This script is adapted from the 1987 film "Demon Rangers" (The_Monster_Squad), and adds part of the setting of the "Castlevania" series, if there are similarities, it is not a coincidence.

[Script Victory Reward: Advance to the semifinals.] 】

[A brief introduction to the script will be played soon, and the game will start immediately after the playback.] 】

The system prompt when entering the script has not changed much from the previous rounds, except for the content of the "Script Victory Reward".

After the voice prompt, it's time for the opening CG.

Thundered......

With a thunderclap, the first CG shot appeared in front of the players' eyes.

In the center of the picture is a stone tombstone in the shape of a cross; Next to the tombstone, stands a tall, lifelike stone sculpture of the Grim Reaper...... The statue's face was hidden in shadows, but everyone watching the CG could feel as if he was staring at him.

After a few seconds. The camera begins to move slowly to the side, and a depressing, eerie, and grotesque background music also sounds very appropriately.

For the next ten seconds, the players follow the "camera view" all the way through a cemetery overgrown with grass and broken fences. Then, the focus of the picture shifts from far to near, focusing on a castle on a cliff in the distance.

[One night a hundred years ago, the legendary exorcist Van Helsing led a group of warriors to break into the castle of the demon king Dracula. 】

As the narrator says this, a series of fast, fluid action scenes are played in the footage.

But I saw the faces of a handsome middle-aged man in a white shirt and black vest with a beard, and three or five villagers armed with torches and shotguns...... They fought their way into the castle.

They blew open the gates of the castle with mining explosives and slashed all the monsters that stood in their way with knives and guns. With the help of the editor, he quickly came to an underground auditorium.

[At this time, Dracula had already obtained the legendary "Holy Amulet" and wanted to destroy it on the "Night of Resurrection". 】

[Once the holy amulet is destroyed, the balance between good and evil in the world will be broken, and it will fall into the grasp of the dark world. 】

At this point, Van Helsing had reached the middle of the auditorium, standing in front of a smooth bridge-shaped rock. In the cross-section of that rock, a palm-sized, crystal-like circular amulet was inlayed.

Van Helsing stared at the talisman for a few seconds, then turned back and shouted, "Yes." That's it, bring that girl here. ”

As he spoke, one of his companions brought a young girl in from outside the auditorium.

The girl looked sixteen or seventeen years old, blonde and blue-eyed. The dress is very modest. When she walked into the auditorium, there was obvious uneasiness and timidity on her slightly immature countenance, but there was still a hint of determination and courage in her eyes.

"Hopefully we'll be in time." Van Helsing saw the girl's appearance and wiped the blood that had been stained on his face at some point. Worriedly, he muttered.

[In order to stop this qiē, Van Helsing came to the amulet and preemptively launched the ritual. 】

Narration interjects. As soon as the camera turned, the girl at this time was already holding a scroll, facing the amulet, chanting a spell in a hurry.

The amulet also reacted to the incantation, and light continued to burst out from the crystal.

"Quick! Hurry up! Although it seemed a bit mean to do so, Van Helsing kept urging the already trembling girl to speed up her speech.

Bang -

At this moment, with a loud bang, the glass and door of the auditorium shattered open, and the ground under everyone's feet seemed to be alive.

"Ahh

"Help!"

Suddenly, several villagers standing in the back let out screams in their faces.

When they looked back, they saw that they had been dragged alive by the dried corpses pouring out of the cracks in the ground......

"Hurry up!" Seeing that the girl was stunned by the scene in front of her, Van Helsing shouted, "Otherwise, we will all die!" ”

The girl was drunk by him, and she also came back to her senses, and continued to read nervously.

[On the night of resurrection, a virgin recites a spell in front of the amulet to open the door of the limbo (i.e., the border of hell) and swallow every qiē around it. 】

said that the prison will be opened, and before the narrator could finish reading, the light on the amulet suddenly disappeared, and then ...... A black hole the size of a human eye appeared on the amulet and expanded its diameter to more than five meters in a matter of seconds.

"Oh! Oh, God! ”

"Run!"

Van Helsing's teammates began to flee in panic, because the suction of the black hole sucked the girl who recited the spell into it in five seconds.

However, it was all in vain......

Soon, the Gates of Hell expanded to unimaginable size, distorting the entire Great Hall, and indeed the entire castle space.

Nothing...... It is possible to get rid of its devouring.

"Van Helsing......" As Van Helsing was making his final struggle outside the black hole, a voice came into his ears, "Is this your way?" To stop me...... Are you willing to go to prison yourself? ”

"I just did what I had to do...... Van Helsing echoed in a loud voice, "...... And what I can do. ”

"Don't pretend to be a saint there!" The voice shouted, "You can't save everyone!" You can't even save the people who came with you! There was a palpable anger in his words, "My life is eternal!" One day, I will return to this world, and you ...... Will suffer forever in the border prison! ”

"Hmph......" Van Helsing laughed bitterly. I think...... When that day comes, someone will stand up and stop you. ”

After saying this, he was also swallowed by the black hole and disappeared without a trace......

Whoop -

In the next second, the picture went black, and the opening CG came to an abrupt end.

[Ninety-nine years later...... Today, after the narrator ...... left this last sentence, the script officially began.

【Main quest triggered】

[Kill four members of Blade.] 】

As soon as the players entered the script, the task hints also came directly.

But their attention wasn't on that, all the viewers who were watching the live stream...... Nor did they focus on that.

