The Only Player in Infinite Terror

"Once again, I'm being used as a chicken to be slaughtered for the monkeys to see..." Ling Qi smiled knowingly.

When Zhang Jie saw that Ling Qi was not only unafraid but also laughed, he couldn't help but wonder if the kid had gone mad.

"Kid, aren't you afraid I'll shoot you dead?" Zhang Jie grabbed Ling Qi by the collar and pressed the dark muzzle of the gun against Ling Qi's forehead, snarling.

"Hehe, if you can do it, why not give it a try? It's just a game." Ling Qi smiled calmly: "Death isn't scary. Death is like a cool summer night, allowing one to sleep peacefully without worry..."

Ling Qi didn't care at all. In the hundreds and thousands of games during the past two and a half closed beta tests, he had done things that were even more arrogant and outrageous than what he was doing now.

But Zhang Jie never shot him, let alone injured him or hypnotized him to let him die by trickery.

All I can say is that this is truly a testament to the author Z's reputation as a good person; the quality is off the charts.

Of course, it's also possible that the restrictions imposed on Zhang Jie by the main deity were stricter than imagined.

"Brother, brother, don't get agitated. For the sake of us being fellow countrymen, please spare his life." The white-collar youth was very kind-hearted and took the lead in standing up to plead for Ling Qi.

With him taking the lead, another bespectacled, busty beauty also spoke up to plead for Ling Qi, saying, "Yes, brother, we are in a dangerous situation now. More people mean more strength. There's no need to start fighting amongst ourselves right from the beginning."

Zhang Jie secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Now that he had a way out, he released Ling Qi and said coldly, "You've escaped with your life, kid. If killing a teammate wouldn't cost me 1000 reward points, I would have shot you dead."

He gave Ling Qi a meaningful look: "As reincarnators, we can only enter the world of horror movies again and again to complete the tasks issued by the damned God. Of course, we can also get rewards for completing tasks or killing some monsters."

"You can look at the watches on your wrists. For example, in this horror movie, you get 1 reward point for every ten zombies you kill; and 100 reward points for every crawler you kill."

"There are other ways to get rewards, such as explaining the rules to you newbies like this now. According to the rules of the main god, I will be rewarded with 100 reward points."

"For example, you will receive 1000 reward points every time you return to the Main God Space after completing a mission alive."

"Some people may still see this as a game, but I must tell you that if you die in a horror movie, you really die."

"But you newbies are lucky. This time, the story world is Resident Evil 1. The missions are relatively simple. You won't encounter any insurmountable monsters. Even if you die, it will be an easy death."

"Of course, you know what? In some horror movies, even if you want to die, it's not that simple. Before you die and find relief, you'll be tortured by the demons and monsters in those movies, making it impossible for you to die."

"Alright, that concludes the new employee onboarding training presentation. The horror movie is about to start in a few minutes. Now, let's move on to the Q&A session. Ask your questions as soon as possible."

After saying that, the young man, whose face was etched with several hideous and terrifying scars, took a deep drag on the cigarette in his hand and then flicked off the ash.

"I have a question." The large-breasted beauty with glasses raised her hand to indicate: "My name is Zhan Lan, Zhan as in Zhan Tianyou, and Lan as in the mountain breeze. Before coming here, I was a writer."

"Brother, what's your surname? I've noticed you've mentioned reward points several times. I'm guessing reward points are like the currency here, right? I just wonder what you can buy with them?"

The black-haired youth smiled approvingly: "My name is Zhang Jie, you can also call me Brother Jie."

"Not bad, they realized the importance of reward points so quickly. It seems that the new recruits sent by the main god this time are of high quality."

"You guessed right, the reward points in the main god are equivalent to money in the real world."

"But unlike money, reward points can buy almost anything you can imagine."

"Everything?" the white-collar youth suddenly interjected excitedly. "My name is Zheng Zha, and I'm a manager at a state-owned enterprise. Brother Jie, can reward points really buy everything?"

This time, Zhang Jie wasn't angry about being interrupted. He calmly nodded and said, "That's right, everything, such as gold, diamonds, and all kinds of weapons."

"For example, you've all seen Spider-Man movies, right? The Supreme God has a type of exchange called bloodline, and Spider-Man bloodline is one of them."

"The explanation for this exchange is that it will allow the exchanger to have a mutated gene bloodline like the protagonist of the movie Spider-Man, increasing intelligence by 20 points, mental strength by 20 points, cell vitality by 50 points, nerve reaction speed by 100 points, muscle strength by 100 points, and immunity strength by 150 points, and also come with the spider web skills like the protagonist of the movie."

"When I first saw these enhancement items that could be exchanged to turn people into superhumans, I laughed so hard. For example, the six basic attributes such as intelligence, mental strength, and muscle strength require 10 reward points to directly enhance by the main god, while the average of the six basic attributes of an ordinary person is around 100 points."

"We get 1000 reward points for surviving each horror movie, which can be used to double one of our attributes!"

"Changing the Spider-Man bloodline only requires 2,000 reward points, while enhancing the same number of attributes requires nearly 4,000 reward points. Isn't that incredibly cost-effective?"

"Unfortunately, each person can only exchange for one bloodline. Exchanging for multiple bloodlines may cause conflicts, and could even lead to death by exploding."

Hearing this, Ling Qi silently complained in his heart. Don't even mention that Spider-Man bloodline that's already been joked about. It's one thing that the bloodline doesn't have spider sense, but as a B-grade bloodline, it only adds 390 attribute points, which is not as good as a vampire werewolf's bloodline.

But after his rant, he asked knowingly with amusement, "Brother Jie, you must be a veteran who's lived through several horror movies, right? You should be able to come up with two thousand reward points."

"You seem like an ordinary person, maybe a little stronger and faster, not like someone who's had a bloodline swapped."

Hearing this, Zhan Lan chimed in, "Yeah, Brother Jie, did you exchange your bloodline? I remember in the movies, Spider-Man's webs are much stronger and tougher than steel wire. With this kind of bloodline, the chances of surviving in dangerous horror movie worlds are definitely much greater."

Zhang Jie smiled wryly and flicked off his cigarette ash: "That's because I didn't want to exchange for the bloodline. Of course I wanted to."

"However, in addition to reward points, exchanging bloodlines also requires consuming something called side quests."

"Spider-Man Bloodline requires a B-grade side quest. Where would I get one? I've only ever seen it as a reward in a horror movie called A Nightmare on Elm Street. You kill that terrifying dream demon Freddy Krueger, and the whole team gets a B-grade horror side quest plus 5,000 reward points."

Seemingly recalling some horrific memory, the man, who had always appeared as a tough guy, was now filled with fear and resentment: "Damn it, is this mission for humans? Everyone's dead, including the veterans, everyone except me, the newbie!"
