With the help of holographic simulation technology, players experience various scenes in the game as if they were there.

But "Pale Dawn" is a game with survival, thriller, and horror as its selling points, and the most players encounter in the game are heart-pounding situations, which will cause a lot of burden on the player's heart.

That's why the game has a heart rate monitoring system built into the program, which monitors the player's heart rate fluctuations at all times and uses this to assess the player's ability to accept and tolerate fears.

The heart rate test results affect the time between matches after each game is played.

In games, players with large heart rate fluctuations, or who stay in a fast heartbeat for long periods of time, generally have to wait for a longer matchmaking interval – up to 24 hours – to relieve the stress on their hearts.

However, because of Bai Ye's strange slow-down heartbeat symptoms, this precautionary measure of the game is useless to him, unless the game can encounter a situation that makes Bai Ye's heart rate break through the upper limit of ordinary people's heart rate......

However, thinking about it from another angle, if he could really encounter such a moment, it would instead cater to Bai Ye's original intention of playing this game, and he couldn't ask for it.

In addition, heart rate detection, like the degree of story cracking, is one of the main factors that determine the player's rating of passing the level.

Players who are brave and have a small heart rate fluctuation throughout the game will have an advantage over those with large heart rate fluctuations......

The evaluation in "Pale Dawn" is divided into 5 levels, namely: soul is not possessed, frightened, panicked, calm, and fearless.

Different evaluation levels will affect the rewards after passing the level.

These rewards include Escape Points and Escape Leaderboard Points, as well as the quality of the chests that can be obtained when reaching the 'Panic' rating level or higher, which can be used to open rewards, and so on.

Bai Ye received the highest level of 'fearless' evaluation in this novice teaching scenario, and if it weren't for the 'no profit' setting of novice teaching, he should have been able to get a lot of good rewards.

……

Choosing to exit the game scene, after the billowing black smoke, Bai Ye found himself standing in that hut again.

- System prompt: Congratulations! If you successfully reach the top 100 of the Escape Leaderboard, will your game nickname be displayed on the leaderboard?

Because he ended the hidden side quest [The Pursuit of the House Master] ahead of schedule, Bai Ye was rewarded with 5 points on the escape list, which made him already among the top 100 in the escape list before the game was officially opened.

The yes or no option that popped up, Bai Ye chose the latter.

He hates the troubles that come with fame, preferring to play games alone and in a low-key manner.

- System Prompt: You have received 1 new letter in your mailbox.

As the prompt appears, a green arrow points to the yellow workbench in front of it, and in the upper left corner of the workbench there is a blue tin mailbox, which now reveals a half-white envelope, indicating that there are new unread letters inside.

Bai Ye walked to the workbench to check;

- You received a new letter from Explorer Rick Jones, did you read it?

After choosing to read, an ancient handwritten letter slowly unfolded in front of Bai Ye's eyes.

'Hey, dear man.

I am writing this letter to inform you that the research on the sculpture and the gem is well underway, and I have invited a number of well-known archaeologists from all over the world to help unravel the secrets behind the sculpture and the monster, and I believe that it will not be long before I can give you a satisfactory answer.

Also, do you remember when I said I was going to introduce you to the Explorers' Guild?

I told my talk, and even though I hadn't interviewed you in person and heard little about your adventures, the old guys in the guild gave me enough face.

Now I solemnly inform you that you have become a glorious explorer!

The medal representing the status of an explorer has also been sent to you with the letter, and I am sure that you will live up to the title of explorer.

- Your friend, Rick Jones. ’

There is also an option to 'read attachments' below the letter, and after clicking on it, the system prompts Bai Ye to obtain a special item - [Explorer's Medal].

It was a bronze goshawk-shaped medallion, only half the size of a palm, and it looked inconspicuous.

【Order of Third-Rate Explorer】

[Type: Rather rare identification object]

【Load: 1】

[Introduction: This medal issued by the Explorers Guild represents the association's initial recognition of your adventurous ability.] Just carry it on your body (whether in your bag or wear it on your body) and you'll earn a special status as 'Explorer'. 】

[Special Identity: Explorer: Using this identity will increase the effect of your gaze stance passively by 10%, you can learn identity-related abilities in the Explorers Guild, and at the same time, it also has a small chance to let you find hidden 'treasure' clues in the scene!] 】

The 'special identity' setting in Pale Dawn is somewhat similar to the 'profession' in ordinary online games, which can give players additional attribute improvement and ability learning.

But unlike the fixed class system in ordinary online games, in Pale Dawn, players can have an infinite number of identities - as long as you have enough strength and luck to get them.

Of course, the 'special status' usually comes from some hidden quests and rewards for high-level clearance evaluations, which is not easy to obtain for ordinary players.

"Third-rate?"

Bai Ye noticed the words in the item's introduction, "This level shows that there is still room for further improvement in this identity." ”

Although the effect attached to this identity seems to be low and vague on the surface, it also gives some value to look forward to later growth.

Next, Bai Ye casually flipped through his attribute bar:

[ID: White Night]

[Personality: None (will be generated in the first evaluation after 3 games)]

[Special Status: Explorer]

[Personality: None (at least 1 personality and 1 identity are required to be combined)]

[Physical Condition: Good]

[Posture control: Concentration LV1, Active LV1, Cautious LV0]

(There are no character levels in Pale Dawn, nor are there traditional basic stats like strength, agility, intelligence, etc.) Instead, there is proficiency in the act of 'posture control'. Each character can only play in one of three postures in the game, and relies on switching positions to cope with various situations encountered in the game scene. ）

【Skill: None】

[Escape Point: 100]

[Escape Rank Points: 5]

Flipping down to the bag page, it was still empty, and he didn't see the kitchen knife he had been carrying on his body.

The equipment, props, and items in Pale Dawn are all differentiated by 'whether they can be taken out of the game scene', and although the items that are obtained and will be introduced may not always be carried out of the game scene, those things that will not be displayed will never be carried out.

That kitchen knife is a good example.

……

Although Bai Ye's extended version of the novice teaching had spent a whole night in the game, when he quit the game, he found that only two hours had passed in the real world.

'Virtual Time Compression Technology' – No matter how long virtual time you experience in the game, the real world will never pass by two hours.

This is one of the main differences between holographic simulation technology and ordinary VR technology.

It was now half past six in the evening, and Bai Ye put down the holographic helmet and felt that he could prepare in advance.

At seven o'clock in the evening, he was going out to work.
