The words on the wall were filled with deep hatred. After the game character entered the bedroom, similar words appeared on his body.
'This curse is acceptable. As long as I don't cry, I'll be able to survive the Ziggurat.'
Han Fei memorized the location of the room but when he tried to control the character to leave, the picture on the wall changed.
The man started to bleed from his orifices. To make matters worse, the woman in the bridal gown and veil had disappeared.
Han Fei controlled the character to leave the room but at that moment, all the doors in the room closed. A woman in a bridal gown with a twisted body stood behind the character.
Her sharp nails pierced into the character's neck. She grabbed the character by the neck and raised him up.
Watching his character being killed bit by bit, not only did Han Fei not panic, he even had an enlightened expression on his face.
His gaze did not linger on the dying character but the woman in the bridal gown. He even purposely adjusted the character's position, trying to lift the veil.
After much effort, Han Fei finally saw the woman's face under the veil before the character died.
'It's really her, she's staying in Room 3 on the 1st floor of the Ziggurat!'
Staring at the woman in the bridal gown, Han Fei smiled professionally. He was happy from the bottom of his heart.
The woman in the bridal gown was his aid in the Ziggurat. With the location of the bridal gown, Han Fei could meet up with the woman directly. This would be a great help in his exploration of the Ziggurat.
"Being able to obtain this piece of information makes today's trip worthwhile."
The character dissolved into a pool of blood but Han Fei was still staring at the woman in the bridal gown on screen.
Seeing this, Zhuang Ren sucked in a cold breath. He silently nudged away from Han Fei.
The young man next to him looked fine but in reality, there was something wrong with him.
Holding the game controller, even though his character had been killed, he was still staring at the woman in the bridal gown with joy and excitement. It felt like they had known each other for a long time and the woman was his first love.
Zhuang Ren wanted to move away from Han Fei but he suddenly realized something.
Immortal Pharma's CEO said his family was trapped inside the Ziggurat and Han Fei did the same. Then could the ghost in the wedding dress that appeared on the screen really be Han Fei's family?
Looking at Han Fei in shock, Zhuang Ren asked subconsciously, "That ghost is your wife?"
"Her husband is still hanging on the wall, what kind of nonsense are you spouting?" Han Fei turned to look at Zhuang Ren. He felt that the man was indeed not normal.
It was completely dark outside. Han Fei put down the controller and prepared to leave.
"Why don't you stay here? We need to hurry and clear this game as soon as possible! "Zhuang Ren misunderstood Han Fei. He desperately wanted to see his family.
"I have other things to do tonight. If everything goes well, I'll come back tomorrow morning."
"What if it doesn't go smoothly?"
"Then you might never see me again." Han Fei was not joking. He said seriously, "Do not tell anyone about this game. Other than me, there should be other people looking for this game. That person is most likely the murderer who killed your family."
Han Fei shared his speculation, the possibility of the Butterfly being the murderer was high.
"Murderer?" Zhuang Ren's gaze shifted when he heard Han Fei.
"I've memorized your family's names and faces, I'll help you keep an eye out for them." Han Fei planned to enter the cryptic world's Ziggurat. If he ran into Zhuang Ren's family there, he would help to pass on Zhuang Ren's message and longing.
Han Fei pushed the door open and left. Just as he stepped out of Ewha Neighbourhood, he saw many passersby looking towards the east.
Han Fei also noticed the sky was not that dark that night. He turned around and saw a giant holographic screen connected to the sky at the smart city. The number 5 was written on it.
'That's … the countdown for Perfect Life's open beta? Isn't that a bit too much? '
Han Fei had been playing the Ziggurat at Zhuang Ren's home for a whole day. He finally noticed the change in Xin Lu's smart city.
Deep Space Tech and Immortal Pharma released their final update that day. The update became the first advertisement to break 100 million views on the internet.
The two giants started to make the final preparations for the game's open beta. Not only in the virtual world, it was the same in real life. All the smart cities in the smart city lit up with countdown screens. Every minute burned a ridiculous amount of money.
There were different opinions about the game online. Some people were disgusted by Perfect Life, they believed it would destroy humanity and trap them in their own dream; others had high expectations for the game. They believed its appearance was a miracle, a heaven created by humanity.
Be it resistance or embrace, no one could change the arrival of a new era. The game's open beta was probably the turning point between the old and the new.
The change of a new era often started with a small character. He would use himself as the fulcrum and before he knew it, he would slowly move the whole world.
Looking at the giant holographic screen, Han Fei was as small as an ant. He stared at it silently for a while before pulling his gaze back.
"No matter how shocked I am, it has nothing to do with me. My main task is to survive."
Han Fei did not stay for long. He took the bus back home.
After reporting his location and basic information to the police, Han Fei inspected his room. After ensuring there was no danger, he lay down comfortably inside the gaming hub.
'There is a reason for the price. This gaming hub is a hundred times more comfortable than my bed. I can sleep here in the future.' Han Fei's rented place was too small. He considered removing the bed board and replacing it with a workbench for case analysis.
Time ticked by. The closer it was to midnight, the more anxious Han Fei felt.
'The Unspeakable Ghost should hate me, after all, I've escaped from under its nose twice. If I'm in its shoes, I won't give up even if I have to stay here until the end of time. '
When the clock struck midnight, Han Fei connected all the wires, put on the gaming helmet and closed the gaming hub.
Blood descended. Han Fei's consciousness saw a city that was frozen in blood. Somewhere in the city, someone seemed to sense his arrival. A pair of scary eyes slowly opened.
The moment the eyes opened, so did Han Fei. He appeared on the second floor of the security company.
