Chapter 64
The boy's stomach growled in frustration.
He turned around, walked to the vegetable market, bought the ingredients he needed this week according to the recipe given by Yan Xuexiao, and spent 270 yuan plus condiments.
Shen Chi laboriously brought the vegetables back home, ready to save money to buy a new computer, but he was stunned when he opened the door and walked into the room. There was a computer on the table, as if he had had a dream before.
The teenager pursed his lips while looking at the lost computer. Although he didn't know why he returned it, he still used a screwdriver to unscrew the screw to replace the door lock, and put a sharp knife on himself.
He washed the rice according to the recipe, and because the beef was expensive, he only bought a small piece, but even a small piece was cut crookedly by him with different lengths and widths.
He looked at the meat he was cutting in frustration, but when he remembered the picture of beef porridge, he continued to make it, carefully cooking white porridge according to the recipe.
Because it takes a full two hours to cook the porridge, he went to the table and sat down, turned on the computer and went to the website.
He still appeared on the home page of the stand-alone area. Although the stand-alone area was deserted, it was the home page after all. There were many dissatisfied messages from the stand-alone area viewers in the live broadcast room.
"Isn't it a stand-alone area?"
"I thought I clicked the wrong partition"
"Playing PUBG doesn't have to be a stand-alone game, right?"
"Can you get out without playing single player"
The teenager looked at the message and pursed his lips. His left hand still had the swelling pain from last night's infusion. He didn't open the high-level PUBG, but purchased and downloaded the stand-alone game Castle Ghost in the store.
Castle Ghost is a horror survival game that was just released yesterday. It was hailed as the best of its kind in the year after it was released for only one day. Almost all the anchors in the stand-alone area are broadcasting live. Unfortunately, none of the anchors have been able to clear the game.
Seeing him open the ghost shadow of the castle, the audience in the stand-alone area also eased a lot, and the tone changed from rejection to exhortation.
"This game is quite difficult. I haven't figured it out yet. It is recommended that streamers don't challenge this game."
"The decryption of the castle is really difficult. Several anchors I follow are stuck in the fifth level."
"+1, play it simple"
Shen Chi opened the game, and there was a burst of oppressive darkness, and the word ghost of the castle slowly appeared on the screen.
He clicked to start a new game, woke up in the basement of the old castle, and heard the faint cry of a child from upstairs. There was only a dagger and a shotgun on the dilapidated table.
"Blu-ray quality!"
"The image quality rendering is turned on at the highest level and still does not freeze. Is it convenient for the anchor to tell the computer model?"
"Aurora looks new"
"Look at the price, sorry to bother"
Because he had no backpack and could only take one weapon, he chose a shotgun without hesitation.
"I made the wrong choice at the first level"
"You should choose a dagger. Ghosts move very fast. Although a shotgun can kill you with one hit, it's not accurate at all. You can only fire one bullet at a time."
"Isn't this the sniper of PUBG?"
"...It's not the same game, okay, let's quit and start again."
After Shen Chi loaded the gun, he didn't walk out of the room directly. He shot two shots at the wall to estimate the ballistic trajectory, and then walked out of the room.
It was pitch black outside the room and he couldn't see anything clearly, and the sound of the wind from his ears blew on his eardrums, as if someone was rustling to him.
"The sound is so creepy"
"I'm afraid something will come out suddenly"
"I hope the anchor will not be scared off"
The teenager frowned. One of the main reasons why he didn't like playing horror games was that the picture was too dark, so he turned up the brightness.
"You will regret it when you turn it on. The anchor next door was so scared that she threw her mouse away. It's good that you can't see clearly."
"I'll turn around and kill right away"
"Barrage Bodyguard"
"I'm a little scared to watch what you said"
Shen Chi continued to move forward, the door of the room was locked, and he needed to find the corresponding key to explore down.
Suddenly, he heard a thud from behind. It seemed that something extremely heavy fell to the ground. He looked back and saw a headless corpse hanging from the ceiling, dripping with blood.
"Why doesn't the anchor run away!"
"I guess I was scared"
"I'm suffocating just listening to the sound"
Shen Chi passed the corpse expressionlessly and searched for the key in the room, but he searched every corner and found nothing.
He stared at the corpse for a moment and walked towards the corpse hanging from the ceiling.
It’s not without reason that Castle Ghost was rated as the best horror game of the year by reviewers. The details of the rotting corpse were made lifelike, and the bright red organs gave birth to squirming flies.
Shen Chi was unfamiliar with the game, and repeatedly groped on the corpse.
"Why are you stuck here?"
"Please bro, find it quickly"
"Don't look for it, it's in the pocket on the right side."
"I'm hiding under the covers now and don't dare to get down."
Shen Chi continued to play without anyone else, until a silver key fell out of the blood-stained clothes bag, and he opened the door with the key and walked up the stairs to the castle hall.
The hall was lit with dim candles, and there were many motionless puppets. Most of the puppets had mutilated bodies, either missing arms or legs, but they were all staring at the direction of the second floor.
The second floor is still locked by an iron gate.
Needing a four-digit code, he turned around and walked back to the hall. What he didn't notice was that the puppet's eyes were all turned towards him.
