"I believe you're still curious about whether ghosts exist in this world or not. Let's play a little game; the truth will be revealed the moment you open your eyes."
The description of the Nightmare Mission was very vague; it was unclear what he had to do, but it gave off a creepy feeling.
Based on the mission introduction, I should be playing a game, but just a game can be classified as Nightmare Mission? To complete the Normal Mission, he had worked for several hours without rest before he managed to fix all the mannequins within the time limit.
Looking through his phone, Chen Ge became more and more curious. Should I give it a try?
As soon as this thought appeared, it spread uncontrollably in his mind like a vine.
Nightmare Mission has the highest reward, and I have no confidence in completing the Normal Mission and Easy Mission for the three missions that spawned today, so I might as well take the risk.
If he could not survive the off-season, the Haunted House would close down. Chen Ge knew his current situation very well. Now that there was hope, he naturally did not want to let go of any chance.
It's decided then. After all, I'll have to experience the Nightmare Mission sooner or later.
Sitting up in bed, Chen Ge clicked on the last mission.
"Are you sure you want to accept the Nightmare Mission? After you accept it, it might trigger an unknown situation. "
"I'm sure."
The screen flickered, and the real mission information appeared.
"To see the other world, you need extraordinary courage, extraordinary luck, and a little help. The game is called You in the Mirror. Enter the bathroom alone at 2: 04 am, lock the bathroom door, turn off the lights, and face the mirror. Light a candle between you and the mirror. Then close your eyes, focus, and murmur your name.
"Anything can happen in the dark. Maybe an unfamiliar face will appear in the mirror, maybe a pair of crimson eyes will peek at you from the corner, or maybe blood will seep out from the cracks of the wall and the door. All you have to do is not move and stand quietly in front of the mirror."
"The mission will be automatically completed in half an hour, but the prerequisite is that no matter what happens in that time, you cannot open your eyes."
After reading the mission introduction, Chen Ge's heart chilled. Is there really another world that normal people can't see?
It was still early before 2: 04 am, so he wasn't in a hurry to leave. Instead, he went online to search for information related to the game.
It did not take long for Chen Ge to find some. Some of them were plagued by bad luck due to playing this game. Some of them did not give any details, mentioning their disfigured faces several times. There were even some who disappeared from their own homes, suspected to have been dragged into the world inside the mirror.
"Each of them is so detailed and realistic. It's like a ghost story." The more Chen Ge watched, the more curious he became. He was the owner of a Haunted House, and he spent his days trying to figure out how to scare people and how to bring the scariest experience to the visitors within a safe range. After reading the introduction of the game, he felt that a new door was opening.
"Playing a horror game alone inside a haunted house at night, just thinking about it makes me excited!"
He checked the battery on his phone and felt that it was necessary to record this historic moment.
"Later, I want to record the whole thing. If it's really that scary, perhaps I can add a new project to my haunted house." He rummaged through the cupboards to look for a candle and lighter. At 2 am, he took the things that he had prepared and went to the first-floor toilet.
The reason why he came to the first-floor toilet to play this game was because Chen Ge had given it a lot of thought. If something really scary happened during the game, he could just jump out of the window and leave.
The haunted house was dead silent at night. A young man who was willing to sacrifice his life to save electricity took the flashlight and candle and locked himself inside the cramped and cramped toilet without much hesitation.
"An enclosed and dark environment is the best at triggering fear, and the toilet is the place with the heaviest Yin energy in the whole house. Props like the mirror, the toilet door, and the sink might look normal, but they are actually the things that can bring psychological cues to people. The person who designed this game is very clever. He knows how to grasp the weakness in people's hearts and use the simplest environment to create the deepest fear. " Chen Ge had a deeper understanding of horror and horror than normal people. As he analyzed, he learned.
"Real fear does not require expensive props. I only need to magnify the anxiety in the visitor's heart, and they will be defeated by themselves." Chen Ge took a deep breath and activated the camera function on his phone. He looked at the screen and said, "I have no idea what kind of consequence this game will have, but if something happens to me, the person who finds this phone, please remember to save this video. It will be a key, a key to open the Lock of Lies."
After saying that, Chen Ge fixed the phone next to the sink. From this angle, he could record Chen Ge and the mirror opposite him at the same time.
"It's 2: 01 am, only three minutes left."
Waiting for death was scarier than death itself. In the silent toilet, any movement was magnified. As the time approached, Chen Ge's heart raced.
He looked at the time on the phone. When the minute hand pointed to four, he switched off the flashlight, lit the candle, and placed it between himself and the mirror.
The flickering flame became the only source of light in the darkness. It stood between the mirror and reality like a guiding lamp, trying to guide something out of the mirror.
Chen Ge looked at himself in the mirror and felt weird. "Has the game started?"
He slowly lowered his head, closed his eyes, and whispered his name.
"Chen Ge, Chen Ge, Chen Ge …"
Constantly chanting one's own name would slowly make one feel unfamiliar with the name. It was the same as writing a certain Chinese character over and over again. In the end, even one could not recognize the character. It was the same logic.
To prevent that from happening, every time Chen Ge said his name, he would count down to three seconds. He was also counting the time that had passed.
After all, the condition for the mission to succeed was to not open his eyes to look at anything that happened within the next half an hour.
"Alone inside a Haunted House at 2 am, lighting a candle, closing his eyes, and playing a game before the mirror. If not for the fact that I'm experiencing it myself, I wouldn't believe that someone would do something like that. "Chen Ge read his own name in his mind. He tried his best to stop himself from letting his imagination wander.
"This game is filled with psychological hints. The most difficult part is not to deal with the so-called ghosts and legends, but to restrain yourself. As long as you don't open your eyes, you should be safe. "
