In July, the weather was unbearably hot.

Jiangcheng Third Hospital.

Li Guanyu was lying in a sick bed, and this damn drought day was even more harsh torture for him.

He, a prospective college student, was hospitalized in a car accident a few days after graduation.

However, Li Guanyu was not idle, and in two months, he successfully got tired of playing all the games he wanted to play.

At this time, the QQ message flashed.

Old girl: Brother, aren't you bored? I have a game beta qualification here that I don't know who sent it, do you want to try it?

Closed beta games?

It's all half-finished, who plays that thing......

However, Li Guanyu looked at the game library that he had played all over the handheld, and silently replied to the old girl, "Send it over".

"You have a new email."

Tsk, it's still forwarded as it is...

glanced at the original sender, it was just a string of numbers, just like the old sister said, it was sent by the living person inexplicably.

No way, his old sister Li Koi, no wonder there is a "Koi" in her name, and she often encounters some strange things.

The rich mother-in-law who came to find her long-lost daughter, the rain of banknotes falling from the sky, and all kinds of small animals running from nowhere......

Of course, these things are all handled by Li Guanyu in the end, including the current game installation package and the beta activation code.

Old girl: Brother, did you get it?

Li Guanyu: This game called "Xingshi"?

Old girl: I don't know, anyway, you can play by yourself.

Li Koi obviously didn't take this game seriously, but Li Guanyu had long adapted to her character.

The only thing that can make Li Koi feel good in this world is probably whether he, the old brother, has hidden private money.

Li Guanyu turned off QQ, looked at the game that had been installed, opened it, entered the internal test code, and started the game "Xingshi".

The interface is simple, there are no color maps, no 3D, and no pixels.

Lines of text appear in the center of the black screen, just the simplest square Chinese characters, telling the story of the game.

"You wake up, stand up, and find yourself sitting on a deserted mountain road."

"A glowing stone lamp next to it dispelled the darkness for you."

"You remember why you're here."

"You are a stranger who has been cursed and brought to a foreign land, Lethe, the rumored land of carefree and a refuge for the cure.

"The earthly gods fall on the last day, the authority that shelters the earth falls, the myth of the heroic spirit disappears, and the earthly world becomes a demon that rages wildly with demons."

"Lethe City, which stands on the border, is a city that was born before the fall of the old gods, and it is also a peaceful place for the lonely soul."

"But you are not alone, you are only moving forward for salvation and understanding that the secret shackles buried deep beneath this land have become dark shadows."

"Take on your curse and embark on a journey, man of the earthly world who has a bumpy road ahead."

"The smoke of the past tells the remnants of the past, and the new earthly man embarks on the path of salvation."

It's a bit of a fun game.

After a large part of the background of the previous story was narrated, Li Guanyu also figured out the path of this game, and put away his original contemptuous thoughts.

Although this is just a word game, the background setting is quite huge, and several pieces of information describe an ancient mysterious world to Li Guanyu.

His character is called "The Man of the World", a stranger who has come to this border land "Lethe" in search of a way to lift the curse.

Tap anywhere to "get up" and start your journey. ”

Fingertips touch the screen.

The game continues.

"You stood up on the trail."

"The tranquil world shows you its full picture, gloomy shadows, ghosts and corpses, ghosts and spirits, the world that has lost order is shrouded in black mist, and only an eternal pale moon shines on the world."

"In the black smoke rising everywhere, you are alone, you don't see the lonely stars, the lonely moon snuggles up to you sadly, the grass leaves and flowers are restless, and there are shadows hidden under your smile."

"The dead are not appeased, and the living are restless."

"Before you start your journey, you raise your right arm, and you have a red rope on your wrist and a small wooden piece hanging from it."

"You remember, this is a shrine where the Susu is located, and the Suxiang who lives in it is ......"

"Wanderer, with a unique spatial perception that can make good use of every bit of space, has a talent for heart: can carry more items, and can get tendency hints when encountering road options."

"The person who is a corpse has a calm temperament and careful observation, precise movements, high concentration, and a talent for mental appearance: increase the probability of discovering abnormal details and reduce the increase in magic value."

"Bad people, people who have well-trained thinking skills, the physical fitness of people who are able to deal with good things in the market, and have the talent of heart: deduce the details and truth of the incident through the accumulated clues."

