The next day, early in the morning.

Boss Xia Ning, who was still asleep, was woken up by the system's electronic human voice.

"Hello host, film and television section: "After the lights off" was counted yesterday, congratulations on getting a scare value of 567990 and an income of +56799 (there is a difference between the scare value and income in each section)"

"Hello host, game section: VR horror experience hall yesterday scare value statistics completed, congratulations on getting a scare value of 1010, income +10100 (there is a difference between the scare value and income of each plate)"

"Hello host, in view of the customer feedback effect of video and game categories, congratulations on your promotion to LV1, obtaining the title of Beginner Horror, and obtaining a silver treasure chest (not claimed), the scary road is long and rugged, I hope to make persistent efforts to create more horror and thriller works."

"Hello host, your level has reached LV1, the weekly random task is opened, the system will provide three different tasks at the beginning of each week, the host can choose by himself, and you can get the corresponding gift by completing the task, if you don't choose, it will be deemed to have given up, and the new week of unfinished tasks will be automatically canceled, and it will never appear after that."

"Hello host, your level reaches LV1, the system mall is opened, and the host can use the scare value to buy the required equipment or skills in the LV1 commercial district, and more commercial districts need to continue to upgrade the level before it can be opened."

When the voice ended, Boss Xia directly turned over from the bed with a carp, made himself a cup of tea, and then sat on the recliner and looked at the virtual screen in mid-air with relish.

What a bumper harvest!

The success of "After Turning Off the Lights" and the experience hall not only brought him scare points and income, but also promoted the level to LV1, which he didn't expect.

"It's really good, if it goes on like this, you can consider making the experience hall bigger."

The weekly random quests and the opening of the mall can be said to be a tiger for Xia Ning at this time, he can get more terrifying skills and equipment he wants, and his idea of making the experience hall bigger is more confident.

Before, he was most worried about the problem of funds and equipment in the experience hall, but now that it is good, both can be solved.

"Let me see what's in the mall."

Click on the mall logo of the system, and suddenly a column of product information appears in front of you.

"Beginner horror drawing skills: depict horror with a brush, present horror from paper. Sells for 95,000 scare. ”

"Elementary horror voice acting skills: the devil's whisper, the devil's poisonous whisper. Sells for 90,000 scare. ”

"The first-level horror game "Barren Mountain Apartment": You are separated from your friends, you strayed into an apartment in the barren mountain, and the seemingly kind boss stood in front of your room door in the early hours of the night... Price: 198,000 Scare. ”

...

So much?

The variety of commodities dazzled Boss Xia, and after looking at it for a while, he had a general understanding in his heart.

The commercial area of LV1 can be basically divided into three categories: skills, equipment, and games.

The skill class is similar to the previous low-level horror acting, and you can exchange the fright value for the corresponding scary skills, and the same is true for the equipment class and the game class, but the price is quite high, especially the game class, which is much higher.

"Why are they so expensive? A first-level horror game costs hundreds of thousands, and the scare value is too pitiful. "Seeing the high price, Boss Xia is also quite painful, and he is currently only about 500,000 scare value, if you really want to exchange it, buy one or two goods, and your pocket will be empty.

I continued to flip through the pages, and they were basically low-level or first-level and second-level kinds, and there was no higher level.

It seems that if you want to get better equipment and skills, you need to continue to improve the horror and scary aspects in order to open more shopping districts.

"Forget it, you can't eat it and become a big fat man, this matter is not in a hurry." Xia Ning didn't care much about those more advanced items, for him, now was just the beginning of the horror journey, he had to eat a bite, and the experience hall had just opened, so stable development was the most important thing.

Putting away the mall, he opened the weekly random quest again.

Rather than exchanging scare points for goods, he wants to complete tasks in exchange for prizes, at least without spending money.

"Random Mission One: Nightmare on the Street

Mission Description: If you want to become a qualified terrorist, you must learn to learn the skills of scaring people from life.

Rewards: 5000 scare points, a silver treasure chest, and a chance to draw five consecutive draws of random treasure chests (with a high probability of winning the treasure chest)"

Forehead...

After reading all the tasks, Boss Xia was silent for a while, he really wanted to say:

As for the task, you can be grounded, but you can't be grounded, these three tasks are more or less anti-human.

Take the first one, it's all about death.

What scares a hundred passers-by on the street, doesn't the system know that it is now a society governed by the rule of law?

Not to mention scaring a hundred people, even one person, I estimate that I will have to be criticized and educated for several days.

There is a third one, suppressing peers, or within a month.

If I had such a bad experience, would I still go bankrupt in my previous life?

Boss Xia complained about the system in his heart, he thought that what he had done before was quite underworld, but he didn't expect the system to be more ruthless.

However, one yard is one yard, and the task still has to be chosen, after all, the task reward is still very fragrant.

After thinking about it for a moment, he still felt that the second task was more normal, at least it was just painting.

In addition, there are a lot of people who like horror paintings on the Internet nowadays, and most viewers like to bring a different kind of pleasure to themselves through the fear in them, which is a bit like the fiery pursuit of delicacies by gourmets.

At first, Xia Ning couldn't understand it, but in the years when he devoted himself to horror research, he really felt the charm from horror, which was intoxicating.

"Then choose it." Click on the random task two, Boss Xia feels that this task is at least feasible, and the big deal is that he can go to the mall to exchange for the primary horror painting skills, and he can still complete the task.

The screen is converted, and there is an additional progress bar under the taskbar, which is dedicated to recording the progress of the task, which can be viewed at any time, which Xia Ning is still quite satisfied with.

Shut down the system, Xia Ning drank the tea in the cup, and went to school after a little tidying up, there are still two professional classes today, and it is not too late to go to business in the afternoon, and the experience hall is not so hot at the moment, and you don't need to be in the store all the time.

After class in the morning, he had just packed up his notes when he received a phone call.

The name of the person who came was a little unfamiliar, called Zuo Xin.

After thinking for a while, Xia Ning finally remembered the name, this guy met at a previous horror game exchange meeting, and he was a horror game enthusiast.

At that time, the conversation was not bad, so I added friends, and the relationship was okay, and I didn't know what to do with myself this time.

"Hey, Zuo Shao, what are you looking for me?"

"Lao Xia, Lao Xia, do you have time? I have something to ask you. The voice on the other end of the phone was urgent, as if something was in trouble.

"What's wrong? You say slowly, I have a lot of time right now. Quickly put the notes into the bag, Xia Ning's tone became a little more serious.

"That's... Do you know a makeup artist? I'm now managing a horror movie crew, but the makeup artist can't come temporarily, and there is a scene that is about to be filmed, but the actor doesn't wear makeup, so he definitely can't shoot, and now the director is getting angry, and I can't help it, so I can't come to you, I know you know a lot of people, so I want to know if there's a way. Zuo Xin said very helplessly, the makeup artist had already agreed, but because of money, he suddenly couldn't say it.

It's hard for him to do it now, where to find a makeup artist for a while.

"Makeup artist?" Xia Ning was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Don't worry, I want to find a way." ”

Shooting a movie has high requirements for makeup artists, for example, a youth campus film, makeup must be in place, how to show the youthful vitality of the campus, how to reveal the youthfulness of the character, all have a lot to do with makeup artists.

Not to mention horror films, it is not enough to rely on the actors' excellent acting skills, but also with the help of facial makeup, otherwise it is difficult to present the thriller effect you want to achieve.

Xia Ning was silent for a while, clicked on the skill section that the system already had, and licked his dry lips: "Where are you now, I'll take care of the makeup." ”
