Wow, I can form an NPC in a survival game

Yu Anle followed Shao Dahai's pace.

She didn't want to think too much about useless things. Right now, her top priority was to obey the rules of the copy and survive.

She found the layout of the entire building in the stairwell. The first floor was the administrative service area, the second floor was the classroom function area, and the third floor was the dormitory function area. There was still an hour before the reporting time mentioned by the NPC, so there was still plenty of time.

She decided to explore.

Walking further into the corridor on the first floor, you will reach the orphanage's cafeteria.

This is a spacious and bright space with five rows of wooden dining tables arranged neatly and white floor tiles reflecting a clean light.

But the paintings on the walls are messy black and white, depressing and abstract.

In one of the paintings, the lines were twisted into the outline of a terrifying human face, with the corners of the mouth deformed and slightly upturned.

In a corner of the cafeteria, there was a storage room door that was not closed tightly, and a faint light came through the gap.

Yu Anle walked closer and saw some old things placed in a mess inside.

A worn-out photo caught her attention.

It was a group photo of children, but all the children's faces were smeared with black paint beyond recognition.

These strange details made the atmosphere in the cafeteria extremely depressing. She felt nauseous and it was hard to imagine how the children could eat in such an environment.

A male staff member was leisurely wiping the floor by the corridor. He was the NPC who greeted them at the door.

Inadvertently, Yu Anle scanned his work badge: [Baicaoyuan Children's Home - Zhao Liu].

She suddenly felt a chill in her heart.

The NPC who received them just now was not named this, but Zhao Yi.

Yu Anle looked at Zhao Liu's face carefully. His facial features were exactly the same as Zhao Yi's, as if they were copied and pasted.

Before she could digest the chill, another male NPC came over with a dirty plate. He had the same face, but his name tag clearly read: [Baicaoyuan Children's Home - Zhao Ba].

The chill spread like a snake, from the lowest point of the spine, all the way to every corner of the body. Yu Anle's breathing stopped instantly, and he gasped.

Hearing her gasp, Zhao Liu and Zhao Ba stopped what they were doing, slowly turned around, and stared at her with their four empty eyes, as if they wanted to suck her soul.

The two men's faces suddenly twisted into unnatural smiles, with the corners of their mouths pulled high, revealing their purple-red, distorted mouths, and their tongues covered with writhing and crawling bugs.

What is this? Why was the NPC receiving the player normally just now, but now it has become like this?

Yu Anle was shocked.

Could it be that because she didn't go back to the dormitory directly, some kind of [rule] was triggered, causing the NPC to mutate?

She was so frightened that her heart almost stopped beating and she turned and ran.

The sound of running footsteps alerted the other NPCs in the cafeteria. They all raised their same faces, their dark eyes following the sound of running. The NPCs closest to her were like puppets. They turned their heads 90 degrees and took mechanical steps. Their joints creaked and made creepy sounds.

Yu Anle rushed to the stairs and climbed up to the third floor using his hands and feet.

She found her room as quickly as she had ever done in her life, and easily inserted the old-fashioned brass key in her hand into the keyhole and opened the door.

The room was a standard single room with a separate bathroom. It looked clean and warm, in stark contrast to the eerie corridor.

Yu Anle rushed into the room and slammed the door shut with all his might.

With a "bang!", the tightly closed door seemed to form a barrier in an instant, isolating the horrible world outside and giving her a fragile sense of security.

She quickly moved away from the door and stood in the bedroom farthest from the door.

The air seemed to be frozen and there was total silence.

She listened carefully, but there was no strange sound coming from outside. It seemed that her action of "returning to the dormitory to tidy up" made everything return to normal.

After taking a moment to calm down, she fell onto the bed, breathing heavily and calming her heartbeat.

After a long time, Yu Anle finally controlled the trembling of his hands and was glad that he had escaped a death situation.

She concluded: If you want to survive in the copy, you need to know more useful "information" to avoid triggering death conditions!

In addition to what the NPC at the door said, she now also had a notebook in her hand that Zhao Yifen had given to the players, which was already wet with cold sweat.

Yu Anle frowned, examining the busy schedule. There were only two 30-minute breaks during the day. If leaving the classroom was considered a violation of the dungeon [rules], would it trigger NPC mutation or death conditions?

If this is true, her free time only lasts for three hours before lights out from 7pm to 10pm.

I glanced at the clock in the room and saw that there were still 30 minutes before reporting.

She took out a pen and paper from the desk and sorted out all the copy rules and information she knew so that she could respond calmly:

1. She can make a wish once after completing the final challenge in a series of horror game copies.

2. The copy is set in the "Baicaoyuan Children's Home" orphanage, and the remaining four players need to play the role of volunteer teachers.

3. She teaches Class B, which has 5 children. The schedule is strictly arranged and there is a "lights-out time" at night.

4. She just violated the NPC's instructions, triggering a mutation but not dying, proving that violating the [rules] does not necessarily lead to death.

The rules of the copy are not complete yet and need to be explored carefully.

Standing up from the bed, Yu Anle quickly went to the bathroom and rinsed his face with cold water to make himself more awake.

The NPC mentioned that the task of returning to the dormitory was to "settle yourself". Yu Anle thought for a moment, checked all the facilities in the dormitory, and finally found several sets of light blue short-sleeved and black skirt uniforms in the closet.

There is a nameplate on each set: [Baicaoyuan Children's Home-Yu Anle]

The copy requires players to play the role of teachers, that is, staff members, and it seems that this uniform is also part of the role-playing.

She quickly changed her clothes, rummaged through the drawers, and found a box of candy in the drawer. There were five candies in total, and thinking of the orphanage background of this copy, she put all five candies into her pocket, and finally looked up at the time on the wall.

There were still 10 minutes left before reporting time. She took a deep breath, calmed herself down, opened the door and walked towards the stairwell.

At the corner of the second floor, the girl with twin ponytails also changed into a uniform and stood at the corner, seemingly thinking about something.

Hearing footsteps behind her, the girl with twin ponytails quickly turned around and saw Yu Anle wearing the same uniform. She smiled friendly and said, "My name is Xu Jiaojiao. Do you want to join us? Give me some courage."

Yu Anle looked at her and seemed harmless. She nodded and said, "Okay, my name is Yu Anle. Class B, 5 kids. What about you?"

Xu Jiaojiao showed the notebook in her hand: "Class A, there are also 5 children, maybe they are next to you. Anle, you look quite calm."

"Same here." Yu Anle smiled bitterly, "A fan of horror movies, level 10, has a big heart."

Xu Jiaojiao's eyes lit up and her eyebrows curved: "What a coincidence, I'm the UP host of horror games."
