The blinding whiteness made Eric slowly wake up from his coma. He opened his eyes to see the shadowless light of an operating room. The strong smell of dust and rust filled his nose.
Sitting up, Eric looked around and immediately understood: he had been pulled into the real-life horror game, "Hell," that had come into existence three years ago! This game continuously dragged humans into a world of horror, where they had to complete terrifying missions broadcasted live on the game's virtual platform, "Eternal Night Camp."
Success meant rewards and the chance to grow stronger. Failure meant permanent loss of life until death. The life bar shown in the data wasn't just for the game character—it was Eric's actual life bar!
After confirming there was no immediate danger, Eric opened his mission panel.
Copy: Colossus Hospital (Novice)
Main Mission: Escape from Colossus Hospital
Task Reward: 25 experience points
Difficulty: Hell
Note: The difficulty of the novice dungeon is neutralized, and monster resistance is reduced by 50%.
Introduction: You are randomly assigned to the Hell difficulty dungeon based on your ability. I wish you a happy game!
"The novice dungeon at Hell difficulty... this looks very dangerous, so I have to be careful!" Eric murmured to himself. He stood up from the tattered iron bed and stretched his muscles. Everything was intact. He was in a state of madness.
Eric walked to the broken retro glass window and glanced at the hospital's exterior. A faint dark red light flashed in his eyes. Suddenly, he began receiving some unstable data.
Unknown Shadow: Danger
Note:--
Wall: Neutral
Note: It cannot be climbed over or destroyed.
Door: Neutral
Note: Access card required.
"An access card?" Eric touched his chin. These data, from nowhere, revealed important information. To escape the hospital, he needed an access card.
Pushing the door carefully, Eric entered a dark corridor. Pale lights flickered in the distance, and a sinister wind blew through. Such a scene would paralyze ordinary people with fear.
Yongye Camp Live Broadcast Hall
Strange, there's a newcomer with a spiritual value of 101?!
WHAT? Isn't the game's spiritual power cap at 100?
The highest player I know has 100, called Dragon Emperor Demon God. Not from our Bone Area, but first in the overall Blood Area list.
Is there a BUG in the system?
Look! This unlucky newbie's dungeon is actually the Giant Elephant Hospital?
Liangliang, this newcomer is doomed from the start!
What's his name?
Eric.
Many players in Eternal Night Camp clicked into Eric's live broadcast room, eager to see how he would meet his end.
Eric continued down the hallway, past peeling paint and mildew-covered floors. The hospital had clearly been abandoned for years. He stopped at the door of room 409, where an emaciated old man lay, tubes inserted into his body, pleading for help.
"Young man... help me... I need to use the toilet. Can you help me up?" the old man asked, his voice frail.
Eric scrutinized the old man. Data resurfaced in his mind:
Old Man Leo: Advanced Danger!
Note: Unable to move, slow speed.
"A trapping-type monster with super-strong combat attributes but unable to move?" Eric mused. He stepped into the room, scalpel in hand, and approached from behind.
The old man's smile froze as Eric pressed the scalpel to the back of his head. "I'll ask you a question. Answer correctly, and I'll take you to the toilet. Answer wrong, and I'll cut off your head."
Confusion filled the old man's eyes, and the live broadcast room erupted in astonishment.
Eric posed his question: "How many leg hairs do I have?"
Before the old man could respond, the scalpel pierced his skull. The old man begged for another question, which Eric granted: "Where is the hospital access card?"
"There are three... One is in the logistics department, one on the director, and..." the old man managed before twitching violently. Eric's soul weapon unsealed, causing the scalpel to deal extra damage to ghosts.
The old man revealed his tragic story, asking Eric to kill the hospital director in exchange for a real estate certificate. With the old man's passing, Eric received a new mission and the certificate.
