Chapter 2: Silent Hills

Donghai City, among the villas of Zhang Yi's family.

After putting the ring in his hand, Zhang Yi opened the immersive holographic game login compartment in the room, and in the electronic screen, Zhang Yi found the option of "Deathland".

When Zhang Yi retrieved the game "Deathland", the login screen of the game was grayed out, which meant that it was a game that could not be logged in.

In this regard, Zhang Yi was not in a hurry, according to the information he had obtained, once the players of "Deathland" were declared dead in the main world, his login device would be regarded as an ownerless thing, and someone else could log in to it!

In the secluded immersion game field, a barren mountain manor with a strange green light appeared in Zhang Yi's field of vision, and a "Notice to Players" compiled in Chinese and English was enlarged to the size of a coffin board, blocking the player's view of the villa behind him.

Zhang Yi carefully read the notice to players in "Deathland", and then he stretched out his right hand and completely pasted his palm wearing a registration ring on the notice book.

This is a login confirmation process, Zhang Yi silently prayed in his heart, looking forward to "Deathland" to determine that his login is valid!

Faintly, Zhang Yi felt the coldness of his palms, and it was also at this time that a breeze blew beside Zhang Yi. Faced with the inexplicable changes in the surrounding environment, Zhang Yi's attention suddenly focused.

Time passed little by little, but Zhang Sheng's hand still did not leave the "Notice to the Player", the first line of the "Notice to the Player" reads, "This is a real death game, the player will gain a lot of wealth and knowledge in the game, and at the same time may die", the blood-red text seems to mock the ignorant loginer.

Could it be that he still doesn't have the qualifications to log in to Deathland? Just when Zhang Yi began to have doubts in his heart, all of a sudden, there was a strange change in the immersive game warehouse, and a mysterious white smoke made a sizzling sound, completely enveloping Zhang Yi.

For a moment, Zhang Yi only felt that his body had lost its weight and was falling down in the air.

For a long time, a cold female voice sounded in Zhang Yi's ears.

"Welcome to Deathland!"

"Number 1007 player, welcome to the game again."

"Since the system has detected a significant change in the identity information of the logged-in player, in the next 24 hours, the system will force the onboarding tutorial to open until the player completes the beginner mission before starting the game."

"The system has detected that the former player of 1007 has been declared dead, and the new successor is being confirmed!"

"Player Zhang Yi, male, 26 years old, 183 cm tall, 75 kg in weight, professional surgeon, game character is being generated."

"The system prompts that since you are logging in to the game for the first time, in the next 24 hours, you will be forced to do a tutorial by the system, if you have any doubts, please quit the game directly."

"Player Zhang Yi inherits the No. 1007 login, and after the rookie trial, according to the trial evaluation you obtain, you will randomly get part of the game points and item inheritance rights of the original player No. 1007."

"Player Zhang Yi, you can set an ID name for your game character."

"Based on your experience in previous online games, as well as your real-life occupation, the system recommends an ID for you."

"Shadow dancer on the tip of the knife, please use it!"

When Zhang Yi heard this, he was inexplicably panicked, he didn't expect that this "Deathland" could retrieve his real career information in the present world in a silent moment.

How powerful is the game's server?

"Please use the ID recommended by the system, the system will formulate a trial plan for you according to the player's strengths to help you grow professionally!"

Zhang Yi was silent for a long time and chose to agree!

"You've chosen to use a system-recommended ID, and you have the option to anonymously anonymize your real name when you interact with other players."

"This trial copy is not anonymous!"

"Do you want to quit the game?"

Faced with the system's inquiry, Zhang Yi did not answer this time.

After a while, Zhang Yi's body sank, his feet stepped on a withered yellow fallen leaf, beside him, the diffuse mist dissipated, and a silent villa surrounded by birch forests and standing in the mountains appeared in front of Zhang Yi.

Looking at everything in front of him, Zhang Yi looked around in surprise.

At this time, the system voice sounded again: "The player's 'exit' confirmation timed out, and the Deathland Newcomer Trial now begins." ”

"The player triggered the Trials story ......"

"Ignorant adventurer, in search of some mysterious truth, you and your companions have lived in a mysterious manor in the mountains, and in this silent mountain villa, it seems that some unknown secret is hidden waiting for you to discover."

"Your companions have not returned since they left the lodge, and you have appeared alone in the birch forest in search of them."

"Quest Requirements: Return to Silent Hills before dark and spend 24 hours in the lodge to solve the mysteries of the lodge."

"Novice Trial, start now!"

In the endless darkness, the cold breath fell on Zhang Yi's skin, and for a while, Zhang Yi couldn't help but shiver.

"Wow......"

In the middle of the forest, when it was nearly dusk, a crow flew high and made a strange cry in the forest.

Zhang Yi stepped on the fallen leaves, and after the sound of the system ended, only the sound of the wind was left in Zhang Yi's ears, and the strange sound from the depths of the darkness.

Is the Novice Trial?

Although he has never logged into Deathland, Zhang Yi still knows that this is a horror game composed of countless independent horror worlds. After players log in to Deathland, the system will evolve a new horror world for players to choose from based on all their previous experience and game evaluations.

Only players who complete the mission can survive Deathland for a long time, and bring the technology, secrets, and even yin-yang spells they have obtained from the horror worlds to the main world to develop and grow their own power.

No one knows who developed this real death game in the first place, and its existence is like a mysterious heavenly curse, and no country or government can completely destroy it.

Once the game of death is opened, there is no way to stop, and every month, at least one horror trial needs to be completed! If players fail to enter the game as scheduled, the login ring attached to the player's hand will be a "fatal punishment" on behalf of the game!

Zhang Yi walked in the barren forest, and in the distance was the Silent Mountain Villa mentioned in the Novice Trial.

Zhang Yi knew that this was the first test he faced after logging into the game, and only by completing the rookie test task of the system's forced trip could he enter a broader game space and look for any clues related to his sister's disappearance!

At this moment, Zhang Yi was wearing a simple suit pants and a white T-shirt on his upper body, without an imaginary newcomer's backpack or a weapon to take advantage of.

Walking in the woods, I vaguely spread my wings and had a bad feeling, and I always felt that there seemed to be a pair of eyes staring at me in the dark.

Is it a delusion? As a young surgeon, Zhang Yi's ability to perceive and predict is far beyond that of ordinary people of the same age, and the strange aura of the dark forest tells Zhang Yi that he is currently in an unknown and dangerous world that may break out at any time.

The death of a player character in Deathland will result in the loss of the life of the lander, so Zhang Yi is quite cautious!

Sand, sand......

Stepping on the fallen leaves all over the ground, Zhang Yi continued to move towards the mountain villa a few hundred meters away.

The mountain villa in the distance was shrouded in a black fog, and there seemed to be a faint light at the gate of the manor. Zhang Yi quickened his pace and hurried towards the villa, hoping that in that place, he could meet the living people.

But it was also at this time, while hurrying, suddenly Zhang Yi seemed to step on something.

With a click, Zhang Yi almost twisted his ankle, and after a while, a large number of withered yellow fallen leaves were abandoned, and a rusty firewood knife appeared in Zhang Yi's field of vision.

"You found a broken wood knife to pick up."
