"How did I get here?"
Chen Bei, a young man, frowned and looked around.
It was a small room with bare walls. He was sitting on a single bed, beside which was a bedside table, and there was a window with iron bars in the shape of a square grid.
Outside the window, it was foggy and chaotic, with a faint glimmer of light.
The wooden door was closed and the room was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
Chen Bei had clearly been on duty at the funeral parlor before, but when he opened his eyes, he found himself here, which was extremely sudden.
Could it be... a supernatural phenomenon?
As if to confirm his thoughts.
[Welcome to the Dormitory Survival Game!]
[Here, you will face life-and-death challenges. Once you die, it will be a real death.]
[Each player will be bound to a dormitory. This is your residence and also your shelter.]
[This round of the game lasts for 4 days, known as the Fright Night.]
[When the time is up, as long as you are still alive, you will enter the next round of the game along with your dormitory.]
[The settings of each round of the game are different. This round of the game has a day-and-night alternation setting. It's relatively safe during the day, and players are encouraged to go out and explore to improve their strength.]
[At night, the danger level of the game will skyrocket, and it will be safer to hide in the dormitory.]
[Grasping the changes in the alternation of day and night is the key to clearing this round of the Fright Night game.]
[Please actively explore and discover more content by yourself. In this fast-paced era, there is no room for a too long novice tutorial.]
[Wish you all a pleasant game!]
A translucent panel emerged in front of Chen Bei, giving off a sense of technology.
Chen Bei's eyes widened.
Really? Is it for real?
Chen Bei was doubtful and continued to study it.
He clicked on the "×" on this initial interface.
After that, several new interfaces popped up.
[Data][Dormitory][Chat][Friends][Map][Others]
First, he clicked on the data function, and Chen Bei's personal information popped up.

——
"I usually exercise, but several of these values don't reach the standard line. It seems the standard is quite strict." Chen Bei grumbled inwardly.
Then he opened the [Dormitory] section.
——

——
No wonder it's called the Dormitory Survival Game. This dormitory itself also has data.
It's even possible to upgrade the dormitory!
It's just that I don't know what the upgraded dormitory will be like.
Bigger? Stronger?
Chen Bei then clicked on the other functions one by one to check them out.
The Friends column was empty.
For the Map function, only this one dormitory could be seen for the time being, and no more areas were visible.
There were some small functions in the Miscellaneous function, such as time, illustrated handbook data, taking photos and shooting videos and so on.
Among them, in the illustrated handbook category, various things that players had seen or handled could be seen. Since Chen Bei had just arrived, it was naturally empty inside.
He opened the Chat Channel.
There was a public channel No. 77 inside.
When he clicked in, it prompted that a virtual name needed to be set.
It was really just like a game.
Chen Bei thought for a moment and entered the name he had used when playing games before.
Zero Degree.
After entering the public channel, some people were chatting inside. It seemed that they were all in the same situation as him.
[What on earth is going on?]
[Who am I? Where am I? And who are you guys?]
[Who changed my clothes? You must take responsibility! I and the baby in my belly are all yours!]
[Wuwuwu, I'm so scared.]
[One punch for each whiny one. Get lost, all of you.]
[Hehe, is this a scamming group? Don't think I don't understand. Except for me as the victim, you're all liars! Keep acting, just keep acting.]
[I opened the door and gave it a try. The door was open and there was a corridor outside!]
[Since we can go out, why don't we just go home directly.]
Chen Bei scrolled through the messages and found that everyone's situation was pretty much the same.
He stood up, walked to the door, turned the doorknob and pushed gently.
The door was indeed open.
He pushed the door open a crack and took a look outside.
There was a very long corridor outside, dimly lit by faint lights.
Opposite the corridor diagonally, another door opened and the face of a woman with long hair popped out. She was quite good-looking.
The two of them happened to look at each other face to face.
The woman was flustered and quickly withdrew, slamming the door shut.
After a brief observation, Chen Bei also closed the door and went back into the room.
He still wanted to take another look at the chat in the group.
Suddenly, a new prompt box popped up.
[You have been pulled into the No. 77 Novice Game Management Group and obtained the identity of an intern administrator with the code name "Cherry Tomato".]
A new chat interface appeared!
On the left was the conversation, and on the right was the name.
At the top was the group owner, a Level 1 administrator with the code name "Durian".
After that were five Level 2 administrators.
There were ten Level 3 administrators.
At the bottom were as many as twenty intern administrators.
Chen Bei was one of them.
The code names of everyone in the group were all kinds of fruits, like pineapple, banana, pitaya and so on. There were all kinds of them. It was simply a fruit party.
Chen Bei's identity level was too low and the chat box was locked, which meant that he had no right to speak and could only lurk and watch.
Those administrators inside were discussing.
[These players are really slow. They haven't taken any action yet.]
[They're newbies. It's normal.]
[There isn't much time left for them. In one hour of real time, night will fall.]
[If they don't go to collect resources and improve themselves now, they'll have to rely on luck when it gets dark.]
[I can't wait to activate the zombies right now.]
[Don't rush. Take it slow. Our aim is to create an interesting game, not just for killing.]
[You interns in the group, remember this aim, always remember it!]
The chat was really lively.
Chen Bei was dumbfounded.
What was going on?
He not only entered the game as a player but also joined the management group as an administrator!
He got important information from the group.
It would be dark in an hour.
There were zombies in this game.
At night, the zombies would launch attacks.
This information outlined the outline of the game.
It was also mentioned in the management group that one should seize the time to enhance their strength and increase their chances of survival now.
Chen Bei closed his eyes, took a deep breath and digested this information.
Definitely, what he was encountering now was a supernatural event.
It wouldn't work to think about it in a conventional way.
Anyway, his past life was like a stagnant pool of water and he had long been tired of it.
Now he was facing a brand-new start.
Why not take this opportunity to live his life again.
It was as if a bundle of dry firewood had been lit and was burning vigorously.
Fight!
Just as the management group said, go out early to collect resources and improve strength!
Chen Bei opened his eyes. There was no longer confusion in his eyes. He walked towards the door.
There was a key inserted in the door lock, which was an easily overlooked detail.
Chen Bei pulled out the key, opened the door and went out. After closing the door, he locked it with the key.
This dormitory must be very important. Although it was empty inside, it was still necessary to protect it.
The corridor was dimly lit. The corridor lights above emitted a faint light and would go out occasionally.
Each dormitory had a number. The location where Chen Bei lived was Room 815.
This number might represent the fifteenth room on the eighth floor.
Chen Bei looked left and right. The corridor was empty. He was the first person here to come out and explore.
The management group had mentioned the key phrase "collect resources".
It seemed that he could only search around here and there.
Chen Bei walked towards the door opposite. The number 840 was written on the door.
Judging from the numbers, there were many rooms on each floor.
Dong, dong, dong...
Chen Bei knocked on the door tentatively. The sound of knocking broke the silence of the corridor.
