    [Welcome to use our products, scanning has begun, please wait a moment. 】

    [Scanning completed, confirm citizen ID: SH13***313, name: seal; access device: NL2055 standard single player cabin, no abnormal external hardware detected; cardiopulmonary function is at normal value; neural connection program is ready, Please select the access type. 】

    [Access type is non-sleep mode, adjustment…After the adjustment is complete, please confirm loading the game or return to the superior option. 】

    [Program starts, loads the game after ten seconds…]

    After listening to the countdown, I quickly entered the world of the game. He was in an environment very similar to the elevator, but there was no floor button next to the door. On the wall on the right hand side is a 32-inch touch screen. The entire wall facing the door is a complete mirror that will take the player from head to foot.

    Unexpectedly, I looked at my own image in the mirror. At this moment, he became a three-dimensional CG character with super high pixels. The clothing on the body turned into a black long-sleeved T-shirt and trousers, nothing special. The face of the game character is almost the same as the one in reality, one meter and eight, the messy hair, and the facial lines are slightly feminine.

    With the support of the fourth-generation optical brain technology, the players in the neural connection game can get a five-sense experience that is full of chaos, but the game screen is still limited to CG images, and the player cannot be loaded into an environment similar to the real-life shooting effect.

    [Welcome to the game landing space, the following are all the game projects provided by Dream Company, please choose to login. 】

    The system beep sounds again at the ear, and an icon for selection appears on the touch screen next to it.

    "A total of one option, but also made such a landing space out…Does the company suggest that there will be a lot of games in the future…"I didn’t feel like thinking about it, and my finger clicked on the only game project on the screen, the thriller.

    [The age of the player who logged into the game must be over 16 years old. The company does not recommend users with heart, mental illness, or related medical history to contact the project. 】

    This sentence is displayed on the screen, and the system voice repeats again. Then there are three icons on the screen, one is “confirmed login” and the other is “cancelled”. There is also a very eye-catching side. Link option "Related Disclaimer".

    "Is mental illness…"Feng did not say to himself: "It's better to look at it."He chose the third, and the screen immediately popped up a dense text clause. A look at the scroll bar on the right would tell you that this disclaimer is very lengthy.

    When people play games, they see similar agreements or instructions. Eighty percent are directly turned off, or they are swept away, pulled to the end, and agree.

    But it’s not a normal person…

    He is twenty-four years old. The mystery novelist, his hobby is to shamelessly call himself "artist" or "big writer" when others ask him about his career, but these are not the key points, or let him talk about his anomalies.

    First of all, his original intention of playing this game is to "treat the disease". Of course, this disease is definitely not an internet addiction, but a real disease.

    About two months ago, Feng suddenly found that he had some abnormality. He spent three days or so and finally confirmed that he had lost the emotion of "fear."

    No matter how horrible the sound and the picture, he could not be stimulated. He watched horror movies and horror novels day and night, and tried to use his imagination to match himself to scare himself. The result was useless. It seems that there is a certain door in the mind that is closed. He clearly knows which elements are terror, and he fully understands where the scary points in the horror film are, but he just does not feel afraid.

    So he went to a nearby hospital. This is not going to go, it is really a big problem. Magnetic resonance showed a blurred shadow in his brain, just near the amygdala, and did not rule out the possibility of the tumor.

    Later, Feng Bu did not go to three or four large hospitals in the country, and no one could confirm the diagnosis. The proposed treatment methods were varied. After doing countless tests, after N consultations by N famous doctors, I couldn’t understand it basically…This disease is estimated to be in the annals of history. As a patient, there are two things to consider. First, which doctor should be given the right to naming the disease. Second, whether to donate the brain to medical experiments after death. It is also considered a contribution to the field of science.

    Two months later, the shadow of the brain did not change, did not deteriorate, did not shrink or disappear, and all other aspects of the body were completely normal and even healthy. After considering it, he simply refused treatment and was discharged directly.

    Since losing fear is the only symptom, and no one can explain whether he will die or how long it will die, then let it be resigned.

    One day, I accidentally saw the internal test advertisement of the thrilling paradise. At that time, the advertisement was “breaking through the traditional game mode, letting you feel desperate, horrified, and horrible, and experience an unprecedented gaming experience.”Then, he checked the setting instructions of the game, and also watched a well-produced, allegedly scared child promo, and noticed the link to "buy a new game cabin, give a beta account."

