Chapter 1155 Suffocating Nightmare
"Ah, I understand! I must have used this stone to kill the monster, yes that's it."
Lin Xue picked up the stones on the ground, touched the monster quietly, and then turned directly to the monster's head!
"Click!"
Lin Xue's accurate head was not good. The stone flew over to the monster's head, and hit the distance, making a crisp sound.
The monster, who looked like a baby, immediately let out a harsh scream and ran towards the place where the stone was!
Lin Xue stood there for two seconds: "Ah? So that's how the stone is used? Ahem, it's almost the same..."
Lin Xue was scared for a moment. She thought she was hitting this monster with a stone. If she hit her, wouldn't it be a waste of time...
Fortunately, the stone led the monster away, so Lin Xue quickly continued to walk in.
After knowing the correct way to play this game, Lin Xue's progress was much faster, but this process was still scary.
Simply put, the gameplay is to let players explore the way with sound waves, turn around in a dark environment, avoid those forks, open various mechanisms, and walk out of this level.
There are many very terrifying monsters in the levels. These monsters have different types, but they all have common points, which is that they will judge the player's location based on the sound.
Every time the player walks, wades in the water, claps his hands to explore the road, these monsters will scream and rush over, putting great psychological pressure on the player.
At this time, players need to use some special methods, such as throwing stones to lure these monsters away, and then take the opportunity to open the mechanism to escape.
There is no future to fight hard, and no life is enough to die...
There are two types of scenes in the game. One is a real scene, such as the protagonist's home, office, orphanage, etc. These scenes are made with real maps and modeling. There are no monsters in it and there are no echo exploration, but there are some mobile phone elements.
For example, newspapers from that year, brochures of orphanages, and letters written by the wife to the protagonist, these are all collection elements that hint to the player about the plot background of the game.
Through these scattered collection elements, players can roughly guess the identity and background of the hero.
Another scene is the echo path exploration scene, such as the absolutely pitch-black cave.
This kind of scene is often narrow and narrow, and there is absolutely no light source, so you can only see everything around you through echoes.
These scenes are full of all kinds of monsters. Players must walk forward with fear, fight wits and courage with these monsters with their voices, and then enter the next scene.
These two scenes are constantly alternating, making the player's spirit sometimes nervous and sometimes slightly relaxed. Under such a relaxed rhythm, the player can be highly mentally tight while gritting his teeth and persisting in playing.
"This game is quite literally good at following the steps. Every time I think about quitting immediately, but I ended up playing here..."
"Wait a minute, I'll throw a stone to find a way... Well?! This monster is invisible."
Lin Xue threw out a stone and found that a red phantom moved to the place where the stone was almost instantly, and then disappeared!
Obviously, as the level progress continues to advance, the difficulty of the game continues to increase.
The new monster is invisible, which means that it can only see the afterimage of a moment when it moves, and you can't see where it is usually.
Moreover, the complexity of the level has also increased. Lin Xue not only has to constantly avoid monster detours, but also open up various complex mechanisms.
Most of these mechanisms are valves or gates, and each time they are opened, they will make a harsh sound, attracting monsters.
So Lin Xue could only lead the monster away by throwing stones in advance, and then he would dare to open these mechanisms after calculating the distance.
What’s even more annoying is that throwing stones away from the monster is also very risky.
Because the further you go to the levels, the more sensitive the monsters will hear, and even ordinary footsteps will attract them.
Lin Xue could only walk quietly or squat, slowly walking forward, not daring to make any sound.
You can only determine the surrounding environment through the sound of water droplets and monster screams, and often you are blindly throwing stones.
If a person is not careful and throws the stone on the wall in front of him and bounces back, it will be cold...
Under such continuous mental torture, Lin Xue actually kept playing all the way, and even she herself felt very shocked.
As the level continues to advance backward, Lin Xue begins to gain more clues.
The hero once tried to adopt a child, but somehow failed to complete it.
The company's leader once wrote a letter to the male protagonist, asking him why he was absent-minded recently and had to take a long holiday to adjust his mood.
It seems that there have been major changes in the hero's home. After the vacation, the hero performed well and the company considered promoting him to chief designer.
At the same time, Lin Xue also found a large number of drugs for treating depression in the protagonist's home. These drugs were actually banned in the early 1990s because excessive use would cause suicide.
Finally, after a long journey, in the twisted and terrifying memory, the protagonist experiences the past with his wife again, and finally comes to a rooftop.
On the rooftop, the protagonist's wife jumped down and left him forever.
At that moment, Lin Xue's vision suddenly turned blue, and a program was restarting urgently, and a dialog box finally popped up.
【Restart manually】
【y/n】
At this point, Lin Xue has already understood that in fact, all this is just a virtual world.
The male protagonist and his wife are about to have a cute baby after marriage, and they have even started preparing for pregnancy, but they have a miscarriage due to accident. They wanted to adopt a child, but they failed in the end. The wife jumped off the building and committed suicide due to depression, leaving the male protagonist to lock himself in this nightmare forever.
Lin Xue chose not to restart.
This time, the protagonist wakes up in a room full of servers, with a virtual reality device behind him.
This is his home, but it has been filled with servers one by one.
Only a crib in the corner is left, which can remind people of the warm and happy home before.
After his wife died, the hero worked hard and made a lot of money. He bought many servers and virtual reality equipment, creating an illusory dream for himself, allowing him to return to that happiest time.
However, this dream is not happy, because the hero's sense of guilt in his heart did not let him go, and his dream turned into a terrifying nightmare.
All decades have passed, and the hero has come out of this endless nightmare for the first time.
However, just when Lin Xue thought the protagonist had let go of all this and accepted his wife's death calmly, he pushed open the door and walked out.
"Waiting for me...I'm here to find you..."
