Chapter 1 Strange Phone

"Oh, I shouldn't have drunk too much yesterday."

Antony got up from the bed and pressed his head which was uncomfortable because of the hangover.

Then he walked to the water dispenser, got himself a glass of warm water, and drank it in one breath.

The warm water flew through his mouth and into his stomach, making him feel much better.

He went to the bathroom, simply washed his face and rinsed his mouth, and was about to go back to bed and have a good sleep again.

With a sound of vibration, the phone screen on the bedside table lit up,

Antony stopped walking at once.

"Eh?"

Didn't the phone turn off automatically when it ran out of power last night?

Why did it turn on all of a sudden?

It was so strange.

Confused, Antony walked to the bedside table and picked up his phone.

When he picked up the phone, he found that the screen picture was not the one he was familiar with, but a few blood stains on the dark background. It was a kind of indescribable weirdness, and then a line of bright red words appeared.

"World information loading completed."

"Terror game opened successfully at the beginning."

"Do you know the world you live in indeed?"

"The world you live in is changing dramatically. In this treacherous world, survival has become the most urgent task at present. Fortunately, you have been chosen as a player. The death sword is hanging high. Try to live, new player."

"What? Is my phone got a virus?"

Normally, it won't start if it's out of power. Am I wrong?

Looking at the strange screen of his mobile phone, Antony decided to turn off the power of his mobile phone by pressing the power key on the right side,

However, he pressed a dozen times, but the phone still didn't respond. It was still a strange background.

All of a sudden, the edge of the black screen was covered with blood, and a new blood character appeared from the center.

"Quest for new players open"

"Task: Strange bathroom"

"Task description: Every time it's quiet at night, your bathroom often makes some strange sounds, and under the interference of unknown power, this situation is more and more frequent, and it will also happen in your bathroom in the daytime. Driven by curiosity, you decide to find out the truth."

"Task request: Explore the strangeness of the bathroom. The deadline is midnight tonight."

"Note for new players: 30 minutes later may be a good time. Remember to take your phone with you when doing the task."

"The reward for completing the task: 60 days of lifespan."

"Task failure punishment: You won't want to know."

The bright red words slowly disappeared from the screen when Antony finished reading.

The bloodstains under the black background also slowly disappeared, and the light was extinguished.

The screen was completely dark. Antony pressed the power key again, but the phone didn't respond at all. It seemed that it had returned to the power-off state.

A sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of Antony's mouth.

"Well, I don't know which hacker is so idle and has such a whimsical virus invasion."

Then, Antony put the phone on the bedside table, covered himself with the quilt, and continued to sleep.

The phone he had just used was just his spare phone, which was usually used to play games and relax. Occasionally, he chatted with others. Except for a few games and chatting software, there was no binding of his bank card and loan account on the phone.

Even if it was infected with the virus, it would only reveal part of his privacy. It wouldn't cause much trouble for him.

All of a sudden, Antony, who was sleeping in the bed, trembled and woke up.

At this time, a line of words suddenly appeared in his mind.

"Your brain has sensed the danger, so it can control your body to tremble and wake you up."

"Your eyes have also found something unusual and you have a sense of crisis. Under the pressure of the crisis, your eyes have awakened the danger foreboding ability and your eyesight has increased."

"What?"

Looking at the words that appeared in his mind, a question mark slowly appeared in Antony's heart.

He opened his eyes, sat up from the bed, and shook his head.

The words in his mind stay still

"What? It's not an illusion."

Just as Antony was confused, the words in his mind changed again.

After the original line of words disappeared, a new paragraph of words popped out from its original place.

"After your eyes predict the danger and the analysis of the brain's processing of the information, you will die in half an hour due to doing nothing."

"Your brain knows what kind of person you are, so it's going to show you what it knows from your eyes."

"???"

Before Antony could react, the bright light suddenly dimmed and he saw wisps of black long hair coming at him. The black hair slowly gathered towards his neck like a living creature, twined around his neck in circles, and then suddenly tightened.

Suddenly, the black hair in front of him disappeared, and the familiar light came back to his eyes.

"Whoosh! Whoosh"

Sweat broke out on his forehead. It seemed that his strength had been drained all of a sudden. He leaned back at the bedside and gasped for breath.

