Chapter 2: The Game of Origins
After Su Lin came out of the shower, he kept thinking about what the situation was, but after thinking about it, he didn't think that there would be any perverts to patronize him.
There was some accident at the campfire party in the evening, and it ended early.
Finally, in a trance, he returned to the dormitory and wanted to continue revising his thesis, only to find that his USB flash drive was missing.
"What's going on? Did you fall into the library in the morning? ”
He is a little suspicious, he is a cautious and meticulous person, and he rarely leaves things, let alone a USB flash drive with important information.
But there was no one in the dormitory, and if it wasn't for someone stealing it, it could have just been left in the library.
Helplessly, he had to come to the library located on the east side of the school, it was only nine o'clock now, but there were very few people in the school, and I don't know if it was because of the murder in the central square.
The autumn nights were still quite cool, which made his pace a little brisker.
After swiping the student card, the automatic door opened, and when I walked into the library, suddenly the lights seemed to go out, and the air seemed to drop a few degrees.
Su Lin felt that he had entered a membrane, and then his consciousness became in a trance.
……
Su Lin felt that he was being covered in viscous liquid, like a pool of blood in the abyss, leading him to fall.
Incredible sights flashed before his eyes, and for a moment he felt himself standing in the middle of the endless wilderness, and under the dim sky grew the only giant tree, which poked out of the boundless swamp, and its branches hung with fruits, each of which was a pale human body.
The next moment he stood in a dilapidated ancient temple, the dome of the ancient temple was constantly overflowing with liquid, it was bright red blood, surrounded by crows, and the broken Buddha statue left two lines of blood and tears on its face, all the way down, and the blood dripping from the dome converged into a river.
The next moment, a huge bell rang, like a bell at the end of the century, and with each of its roars, the world would collapse partially, be stripped away and turn into dust, and fall into the boundless void.
No matter how the scene changed, he could hear a voice hidden in his heart.
Don't suppress yourself and let your nature go.
That person is dead, what else do you care about? What else do you have to hold onto?
Don't you find this kind of life very boring?
But whenever he wanted to let out a roar, there was always another kind voice that told him to restrain himself.
"Be a normal person and live a normal and happy life!"
The owner of the voice came with light, like an angel of the kingdom of God, and his hands gently brushed his cheeks.
Those hands were so gentle, he raised his hand to grab it, wanted to hold the other party tightly, but he could only pass through the bubble.
People are like this, and sometimes, only by holding on to something can they confirm that they are alive.
After countless times of raising his hand and failing, he shouted loudly.
"Sister!"
Su Lin sat up suddenly, covered in sweat, he couldn't sweat so much when he ran ten times and 10,000 meters!
After he woke up, he immediately began to check the situation around him, and found that he was still in the school library, he was in a group of bookshelves, and the air was filled with fog, making it difficult to see the distant scene clearly.
The overhead light was dim and flickering, making it very uncomfortable to look at.
At this time, the rows of bookshelves in the library were like a huge labyrinth, and he was in the middle of it.
At this moment, he suddenly heard a mechanical female voice in his ear.
【Player 174123885, welcome to the origin game】

[For specific details, please call out the menu in your consciousness to view]
Su Lin calmed down first, reconfirmed the security situation around him, and came to a corner, leaning his back against the wall, before trying to call the menu.
An illusory translucent light curtain appeared, showing his personal information, but he ignored it first, his own situation was clear, he had to find out what was going on with this origin game, and the details of the "copy" he was in.
Once he found the quest details field, he clicked on it.

Su Lin closed the menu, and he had a general idea of the situation he was in.
He should have been involved in some supernatural event, although I don't know what this origin game is all about, but the current situation of this dungeon is still very understandable.
To put it simply, he may be hunted down by unknown enemies next, as long as he survives a certain amount of time.
He stepped out from behind the bookshelf and walked around to the side of the entrance to the hall on the first floor, looking carefully at the electronic screen hanging in front of the hall on the first floor, which was written in dark red to indicate the current time.
【10:31:28】
It doesn't seem like I've been in a coma for long.
He didn't try to open the library door and escape, and judging by the supernatural powers he had been exposed to, it was clearly not a prank.
Since it was a dungeon game and the venue was limited to the library, it was impossible for him to leave the library easily.
Just as he was thinking this, he suddenly saw two people running down the stairs and rushing to the door of the library, looking panicked.
A man and a woman frantically swiped their student cards and pressed the button on the wall, but the automatic door did not respond.
Su Lin was very surprised to recognize the boy, mainly because the other party was too famous, it was Zhang Jianwen, the president of the school's taekwondo club.
I saw that he was furious, ran to the study area and picked up a stool, wanting to smash the door.
However, the stool slammed against the automatic door, making a loud noise, but the automatic door did not move.
The automatic door is originally tempered glass, and when it was just smashed, it seemed to show a glimmer of light, like a barrier.
Su Lin secretly cursed the fool in his heart, so he hid himself in the bookshelf group.
I already knew that there would be a chaser in the library, and it was really disgusting to make such a big move.
Personally, he wasn't very afraid of the hunt mentioned on the dungeon, but in the face of supernatural phenomena, he was in awe, and he would not act rashly until he confirmed the specific strength of those demon believers.
The couple at the door, who had calmed down a little after trying to no avail, sat down with their backs back to each other in the fog.
"Click-click-click-"
The sound of low footsteps rang out in the library, coming from the top of the staircase.
The footsteps were unhurried or fast, as precise as a machine, but the rhythm overwhelmed the couple at the gate.
Su Lin, who was hiding behind the bookshelf, also stared at the staircase closely, wanting to see what was coming down.
Zhang Jianwen is not a fool, no matter whether it is a person or a ghost, he will not sit still, stand up, take his girlfriend's hand and hide it in the bookshelf behind him.
At this moment, a figure stepped out of the corner of the staircase, wearing a coat like a puppet costume, with a terrible pig's head on it.
The pig's head was sewn and patched, and his face was covered with black threads, and his eyes, nose, ears and other holes were all sewn with black threads.
The wrapped parts of the body do not look like textiles, but are patchwork of some kind of animal skin.
The pig-headed man was holding a huge pig-killing knife, the blade was full of blood and coagulation, I don't know how much blood has been sticked, and I don't know how long it has not been washed.
Zhang Jianwen squatted down with his girlfriend in the corner between the two bookshelves, hoping not to be discovered by the pig-headed man, the other party's outfit, no matter how you look at it, looks like a killer.
Although he has practiced, this game is weird, and the other party is holding a murder weapon, no matter how you look at it, it is not a wise choice to fight with the other party, and if you can avoid it, you can avoid it.
The pig-headed man was still unhurried, and when he walked to the bookshelf where Zhang Jianwen and the two were hiding, he stopped in the corridor.
This caused both couples' breathing to stop, their hearts beating faster, and they prayed for each other to hurry over.
After all, the pig-headed man looks like his eyes are also sewn up, so he shouldn't be able to see them, right?
The pig-headed man stepped forward again, walking between the two bookshelves where the couple was hiding.
Just as the two lovers breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, suddenly the pig-headed man stopped, leaned back on one side, and the terrible pig's head looked crookedly at the bookshelf where the couple was hiding.
The black lines of the sealed mouth on the pig's head cracked, tearing the flesh and falling off, revealing the white teeth hidden behind it, and laughing silently.
