nightmare space

This is an ancient castle that has been silent for hundreds of years.

The gray and white cobwebs all over the corners, the mottled walls, and the dusty window panes all tell the cruelty of time.

Xu You stepped on the dirty marble floor with his bare feet, shrank his body slightly, and looked around vigilantly as he walked along the corridor.

According to the urine nature of this horror game, there is no guarantee that there will be some ghosts, empty armor, and maybe some inexplicable falling things——

"Squeak—" The door closest to him slowly opened a crack, Xu You froze in fright, held his breath, and turned his head in slow motion.

"You, are you human..." The soft and waxy voice sounded tremblingly, and Xu You's heart that was raised in his throat immediately sank back in relief.

"...I'm human." He replied calmly.

Listening to my girlish voice, I felt a strange sense of awkwardness in my heart.

The old wooden door was half opened, and a girl with black hair and black eyes came into view.It was obvious that she was very scared, holding a rusty fruit knife towards Xu You.

She was trying to contain her fear, and she was already a little speechless, "Why don't you look like a Chinese..."

"Uh, it's a long story," Xu You saw that she was so afraid, most of the original fear in her heart disappeared, and tentatively comforted her, "Are you also a player participating in this nightmare space?"

The girl lowered her hands, almost crying with joy, "Yes! My God, I finally met someone!"

Xu You keenly grasped the key point in her words: "You mean, I was the first person you met?"

"Yes... I've been in the room until then."

Xu You asked her a few more words, and learned that the girl's name was Hao Bing, and she came here as soon as she woke up.She did not "transgender" like Xu You. After the voice in her head prompted her, she found a doll in the room and put it in the package.When the bell rang, the whole room became dilapidated, and she vaguely saw a milky white ghost outside through the crack of the door, and she was so frightened that she almost cried out.When Xu You passed by, she realized that it might be a person, so she suppressed her nervousness and stepped forward to test it.

Xu You had to lament her good luck. If she met the intruder in his room, she didn't know what would happen to Hao Bing.

"Should we stay in this room and wait for this darkness to pass...or keep going?" Xu You's presence made Hao Bing less afraid, subconsciously, she regarded Xu You as her only reliance.

Xu You thought of the mission announced by the voice in his head, and thought of the unknown intruder, and made a decision: "Go on, maybe we will find more."

"But we might meet ghosts..."

"Completing the mission may be the only option to get out of here."

Xu You's words made Hao Bing enlightened: it is useless to escape blindly.

"Uh..." She swallowed nervously, and unconsciously grabbed the corner of Xu You's pajamas tightly with one hand, "Then, let's go..."

The corridor was eerily quiet, Xu You heard his own heart beating like a drum beating.

But along the way, nothing happened, nothing happened.

Xu You breathed a sigh of relief, he thought maybe this was a prank, or a new live-action drama...?

However, the notification sound in his head, the realistic effect of room transition, and the fact that he didn't find any cameras or staff made him doubt his own thinking again.

Xu You thought about the road he had traveled in his heart, and compiled a floor plan.

Before they knew it, they reached the stairs.

"Be careful." Xu You gently reminded Hao Bing.In this dilapidated old castle, the wooden stairs must have been decayed. If you are not careful, it is easy to step on the air or break it.

"Yes." Hao Bing nodded.

The decayed staircase struggled to bear the weight of the person, making an unbearable creaking sound.

Xu You ignored the dust on the armrest, grabbed it and carefully groped down in the dark.

Suddenly, he felt like he stepped on something made of cloth.

Could it be...?

Xu You grabbed the escalator with one hand, groped down with the other, and grabbed the thing.

A familiar voice sounded in my mind: "Collected dolls (3/6)."

really!

Xu You couldn't help grinning, and put the doll into the package, while ignoring the sound of the people behind breathing heavily due to nervousness.

"Xu, sister Xu You..." Hao Bing's voice trembled with a trace of fear, "Then... what is that..."

Embarrassed by the title "sister" for a second, Xu You found a mass of white light at the corner of the stairs, which was soft but not dazzling.

"Don't be nervous." Xu You comforted her, "Stay here and don't move, I'll go and have a look."

He continued down cautiously, but inevitably made a sound that was so noticeable in the silence.

The moment he saw the white light clearly, he trembled uncontrollably—it was a ghost, and it should be a good-looking ghost.

The ghost looks like a woman, with long hair falling down, dressed like a maid, with her back to Xu You.

"...So what, hello...?" Xu You greeted tentatively.

The ghost floated forward as if frightened, then turned around.

This turning around almost didn't scare Xu You into screaming.

There was a faint light all over the ghost, which made Xu You clearly see that its face was bloody and fleshy, it looked like it had been peeled off, and the place where the eyes should be were black holes, still dripping sticky black liquid.The mouth was sewn shut, and it seemed that it wanted to open its mouth, but it could only make a meaningless whimper.

Xu You couldn't move his whole body, and he found sadly that he seemed to be stuck in place, and he couldn't even move a single finger.

The ghost floated towards Xu You, stretched out its slender fingers, as if it wanted to touch him.

"Don't move!" A female voice mixed with crying sounded from behind Xu You.

Holding up the rusty knife in his hand, Hao Bing stabbed at the ghost in front of Xu You in a disorderly manner.

Xu You thought that she would stab the ghost, but saw that her knife hit the ghost's arm.

The ghost wailed in pain and floated backwards.

Xu You watched helplessly as Hao Bing chased after the ghost and stabbed him several times. Several bloody wounds appeared on the ghost's body, which gradually disappeared.

"..."

This girl is simply 66666...

At the same time, Xu You found that he could move.The invisible force that restrained his movements disappeared.

There was no ghost, and the darkness on the stairs returned to the invisible.

He moved his stiff limbs, leaned forward, and touched the person in front: "...Hao Bing?"

wrong.

The tentacles are dead cold.

He almost received an electric shock, turned around and ran upstairs.

Almost at the same time, he smelled a strong smell of blood, with a sweet and girly smell.

What is this...? !

A cold voice sounded in his mind: "Player Hao Bing, confirm death."
