Global Collapse

Chapter 331 Please close your eyes when it gets dark

You know nothing!
The only thing to do right now is to find people who participated in the game "When Darkness Falls" and ask them if they remember the identities of everyone in the game.

However, doing so seems impractical.

Gu Mian looked out the window; it was now ten minutes after the bell rang for the end of get out of class.

Even now, students are still walking towards the cafeteria one after another, and among the crowd are a few students who have finished eating in a hurry and are returning to the classroom.

Gu Mian looked out the window and said, "This instance is called 'When Darkness Falls, Please Close Your Eyes.' I think it's not just because the characters we played have played that game. Before get out of class ended, I saw a hand appear out of thin air and reach out to the person next to me. I think perhaps this game has already affected reality."

Chu Changge, who was standing next to him, also spoke up: "That's right, it's true that the characters we played did play that game, but I strongly suspect that the game 'When Darkness Falls' didn't really end. It's very likely that it was interrupted by some accident in the middle, causing the game to not be completed... And now, the game 'When Darkness Falls' is still continuing, just in a different way."

The fat man was slightly taken aback, then lowered his voice and said, "Brother Chu, you mean... a real-life version of 'Close Your Eyes When It Gets Dark'?"

"That's right," Gu Mian nodded to the fat man. "The players participating in the game are no longer limited to a table or a room. This game has swallowed up the entire area, and players are moving around the city, engaging in more advanced battles."

The fat man trembled slightly.

Games like "Werewolf" and "Werewolf" were popular for a while, and now there are many immersive experience stores and mobile apps featuring these games.

The fat man had tried a few games to keep up with the times, experiencing both mobile games and offline experience stores.

However, regardless of the game mode, the scope of operation is very small.

Offline experience stores typically only provide one room and one long table; slightly larger stores might provide a few more rooms.

Mobile games, needless to say, have their controls limited to a small screen.

But now, the game has spread throughout the entire city!
Players move between day and night, hiding among towering buildings, waiting for their chance to strike, engaging in a truly nauseating and bloody game.

"Let's figure out the rules of the game first," Gu Mian said, noticing that more and more students were coming out of the cafeteria. "If it's really like we guessed, and this is a real-life version of 'Never Say Die,' then not understanding the rules will cause us a lot of trouble."

The fat man nodded cautiously.

At this moment, Gu Mian started thinking about her deskmate, Xu Xingcheng.

Xu Xingcheng seemed very concerned about who was playing the werewolf in the game "When Darkness Falls," and Gu Mian happened to see a malicious hand emerge from under his desk, seemingly aimed at Xu Xingcheng.

Judging from this, he might have participated in that game, but Xu Xingcheng's words suggest that he did not participate in that game.

How strange...

Students were already coming up the stairs.

Gu Mian and her friends' classroom was on the third floor, in a rather inconvenient location. The students coming up from below glanced listlessly at Gu Mian and her friends on the stairwell, then turned and went up the stairs to the fourth floor, seemingly unsurprised that someone would be "standing on the street" there.

Feeling guilty, the fat man instinctively looked at Gu Mian when he saw someone coming up, only to find him seemingly lost in thought.

"Doctor?" the fat man asked, somewhat puzzled. "What are you thinking about?"

"It's nothing," Gu Mian said, coming back to his senses. Seeing more and more people returning to the teaching building, he continued, "Anyway, let's find the three players besides us first and see if they have any clues. Also, the game 'When Darkness Falls' may not only involve the six of us, but also the dungeon natives. If we want to understand the game rules, it's more reliable to ask them, but we should be careful of them."

As she spoke, several more people passed by. Gu Mian paused for a moment, and only continued after they had all left: "I suspect that real ghosts have infiltrated the werewolves. If we go to contact the natives of the 'Nightfall' instance, we might inadvertently encounter real ghosts..."

“Also,” Gu Mian glanced out the window and said, “it’s getting dark.”

The sun had completely set, and darkness gradually enveloped the entire school. The students who had been running towards the cafeteria were now returning towards the teaching building.

The last rays of the setting sun were barely visible, and the streetlights on both sides had been turned on, illuminating the once dark campus once again.

Gu Mian withdrew her gaze: "This game is called 'When Darkness Falls, Please Close Your Eyes.' Chu Changge and I had some experience with this type of game before the global game started, so we know the general rules. What about you?"

Gu Mian asked the fat man.

The fat man nodded quickly: "I've played it before. I remember that as soon as it gets dark, the werewolves can kill people..."

This is an absolutely real game.

In the real night, werewolves can kill civilians by any means necessary.

“So nighttime is the most dangerous time for ordinary players,” Chu Changge said quietly, “Be careful.”

The fat man was a little scared: "How about we stay together all night? Generally speaking, a werewolf can only kill one person a night. If the three of us stay together, if it kills one of us, the other two will definitely know our identities. As long as we stay together, the werewolf won't dare to make a move easily, right?"

The fat man looked at Gu Mian and Chu Changge very seriously, but suddenly noticed that the expressions of the two people in front of him were a little strange.

They were almost all expressionless. Dim light shone in from the window, casting flickering shadows on their expressionless faces. Looking at the person in front of him, the fat man shivered.

What's wrong with these two people...?

The fat man took a step back in fear.

Just as he hesitated and stepped back, Chu Changge, who had been expressionless, suddenly opened his mouth and uttered a ghostly voice: "How can you be sure that neither of us are werewolves?"
