[Comprehensive horror] I am convinced of this system task

This is not the first time I have fought against this fat monster, and I don't know if it will be the last time.

Maybe it's because that experience has haunted me for so long that this monster keeps showing up in Silent Hill again and again, reminding me of a past I'm trying to forget.

But now, I'm not afraid anymore.

After so many battles with the fat monster, this time, with almost no effort, I conveniently dealt with the monster.It fell to the ground, and the body quickly disappeared.The room instantly became empty, with a strange aura.

The ghostly man appeared beside me again.I know that he must have witnessed all this just now.Forcing me to face these things should also be his arrangement.

I turned my head slowly and looked at him blankly.

He seemed to be very satisfied with my behavior, although there was still no smile in those very cold eyes.

"Good job," he said softly, "but not enough."

I raised my eyebrows. This kind of monster chased me around without thinking when I first entered Silent Hill, but now, it is no longer a threat to me. "As many as you come, as many as I can chop."

He smiled, but this smile was even creepier than when he didn't smile: "No, it doesn't mean this, you have already solved this, but you still need to face your deepest fear."

The previous self-confidence was wiped away by his words again, and I was stunned.

Wasn't the homophobia that arose because of that incident my deepest fear?

How come, isn't the behavior of the triangle head before also supporting this matter?

The man turned and walked out the door, back into the hallway.I hurried to follow.He continued along the corridor, going deeper.There were no lights anymore, it was dark.I can only see his ghostly figure walking silently.

"Your fear doesn't mean what you're afraid of. That's the 'origin' of it all."

Origin again?

"But I remember..." I tried to recall the conversation with the priest in the church hall before I left the church that morning, "'God' stripped 'fear', and then cursed the entire Silent Hill... ...that's the origin, right?"

I saw his hood move and wondered if it was a nod.There was no sound at all when he walked, only my footsteps echoed in the air.

"You're right, but it's not contradictory." His voice was also cold, and it made me wonder whether he was alive or not.

Does what exists in consciousness really exist?

He continued: "Haven't you ever wondered why the tide of corpses born from the fear of 'God'?" He turned around quietly, looking at me with eyes that seemed to have only pupils left, "Why, they Are they all that burning?"

He stopped and stared at me silently.

I'm not stupid.

I know what he means by that, and I know what he wants me to understand.

The fearful riots in which the gods were sealed made Silent Hill fall into a curse, and the tide of corpses appeared from then on.

Plus……

My father wanted to send me to be burned and drive my mother mad.

"This is impossible?!" I felt my voice was a little hoarse, "God! What the hell does it have to do with me?!"

Maybe he heard my last bit of wavering from my voice: "Whether it is true or not, why don't you go and see for yourself."

He made a "please" gesture irreverently, and I looked up, only to find that we had stopped at the end of the corridor, in front of a door.

Seeing that I was still hesitating, he simply opened the door for me.

The scene in the door is deja vu.It was impossible to see how big the room was, because its edges were buried in darkness.Only in the front, a single spotlight in the center of the room is shining, and in the aperture is a device that is exactly the same as that on the second floor.

That's it, I used it under the guidance of Sebastian to stimulate the brain and enter the other world.

In order to activate it, I went all over the hospital looking for gel, even met the perverted groom, and almost caught up with my little friend.It's just that it didn't work in the end, and the gel was used by the triangle head to do strange things.

And now, the machine in front of me, in its energy container, is surging with extremely dense green mist.It can be activated by simply pressing the switch.

"The reason why the inner world is called the inner world," the man's voice came from behind me, "is because it reflects the deepest part of your consciousness, your subconscious."

That is to say, if I use this machine to enter the other world again, maybe I can get the truth—whether that is what I want or not.

"It's up to you." He said as if it had nothing to do with him.

But before he said that, I stepped forward, sat in a chair, and put on my helmet: "Listen, I don't have any fucking church shit to do with me doing this."

"Everyone has the right to choose to care only about himself." He walked over to the machine, gave me a nonchalant glance, and put his hand on the start button.

"Wait a minute!" I struggled a bit, but still didn't get up from the chair, "The last question, who are you?"

