Chapter 21 New CD Game, Black Town

Chapter 21 New CD Game, Black Town
"I didn't expect that the game on this disc would update automatically!"

Su Ming's eyes lit up.

I originally thought that the CD game just happened to match the content of his first horror copy.

This allowed him to gain a huge intelligence advantage in the first copy.

In his subsequent copies, it was difficult for him to gain the huge advantage like in the first copy.

But now it seems that the situation is better than he imagined.

"In that case, does this mean that this disc is also a game prop?"

Thinking of this, he ejected the CD-ROM drive, took out the CD, and wanted to see if the horror game would give any identification results.

However, the horror game didn't react at all.

He tried to put the CD into his prop column and succeeded at once.

The introduction of the horror game on the disc also appeared successfully.

[Props: Game CD]

[Level: Unknown]

[Description: This is a disc with a game burned on it. It seems to have no use other than playing the game.]

"Wow, it can even predict the contents of the next dungeon. How can you say it's useless?"

"Redefinition doesn't do any good, does it?"

It's a good thing that the CD can be put into a backpack. At least you don't have to worry about it being lost for ridiculous reasons such as a thief breaking into the house.

Since the CD can still be used, other things can be put aside for the time being.

Play the game first and see what the next copy contains.

The optical drive reads the disc.

A small town with gloomy tones appears on the game screen. On the street, pedestrians have pale skin and creepy smiles on their faces. In the dark alleys, there are pairs of scarlet eyes and twisted and weird figures that are looming in it.

Four large blood-red characters appeared above the screen: "Black Town".

Several options appear below the title: New Game, Load Game, Achievement Statistics, Game Settings, and Exit Game.

Because it was my first time playing, the loading game was greyed out and unavailable for selection.

He clicked on the "New Game" option.

Entering the game, you will see the familiar pixel style.

The picture shows a bus full of people, about twenty or thirty of them.

[You are a tourist in the Montenegro tour group. You have just finished a three-day trip and are on your way back to continue being a social animal...]

Su Ming thought that this probably corresponded to other players. Since it was a stand-alone game, they were all plot characters.

What was different from last time was that he found that his character had two more props.

They were a pistol and a coin.

It just corresponds to the two items in his backpack.

"That's great. It also allows me to try out the effects of the props in advance."

Suddenly, the picture shook.

The driver's dialog box appears: "Damn! What's going on?"

Tourists: “Ah———”

The bus stopped.

The driver got out of the car to check, and a moment later he got back in and announced, "Damn it! The gas tank is all leaking! There's something wrong with the tires too!"

Tourist: “What should I do?”

Driver: "Fortunately, there is a small town here. Let's get off the car first and see if it can be repaired in the town. If not, we can only stay in the town first. Don't panic, I will call other cars from the company to pick you up."

So, a group of pixelated people including Su Ming got off the car one after another.

During the first play, Su Ming did not do anything out of the ordinary. He planned to follow the plot first and learn as much as possible about the game.

He was even more serious and careful than the last time he planned "Hotel Rebirth".

After all, I really know it this time.

The content in the game is likely to be the same as his next copy.

The more you know in advance, the more relaxed you will be when you get to the dungeon.

After entering the town, the driver asked around for where to get his car repaired. Tourists treated the town as a tourist attraction and started to walk around the town in groups. Su Ming was too busy to go anywhere and could only go with one person, so he chose to go with the driver to find a place to get his car repaired...

Later, the car could not be repaired for a while, so they needed to stay in the town temporarily. The driver also contacted the company and asked the company to send other buses to pick them up. During this period, all kinds of strange things happened in the town, including strange townspeople, missing tourists, tragic deaths of tourists, and monsters that appeared at night...

After a day of sightseeing.

In the end, with the help of a pistol, Su Ming avoided several crises and fled the town with the driver. As for the other tourists, none of them were left behind and they all stayed in the town.

【Achieved: Escape Ending! 】

Su Ming said with emotion: "This time, I relied on the power of the perfect-level props to rush through it."

"If I didn't have this pistol, I would have died several times."

This time the protagonist's state is very similar to his, that is to say, even if he knew nothing and directly participated in the horror game, the ending would probably be the same.

Use the bullets in the pistol to help yourself pass the level.

"But if you play like this, the evaluation probably won't be too high, and the reward you get might not even be worth the bullet consumption."

He returned to the main interface, clicked to load the game, and started from his previous save point, trying various other options to increase his understanding of this copy.

……

……

In between the raids on the black town.

Su Ming also tried various methods to learn more about the horror game.

The horror game has currently undergone three rounds of internal testing and one round of public testing.

There were very few players participating in the first three rounds of internal testing, probably only about tens of thousands of people.

Since this public beta, the number of people participating in the game has increased, reaching an exaggerated number of hundreds of millions.

And he is one of these hundreds of millions of people.

The sudden appearance of so many players did not cause much chaos in society.

Because the rewards of the thriller game do not increase the player's power to a very high level.

Su Ming achieved a perfect clearance of the nightmare level, but he only gained a doubled physical fitness enhancement and a more powerful pistol.

These can't make any waves in the face of real modern military.

Those supernatural powers are simply not accessible to players who are new to horror games.

Therefore, society as a whole is still very stable.

Su Ming was very satisfied with this: "It's better to have some stability! At least I don't have to live in fear every day."

As for transactions between players, the horror game does not provide players with a trading platform.

If players want to trade with each other, the only way is face to face.

Because there are too many new players recently, various trading markets between players have appeared in various places.

There are several in Lucheng.

The largest of these is the officially organized "Lucheng Local Players Exchange Meeting."

Su Ming: "Well, maybe I can go to the rally and see if there is anything I need."

Seeing so many players, he no longer worried about his player identity being exposed.

If we keep up this momentum and conduct two more public beta tests, we will have players per capita worldwide.