Antony's heart was pounding. Because the scene just now was too real, his body did not slow down for a moment.

He stretched out his hand and rubbed his temples. After thinking about the incredible scene just now, he frowned. He sighed in his heart,

"It seems that this Terrifying game is true. This task must be done."

"Purr, purr, purr," his stomach began to growl. Antony raised his right hand and looked at the watch in his hand. It was six fourteen. There were still twenty minutes before the start of the task. He had to eat something to replenish his physical strength.

After finishing the luxurious instant noodles in ten minutes, new words appeared in Antony's mind.

"With the cooperation of your brain and eyes, you have successfully carried out the first scene simulation. The success rate of the scene simulation has increased, the efficiency of the brain information processing and analysis has increased, and the brain has awakened the ability to predict the future."

"Through the crisis just now, your stomach is speeding up and enhancing the efficiency of digestion. Physical strength has been restored."

"Your skin has undergone some changes because of the stimulation of the scene just now and has a certain resistance to cold."

"Your brain tells you that you can hide behind the curtain and prepare for the task in five minutes."

"It seems that my eyes can predict the danger. The small range of prediction should be five minutes."

The words that appeared in his mind and the scene simulation just now made Antony truly feel that his body had undergone some unknown changes. His eyes seemed to be able to predict the danger, and his brain could also predict the future behavior, and hint at him.

"Your eyes are a little tired after the dangerous foreboding. You can have a short rest. When you recover, it will help you in the task."

The words in his mind gradually disappeared.

After a short while, after making sure that the words in his mind would not appear for one thirty, Antony picked up his phone and walked to the bathroom.

"Horrible game? It seems that this game is true. The world is undergoing unimaginable changes. I don't know how many people have become players and can survive."

Thinking of the task prompt that had just appeared on his phone and the danger foreboding, Antony frowned slightly.

It seemed that there was something strange in the bathroom. The hair that had just appeared in the scene might be one of the key points of this task.

He wondered whether the unknown in the bathroom was the owner of the hair or the owner of the hair? How dangerous and powerful was this unknown creature? Would the existing human weapons and methods work?

It would be easy to say if there were ways and weapons.

If not, it seemed that the world would change dramatically after today.

While he was thinking.

Antony had come to the bathroom.

He opened the bathroom door and turned on the light.

In the corner of the bathroom, there was a curtain across the showerhead.

Antony walked to the corner and pulled open the curtain to cover his figure.

"According to the task description on the mobile phone and the dangerous foresight of my eyes, if I don't do the task at six thirty-four, I will be killed by the black hair at the beginning of the new task. To survive, I have to carry out the task."

Hiding in a small corner, Antony took a deep breath to adjust his body. However, after the scene simulation just now, he was a little flustered and scared. He raised his hand and looked at his watch.

At six twenty-nine.

There were still five minutes left before the task prompt.

At this moment, some words suddenly appeared in his mind.

"Your brain can feel your nervousness and uneasiness. It's adjusting your physiological function and emotions. The sense of fear is closed and your body is running normally."

All of a sudden, the panic and fear in his heart disappeared.

His heart beat steadily and his mood was calm.

His stable mood and the upcoming new quest made him extremely focused.

As time went by.

Soon, the number 60 on the second zone of the electronic watch flashed and it came at six thirty-four.

Antony breathed lightly.

The mission began.

The light in the bathroom suddenly went out, making a sizzling sound of poor contact.

After a flash of sparks, the light was completely scrapped.

The bathroom fell into darkness without any light.

Tick tack!

A drop of water fell on the floor, which was particularly abrupt in this quiet environment.

Ticktock! Ticktock! Ticktock!

More and more drops of water fell rhythmically on the floor.

Judging from the voice, it should be from the direction of the showerhead.

As more and more drops of water dropped, the sound became louder and louder, and a faint sense of coldness pervaded the whole bathroom.

Gradually, the sound of water drops turned into the clear sound of running water.

The water flow from the showerhead became larger.

At the same time, an indescribable stench spread in the air.

"Then what should I do now?"

Antony, who was hiding in the corner, tensed up.

He stared at the showerhead.

He had a strong intuition that something had appeared there.
