone still work?

Looking at the dark screen, Bai Yan fell into deep thought.

If other players saw the virus on their mobile phones, they might cry for joy and wonder whether they could escape.

Bai Yan looked at the blacked-out phone and felt as if the sky was falling. He shook the phone up and down, then held his breath and restarted the phone.

After a few seconds, the phone turns back on.

Fortunately, his phone is still alive.

Bai Yan was very pleased. He found the location of the App at a glance. His App, like his phone, was still alive and unaffected by the virus.

He looked at the extra one again, a little unwilling to give up, not believing that this strange thing that suddenly appeared was actually a virus.

In this state of mind, he couldn't help but click again.

"..."

The screen of the phone went black again.

After turning on the phone again, Bai Yan didn't do anything stupid this time. He was afraid that he would break the phone if he played too many times. He still had a big gift package to claim.

Knowing that the new thing was just a virus, Bai Yan tried to delete it, but it seemed to grow in his phone and he couldn't kill it no matter what he did.

Leaving it alone, Bai Yan turned off the phone to rest and slept until the next morning...

Tuesday.

After breakfast, Bai Yan turned on the phone as usual, and several new news popped up on the screen.

Bai Yan saw that one of them was about mobile phone viruses, so he opened it with interest.

[Mysterious virus swept the Internet. Has your phone been infected? ]

Bai Yan read the details. A week ago, a mobile phone virus appeared on the Internet and a large number of users were infected.

This mobile phone virus appeared on the user's phone in the form of an App. If the user is curious and accidentally clicks on this App, the phone will restart at best or freeze at worst.

Moreover, this mobile phone is highly toxic, spreads very quickly, and has many variants, causing many users who clicked on this app to have their phones completely scrapped, and the screen is still black.

Because of this sinful app, the Internet has been crying loudly, and the victims strongly condemned this immoral "poisoner".

At present, the criminal who deliberately created and spread the mobile phone virus is still under investigation, that is, the criminal has not been caught yet.

After reading all the text, Bai Yan touched his chin and thought to himself that it turned out that I was not the only one who was unlucky.

Compared with users whose mobile phones were completely ruined, his luck was still good.

However, he also had some doubts about whether the virus could kill the app, but he guessed that it should not be possible.

The app can make the phone waterproof, fireproof, and drop-proof, and change its physical properties. It is difficult for a mobile phone virus to make the app ineffective.

After reading the news, Bai Yan thought that it was not just him, and there might be unlucky players.

He opened the forum and found that there were really posts discussing this mobile phone virus.

A player was just as curious as him and opened the virus app. His luck was bad, and his phone crashed, but the app was still there.

Soon, the phone flashed twice and restarted. When the phone restarted, the virus app disappeared, but the app was still in the same place.

The app can really kill viruses.

Bai Yan thought about it and felt that the virus on his phone could not affect the app, so he ignored the app.

After learning the details of the matter and knowing that the virus could not affect the app game, Bai Yan did not care about the mobile phone virus, left it on the phone, and continued his daily life for a week.

During this period, he paid attention to Chu Fu. The girl was still doing her live broadcast and was becoming more and more popular.

Bai Yan felt that Chu Fu's appetite was a bit weird, and he suspected that she was possessed by a ghost.

However, Chu Fu was wary of him, and he could not contact her by phone, so he had to give up.

However, the matching speed was extremely slow this time.

He waited for an hour before he finally matched successfully and entered the game.

When he opened his eyes, he saw a desolate village in front of him, and the air was filled with the stench of cow dung.

Bai Yan ignored these and looked down at his phone as usual to read the rules of this round of the game.

[Successful match]

[Number of players: 6 people]

[Difficulty of the game: difficult]

[Level description: This round of the game is "Dead Silence **". Live in ** for three days, and successfully survive until four o'clock in the morning of the third day to win the game. ]

[Background introduction: You are a thrill-seeking supernatural enthusiast. You saw a post about supernatural events on the Internet, so you made an appointment with your friends to go to ** to explore the ghost.

In the previous ghost exploration activities, you have been to many well-known haunted houses and schools, but you have never seen ghosts, which is very disappointing.

This time, you have made up your mind to live in ** for three days. If you don't see ghosts, you will never come out! ]

[Game rules:]

[1. In this round of the game, players must stay in ** (bounded by the stone tablets in the southeast, northwest and northeast) during the game time. Leaving ** is considered a game failure. 】

【2. At 4 a.m. on the third day (Friday to Sunday at 4 a.m.), click the "Return" button on your phone to leave the game. 】

After reading the rules of the game, Bai Yan looked up at his teammates in this level.

As a result, he was a little surprised.

There are actually three foreigners in this level!

The matching principle of the App is to prioritize region and time.

In the past, the game matching speed was extremely fast, and the players who played together were all Chinese, but now, there is a foreign girl with brown hair and blue eyes, a sturdy and dark mixed black man, and another person who also looks Asian, but if you look closely, you can find the subtle difference between him and the Chinese.

In connection with the long matching time, Bai Yan felt that it should be because too many people died in the difficult difficulty of the seventh level, and the App could not gather people, so it expanded the matching range.

The players present came from various countries, but fortunately the App came with a translator, so everyone felt that the other party was speaking their native language, so there was no communication barrier.

Needless to say, Ye Shangyu, Bai Yan has already formed a fixed team with her.

The other players simply exchanged names and prepared to head toward the village.

However, just as they were about to leave, they saw two people walking toward the village entrance.