He looked at me again, more meaningfully this time: "Ruvik. I hope you won't see me again. As for why I'm here..."

He leans forward so that the burns and stitches on his face are more clearly visible to me: "Because I hate fire, too."

Almost as soon as I realized he pressed the button, I lost consciousness.

Although there is no concept, but it feels that the time of fainting this time is longer than before.

Waking up again is already in the other world, so don't be surprised.

The familiar scenes around me reminded me for a long time, and after I slowly got up from the ground, I remembered that this is the corridor behind the church.

However, I scanned with a flashlight, and the murals were completely different from what I had seen before.When the priest explained to me earlier, I almost finished reading the carvings on it.It’s no different from what she said, the engravings on it are gods and the like, a bit like the Bible stories I read when I was a child.

But now, on this entire wall, there are extremely tragic scenes depicted on it.

At the bottom is an endless fire, just like what we see underground.On the screen, the fire has extended to the town of Silent Hill.All the houses, all the streets, and all the people in them, were tormented by the flames.

The fire was boundless, and they had nowhere to escape.People appear very small in this picture, and there are no extra strokes to describe them.But it is the abstract expression with a few strokes that makes it even more distorted and weird.

Not counting these, in the middle of the picture, a ghost-like image is depicted with very abstract lines, emerging from the thick smoke.

The world inside is dark, with a faint red light, which is even more terrifying when reflected on the screen.

I shook my head, telling myself not to continue to look at the picture above, but to concentrate on the road under my feet.

This corridor is very narrow, and at the end is a door, which is the same as the structure of the real world, and behind the door is a staircase.

Going down the stairs to the short corridor, the scene in front of you is a bit interesting.Even in such a depressing scene, I couldn't help but whistle.

There were originally two rooms on the left and right.In one, I found the gel and the church totem suspected to have been used by my mother to commit suicide. In the other, my blood opened the magic circle and liberated the "Hunter".

But now, in the other world, the doors of these four rooms have all turned into prison-like fence doors.It was pitch black inside, and I shone it with a flashlight, and it turned out that there was something like a charred corpse inside, and it was still slowly twisting after sensing the light source.

In addition to this disgusting thing, directly in front of me, at the other end of the short corridor, where there was only a wall, there was an extra door.

This is an open door.I tried my best to ignore the closed things on both sides and walked forward, simply made a mental preparation, and pushed open this door that does not exist in the real world.

As soon as I stepped in, I raised my gun and prepared to attack, but to my surprise, there was nothing inside.

It is a hall with a floor so high that it is almost more magnificent than the church outside. It almost made me forget that I am still underground.There are no people and no monsters.In the middle there is a large frame that looks like a medieval executioner, with firewood piled underneath.

I stepped forward and saw a very small stone tablet erected under the shelf, with only one sentence engraved on it.

"The True God Is Born".

These few words were like an alarm bell, and they rang heavily in my mind.I realized something was wrong, but it seemed a step too late.

This hall, with me as the center, suddenly ignited a raging fire in a ring shape.

The temperature of the fire made me feel unbearably hot, and something seemed to be in my mind, bubbling out like the flame.The flames only burned into a ring shape, and did not spread to the middle, which means that I would not be burned by them, but they also trapped me in it, unable to leave here.

I hate fire.

This idea popped into my mind suddenly.

"But I like fire very much."

This is what the priest said.

Flames...and, gods and true gods...

Phoenix?

The totem of that church and the phoenix mural in the hall above suddenly appeared in my mind.I feel that my own eyes are sore from the heat.

And at this moment, I heard the harsh sound of metal friction.

Spaced, rhythmic sound.I raised my head, and a figure with a triangular head slowly emerged from the flames.As if he was not afraid of fire at all, he stepped over the circle of fire and came to me.

I tilted my head up a little to see his whole head.He seems to be like this every time, without warning, but he never appears in front of me late.

I don't want to think about why he is here.I just raised my hand, seeing his dull look, I took the initiative to grab his hand and punched myself.

"Okay, let's go together then. Every time I feel like I'm going to do something ridiculous, you're there," I smiled at him, "I like that."