    Therefore, although it seems ridiculous, but the purpose of entering the game is not only "play", but also mainly want to be "scared." He is also the mentality of a dead horse as a living horse doctor. Perhaps in this immersive horror baptism, he can stimulate himself to find the feeling of fear.

    Of course, it is only a patient who has such a wonderful mental abnormality. He is not an "ordinary person", not just because of his brain tumor. Because before he got the disease, he was different, using the dialect of a certain place – strange coffee.

    There are many eccentricities that are not known. Although they are not at the level of obsessive-compulsive disorder, most of them are very puzzling. Let’s talk about one here: read 癖…

    His desire for reading is difficult for ordinary people to understand. For example, he will read the words on the shampoo box; for example, the manual of the household appliance, he can see the tail from the beginning; More amazing…Even the label cut on the new clothes was not missed.

    As long as something or someone will have a stake in it, he will instinctively collect all the information related to it. Moreover, he is not just reading it at will, but he still has amazing reading and memory skills. Although it is not as good as the old man Zhang Song, he has never looked back, but as long as it is something he has seen, even if it has been a long time, At least 60% can be remembered.

    “hmm…It's about the same as other games. ”After spending two minutes, I read the terms of several thousand words: "The only thing that is special is the number of the sixth paragraph…"He lowered his head slightly, holding his right elbow with his left hand, the index finger and middle finger of his right hand on his forehead, and then gently sliding down the bridge of the nose. This is his habitual action when thinking: "That is…Players who die because of a heart attack or mental illness are not related to their company. ”He seems to sum up the general thoughts.

    Don't feel can not rule out this clause is the dream company deliberately do gimmicks, he before the official website to see the game settings, the game's biggest selling point is the concept of "fright value", through the light brain and the function of the game module, to achieve the player's heartbeat, pulse, blood pressure, brain response and other real-time monitoring, in order to measure the If the player's intimidation value in the game exceeds the critical point in an instant, it will be forced to disconnect the nerve connection and immediately go offline. If the player's physical condition is seriously abnormal, such as heartbeat after the line is down, suffocation, etc., the game compartment will notify the ambulance as soon as possible. Anyway, all neural connection networks are connected to the police and emergency departments. According to this design, the possibility of scaring people should be small.

    After clicking on it, I heard the system prompt: [You are the first time to log in to the game, please enter the nickname used in the game. 】

    The input area appears on the screen, and some restrictions are written next to it. For example, the nickname should be more than four bytes, and no swear words or sensitive words can be used. In the light and brain era, such restrictions are more thorough, the system's intelligence and calculus ability is so high that it is creepy. "It" only needs a harmonious lexicon, even a general category, and can play its own reasoning ability and limit it. Any edge-bounce behavior. For example, the name of the big stem, or the symbol behind the FUC, plus a K, these anti-harmony means is useless for the fourth generation of light brain. More than a decade ago, there were concerns that the AI ​​of such computers might in turn attack and enslave humans, but so far, there is still no reliable factual basis to support this claim.

    In short, the intelligence of the light brain is very strong, and to what extent it is strong, the post-document will also add…

    [After the test is completed, the nickname is "crazy", you can use it, please confirm. 】

    The unnamed real name is very secluded and should be used. However, he uses "madness" to replace "the seal". First, he does not want to use the real name directly. Second, he also has some self-deprecating meaning.

    After confirming the point, the system voices: [Next will be a novice tutorial, the tutorial is limited to complete, the script is randomly generated, after the completion will receive the corresponding initial reward. Please note that the results of the novice tutorial will not affect the initial attributes of your character, only the rewards are different. If you interrupt the tutorial due to excessively high levels of frightening, disconnected actively, leaving the game console, etc., you will not be able to continue the original script the next time you enter the game, and the system will generate a new tutorial for you. 】

    After listening to the prompts, he reached out and pressed the confirmation option. Who knows that his finger just touched the icon on the touch screen, and the entire elevator room suddenly became dark.

    The next second, a sound, and the mechanized system voice is very different, the moment is like an old witch: "Welcome to the thriller…"

    The voice just fell, and there was no sign in the elevator. Then, the black box that reached out and did not see the five fingers moved and slowly sank down.
