Welcome to the Nightmare Game

The dark and abandoned room, the bloody suit of armor, the dead body on the ground, the gentle female voice behind the door: these horrible images all fermented by this eerie atmosphere, constituting fear in peoples hearts.

There was a knock at the door again, and the strange voice called softly. Although it was in Chinese, it still had a strong foreign accent: The door is locked from the outside, so I cant get out. Is there anyone who will help me open the door?

In this dark and horrible castle, behind the secret door, what was the person who was talking to them? Or, was it a person talking, or

Dont open the door! Nan Lu let out a scream, and her eyes widened in horror. Who knows what the hell is behind the door!

Dr. Lu gave a cry: It should be either a ghost or a monster.

The Rain-Day Laundry skill was still unresponsive. Qi Leren couldnt rely on it to judge whether the person behind the door was malicious or not. If they turned and walked away now Would they miss something?

Who are you? Why are you behind the door? Qi Leren hesitated for a moment and decided to ask first.

The voice behind the door was silent for a moment, and said softly, My name is Nina, and I am the maid here

Nina paused for a moment and her voice became sad: While I was still alive.

Moonlight flowed quietly and fell into this room through the window covered by iron bars. Nina sighed softly behind the door: Im dead, and everyone else is dead

Dr. Lu gave a cry: It sounds like a clue. Lets open the door for her.

No way! What if shes pretending? What if she lied to us? Once the door opens, who knows if shell kill us! I dont believe a word she said! Nan Lu suddenly seemed to have had a switch flipped and she cried hysterically. Xiao Hong was slightly embarrassed by her overreaction, and took her by the waist to try to calm her down.

I also think we should open the door. Qi Leren said quietly.

Be careful if she tries to kill you when you open it, Dr. Lu reminded him.

Qi Leren smiled bitterly at him and whispered, What Im more worried about is if I can kill her.

With the S/L skills, it wasnt risky for him to open the door and be killed. Although he was a little uneasy to use this skill frequently, this hidden worry was not to be feared compared with the imminent danger.

Youre crazy! I dont care, if you want to die, just do it! Nan Lu said shrilly, dragging Xiao Hongs hand and walking back.

Well, now there are only two of us left, which is a perfect violation of the horror film rule dont act alone or youll embark on the route of death, Dr. Lu said, throwing up his hands.

Qi Leren looked back at Nan Lu and Xiao Hong who had left, and frowned: What are NPCs in copy missions?

Because of Ning Zhous life story, he now realized that NPCs in the Nightmare World should actually be treated as human beings from another world. Each of them has his own life from birth to death. They were complete and separated from the existence of players, even more free than players because they werent bound by the will of the system; But what about the NPCs in the copy? Did they have independent personalities? Would theirs be real joys and sorrows? Did they have their own lives? Or were they just pieces of created data?

Can you open the door already? Dr. Lu, who had already hid by the door and was ready to run, interrupted Qi Lerens thinking with a genial smile.

Qi Leren took a deep breath and stood in front of the wooden door.

Save complete.

The door was unlocked from the outside, the handle was gently turned, and the wooden door was slowly opened with a creak. At that time, his eyes were full of clear moonlight that fell on the carpet with delicate patterns. In the moonlight, a young woman dressed as a maid put her hands in front of her and looked at him with a happy face: Thank God, the door finally opened. But who are you? Why are you here?

Ninas figure was transparent in the moonlight, and she was no longer alive. Even she knew it.

The Rain-Day Laundry skill didnt give any warning, and Qi Leren himself didnt feel any danger. His heart relaxed a little and he waved to Dr. Lu who was far away.

Dr. Lu slowly moved to the door of the small room, and stood by the door not daring to come in: Please ask her if she knows about the fire in the castle.

Qi Leren then said, We came into this castle by mistake. It was dark when we came in, but the traces of being burned disappeared after the bell rang. Do you know what happened here and why everyone died? Why was there a fire?

Ninas figure in the moonlight was slightly sad: This is a long and unfortunate story

Dr. Lu, who was still standing by the door, closed the door, sat down silently on the sofa, and took a bottle of water from his inventory to take a sip: Speak slowly, dont worry.

