Chapter 127

What is the horror element?
If you ask laymen to talk about it, they may think of "tentacles", "horrible-looking monsters", "human-eating monsters", "ketchup sprayed everywhere like money", "hallusion and madness", Elements of "Cult Thriller" and the like.

This level of understanding is pretty much enough for a game designer.After all, being able to perfectly integrate these elements into a horror game is enough to make the game famous.

However, the real "horror element" is not such a rigid thing.Quite the contrary, it's very pure at its core.

Arouse people's innermost fear of the unknown.

Just like Chen Entropy now.

"This is where I lived when I was a child? Impossible, why is there such a thing in my game?!"

Chen Entropy's expression was confused for a long time, and his heart was shaken.

Of course he remembered that he would recognize the town even if it was in ruins.

This is his childhood hometown in the real world.

Chen Entropy does mix private goods in the game, but most of these private goods are playing some popular memes or paying tribute to classic works.Asking him to put the map of his hometown into the game at a ratio of 1:1, he would never do such a thing.

But the small town where he lived in his childhood appeared in front of him like this, and it was in this game world after time travel.

It feels like you are playing a game and suddenly discover that some of your personal information appears in the game and is set as part of the game background.

However, the producer never asked you for a license, or even approached you.You can't help but wonder how the producers know your personal information, and whether they will do anything to threaten you in the future.

Even if you close the game, you will feel that there are countless pairs of invisible eyes watching you in the dark.They seem to be spying on everything about you, almost engulfing you.

New words appeared in Chen Entropy's mind:
"Because you witnessed an extremely familiar but shocking scene, make a sanity deduction judgment. 1d6=???, directly deduct the amount of sanity."

The surrounding time stood still, and a six-sided dice appeared in Chen Entropy's hand.

Compared to before, this time the dice did not give him a mental test at all, but directly deducted his sanity.

Chen Entropy voted 1 distractedly, and then felt as if his heart had been pinched by someone.

His sanity slipped a little to 44.This is not good news for him.

Chen Entropy rummaged through the Abyss Mall in the core of the collapse, and decisively bought a bottle of the most expensive "Qingxin Cocktail".

As long as you consume 150 points, you can recover 5 sanity points, and you can gradually restore 10 sanity points in the next 5 minutes.

A refreshing feeling like a clear spring spread along his heart, and he felt his tense nerves relieved a little.

Just when Chen Entropy wanted to continue buying other props to restore sanity, a prompt popped up on the Abyss Mall:

[Consumable medicine items in the Abyss Mall can only be purchased and used once every 12 hours. 】

"Absolutely, don't let people take drugs continuously, right?" Chen Entropy complained angrily.

It seems that in the case of extreme decline in sanity, it is unlikely that he can survive by crazy drug use.

After improving his sanity a little, Chen Entropy swung his light crossbow and slowly stepped into the town.

The landmark sign at the gate of the town was already rusted, and Chen Entropy could not clearly see the words on it under the shroud of the surrounding light red mist.

However, Chen Entropy would never admit the wrong layout of this small town.

"The grocery store at the entrance and the fresh market 100 meters away. There is also the chess and card room."

Chen Entropy walked forward cautiously, everything in front of him seemed to be the reappearance of yesterday's memories.He can be absolutely sure that this place is really where he lived when he was a child.

But the question is, why does his hometown appear in this game world?Who put it in?
The surrounding houses are rusted and look like they have been abandoned for many years.The streets shrouded in a reddish mist were empty, and the grocery stores and fresh markets were already empty, with rotting substances that didn't look like commodities at all on the counters.

Chen Entropy walked forward, and finally stopped in front of a dilapidated Internet cafe.

This was his favorite place to go when he was a child, and it was also the opportunity for him to work in a game company.

In his time, the "Minors Game Protection Act" had been established.Minors' game time is strictly limited, and guardians can monitor children's game screens in real time.

It is precisely because of this that Chen Entropy often sneaked to this Internet cafe to play when he was a child.

The owner of the Internet cafe seems to be a middle-aged uncle in his early 40s, but he plays games every day like a naughty boy, and at the same time scoffs at this kind of boring game bill.

What he said most often was: "When I was in middle school, I couldn't do anything well except play StarCraft, so I could still graduate from college and get a beautiful and well-behaved wife?"

With his acquiescence, Chen Entropy and other friends would come to play games every now and then.And whenever a parent wants to report this Internet cafe, the mayor will come to act as a peacemaker, saying that he and the uncle owner of the Internet cafe have been friends for decades, and persuade everyone to make things trivial.

Memories from the past kept appearing in his mind, and Chen Entropy patted his head, trying to calm himself down.

I don't know if he thinks there may be clues in the Internet cafe, or just recalling the past, Chen Entropy carefully pushed open the glass door, ready to go in and check it out.

More than a dozen old computers that seemed to be from the previous era were neatly arranged in the room, and there were several game warehouses beside it, but the Internet cafe was also empty.

The moment Chen Entropy walked into the Internet cafe, one of the computers suddenly lit up, and slightly monotonous electronic music slowly came out from the speakers.

Along with the mosaic-quality opening animation, a spherical pattern appeared on the screen.The top half of the sphere is red and the bottom half is white, separated by a black line and a small black circle.

"This is." Chen Entropy frowned, and found that the pattern on the screen was a bit familiar.

If he remembers correctly, this was the first stand-alone game he came into contact with when he was a child.

This is a pet raising battle game that was very popular a hundred years ago.Players have to manipulate a trainer, capture and train strange pets in various places, and fight against others until they become the champion of the continent.

"Why is there this game?" Chen Entropy looked around for a moment, and after confirming that there were no hidden enemies around, he cautiously came to the computer.

The "Start" button flashed on the screen, as if cueing him to click on it.

"Snapped--!"

There was a crisp keyboard tapping sound, and Chen Entropy pressed the Enter key on the keyboard.