"Hey...... What is this for? When Feng Bujui regained his mobility, he found himself lying on a small bed.

The size of this bed is obviously not intended for adults. Nor are the sheets printed with cartoon characters...... But at this moment, Feng Bujue lying on this bed seemed to have no sense of disobedience, because ...... He has become a child.

[In this script, your age is set to be ten years old.] 】

[Your appearance, physical elements, skills, items, psionic weapons, title abilities, etc. will all change accordingly.] 】

Five seconds later, such a prompt rang in the ears of every player.

"It's good at playing......" Feng Bujue lifted the quilt and stood on the ground, "Is it really good to play the setting in the game......"

Actually, there's nothing wrong with that, anyway, both sides of the battle have all been turned into children, and it's still fair "in theory".

"Whew...... In a word. I'll take a look. After Feng Bujue stood still, he first observed the room he was in.

It's a typical room for a middle-class American child. Merely...... It is certainly not in the twenty-first century. There are no smartphones and tablets, nor desktop computers or handhelds in this room. Feng Bujue took a hasty look, except for the light bulb...... The only electronic devices that can be found in this room are an electric alarm clock and an old-fashioned radio.

As for other things...... It's basically a common thing in a boy's room. Dirty clothes littered everywhere, hats that are too ugly to wear, basketballs that look cheap at first glance, sneakers that don't need to be tied without putting them on, popular teenager toys in the eighties and nineties of the last century, and a bunch of baseball star cards (Jue Ge flipped through it. Discovering that the stars were unheard of in appearance and names, he deduced that they were some Earth-like planet in the Oververse), carpets with dried sauce and snack crumbs on every inch (there were at least six sources of these food scraps just by looking at them), embarrassing monster figurines, posters, and so on.

Feng Bujue estimated that if he looked carefully, he might be able to turn under the bed to find a small yellow book that was not very heavy (for him). But he didn't do that......

"After the body shrunk, the line of sight became lower......" After Feng Bujue finished his scanning, he walked to the front of the closet, "It's really a little unaccustomed." ”

said. He opened the door to the closet.

Unsurprisingly, this floor-to-ceiling wardrobe has a life-length mirror embedded in the inside of the door.

"Hmm......" Brother Jue looked at himself in the mirror and said in his heart, "It's worthy of a program developed by Woody...... Not only did I scale down the costumes and hairstyles of the characters, but I also perfectly reproduced my appearance, body shape, and height when I was 10 years old......"

Although his reaction when he looked in the mirror was not very strong, at this moment, the spectators who were watching the game were crazy with joy......

"Hahaha...... This...... This and this ...... "incoherent."

"That dead fish's eyes have changed at all! Hahahaha...... "There are spit types."

"Hahaha...... No more! I'm going to flip through the video and use his face as a meme! "There's something malicious.

"I really want to make such a mini clown costume for our children, it's so cute." There is a focus on the wrong type.

All in all, compared with Brother Jue's tepid attitude, the audience's response was extremely strong.

Other than that...... You should have realized that in addition to Feng Bujui, the other seven players in the script have also become children, and their changes are also very interesting......

As a result, in the next five to thirty minutes, the news about the game spread like a virus on the live broadcast platform, attracting a large number of viewers......

As soon as I heard that I could see the children's version of the contestants, the vast majority of the audience ...... And even the intelligence reconnaissance teams of some studios...... I can't help but come over and watch.

【Side quest triggered】

Just as Feng Buyi finished searching the room and was about to open the door to go out, the system prompt sounded again.

He opened the game menu, glanced at the contents of the taskbar, and saw - [Try to meet up with your teammates].

"Oh? Is this also a task? Feng Bujue muttered noncommittally, "In this kind of script where the teleportation points are separated, meeting with teammates is the basic routine......

"Huh?" Thinking of this, he seemed to think of something, and his eyes changed slightly, "Could it be ...... This task is hinting at ...... After the rendezvous, some kind of follow-up plot can be triggered? ”

Feng Bujue thought as he walked out of the room. The room was located at the end of the second floor, and after passing through the corridor several meters long, Jue Ge followed the stairs to the living room on the first floor.

"Hey~ my little pumpkin, look at you...... Why did you change your clothes early in the morning? He was greeted by a young mother in her thirties with golden wavy curls and a warm smile.

"Ah...... That's because I can't wait......" Feng Bujue used a child's unique cute voice, combined with his weak tone and "You're kidding me" expression...... The line was spoken.

While rummaging through the room upstairs, Feng unconsciously saw that the calendar on the wall was Halloween, and the script made it logical for him to dress in fancy dress in a good way.

"Huh...... My little darling, you are so cute. The "mother" came over and pinched Brother Jue's little face with both hands, and kissed him on the forehead, "Okay, mom is going to go out, breakfast is on the table, remember to go out after eating." ”

"Okay." Feng Bujue looked unhappy, and when the lady walked upstairs, he shook his head helplessly and walked towards the kitchen.

Five minutes later, wearing a safety helmet, knee pads, and a small bicycle with training wheels, Jue Ge appeared on the side of the road in the community. In his mouth...... I also took a piece of toast that was slightly charred.

"Is it better to occupy the TV station or the radio station...... "As he rides, he is mainly thinking about this question.

However, a figure suddenly appeared in the middle of the road to interrupt his thoughts.

"Hmph...... Seal it unconsciously! "But see, a teenager who is about 1.3 meters tall ...... led a big dog, stopped in front of Brother Jue, and said, "What a coincidence!" (To be continued......)