"Please note that the choice is irreversible, please make your choice carefully, it will determine your future path."

Oh, what do you mean by asking me to choose my initial innate ability?

Li Guanyu has also played similar group running games, and he has also been a KP in the forum, and he knows that unlike the desktop running group, forum group sticking is more popular.

Do you choose one of the three?

Wanderer, let's rule it out first, the road options are unknown, and as for more inventory, it's okay to look at the late stage.

As for the "mortuary" and "bad guys...... Li Guanyu thought for a moment, it seems that the "corpse man" is more inclined to the fine series, while the "bad guy" is more similar to... Mystery Detective?

To summarize the core of the two:

The person who is the corpse discovers the details of the anomaly and controls the demonization value.

Bad people, physical fitness, reasoning skills.

Magic Value?

Li Guanyu's eyes were locked on these three words, and he finally chose "the person who killed the corpse".

According to his previous game experience, in the worldview involving mystery and weirdness, the magic value should be similar to the SAN value, which is the absolute core parameter.

He doesn't know much about the game world yet, and choosing this ability should be very helpful for getting through the novice period.

Once you've made your choice, the text continues to flash.

"You raise your right hand, and the 'Corpse Man' niche in your hand is glowing with moonlight, mysterious and quaint."

"The newborn master, in the future, this will be your appearance, the nine phases of the birth, one of which is the heart."

"Energetic earthly man, embark on your path of salvation."

"Because of the curse, you can fall into demonization at any time, so be careful not to increase your demonization value too much."

It's this magic value again, and it seems that his choice is not wrong.

"The Cursed Earthly Man" Li Guanyu bowed slightly, although the game had a simple picture and a direct and rough content, it unexpectedly aroused his interest.

Just at the beginning, the game gave him a unique sense of experience, as if he was both a witness to the journey and a listener to the story.

The dusty past opens its doors to him, and the mystery of the past comes to him.

The first impression is not bad, even very good, and I have the urge to continue playing.

Li Guanyu was about to continue the game, when he keenly noticed the anomaly.

The first thing that appeared abnormal was his world, no, it should be his eyes.

He was moderately short-sighted, and when he didn't wear glasses, the world was like a veil, and the picture quality was automatically frosted.

But at this time, he found that the blur was gone, and he could see the fine lines on the opposite wall, and even the words on the sign on the corner of the far street outside the window:

Adult product stores.

A man walks into the store, unaware that he is being watched.

the groove, this clarity ...... Open SSVIP, right?

Li Guanyu felt as if his eyesight had returned to the level of kindergarten.

And that's not all.

Raising his right hand, there was a circle of red rope on his wrist, and a small wooden piece hung from the red rope.

Li Guanyu was stunned and flipped through the previous game record.

"Before you start your journey, you raise your right arm, and you have a red rope on your wrist and a small wooden piece hanging from it."

“…… The 'man of the corpse' niche in his hand is glowing with moonlight, mysterious and elegant. ”

Wrists, red ropes, small wooden pieces, niches?

Li Guanyu gasped, feeling a chill rush up his spine.

Heaven seems to have played a big joke on him, and the items in the game have actually come - reality?

Why is this happening, I have encountered some kind of supernatural force?

Li Guanyu didn't think about it for too long, and the nurse pushed the door in.

There was sweat on the forehead, the hair was messy, and a few were still sticking to the wet sweat; The corners of the eyes are raised, the cheeks are slightly red, and there is a light red mark on the side cheek; The lipstick on the lips is slightly pale in some places, and the neckline is not tightly tied......

Li Guanyu felt the need to call the hospital leaders to praise her.

When taking care of patients, he can also find time to communicate with people in depth, and his time management level is like a master.

At the same time, Li Guanyu noticed that his observation skills had improved significantly, and for at least two months, he had always thought that the other party was a meticulous and conscientious cold nurse.

This change ......

Li Guanyu's gaze shifted to the description in the game.

"The Corpse Man, you have a calm temperament and careful observation, precise movements, high concentration, and a talent for physiognomy: increase the probability of discovering abnormal details and reduce the increase in demonization value."

Coincidence?

Li Guanyu's eyes shrunk, no, this is obviously not a coincidence.