Look at this posture that was like taking out a bag of melon seeds*, Qi Leren and Nina were speechless.

{*E/N: like settling in to watch a show}

Nina sighed: The mistress of this castle, she went crazy.

Dr. Lu nodded frequently, expressing satisfaction with this high-energy beginning to the story. Both of them didnt interrupt, and listened quietly as Nina continued: My lady, like her mother and grandmother, was a famous beauty when she was young, but after giving birth, she began to gradually go crazy. I think her husband knew, but he still married her. Although they had no children after marriage, they loved each other very much. Its just that the good times dont last long The Madam, she gradually showed symptoms like her mothers.

"She began to become suspicious and doubted every woman around her husband. Even we were forbidden to approach him by the Madam, and several people were even whipped by her. The Master spent most of his time doing business outside the home. Every time he came home, she quarreled with him or even beat him, which became more and more crazy Finally, the Master couldnt stand it, and locked her up and sent someone to take care of her. On several occasions, she escaped and climbed out from the window to find the master, who then simply had the windows nailed up.

"We could only watch her get crazier every day until that day

[Rain-Day Laundry: At present, the remaining uses are 2/3.]

There was a loud bang, and the closed door was hit by a heavy object. Dr. Lu, who had listened to the story leisurely and comfortably, suddenly stood up from the sofa and looked at the door in a panic: What happened?

Qi Leren was also nervous, as the number for Rain-Day Laundry had been reduced once. The people outside the door were by no means good!

Its coming! It must be coming! Ninas expression suddenly became frightened. She looked at the door in a panic, muttered and retreated, and finally hugged her head with a scream and disappeared into the moonlight.

Bang! The door was slammed, so rough and hard, as if someone had hit the door regardless of pain, and the sound of each impact was like a hammer hitting Qi Lerens heart.

What should we do? What should I do now? Dr. Lu panicked and looked left and right to find out if there was a second door, but there was no other door in this small room and the only window was sealed by iron bars.

I shouldnt have used the S/L skill just now. Qi Leren couldnt help but have some regrets, but there was no time for that now: Theres only one armor and one body outside the door. The sound of the door being hit sounds like the armor. The doors going to break. When it comes in, Ill draw it away and you will run out quickly.

But what will you do? Dr. Lu looked at him, stupefied.

Qi Leren gave him an oblique look: You, who falls on your face when running, should worry more about yourself. Maybe Ill overtake you in a short time.

Dr. Lu, who was poked in a sensitive place, turned his eyes and leaned against the wall, trying to reduce his noticeability. Qi Leren grabbed one side of the tea table and took it in his hands to deal with a living armor. The sharp object of his dagger was obviously not comparable to the blunt object.

The cracking door was finally overwhelmed, and the door lock was knocked open with a creaking sound.

The tall armor stood outside the door, covered in silvery white moonlight. With a thud, it moved its legs and feet made of metal and walked into the small room.

Run! Qi Leren yelled. He hit the tea table hard against the armor, breaking it into two pieces, and Dr. Lu pushed off the wall and gave it his all, quickly escaping through the door. Before he had run even a few steps, he gave a painful cry, and tripped onto the ground. Then he continued to run while looking chilled.

If it werent for the dangerous situation, Qi Leren would have laughed. But the reality soon gave him a slap in the face, and the sword in the armors hand drew a dazzling arc of light in the cold moonlight.

Danger! Qi Lerens nerves stretched to the limit at this moment, and there was a slight tingling pain in the back of his neck. The picture in front of him seemed to slow down, and his body rolled down to the ground agilely, and with several rolls hid behind the sofa. The sword split into the back of the sofa, with a slight sloped sound. Fine dust flew out from the incision and floated in the moonlight.

Come on! Qi Leren rolled out again from another direction, got up and ran, and rushed out of the room without looking back. There was a heavy footstep behind him, and every sound was mixed with the tremolo of colliding metal.

In front of the corridor was the bright hall, which made Qi Leren who was running in the dark less afraid.

The footsteps were getting farther and farther away, and finally disappeared.
